Brianna cruz earned $130 in simple intrest in 9 months at an annual interest rate of 8%. How much money did she invest?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

She invested $2,167

Explanation:

As interest rate is not compounded, the 9-month interest of a 8% annual interest is simply:

8% * 9 / 12 = 6%

Let A be the amount of money she invest. After 9 month she will receive:

A * 0.06 dollars.

And the actual amount is $130. So she invested

A = $130 / 0.06 = $2,167

You can receive 400,000 five years from today or 1,000,000 thirty years from today. what interest rate makes them equivalent?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

3.73%

Explanation:

The computation of the rate of interest that makes the equivalent is shown below:

As we know that

Present value=Cash flow × Present value discounting factor ( interest rate% , time period)

Let us assume the interest rate be x

where,

Present value of $400,000 is

= $400,000 ÷ 1.0x ^5

And,

Present value of $1,000,000 be

= $1,000,000 ÷ 1.0x^30

Now eqaute these two equations

$400,000 ÷ 1.0x^5 = $1,000,000 ÷ 1.0x^30

(1.0x^30) ÷ (1.0x^5) = $1,000,000 ÷ $400,000

1.0x^(30 - 5)=2.5

1.0x^25=2.5

1.0x = (2.5)^(1 ÷ 25)

x =1.03733158 - 1

= 3.73%

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year. 1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage. 2. Ma
marishachu [46]

Answer:

1-a. Total Contribution margin is $210,000 and Net operating income is $28,000.

1-b. Degree of Operating Leverage = 7.50

2-a. The expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year is 150%.

2-b. Expected amount of Net Operating Income is $70,000.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Magic Realm, Inc., has developed a new fantasy board game. The company sold 15,000 games last year at a selling price of $20 per game. Fixed costs associated with the game total $182,000 per year, and variable costs are $6 per game. Production of the game is entrusted to a printing contractor. Variable costs consist mostly of payments to this contractor.

Required:

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year.

1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage.

2. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption:

a. What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?

b. What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)

Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year.

The contribution format income statement for the game last year can be prepared as follows:

Magic Realm, Inc.

Contribution Income Statement

For Last Year

<u>Details                               Total ($)       Per Unit ($)   </u>

Sales                                 300,000              20

Variable cost                <u>    (90,000)   </u>          <u>  (6) </u>

Contribution margin         210,000               14

Fixed expense                <u> (182,000) </u>

Net operating income   <u>   28,000  </u>

1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage.

Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Operating Income = $210,000 / $28,000 = 7.50

2-a. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?

Since:

Degree of Operating Leverage = Percentage change in Operating Income / Percentage change in Sales

Substituting the relevant values, we have:

7.50 =  Percentage change in Operating Income / 20%

Percentage change in Operating Income = 7.5 * 20% = 150%

Therefore, the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year is 150%.

2-b. Management is confident that the company can sell 18,000 games next year (an increase of 3,000 games, or 20%, over last year). Given this assumption: What is the expected amount of net operating income for next year? (Do not prepare an income statement; use the degree of operating leverage to compute your answer.)

This can be calculated as follows:

Change in Net Operating Income = 150% * $28,000 = $42,000

Expected amount of Net Operating Income = Current Net Operating Income + Change in Net Operating Income = $28,000 + $42,000 = $70,000

Verbal orders by telephone or in person are discouraged. In cases where verbal orders are necessary, which of the following is t
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

The person receiving the order should read it back to ensure that the order is correct.

Explanation:

In business communication the best way to communicate orders is in written form since this allows for clear conveyance of the message in the order. Using verbal means to give orders over the phone is prone to misinterpretation and there is less accountability when the subordinate claims he did not understand the order.

To curtail this it is advisable for the recipient of the order to repeat the order. This shows it has been clearly understood.
