Answer:

I would go ahead and avail this opportunity. Although it is a wide spread phenomenon that one should only acquire a degree in a field which is at a boom and is possibly going to be successful in the future. But times keep changing. Fields and phenomenon which did not have a chance in the past have now become most successful with unfulfilled potential.

On the other hand, acquiring college education is a luxury. 4 years without paying for it is a chance that nobody should miss. You can come up with creative ideas to make that degree work. Besides, people do not actually get the jobs according to their degrees. So there is a possibility that I would land a job.

amid [387]

Answer:

How much money will you need to have at the moment you retire?

  • $1,287,858

How much money do you need to save every year before retirement?

  • $4,971.33

Explanation:

we have to first determine the amount of money you need to finance your retirement distributions:

using the annuity due present value formula, PV = annuity payment x annuity due factor (PV, 8%, n = 40)

PV = $100,000 x 12.87858 = $1,287,858

now we must use the ordinary annuity future value formula, FV = annuity payment x annuity factor (FV, 8%, n = 40)

annuity payment = FV / annuity factor = $1,287,858 / 259.057 = $4,971.33

Cotrone Beverages makes energy drinks in three flavors: Original, Strawberry, and Orange. Company is currently operating at 75 p
irina [24]

Relevant Information:

The relevant information is as under:

Segmented income statements appear as follows:

Product                                    Original  Strawberry  Orange

Sales                                     65,200   85,600          102,400

Variable costs                     (44,000)   (77,200)  (80,200)

Contribution margin              21,200     8,400    22,200

Fixed costs allocated                (9,400)    (12,000)   (14,200)

Operating profit (loss)       11,800      (3,600)      8,000  

Answer:

The product not be closed because it is generating net cash flows of ($3,060), which will generate loss for the organization. The better option would be to not abandoning the manufacturing of Strawberry.

Explanation:

Relevant costing says that any savings or losses are relevant if it satisfy following three conditions:

  1. Is a cash flow.
  2. Future related (Not arising due to Past bindings).
  3. Differential or Incremental in nature.

Its crystal clear that any inflows and outflows that are considered would be cash in nature, not related to past events it must be arising as a consequence of taking the decision whose consequences are we considering now, I mean it must arise in future due to the decision made which are considering. The last condition is the concept of differential that lies in the heart of relevant costing and is easily understood by following the following steps:

Step 1: What are the losses or savings if we don't make decision?

Step 2: What are the losses or savings if we make the decision?

Step 3: The difference between step one and two is differential or incremental cost.

Here we learned that relevant cost arises if we take the decision (closing manufacturing of Strawberry), and it doesn't arises if we don't take the decision (not abandoning manufacturing of  Strawberry).

Relevant costs associated with the decision are as under:

                                                    Step 1              Step 2        Step 3

                                            Make Decision    If we Don't Differential

Revenue loss                             (85,600)               -          (85,600)

Variable Costs Savings              77,200                 -            77,200

Fixed costs Savings (W1)             5340                   -              5340

Operating Profit                                                                   (3,060)

Working1: Fixed costs Savings

Total Fixed costs =21400+12000+14200 = $35,600

The saving is 15% of the total fixed cost and is as under:

Fixed costs Savings = $35,600 * 15% = $5340

Your younger sister, Linda, will start college in five years. She has just informed your parents that she wants to go to Hampton
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The answer $6,964.4726324 per year  

Explanation: The following elements are to be considered in this case:

- The total amount required for Linda's education is $132,000 ($33,000*4)

-Parents had already started investing $5,300 per year for the past five years. This is a stream of even cash flows, at an interest rate. Considering we are at the point before our parents decided to invest the $5,300 and we want to determine the future value of this fixed payments, we will consider the formula below:

Future Value FV = Cash flow per period C * ([1 + i]^n - 1 )/i where  i is the interest rate and n the number of times or periods

FV= $5,300 * ([1 + 0.11]^5 - 1 )/0.11

FV= $5,300 * 6.22780141

FV= $33,007.347473

Considering they will continue to save $5,300 for five more years, we can adjust the above formula and obtain the future value of the fixed payment of $5,300 over a period of 10 years

FV= $5,300 * ([1 + 0.11]^10 - 1 )/0.11

FV= $5,300 * 16.722008965

FV= $88,626.647515

This implies our parents will have the above amount when Linda is to start college and will require an additional $43,373.35248 ($132,000 - $88,626.647515 ) to have the entire fees at hand.

Now, we have to determine how much should be saved every year for the next five years (when Linda starts school) in order to obtain the amount left to complete Linda's fees.

Considering the formula above, it should be noted that we alraedy know the future value, the interest and the number of years involved. So to get the cash flow or amount to be saved per period,

- Cash Flow per period C = Future value FV/  ([1 + i]^n - 1 )/i

 C = $43,373.35248 /  ([1 + 0.11]^5 - 1 )/0.11

 C = $43.373.35248 / 6.22780141

 C = $6,964.4726324

Thus, in addition to the $5,300 currently being saved by our parents, they will have to save an additional $6,964.4726324 per year so as to obtain the total amount for Linda fees of $132,000 which will be divided into $33,000 per year.

n an elimination reaction, the non-preferred geometry in which the β hydrogen and the leaving group are on the same side of the
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

In an elimination reaction, the non-preferred geometry in which the β hydrogen and the leaving group are on the same side of the molecule is called syn periplanar. According to the Zaitev rule, the major product in a β-elimination has the more substituted double bond. In an E1 reaction, the rate depends on only the alkyl halide concentration. The rate of the E2 reaction increases as the strength of the base increases because the reaction is biolecular and the base appears in the rate equation. Carbocation intermediates are involved in E1 mechanisms. Polar aprotic solvents increase the rate of the E2 reactions. Anti periplanar geometry is the preferred arrangement for any alkyl halide undergoing E2 elimination, regardless of whether it is cyclic or acyclic.
