Answer:
The largest revenue the supplier can make under this deal is $24,151.2
Explanation:
Working file has been attached to help understand how the answer was derived. Some points to note in the sheet are:
- The sheet represents the following columns which are S. No., Chairs, Price, Total Revenue and difference in each revenue.
- As the no. of chairs rises the price is dropping by $0.2 in the entire order.
- However, at first this increase in order of chairs is beneficial even with the drop in the price of entire order.
- At the point, where chairs ordered are 348 and price is $69.4 the revenue is at its largest which is $24,151.2.
- After this point the increase in the no. of chairs is only decreasing the overall total revenue of the supplier.
Answer: arithmetic Average Return =11.33%
Geometric Average Return=10.33%
Explanation:
Returns per year
Year 1 16%
year 2 23%
year 3 15
year 4 -11%
year 5 30 %
year 6 -5%
Total = 68%
Arithmetic Average = Total returns 0f ( year 1 -6) / number of years
= 68%/6 =11.33%
Geometric Average Return is given as
= ((1 + R1) × (1 + R2) × ... × (1 +Rn))(1/n) - 1
((1 + 16%) × (1 + (23%)) × (1 + 15%) x (1+ -11%) x (1+30%) x (1+ -5%))^1/6 - 1
((1.16 x 1.23 x 1.15 x 0.89 x 1.30 x (0.95)) ^1/6
((1.16 x 1.23 x 1.15 x 0.89 x 1.30 x 0.95)) ^1/6 -1
(1.8035073 )^1/6 - 1
= 1.10328 -1 = 0.10328 x 100 = 10.328% =10.33%
I’m going to go with b. Will be considered in the decision making process.
I looked up the definition of criterion and it means a principle or standard which maybe judged or decided. It’s not the ONLY thing that’s required.
Answer:
the firm's cost of equity is 17.808%
