Answer:
The future value of a 18-year annuity of $2,000 per period where payments come at the beginning of each period is $59,078.
Explanation:
We apply the formula to calculate future value of annuity to find the future value of 18-year annuity as at the beginning of year 18 ( because payment comes at the beginning of the year):
2,000/5% x (1.05^18 -1) = $56,264.77.
We further compound the future value of 18-year annuity as at the beginning of year 18 for one period to come up with the future value of this annuity as at the end of 18 year time:
56,264.77 x 1.05 = $59,078.
So, the answer is $59,078.
Answer: 1) Carol can use the surve results to . identify the building blocks of competitive advantage and develop strategies to use them to increase profitability and in this way try to get the most out of it.
2) Strategically, managers who have identified these advanced factors should <u>take steps to protect these assets, either formally or as a trade secret, optimize the company's use of them and not outsource them to other firms </u>because it is convenient to try that the competition does not find out about the use of this factor of production so that it cannot imitate them and thus be able to gain a greater market share to the competition.
3) The statement "in response to requests from customers for healthier food on the menu, a restaurant tweaks its recipe for its most popular sandwich to remove processed ingredients and replace them with fresh vegetables." describes a strategy that adds value to multiple factors as it goes through several activities in the value chain because the company's decision to use less processed ingredients and more fresh vegetables not only facilitates production but also responds to a customer need, which will value the products even more.
Answer: B. The capital gains yield is positive.
Explanation:
The Capital Gains Yield is a percentage figure that tells how much an investment has increased in price from it's acquisition.
It works by taking the new value and dividing it by the original value.
Using Stacy as an example, the Stock increased by $4 so assuming she bought the stock for even $0.1 then her Capital Yield is,
= 4/0.1
= 40 * 100%
= 4000% which is positive
As long as the stock was sold for more than it was bought, Capital Yield Gain is positive.
