<u>Answer:</u> Sunk cost

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sunk cost means the expense which has been already met by the firm and they cannot be recovered at any rate.  Sunk costs are not based on the future decisions as these expenses for the firm are the same irrelevant to the project which it is assigned. Sunk costs are not a part of the budget plan.

In the given scenario the delivery company has spent $3500 in order to upgrade the truck. So $3500 is treated as sunk cost in the proposed project.

NU YU announced today that it will begin paying annual dividends. The first dividend will be paid next year in the amount of $0.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

$10.84

Explanation:

The computation of willing to pay today is shown below:

For this first we have to find out the present value that is shown below:

Year          Dividend per share        Present value                   Present value

                                                          interest factor @12%

1                 $0.57                              0.893                                  $0.509

2                $0.62                              0.797                                   $0.494

3                 $0.77                              0.712                                    $0.548

4                 $1.07                               0.636                                   $0.681

Present value                                                                                $2.232

Now the price for the fourth year is

= (Next year dividend) ÷ (Required rate of dividend - growth rate)

where,

Next year dividend = $1.07 + $1.07 × 3.8%

                                 = $1.07 + 0.04066

                                 = $1.11066

So, the price for the fourth year is

= ($1.11066) ÷ (12% - 3.8%)

= $13.545

Now the present value of fourth year dividend is

= $13.545 × 0.636

= $8.61

So the willing to pay today is

= $2.23 + $8.61

= $10.84

the interest earnings one gives up to hold more liquid assets are: * 10 points a. an opportunity cost. b. a transactions cost. c
julsineya [31]

The interest earnings one gives up to hold more liquid assets are an opportunity cost.

What does a business' potential cost entail?

An opportunity cost illustration.

Opportunity cost is, to put it simply, what a business owner loses out on when choosing one course of action over another. It is a method for quantifying the advantages and dangers of any choice, resulting in more effective decision-making in general.

The opportunity cost of keeping money at home is Rs. 2000 per year as opposed to keeping it in the bank. As an easy example of opportunity cost, let's say a person has Rs. 50000 in his hand and has the choice to keep it with him at home or deposit it in the bank, which will yield interest of 4% annually.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

$192,000 million

Explanation:

Calculation for how much revenue should Parmac recognize in the current year

First step is to find the percentage of completion using this formula

Percentage of completion=Cost incurred/Total expected cost

Let plug in the formula

Percentage of completion=$144 million/$360 million

Percentage of completion=0.4*100

Percentage of completion=40%

Last step is to find the revenue recognized using this formula

Revenue recognized=Total contract *Percentage of completion

Let plug in the formula

Revenue recognized=$480 million*40%

Revenue recognized=$192,000 million

Therefore the amount of revenue that Parmac should recognize in the current year will be $192,000 million
