Llana [10]

Answer:

maximum profit = $7500

so correct option is c $7500

Explanation:

given data

mean = 500

standard deviation = 300

cost = $10

price = $25

Inventory salvaged = $5

to find out

What is its maximum profit

solution

we get here maximum profit that is express as

maximum profit = mean × ( price - cost ) ..................................1

put here value in equation 1 we get maximum profit

maximum profit = mean × ( price - cost )

maximum profit = 500 × ( $25 - $10 )

maximum profit = 500 × $15

maximum profit = $7500

so correct option is c $7500

Country A has a population of 1,000, of whom 800 work 8 hours a day to make 128,000 final goods. Country B has a population of 2

algol [13]

Answer:

a) Productivity of country A = 20 goods per hour

Productivity of country B = 25 goods per hour

Real GDP per person for country A = 128 goods per person

Real GDP per person for country B = 135 goods per person

b) Country B is better off

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

For country A

Population = 1,000

Number of workers = 800

Number of working hour per day = 8

Final goods = 128,000

For country B

Population = 2,000

Number of workers = 1,800

Number of working hour per day = 6

Final goods = 270,000

Now,

(a) The Productivity is given as

= [ Total Output ÷ Total Productive Hours ]

Thus,

Productivity of country A

= [ 128,000] ÷ [ 800 × 8 ]

= 20 goods per hour

Productivity of country B

= [ 270,000 ] ÷ [ 1800 × 6 ]

= 25 goods per hour

and,

Real GDP per person = [ Final goods ] ÷ [ Population ]

Real GDP per person for country A

= 128000 ÷ 1000

= 128 goods per person

Real GDP per person for country B

= [ 270000 ] ÷ 2000

= 135 goods per person

(b) Since,

The Real GDP per person for country B is greater than the Real GDP per person for country A

Therefore,

Country B is better off

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

=E7*C2/2

Explanation:

The interest expense will be the carrying value of the bond times the effective interest rate.

On cell C8 we have the interest expense

On E7 we have the carrying value which is the outstanding balance.

Then, on C2 we got the effective rate

As this is an annual formula, we must divide by two to convert to semiannual rate.

You were hired as a consultant to Quigley Company, whose target capital structure is 35% debt, 10% preferred, and 55% common equ

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

8.1%

Explanation:

Firstly, let look at the formula for calculating weighted average cost of capital (WACC):

WACC = (D/A) x r_D x (1-t) + (E/A) x r_E + (PE/A) x r_PE, where:

A: Market value of company asset;

D: Market value of company debt;

E: Market value of company equity;

PE: Market value of company preferred equity;

r_D: cost of debt;

r_E: cost of equity/retained earnings;

r_PE: cost of preferred equity;

t: tax rate

Putting all the numbers together, we have:

WACC = 35% x 6.5% x (1-25%) + 55% x 10.5% + 10% x 6% = 8.1%
