Answer:
He will have $102,979 in his retirement account in 10 years.
Explanation:
Annual Payment = $2,000
Number of Year = n = 10
Interest rate = i = 5%
Compounded Quarterly
Future value after 10 years
FV = A [ ( ( 1 + ( r / m )^mt ) - 1 / ( r / m )
FV = $2,000 [ ( ( 1 + ( 0.05 / 4 )^40 ) - 1 / ( 0.05 / 4 )
Future value = $102,979
So, Ira Schwab will have $102,979 in his retirement account in 10 years.
Answer:
A. 1/3 computers
B. 0.6 computers
Explanation:
A. The opportunity cost incurred by the US to make cars is the number of computers it would have to give up to make a car.
The US can either make 12 cars or 4 computers. For every car made therefore the US forgoes;
= 4/12
= 1/3 computers.
B. The same logic applies to Japan. They can either make 10 cars or 6 computers.
Their opportunity cost for cars is therefore;
= 6/10
= 0.6 computers
Answer:
$27.2
Explanation:
First we have to calculate the total estimated manufacturing overheads which shall be determined as follows:
Estimated total manufacturing overheads=Variable manufacturing overhead+ Fixed manufacturing overheads
Variable manufacturing overhead=Estimated labour hours*manufacturing overhead per labour hour
=75,000*$10.70=$802,500
Fixed manufacturing overheads=$1,237,500
Estimated total manufacturing overheads=$802,50+$1,237,500
=$2,040,000
Now we will compute the predetermined overhead rate which shall be determined using the following formula:
Predetermined overhead rate=Estimated total manufacturing overheads/Estimated labour hours
Predetermined overhead rate=$2,040,000/75,000=$27.2
