The interest rate is 2% for US dollars and 1% for euro

The exchange rate is 1.25 dollars to a euro.

To calculate future exchange rate:

1.25dollars (1+exchange rate of us/1+ exchange rate of euro)

= 1.25(1.02/1.01)

= 1.2625

Approximately 1.26

After a year they will be getting .26 million dollars.

They need to invest something close to this amount 1.2/1.02

Therefore option b is the best answer

timama [110]

Answer:

The amount of the cost of goods sold for this sale is $98.4

Explanation:

Marquis Company uses a weighted-average perpetual inventory system

August 2, 22 units were purchased at $3 per unit,

Total cost = $3 x 22 = $66

Average cost per unit: $3

August 18, 27 units were purchased at $5 per unit

Total inventory = $66 + $5 x 27 = $201

Average cost per unit = $201/(22+27) = $4.1

August 29, 24 units were sold

Cost of goods sold = 24 x $4.1 = $98.4

Rina8888 [55]
<span>Breached. Explanation: A contract is a legally binding agreement between two parties. Once an agreement is signed between two parties, both parties are subject to terms and conditions written in the agreement. As in the above example, Flora agrees to sell harvesters grocery a minimum quantity of fresh fruits and vegetables every week for three months, that means Flora is subject to the agreement that she will sell that no matter what the future market price will be, whether it increases or decreases. As Flora decides not to deliver the agreed order, it is a violation of terms and conditions of the agreement/contract. So the contract is breached.</span>

As in the previous Participation Exercise, the Khalid Company manufactures and sells Paso-the-Salsa, which is a bottled condimen
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each bottle is sold for $5. The company recently had the following costs to produce 12,000 units of its product during August:

(1) Rent of $5,000 on a billboard to help advertise the product

(2) Rent on factory and equipment of $8,000

(3) Total payroll for hourly-paid, factory workers $24,000

(4) Tomatoes, onions, spices, and bottles $18,000

(5) Total payroll for salaried, administrative staff $6,000

The company sold 8,000 units.

A) First, we need to calculate the total and unitary cost of production:

Total cost= direct material + direct labor + factory overhead

Total cost= tomatoes, onions, spices, and bottles + Total payroll for hourly-paid, factory workers + Rent on factory and equipment

Total cost= 18,000 + 24,000 + 8,000

TC= 50,000

Unitary cost= 50,000/12,000= $4.17 per bottle

Now, we can calculate the cost of goods sold:

COGS= unitary cost* units sold= 4.17*8,000= $33,360

B) Income statement:

Sales= 8,000*5= 40,000

COGS= (33,360)

Gross profit= 6,640

Selling expense= (5,000)

Administrative expense= (6,000)

Net operating income= (4,360)

C) Inventory= unitary cost* ending inventory in units

Inventory= 4.17*4,000= $16,680

A company made a profit of $75,000 over a period of 6 years on an initial investment of $15,000. What is its annualized ROI?
Slav-nsk [51]
Return on  Investment = 83% or 0.83

total Profit = 75000
term = 6 yrs
annual profit = 75000 / 6 = 12500
initial investment = 15000

ROI = Net  Profit / Total Asset
       = 12500 / 15000
       = 0.83  or  83% (0.83 x 100%)
