Answer:
The selling price should be $66K.
Explanation:
Capital Budgeting defines the future value as present value times the interest rate over the years FV=(1+i)^n, the following table shows both future values for Neighbor’s house and mine to calculate the differences.
Future value (FV) = Present value (PV) + (1 + Interest rate)n, where n is raised to the power of the number of years.
FV = PV +p (1+r) -30
PV = 60000
= $60000 (1+0.075) - 30
= $60000 (0.11422)
= $6859.26 + $60000
= $66853.26
.
Given this estimate, my selling price will now be $66K, making a profit of $5K, this way the future seller can either choose to buy my home or any other in the neighborhood since the future value will be the same even though the interest rate is 0.5% higher.
Answer:
$183,200
Explanation:
Given that,
Direct labor = $86,000
Total current manufacturing costs = $381,000
Manufacturing overhead is applied to production:
= 130% of direct labor cost
= 1.30 × $86,000
= $111,800
Total manufacturing costs = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead.
$381,000 = Direct material + $86,000 + $111,800
Direct material = $381,000 - $86,000 - $111,800
= $183,200
Therefore, the amount of direct materials used in production is $183,200.
Answer:
Surnum's exchange rate is pegged.
Explanation:
Exchange rate is the rate at which a countrie's currency is exchanged for another. Usually when there is more demand for a countrie's currency it will have more value than other currencies and vice versa.
There are two ways a countrie's currency rate can be controlled in relation to others.
First is by market forces of demand and supply.
Secondly is by pegging the countrie's currency against another and using reserves of the other currency to account for market fluctuations.
In this instance Surnum has pegged it's currency against the dollar, so it will use its dollar reserves to account for fluctuations in order to maintain the pegged exchange rate.
