Answer:

$623,110.52

Explanation:

We use the present value function to calculate the amount available now that is shown in the attached spreadsheet. Kindly find it below:

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 5%

NPER = 20 years

PMT = $50,000

The formula is shown below:

kvv77 [185]

The question is incomplete as the figures are missing. The complete question is,

Fosnight Enterprises prepared the following sales​ budget:

Month       Budgeted Sales

March         $6,000

April            $13,000

May             $11,000

June            $20,000

The expected gross profit rate is  20​% and the inventory at the end of February was  $7,000.  Desired inventory levels at the end of the month are  30​%  of the next ​month's cost of goods sold.  What are the total purchases budgeted for May?

Answer:

Purchases - May = $10960

Explanation:

To calculate the total value of purchases that are budgeted for May, we first need to calculate the cost of goods sold and the opening and closing inventory for May.

As the gross profit margin is 20%, the cost of goods sold will be 80% of sales.

Cost of goods sold for May = 0.8 * 11000 = $8800

Cost of goods sold for June = 0.8 * 20000 = $16000

Opening inventory - May = 8800 * 0.3  = $2640

Closing Inventory - May = 16000 * 0.3  = $4800

Purchases = Closing Inventory + Cost of Goods Sold for the month - Opening Inventory

Purchases - May = 4800 + 8800 - 2640

Purchases - May = $10960

ddd [48]

Answer:

$289000

Explanation:

Effective Gross Income (EGI): Effective Gross Income is calculated by deducting the Vacancy and collection (V&C) loss from Gross Potential Income (GPI).

First year gross potential income (PGI) is $340,000

Vacancy and collection (V&C) loss is 15% of gross potential income

Therefore, (V&C) allowance = [$340,000 15%]

= $51,000

Calculate Effective Gross Income (EGI) for the first year of operations:

Item

Amount

Potential gross income (PGI)

$340,000

Less: V&C allowance (at 15% of PGI)

($51,000)

Effective Gross Income ( EGI )

$289,000

Hence the EGI is $289,000
