Business
2 answers:
ozzi3 years ago

I believe the answer is:

1.B.large amount becomes very heavy to carry around

This mean that for making a large purchase, the buyers need to provide additional cost for transportation (providing the space needed to carry the metal to the sellers). This make it easier for that money to be stolen/robbed by bandits in the middle of the journey.

2.B no longer used by many countries

Gold standard refers to a monetary system that is based on a fixed quantity of gold. If the amount of gold held by a country is high, the strength of that country's currency would increase over other country's currency.  This system is ineffecient since a country's wealth could also be measured by other resources beside gold.


3.D.they are the same weight and same metal

When we use metal as exchange basis, the value of the coin would be determined by the rarity of the metal and quantitative amount of metal. The rarity usually correlated with the type of the metal (such as gold would be more expensive than iron), and the quantitative amount could be more accurately measured through weight.

4. A 2oz

The trading value is determined by many factors in the gold market, and the amount of weight could be obtained by conducting a simple division.

Currently, gold is traded at $ 800 / Oz

If your current coint had the worth/value of $ 1600 ,

Then the weight of your coul would be :

1600 / 800    

= 2 Oz

Pam and Lenny's Ice Cream Shop

a. The effect of the promotion on operating income for the second week of February is an increase by $350.

b. The promotion should occur.  The shop will make additional operating income of $350 within the second week.  And there will be spillover positive effects during the coming weeks after the promotion.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Selling price per cone of ice cream = $1.60

Variable expenses = $0.35

Contribution = $1.25

Fixed costs per month = $2,200

Additional sales from the promotion = 650 cones

Revenue from additional sales = $1,040.00 ($1.60 * 650)

Variable cost                                     227.50 ($0.35 * 650)

Cost of promotions:

Giveaways                                        297.50 ($0.35 * 850)

Advertising costs                              165.00

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

present value of stoke combine equation is $82.43

Explanation:

Given data

no of period = 4

discount rate = 6% = 0.06

dividends = $0.00, $2.30,​ 2.60, and​ $2.90

to find out

current stoke price

solution

we know dividend is 0 for st year so present value for 1st year will be 0 .....1

now we calculate

present value 2nd year dividend is = 2.30 / (1+0.06)^2

present value 2nd year dividend is = $2.05   ............2

present value 3rd year dividend is = 2.60 / (1+0.06)^3

present value 3rd year dividend is = $2.18    ..............3

present value 4th year dividend is = 95.83 / (1+0.06)^4

present value 4th year dividend is = $75.91    ..............4

present value of stoke  combine equation 1 + 2 + 3 + 4

present value of stoke  combine equation = 2.05 + 2.18 + 2.30 + 75.91

present value of stoke combine equation is $82.43

For the current year, Klay Corporation reports the following information:
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The company’s cash flows from operating activities was a cash inflow of $5,000

Explanation:

Cash at the end of the year = Cash at the beginning of the year + Net cash inflows from investing activities + Net cash inflows from financing activities + Net cash inflows from operating activities

Therefore,

Net cash inflows from operating activities = Cash at the beginning of the year + Net cash inflows from investing activities + Net cash inflows from financing activities - Cash at the end of the year = $340,000 + $40,000 + $45,000 - $420,000 = $5,000 >0

The company’s cash flows from operating activities was a cash inflow of $5,000
