The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value 500000
P present value. ?
R interest rate 0.06
T time 11 years
Solve the formula for p by dividing both sides by (1+r)^t to get
P=A/(1+r)^t
P=500,000÷(1+0.06)^(11)
P=263,393.76

he should deposit 263393.76 now to attain 500000

Hope it helps!

True or False: If Hubert's Fire Engines were a competitive firm instead and $100,000 were the market price for an engine, decrea
KatRina [158]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive market the sales revenue is based on pricing also. As the pricing policy also plays an important role in the marketing technique to attract customers.

As the quality served is generally the same in the market, there is no issue in that but when the price is reduced expected sales will increase and accordingly the expected revenue also increases.

As the sales is expected to increase the revenue will also increase accordingly, even though the price is reduced, due to increase in sales quantity the expected change shall not be same as that of the change in price.

Thus, the statement is False.

Use this image to answer the following question. The ice cream shop needs about two pounds of cocoa for each gallon of chocolate
navik [9.2K]
I think this is a trick question. Say, there are 2 pounds of cocoa / 1 gallon of chocolate ice cream. But then the problem only mentions the production of eight gallons of <em>strawberry</em> ice cream, not chocolate ice cream.

However, if they're somehow related (like they are made from the same machine), then you need 16 pounds of cocoa to produce 8 gallons of chocolate ice cream.

Richard has $652 in his account and is planning a road trip. He looks at how expensive hotels and sightseeing costs are in certa
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The answer is: Detroit  $196.87

Explanation:

We first must add the cost of visiting the five cities:

Detroit            $196.87

Pittsburgh      $180.32

St. Paul          $102.87

Cincinnati      $155.81

<u>Richmond      $211.86      </u>

Total cost     $847.73

Then we find what is the difference between the total cost and the road trip budget: $847.73 - $652 = $195.73

The cheapest city that Richard can drop is Detroit, by doing so his total expenses will be $650.86, which is below his budget.

JCPenney Company is expected to pay a dividend in year 1 of $1.65, a dividend in year 2 of $1.97, and a dividend in year 3 of $2
arlik [135]

Answer:

c = $71.80.

Explanation:

So, from the question above, it is given that the dividend in the first year = $1.65, the dividend in the second year = $2.54, the dividend for the third year  grows at the rate of 8% and the appropriate required return for the stock = 11%.

The first thing to do here is to determine the terminal value. The terminal value can be calculated as below as;

Terminal value = [ 2.54 × ( 1 + 8/100) ÷ (11/100 - 8/100) ]  = 91.44

The value of the stock today can be calculate as be as:

The value of the stock today = 1.65 / (1 + 11/100 )¹ + 1.97 /  (1 + 11/100)² + 2.54 / (1 + 11/100)³ + 91.44 /  (1 + 11%)³ = $71.80.

Therefore,  stock should be worth $71.80 today.

The most recent financial statements for Live Co. are shown here: Income Statement Balance Sheet Sales $14,000 Current assets $3
Sav [38]

Answer:

The sustainable growth rate is 16.52%

Explanation:

To compute the substantial growth rate, first, we have to calculate the retention ratio. The formula to compute the retention ratio is shown below:

= 1 – payout ratio

= 1 – 0.16

=0.84 or 84%

Now, we use the formula of substantial growth rate which is shown below:

= (Return on equity × retention ratio) ÷ { 1 -  (Return on equity × retention ratio)}

where,

Return on equity = (Net income ÷ total equity) × 100

                            = ($3,640 ÷ $21,560) × 100

                            = 16.88%

= (16.88% × 84%) ÷ ( 1 -  16.88% × 84%)

= 0.141792 ÷ (1 -  0.141792 )

= 0.141792  ÷ 0.858208

= 0.1652 or 16.52%
