Answer: 3
Explanation:
The marginal rate of substitution simply means the rate at which one good will be exchanged for another good based on the current market price.
Since you like servants three times as much as robots, this implies that the utility that one gets from one servant is exactly like the utility that will be gotten from three robots.
Therefore, the utility function will be:
U = 3X + Y
Then, the marginal rate of substitution will be:
= MUX/MUY
= 3

Explanation:
The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.
The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.
The sale of assets, interest received, purchase of investments are examples of investing activities while the issuance of stocks, debt principal deduction (loan settlement), issuance of debt securities etc are examples of financing activities.
An increase in assets other than cash is an outflow while an increase in liabilities is an inflow. Depreciation and other non-cash expenses deducted in the income statements are added back while the non-cash income such gain on asset are deducted from net income.
Peridot's Net cash outflows from investing activities (in millions)
= -$38 + $96 + $71 - $86
= $43
The gain from the disposal of land will be deducted from the net income under the cash flows from operating activities while the requisition of own shares is a financing activity.
Answer:
PV= $450,909.1
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flow (Cf)= $24,800
Growth rate (g)= 3.5%
Discount rate (i)= 9%
<u />
<u>To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula:</u>
PV= Cf / (i - g)
PV= 24,800 / (0.09 - 0.035)
PV= 24,800 / 0.055
PV= $450,909.1
The correct answer is choice A.
Gainsharing is normally when a business measures performance, and through a pre-determined formula, shares the savings with all employees.
In this case, Wanda can calculate the revenue for her Employee Appreciation Day event by using this formula:
-
revenue = [(number of employees of the company) + (½ x number of employee of the company)] x event price
-
x = [(638) + (319)] x 2
- x = 952 x 2
- x = $1,914
Thus, Wanda’s expected revenue is $1,914, assuming that half of the employees are married and will be attending the Employee Appreciation Day alongside their spouse.
