Options C and E
Only Nick and Jake are optimising over his choice of fruit?
Explanation:
The marginal utility obtained from the purchase of a product is the amount of satisfaction derived from purchasing an additional unit of the product.
The utility is maximised when the satisfaction in terms of marginal utilities obtained from each product is equal to each other.
We obtain this simply by dividing the marginal utilities for each fruit by their price, and comparing them.
Dmitiri:
Apples: 8/1 =8
Pears: 10/2 =5
8/1 is not equals to 10/2
Frances:
Apples: 7/1 =7
Pears: 16/2 =8
7 is not equals to 8
Jake:
Apples: 6/1 =6
Pears: 12/2 =6
The marginal utility is equal hence Jake's choice is optimal
Latasha:
Apples: 5/1 =9
Pears: 9/2 =4.5
9 is not equals to 4.5
Nick:
Apples: 4/1 =4
Pears: 8/2 =4
The marginal utility is equal hence Nick's choice is optimal
Answer: 10.13%
Explanation:
The after-tax return on the preferred shares would be:
= After-tax return + Premium required
= (8.8% * (1 - 25%)) + 1%
= 7.6%
For the preferred stock to be issued at par with the above after tax return:
= After tax return / ( 1 - tax)
= 7.6% ( 1 - 25%)
= 10.13%
Answer:
profit margin = 23.33%
Explanation:
profit margin = net profit / net sales
- net profit = $2,800
- net sales = $12,000
profit margin = $2,800 / $12,000 = 0.233333 = 23.33%
The profit margin is a profitability ratio used to compare how many cents different companies are able to make from selling $1. Different companies have different sales levels, but we can group companies by industries and then compare them in order to determine which ones are more efficient at generating income. E.g. Company A sells $100 million but only makes $2 million in profits per year (PM = 2%), and it is much less efficient than Company B that sells $10 million and makes $1 in profits (PM = 10%). Company A's costs are too high compared to Company B's costs.
Answer: 2.72%
Explanation:
An annuity is a series of payments that is made at equal intervals. Examples are monthly home mortgage payments, regular deposits to a savings account, pension payments.
Number of payment period (NPER) = 12 years
Payment per period (PMT) = $15000
Amount needed, PV = $156000
The formula for an annuity is calculated as:
P = PMT x ((1 – (1 / (1 + r) ^ -n)) / r)
= Rate(12,15000,-156000,1)
Rate = 2.72%
Answer:
15%
Explanation:
because most company don't want to calculate interest of decimal number so they rounded it
