Answer: Option B

Explanation:  Centralization or centralization  is the mechanism by which an organization's operations, particularly those related to planning and policy-making, framing strategies and regulations, are consolidated within a specific geographic region unit and are handled by some for the individual employees within.

These employees are usually the top managers and executives working in the company and have authority to make decisions that can impact the company as a whole.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.

A company’s unit costs based on 100000 units are: Variable costs $75 Fixed costs 30 The normal unit sales price per unit is $165
Simora [160]

Answer:

$81,000

Explanation:

The computation of the incremental profit (loss) from accepting the order is shown below:

Contribution per unit = $165 - $75

= $90

Now

Loss on contribution for giving up regular sales  is

= $4,100 × 90

= $369,000

Now Incremental contribution for special order is

= ($135 - $75) × 7,500

= $450,000

So,  

Incremental profit is

= $450,000 - $369,000

= $81,000

For fixed-rate bonds it's important to realize that the value of the bond has a(n)-Select relationship to the level of interest
pogonyaev

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

It's necessary to remember that the value of fixed-rate bonds is inversely proportional to the level of interest rates. The value of the bond decreases as interest rates rise; moreover, the value of the bond rises as interest rates fall. A Bond with a lower coupon sells for less than its face value. When the going rate of interest is higher than the coupon rate, this condition arises. The value of the asset would increase over time. A higher coupon bond is one that sells for a higher price than its face value. When the going rate of interest is lower than the coupon rate, this condition arises. Its value will gradually decrease until it reaches its maturity value. A par value bond that sells at par, with a coupon rate equal to the current interest rate. The coupon is usually set at the going market rate on the day the bond is sold, so it sells at par at first.

Calculations:

C = Coupon Payments = $60 (Par Value x Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 10

i = market rate or required yield = 7% = 0.007

K = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 1

P = value at maturity or par value = 1000

Present value of ordinary annuity formula:

Bond Price = C/k * [\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  } }{\frac{i}{k} } ] + \frac{P}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  }

Just plug in the values and you will get:

Bond Price = 60 x 7.02 + 508.35

Bond Price = 421.41 508.35

Bond Price = $929.76

Similarly,

Data:

C = Coupon Payments = $60 (Par Value x Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 10

i = market rate or required yield = 7% = 0.007

K = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 2

P = value at maturity or par value = 1000

Present value of ordinary annuity formula:  

Bond Price = C/k * [\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  } }{\frac{i}{k} } ] + \frac{P}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  }

Just plug in the values and you will get:  

Bond Price = 30 x 14.21 + 502.57

Bond Price = 426.37 + 502.57

Bond Price = $928.94
