Answer:
$2,010
Explanation:
The future value of the savings account in 6 years can be computed using the below future value formula:
FV=PV*(1+r)^n
FV=unknown future amount
PV=current worth of the savings account=$1,200
r=annual interest rate=5%
n=number of years envisaged=6
FV=$1,500*(1+5%)^6
FV=$1,500*(1.05)^6
FV=$1,500*1.3400956
FV=$2,010
Answer:
Based on the information supply of cards is more elastic (price sensitive) than that of roses
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply is defined as the sensitivity of quantity supplied to changes in price.
The formula is given below
Price elasticity of supply= Change in quantity supplied ÷ Change in price
In this scenario the demand for both roses and cards increases, however the price of roses increases more.
This implies that the denominator in the formula is higher in roses resulting in smaller price elasticity of supply.
The elasticity of supply for cards is higher than that of roses, so it is more sensitive to changes in price.
Cards can be stored from year to year so the labour for maintaining a stock of cards is low with resultant low price.
On the other hand roses require care to grow. It requires watering, application of chemicals to treat infestation and so on. So suppliers tend to push the extra cost of growing roses to the buyers
Answer:
E) None of these answer choices is correct.
Explanation:
<u>Overhead bases on labor hours:</u>
250 units / 25 per batch: 10 batch
total overhead cost: $ 2,000 setup per batch x 10 batch= $ 20,000
20,000 overhead cost / 1,000 labor hours = 20 dollars per hour
1,000 labor hours / 250 units of output: 4 labor hours per unit
4 labor hours x $ 20 = $ 80
<u>Overhead based on activity:</u>
Setup cost: 2,000
units per batch: 25
$ 2,000 / 25 units = $ 80
Answer:
b) internal rate of return will exceed its required rate of return.
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the discount rate at which the NPV = 0. If the NPV is positive when calculated using the project's discount rate, then the IRR is going to be higher than the discount rate.
Option A is wrong because the profitability index (PI) of a project is calculated by dividing the present value of its cash flows by its cost. If the NPV is positive, it means that the present value of its cash flows will be greater than the costs, so the pI will be more than 1.
Option C is wrong because if the costs exceed the benefits, then the NPV will be negative.
Option D is wrong because that would mean that the NPV is negative.
Option E is something made up that doesn't make any sense.
