Annual Compound Formula is:

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt

Where:

A is the future value of the investment

P is the principal investment

r is the annual interest rate

<span>n is the number of  interest compounded per year</span>

t is the number of years the money is invested


So for the given problem:

P = $10,000

r = 0.0396

n = 2 since it is semi-annual

t = 2 years

 

Solution:

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt

A = $10,000 ( 1 + 0.0396/2) ^ (2)(2)

A = $10000 (1.00815834432633616)

A = $10,815.83 is the amount after two years

Affluenza" is a condition where: select one:
Taya2010 [7]
<span>Option A. Greater consumption leads to unhappiness. Affluenza as a term was used as far back as the 50s by critics of consumerism to describe a painful, contagious, socially transmitted condition of overload, debt, anxiety, and waste resulting from the dogged pursuit of more. This pursuit leads to more and more unhappiness. In their book "When Too Much is Never Enough" Clive Hamilton and Richard Denniss pose the question: "If the economy has been doing so well, why are we not becoming happier? They argue that affluenza causes overconsumption because there's excess or surplus for rich consumers.</span>

Riggs Company purchases sails and produces sailboats. It currently produces 1,300 sailboats per year, operating at normal capaci
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The president of Riggs has missed something.

She should make the Sail instead of buying because its cheaper to manufacture than purchasing it outside.

Explanation:

<u>Cost of Manufacturing the Sails:</u>

Direct materials        $93

Direct Labor              $83

Total                         $173

The president of Riggs has included the $90 overhead  based on $78,000 of annual fixed overhead that is allocated using normal capacity in the cost of manufacturing the sail which is incorrect.

Riggs Company is operating at 80 % of full capacity, hence utelizing the 20% excess capacity would not expand its fixed costs.

Thus said the current fixed cost are irrelevent for this decison and would be incurred whether or not Riggs Company utilizes the excess capacity

<u>Conclusion:</u>

The cost of making the sail is $173 which is lower than the cost of buying them at $ 258.

I would advise The president of Riggs to make the sail by utilizing the excess capacity since its cheaper than purchasing it outside.

High-Low Method
frozen [14]

Answer:

Requirement 1

<em>High Point = March</em>

<em>Low Point = January</em>

Requirement 2

<em>Variable rate for tanning $0.41 per tanning appointment </em>

<em>Fixed cost per month $1,457</em>

Requirement 3

<em>Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level</em>

Requirement 4

<em>Total predicted cost for September $ 2,482</em>

<em>Total fixed cost for September $1,457</em>

<em>Total predicted variable cost for September $1,025</em>

Explanation:

Requirement 1

High Point = March

Low Point = January

Requirement 2

<em>Variable Cost = Difference in Overhead Cost (High - Low)/ Difference in Activity (High - Low)</em>

                       = $2,810 - $1,744 / 3,300 - 700

                       = $1,066/ 2,600

                       = $0.41

<em>Fixed Cost Component = Total Overhead Cost - Variable Cost × Selected Activity.</em>

Lets Select, January 700 $1,744

Fixed Cost Component = Total Overhead Cost - Variable Cost × Selected Activity.

                                       =  $1,744 - $0.41 × 700

                                       =  $1,457

Requirement 3

Cost formula for tanning services

<em>Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Variable Cost</em>

thus,

Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level

Requirement 4

Total Cost = $1,457 + $0.41 × Activity Level

                 =  $1,457 + $0.41 × 2,500

                 = $ 2,482

The price of a gallon of gasoline was $0.35 in 1972 when the CPI equaled 0.418. The price of a gallon of gasoline was $2.25 in 2
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

increased

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Price of a gallon of gasoline in 1972 = $0.35

CPI in 1972 = 0.418

Price of a gallon of gasoline in 2005 = $2.25

CPI in 2005 = 1.68

Now,

Real cost in 1972 = [ Nominal cost in 1972 ] ÷ [ CPI in 1972 ]

= $0.35 ÷ 0.418

= $0.837

Real cost in 2005 = [ Nominal cost in 2005 ] ÷ [ CPI in 2005 ]

= $2.25 ÷ 1.68

= $1.34

Hence,

The price of gallon of gasoline increased between 1972 and 2005
