Answer: Josh's bonus is $35,289.53.
In the question above, we need to look at the net savings that will occur from selling drinks instead of giving them as complimentary drinks. So we have,
Net Savings per year = $11.04 million
The company's MARR = 15%
Josh's bonus is 0.14% of the present value of three years' net savings.
Since the quantum of savings is constant each year, we can calculate the present value of these savings by using the Present Value of annuity formula.
![PVA = P * \left [\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} \right ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20PVA%20%3D%20P%20%2A%20%5Cleft%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B1-%281%2Br%29%5E%7B-n%7D%7D%7Br%7D%20%5Cright%20%5D%20)

PVA = Present value of three years' net savings = 25.20680529
million
Josh's bonus : 0.14% of present value of three years' net savings.

Josh's Bonus = $0.035289527
million or $35,289.53.
Answer:
D. Trojan Horse, nice to know some computer lab info of mine didn't go to waste
Explanation:
Answer:
a. If two similar properties are for sale, a buyer will purchase the cheaper of the two.
Explanation:
The principle of substitution justifies the idea that the maximum value of a property will be set by the selling price of an equally valuable and desirable substitute property. In this case of property sale, if an area has two similar houses and one is being sold for $912,000 and the other is priced at $105,000, buyers will most likely go for the cheaper one. There is no reason to pay more money if they will be getting a similar property at low cost.
Answer:
Mark's individual consumer surplus is $10.
Explanation:
Mark and Rasheed are at the bookstore buying new calculators for the semester.
Mark is willing to pay $75 and Rasheed is willing to pay $100 for a graphing calculator.
The price for a calculator at the bookstore is $65.
The consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price that a consumer is willing to pay and the price he actually has to pay.
Mark's individual consumer surplus
= Price mark was willing to pay - Price he actually has to pay
= $75 - $65
= $10
