A student looking at the timeline for a student loan on page 60 of the text makes the following​ observation: The text states th
Brrunno [24]

Answer: A. incorrect because part of each payment is to principal and to interest.​ Therefore, only a portion of the payment goes to​ interest, so the full amount should not be included when computing the rate of interest paid.

Explanation:

When paying back a loan, there are two components to the periodic interest payment. The first component is the interest payment. This is the payment to compensate the borrower for loaning out the money and is based on the interest rate and the principal left to be repaid.

The second component goes towards repaying the principal of the loan which in this case is $10,000. When computing the periodic interest rate therefore, the entire amount paid per period should not be used as it would inflate the interest rate.

Month Maintenance Machine Health Number of Shipping Units
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

1. Variable cost = Shipping costs

Fixed cost = Health Insurance

Mixed cost = Maintenance costs

Shipping costs are variable because a unit shipped costs $3.60. The total shipping cost for each month varies according to the units shipped in the month.

Health Insurance costs are fixed as there is no change in cost notwithstanding the number of employees in each month.  The total health insurance cost remains the same every month.

Maintenance costs are mixed for each month, as there is a fixed element and a variable element.

2. Cost function for each cost:

Maintenance = $4,200 + $2.10 per machine hour

Health Insurance = $8,600

Shipping cost = $3.60 per unit

3. Cost function = $12,800 + $2.1m + $3.6s

where m = machine hours

and s =  units shipped

4. The total operating cost for the month

= $46,040

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Month     Maintenance Machine  Health   Number of  Shipping     Units

                     costs        Hours  Insurance  Employees   Costs    Shipped

January          4500       165         8600            68            25778       7160

February        4452       120         8600            75           29664      8240

March            4600       230        8600            92            28674      7965

April               4850        318        8600           105           23058      8405

May                5166       460        8600            89            21294       5915

June              4760       280        8600            87            33282      9245

July                4910       340        8600            93             31428      8730

August         4960       360        8600            88            30924       8415

September  5070       420         8600            95             25110     6975

October      5250       495         8600           102           25866      7185

November   5271        510         8600            97             20124    5590

December  4760       275         8600            94            34596     9610

Cost Function for each cost:

Maintenance cost:

                     Machine Cost

                        Hours

November         510    5271

February           120    4452

Difference       390      819

Variable cost = $2.10 (819/390)

Fixed cost = $4,200 ($5,271 - ($2.10*510))  

Health Insurance:

Fixed cost = $8,600

Shipping cost:

Variable cost = $3.60 per unit

Cost function = $4,200 + $2.10m + $8,600 + $3.60s

= $12,800 + $2.1m + $3.6s

February cost = $12,800 + $2.1(120) + $3.6(8240)

= $12,800 + $252 + $29,664

= $42,716

IF:

Machine hours = 400

Employees = 80

Shipped units = 9,000

The total operating cost for the month will be:

Cost function = $12,800 + $2.1m + $3.6s

= $12,800 + ($2.1 * 400) + ($3.6 * 9,000)

= $12,800 + $840 + $32,400

= $46,040

You are considering investing $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of Treasury bills that pay 5% a
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

amount to be investment in risky portfolio =  $405

amount invest in security x = $243

amount invested in security Y = $162

Explanation:

given data

investing = $1,000

Treasury bills = 5%

optimal weights of X = 60 %

optimal weights of Y = 40 %

expected rate of return x =  14%

expected rate of return y = 10%

solution

we know that

                      weight                     return                     return from risky port

X                     60 %                         14 %                       8.4 %

Y                     40 %                          10 %                       4%

total                                                                                 12.4 %

so here

return from risky portfolio is = 12.4 %

and

return from risk free investment = 5 %

so 'we consider here investment in risky portfolio = x

so investment in risk free  = 1 - x

so we can say that

12.4 % × x + 5 % × (1-x) = 8 %

solve we get

x = 0.405

so investment in risky portfolio = 0.405

so investment in risk free  =0.595

and

amount to be investment in risky portfolio = $1000 × 0.405

amount to be investment in risky portfolio =  $405

and

amount invest in security x = $405 × 60%

amount invest in security x = $243

and

amount invested in security Y = $405 × 60%

amount invested in security Y = $162

Philippe Organic Farms has total assets of $689,400, long-term debt of $198,375, total equity of $364.182, net fixed assets of $
Margarita [4]

Answer:

correct option is  B. 1.40

Explanation:

given data

total assets = $689,400

long-term debt = $198,375

total equity = $364.182

net fixed assets = $512,100

sales = $1,021,500

profit margin = 6.2 percent

solution

we get here first current assets that is express as

current assets = Total assets - net fixed assets   ...................1

put here value

current assets = $689,400 - $512,100

current assets = $177300

and now we get Current liabilities that is express as

Total liabilities  = Total assets - Total equity .............2

Current liabilities + Long term debt = Total assets - Total equity    

Current liabilities = Total assets - Total equity - Long term debt ...........3

put here value

Current liabilities = $689400 - $364182 - $198,375

Current liabilities = $126843  

so here Current ratio will be

Current ratio = current assets ÷ Current liabilities  .............4

Current ratio = \frac{177300}{126843}  

Current ratio = 1.40

so correct option is  B. 1.40
