Answer:
Total cost is $24060
Explanation:
Total demand per year = 12000 units
Size of one order = 3000 units
Total number of orders = 12000 / 3000 = 4
Per order cost = $15
Per unit cost = $2
Below is the calculation to find the total cost.
Total cost = Number of orders × Per order cost + Total demand per year × Per unit cost
Now insert the values.
Total cost = 4 ×15 + 12000 × 2
Total cost = $24060
Answer: 77 months
Explanation:
Use the NPER function on Excel to find the answer.
Rate is compounded monthly so:
= 8% / 12
= 0.66667%
Payment = 5,000 per month
Present value = $0
Future value = 500,000
Value should be = 76.87 months
= 77 months
Answer:
8.63%
Explanation:
The expected rate of return on the bond can be determined using a financial calculator bearing in mind that the calculator would be set to its end date before making the following inputs:
N=17(number of annual coupons in 17 years)
PMT=100(annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*10%=$100)
PV=-1120(the current price is $1,120)
FV=1000(the face value of the bon is $1000)
CPT
I/Y=8.63%
EXCEL APPROACH:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper=N=17
=rate(17,100,-1120,1000)
rate=8.63%
Answer:
ME should make the investment because it results in not only higher market share but also a $24,000 increase in profits.
Explanation:
Currently ME's marketing expenditures represent 25% of the industry's marketing expenditures and it matches his market share. Using the competitive parity approach, three additional market share points should cost $120,000 ($40,000 for each point) and should increase gross profits to a total of $1,344,000 ($144,000 increase). The difference between incremental revenue and incremental expenses = $144,000 - $120,000 = $24,000.
