Answer:
Amounts owed to suppliers for products and/or services purchased on credit.
Explanation:
Accounts payable are basically short term debts that a company has with its suppliers. E.g. a retailer purchases goods from a wholesaler on terms n/30. In this case, the accounts payable would be the amount of money owed to the retailer. There is no specific time frame for an accounts payable, since it varies depending on the credit that the supplier gives. E.g. sometimes a supplier will sell on a 45 day credit period, or even 60 day period.
Financial insecurity, discouragement, legal issues, long hours
Answer: Proposal C
Explanation:
The way to solve this is to calculate the Present Values of all these payments. The smallest present value is the best.
Proposal A.
Periodic payment of $2,000 makes this an annuity.
Present value of Annuity = Annuity * ( 1 - ( 1 + r ) ^ -n)/r
= 2,000 * (1 - (1 + 0.5%)⁻⁶⁰) / 0.5%
= $103,451.12
Proposal B
Present value = Down payment + present value of annuity
= 10,000 + [2,200 * ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.5%)⁻⁴⁸) / 0.5%]
= 10,000 + 93,676.70
= $103,676.70
Proposal C
Present value = Present value of annuity + Present value of future payment
= [500 * (1 - (1 + 0.5%)⁻³⁶) / 0.5%] + [116,000 / (1 + 0.5%)⁶⁰]
= 16,435.51 + 85,999.17
= $102,434.68
<em>Proposal C has the lowest present value and so is best. </em>
Answer:
Unstructured interview
Explanation:
Unstructured interview is defined as one in which the questions asked are not prearranged. Rather they are spontaneous and questions to be asked are formulated during the course of the interview.
On the other structured interview is when questions are prearranged and candidates are asked the same questions.
So when Matt and Claire go into an interview for the same position and they get asked very different questions depending on how the interview is going, they are answering unstructured interview questions.
Answer:
The option that maximizes Maggie's taste index is 1 snack bar and 2 ice creams
Explanation:
<u>snack bar</u> <u>ice cream</u>
37 grams 65 grams
120 calories 160 calories
5 grams of fat 10 grams of fat
Maggie wants to consume up to 450 calories and 25 grams of fat, but she needs at least 120 grams of dessert per day. Ice cream taste 95, snack bars 85.
- maximize taste index = [85(37X) + 95(65Y)] / (37X + 65Y)
- 5X + 10Y ≤ 25 ⇒ CONSTRAINT 1
- 120X + 160Y ≤ 450 ⇒ CONSTRAINT 2
- 37X + 65Y ≥ 120 ⇒ CONSTRAINT 3
- X ≥ 0 ⇒ CONSTRAINT 4
- Y ≥ 0 ⇒ CONSTRAINT 5
maximum possible combinations following constraint 1, 4 AND 5:
- option 1: 1 snack bar - 2 ice creams (5 + 20 = 25)
- option 2: 2 snack bars - 1 ice cream (10 + 10 = 20)
- option 3: 3 snack bars - 1 ice cream (15 + 10 = 25)
possible combinations following constraint 2:
- option 1: 1 snack bar - 2 ice creams (120 + 320 = 440)
- option 2: 2 snack bars - 1 ice cream (240 + 160 = 400)
possible combination following constraint 3:
- option 1: 1 snack bar - 2 ice creams (37 + 130 = 167)
- option 2: 2 snack bars - 1 ice cream (74 + 65 = 139)
since we only have two possibilities, we can calculate which one generates the highest taste index
maximize taste index = [85(37X) + 95(65Y)] / (37X + 65Y)
- option 1: 1 snack bar - 2 ice creams = [85(37) + 95(130)] / (37 + 130) = (3,145 + 12,350) / 167 = 92.78
- option 2: 2 snack bars - 1 ice cream = [85(74) + 95(65)] / (74 + 65) = (6,290 + 6,175) / 139 = 89.68
