According to financial planners, the average retiree requires approximately 70% of their last year’s working salary (answer to #

1) each year to live comfortably in retirement. Assume that you want to earn a fixed amount of interest each year in retirement. Your goal is to spend only the interest and still live comfortably. And, you want to earn the interest forever so that what remains can be passed onto your children, donated your favorite charity, or donated in honor of your favorite finance professor. That is, you want to earn a fixed amount, each year, for an indefinite amount of time. If you retire at 60 and can earn a 5% return, how much must you have saved to earn the required amount of interest?

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a. $2,600,000

b. $2,500,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The additional revenue raised by State A is

= Revenue after applying the tax rate - initial revenue after applying the tax rate

where,

Initial revenue after applying the tax rate = $800 million × 5% = $40 million

And, the Revenue increased after applying the tax rate is

=  $710 million × 6%

= $42.6 million

So, the additional revenue is

= $42.6 million - $40 million

= $2,600,000

b. The additional revenue raised by State Z is

= Sales tax rate × service volume

= 5% × $50 million

= $2,500,000

Company C&A sells 600 bottles of a dietary supplement per week at $100 per bottle. The supplement is ordered from a supplier
Katen [24]

Answer:

A. 300

Explanation:

The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

where,

Annual demand = 600 bottles × 50 weeks = 30,000 bottles

Carrying cost per bottle = $50 × 40% = $20

And, the ordering cost per order is $30

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{30,000}\times \text{\$30}}{\text{\$20}}}

= 300 bottles

Hence, option A is correct
