Explanation:

Customer                         AAA               BBB

Molding time/batch          5 hours            7.5 hours

Batch size                       100 units                50 units

Activity Based Rate= Cost per Unit of Cost Driver

Activity                Cost driver         Cost                 Rate

Molding                2,000              $150,000        $150,000 / 2,000 = 75

Inspection            150                   $75,000        $75,000/150 = 500

<u>Production             20                 $125,000        $125,000/20=  6250         </u>

You are running a hot Internet company. Analysts predict that its earnings will grow at 30% per year for the next five years. Af
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The present value of the future earnings is $51,981,214.36

Explanation:

The present value of the earning can be calculated by discounting the earnings for the next five years along with calculating the terminal value of earnings at the end of the five years when the growth rate in earnings becomes constant and discounting it back to the present value.

Taking the value in millions,

Present Value = 1 * (1+0.3) / (1+0.08)  +  1 * (1+0.3)^2 / (1+0.08)^2  +  

1 * (1+0.3)^3 / (1+0.08)^3  +  1 * (1+0.3)^4 / (1+0.08)^4  +  1 * (1+0.3)^5 / (1+0.08)^5  + [( 1 * (1+0.3)^5 * (1+0.02) / (0.08 - 0.02)) / (1+0.08)^5]

Present value = $51.98121436 million or $51,981,214.36

butalik [34]

It might be a good idea to expand or upgrade a firm's human capital base during a downturn, because unemployment is high and therefore human capital is abundant and wages usually fall.

Social scientists refer to personal qualities seen to be helpful in the manufacturing process as "human capital." It includes the education, health, and knowledge of the workforce.

The information, skills, and health that people invest in and amass throughout the course of their life give them the opportunity to realize their potential as contributing members of society.
