Whe need to know the annuity per year to generate a future value of 25,000,000 after 10 years at the given rate of 6.5%

$FV \div \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1 }{rate} = C\\$

FV 25,000,000.00

time 10

rate 0.065

$25,000,000 \div \frac{(1+0.065)^{10} -1}{0.065} = C\\$

C $ 1,852,617.251

Charles Berkle is the manager of Nogain Manufacturing and is interested in doing a cost of quality analysis. The following cost

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

a)

Prevention costs: costs incurred in order to prevent failures or minimize defects, they include maintenance expenses = $11,000
Appraisal costs: costs incurred in order to make sure that the products meet quality standards and customers' expectations, they include inspection costs = $15,000
Internal failure costs: costs incurred due to faulty products or procedures that occur before any good is actually taken out of the facilities, they include scrap and rework ($10,600) and machine breakdown costs ($5,400) = $16,000
External failure costs: costs incurred after the goods leave the facilities, they include warranty expenses ($34,000), product returns due to defects ($6,000) and lost sales due to low quality ($10,000) = $50,000

Quality cost report:

Prevention costs

Machine maintenance expense $11,000 $11,000

Appraisal costs

Inspection cost $15,000 $15,000

Internal failure cost :

Scrap & rework $10,600
Machine breakdown costs $5,400 $16,000

External failure costs :

Warranty expense $34,000
Product returns due to defects $6,000
Estimated lost sales due to poor quality $10,000 <u>$50,000</u>

Total quality cost $92,000

b) What percentage of sales revenue is being spent on prevention and appraisal activities?

total sales revenue = $500,000

prevention and appraisal costs = $26,000

% = $26,000 / $500,000 = 5.2%

c) What percentage of sales revenue is being spent on internal and external failure costs?

internal and external failure costs = $66,000

% = $66,000 / $500,000 = 13.2%

According to the factor price equalization theorem, if country B is labor abundant, then if country B initiates trade with count

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

wages should rise and rents should fall in A

Explanation:

The Factor Price Equalisation Theory states that when two countries trade, the price of identical factors of production will tend to be equalised across the countries. Factors of production include wage rate and rent of capital.

So if a country that is labour abundant trades with another country A there will be tendency for exportation of the excess labour of country B to country A.

As a result country A will become more labour intensive and wages of workers will rise since focus is more on use of labour.

However since less capital will now be used the money spent on renting capital will reduce.

In the office supply store, Brittany bought 17 pens of three kinds: ball pens, gel pens, and ink pens, which cost $0.05, $0.10 a

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

5 ball pens

Explanation:

Let's first assign our variables:

x = number of ball pens = 0.05 each

y = number of gel pens = 0.10 each

z = number of ink pens = 0.25 each

We have three equations there:

She bought 17 pens so this means that if we add all the number of pens together we get 17.

The total cost is $2.05, so if we add the cost of the all the pens we would get $2.05.

Lastly, we know that she bought twice as many gel pens as ink pens.

We can then assume:

x + y + z = 17

0.05x + 0.10y + 0.25 z = 2.05

y = 2z

we will need to use all of these to figure out the number of ball pens:

x + y + z = 17

Substitute the equation we came up for y (y = 2z):

x + 2z + z = 17

x + 3z = 17

x = 17 - 3z

--------------------------

0.05x + 0.10y + 0.25 z = 2.05

0.05x + 0.10(2z) + 0.25z = 2.05

0.05(17-3z) + 0.20z + 0.25z = 2.05

0.85 - 0.15z + 0.20z + 0.25z = 2.05

Combine like terms:

0.85 + 0.3z = 2.05

Subtract both sides by 0.85

0.85 + 0.3z - 0.85 = 2.05 - 0.85

0.3z = 1.2

Divide both sides by 0.3

0.3z/0.3 = 1.2/0.3

z = 4

Now that we have the number of ink pens, let's solve the number of ball pens using one of the formulas we came up with.

x = 17 - 3z

x = 17 - 3(4)

x = 17 - 12

x = 5

If you want to check, just plug in everything that we know.

y = 2x

y = 2(4)

y = 8

---------

5 + 8 + 4 = 17

17 = 17
