Answer: Item A - Single Sourcing Strategy

Item B - Multiple Supplier Strategy

Explanation:

Item A:

This item is in high volume and has a low risk factor because there are multiple potential Suppliers present in the market. Because of this you can choose the SINGLE SOURCING STRATEGY because you can easily switch to others if one is unable to supply you with the good.

Item B:

This item has a low volume as the Suppliers are equally low. This means that the risk factor here is quite high. Because of these factors it is best to use a MULTIPLE SUPPLIER STRATEGY to mitigate the risk that one supplier will not have it. This was many options are available.

Illusion [34]

Answer:

$12,146

Explanation:

The computation of present value of this opportunity cost is shown below:-

Net After tax Operating Profit Per month = Rent space per month × Profit margin on the renting the space percentage

= $1,000 × 30%

= $300

Project is for 4 Years

Total months = 4 × 12

= 48 Months

Interest Rate Per month = 9% ÷ 12

= 0.75%

As per the question the Rent is Received at the start of the month

So Present Value of this opportunity cost = $300 (1 + PVAF (0.75%,47))

= $300 × ( 1 + 39.486)

= $12,145.85

= $12,146

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Years to maturity       Price of Bond C            Price of Bond Z

         4                               $1,084.42                       $711.03

         3                               $1,065.93                       $774.31

         2                               $1,045.80                      $843.23

         1                                $1,023.88                       $918.27

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel for the calculations of the prices of Bond C and Bond Z.

The price of each bond of the bond can be calculated using the following excel function:

Bond price = -PV(rate, NPER, PMT, FV) ........... (1)

Where;

rate = Yield to maturity of each of the bonds

NPER = Years to maturity

PMT = Payment = Coupon rate * Face value

FV = Face value

Substituting all the relevant values into equation (1) for each of the Years to Maturity and inputting them into relevant cells in the attached excel sheet, we have:

Years to maturity       Price of Bond C            Price of Bond Z

         4                               $1,084.42                       $711.03

         3                               $1,065.93                       $774.31

         2                               $1,045.80                      $843.23

         1                                $1,023.88                       $918.27
