Andrej [43]

Answer: $297,353.33

Explanation:

In calculating the Opportunity Cost of using that space with the available data, the following formula can be used (notice that APR is a yearly figure and the rent is monthly),

Opportunity cost = Rent per month *12* (1-tax rate) / APR

= $3,431.00 * 12 * ( 1 - 0.35) / 0.09

= 297353.333333

= $297,353.33

$297,353.33 is the opportunity cost of using this space.

Note the method used above is the faster method but if you want to use the other method, first you change the rent to a monthly figure. Then you divide it by the cost of capital to get the present value. Then you multiply by the After tax rate of (1 - tax rate). It's basically the same as the above though.

Charles Johnson has to make a deposit in his savings account. He has one $20 bill, two $5 dollar bills, seven $1 bills, six quar
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Total deposit is $39

Explanation:

Given

\$20\ bills = 1

\$5\ bills = 2

\$1\ bills = 7

Quarters = 6

Dimes = 5

Required

Determine the total

To do this, we simply multiply each dollar bill or coin with its frequency and add up the results.

i.e.

Total = 1 * \$20 + 2 * \$5 + 7 * \$1  + 6 * Quarters + 5 * Dimes

Total = \$37  + 6 * Quarters + 5 * Dimes

1\ quarter = \$0.25

1\ dime = \$0.1

So:

Total = \$37  + 6 * \$0.25+ 5 * \$0.1

Total = \$37  + \$2

Total = \$39
