Answer:

Choose Project A whose payback is 2.492 years and therefore falls within the 2.5 year required payback period.

Explanation:

Project A    

Year   Cash-flow   Balance

0    (72,000)    (72,000)

1    21,400     (50,600)

2    22,900     (27,700)

3    56,300     28,600  

Payback = YearsWithNegativeCumulativeCashflowBalance + \frac{-LastNegativeBalance}{CashInflowfollowingYear}


= 2years + \frac{-(-27,700}{56300}=2.492 years

Project B      

Year  Cash-flow          Balance  

0    (81,000)    (81,000)

1    20,100     (60,900)

2    22,200     (38,700)

3    74,800     36,100  

Payback = YearsWithNegativeCumulativeCashflowBalance + \frac{-LastNegativeBalance}{CashInflowfollowingYear}


= 2years + \frac{-(-38,700}{74,800}=2.517 years

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The GDP of consumption price is increasing by $10

Explanation:

Consumption price GDP is that by $10 And the price of tomato sauce and cheese is indirect cost and that cost is the demand and we can't apply that directly. These costs may indirectly be used for calculated GDP.  

So, in the question given, consumers bought the Pizza from the $10 grocery store and tomato sauce and cheese is the intermediate cost so they can't add it directly.

Therefore, The GDP of consumption price is increasing by $10

A Food Marketing Institute found that 52% of households spend more than $125 a week on groceries. Assume the population proporti
kkurt [141]

Answer:

P(p>0.38) = P(z>-2.79)

And using the complement rule we got:

P(p>0.38) = P(z>-2.79)=1-P(Z

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

For this case wwe know that p = 0.52 and n = 99 and we can check if we can use the normal approximation for the proportion distribution.

np= 99*0.52= 51.48>10

n(1-p) =99*(1-0.52) = 47.52>10

So then we can use the normal approximation.

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

The mean is given by:

\mu_{p} = 0.52

And the standard error is given by:

\sigma_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{0.52*(1-0.52)}{99}}= 0.0502

We want to calculate this probability:

P(p >0.38)

And for this case we can calculate the z score given by:

z = \frac{p \mu_p}{\sigma_p}

And replacing we got:

z=\frac{0.38-0.52}{0.0502} = -2.79

And using this formula:

P(p>0.38) = P(z>-2.79)

And using the complement rule we got:

P(p>0.38) = P(z>-2.79)=1-P(Z

A person who purchases his/her own policy can exclude the benefits from gross income. It's also good to note tat statutory limitations exist for the following amounts:
Benefits that have been collected under the employer's plan
Premiums that have been paid by the employer
benefits that have been collected from the individuals' policy. Therefore the amount Valentino may exclude will be calculated as follows;
Daily statutory amount in 2017 (360*45)   $16200
Actual cost of care                                    $13500          $16200
Less: Amount received from Medicare                           ($8000)
Equal amount of exclusion                                              ($8200)
Thus:
Valentino must include (15000-8200)=$6800 of the long-term care benefits received in his gross income.
