Nikitich [7]

Answer:

11.61%

Explanation:

First, find the annual percentage return (APR) of this annuity. Using a financial calculator, input the following;

Recurring payment; PMT = -450

Future value ; FV = 27,000

Duration of investment ; N = 4*12 = 48 months

One -time present value; PV = 0

then compute interest rate; CPT I /Y= 0.92% (this is monthly rate)

APR = 0.92*12 = 11.035%

Effective Annual Rate (EAR) formula is as follows;

EAR = (1+ $\frac{APR}{m}$ ) ^m -1

EAR = 1+ $\frac{0.11035}{12}$ )^12 -1

EAR = 1.1161 -1

EAR = 0.1161 or 11.61%

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

37.5%

Explanation:

The percentage change in the price of a jar of peanut butter, using the midpoint method, is:

$P_B = \frac{3-2}{\frac{3+2}{2}}*100=40\%$

The percentage change in sales of jelly is 15%.

The cross elasticity of demand between peanut butter and jelly is:

$E = \frac{15\%}{40\%}*100\%\\E=37.5\%$

The cross elasticity of demand is 37.5%

Which of the following statements is correct? Group of answer choices The normal balance of revenue is a debit. The normal balan

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The normal balance of liabilities is a credit.

Explanation:

In the double entry system one account must be debited in order for the other to be credited.

There are different balances for each account. For the accounts with normal credit balance a credit causes it to increase while a debit decreases it.

For accounts with negative balance a credit reduces its balance while a debit increases its balance.

- Asset: Debit

- Expense: Debit

- Dividends: Debit

- Liability: Credit

- Owner’s Equity: Credit

- Revenue: Credit

- Retained Earnings: Credit

Liabilities are debt owed by a business. When payment is given out to settle a debt (a debit) it reduces to amount a business owes.

If more loans are collected (a credit) the liability figure increases.

So liability has a normal credit balance

Office supplies $45,000

Depreciation on building and equipment $80,000

Explanation:

Variable Costs vary with the level of production. Examples are Direct Materials and Direct labor.

Fixed Costs remain constant for any production level. Examples are Depreciation and Utilities such as electricity.

A growth in Sales will affect the Variable Costs only. As production increases to meet the 20 percent growth in sales so do these costs since they vary in direct proportion to the level of production.
