Answer:

$490,000.

Explanation:

To find out sales of Opal Company we will use below equation,

Sales = Variable cost + Fixed cost + Target profit

variable cost margin will be (1 - contribution margin)

= 0.7 (1 - 0.3)

we will consider sales as x,

x = 0.70x + $49,000 + 0.20x

x = 0.90x + $49,000

x - 0.90x = $49,000

x = $49,000 / 0.10

x = $490,000.

Sales = $490,000.

Present and Future Values for Different Periods:
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

1. $636

2. $674.16

3. $566.04

4. $534

Explanation:

PV = FV ÷ (1 + r/n)^(t × n)........(1)

PV = present value

FV = Future value

r = rate per period

t = number of years

n = number of compounded period per year

FV = P(1 + r/n)^(t×n)...............(2)

FV = Future value

P = principal

r = rate per period

n = number compounded period per year

t = number of year

NO 1.

P= $600

t = 1

n = 1

r = 6% = 0.06

Using equation 2

FV = 600(1 + 0.06/1)^(1 × 1) = $636

NO 2

P = $600

n = 1

t = 2

r = 0.06

Using equation 2

FV = 600(1 + 0.06/1)^(2 × 1) = $674.16

NO 3.

FV = $600

r = 0.06

t = 1

n = 1

Using equation 1

PV = 600 ÷ (1 + 0.06/1)^(1 × 1) = $566.04

NO 4.

FV = $600

r = 0.06

n = 1

t = 2

Using equation 1

PV = 600 ÷ (1 + 0.06/1)^(2 × 1) = $534
