Answer:

EOQ 30,984 (no discounts)

with discounts: 40,000

Explanation:

To know the best order quantity we use the Economic Order Quantity:

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}

<u>Where:</u>

D = annual demand = 20,000 per month x 12 months = 240,000 anual demand

S= setup cost = ordering cost $400

H= Holding Cost = $1 x 20% = 0.20

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 240,000 \times 400}{0.2}}

EOQ = 30,983.86677

EOQ = 30,984

Now, considering there is a discount, we must check the EOQ against the next discount bracket.

below EOQ the order has less discount or equal discount, so the EOC should provide better cost.

<u>At EOQ:</u>

240,000 x 0.98 = 235,200

240,000/30,984 = 7.75 order per year x $400 = 3,100

30,984/2 = 15,492 average inventory x 0.2 holding cost = 3,098.4

Total Cost: 241.398,4‬

<u>At 40,000 the cost is 0.96 per plywood:</u>

240,000 x 0.96 = 230,400

240,000/40,000 = 12 order x $ 400 = $  4,800

40,000/2 = 20,000 average inventory x 0.2 holding cost: $  4,000

Total Cost: 239,200

<u />

after taking the discount into account the best deal is to take orders for 40,000 units

Increasing this will increase the holding cost, thus increasing the inventory cost.

Laurel, Inc., and Hardy Corp. both have 6 percent coupon bonds outstanding, with semiannual interest payments, and both are curr
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

A. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of these bonds?

Laurel, Inc. = -8.11%

Hardy Corp. = -18.91%

B. If interest rates were to suddenly fall by 2 percent instead, what would the percentage change in the price of these bonds be then?

Laurel, Inc. = +8.98%

Hardy Corp. = +25.49%

Explanation:

bonds with 6% semiannual coupons, sold at par $1,000

Laurel, Inc. bond maturity in 5 years

Hardy Corp. bond maturity in 18 years

the current price of a bond is the sum of the present value of its face value and coupons. I will use an annuity table to calculate PV of face value and an ordinary annuity table for the coupons:

Laurel, Inc.

market rate 4% = ($1,000 x 0.8203) + ($30 x 8.9826) = $820.30 + $269.48 = $1,089.78, % change = 89.78/1,000 = 8.98%

market rate 8% = ($1,000 x 0.6756) + ($30 x 8.1109) = $675.60 + $243.33 = $918.93, % change = -81.07/1,000 = -8.11%

Hardy Corp.

market rate 4% = ($1,000 x 0.4902) + ($30 x 25.489) = $490.20 + $764.67 = $1,254.87, % change = 254.87/1,000 = 25.49%  

market rate 8% = ($1,000 x 0.2437) + ($30 x 18.908) = $243.70 + $567.24 = $810.94, % change = -189.06/1,000 = -18.91%

A good is excludable if: a) Those who are unwilling or unable to pay for the good do not obtain its benefits. b) It is not possi
N76 [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Those who are unwilling or unable to pay for the good do not obtain its benefits.

Explanation:

The excludability feature of goods does not allow individuals to have access to them without having paid for them. Thus, non-excludable goods are those that no one cannot prevent its use. <em>Private goods</em> (clothing, vehicles, houses) are excludable but they are also considered rival goods since when one person uses it another individual cannot consume the goods.
