Answer: C. The stock market now

Explanation:

The Argument target refers to the subject of the discussion in question. The speaker in question is attempting to explain why it would be a good time to buy stocks in the present which concerns the stock market today making it the subject.

The speaker does this by calling into evidence, the correlations between variables in the past and showing that with one variable ( high unemployment) currently in effect, the other variable (increasing stock prices) which it correlates with therefore has a chance of happening in the present.

You lend a friend ​$​, which your friend will repay in equal annual​ end-of-year payments of ​$​, with the first payment to be r
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: 18%

Explanation:

The payments that your friend will make are an annuity as they are constant. This means that the loan amount of $15,000 is the present value of the annuity.

To find the rate of return, use the factor tables.

Present value of annuity = Annuity * Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?%

15,000 = 3,000 * Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?%

Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?% = 15,000 / 3,000

Present value interest factor of annuity, 14 years, ?% = 5.0

Go to the present value of annuity factor table and find out what interest rate intersects with 14 periods such that the factor is 5.0.

That rate is 18%.

Rate of return is therefore 18%.

fields company has two manufacturing departments, forming and painting. the company uses the weighted average method and it repo
UNO [17]

The equivalent units of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 369,000, 384,000. b. The costs per equivalent unit of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 4.898, 3.129.

<h3>Equivalent unit of material  and conversion</h3>

1. Equivalent unit of material  and conversion

Unit transferred out = 34,500+490000-30000

Unit transferred out= 394,500

Equivalent unit of material = 394,500+(30000×85%)

Equivalent unit of material= 369,000

Equivalent unit of conversion = 394,500+(30000×35%)

Equivalent unit of conversion = 384,000

2. Cost per equivalent unit

Material = (56,200+1,800,200)/379,000 = 4.898

Conversion = (22,900+1,179,000)/384,000 = 3.129

3. Total Cost assigned

Cost assignment and reconciliation

Cost of units transferred out  

Direct material= (394,500×4.898)

Direct material=1,932,261

Conversion=394,500×3.129

Conversion=1,234,391

Total Cost transferred out=1,932,261+1,234,391

Total Cost transferred out=3,166,652

Cost of ending work in process:

Direct material=(394,500-369,000)×4.898

Direct material=124,899

Conversion=(384,000-369,000)×3.129

Conversion=49,935

Total Cost of ending work in process= 124,899+49,935

Total Cost of ending work in process= 171,834

Hence:

Total Cost assigned=Total Cost transferred out+Total Cost of ending work in process

Total Cost assigned=3,166,652+171,834

Total Cost assigned=3,338,486

Therefore the equivalent units of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 369,000, 384,000. b. The costs per equivalent unit of production for both direct materials and conversion for the forming department is 4.898, 3.129.
