Answer: 3.73%

Explanation:

We are given an EAR so first we'd have to convert it to an APR.

We do so by the following formula,

APR = [(Ear + 1)^(1/n) - 1 ] x n

APR = ((3.87% + 1) ^ (1/365/98) - 1) x 365/98

APR = ((1.0387) ^ (98/365) - 1) x 365/98

APR = 3.816%

Now that we have the APR, we get the percentage discount yields by,

= ( [360(.03816)] / [365 + (98)(.03816))

= 3.73%

The percentage discount yields on this investment is 3.73%

Bachmann Products, Inc., has found that new products follow a learning curve. The first two units have been completed with the f
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Time needed to complete the 4th unit = 57.80 hours

Explanation:

<u><em>The learning curve theory</em></u><em> states that as the cumulative output doubles the cumulative average time taken till date is reduced to a certain percentage of the previous time. This percentage is called learning rate</em>

Total time = Average time × cumulative number of units

The cumulative average time is determined using the formula below:

Y= aX^b

a - time taken for the first unit produced

b = log LR/Log 2

X- cumulative units till date

Y - cumulative average time taken for X units

LR- Learning rate

LR = 68/80 = 0.85 = 85%

<em>Time needed to complete the 4th unit</em>

= Learning rate × time take for the 2 unit

= 85% × 68

= 57.80 hours

Time needed to complete the 4th unit = 57.80 hours

Explanation:

<u>GIVEN:</u>

Total cost receives weighting = 40%

  • short term cost weighting  = 50% of (Total cost receives weighting)

                                    = 20% of (Total cost receives weighting)

                                    = 20% of 40% = 8%

Therefore option "4" is the correct answer to the above situation.
