Answer:

A. lower profit margin for Product X

Explanation:

The reason why business would shift more production of X than Z is due to the fact that profit margin for Product X is higher than that of Z.

When doing business, the producers care most about the profit (profit = revenue - cost). The higher the profit is, the more the can really earn.

Meanwhile, the market price of each product may only reflect the revenue that the producers earn from a quantity of products, not the profit. In addition, it depends on the cost as well to determine if the higher price is beneficial or not.

And equal opportunity cost between X and Z means that produce one in these products would still benefit the business the same. So it would not affect the shift.

nika2105 [10]

Answer: $403,221.67

Explanation:

Interest revenue in 2022 = Value of Lease payments in 2022 * Interest rate

Value of lease payments after first payment :

= 5,001,197 - 700,000

= $4,301,197

Value of lease payments after second payment in 2022:

= Value of lease payment after first payment + Interest revenue - lease payment

= 4,310,197 + (4,310,197 * 10%) - 700,000

= $4,032,216.70

Interest revenue in 2022 = 4,032,216.70 * 10%

= $403,221.67

SashulF [63]

Answer:

17.67%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The Loan amount in USD = $1,000,000

The Loan is denominated in Mexican pesos.

The rate of exchange at the time of loan = 5.75 pesos per USD

Thus,

The Loan amount in Mexican pesos = 1000000 * 5.75 = 5,750,000 Mexican pesos

The Loan carries interest rate = 6.5%

Now,

The Loan duration = 2 years = 4 semiannual periods

The Loan to be repaid in Mexican pesos in 4 equal semiannual installments

So,

To get semiannual installments we will apply PMT function of excel:

Which is,

PMT (rate, nper, pv, fv, type) = PMT(6.5%/2, 4, -5750000, 0, 0)

= 1556164.09 Mexican pesos

Thus,

The exchange rate dropped to 5.10 pesos per USD before the first semiannual payment is due and stays so till the end of loan period.

Then,

The Semiannual installment in USD = 1556164.09 / 5.10 = $305,130.2137

To get nominal semiannual rate (for USD amounts) we will use RATE function of excel:

The RATE(nper, pmt, pv, fv, type)

= RATE (4, 305130.2137, -1000000, 0,0)

= 8.477%

Effective annual rate = (1 + 8.477%) 2 - 1 = 17.67%

Therefore, the effective annual interest rate will Blenman end up paying on the loan is 17.67%
