Explanation:
i=interest rate
X=current rate
2X = double current rate
n = number of years
Calculate time it takes to double at 3%:
2X = X(1+i)^n
simplify by cancelling out X
(1+i)^n = 2
substitute i = 3%
(1.03)^n =2
take log
n*log(1.03) = log(2)
n = log(2)/log(1.03) = 0.6931/0.02956 = 23.45 years
Similarly, for growth rate of 7%,
n = log(2)/log(1.07) = 0.6931 / 0.06766 = 10.24 years
So the difference is 23.45-10.24 = 13.21 years (to the hundredth) sooner
Answer:
The $12,000 is the material handling cost should be assigned to products made in March.
Thus, the correct option is a. $12,000
Explanation:
For computing how much of the material handling cost should be assigned, first we have to calculate the per pound of material. The formula is shown below:
Per pound of material = Labor cost ÷ Number of pounds
= $160,000 ÷ 800,000
= $0.2 per pound of material
Now, multiply this per pound of material with moving pounds.
In mathematically,
Material Handling cost = Per unit of pound × Moving material
= $0.2 × 60,000
=$12,000
Hence, the $12,000 is the material handling cost should be assigned to products made in March.
Thus, the correct option is a. $12,000
Answer:
B) the wages received for the fifth day of work.
Explanation:
Marginal benefit is the increment in benefit generated by an increase by one unit of output. In this situation, the marginal benefit is given by difference in wage of working five days a week from the wage of working four days a week. Therefore, the marginal benefit is the wage received for the fifth day of work.
The answer is alternative B)
Answer:
Dividends for the year $63,000
Explanation:
Phil Graves Cemetery
Jan. 1 Shares issued and outstanding 63,000
June 1 2-for-1 stock split x 2
June 1 Shares issued and outstanding 126,000
Oct. 15 Cash dividend declared (per share)x $ .50
Dividends for the year $63,000
Therefore the amount that Graves should report as dividends is $63,000
Answer:
B. Kim will win, because the bonus is a reward for work they have already performed, which is past consideration and cannot be used to create a contract.
Explanation:
In order for a contract to be enforceable, consideration must be exchanged between both parties. In this case, Kim made a promise that included consideration ($3,500) but Gold didn't exchange of give anything back. The swimming pool is already finished and it represents another different contract.
Another example would be a boss telling a subordinate that he/she will receive a bonus for having worked 10 years in the firm. The employee already got paid for working the 10 years, so there is no actual exchange of new consideration.
