Answer:

40 persons

Explanation:

Given:

Total cost of trip = $560

Number of people Decide not to go = 5 people

raise cost = $2

Assume:

Number of people wants to go = a

Cost per person = b

So, a x b = $560 , b= 560/a

After people decided not to go ,

Total number of people = (a-5)

New cost = (b+2)

So , total cost = (a-5)(b+2) = $560

ab +2a -5b -10 = 560 , where ab = $560

2a -5b = 10

2a -5b = 10

By putthing value of b

2a - 5 (560/a) = 10

2a - (2800 / a) = 10

2a² - 2800 = 10a

2a² -10a - 2800 = 0

a= 40

Total 40 persons wants to go.

a mature manufacturing firm. The company just paid a dividend of $8.65, but management expects to reduce the payout by 5 percent
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

$48.34%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Growth rate = 5%

Required return = 12%

Dividend = $8.65

Based on the above information,

The computation of the current price is shown below:-

Current Price = Dividend × (1 + Growth Rate) ÷ (Required Return - Growth Rate)

= $8.65 × (1 + (-5%)) ÷ (12% - (-5%))

= $48.34%

Therefore for computing the current price we simply applied the above formula.

wariber [46]
Given the table below

\begin{tabular}
{|p {1cm}|p {1.4cm}|p {1.4cm}|p {1.5cm}|p {1.4cm}|p {1.4cm}|}
{Price per hour&Quantity Supplied by Ann&Quantity Supplied by Bob&Quantity Supplied by Carlos&Market Quantity Supplied&Market Quantity Demanded\\[1ex]
\$50&94&35&19&148&5\\
45&93&33&14&140&8\\
40&90&30&10&130&11\\
35&81&27&6&114&16\\
30&68&20&2&90&22\\
25&50&12&0&62&30\\
20&32&7&0&39&39\\
15&20&0&0&20&47\\
10&10&0&0&10&57
\end{tabular}

From the table it can be seen that at the price of $20, the quantity supplied is equal to the quantity demanded equal to 39.

Also notice that at that price, Carlos is not supplying any service.

Therefore, the equilibruim price <span>of tutoring services be if Carlos decided to stop tutoring is $20.</span>

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option A                              

Explanation:

As per the uniform commercial code set by the appropriate government agency of America, delivery of any commodity whether tangible or intangible should take place at the business facility of the supplier. Such facility could be a warehouse or a shop etc. However this is a guideline and not a rule which must be followed.
