Answer:

$206,608.28

Explanation:

in order to determine how much is Kathleen's bonus worth in equivalent dollars 10 years ago, we need to use the present value formula:

  • present value = ?
  • future value = $300,000
  • n = 10
  • r = 3.8%

present value = future value / (1 + r)ⁿ = $300,000 / (1 + 0.038)¹⁰ = $300,000 / 1.452 = $206,608.28

If her dad's bonus was equivalent to hers, then it should have been around $206,608.28.

Answer:

=$206,608.28

Explanation:

<em>Inflation erodes the value of money,  so to determine the real value of any given amount (nominal) we need to adjust it for infalton.</em>

In the same vein, to calculate her dad's bonus 10 years ago,  we will have to determine the real value of $300, 000 using the annual  inflation rate.

This is determined as follows:

Real bonus = 300,000/1.038

                   =  $206,608.28

The value of her dad's bonus 10 years ago

                  =$206,608.28

cluponka [151]

Answer:

c. 10%

Explanation:

The Yield to Maturity(YTM) of the Bond is the cost of the debt. So, we need to find the YTM first.

Here i will use a Financial Calculator to enter and compute the YTM as follows :

N = 20× 2 = 40

PMT = ($1,000 × 8%) ÷ 2 = $40

PV = $828

P/YR = 2

FV = 1,000

I or YTM = ?

Thus the cost of the Bond is 10%

Lena [83]

Answer:

$6 per unit

Explanation:

using the weighted average method:

units completed 92,000 x 100% (both materials and conversion)

ending work in progress 24,000

  • materials 90% completed = 21,600
  • conversion 40% completed = 9,600

equivalent unit conversion costs = total conversion costs / total equivalent units of conversion

  • total conversion costs = $20,320 + $15,240 + $$182,880 + $391,160 = $609,600
  • total equivalent units of conversion = 92,000 + 9,600 = 101,600

equivalent unit conversion costs = $609,600 / 101,600 units = $6 per unit

Burka [1]

Answer:

Piper Rose Boutique should accept the special order made by the college

Explanation:

Price per unit the college is willing to pay = $6

Total variable cost per unit to be incurred by Piper Rose Boutique = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable factory overhead = $2.00 + $0.50 + $1.50 = $4,00

Since the price per unit of $6 that the college is willing to pay is greater than the total variable cost per unit of $4 to be incurred by Piper Rose Boutique, Piper Rose Boutique should accept the special order made by the college.

Note: the Fixed factory overhead is not relevant in taking the decision. Only the variable costs are relevant.
