Answer:

$23,977.29

Explanation:

In order to determine how much Marko would be willing to pay, we have to calculate the present value of the ABC Co.

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator:

Cash flow in year 1 =$4,800

Cash flow in year 2 = $9,800

Cash flow in year 3 = $16,000

I = 11%

Present value = $23,977.29

To find the PV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

sweet [91]

Given:
Actual Production 6,000 units @ 1.5 standard hours per unit.
Budgeted hours: 10,000
Fixed overhead cost per unit is $0.50 per hour.

6000 units * 1.5 std. hrs/unit = 9,000 hours

Actual hours: 9,000 hours * $0.50 per hour = $4,500
Budgeted hours: 10,000 hours * $0.50 per hour = $5,000

Fixed Factory Overhead Volume Variance = $5,000 - $4,500 = $500 UNFAVORABLE.

It is unfavorable because the production is inefficient. It is more favorable if the produced units are higher than 6,000 units and the actual hours of production are more than the budgeted hours of production.

Paulina Lesky is 27 years old and has accumulated $7,500 in her self-directed defined contribution pension plan. Each year she c

zimovet [89]

Answer:

The answer is "Option D".

Explanation:

The amount accrued in the pension system until now $= 7500$

Danger or security account proportion $= 20 \%$

The percentage of the amount kept in a safe account $(PV) = 7500\times 20\% = 1500\%$

Number of investment years owned by $(n)=63-27=36$

Risk-free return rate $I = 3\%$

Combined total amount up to age 63 (formula for the current value) = $Present \ value\times (1+i)^n$

$=1500\times (1+3\%)^{36}\\\\=4347.417492$

The contribution is $\$2000$ a year and the employer corresponds with the same amount for the pension plan.

Total annual contribution $= 2000+2000 = 4000$

Risk-free or healthy account proportion $= 20\%$

Amount invested annually $(P) = 4000\times 20\% = 800 \ (Risk \ free)$

Annual deposit amount (n) for years $=63-27 =36$

Returns free of risk $I = 3\%$

An cumulative sum due to an annuity $= P\times \frac{(((1+i)^n)-1)}{i}$

$=800\times \frac{(((1+3\%)^{36})-1)}{3\%}\\\\=50620.75541$

Total amount accumulated in safe account $= FV\ of \ PV + FV$ of annuity

$=4347.417492+50620.75541\\\\=54968.1729\\\\=54968$
