The compound interest is 8.775%.

interest = p.

p is principal, i is the interest rate, and n is the periods. Inthis case, p is 2 and the interest is .8. (We can divide both sides by a million to make it simpler.) The number of periods is 4.

.8 = (2)(i)(4)

.8 = 8i

i = 10%. (solution)

Compound interest, again, is

interest = p [(1+r)^m - 1]

This time we can't cancel out the p by default. We must divide by 2if we want to avoid multiplying through. After doing so, we add 1to both sides.

1.4 = (1+r)^4

Log both sides.

log(1.4) = 4log(1+r)

log(1.4) / 4 = .0365 = log(1+r)

10^.0365 = 1 + r

1.08775 - 1 = r

r = 8.775%.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

$97,600

Explanation:

First, we need to get the value for uncollectible in accounts receivable

= 2% Multiplied by balance in accounts receivable as uncollectible

= 2% × 100,000

= $2,000

We will then subtract the balance above which is the uncollectible from the accounts receivable

= $100,000 - $2,000

= $98,000

The net realizable value would the be ;

= $98,000 - $400

= $97,600

Answer:

Gross profit= 131,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Last quarter, RP Enterprises earned $220,000 in sales revenue and had $90,000 cost of goods sold (at standard). RP also experienced these variances: Materials price: $2,400 F Materials quantity: $1,400 U Labor price: $2,000 U Labor quantity: $1,000 F Overhead: $1,500 F

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we use actaul costs and quantity of direct labor and direct materials. Therefore, the only estimated cost is overhead.

Gross profit= 220,000 - 90,000 + 1,500= 131,500
