Answer: $1639.3

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Bank A quotes a bid rate of $0.300 and an ask rate of $0.305 for the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) and that bank B quotes a bid rate of $0.306 and an ask rate of $0.310 for the ringgit.

The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage goes thus:

Purchasing Malaysian ringgit (MYR) from bank A at the ask rate will be:

= $500,000/$0.305

= 1,639,344.3

Selling the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) at bank B based on the ask rate will be:

= 1,639,344.3 × 0.306

= $501,639.3

The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage will be:

= $501,639.3 - $500,000

= $1639.3

Aliun [14]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

The court likely to rule in favor of Ewing.

The reason is that the enough consideration that gives backing to a promise in this case is generally the waiver of a legal right to eat to obesity as requested by the other party.

The evidence that Ewing has lost 154 pounds in weight over the stipulated period is a consideration that sufficient enough under the law. The payment of $10 pound that Ewing has lost is a promise. The fact that Ewing also benefit from the weight loss does not matter.

Thereby fixing of future prices will be biased towards this figure.

In this instance an anchor was in place and kept the customers loyal. But when Penney pulled up the​ anchor, many of the ccustomerswent away.

<em>Questions</em>

What is the company's cost of goods sold for the month?

COGS 33,000

What is the company's net income for the month?

net loss               4,333

What is the company's ending inventory for the month?

16,667

Missing Information:

It sold 8,00 units

Explanation:

manufacturing cost:

rent on factory 8000 +

factory workers salary 24000 +

direct materials  18000 = 50,000

cost per unit considering it produced 12,000:

50,000 / 12,000 = (4 + 1/6)

then, cost of good sold: cost per unit x units sold

(4 + 1/6) x 8,000 = 33,333.33

ending inventory 50,000  manufactured - 33,333 sold = 16,667 ending inventory

income for the month:

8,000 x 5         40,000

COGS            <u>  - 33,333   </u>

gross margin       6,667

adv expense     -5,000

admin expense <u>-6,000    </u>

net loss               4,333
