It is "cutting out the middleman", which seeks to reduce distribution expenses.

By avoiding the middleman, i.e. offering straightforwardly to you, the maker can list that equivalent item for, say $75 which because of a broker or retailer rises to at least 100 $, which it to appear is a lot of difference to the buyer, while in the meantime giving them significantly more benefit than they'd make selling to a store.

7.- maturity:

interest expense 20,898.55

discount on bonds payable 2,898.55

cash 618,000

Explanation:

For the value of the bonds at issuance, we will calcualtethe present value of the coupon payment and the maturity at market rate.

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 18,000 ( 600,000 x 0.06/2)

time 8 (4 years x 2 payment per year

rate 0.035(market rate / 2)

$18000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.035)^{-8} }{0.035} = PV\\$

PV $123,731.1997

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 600,000.00

time 8.00

rate 0.035

$\frac{600000}{(1 + 0.035)^{8} } = PV$

PV 455,646.93

PV c $123,731.1997

PV m $455,646.9337

Total $579,378.1334

for the schedule we will multuply the carrying value by the market rate.

the ncompare with the proceed in cash to know the amortizaiton.

This amortization will increase the carrying value of the loan.

Mike has one hour to spend at the gym where he will jog, play handball and cycle. jogging uses 10 calories per minute, handball

slega [8]

Let
x = minutes used for jogging
y = minutes used for handball
z = minutes used for cycling

Th total time spent is 1 hour (60 minutes), therefore
x + y + z = 60

Because Mike jogs as long as he cycles, therefore
x = z
Therefore
2x + y = 60
or
y = 60 - 2x (1)

Jogging consumes 10 calories/min, handball consumes 9 calories/min and cycling consumes 12 calories/min.
The calories consumed in 60 minutes is 580, therefore
10 x + 9y + 12z = 580
Because x = z,
22x + 9y = 580 (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
22x + 9(60 - 2x) = 580
22x + 540 - 18x = 580
4x = 40
x = 10
y = 60 - 2x = 40
z = x = 10

Answer:
10 minutes of jogging
40 minutes of handball
10 minutes of cycling.

Suzanne, an HR specialist, is assessing training and development needs at

DaniilM [7]

In my opinion, we all have our own values and true colors so we can't judge and predict by only looking cover so we need time to make sure what kind of other stuffs need to fill up after her or his probation period. After that we should decide which is the best way and shouldn't terminate by just only watching cover of a new one during his or her probation period.
