Carmel Company has a frequent buyer program for its customers, where the customers can attain an "elite" level based on the numb

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

a.Titanium = $2,890,500

Platinum = $5,185,000

b. Platinum is more profitable

Explanation:

The computation of given question is shown below:

For Titanium

Total gross margin = 5,000 × $1,590

= $7,950,000

Salaries and bonus of Customer representative = ($68,000 × 5,000 ÷ 200) + (1% × $7,950,000)

= $1,700,000 + $79,500

= $1,779,500

b.

Promotion cost = $2,850,000 × 80%

= $2,280,000

Excess of gross margin over customer costs = Total gross margin - Salaries and bonus of Customer representative - Promotion cost

= $7,950,000 - $1,779,500 - $2,280,000

= $2,890,500

For Platinum

Total Gross margin = 20,000 × $ 325

= $6,500,000

Salaries and bonus of Customer representative = ($68,000 × 20,000 ÷ 2,000) + (1% × $6,500,000 )

= $680,000 + $65,000

= $745,000

Cost of promotion = $2,850,000 × 20%

= $570,000

Since, 80% is allocated for promotion expenses of titanium so we assume 20% for Platinum

Excess of gross margin over customer costs = Total Gross margin - Salaries and bonus of Customer representative - Cost of promotion

= $6,500,000 - $745,000 - $570,000

= $5,185,000

B. Since, Platinum is higher than Titanium. So, Platinum is more profitable.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:a.

It would increase by $500,000 multiplied by the reciprocal of the required reserve ratio.

Explanation:

A bank will often hold government securities as an asset. If a bank were to sell S500,000 in government securities to an individual who paid for the bond in cash and the bank placed this cash in its vault, by how much would the money supply change as a result - It would increase by $500,000 multiplied by the reciprocal of the required reserve ratio.

The money supply is the entire stock of currency and other liquid instruments circulating in a country's economy and is given by the formula:

MONEY SUPPLY = RESERVES X MONEY MULTIPLIER

Therefore the bank reserves increasing in the scenario will increase money supplier by the effect of the money multiplier or the reciprocal of the required reserve ratio.

Suppose the required reserve ratio is 20 percent, and the Fed buys $1 million worth of bonds from the public. If the public depo

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Increase directly by $1 million and an additional lending capacity of $4 million will be created for the banking system.

Explanation:

The formula for increase in money supply is

Increase in money supply = (1 / Required reserve ratio) * Excess reserve.

Now, we have, required reserve ratio of 20%.

That means, out of $1 million deposit, required reserve = ($1,000,000 * 0.20) = $200,000.

Now, we knew that, Total reserve = required reserve + excess reserve

Total Reserve = $1,000,000 and required reserve = $200,000.

So, Excess reserve = $1,000,000 - $200,000 = $800,000.

Now, Increase in money supply = (1 / 0.20) * $800,000 = $4 million.

That means,

If the public deposits this amount into transactions accounts, the money supply will:

Increase directly by $1 million and an additional lending capacity of $4 million will be created for the banking system.
