American Chemical Company manufactures a chemical compound that is sold for $52 per gallon. A new variant of the chemical has be

en discovered, and if the basic compound were processed into the new variant, the selling price would be $83 per gallon. American expects the market for the new compound variant to be 8,000 gallons initially and determines that processing costs to refine the basic compound into the new variant would be $160,000.

Answer:

If American produces the new compound, profit will increase by $88,000

Explanation:

increase in selling price = selling price of new variant of chemical - selling price of chemical compound

                                         = $83 - $52

                                         = $31

Net increase in profit = total increase in selling price - additional processing cost

                                    = $31*8000 - $160000

                                    = $248000 - $160000

                                    = $88,000

Therefore, If American produces the new compound, profit will increase by $88,000.

net increase in profit =

1. If you were going to buy a fuel-efficient car, which three would you consider? Why? Answer:
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Ford Fusion, Toyota Corolla and BMW i3

Explanation:

Fuel economy and fuel efficiency is one of the most important thing to consider when buying a car.

In United States, nearly 8 thousand gallons of petroleum are consumed by cars everyday. This cost a lot to the people's purse and most importantly it costs the atmosphere.

When we burn or use more fuel, the atmosphere gets more polluted by the exhaust of the fuel burning, and the world oil supply is depleting faster. This results in the rise of gasoline price. Thus, it is very necessary to plan before buying cars.

I would consider the cars Ford Fusion, Toyota Corolla and the BMW i3 while planning to buy a car because they are the most fuel efficient cars available in the U.S. They are also equipped with latest technology like cruise control which reduces the fuel consumption of the car.

The 2020 Ford fusion is a 6 speed automatic front wheel drive which gives the best driving experience and less energy wastage.

Carter Corporation made sales of $900 million during 2016. Of this amount, Carter collected cash for $871 million. The company's
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: (a) $295 million

(b) $326 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $900 million during 2016

Cash = $871 million

Cost of goods sold = $280 million

Expenses for the year totaled = $325 million

Paid for Inventory = $375 million

Paid for everything else = $285 million

Beginning cash = $115 million

(a) Net Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Expenses for the year totaled

                        = $900 - $280 - $325

                        = $295 million

(b) Carter's cash balance at the end of 2016:

= Cash + Beginning cash - Paid for Inventory - Paid for everything else

= $871 + $115 - $375 - $285

= $326 million

Marilyn has a biweekly gross pay of $810 and claims 3 federal withholding allowances. Marilyn has all of the following deduction
frutty [35]

The net pay of Marilyn will increase by $18.15 due to the increase in the federal withholding allowances from 3 to 4.

<h3>The computation of net pay considering various federal withholding allowances</h3>

Given,

Gross pay =$810

3 Federal withholding allowances =$37 (taken from the reference table)

4 Federal withholding allowances =$22 (taken from the reference table)

Federal state tax rate =21%

First, the state tax rate and the total amount of withholding for 3 Federal withholding allowances are computed:

\begin{aligned}\text{State Tax}&=\text{Claim Amount}\times\text{Federal State Tax Rate}\\&=\$37\times21\%\\&=\$7.77\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}\text{Total Amount of 3 withholdings}&=\text{Claim Amount}+\text{State Tax}\\&=\$37+\$7.77\\&=\$44.77\end{aligned}

Now, the state tax rate and the total amount of withholding for 4 Federal withholding allowances are computed:

\begin{aligned}\text{State Tax}&=\text{Claim Amount}\times\text{Federal State Tax Rate}\\&=\$22\times21\%\\&=\$4.62\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}\text{Total Amount of 4 withholdings}&=\text{Claim Amount}+\text{State Tax}\\&=\$22+\$4.62\\&=\$26.62\end{aligned}

The difference in the net pay will be the difference between $44.77 and $26.62, which is $18.15.

Therefore, Marilyn withholding will decrease from $44.77 to $26.62 that is increasing the net pay by $18.15

Your trip to was great, but it unfortunately ran a bit over budget. However, you just received an offer in the mail to transfer
serg [7]

Answer:

with the new rate we will pay in 58 months.

if there is 2% commision charge: 59.35 = 60 months

Explanation:

Currently we owe 10,000

This will be transfer to a new credit card with a rate of 6.2%

We are going to do monthly payment of 200 dollars each month

and we need to know the time it will take to pay the loan:

We use the formula for ordinary annuity and solve for time:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C  $200.00

time n

rate 0.005166667 (6.2% rate divide into 12 months)

PV $10,000.0000

200 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0051667)^{-n} }{0.0051667} = 10000\\

We arrenge the formula and solve as muhc as we can:

(1+0.0051667)^{-n}= 1-\frac{10000\times0.0051667}{200}

(1+0.0051667)^{-n}= 0.74166667

Now, we use logarithmics properties to solve for time:

-n= \frac{log0.741667}{log(1+0.0051667)

-57.99227477 = 58 months

part B

If there is a charge of 2% then Principal = 10,000 x 102% = 10,200

we use that in the formula and solve:

(1+0.0051667)^{-n}= 1-\frac{10200\times0.0051667}{200}

(1+0.0051667)^{-n}=0.73650000

-n= \frac{log0.7365}{log(1+0.0051667)

-59.34880001 = 59.35 months
