Lloyd is a divorce attorney who practices law in Florida. He wants to join the American Divorce Lawyers Association (ADLA). The

membership dues for the ADLA are $750 per year and must be paid at the beginning of each year. However, the ADLA also has an option for members to buy a lifetime membership today for $8,000 and never have to pay annual membership dues.
Obviously, the lifetime membership isn't a good deal if you only remain a member for a couple of years, but if you remain a member for 40 years, it's a great deal. Suppose that the appropriate interest rate is 7.9%. What is the minimum number of years that Lloyd must remain a member of the ADLA so that the lifetime membership is cheaper (on a present value basis) than paying $750 in annual membership dues?

Answer:

13 years

Explanation:

Note that, if we add the annual interest rate of 7.9% to $8000 [(0.079*8000)+8000] we get a total value of $8632. We perform random division of the 8632 with 11 12, 13 years we note that at 13 years the total annual payment is lowest.

Such that 8632/13 years= $664 lower than paying $750.

What do you think about the 7dream concept for seven- eleven japan? from a supply chain perspective, is it likely to be more suc
VashaNatasha [74]
The Seven Dream concept of the Seven Eleven convenience store is a good supply chain concept that targets e-commerce customer. While most of the e-commerce portal are successful these days, 7 Dream comes as an unique inception. This allows customer to order via online and collect from the store deliveries at their convenience as well. The concept is seem to be more preferred in Japan, where customers have preference towards store delivery of the shipped goods. In fact, the 7- eleven in Japan is more successful than any other countries where the franchise has its stores open.

From the supply chain perspective, I think 7dream concept will be more successful in Japan than in USA. The reason being the urban customer of Japanese market and convenient access  for them to store and pick up. For place like USA, where population is sparsely distributed to large area, this supply chain concept will not be very effective. For Suburban population, this model will be very inconvenience as they have to drive a long way to store to collect their deliveries, which they could have easily got home delivered via other such services.

Firecracker Company has developed the following standards for one of its products. Direct materials: 15 pounds × $16 per pound D
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

(-$10,000) Unfavorable

Explanation:

Direct materials:

Quantity = 15 pounds  

Standard price = $16 per pound

Actual price = Purchase Price ÷ Purchase quantity

                    = 170,000 ÷ 10,000

                    = 17

Material price variance:

= Actual purchase quantity × (Standard price - Actual price)

= 10,000 × ($16 - $17)

= 10,000 × (-$1)

= (-$10,000) Unfavorable
