<span>25 years: No Payment, but total is 250000
6 months earlier. Payment of "P". It's value 1/2 year later is P(1+0.03)
6 months earlier. Payment of "P". It's value 1 year later is P(1+0.03)^2
6 months earlier. Payment of "P". It's value 1½ years later is P(1+0.03)^3
6 months earlier. Payment of "P". It's value 2 years later is P(1+0.03)^4
</span><span>We need to recognize these patterns. Similarly, we can identify the accumulated value of all 50 payments of "P". Starting from the last payment normally is most clear.
</span>
<span>P(1.03) + P(1.03)^2 + P(1.03)^3 + ... + P(1.03)^50
That needs to make sense. After that, it's an algebra problem.
P[(1.03) + (1.03)^2 + (1.03)^3 + ... + (1.03)^50]

P(<span><span>1.03−<span>1.03^51)/(</span></span><span>1−1.03) </span></span>= <span>250000</span>
Answer:
Assuming that the elimination of frequent-flyer programs would have enabled the airlines to earn higher profits and remain in business, then it would be a purely good idea for the airlines to eliminate their frequent-flyer programs.
The big question is, how much did the frequent-flyer programs cost the airlines? Would the cost-savings be sufficient to eliminate their bankruptcies? It is a known-fact that the airlines that create such programs always recover the program costs by charging higher fares.
Explanation:
The issue of airlines going bankruptcy does not seem to stem from customer-loyalty programs like the frequent-flyer programs. The root cause lies in operational and other costs that airline managements have not been able to control.
Answer:
increased; 3.33 cents
Explanation:
Fixed cost is cost that doesn't vary with unit produced. It remains constant
Average fixed cost = Fixed cost/ output
Average fixed cost last month = $900 / 3000 = $0.3
Average fixed cost this month = $900 / $2700 =$ 0.333
Average fixed cost this month ($0.333) is greater than Average fixed cost last month by $ 0.333 - $ 0.3 = $ 0.033 = 3.33 cents

Answer:
A) $7,000
Explanation:
Smith can deduct the $5,000 he donated to the church he attends. The art work donated to the local museum must be deducted at its basis, which is $2,000. Since he only purchased the painting 4 months before, the price increase will be considered a short term capital gain. Donated short term capital gain property must be deducted at basis.
The $1,000 he donated to the needy family is not deductible, since it wasn't a qualifying organization.
Answer:
C. Stay Open because Shutting Down would be More Expensive
Explanation:
Although it is quite obvious that in the short-run the business is not breaking even, based on the available options, staying open will be the best current course of action. Staying open and seeing if the trend of things change in coming fiscal years or financial periods will be better than shutting down.
Shutting down takes alot of processes that are quite expensive. Some of the processes include
- The Decision to Close
- File dissolution documents
- Cancel registrations, permits, licenses, and business names
- Comply with employment and labor laws
- Resolve financial obligations
- Maintain adequate records
These processes are expensive and since the business does not know what is causing the inability to cover its entire costs, it should investigate and find ways of increasing its total revenue to cover its entire costs before deciding to shut down completely.
a. Shut Down- Shutting Down is More Expensive
b. Exit the Industry- There isn't enough information to know exactly why the business is not making a profit
