Answer:

1.60 percent

Explanation:

exact real rate of return on this investment = interest rate - inflation rate

total revenue gotten by Christina = ( 500 × $ 64.25) + $ 738 = $ 32863

total money invested = 500 × $ 62.30 = $ 31150

her profit =  $ 32863 - $ 31150  = $ 1713

interest =  $ 1713 / $ 31150 = 0.054992 × 100 = 5.4992 %

exact interest rate = 5.4992 %  - 3.9% = 1.5992 approx 1.60 percent

Sliva [168]

Answer:

A. cash collected is 442,500

B. Cash paid to suppliers is 62,000

Explanation:

A. To determine the cash collected for the period, the account that we should analyze is the accounts receivable.

Net sales 500,000

Less: Increase in accounts receivable 50,000

Less: write off 7,500

total collection 442,500

*increase in accounts receivable means lesser amount of collection than the sale on account

*write off will decrease the accounts receivable which means, it affects the cash collection computation.

B.To determine the cash paid to suppliers, let’s analyze the accounts payable account.

Increase in inventory 45,000

add: decrease in accounts payable 17,000

total cash paid to suppliers is 62,000

*increase in inventory implies an additional purchase made by the company

*decrease in accounts payable resulted from cash payment made to suppliers.

On January​ 2, 2017, Kellogg Corporation acquired equipment for​$800,000. The estimated life of the equipment is 5 years or​ 80,
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Book value of the asset = $484,000

Explanation:

Given:

Equipment cost = $800,000

Residual value = $10,000

Computation:

Depreciation = (Equipment cost - Residual value) /  Life

Depreciation = ($800,000 - $ 10,000) / 5

Depreciation = $ 158,000 per year

Depreciation for 2 year =$ 158,000 x 2

Depreciation for 2 year = $316,000

Book value of the asset = Equipment cost - Depreciation for 2 year

Book value of the asset = $800,000 - $316,000

Book value of the asset = $484,000

Manuel has plans to go to a movie and already has a $10 nonrefundable, nonexchangeable, and nontransferable ticket. Now Poornima
Verdich [7]

Answer:

3. Correctly ignored a sunk cost

Explanation:

Sunk costs refer to those costs which have been incurred in the past and which can no longer be recovered. For example, past expenditure on research and development with no current or future benefits represent sunk costs which can no longer be recovered.

Sunk costs are irrelevant for decision making process as they do not relate to current projects and yield no economic benefit.

In the given case, Manuel had already purchased a $10 movie ticket, which can neither be transferred nor eligible for a refund.  Later when he does not exercise the option of going for the movie and opts for a concert instead, the amount of 10$ spent on the movie represents a sunk cost which is non recoverable.

Identify and explain 2 reasons why a business such as AEC could not be successful without other firms providing natural resource
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

AEC needs rubber to make its seals too. Oil is needed to produce rubber and, like coal and iron ore, oil is a natural resource. Without oil, AEC would have no rubber for seals. Natural resources are declining over time + coal reserves, especially, are running out.
