Answer:

c. An account that pays 0.5 %0.5% per month for three​ years.

Explanation:

We can evaluate all the option using following formula:

EAR = ( 1 + ( r / m ) )^m -1

a.

2.5% every six months for three years

r= 2.5% = 0.025 / 6 =

m = 12/6 = 2

EAR = ( 1 + 0.025  )^2 -1

EAR = 0.050625 = 5.06%

7.5% every 18 months for three years

r= 7.5% for 1.5 years = 7.5% / 18 = 0.4167% per month = 0.004167 per month

EAR = ( 1 + 0.004167 )^12 -1

EAR = 0.051166 = 5.12%

0.5% every month for three years

r= 0.5% = 0.005

EAR = ( 1 + 0.005 )^12 -1

EAR = 0.0616778 = 6.17%

We will prefer an account that pays 0.5 %0.5% per month for three​ years, it pays the highest return.

Answer:

1. Technical improvements cause production costs to decline, which causes supply to increase and prices to decrease.

2. Decreased unemployment causes consumer incomes to increase which causes demand to increase and hence price to increase.

Explanation:

Demand refers to a consumer's desire to purchase a particular good or service at a given time for a specific price. Supply on the other hand, is the willingness of a producer to produce a particular good or service at a given time for specific price.

1. Production cost is a factor that influences supply. For example, cost of labor or raw material cost. When production costs fall, more products can be produced at a lesser cost. Hence'

  1. The supply curve shifts right from S1 to S2.
  2. This causes quantity supplied to increase from QS1 to QS2
  3. And price to fall from P2 to P1. Please refer Diagram 1 in attachment.

2. When unemployment decreases, it means that more people are working in the economy and hence their incomes are also higher. This means there is a higher purchasing power and also higher demand for products. Hence,

  1. The demand curve shifts from D1 to D2.
  2. This causes quantity demanded to increase from QD1 to QD2
  3. And price to increase from P1 to P2.  Please refer Diagram 2 in attachment.

Answer:

9 kanban

Explanation:

The calculation of the number of kanban containers needed is given below:

= (Lead time demand + Safety stock) ÷ kanban size

where,

Lead time demand is

= 1,500 radios × 1 days

= 1,500 radios

Container size = 250 radios

Safety Stock is

= 1 ÷ 2 day × 1,500 radios

= 750 radios

So, the number of kanban containers needed is

= (1,500 radios + 750 radios) ÷ (250 radios)

= 9 kanban

We simply used the above formula to find out the required kanbans

A building acquired at the beginning of the year at a cost of $123,800 has an estimated residual value of $4,800 and an estimate
grigory [225]

Answer:

A. $119,000

B. 10%

C.$11,900

Explanation:

Deprecation is a method used in expensing the cost of an asset.

The depreciable cost = Cost of asset - Salvage value = $123,800 - $4,800 = $119,000

The straight line rate = 1/10= 0.1 = 10%

annual straight-line depreciation = depreciable cost × straight line rate = $119,000 × 0.1 = $11,900

I hope my answer helps you
