Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Sale value of the merchandise = $74,900

Sales tax liability = $74,900 × (7% ÷ 107%)

= $4,900

Sale value prior to sales tax = $74,900 - $4,900

= $70,000

Sales tax @7% on $70,000 = $4,900

Hope the above calculation will clear the concept since the question clearly mention that

Calhoun Crockery sold merchandise; the total proceeds collected, including a 7% sales tax, amounted to $74,900.

This $74,900 includes 7% tax also it means that the collected proceed is 100% + 7% = 107%

which includes 7% tax liability.

April runs a small shop where she provides a service. She is able to process an average of 11 customers per hour. An average of

professor190 [17]

Answer:

5. Po= 0.36

6. Pn = 0.04

7. 0.16

8. 1.11

9. 1.75

10. 9.9

Explanation:

5. Computation for the probability that April will not be working with a customer

Using this formula

Po=1-(Average number of arrival per hour/Average number of customer served per hour)

Let plug in the formula

Po= 1-(7/11 )

Po=1-0.64

Po= 0.36

Therefore the probability that April will not be working with a customer will be 0.36

6. Calculation for the probability of 5 customers in the system

Using this formula

Pn= (Average number of arrival per hour/Average number of customer served per hour)* Po

Let plug in the formula

Pn= (7/11)^5* 0.36

Pn=0.104358*0.36

Pn=0.037

Pn = 0.04 (Approximately)

Therefore the probability of 5 customers in the system will be 0.04

7. Calculation for the average time a customer spends waiting in line

Time spend Waiting in line=7^2/11(11 – 7) /7

Time spend Waiting in line=(49/44)/7

Time spend Waiting in line = 1.11/7

Time spend Waiting in line= 0.16

Therefore the average time a customer spends waiting in line will be 0.16

8. Calculation for the average number of customers waiting in line

Customers waiting in line = 7^2/11(11 – 7)

Customers waiting in line=49/44

Customers waiting in line= 1.11

Therefore the average number of customers waiting in line will be 1.11

9. Calculation for the average number of customers in the system

Average customers in the system= 1.11 +(7/11)

Average customers in the system= 1.11 +0.64

Average customers in the system = 1.75

Therefore the average number of customers in the system will be 1.75

10. Calculation for the arrival rate in order for April to stay that busy

Arrival rate = 0.9 * 11

Arrival rate = 9.9

Therefore the arrival rate in order for April to stay that busy will be 9.9

mina [271]

Answer:

$34.35

The price has fallen from $50.07 to $34.35 which means that Expansion will not be a good option.

Explanation:

Computation for the share price to expect after the announcement

Using this formula

Ke = [ D1 / P0 ] +g

Where,

D1 =$4.01

P0 = $50.07

g =3.4%

Let plug in the formula

Ke = [ D1 / P0 ] +g

Ke= [ $4.01 / $50.07] + 0.034

Ke= 0.0800+ 0.034

Ke= 0.1140

Second step is to find the Price after Expansion using this formula

P0 = D1 / [ Ke - g ]

Where,

D1=$2.57

Ke=0.1140

g=4.7%

Let plug in the formula

P0= $ 2.57 / [ 0.1140 - 0.047 ]

P0=$2.57/0.067

P0=$ 34.35

Based on this calculation, we can see that the price has fallen from $50.07 to $34.35 which means that Expansion will not be a good option.

Therefore the share price that you would expect after the announcement will be $34.35
