Answer:

There were 9 cats at the shelter on Wednesday.

Explanation:

Per day cost to care for each cat = $2.00

Per day cost to care for each dog = $6.50

Total Cost on Wednesday = $44.00

Suppose

Number of cats = C

Number of dogs = D

According to given condition

C + D = 13 (Equation 1)

( each cat's per day cost x Number of cats ) + ( each dog's per day cost x Number of dogs ) = Total coat

2C + 6.5D = 44 (Equation 2)

Multiply (Equation 1) by 2 and we get

2C + 2D = 26 (Equation 3)

Subtract (Equation 3) from (Equation 2)

2C + 6.5D - 2C - 2D  = 44 -26

4.5D = 18

D = 18/4.5

D = 4

by placing value of D in (Equation 1)

C + 4 = 13

C = 13-4

C = 9

Ms. Towne is buying a home for $250,000 and is putting down 20% cash on the purchase. She is financing the rest with a 30-yr, fi
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

$180

Explanation:

the monthly payment = principal / annuity factor

  • principal = $250,000 x 80% = $200,000
  • PV annuity factor, 360 periods, 0.38542%= 194.4995527

monthly payment = $200,000 / 194.4995527 = $1,028.28

in total, you will pay $1,028.28  x 360 = $370,180.80, so total interests = $370,180.80 - $200,000 = $170,180.80

the biweekly payment = principal / annuity factor

  • principal = $250,000 x 80% = $200,000
  • PV annuity factor, 780 periods, 0.178%= 421.62071

monthly payment = $200,000 / 421.62071 = $474.36

in total, you will pay $474.36  x 780 = $370,000.80, so total interests = $370,000.80 - $200,000 = $170,000.80

During the 30 year period, you will be able to save $170,180.80 - $170,000.80 = $180 in interests

Flexible Calculations = (600,000/20,000)*21,000= $ 630,000

V. Cost of goods sold= ($ 460,000 /20,000)*21,000= 483,000

Direct materials .   =  $200,000 /20,000)*21,000=   210,000

Direct labor =    160,000/20,000)*21,000=    168,000

Variable overhead  =  60,000 /20,000)*21,000=    63,000

Variable Operating Expenses =  40,000 /20,000)*21,000= 42,000

All calculations are carried out in the same way. Dividing the amount in the given budget with the number of units and multiplying it with actual number of units.

Flexible Contribution Margin 147,000 and Actual Contribution Margin 139,000 which shows a Variance  of 8000  which is unfavorable.

If you don't include something in the subject line of an email the recipient might delete your message or send it to the spam folder. The whole purpose of a subject line is to include a compelling reason for the recipient to open the email and read it.
