Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A friend of Mr. Richards recently won a law suit for $30 million. They can either take the payments over 10 years or settle today for cash of $25 million. Mr. Richard is optimistic that he can earn a 6% return on the money and that they should settle for $25 million today and he will invest it for them.
First, we need to find the present value of the 30 million.
To do that we need to calculate the final value.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {3,000,000*[(1.06^10)-1]}/0.06= 39,542,385
PV= FV/(1+i)^n= 39,542,385/1.06^10= 22,080,261
B) Now we know that the present value of option B is higher. One dollar today is better than one dollar tomorrow. It is better to receive the money now to invest it.
Answer:
The answer is: The ending balance in Finished Goods Inventory is $1,200
Explanation:
First we have to calculate the cost per chair produced, to do this we will find the total cost and divide by the number of chairs produced:
Units produced 100 chairs
- Direct materials $10 per unit x 100 = $1,000
- Direct labor 15 per unit x 100 = $1,500
- Variable manufacturing overhead 3 per unit x 100 = $300
- Total fixed manufacturing overhead $2,000
Total costs are $4,800 / 100 chairs = $48 per chair produced
There are 25 chairs left in finished goods inventory (FGI) = 100 - 75 = 25
The ending balance in FGI is = 25 chairs x $48 per chair = $1,200
Answer:
a. inelastic
Explanation:
<em>As you can see in the image I added, the curve that is close to a vertical is the inelastic one.</em> Inelastic means that the demand remains the same even if the prices go up or down.
I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
Answer:
The correct answer is: price elastic; increase.
Explanation:
The price elasticity of demand for apples is 1.2.
This implies that the demand relatively prices elastic.
Elastic demand means that a proportionate change in the price of apples will cause more than proportionate change in the quantity demanded.
A decrease in the price of apples will cause its quantity demanded to increase by more than proportionate. This will cause total revenue to increase.
