We have a series of five payments (n=5), paid at the end of the year, starting with $6,000 and increasing at a rate of 5% per year.
The inflation rate is 4% and the market interest rate is 11%.
The equivalent present worth of the series, where we take into account yearly increments and discount the value by inflation and interest rate, is:

Where:
h: increment in the payments (5%)
i: rate of inflation (4%)

Explanation:
Sales price of a spring break vacation package = $194.99
Amount saved for booking early = $30
The original sale price(price before the saved amount) = 224.99
Percentage decrease in price is:
Saved amount ÷ original sale price 30/224.99
=0.1333
Expressed as a percentage:
13.33%
The percent decrease in price is therefore 13.33%

Answer:
The elimination of the North division would result in an increase to net operating income of $100,000 for the South division.
Explanation:
Please see computation of the company's overall net profit
= South sales - South variable costs - South traceable fixed costs - South allocated common corporate cost - North allocated common corporate cost
= $880,000 - $550,000 - $80,000 - $50,000 - $100,000
= $100,000 profit.
N.B
Since the North division has been eliminated, all the items for North division would all be ignored except its allocated common corporate cost.
