Answer:

The independent cases not given in the question are:

a. Case A: Market interest rate (annual): 4 percent.  

b. Case B: Market interest rate (annual): 6 percent.  

c. Case C: Market interest rate (annual): 8.5 percent.

At 4% issue price is  $583,502.44

At 6% issue price is $501,500.00

At 8% issue price is $433,344.51

Explanation:

The price of the bond can be computed using the pv value formula in excel.

=pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the market interest given in the three cases divided by since the bond is a semi-annual interest paying bond. for example 4%/2=2%

nper is the time to maturity multiplied by 2  i.e 10*2=20

pmt is the coupon  interest receivable by investor semi-annually which is 6%/2*$501,500=$15045

fv is the face value at $501,500

at 4%

=pv(2%,20,15045,501500)

=$583,502.44

at 6%

=pv(3%,20,15045,501500)

=$501,500.00

At 8%

=pv(4%,20,15045,501500)

=$433,344.51

Economies of scale is referred as where large organizations have the advantage over the small organizations. Which means the larger the organization selling and producing more products, the lower the cost compared to the small organizations. So an organization which makes larger sales has the cost advantages that the company will exploit by expanding their production size.

15). Option D. <em><u>By the amount a consumer is willing to pay for it</u></em>

The value of a product is calculated by the ratio of its quality to its price and Prices of products are determined by supply and demand. The greater the value of product, the better will be its position among competitors. Thus either increasing the quality or reducing the price of certain product will increase the chance that the consumer will select that product than the competing product.  So the value of the product is determined by the amount a consumer is willing to pay for it.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

the cost of goods sold to be recorded at January 14 is: $230 .

Explanation:

LIFO (Last in First out) method, assumes that the last goods purchased are the <em>first ones</em> to be issued to the final customer.

This means that valuation of inventory will begin using the value of the <em>earliest</em> goods purchased.

The Cost of goods sold is calculated as follows :

Cost of goods sold : 9 units × $14 = $126

                                  13 units × $8 = $104

                                  Total              = $230
