Answer:

The quarterly compounding is more profitable

Explanation:

We will compare the total payment under monthly payment to that under quarterly payment and the choose the higher one.

This is done as follows:

Monthly interest =  9.1%/12 = 0.758

number of months =15 × 12 = 180

Monthly payment = ( 1-1.00758^(-180))/0.00758=98.04

Total payment = 98.04 × 180 =17,647.31

Quarterly compounding

Quarterly interest rate = (9.3%/12)×3 = 2.325 %

number of quarter = 4×15 = 60

Quarterly payment = (1-1.002325^(-60))/0.002325= 374.17

Total payment = 374.17× 60 = $22,449.91

The quarterly compounding produces total repayment  a higher than the monthly. Hence, the quarterly repayment is more profitable

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchasing cost= $150,000.

The company estimated that the machine will have a salvage value of $12,000. The machine is expected to be used for 10,000 working hours during its 5-year life.

1) Straight-line:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (150,000 - 12,000)/5= 27,600

<u>2020:</u>

Annual depreciation= (27,600/365)*92 days= $6,956.71

2) Units of activity:

Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in units]*units produced

Annual depreciation= [(150,000 - 12,000)/10,000]*1.700= $23,460

3) Double-declining balance:

Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]

Annual depreciation= 2*27,600= 55,200

<u>2020:</u>

Annual depreciation= 55,200/365*92= 13,913.42

<u>2021:</u>

Annual depreciation= [138,000 - 13,913.42)/5]*2= 49,634.63

A business manager finds that the building expense each month is completely uncorrelated with revenue levels. What should the bu
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The business manager should assume that the building expense is fixed.

Explanation:

Fixed costs are not correlated with the revenue levels.  Within the relevant range, fixed costs remain constant.  They do not vary with the activity levels as variable costs do.  For example, a manufacturer must pay for rent, repairs and maintenance, and utility bills irrespective of the revenue levels at which it is operating.  This is why the business manager always discovers that the building expense each month does not correlate with the revenue levels, unlike the product's variable costs.
