Answer:

The answer is $86,167.57 (to 2 decimal places)

Explanation:

In this question, we are to calculate the present value of a certain amount that is compounded semiannually, and after 10 years, yields a future value of $200,000. To calculate this, we will use the formula for calculating present value as follows:

PV = FV ÷ (1+\frac{r}{n})^{n*t}

where:

PV = present value = ???

FV = future value = $200,000

r = interest rate in decimal = 8.6% = 0.086

n = compounding period pr year = semiannually = 2

t = time of compounding in years = 10

Therefore,

PV = 200,000 ÷ (1+\frac{0.086}{2})^{2*10}

PV = 200,000 ÷ (1.043)^{20} = $86,167.57

The Engine Division provides engines for the Tractor Division of a company. The standard unit costs for the Engine Division are:
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: $2,400

Explanation:

The best transfer price is the related cost to the division in question and this is usually the Variable cost of production.

Since there is excess capacity, we can assume that no benefits will be lost in transit.

To calculate therefore, we simply add up all the Variable costs of production.

= Direct labor + Direct Material + Variable Overhead.

= 1,300 + 700 + 400

= $2,400

$2,400 is the best transfer price to avoid transfer price problems.
