- Testing all the parts addresses any questions that customers might have about quality or performance of materials. (Option D)
<h3>
Why do manufacturers carry out testing?</h3>
Rigorous testing is usually carried out by companies to ensure that defects and hazards are detected before the products are sent out into the market.
This way, their liability from product defects is reduced or eliminated completely.

Answer:
b). 72.458 %
a). 24, 213
Explanation:
1). The second option i.e. 72.458% correctly measures the variance percentage brought in the dependent variable(regressed the quantity demanded) by manipulating the independent variable(price elasticity). The first option is wrong as it shows R multiple which is rather the coefficient. The third and the last options are incorrect as they display the intercept employed to determine the quantity and the key error of calculating the standard deviation.
2). The predicted quantity demanded would be 24,213 if the price is fixed at $7.00.
It can be calculated using the formula;
Quantity demanded = Intercept + (Adjusted R squared * Price coefficient)
∵ Quantity Demanded = 56,400.50 + (7 X -4,598.2)
= 24,213
Answer:
the annual pre-tax cost of debt is 10.56%
Explanation:
the beore-tax component cost of debt will be the actual market rate of the bonds, as they offer an interest rate of 11% but are selling at 104 points not at par thus, there is a difference between the rates.
We solve for the rate which makes the coupon and maturity 104
with excel or a financial calculator
PV of the coupon payment
C 5.500 (100 x 11%/2)
time 60 (30 years x 2 payment per year)
rate <em>0.052787474</em>
PV $99.4338
PV of the maturity
Maturity 100.00
time 60.00
rate <em>0.052787474</em>
PV 4.57
<em><u>Adding both we should get 104 which is the amount the bonds is selling:</u></em>
PV coupon $99.4338 + PV maturity $4.5662 = $104.0000
The rate is generated using goal seek or wiht a financial calculator.
This rate is a semiannual rate, so we multiply by 2 to get the annual cost of debt:
0.052787474 x 2 = 0.105574947
The cost of debt for the firm is 10.56%
Answer: 2. biased; the question encourages a certain response.
Explanation:
The question is biased because it already makes assumptions of the two activities.
It labels football games as EXCITING whilst asking if one would 'SIT THROUGH' choir recitals which is a way of saying that the choir recitals are BORING.
This question therefore elicits a certain response as most people would go with the Exciting activity so as not to be seen as boring people who would go to choir recitals.
