Answer:

$214,500

Explanation:

For the computation of the amount of contribution margin first we need to follow some steps which are shown below:

No of units sold = Total sales ÷ selling price per unit

= $374,400 ÷ $24

= $156,00

Variable cost = No of units sold × Variable cost per unit

Variable cost = $15,600 × $13

=$202,800

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable cost

= $374,400 - $202,800

= $171,600

CM ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales

= $171,600 ÷ $374,400

= 0.46

Contribution margin = CM ratio × Sales Contribution margin

= 0.46 × (1.25 × $374,400)

= $214,500

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

A printer is a device that accepts text and graphic output from a computer and transfers the information to paper, usually to standard size sheets of paper. Printers vary in size, sophistication, speed, and cost. In general, more expensive printers are used for higher-resolution color printing.

Printers today have many features that include improved quality, photo printing capabilities, digital camera connectivity, built-in flash memory card readers, wireless connectivity, and faster speed.  

The Six important printer qualities are:

  1. Color: It is important for users who need to print pages for presentations or maps, photos and other pages where color is part of the information. Color printers can also be set to print only in black-and-white. Color printers are more expensive to operate since they use two ink cartridges (one color and one black ink, toner) that need to be replaced after a certain number of pages. Users who don't have a specific need for color and who print a lot of pages will find a black-and-white printer cheaper to operate.  
  2. Resolution: Printer resolution (the sharpness of text and images on paper) is usually measured in dots per inch (dpi). Most inexpensive printers provide sufficient resolution for most purposes at 600 dpi.
  3. Speed: If you do much printing, the speed of the printer becomes important. Inexpensive printers print only about 3 to 6 sheets per minute. Color printing is slower. More expensive printers are much faster.
  4. Memory: Most printers come with a small amount of memory (for example, one megabyte) that can be expanded by the user. Having more than the minimum amount of memory is helpful and faster when printing out pages with large images or tables with lines around them (which the printer treats as a large image).
  5. Wireless connectivity : Specialized printer nowadays have wireless connectivity which allows user to communicate with the machine without physical operation. Like one can just give command to the printer to print their projects using their mobile phone while sitting on the couch. This feature might add extra bucks to the bill but its worth it.
  6. Printer languages The commands from the computer to the printer to tell the printer how to format the document being printed. These commands manage font size, graphics, compression of data sent to the printer, color, etc. The two most popular printer languages are Postscript and Printer Control Language.

Conclusively the best printer will be the one which will provide pleasant color contrast, good resolution, enough memory, wireless connectivity and have better language settings.

Pera Inc. wishes to issue new bonds. These are 5-year bonds with semi-annual interest; $1,000 par value, and a yield to maturity
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

coupon rate= 13.5%

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of periods= 5*2= 10 semesters

Par value= $1,000

YTM= 0.1/2 = 0.05

Price bond= $1,136

<u>To calculate the coupon rate, first, we need to determine the coupon per semester using the following formula:</u>

Bond Price​= coupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]

1,136 = coupon*{[1 - (1.05^-10)] / 0.05} + [1,000/(1.05^10)]

1,136 = coupon*7.722 + 613.91

522.09 = coupon*7.722

$67.61=coupon

<u>Now, the coupon rate:</u>

Coupon= par value*(coupon rate/2)

67.61= 1,000*(coupon rate/2)

67.61= 500coupon rate

0.135=coupon rate

coupon rate= 13.5%

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Desert Company

The TOTAL dollar amount of discount that was amortized during the entire first year (5/1/20 through 4/3/21) these bonds were outstanding is:

= $65,447.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Face value of bonds = $15,000,000

Issue value (proceeds)   13,308,942

Discount on the bonds   $1,691,058

Coupon rate = 8%

Effective interest rate = 10%

Period of bonds = 8 years

November 1, 2020:

Interest expense = $665,447 ($13,308,942 * 5%)

Cash payment =    $600,000 ($15,000,000 * 4%)

Discount amortized $65,447

Bond outstanding value = $13,374,389 ($13,308,942 + $65,447)

May 1, 2021:

Interest expense = $668,719 ($13,374,389 * 5%)

Cash payment =    $600,000 ($15,000,000 * 4%)

Discount amortized $68,719

Bond outstanding value = $13,443,108 ($13,374,389 + $68,719)
