<u>When the average product of labor is decreasing, the marginal product of labor is less than average product of the labor.</u>
Explanation:
whenever the marginal product of labor is greater than the average product of labor the average product of labor must be increasing.
Average Product of labor is defined as the total output that a firm produces divided by the amount of workers required to produce that output.
Marginal Product of Labor is defined as the additional output produced by a firm because of hiring extra workers .
Production function is defined as the inputs used by a firm and the maximum output a firm can produce by employing those inputs
<u>Thus we can say that When the average product of labor is decreasing, the marginal product of labor is less than average product of the labor.</u>
Answer:
Short-cut IRR = 18.75%
The company has not reached their rate of return goal on this contract and investment.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of production equipment = $500,000
Qualified investment tax credit (ITC) = 10% = $50,000 ($500,000 * 10%)
Contract period = 4 years with 4 years extension on renewal
Income tax rate for the company = 40%
Expected after-tax rate of return = 12%
Expected before-tax rate of return = 30% (12%/40%)
Annual income generated by the equipment = $150,000 for 4 years
Salvage value at the end of 4 years = $200,000
Short-cut IRR = 100%, divided by the number of years * about 75-80%
= 100%/4 * 75%
= 18.75%
Sue will pay back $507.20 in interest expense.
Explanation:
The formula for calculating simple interest is:
SI = P x r x t ÷ 100
- P = Principal
- r = Rate of Interest
- t = Term of the loan/deposit in years
In the given problem,
- Sue Gastineau borrowed $17,000 from Regions Bank so, P = $17000
- Sue Gastineau borrowed $17,000 from Regions Bank at a rate of 5.5%, so r = 5.5 %
- Number of days of the loan = March 5 to September 19
- Sue borrowed $17,000 from Regions Bank for the period of = 198 days, So t = 198 / 365
Simple Interest = (17000 * (5.5/100) * (198/365))
Simple Interest = (17000 * (0.055) * (0.5424657534246575))
Simple Interest = (17000 * (0.055) * (0.5424657534246575))
Simple Interest = $507.20
It is from my experience since if it is from his experience then the author could tell us something like it is a beautiful place or it is very warm. based on these statements it is opinions since he doesn't have a fact do back it up. his experience tells us what he thought so it is his opinion
The question is incomplete as the figures are missing. The complete question is,
Fosnight Enterprises prepared the following sales budget:
Month Budgeted Sales
March $6,000
April $13,000
May $11,000
June $20,000
The expected gross profit rate is 20% and the inventory at the end of February was $7,000. Desired inventory levels at the end of the month are 30% of the next month's cost of goods sold. What are the total purchases budgeted for May?
Answer:
Purchases - May = $10960
Explanation:
To calculate the total value of purchases that are budgeted for May, we first need to calculate the cost of goods sold and the opening and closing inventory for May.
As the gross profit margin is 20%, the cost of goods sold will be 80% of sales.
Cost of goods sold for May = 0.8 * 11000 = $8800
Cost of goods sold for June = 0.8 * 20000 = $16000
Opening inventory - May = 8800 * 0.3 = $2640
Closing Inventory - May = 16000 * 0.3 = $4800
Purchases = Closing Inventory + Cost of Goods Sold for the month - Opening Inventory
Purchases - May = 4800 + 8800 - 2640
Purchases - May = $10960
