postal express is considering the purchase of a new sorting machine. the sales quote consists of quarterly payments of $37,200 f

Cloud [144]

The five-year sales quote includes quarterly payments of $37,200 at a 7.6% interest rate. The price of the acquisition is $614,184.40.

<h3>Do you mean by PMT payment?</h3>

PMT stands for "payment," therefore the name of the function. A PMT method can estimate your monthly payments, for instance, if you are looking for a $30,000 car loan with a two-year term and an annual interest rate of 7%.

<h3>In the fv formula, what is PMT?</h3>

PV = present value, and FV=PMT(1+i)((1+i)N - 1)/i Future Value (FV) Payment per period (PMT) I = percent per period interest rate N is the number of cycles.

Quarterly Payment = PMT = $37,400

Interest Rates = r = 7.6% per year = 0.076 per year = 0.076 / 4 = 0.019 per quarter

Number of years = 5 years

Number of Payment = n = 5 years x 4 quarters per year = 20 quarters

PV = PMT x (1 - [1 / (1 +r)^n]) / r

PV = $37,200 x (1 - [1 / (1 +0.019)^20]) / 0.019

PV = $614,184.40

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Firm A is operating at full capacity, if its sales keep increasing, then t will need to invest to expand its production capacity. Since firm B is operating below full capacity level, if its sales keep increasing it will have some spare production capacity it can use before operating at full capacity.

Therefore firm A will need to invest in an expansion of its production capacity while firm B can keep operating without new investments.

At the end of the period, the balance left in the factory overhead account is equal to the

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

d.total factory overhead cost variance.

Explanation:

In manufacturing accounting, at the beginning of the period, manufacturing overheads (i.e. costs other than Direct Material and Direct Labor) has been applied to Work-in-process using a predetermined overhead rate. At the end of the period, if the manufacturing overhead account shows a debit balance, that signifies that overhead has been under-applied (i.e. the manufacturing overhead cost applied to work in process is <u>less </u>than the actual manufacturing overhead cost for the period), and contrariwise if the manufacturing overhead account shows a credit balance, it means the overhead is over-applied (i.e. the manufacturing overhead cost applied to work in process is <u>more </u>than the actual manufacturing overhead cost for the period). In any case this balance warrants an adjustment to close out the books, by transferring it to the cost of goods sold account.
