Answer:

Elastic

Explanation:

For determining whether the business faces elastic, unitary, or inelastic demand, first we have to find out the change in price and change in quantity percentage which is shown below:

Quantity would be = $10,000 ÷ $12 = 833

                               = $15,000 ÷ $8 = 1,875

Now change in quantity would be

= ($1,875 - $833) ÷ ($833) × 100

= 125%

And the change in price would be  

= ($8 - $12) ÷ ($12) × 100

= -33.33%

As we can see that price is decreased by 33.33% which increases the revenue by 125% reflect the high change so the demand is elastic. If the change in price impacts the demand by less change then the demand is inelastic.  

And, if the price and demand are equal with respect to change then it would be unit elastic

Your father is 50 years old and will retire in 10 years. He expects to live for 25 years after he retires, until he is 85. He wa
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

It will need  $ 107,120.321 dolalr per year to achieve his retirement goal

Explanation:

We first must calcualte the prsent value of the 25 payments with equal worth of 60,000 dollar of today.

First we move the 60,000 forward 10 years

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 60,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.05000

60000 \: (1+ 0.05)^{10} = Amount

Amount 97,733.68

Now, we calculate the present value of an annuity considering this 5% inflation

C_0 \times \frac{(1+r)^n-(1+g)^n}{r-g}  = PV

g 0.05

r 0.08

C 97,734

n 25

$ 1,778,492.341

Then, decrease this by the amounnt already saved by our father:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 105,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.08000

105000 \: (1+ 0.08)^{10} = Amount

Amount 226,687.12

Additional saving needed:

1,778.492-34 - 226,687.12 = 1.551.805,22

Now, we solve the annual saving to achieve this future value:

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

PV 1,551,805.22

time 10

rate 0.08

1551805.22 \div \frac{(1+0.08)^{10} -1}{0.08} = C\\

C  $ 107,120.321

At the beginning of the recent period, there were 900 units of product in a department, 35% completed. These units were finished
Ivan

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

we are given that a company starts with 900 units which are 35% complete that means during the production period they are completed, then we are further told that 5000 units are started and completed therefore we add the 900 units we started with with the 5000 units that are started and completed during the period then we are told that at the end of the process 800 units are still in process and 25% completed there fore we add the 25% of 800 units to the 5900 units that are completed therefore we calculate the equivalent units produced by the department as follows:

900 units + 5000 units + 800 units x 25% = 6100 units that are completed on a weighted average method.

Using the income statement for Times Mirror and Glass Co., compute the following ratios:
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

(A) Interest coverage charge ratio= 6.21

(B) Fixed charge coverage = 2.84

(C) Profit margin ratio= 8.57%

(D) Total assets turnover= 1.55

(E) Return on assets= 13.26%

Explanation:

(A) The Interest coverage charge ratio can be calculated as follows= EBIT/Interest expense

= 45,300/7,300

= 6.21

(B) The fixed charge coverage can be calculated as follows

= income before fixed charge + interest/fixed charges + interest

= 45,300+13,300/7,300+13,300

= 58,600/20,600

= 2.84

(C) The profit margin ratio can be calculated as follows

= Net income/sales × 100

= 22,800/266,000 × 100

=0.0857 × 100

= 8.57%

(D) The total assets turnover can be calculated as follows

= Sales/total assets

= 266,000/172,000

= 1.55

(E) The return on assets can be calculated as follows

= Net income/Total assets × 100

= 22,800/172,000 × 100

= 0.13255×100

= 13.26%
