Answer:

$12,015 approx.

Explanation:

To calculate present value of a future amount, the future amount is discounted at the rate of interest for the period of investment, which reveals present value as on today. The technique is referred to as discounting technique.

Suppose P denote the amount invested today, which when matured after period of two years yields $13500. Following formula is used for calculating the money invested:

A =\ P (1\ +\ \frac{R}{100}) ^{n}

wherein, A = Amount

              P = Principal

              R = Rate of interest

               n = number of years

13500 =\ P (1\ +\ \frac{6}{100}) ^{2}

13,500 = 1.1236 P

⇒ P = 12,015 Approx.

Thus, $12015 is required to be deposited today so as to yield $13,500 after 2 years compounded at 6% per annum rate of interest.

Answer:

$ 12053

Explanation:

Interest = [ Principle x Rate x Time ]

Given : Time = 2 years ; Rate = 6% ; Principal = P

Also, Interest = Final Amount - Principal ; & given Final Amount = 13500

13500 - P = [ P x 0.06 x 2 ]  

13500 - P =  0.12P

13500 = 0.12 P + P → 1.12P

P = 13500 / 1.12

Principal = 12053

Trio company reports the following information for the current year, which is its first year of operation
Arlecino [84]

Explanation:

1. The computation of cost per unit using a absorption costing

Fixed cost

= Fixed manufacturing overhead ÷ Units produced

= $160,000 ÷ 20,000

= $8

Variable costs

Direct material per unit $15

Direct labor per unit $16

Variable manufacturing overhead per unit

= Variable overhead ÷ Units produced

= (80,000 ÷ 20,000)

= $4

Total Variable cost per unit

= $15 + $16 + $4

= $35

Total cost per unit

= $8 + $35

= $43

The computation of cost per unit using a variable costing

Direct material per unit $15

Direct labor per unit $16

Variable manufacturing overhead per unit $4

= $15 + $16 + $4

= $35

2. The computation of ending finished goods inventory using absorption costing

Number of finished goods in units 6,000

Cost of goods in ending inventory

= 6000 × $43

= $258,000

The computation of ending finished goods inventory using variable costing

= Number of finished goods in units 6,000

Cost of goods in ending inventory

= 6,000 × $35

= $210,000

3. The computation of the cost of goods sold using absorption costing

Number of units in sold goods 14,000

Cost of goods sold

= 14,000 × $43

= $602,000

The computation of the cost of goods sold using variable costing

Number of units in sold goods 14,000

Cost of goods sold

= 14,000 × $35

= $490,000

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The correct answer is hot site.

Explanation:

A hot site is a site where a company's operation can take place after a disaster. it is a duplicate of the original site and is situated at an off-premises location. It is a backup site which has all the equipment that is required to continue operations. it is always online and immediately available.  

A warm site has lesser equipment than a hot site and requires more time to be operational. A cold site has the least equipment and takes a few days to be operational but is the cheapest alternative.  

Since the company here wants the business to resume in the least time it should go for a hot site.
