Answer:

Operate mine 1 four 4 days and mine 2 during 6 days to obtain minimum cost for the desired output of 850 gold and 18,000 silver

Explanation:

We generate the equation system on excel:

(50g + 3000s) Q_1 --> output generated on Mine 1

(75g + 1,000s) Q_2 --> output generated on Mine 2

12,000 Q1 + 17,000 Q2 = cost of the mines

we do solver to minimize the days of each mine considering a desired output of 18,000 silver and 650 gold:

and get the following:

M1  4 days  output: (50g + 3000s) 4 = 200 g    12,000s

M2 6 days  output: (75g + 1,000s) 6 =  450g      6,000s

Cost: 12,000 x 4 + 17,000 x 6 = 150,000

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

-$130,000

Explanation:

The computation of the net loss deducted from his return is shown below:

= Income - interest deductions - operating expenses - depreciation expenses

= $20,000 - $80,000 - $45,000 - $25,000

= $20,000 - $150,000

= -$130,000

Since the value comes in negative which reflects the net loss for the year

We simply deduct the revenues from the expenses so that the net income or net loss could come

Airborne Airlines Inc. has a $1,000 par value bond outstanding with 20 years to maturity. The bond carries an annual interest pa
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

7.52%

Explanation:

First and foremost ,the yield to maturity on the old issue is computed using the rate formula in excel as calculated below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

the nper is the number of times the bond would pay annual coupon interest of $106,which is 20 times

pmt is the amount of annual coupon payment which is $106

pv is the current price of the bond at $860

fv is the face value of the bond at $1000

=rate(20,106,-860,1000)=12.54%

The yield to maturity on the new issue is 12.54%  as well

after-tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)

pretax cost of debt is yield to maturity of 12.54%

t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

after-tax cost of debt=12.54% *(1-0.4)=7.52%
