As winner of a breakfast cereal competition, you can choose one of the following prizes: a. $180,000 at the end of five years. b

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

i. Discounted cashflow equations.

a. $180,000 at the end of five years.

This is a lump sum present value/ discounted cashflow which can be calculated as;

Formula = 180,000 / ( 1 + r)^n

= 180,000/ ( 1 + 12%)^5

= $102,136.83

b. $11,400 a year forever

This is a perpetuity. The present value/ discounted cashflow of a perpetuity is calculated as;

Formula = Amount/rate

= 11,400/12%

= $95,000

c. $19,000 for each of 10 years.

This is an annuity. The formula for calculating the Present value/ discounted cashflow of an annuity is;

$Formula = Annuity * [\frac{( 1 - (1 + i)^{-n} )}{i} ]$ where i is interest rate and n is number of periods

$= 19,000 * [\frac{( 1 - (1 + 0.12)^{-10} )}{0.12} ]$

= $107,354.24

d. $6,500 next year and increasing thereafter by 5% a year forever.

This is a growing perpetuity. The present value/ discounted cashflow formula is;

= Amount / ( discount rate - growth rate)

= 6,500 / ( 12% - 5%)

= $92,857.14

ii. Choose $19,000 for each of 10 years as it has the highest present value.

how can the size of the industrial/service sector and the agriculture employment rate indicate the level of industrialization?

andriy [413]

Answer:

A larger industrial and service sector, and a larger number of people working outside of agriculture, can indicate a higher level of industrialization in the economy and vice versa. This means that the size of industrial service and the sector of agriculture employment rate indicates the level of industrialization because if the agriculture employment is higher than the industrial service it means that the country is not fully developed yet and therefore the level of industrialization is lower. But if the industrial service is higher than the agriculture employment that suggests or indicates that the country is developing or developed. For example in the United States the size of the industrial/service sector is much larger than it's agricultural employment and therefore this should suggest that country is much more industrialized or developed and the United States is. In comparison you take a developing country such as Chad and you can see that the agricultural employment is higher than the size of the industrial/service sector and in relation to this you can see that Chad must have a lower level of industrialization and in fact it does.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the lower limit for setting the transfer price will be the variable cost of production for coil division. This is because the coil division price for it's coils is what is being looked at since it is determined by their production output and their capacity to meet the compressor division's requirements.

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Calculate the efficiency variance for variable overhead setup costs.

This will be calculated as:

= Standard Hours - Actual Hours) × Standard rate

= (15000/225 × 5.25 - 15000/250 × 5) × 38

= (350 - 300) × 38

= 50 × 38

= 1900 Favourable

2) Calculate the rate variance for variable overhead setup costs.

This will be:

= Standard rate- Actual rate) × Actual Hour

= (38-40) × (15000/250 × 5)

= -2 × 300

= -600 Unfavourable

3) Calculate the flexible-budget spending variance for variable overhead setup costs.

This will be the difference between the standard cost and the actual cost. This will be:

= (15000/225×5.25 ×38) - (15000/250×5 ×40)

= 13300 - 12000

= 1300 Favourable

4) Calculate the spending variance for fixed setup overhead costs.

what formular did you use.

This will be:

= Standard Cost - Actual Cost

= 9975-12000

= -2025 Unfavorable
