What did president hoover do to devise strategies for improving the economy?

The above answer is definitely correct in its details. I'd just like to emphasize a couple of important ideas about Hoover's response.

<span>He tried to do more to fix the economy than any president had ever done before. The government had been very hands-off up to that point.He believed the government should not go in debt no matter what. This limited what he was willing to do. Please note that economists back then agreed with this idea so it's not like Hoover was just being mean. In fact, FDR believed the same thing and it's often said that he undermined the New Deal by trying to balance the budget too soon.</span>

So, overall what I want to point out is that Hoover did more than anyone else, and he did what most economists of the time would have said was the right thing to do. But it didn't work and so he's seen as one of the worst presidents ever, which seems a bit unfair.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the Minimum Restocking Level needed to cover expected demand over time without stocking out

Using this formula

Minimum Restocking Level= (Average daily demand × Reorder period)+ (Average daily demand × Lead time)

Let plug in the formula

Minimum Restocking Level= (70 days × 10 days) + (70 days × 3 days)

Minimum Restocking Level=700 days + 210 days

Minimum Restocking Level= 910 days

Therefore the Minimum Restocking Level needed to cover expected demand over time without stocking out is 910 days

Answer:

a. Quartz’s reservation price = $306,006.68

b. New Leasing Company’s reservation price = $234,034.25

Explanation:

Given:

Cost = Cost of the equipment = $970,000

n = number of years of lease term = 4

r = cost of borrowing rate = 10%, or 0.10

t = tax rate = 30%, or 0.30

DF = Discounting factor or PV of $1 = ((1-(1/(1 + r))^n)/r) = ((1-(1/(1 + 0.10))^5)/0.10) = 3.16986544634929

a. What is Quartz’s reservation price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

The implication of the zero effective tax rate is that depreciation tax shield foregone does not exist. In addition, there is no difference between the after-tax lease payment and the pre-tax payment, and there is also no difference between the pre-tax cost of debt and the after-tax cost.

Quartz’s reservation price can therefore be calculated by setting net advantage to leasing (NAL) equal to zero and solve as follows:

NAL = 0 = Cost – (PMT * DF) ………… (1)

Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:

0 = $970,000 – (PMT * 3.16986544634929)

$970,000 = PMT * 3.16986544634929

PMT = $970,000 / 3.16986544634929

PMT = $306,006.68

Quartz’s reservation price = PMT = $306,006.68

b. What is New Leasing Company’s reservation price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Depreciation tax shield = (Cost / n) * t = ($970,000 / 4) * 30% = $72,750

New r = After-tax debt cost = r * (1 - t) = 0.10 * (1 - 0.30) = 0.07

New DF = ((1-(1/(1 + New r))^n)/New r) = ((1-(1/(1 + 0.07))^5)/0.07) = 4.10019743594759

The New Leasing Company’s reservation price can therefore be calculated by setting NPV to zero as follows:

NPV = 0 = -Cost + (PMT * (1 – t) * New DF) + (Depreciation tax shield * New DF)

0 = -$970,000 + (PMT * (1-0.30) * 04.10019743594759) + ($72,750 * 4.10019743594759)

$970,000 - ($72,750 * 4.10019743594759) = PMT * (1-0.30) * 04.10019743594759

$671,710.636534813 = PMT * 2.87013820516331

PMT = $671,710.636534813 / 2.87013820516331

PMT = $234,034.25

New Leasing Company’s reservation price = PMT = $234,034.25
