Answer:

$11,098.94

Explanation:

first we must calculate the future value of the 7 year annuity:

FV of an annuity = p x {[(1 + r)ⁿ - 1] / r}

  • p = $13,100
  • r = 17.18%
  • n = 7

FV of an annuity = $13,100 x {(1.1718⁷ - 1) / 0.1718} = $13,100 x 11.8377 = $155,073.56

since he wants to have $176,000, he needs $20,926.44 more in 7 years (= $176,000 - $155,073.56)

X = FV / (1 + r)ⁿ

  • future value =
  • n = 4 years
  • r = 17.18%

X = $20,926.44 / 1.1718⁴ = $11,098.94

Anna007 [38]

Answer: The $4.05 market price

Explanation: Air-tite can buy or sell Hydrol at $4.05. If they decide to accept the order, there has to be a higher return on the use of Hydrol in the return than they would get from selling Hydrol as is.

There may also be an opportunity cost to using the product for this special order if there is an order that would yield higher returns for the use of Hydrol.

The quantity that would remain after making the special order does not have any impact on the decision making process, as they are considering just one order that requires Hydrol.

The purchase price is not relevant as they cannot purchase Hydrol at that price in the present. The total quantity is not relevant either as they have enough for the order.

Mohammed works in a marketing department and is working on his Master's Degree in Marketing. His career goal is to become the ma
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

(D) He should include a timeframe.

Explanation:

A concrete mapping of his goal in a timeframe is all Mohammed needs to make his goal SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely).

Since Mohammed is someone who has a strong educational and professional background regarding his goal, then the goal automatically becomes realistic and achievable. On the other hand, it is also specific, since he clearly states his desired position (he emphasizes the job of marketing department manager instead of simply stating he wants a promotion).

Since his goal is a discrete (not continuous) event, the Measurable characteristic is somewhat irrelevant.

All that is left for him to do is to state by which point in time he wants to achieve that goal (e.g. in five years' time).

Flura [38]

Answer:

C. farmers would not be able to sell all their wheat. 

Explanation:

At a price of $4, quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded. Quantity supplied is 73 while quantity demanded is 50. There is an excess supply over demand. Therefore, farmers would not be able to sell all their wheat.

Equilibrium price is $2. This is where quantity supplied equals quantity demanded.
