Answer:

He earns after expenses: $210

Explanation:

If 50 cars park in his lot during the day, he will earn:

50*$5= $250

But he must include expenses to know his real profit. The only expense that the problem states is the lot rent, which is $40 per day. Expenses must be subtracted from his earnings:

$250-$40= $210

On a day, he earns after expenses: $210

Answer:

The answer is: D) A 529 Education Savings Plan

Explanation:

A 529 Education Savings Plan is designed specifically to cover educational expenses and most important, its tax free.

Coverdell Education Accounts don't allow contributions after age 18.

If the client prepays her college tuition plan, she will only cover educational unit expenses, but not all her expenses.

A five year savings bond shouldn't even be considered for this example.

Michael owns a machine shop. In reviewing the shop's utility bills for the past 12 months, he found that the highest bill of $2,

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Highest cost= $2,400 when the machines worked 1,000 machine hours.

Lowest cost= $2,200 when the machines worked 500 machine hours.

To calculate the variable cost per unit and total fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (2,400 - 2,200) / (1,000 - 500)

Variable cost per unit= $0.4 per hour

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 2,400 - (0.4*1,000)= $2,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 2,200 - (0.4*500)= $2,000

Total cost= 2,000 + 0.4x

x= machine hour

Finally, the total cost for 1,200 machine hours:

Total cost= 2,000 + 0.4*1,200

Total cost= $2,480

One bond has a coupon rate of 5.4%, another a coupon rate of 8.2%. Both bonds pay interest annually, have 13-year maturities, an

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a. rate or return bond 1 6.6% bond 2 7.71%

b. Does the higher-coupon bond give a higher rate of return? yes

Explanation:

bond 1 has a coupon rate of 5.4%

bond 2 has a coupon rate of 8.2%

yield to maturity formula = {C + [(Face value - market value) / n]} / [(Face value + market value) / 2]

assume bond 1's face value = $1,000

coupon = 54

n = 13

YTM = 7.5%

0.075 = {54 + [(1,000 - M) / 13]} / [(1,000 + M) / 2]

0.075 x [(1,000 + M) / 2] = 54 + [(1,000 - M) / 13]

0.075 x (500 + 0.5M) = 54 + 76.92 - 0.0769M

37.50 + 0.0375M = 130.92 - 0.0769M

0.0375M + 0.0769M = 130.92 - 37.50

0.1144M = 93.42

M = 93.42 / 0.1142 = $818.04

rate of return = $54 / $818.04 = 0.066 = 6.6%

assume bond 2's face value = $1,000

coupon = 82

n = 13

YTM = 7.5%

0.075 = {82 + [(1,000 - M) / 13]} / [(1,000 + M) / 2]

0.075 x [(1,000 + M) / 2] = 82 + [(1,000 - M) / 13]

0.075 x (500 + 0.5M) = 82 + 76.92 - 0.0769M

37.50 + 0.0375M = 158.92 - 0.0769M

0.0375M + 0.0769M = 158.92 - 37.50

0.1144M = 121.42

M = 121.42 / 0.1142 = $1,063.22

rate of return = $82 / $1,063.22 = 0.07712 = 7.71%
