Bob bought some land costing $16,390. today, that same land is valued at $46,817. How long has bob owned this land if the price
faltersainse [42]

Bob has to own his land for 18 years if the price is increasing at the rate of 6% per year.

Given that land was bought by Bob for $16390, the price is increasing at the rate of 6%, price of land today is $46817.

We are required to find the time for which Bob need to own the land so that the price of the land is $46817 today.

Compounding means calculating amount on the principal and the amount added interest.

Rate of increasing the price of land be 6%.

Price when Bob bought the land=$16390.

Price of land today=$46817.

It is like compounding of interest and the sum is calculated as under:

S=P*(1+r)^{n}

In the above equation P is theamount at beginning,r is rate of increasing and n is the number of years.

46817=16390(1+0.06)^{n}

46817/16390=(1.06)^{n}

(1.06)^{n}=2.8564

(1.06)^{n}=(1.06)^{18}  (Approximately)

From both the sides we will get n=18.

Hence Bob has to own his land for 18 years if the price is increasing at the rate of 6% per year.

Temka [501]

Answer: A. The island of Atlantis has an increasing opportunity cost of producing potatoes and the production possibility frontier is bowed outward.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Direct materials used in production = $250,000

Direct labor = $185,000

Manufacturing overhead = $245,500

Beginning Work in Process Inventory = $20,000

Ending Work in Process Inventory = $30,000

Cost of finished goods manufactured for the year:

= Direct materials used in production + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead + Beginning Work in Process Inventory

= $250,000 + $185,000 + $245,500 + $20,000 - $30,000

= $670,500
