Answer:
Suppose the cost per hour incurred in operating a cruise ship is 3a + b 
dollars per hour, where a and b are positive constants and v is the ship's speed in miles per hour. At what speed (in miles per hour) should the ship be operated between two ports, at a distance D miles apart, to minimize the cost? (Hint: Minimize the cost, not the cost per hour.)
<em>The speed at which the ship would maximize cost is </em>![\sqrt[3]{\frac{3a}{2b} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B3a%7D%7B2b%7D%20%7D)
Explanation:
The problem can be solved using differentiation to get the minimum value of the speed to travel between the two ports. Step by step calculation is contained in the attached images;
Answer:
B) 9.1%
Explanation:
Cost of debt is the interest rate paid by a company due to borrowing money; i.e debt from investors.
$185million in debt is the face value of debt that Westford Corporation had and the $26 million dollars of interest expense is the cost of the debt in dollars;
First, find pretax cost of debt ;
Pretax cost of debt = (Interest expense / Face value of debt )*100
= (26,000,000/ 185,000,000 )*100
=0.1405 *100
= 14.05%
Next, use pretax cost of debt to find after-tax cost of debt;
After-tax cost of debt = Pretax cost of debt (1-tax)
= 14.05% *(1-0.35)
= 9.13%
Therefore, Westford's cost of debt capital is 9.1%
The answer to the question above is "brand names cause consumers to be more sensitive to product differences" based on the result of Roberto's taste test. In the blind test, Roberto did not feel the unsavory flavor from the generic store-coke and he prefers that generic store-coke. This test proves that Roberto's taste is distracted by the brand.

Explanation:
Given values:
Solution:
= $400000000+$340000000+$4000000
= $744000000
= $744000000
+ $50000000+$6000000+$850000000
= $1,650,000,000
-
Saving account deposits, which means its amount of money increased throughout the M2 portion regular savings account. So M2 will grow
- Its increase in the number of employees may not impact the balance sheet with banks, because each bank maintains its entire cash flow
- For banks, loans are investments if they're lending money as a bank to people. So, it's on income statement asset side
