Slick Sam has a special relationship with his banker. The nature of the relationship is as follows: The bank owes Sam $100 per y

ear forever. The 1st payment is due in 1 year. The bank will borrow or lend money to Sam at a constant effective rate of i per year. Today, Sam calculated the present value of the payments that are due to him as X. Sam can receive his first 16 payments at the end of year 16 in a lump sum. If he does that, then the total value of the lump sum and future payments at the end of the sixteenth year is X + 2,000. Calculate X.

Answer:

X=97.24

Explanation:

PV = Present Value = X+2000 by the 16th years

PMT = Payments = $100

FV = Future Value = 2000 at the end of 16 years

n= number of years

Applying the equation of future value for annuity

FV = pmt* ​((1+r)ⁿ - 1   )/r

Inputting the values;

2000=100*((1+r)¹⁶-1)/r

Solving for r, gives r = 2.9%

Therefore using the formula for PV for annuity;

PV=PMT*(1-(1/1+r)/r)

X=100*(1-(1/1.029)/0.029

X=100*((1-0.9718)/0.029)

X=100*(0.0282/0.029)

X=97.24

Government is lobbied to institute price controls because: Multiple Choice
trapecia [35]

Answer:

people care more about their own surplus than they do about total surplus. 

Explanation:

Price control can either be a price ceiling or a price floor.

A price ceiling is when the government or an agency of the government sets the maximum price for a good or service. It is usually set below equilibrium price.

Price ceiling increase consumer surplus and reduce producer surplus.

A price floor is when the government or an agency of the government sets the least price a good or service can be sold. It is usually set above equilibrium price.

Price floor increases producer surplus and reduces consumer surplus.

Producers would be advocating for a price floor because it increases their surplus, while, consumers would advocate for a price ceiling.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the product.

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product.

A total of 1000 units of a certain product must be completed by the end of the current week. It is now late Monday afternoon, so
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

7 workers will be required

Explanation:

We will define actual time required to do a job

= Standard time required for producing each unit x Worker efficiency (%)/100

= 11.65 x 115/100

= 13.3975 minutes

Total available minutes in 4 days = 4 days x 8 hours/ day x 60 minutes / day = 1920 minutes

Therefore ,

Number of units which can be produced by 1 worker in 4 days = 1920 /13.3975

Number of units to be produced = 1000 units

Therefore,

Number of workers required

= Number of units to be produced / Number of units which can be produced by 1 worker in 4 days

= 1000 x ( 13.3975 /1920)

= 6.977 ( 7 rounded to nearest whole number )

Quickbrush Paint Company is developing a linear program to determine the optimal quantities of ingredient A and ingredient B to
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

A. 0.9x + 0.3y ≤ 10,000

Explanation:

Given

x \to oil based plant

y \to water based plant

The data can be represented in tabular form as:

\begin{array}{ccc}{} & {A} & {B}  & {x} & {90\%} & {10\%}  & {y} & {30\%} & {70\%} & {} & {10000} & {5000}\ \end{array}

Considering only A, we have the following constraints:

A \to 90\% * x + 30\% * y

A \to 0.9x + 0.3y

Since the company currently has 10000 of A.

The above constraint implies that, the mixture cannot exceed 10000.

So, we have:

A \to 0.9x + 0.3y \le 10000

<em>Hence, (A) is correct</em>

f the steps are small, a step-variable cost may be approximated using a ______ cost function without significant loss in accurac
posledela

If the steps are small, a step-variable cost may be approximated using a Variable cost function without significant loss in accuracy.

<h3>Variable cost function</h3>
  • An expense for the company that varies according to how much is produced or sold is called a variable cost.
  • Depending on a company's production or sales volume, variable costs grow or fall. They climb as production rises and reduce as production declines.
  • It is a production cost whose level fluctuates in response to shifts in a business's manufacturing activities.
  • For instance, the raw materials required to make a product's components are regarded as variable costs because they frequently change depending on the volume of units produced.
  • The total variable cost curve depicts the relationship between total variable cost and the volume of output produced graphically.

To learn more about the Variable cost function refer to:
