Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: For the 10th worker, the marginal revenue product is $120 per day.

If she hires 9 workers then the store can sell 200 pounds of produce per day

If she hires 10 workers then the store can sell 230 pounds of produce per day

Extra units produce from hiring 10th worker = 230 - 200 = 30 pounds of produce per day

Store earns = $4 for each pound

Therefore, the marginal revenue product for the 10th worker = selling price of each pound × Extra units produce from hiring 10th worker

= $4 × 30

=$120

You plan to invest in bonds that pay 6.0%, compounded annually. If you invest $10,000 today, how many years will it take for you
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The answer is 16 years.

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the value of an investment that is compounded annually is given by:

V(n)=(1+R)^nP

Where:

n is the number of years the investment is compounded,

R is the annual interest rate,

P is the principal investment.

We know the following:

25000=(1+0.06)^n \times 10000

And we want to clear the value <em>n</em> from the equation.

The problem can be resolved as follows.

<u>First step:</u> divide each member of the equation by 10,000:

\frac{ 25000}{10000}=(1+0.06)^n \times \frac{ 10000}{10000}

2.5=(1.06)^n

<u>Second step:</u> apply logarithms to both members of the equation:

log(2.5)=log (1.06)^n

<u>Third step:</u> apply the logarithmic property logA^n=n.logA in the second member of the equation:

log(2.5)=n.log (1.06)

Fourth step: divide both members of the equation by log1.06

\frac{log(2.50)}{log (1.06)} =n

n= 15.7252

We can round up the number and conclude that it will take 16 years for $10,000 invested today in bonds that pay 6% interest compounded annually, to grow to $25,000.

The hedging gain loss can be calculated as:

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The answer is: D) $5,800

Explanation:

The doubtful accounts should have a total balance of $6,000, representing 1% of total sales (= $600,000 x 1%).

Since doubtful accounts balance is only $200, you must entry a debit record of $5,800 (so that the total balance of that account is $6,000).
