When I started thinking about three key stakeholders of a water utility company, it became a challenge I would never expect. Too many people are interested in it – government, unemployed people, banks, local authorities, and probably I made a wrong choice trying to make a shorter list – please note, these are only my ideas and I will try to explain them.
First, I asked myself without whom this company cannot exist. The answer is obvious: without Affected people such as households, families, and individuals. These people have an extremely high interest in receiving the supply of piped water, as well as in everything that is connected with improving the quality of this service. These people should be catered well; if the quality of the service is bad (e.g., the water is dirty, there is no water during some long periods of time, the fee is too high, etc.) – affected people might do several things, from applying to the court (and, actually, winning the case) to moving in order to change the water utility company.
The other two key stakeholders are the Government and Owners. The government is interested in improving water supply and sanitation services and is responsible for setting taxes, providing opportunities and guidance. The Government sets laws, taxes, and rules – every company must obey them and if it doesn’t, it will lose a lot of money and, probably, won’t exist for a long period of time. The water utility company plays a serious role in the daily life of hundreds and thousands of citizens, and in some cases when something goes wrong the Government can directly regulate how this company works to make sure that affected people are satisfied.
Answer:
$73,000
Explanation:
Equipment net book value (NBV) = $80,000 - $60,000 = $20,000
Loss on sale of equipment = NBV - Sales proceed = $20,000 - $17,000 = $3,000
Net operating cash flows for 2019 = Net income - Loss on sale of equipment = $76,000 - $3,000 = $73,000
<span>The world’s economic systems fall into one of four main categories: traditional economy, market economy, command economy and mixed economy; however, there are unlimited variations of each type. An economic system must define what to produce, how to produce it and for whom to produced it. Depending on the products produced and the environment, certain economic strategies will be more successful than others. This might help :)</span>
Answer:
The company should order 100 units to minimize total inventory cost.
Explanation:
Given,
Annual Demand, D = 2,000 units
Order cost, S = $20
Purchase cost = $40
Holding cost, H = Purchase cost x percentage of holding cost
Holding cost = $40 × 20%
Holding cost = $8
We know, the company should order the highest number of products with a minimum cost, and for that, the company uses economic order quantity. Hence,
Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = 
EOQ = 
EOQ = 
EOQ = 100
Answer:
Explanation:
a.)
This is an annuity type of question. Using a financial calculator, input the following to find the PV of the Ordinary annuity;
Total duration; N = 15*12 = 300
Monthly rate; I/Y = 7.2%/12 = 0.6%
One-time future cashflow; FV = 0
Recurring monthly payment; PMT = 150
then compute present value; CPT PV = $20,845.24
b.) This is an <em>Annuity Due </em>type of question since the recurring monthly payment occur at the beginning of the month.
Using a financial calculator, change the mode to "BEG" and input the following to find the PV of the annuity due;
Total duration; N = 15*12 = 300
Monthly rate; I/Y = 7.2%/12 = 0.6%
One-time future cashflow; FV = 0
Recurring monthly payment; PMT = 150
then compute present value; CPT PV = $20,970.31
