Given that S<span>am's distribution of meal costs has a mean of $9 and a standard deviation of $3, this means that the range of Sam's meal cost that are within one standard deviation is given by ($9 - 3, $9 + 3) = ($6, $12).

Given that Sam </span><span>always tips the server $2 plus 10% of the cost of the meal, this means that when the cost of the meal is $9, Sam tips $2 + (0.1 x 9) = $2 + $0.9 = $2.90

Therefore, the mean of the distribution of Sam's tips is $2.90

Similarly, the </span><span>range of Sam's tips that are within one standard deviation is given by ($2 + 0.1(6), $2 + 0.1(12)) = ($2 + 0.6, $2 + 1.2) = ($2.6, 3.2) = ($2.9 - $0.3, $2.9 + $0.3)

Therefore, </span><span>the standard deviation of the distribution of Sam's tips is $0.3</span>

Mason and Kirsty purchase 30 shares of Apple stock on January 1, 2009 for $72.49 per share. Mason and Kirsty receive $0.36 per s
zmey [24]

Answer:

  • after-tax average annual return = 14.41%
  • after tax dividends per year = $38.88

Explanation:

initial investment = 30 shares x $72.49 per share = $2,174.70

- dividends received per year = 30 shares x $0.36 x 4 (dividends paid every quarter) = $43.20

after tax dividends per year = $43.20 x 90% = $38.88

- long term capital gains = (30 shares x $183 per share) - initial investment =  $5,490 - $2,174.70 = $3,315.30

taxes on long term capital gains = $3,315.30 x 10% = $331.53

To calculate Mason and Kirsty's after tax average annual return (interest rate) we can use the excel spreadsheet =RATE function, where:

  • PV = -2174.70
  • FV = 5490 - 331.53 = 5158.47
  • Pmt = 38.88
  • Nper = 7

=RATE (nper, pmt, pv, [fv])

=RATE (7,38.88,-2174.70,5158.47) = 14.41%

The Creamery is analyzing a project with expected sales of3,800 units, give or take 5 percent. The expected variable cost per un
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

operation cash flow ( OCF ) is  $98800

Explanation:

given data

number of units = 3800 units

variable cost = $185 per unit

fixed costs = $364,000

depreciation expense = $104,000

sales price = $305 per unit

tax rate = 35 %

fix cost = $360,000

to find out

what is the OCF given this analysis

solution

we know operation cash flow ( OCF ) is express as

OCF = [ { selling - variable cost ) × no of units } - fixed cost ] × [ tax rate ] + [ deprecation × tax rate ]      ..............................1

put here all these value

OCF = [ { 305 - 185 ) × 3800 } - 360000 ] × [ 35% of income before tax ] + [ 104,000 × 0.35 ]

OCF = 96000 - 0.35×96000 + 36400

OCF = 62400 + 36400

OCF = $98800

Wilder Company manufactures two models of its banjo, the Basic and the Luxury. The Basic model requires 10,000 direct labor hour
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The inspecting costs should be allocated to the Basic model using ABC costing is $30,600

Explanation:

The computation of the inspecting cost is shown below:

= Total number of basic model inspection + the total number of inspection

where,

Total number of basic model inspection equals to

= Number of units produced ÷ every units produced

= 3,400 units ÷ 100

= $34

And, the total number of inspection equals to

= Total inspection cost ÷ number of inspection

= $84,600 ÷ $94

= 900

The number of inspection includes

= total number of basic model inspection + the total number of luxury model inspection

= $34 + $60 (600 units ÷ 10)

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= 900 × $34

= $30,600
