Answer:

The optimal stocking level for the bakery is cakes 27.

Explanation:

Cost c = $ 7

Selling price p = $ 10

salvage value s = $ 5

Mean = 25

Standard deviation \sigma = 8

Cu = underage cost

    = p-c

    = $10 - $7

    = $3

Co = overage cost

     = c-s

     = $7 - $5

     = $2

P\leq C_{u}/(C_{u}+C_{o})

P\leq3/(3+2)

= 0.6

By using normsinv() function in excel we to find the correct critical value

The Z value for the probability 0.6 is 0.2533

The optimal stocking level is

=\mu +z\sigma

= 25 + 0.2533 *8

= 27.02

The optimal stocking level of bakery is 27.02

Therefore, The optimal stocking level for the bakery is cakes 27.

Answer:

<u>a. Zero dividend.</u>

<u>b. 3.5 new shares</u>;

<em>texes will be paid.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

a. March 20 is a date earlier than when the dividends are too be paid on April 18, and as such Wilfred Nadeau<em> will not</em> receive any dividend if he sells his stocks since he no longer has ownership of them.

b. 45 cents dividends per 300 stocks of Wilfred is $135 (reinvestment dividend plan).

With a discount of 3.4% at $39.8 (3.4%*39.8) current price per stock makes the total cost per stock after discount= $38.4.

Dividing the reinvestment dividend plan over the discounted price (135/38.4) = 3.5 new shares, According to the requirements of law the investor must still pay tax annually on his or her dividend income, whether it is received as cash or reinvested.

Q 6.3: Mia received a credit card offer in the mail. The credit card has an annual percentage rate of 26%. What is the approxima
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

D : 2.17%.

Explanation:

The 26% is an APR(Annual Percentage Rate). This is a quoted rate that  a credit card company charges . It is also known as the  nominal rate.

Since the question is asking for a monthly rate, use the 26% and convert it into monthly rate. We have 12 months in a year; meaning, we will divide the nominal rate by 12;

Monthly rate = APR / n

APR = 26% or 0.26 as a decimal

n = compounding periods = 12

therefore, Monthly rate = 26% /12 = 2.17%
