Answer:

a) 10,000 free trade credit

b) Costly trade    6.466,67

c)    yearly cost  38,800

d) Yes as the total cash outflow to purchase the goods is lower using costly trade

e) The complete amount as it reduces the cashflow needed for the acquisition of the goods

Explanation:

principal x rate x time = interest

Where rate and time should be expressed in the same metric thus, we express the 60 days as portion of a year

500,000 x 0.12 x 60/360 = 10,000 free trade credit

<em><u>costly trade:</u></em>

500,000 x 0.97 = 485,000

485,000 x 0.12 x 40/360 = 6.466,67

cost per year: the cicle repeats every 60 days thus, 6 times per year:

6,466.67 x 6 = 38.800‬

total financial outflow:

with free credit: 500,000

with costly trade: 485,000 + 6,466.67 = 491.466,67‬

As the costly trade generated a lower cash flow it should take this path

Answer:

Break-even point= 7,900 new costumers

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Assume that during a recent fiscal year, one outlet spent $1,659,000 on a promotional campaign for its website that offered two free months of service for new subscribers.

In addition, assume the following information: Number of months an average new customer stays with the service (including the two free months) 22 months Revenue per month per customer subscription $16 Variable cost per month per customer subscription $5.

Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin

Fixed costs= 1,659,000

Contribution margin= (16*20)-(5*22)= 210

Break-even point= 1,659,000/210= 7,900 new costumers

Retain the small predictable layers of risk and transfer the unpredictable catastrophic layer of risk. Does this statement promo
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Yes the statement does

Explanation:

Retaining small predictable layers of risk and transferring the unpredictable catastrophic layer of risk to a more capable body is a very good approach towards  promoting appropriate risk financing decision making, this is because

Financial risk decisions are decisions taken between alternatives i.e risks associated with business activities . it is more appropriate to take alternatives with a predictable layer of risk,that way it would be easier for the management to handle the risk associated with it, while transferring the unpredictable catastrophic layer of risk to a more capable body ,like the Insurance companies .

Mango Company applies overhead based on direct labor costs. For the current year, Mango Company estimated total overhead costs t
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Balance for the Factory Overhead account: 19,000 credit

Explanation:

We will first, calculate the overhead rate based on the predetermination overhead rate:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

The total manufacturing cost will be distributed over the cost driver. In this case, labor cost:

360,000/180,000 = 2 overhead rate

Then, we calculate the applied overhead 203,000 x 2 = 406,000

Now, the balance for factory overhead account:

Actual overhead: 387,000 debit

        payable, accumulated depreicaiton and other 387,000 credit

WIP 406,000 debit

Applied Overhead 406,000 credit

Balance:

406,000 - 387,000 = 19,000 credit

You want to buy a new sports coupe for $84,500, and the finance office at the dealership has quoted you an apr of 6.6 percent fo
Margaret [11]

Answer: The monthly payment will be $2007.81.

We have:

Cost of the sports coupe (PV)                     $84,500

Annual Percentage Rate (APR)                         6.6%

Loan tenure in months (n)                                    48

We can find the monthly payment by using the Present value of an annuity formula:

\mathbf{PV_{Annuity}= PMT * \left ( \frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} \right )}

Since APR is a yearly number, we need to convert it into a monthly rate.

So , r = \frac{0.066}{12} = 0.0055

Plugging values in the PV formula above we get,

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{1-(1+0.0055)^{-48}}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{1-0.768529253}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * \left ( \frac{0.231470747}{0.0055} \right )}

\mathbf{84500 = PMT * 42.08559028}

\mathbf{\frac{84500}{42.08559028}= PMT}

\mathbf{PMT = 2007.813112}
