A manufacturer has modeled its yearly production function P (the monetary value of its entire production in millions of dollars)
Vinvika [58]

Answer: P(120,30)= $1,218,365.5

So when the manufacturer invests $30 million in capital and 120,000 hours in labour yearly, the monetary value of production is about $1.2 million.

Explanation:

The Cobb-Douglas production function expresses the technological relationship between two inputs (labour and capital).

Since  

P(L,K)=1.47L^0.65 K^0.35 (equation 1)

we simply substitute L=120,000 and K=30,000,000 into equation 1.  

Thus, P(120,30)= 1.47(120,000)^0.65 (30,000,000)^0.35

<em>(Recall that L is in thousand of hours and K is in millions of dollars).</em>

P(120, 30)= 1.47(2002.02)(413.99)

Thus, P(120,30)= 1218365.475

P(120,30)= $1,218,365.5

P(120, 30)= $1.2 million

So when the manufacturer invests $30 million in capital and 120,000 hours in labour yearly, the monetary value of production is about $1.2 million

A gift shop sells 2000 boxes of scented candles a year. The ordering cost is $100 for scented candles, and holding cost is $10 p
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Minimun cost: $2000

Explanation:

We solve for the optimal order size using the

Economic Order Quantity:

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}

<u>Where: </u>

D = annual demand = 2,000 boxes

S= setup cost = ordering cost = $ 100

H= Holding Cost = $10.00

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2(2,000)(100)}{10}}

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{40,000}

EOQ 200

It should order: 2,000 demand / 200 order size =  10 times

At a cost of 1,000 dollar (100 units x $ 10)

It will face an average inventory of 100 units thus holding cost:

100 units x 10 dollar per unit = 1,000

Total cost: 1,000 + 1,000 = 2,000

Both Bond Sam and Bond Dave have 7.3 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Sam has three
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Sam change:   -5.13%

Dave change -18.01%

Explanation:

If interest rate increase by 2%

then the YTM of the bond will be 9.3%

We need eto calcualte the present value of  the coupon and maturity of the bond at this new rate:

<em><u>For the coupon payment we use the formula for ordinary annuity</u></em>

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

Coupon payment: 1,000 x 7.3% / 2 payment per year: 36.50

time 6 (3 years x 2 payment per year)

YTM seiannual: 0.0465 (9.3% annual /2 = 4.65% semiannual)

36.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0465)^{-6} }{0.0465} = PV\\

PV $187.3546

<u><em>For the maturity we calculate usign the lump sum formula:</em></u>

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity: $ 1,000.00

time: 6 payment

rate: 0.0465

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.0465)^{6} } = PV  

PV   761.32

Now, we add both together:

PV coupon $187.3546 + PV maturity  $761.3154 = $948.6700

now we calcualte the change in percentage:

948.67/1,000 - 1 = -0.051330026 = -5.13

For Dave we do the same:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 36.50

time 40

rate 0.0465

36.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0465)^{-40} }{0.0465} = PV\\

PV $657.5166

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   40.00

rate  0.0465

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.0465)^{40} } = PV  

PV   162.34

PV c $657.5166

PV m  $162.3419

Total $819.8585

Change:

819.86 / 1,000 - 1 = -0.180141521 = -18.01%
