Answer:
7 packets of sweet-pepper seeds and 9 packet of hot-pepper seeds.
Explanation:
Let x packets of sweet-pepper seeds for $2.16 each and y packets of hot-pepper seeds for $4.24 each are mixed to obtain 16-packet mixed pepper assortment for $3.33 per packet,
i.e. x + y = 16 ..........(1)
Also,
The price of sweet-pepper seeds + price of hot pepper seeds = price of the mixture
⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y = 3.33(x+y)
⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y = 3.33x+3.33y
⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y - 3.33x-3.33y = 0
⇒ −1.17x +0.91y = 0 ........(2)
Equation (2) + 1.17 × equation (1)
0.91y + 1.17y = 18.72
2.08y = 18.72
⇒ y = 9
From equation (1),
x + 9 = 16 ⇒ x = 16 - 9 ⇒ x = 7
Hence, there are 7 packets of sweet-pepper seeds and 9 packet of hot-pepper seeds.
Answer:
The holding period return is 8%
Explanation:
In this question we need to find the holding period return for the stock, and for that we would need to know what is the stocks current price, what would the stocks price be in one year and how much dividend it will pay during the year. Their last dividend paid was $4 and their dividend is expected to grow at 5% in the future so the dividend paid in the current year would be 4*1.05= 4.2.
To find the current price of the stock we will use the DDM formula
DDM= D*(1+G)/R-G
(4*1.05)/(0.08-0.05)
Price = 140
Now we need to know what the stocks price would be in one year. For that we need to know the previous dividend which is 4.20, the growth rate which is 5% and the required rate of return which is 8%
DDM= (D*(1+G)/R-G
4.2*1.05/0.08-0.05
Price = 147
So now we know the current price, current year dividend and year end price we can calculate the holding period return.
Holding period return = (Dividend +(End of period price-Initial Price))/Initial Price
Dividend = 4.20
End Period Price = 147
Initial Price = 140
Holding period return = 4.20+(147-140)/140
=11.20/140
=0.08
=8%

Answer:
average hours = 200
average hours = 166.67
Explanation:
given data
vans produced = 7,200
labor productivity = 0.10 vans per labor hour
Laborers = 360
to find out
How many hours average laborer work that month and If productivity can be increased to 0.12 then How many hours average laborer work
solution
average laborer work that month is express as
Laborers × average hours × labor productivity = vans produced
put here value
360 × average hours × 0.1 = 7200
so
average hours = 200
and
Laborers × average hours × labor productivity = vans produced
put here increase productivity
360 × average hours × 0.12 = 7200
so average hours = 166.67
Answer:
The contract is voidable.
Explanation:
The survey discovered a misrepresentation in the consideration (the size of the land), so that means that Maurice can choose to void it or not. A voidable contract is a contract that can be voided. In this case, the injured party is only Maurice, so only he can void it, or choose not to. They might negotiate a discount or something, it is up to him.
