Answer:
a) Absolute Value Inequality => Absolute(0 + y) < 2
b) -2 < y < 2
Which means, Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. Otherwise, they will have to pay 500 USD as increased deductible.
Explanation:
<u><em>Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department.
</em></u>
<em>a) Absolute Value Equation:</em>
Absolute(0 + y) < 2
where y represent the location of the new house and 0 represents the location of the fire department.
Furthermore,
<em>Absolute(0 + y) < 2 = (0 + x) < 2 when (0 + y) is +ve. </em>
and
<em>Absolute(0+y) <2 = -(0 + x) < 2 when (0 + y) is -ve.
</em>
b) When (0 + y) is +ve,
we have, (0 + y) < 2.
<em>Solving for y and subtracting 0 from both sides. </em>
0-0 + y < 2 - 0
<em>y < 2</em>
and when (0 + y) is -ve,
<em>we have, - (0 + y) < 2.
</em>
Solving for y:
- 0 - y < 2
multiplying negative from both sides
<em>y > - 2</em>
<em>So, we have -2 < y < 2 </em>
<em>Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. Otherwise, they will have to pay 500 USD as increased deductible. </em>
Answer: 16.3%
Explanation:
Given the details in the question, the cost of preferred capital can be calculated using the CAPM method.
Cost of preferred stock using the Capital Asset Pricing Model is:
= Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - Risk free rate)
= 4% + 1.23 * (14% - 4%)
= 16.3%
Answer:
C) marketing channel or channel of distribution
Explanation:
The distribution channel (or marketing channel or downstream supply chain) refers to the chain of businesses that act as intermediaries through which a product or service passes. The distribution channel starts at the producer of the product or service and ends in the final customer.
Answer:
B. 20,000
Explanation:
Standard Variable overhead rate = $6 per units / 2 direct labour hour
Standard Variable overhead rate = $3 per hour
Variable Overhead Spending Variance = Actual hours worked * (Actual overhead rate - Standard overhead rate)
Variable overhead spending variance = 160,000 * (3.125 -3)
Variable overhead spending variance = 160000*0.875
Variable overhead spending variance = 20,000
