Answer: -1.26%

Explanation:

We can solve for this using the following formula.

Return on Stock Market = Down figure of Index / ( Close figure of Index - down figure of Index)

So calculating we have,

Return on Stock Market = -98.34 / ( 7,447.50 - (-98.34))

Return on Stock Market = -98.34 / 7,545.84

Return on Stock Market = - 0.0126

Return on Stock Market = -1.26%

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

5%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Present value of the company, PV = $300,000

Current Profits, π₀ = $11,000

Interest rate, i = 9% = 0.09

Now,          

we know,            

PV = \pi_0(\frac{1+i}{1-g})

here,

g is the growth rate        

on rearranging, we get          

g =  i - \frac{(1+i)\pi_0}{PV}

on substituting the respective values, we get

g = 0.09 - \frac{(1+0.09)\times11,000}{300,000}

or  

g = 0.05

or

g = 0.05 × 100%

= 5%

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

X - number of units sold

Total cost for production = 1,500,000 + 1600X

Total cost for purchasing = 2000X

a.  For 4000 units sold

Total cost for production = 1,500,000 + 1600 * 4000 = $7,900,000

Total cost for purchasing = 2000* 4000 =  $8,000,000

In this case producing is cheaper. Therefore, it is better to produce

b. Y - break-even point

Then :  1,500,000 + 1600 * Y = 2000* Y

So 1,500,000 = 400 Y

Y = 3750

At №of units less than 3750 purchasing will be the better option

And above 3750 producing will be the better option

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

$6,500

Explanation:

For computing the estimated fixed cost, we have to determine the variable cost per hour which is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High power cost - low power cost) ÷ (High machine hours - low machine hours)

= ($20,000 - $11,000) ÷ (12,000 hours - 4,000 hours)

= $9,000 ÷ 8,000 hours

= $1.125

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High power cost - (High machine hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $20,000 - (12,000 hours × $1.125)

= $20,000 - $13,500

= $6,500
