<span>Challenge 1: Technology in the enterprise comes from consumers. Applications such as email and voicemail traditionally sprung from the enterprise itself, with user adoption neatly controlled by IT. Today a lot of technology is coming from consumers directly. Consumers who have been using Web 2.0 tools such as instant messaging, wikis, and discussion forums in their home and social life for years are now the employees expecting the same types of applications in the workplace. What's more, they expect the same levels of performance and ease of accessibility.
Add to this the rapid pace of technology, the varied forms of Web 2.0 communications, the sheer amount of content being moved, the increasing mobility of employees, realities of a global workforce (e.g., accommodating varying time zones), and the impact all of this has on your network . . . well, the challenge becomes even greater. How do enterprises keep up with this demand?</span>
Answer:
Net Capital Spending = $121
Explanation:
The Net Capital Spending is the amount of money a company spends in the acquisition of fixed assets during the year. Mathematically, it is represented as:
Net Capital Spending = Ending net fixed asset - Beginning net fixed asset + depreciation
Net Capital Spending = 550 - 471 + 42 = $121
∴ Net Capital Spending = $121
Answer:
The discount is for $86
It will be available until May 16th
Explanation:
the credit terms are 1/15, net 45
the first numebr is the discount amount, 1%
the second number is the days after billing this discount option is active, 15
net 45 means the customer can pay the nominal 8,600 within a 45 days period. After that it should renegociate the bill
The discount will be 8,600 x 1% = 8,600 x 0.01 = 86
It will be available up to 15 days after billing:
May 1st + 15 days = May 16th
Answer:
since there is not enough room here, I prepared two amortization schedules on an excel spreadsheet and I attached them
Explanation:
in order to determine the monthly payment, we can use the formula to calculate present value of an annuity:
PV = annuity payment x annuity factor
annuity payment = PV / annuity factor
- PV = $300,000
- annuity factor for 2.2% / 12 = 0.18333% and 180 periods = 153.1964438
I used an annuity calculator to determine the annuity factor
annuity payment = $300,000 / 153.1964438 = $1,958.27
we use the same formulas for the second question:
PV = annuity payment x annuity factor
annuity payment = PV / annuity factor
- PV = $300,000
- annuity factor for 2.7% / 12 = 0.225% and 360 periods = 246.54977
I used an annuity calculator to determine the annuity factor
annuity payment = $300,000 / 246.54977 = $1,216.79
