Answer:

$80

Explanation:

In this company, every dollar spent in labor has equal marginal product than every dollar spent in capital.

If we spent an additional $20 in labor and the marginal product output is $40, it is a 1:2 relationship (for every dollar spent in labor we get $2 of product output).

If the company spends $40 in capital, if it has the same marginal product output as labor (1:2 relationship), then its marginal product output will be $80.

John's Auto Repair just obtained an interest-only loan of $35,000 with annual payments for 10 years and an interest rate of 8 pe
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

$2,800

Explanation:

An interest only loan represents a type of loan offer where a borrower is only expected to pay the interest either for some of the term of the loan as agreed or for all of the terms of the loan. However, the principal amount that is collected remains constant all through the agreed interest -only period.

Since the loan obtained by John's Auto Repair is Interest Only, it means that the principal of $35,000 remains constant.

Hence, in the 8th year, John is expected to pay only the interest for the period =

0.08 x $35,000

= $2,800

Answer:

Net Income for the year is $41700

Explanation:

The accounting basis that is generally followed by the businesses is the accrual basis of accounting. The accrual principle states that incomes and expenses should be recorded and recognized in the period to which they relate to rather than in the period where cash is received or paid.

This means that we will record income and expenses related to this year in this year's profit calculation even when we have not received or paid cash for such incomes and expenses.

Thus, net income for this year will be calculated as,

Net Income = Total Sales Revenue - Total expenses

Net income = 113000 - 71300    

Net Income = $41700

Keenan Industries has a bond outstanding with 15 years to maturity, an 8.25% nominal coupon, semiannual payments, and a $1,000 p
ycow [4]

Answer:

6.52%

Explanation:

For computing the nominal yield to call, first we have to find out the present value by applying the present value formula which is shown in the attachment below:

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 6.50% ÷ 2 = 3.25%

NPER = 15 years  × 2 = 30 years

PMT = $1,000 × 8.25% ÷ 2  = $41.25

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the present value is $1,166.09

Now to determine the yield to call we use the RATE formula that is shown in the attachment below:

Present value = $1,166.09

Future value or Face value = $1,120

PMT = $1,000 × 8.25% ÷ 2  = $41.25

NPER = 6 years × 2 = 12 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this, the bond nominal yield to call is

= 3.26% × 2 years

= 6.52%
