Answer:

D. Interpretation: The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00

zeros: x = 3.586 and x = 6.414

Explanation:

We have been given the following daily profit function;

$y=-6(x-5)^{2}+12$

where y is the profit (in hundreds of dollars) of a taco food truck

and x the price of a taco (in dollars)

The zeros of this profit function can be obtained by solving for x in the following equation;

$0=-6(x-5)^{2}+12$

These will simply be the x-intercepts of the profit function. That is the points where the profit function crosses or intersects the x-axis.

Therefore, an interpretation of the zeros of this function would be;

The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00

These zeros can be evaluated graphically. We first obtain the graph of the profit function as shown in the attachment below;

We then determine the x values where the graph crosses the x-axis. These values will represent the zeros of our profit function. From the graph, these points are;

x = 3.586 and x = 6.414

Great Subs Inc., a regional sandwich chain, is considering purchasing a smaller chain, Eastern Pizza, which is currently finance

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

WACC 13.85600%

Explanation:

First we calculate Eastern Pizza CAPM:

$Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)$

risk free = 0.08

market rate = 0.12

premium market = (market rate - risk free) 0.04

beta(non diversifiable risk) = 2

$Ke= 0.08 + 2 (0.04)$

Ke 0.16000

Then we solve for WACC

$WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})$

Ke 0.16000

Equity weight 0.8

Kd 0.08

Debt Weight 0.2

t 0.34

$WACC = 0.16(0.8) + 0.08(1-0.34)(0.2)$

WACC 13.85600%

The company will use the data on eastern Pizza to evualuate project presented to it. Also, it will consider the new tax rate to determinate the tax shield.

In three years, when he is discharged from the Air Force, Steve wants to buy an 8,000 power boat.

eduard

Steve will get $11360 with the process of simple interest.

<h3>what is simple interest?</h3>

Simple interest is calculated based on a loan's principal or the initial deposit into a savings account. Simple interest doesn't compound, therefore a creditor will only charge interest on the principal sum, and a borrower will never be required to pay further interest on the interest that has already accrued.

Rate of interest = 14%

principal + interest = $8000

Time = 3 years

Simple interest

$=\frac{8000 \times 3 \times 14}{100}\\=3360$

Now principal + interest = 8000+3360 = 11360

Therefore, Steve will get $11360.

43) An annuity is set up that will pay $1500 per year for ten years. What is the present value (PV) of this annuity given that t

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

PV= $9,626.49

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash flow= $1,500

Interest rate= 9%

Number of years= 10

First, we will determine the future value, using the following formulas:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= cash flow

FV= {1,500*[(1.09^10) - 1]} / 0.09

FV= $22,789.395

Now, the present value:

PV=FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 22,789.395/(1.09^10)

PV= $9,626.49

Machida Inc. is considering a project that is expected to produce cash inflows of $3,200 per year in years 1-4, with a final cas

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The NPV = $1578.185602 rounded off to $1578.19

As the NPV is positive, the project should be accepted.

Explanation:

The Net Present Value or NPV is a tool used to evaluate projects. It is used with various other tools to decide whether to undertake a project or not. To calculate the Net Present Value or NPV, we take the present value of the cash inflows provided by the project and deduct the initial cost of the project. If the NPV is positive, we should proceed with the project and vice versa.

NPV = CF1 / (1+r) + CF2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+r)^n - Initial Cost

Where,

CF1, CF2, ... represents cash flow in Year 1, Year 2 and so on.

r is the required rate of return

NPV = 3200 / (1+0.17) + 3200 (1+0.17)^2 + 3200 (1+0.17)^3 +

3200 (1+0.17)^4 + 5700 (1+0.17)^5 - 9800

NPV = $1578.185602 rounded off to $1578.19

Grum Corp., a publicly owned corporation, is subject to the requirements for segment reporting.

Orlov [11]

Answer:

Option (d) $5,000,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Reported revenues = $50,000,000

Operating expenses = $47,000,000

Net income = $3,000,000

Payroll costs included in the operating expenses = $15,000,000

Combined identifiable assets of all industry segments = $40,000,000

Now,

If the revenue derived from sales to any single customer is 10% or more of the revenue of an enterprise then the amount of revenue from each customer shall be disclosed.

Therefore,

Grum should disclose major customer data if

sales to any single customer amount at least = 10% of Reported revenues

= 10% of $50,000,000

= $5,000,000

Option (d) $5,000,000
