Determining Amounts to be Paid on Invoices Determine the amount to be paid in full settlement of each of the following invoices,
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: a) $30,400

b)$10,394

c)$16,830

d)$8,015

e)$76,626

Explanation:

When a credit term such as 2/10, n/30 is given, it means that the buyer is liable for a 2% discount if they pay within 10 days otherwise they must pay within 30 days.

Discounts are applied AFTER returns are subtracted.

Also any freight charges are charged to the buyer.

With that said, let's calculate this with gusto

a) No discount. Returns of $1,600

= 32,000 - 1,600

= $30,400 is amount to be paid.

b) Freight charges of $300. 2% discount. Returns of $2,500

= (1-0.02)*(12,800 - 2500) + 300

= $10,394 is amount to be paid.

c)Discount of 1%. Returns of $4,000.

= (21,000-4000) * ( 1 - 0.01)

= $16,830 is amount to be paid.

d) Freight charges of $175. Returns of $1,000 and discount of 2%.

= (9,000 - 1,000) * (1 - 0.02) + 175

= $8,015 is amount to be paid.

e) Discount of 1%. No returns.

= 77,400 ( 1 - 0.01)

= $76,626 is amount to be paid.

Gnoma [55]

4,000,000 units should be sold a company

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Calculating the sales in units:</u>

It has been given that the toal market demand is $20 million, average quantity purchased by buyer per year is 2 units, price average is $50, and the desired share of the market is 10%.

Q=n * q * p

Where:

Q = Total market demand,

N = number of buyers in the market, q = average quantity purchased by the buyer per year,

P = price of average unit

$\mathrm{Q}=20,000,000$ buyers $* 2$ per unit per buyer $* \$ 50$ per unit

= $2,000,000,000

Market share = $(20,000,000 \text { buyers } * 2 \text { units per buyer }) * 0.1$

= 4,000,000 units

Hence, the company should sell 4 million units to achieve 10 percent market share.
