It is given average hourly wage in united state is $15 per hour

Exchange rate with chine = 6.5 yuan per dolor

Julli [10]

Answer: The parliament is likely to allocate £ 1,23,93,800.62

We arrive at the answer as follows:

Amount allocated by President Obama    $100,000,000

Amount England wants to contribute        20% of President Obama's allocation

Amount England wants to contribute in USD  =

                                              0.2 * 100,000,000 = USD 2,00,00,000  

Exchange Rate                                      $1. 61371/1 pound sterling

We can read the problem as if $1.61371 is equal to 1 pound sterling, how many pound sterlings are equal to $2,00,00,000?

Let number of pound sterlings be x

So, \frac{1.61371}{1}= \frac{100000000}{x}

x = \frac{100000000}{1.61731}

x = 1,23,93,800.62

On January 1, 2009, a U.S. firm made an investment in Germany that will generate $5 million annually in depreciation, converted
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The expected real value (in terms of January 1, 2009, dollars) of the depreciation charge in year 2013 will be $1,958,815.416.

Explanation:

It is expected that the value of the dollar in the German market will fall at the same rate as that of the real market value of the dollar when we envisage the exchange rate will remain the same. Thus the depreciation of the tax write-off in terms of its real value in dollars will fall at 5% every year from 2009 to 2013.

Therefore, at a tax rate of 50% in Germany, a $2.5 million charge on depreciation on the investment of $5 million will result in 2013.

To calculate the real value of the dollar at an inflation of 5% yearly in 2013

When the tax rate in German is 50%, then charges of depreciation of $5 million will equal4$2.5 million in 2013 dollars. When the dollar's real value of this write-off is declining due to the inflation at 5% annually, the real value in 2013 will be calculated as:

Given: $2,500,000 (P/F , 5%, 5years) ;  0.78356 (factor for calculating the amount to be recieved after  5years)

= $2,500,000 * 0.78356

= $1,958,815.416

Economic Ordering Quantity (EOQ). The Gentry Garden Center sells 100,000 bags of lawn fertilizer annually. The optimal safety st
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

1. Annual demand ( D) = 100,000 bags

Ordering cost per order (Co) = $15

Holding cost per item per annum (H) = 15% x  $2 = $0.30

EOQ = √<u>2DCo</u>

                H

EOQ = √<u>2 x 100,000 x $15</u>

                  0.30

EOQ = 3,162 units

2. Maximum inventory

   = Safety stock + EOQ

   = 1,500 + 3,162

   = 4,662 units

3. Average inventory

   = EOQ/2

   = <u>3,162</u>

         2

   = 1,581 units

4. Number of order

   = <u>Annual demand</u>

            EOQ

   = <u>100,000</u>

        3,162

  = 32 times

       

Explanation:

EOQ is the square root of 2 multiplied by annual demand and ordering cost per order divided by  holding cost per item per annum.

Maximum inventory is the aggregate of safety stock and EOQ.

Average inventory is economic order quantity divided by 2

Number of order is the ratio of annual demand to economic order quantity.
