Based on the amount that your friend will be paid every quarter and the amount he will receive at the end of 6 years, the minimum amount he should take is $889,616.

<h3>What amount is the minimum your friend should accept?</h3>

The amount your friend will receive is constant so this is an annuity. It is an annuity due because it comes at the start of the period.

The minimum amount your friend should take is:

= Present value of annuity due + Present value of end of 6 year payment

The period is:                                                  The rate is:
= 6 years x 4 quarters                                     = 8% / 4 quarters

= 24 quarters                                                   = 2% per quarter

The minimum amount is:

= (Annuity x Present value of Annuity Due interest factor, 2%, 24 periods) + (500,000 x Present value factor, 2%, 24 periods)

= (30,000 x 19.2922) + (500,000 x 0.6217)

= $889,616

You and your friends have decided to build a skateboard ramp behind your house. You have already purchased $500 in materials and
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Hand saw is cheaper.

Explanation:

Given:

Material cost = $500

Electric saw cost rent per hour = $20

Building hour from electric saw = 6 hour

Building hour from hand saw = 15 hour

Time off pay from job = $8/hour

Computation of total cost from Electric saw :

Total cost from Electric saw = Material cost + Renting cost of electric saw + Time of from job

Total cost from Electric saw = $500 + (6 × $20) + (6 × $8)

Total cost from Electric saw = $500 + $120 + $48

Total cost from Electric saw = $668

Computation of total cost from hand saw :

Total cost from hand saw = Material cost + Time of from job

Total cost from hand saw = $500 + (15 × $8)

Total cost from hand saw = $500 + $120

Total cost from hand saw = $620

Hand saw is cheaper.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: $172,000

Explanation:

Its a little bit of a trick question throwing in the Debs that they want to sell for the month.

That figure is irrelevant because we are dealing with fixed costs so the company will still incur them regardless of what they sell.

The components of total budgeted fixed selling and administrative expenses are,

Advertising

Executive Salaries

Depreciation on office equipment and,

Others

Those are the only figures that should concern you. Adding them up would give us,

= 50,500 + 60,500 + 20,500 + 40,500

= $172,000

The total budgeted fixed selling and administrative expenses for February is $172,000

Ksju [112]

Answer:

i =0.050713..     or

approximately \ 5.0713..\%

Explanation:

Assume an investment of $1.00

First Simple Bank:

Amount after 6 years = 1 + PRT

= 1 + 1(0.064)(10)  

= 1.64

 

Complex Bank:

1*(1+i)^{10}  = 1.64

Take 10th root of both sides

( (1+i)^ {10})*(\frac{1}{10} ) = 1.64^{\frac{1}{10}}

1+i = 1.050713..

i =0.050713..

or

approximately \ 5.0713..\%
