Answer:

Average rate of return= 10.17 %

Geometric return = 9.23%

Explanation:

<em>Geometric average return</em>

This is compounded annual rate of return which is used to measure the performance of an asset over a certain number of years. It helps to measure the return generated by an investment taking into account the volatility .

Unlike the arithmetic average the geometric average gives an idea of the real rate taking into account of volatility

The formula below

Geometric Return =(1+r1) (1+r2) ...... (1+rn)^1/n

Geometric Average return =  

(1.12× 1.19× 1.21× 0.88× 1.26× 0.95)^(1/6) - 1 =0.09233168

Geometric return =0.0923 × 100= 9.23%

Geometric return = 9.23%

Average rate of return

<em>The average return is the sum of the returns over the years dividend by the Numbers of returns</em>

Average return = sum of return / No of returns

(12% + 19% + 21% + (12%) + 26% + (5%))/6 =10.17 %

Average rate of return= 10.17 %

Geometric return = 9.23%

Excerpts from Huckabee Company's December 31, 2018 and 2017, financial statements are presented below: 2018 2017 Accounts receiv
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The Huckabee's 2018 average collection period (rounded) is 5 times

Explanation:

To find out the average collection period for Huckabee's 2018, we have to use the formula of the average collection period which is presented below:

Average collection period = Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

where,

Net credit sale is $400,000

And, the average accounts receivable is calculated by applying the equation which is shown below:

= (2017 accounts receivable + 2018 accounts receivable) ÷ 2

=  ( $72,000 + $80,000 ) ÷ 2

= $76,000

Now apply the above values to the formula

So, the answer would be equal to

= $400,000 ÷ $76,000

= 5.26 times

The other things like opening balance of merchandise inventory and cost of goods and  the ending balance of merchandise inventory and cost of goods is irrelevant. Thus, it is not to be considered.

Hence, Huckabee's 2018 average collection period (rounded) is 5 times

ad-work [718]

NOTE: Your question isn't clear, Johnson. Would you mind checking it and writing it in a way you can be better helped?

Meanwhile, I hope these explanation below helps.

Answer and Explanation:

Two goods are said to be complementary goods if an increase in the price of a particular one leads to a commensurate decrease in the demand that buyers placed for the other one.

A good is said to be a normal good if the reason for an increase in demand is due to an increase in the income of the buyers.

A good is said to be an inferior good if there is a decrease in demand even though the buyers have experienced increase in their income.

Suppose you just bought a 25-year annuity of $8,200 per year at the current interest rate of 12 percent per year. What is the va
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

64,313.74 ; 95,559.38 ; 47,283.11

Explanation:

by definition the present value of an annuity is given by:

a_{n} =P*\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n} }{i}

where a_{n} is the present value of the annuity, i is the interest rate for every period payment, n is the number of payments, and P is the regular amount paid. so applying to this particular problem, we have:

1. P=8,200, n=25, i=12%

a_{n} =8,200*\frac{1-(1+12\%)^{-25}}{12\%}

a_{n} =64,313.74

2. P=8,200, n=25, i=7%

a_{n} =8,200*\frac{1-(1+7\%)^{-25} }{7\%}

a_{n} =95,559.38

3. P=8,200, n=25, i=17%

a_{n} =8,200*\frac{1-(1+17\%)^{-25} }{17\%}

a_{n} =47,283.11
