Answer:

a. What additional annual cost is $2250

b. Other Benefits of optimal order quantity - Reduces Obsolescence of Stock

Explanation:

The additional annual cost that Garden Variety Flower is <em>the Holding or Carrying Cost</em> of Inventory

Holding or Carrying Cost = Order Quantity/ 2 × Carrying Cost per Unit

Holding Cost at the Usage Level = ( 750/2) × ($2×30%) = $225

Holding Cost at Current Usage = ( 1500/2) × ($2×30%) = $450

Additional Holding Cost                                                   = $2250

Answer:

The annual payment at the end of each year: $4,572.23

Explanation:

The formular for calculating Present value of Annuity is applied in this case to help us find the equal annual payment.

Applying information in the question, we have the annuity that have:

n= 10 as there are 10 equal annual payments paid at the end of each year during 10 years;

i = 8.5% per annum compounded annually, as stated in the question;

PV = Borrowed amount = $30,000;

C = the equal annual payment.

The formular for PV of Annuity: PV = (C/i) x [ 1- (1+i)^(-n)] <=> C = (PV x i) / [ 1- (1+i)^(-n)]

Thus, C = (30,000 x 8.5%) / [ 1- 1.085^(-10) ] = $4,572.23

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The depreciation for 2020 is $233.33

Explanation:

Under the MACRS, computer useful life is 5 years.

The depreciation rate for every year, applying double declining method is: 100% / 5 = 20%. So, depreciation expenses for first year of the computer is calculated as: Cost of the computer x 20% = = 2,000 x 20% = $400.

As the computer is purchased in May, the year 2020 would only account for 7 month out of the first year of depreciation. Thus 2020 depreciation expenses = First year depreciation x 7/12 = 400 x 7/12 = $233.33

1. Should you have a separate checking and saving account?
iris [78.8K]

Back when interest rates were high, I had just one account. I had a money-market checking account that offered good interest rates and unlimited check writing. But those days are long gone.

I want as high an interest rate as I can get for my savings. In order to get those rates, I am using a money-market savings account. All such accounts I’ve seen restrict the number of transactions I can make in a month. I need to be able to pay bills, no matter how many of them there are — and I never ever want to pay fees for excess transactions!

So I have a separate checking account. It pays less than half the interest rate of my savings account, but I can make as many transactions as I want. The bank offers a bill pay application that I use for most payments, and I can write as many checks as I want to. I can transfer money between the accounts quickly.
