Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Zigzag Manufacturing

The Effectiveness of Leslie Demorest's Budgeting Strategy

The strategy of adjusting the previous year's operating expenses with inflation is not an effective way of strategic budget planning. Leslie's budgeting strategy does not take advantage of forecasts of unexpectedly good performance and fails to provide any reaction that can occur when there are downturns in cash flow.

An effective budgeting strategy should provide the standard for the effective use of financial resources of Zigzag Manufacturing in its business operations. There are no clear goals to be achieved and an evaluation of how the goals will be achieved through the budget implementation.

Explanation:

An effective budget should be able to forecast and track revenues and expenses, which are received and incurred in pursuit of business goals and projections. An effective budget ensures that those who implement the projections contained in the budget remain motivated. The idea of adjusting previous expenses with inflation is not an effective budgeting strategy.

Find the future values of these ordinary annuities. Compounding occurs once a year. Round your answers to the nearest cent. $200

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Normal:

$ 3,509.7470

$ 563.7093

$ 2,000.00

Due:

$3,930.9167

$ 597.5319

$ 2,000.00

Explanation:

We solve using the formula for common annuity and annuity-due on each case:

$C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} }{rate} = FV\\$

$C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} }{rate}(1+rate) = FV\\$ (annuity-due)

First:

C 200.00

time 10

rate 0.12

$200 \times \frac{11+0.12)^{10} }{0.12} = FV\\$

$200 \times \frac{11+0.12)^{10} }{0.12}(1+0.12) = FV\\$

Normal: $3,509.7470

Due: $3,930.9167

Second:

$100 \times \frac{(1+0.06)^{5} }{0.06} = FV\\$

$100 \times \frac{(1+0.06)^{5} }{0.06} (1+0.06)= FV\\$

$563.7093

$597.5319

Third:

No interest so no time value of money the future value is the same as the sum of the receipts regardless of time or being paid at the beginning or ending.

1,000 + 1,000 = 2,000

Svetradugi [14.3K]

The application administrator should tighten measures on the external application used in the database backend especially when it comes to creating user IDs in order to prevent unauthorized users - any off-campus or even non-affiliated users to indiscriminately post links, especially malware and malicious ones. This can be done by selecting a viable verification method in order to only allow on-campus students to sign-up to the service.
