Answer:
a) A discount retailer
Explanation:
The formula to determine the cash conversion cycle is shown below:
Cash Conversion Cycle = days inventory outstanding + days sales outstanding - days payables outstanding.
So as per the given situation, the first option i.e. discount retailer should have the negative cash conversion cycle as in other options it created the positive impact
So the option a is correct
Answer:
Purchases= 17,200 pounds
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production in units:
Month 1= 16,000 units
Month 2= 22,000 units
One pound of materials is required for each finished unit.
The inventory of materials at the end of each month should equal 20% of the following month's production needs.
Beginning inventory= 3,200 lbs.
To calculate the direct material required, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 16,000 + 22,000*0.2 - 3,200
Purchases= 17,200 pounds
Answer:
Unamortized discount is $43,700
Explanation:
Unamortized bond discount=original bond discount-amortization to date
original bond discount is $46,000
Amortization =interest payable-interest expense
interest payable=$400,000*10%*6/12
=$20,000
Interest expense=$354,000*10%*6/12
=$17,700
amortization of discount=$20,000-$17,700
=$2300
unamorized bond discount=$46000-$2300
=$43,700
The unamorized bond discount at the end of the first six months is $43,700
Answer:
The monthly withdrawal is $701.10
Explanation:
The monthly withdrawal can be computed with PMT formula using excel spreadsheet.
The formula is PMT(rate,nper,-pv)
The fv and type are both taken as zero.
However, the rate of 5.5 % given in the question is a yearly rate,but the requirement of the question is monthly withdrawal, hence the rate is divided by 12 months to reflect a monthly rate i.e 5.5%/12
Besides, the nper should also to be adapted to show that the withdrawal is to be made every month for 18 years, hence nper is 12*18
The computation of the pmt based on the above highlighted points is found in the attached.
Answer:

Explanation:
Given
Probability of a person to not enter into a bar or ducking is 
Probability of a person to enter into a bar
(Probability of a person to not enter into a bar or ducking)
Substituting the given value, we get
Probability of a person to enter into a bar

Total three men attempts to enter into the bar and their course of action is independent of each others
Thus, probability of observing the first two walking into the bar and the third ducking will be equal to the product of individual probabilities
