Answer:

d. The cost of producing blue jeans will fall, and the supply curve for blue jeans will shift to the right

Explanation:

If the price of cotton falls, the cost of producing blue jeans would fall. As a result of the fall in the cost of production, more producers would be attracted to the industry and production would increase. Increase in supply of blue jeans would shift the supply curve to the right.

O'Brien Ltd.'s outstanding bonds have a $1,000 par value, and they mature in 25 years. Their nominal yield to maturity is 9.25%,

kozerog [31]

Answer:

8.99%

Explanation:

For this question we use the PMT function that is presented on the excel spreadsheet. Kindly find it below:

Given that,

Present value = $975

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 9.25% ÷ 2 = 4.625%

NPER = 25 years × 2 = 50 years

The formula is shown below:

= PMT(Rate,NPER,-PV,FV,type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the PMT is $44.96

Now the annual PMT is

= $44.96 × 2

= $89.92

So, the coupon interest rate is

= $89.92 ÷ $1,000

= 8.99%

The following information is available for Rodriguez Industries:

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$183,200

Explanation:

Given that,

Direct labor = $86,000

Total current manufacturing costs = $381,000

Manufacturing overhead is applied to production:

= 130% of direct labor cost

= 1.30 × $86,000

= $111,800

Total manufacturing costs = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead.

$381,000 = Direct material + $86,000 + $111,800

Direct material = $381,000 - $86,000 - $111,800

= $183,200

Therefore, the amount of direct materials used in production is $183,200.

The profit, P, in dollars for manufacturing n units of a certain product is given by the formula P = 3n2 - 90n - 720. (Assume th

sesenic [268]

Answer:

$n=40$

Explanation:

We want to know the value of $n$ when $P=480$

$P=3n^2-90n-720\\480=3n^2-90n-720\\3n^2-90n-720-480=0\\3n^2-90n-1200=0\\3(n^2-30n-400)=0\\n^2-30n-400=0$

From here, we can find the factors of the quadratic equation, we need two numbers that multiplied give -400 and added -30. Since they are factors of 400, we can choose -20x20 or -40x10. When adding -20 and 20 the result is zero, but the sum of -40 and 10 is -30. Then:

$n^2-30n-400=0\\(n-40)(n+10)=0\\$

The solutions of the quadratic equation are $n-40=0$ and $n+10=0$ :

$n_1=40\\n_2=-10$

Since $n$ is a positive integer:

$n=40$
