3 0

The time required from simple interest on a principal of $4,500.00 at an interest rate of 22% per year is 4.55 years (about 4 years 7 months).

<h3>Simple Interest</h3>

Given Data

Principal = $4,500

Interest = 22%

Final Amount = $4,500*2 = $9,000

Equation:

t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 22%/100 = 0.22 per year,

then, solving our equation

t = (1/0.22)((9000/4500) - 1) = 4.55

t = 4.55 years

Leona [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Revenue $540,000

less: Salaries for drivers (390,000)

Fuel expense (54,000)

insurance (74,000)

Division line (44,000)

Net loss (22,000)

If division is eliminated the income would increase by $22,000

So it should be eliminated.

2) Decrease in income = $600,000 - ($540,000+$22,000)

= $38,000

3) What is the minimum amount of revenue required = 600,000 - 38,000 = $562,000

The cost-benefit principal states that

REY [17]

Cost-benefit principle would state that you would only take an action if the benefit outweighs the cost.

For example: It may cost me $5 to drive to work, but I make $50 for showing up, I would go because the benefit I get outweighs the cost and I am better off going than staying at home.

The Alpine House, Inc., is a large retailer of snow skis. The company assembled the information shown below for the quarter ende

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the cost of goods sold:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory

COGS= 30,000 + 100,000 - 40,000

COGS= 90,000

Now, the number of skis sold:

Units sold= 150,000/750= 200 units

Traditional income statement:

Sales= 150,000

COGS= (90,000)

Gross profit= 60,000

Total selling expense= (50*200 + 20,000)= (30,000)

Total administrative expense= (10*200 + 20,000)= (22,000)

Net operating income= 8,000

Contribution format income statement:

Sales= 150,000

Total variable cost= (90,000 + 50*200 + 10*200)= (102,000)

Contribution margin= 48,000

Total fixed selling expense= (20,000)

Total fixed administrative expense= (20,000)

Net operating income= 8,000

A company currently pays a dividend of $2.8 per share (D0 = $2.8). It is estimated that the company's dividend will grow at a ra

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Intrinsic value: 53.41 dollars

Explanation:

First, we use the CAPM model to know the value of the stock

$Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)$

risk free 0.085

premium market =(market rate - risk free) = 0.045

beta(non diversifiable risk) 1.3

$Ke= 0.085 + 1.3 (0.045)$

Ke 0.14350

Now we need to know the present value of the future dividends:

D0 = 2.8

D1 = D0 x (1+g) = 2.8 * 1.23 = 3.444

D2 3.444 x 1.23 = 4.2361200

The next dividends, which are at perpetuity will we solve using the dividned grow model:

$\frac{divends}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value$

In this case dividends will be:

4.23612 x 1.07 = 4.5326484

return will be how return given by CAPM and g = 7%

plug this into the Dividend grow model.

$\frac{4.5326484}{0.1435 - 0.07} = Intrinsic \: Value$

value of the dividends at perpetity: 61.6686857

FInally is important to note this values are calculate in their current year. We must bring them to present day using the present value of a lump sum:

$\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$
