tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

This is a correct equation for Brand X tire demand.

Explanation:

We can be sure that this is an accurate equation for demand by cheking if the slope is negative as the demand decrease when the price increase

Q= 800 - 5P

dQ/dP = -5

the slope is negative the quantity decreases as price increases so this is a demand equation.

Alo Company produces commercial printers. One is the regular model, a basic model that is designed to copy and print in black an
Nataly [62]

1. The break-even points in sales units are computed as follows:

Break-even point (in units) = Direct fixed cost/contribution margin per unit

Regular model = 20,000 units ($1,200,000/$60)

Deluxe model = 3,529 units ($960,000/$272)

2. The Alo Company's Sales revenue to break-even, company-wide, is computed as follows:

<u>Sales Revenue at break-even point:</u>

= Fixed costs/Contribution margin ratio

= $3,660,800/40%

= $9,152,000

Data and Calculations:

                                         Regular Model   Deluxe Model           Total

Expected sales quantity             90,000               18,000             108,000

Sales                                    $13,500,000     $12,240,000     $25,740,000

Less: Variable costs               8,100,000         7,344,000        15,444,000

Operating income                                                                  $6,635,200

Selling price per unit                  $150                   $680 ($12,240,000/18,000)

Variable costs per unit                $90                   $408 ($7,344,000/18,000)

Contribution margin                    $60                   $272 ($680 - $408)

Contribution margin ratio for the company = 40% ($10,296,000/$25,740,000 x 100)

Company total fixed costs = $3,660,800 ($2,160,000 + $1,500,800)

Bezzdna [24]

The first of two significant fiscal policy initiatives enacted by the government during the great recession, signed in February 2008 by President George w. bush was the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008.

During recessions, governments can adopt expansionary fiscal policies by lowering tax rates to boost aggregate demand and boost economic growth. In the face of rising inflation or other signs of economic expansion, governments can pursue contractionary fiscal policies.

Governments can use fiscal policy (increased government spending and tax cuts) to stimulate the economy during recessions. A fiscal multiplier is an estimate of the increase in output caused by a particular increase in government spending or tax cuts.

Union Local School District has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 3.1 percent paid semiannually and 22 years to maturity.
arlik [135]

Answer:

The price of the bond is $9,537.91

Explanation:

Coupon payment = $10,000 x 3.1 = $310 / 2  = $155

Number of period = n = 22 x 2 = 44 semiannual periods

Face Value = $10,000

Yield to maturity = 3.4% yearly = 3.4% /2 = 1.7% semiannually

Price of bond is the present value of future cash flows, to calculate Price of the bond use following formula:

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Price of the Bond =$155 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 1.7% )^-44 ) / 1.7% ] + [ $10,000 / ( 1 + 1.7% )^44 ]

Price of the Bond = $155 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.017 )^-44 ) / 0.017 ] + [ $10,000 / ( 1.017 )^44 ]

Price of the Bond = $4,774.94 + $4,762.97

Price of the Bond = $9,537.91
