<span>Basically "Opportunity cost" is what you're going to lose (or have a potential to lose) if you chose a different action than what you're presented with. In the example, you're working for $15 an hour, but if you decide instead to skip a pratrice to go to the fair you're losing out of the $15 an hour you'll be paid and have to pay $9 to go to the fair. All total, you're opportunity costs for that will be $24 (fifteen you would have made plus the nine dollar fee.) This is also assuming, of course, they don't fire/dock you for just skipping work.</span>

LekaFEV [45]

Answer: $12,600

Explanation:

Based on the information that have been given in the question, the cash flow to stockholders for the year would be calculated as:

= $4250 - {[$49850 - $8350] - $49850}

= $4250 - [$41500 - $49850]

= $4250 - (-$8350)

= $4250 + $8350

= $12,600

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

So interest payment will be $8000

Explanation:

We have given face value of the bond = $100000

And bond is issued for $93500

Standard rate of interest = 8 %

And market rate of interest = 10 %

We have to find the interest paid

Interest payment will be given by
