Luda [366]

Answer:

The correct answer is $132,664.89.

Explanation:

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

Present value (PV) = $50,000

Rate of interest (r) = 5%

Time period (n) = 20 Years

So, we can calculate future value by using following formula:

Future value = PV × (1 + r)^(n)

= $50000 × ( 1 + 5% )^20

= $50000 × (1 + 0.05)^20

= $132,664.89

Hence, After 20 years land will be worth $132,664.89.

Luden [163]

Answer:

12.381%

Explanation:

For computing HPY and HPR, the formula is same which is given below:

The formula to compute the HPY is shown below

= Dividend income + (Selling price - purchase price) ÷ purchase price

= ($1.20 + $46 per share - $42 per share) ÷ $42 per share

= ($1.20 + $4 per share) ÷ $42 per share)

= $5.20 per share ÷ $42 per share

= 12.381%

NISA [10]

Answer:

The estimated fixed cost element of power costs is $10,000

Explanation:

For computing the fixed cost first we have to calculate the variable cost per unit which is shown below:

= (High power cost - low power cost) ÷ (High machine hours - low machine hours)

= ($22,000 - $15,000) ÷ (12,000 - 5,000)

= $7,000 ÷ 7,000

= $1

Now the fixed cost would be

= (High power cost) - (high machine hours × variable cost per unit)

= $22,000 - 12,000 × $1

= $22,000 - $12,000

= $10,000

AysviL [449]

Answer:

target fixed costs is $ 420000

Explanation:

Given data

sells 2,000

sales price of $470 per unit.

product cost at $720,000

variable costs are $300,000

to find out

target fixed costs

solution

we know here product cost and variable cost

so target fixed costs is product cost - variable costs

so we put all these value to find out target fixed cost

target fixed costs = product cost - variable costs

target fixed costs = 720000 - 300000

target fixed costs is $ 420000

Heath Food Corporation’s bonds have 7 years remaining to maturity. The bonds have a face value of $1,000 and a yield to maturity

joja [24]

Answer:

8.55%

Explanation:

For computing the current yield first we have to determine the present value by applying the present value formula which is shown below:

Given that,

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 8%

NPER = 7 years

PMT = $1,000 × 9% = $90

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

After solving this, the present value is $1,052.06

Now the current yield is

= PMT ÷ PV

= $90 ÷ $1,052.06

= 8.55%
