Simple interest produces interest only over the initial amount.

So every year the interest will be $1000 * 5 / 100 = $50.

That is, after 3 years 3 * $50 = $ 150.

Simple interest does not take into account the reduction of the principal but calculates the interest over the same initial amount, in this case $1000.

So, the answer is $150, which is the result of $50 times 3.

Oven Contribution

Hours Required Margin Per Unit

Muffins 0.2 $4

Coffee Cakes 0.3 $5

Answer:

Total contribution margin = $ 60,000.00

Explanation:

When a business is faced with a problem of shortage of a resource which can be used to produced more than one product type, to maximize the use of the resource , the business should allocate it for production purpose in such a way that it maximizes the contribution per unit of the scare resource.

Therefore Crane Company should alocate the oven hours to maximise the contribution per unit of oven hour. This is done as follows:

Step 1

Calculate he contribution per oven hour and rank the product

cont/hr ranking

Muffin $4/0.2 hour = 20 1st

Coffee cakes $5/0.3 hour= 16.67 2nd

Because Muffin generates the highest contribution per hour of Oven, Crane should allocate all the resource to it

Step 2

Calculate the Total contribution from the production of Muffin

Total contribution margin = 20 per her × 3000

= $ 60,000.00

Nutech Corp. is expecting the following cash flows—$79,000, $112,000, $164,000, $84,000, and $242,000—over the next five years.

Alja [10]

Answer:

$429,560

Explanation:

Present value will be calculated through the PV formula,

$PV = \frac{C1}{1+r} + \frac{C2}{(1+r)^{2} } + \frac{C3}{(1+r)^{3}} + \frac{C4}{(1+r)^{4}} + \frac{C5}{(1+r)^{5}}$

r = 15%

C1 = $79,000 ,C2 = $112,000 ,C3 = $164,000 ,C4 = $84,000 ,C5 = $242,000

Substituting the values in the formula,

$PV = \frac{79,000}{1.15} + \frac{112,000}{(1.15)^{2} } + \frac{164,000}{(1.15)^{3}} + \frac{84,000}{(1.15)^{4}} + \frac{242,000}{(1.15)^{5}}$

PV = 68,695.66 + 84,688 + 107,838 + 48,030.2 + 120,338.14

PV = $429,560

The present value of the cash flows of Nutech Corp. over the next five years is $429,560.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The correct answer is $9187.5.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Asset cost = $140,000

Residual value = $42,000

Life period = 8 years

So, Annual depreciation can be calculated by using following method:

Annual depreciation = ( Asset cost - Residual value) ÷ Life period

= ($140,000 - $42,000) ÷ 8

= $12,250

As depreciation is to be recorded till Dec.31

So, total time period = Apr - Dec = 9 months

So, Depreciation expense till Dec.31 = $12,250 × (9 ÷ 12)

= $9,187.5

Hence, Depreciation expense till Dec.31 is $9,187.5.
