Answer: $3,564.50
Explanation:
The total amount that the company will pay for the merchandise is the net cost of the merchandise, less a 3% cash discount, plus the transportation costs. The cash discount normally only applies to the merchandise and not the transportation costs.
The cost of the merchandise is $3,600 less the $250 refund, which equals $3,350. With a 3% cash discount they will pay 97% of this amount, which is $3,249.50. After adding the additional transportation charge of $315, the total amount to be paid is $3,564.50.
Answer:
$90; $900
Explanation:
Given that,
Amount of deposits = $100
Required reserve ratio = 10%
Required reserves:
= Amount of deposits × Required reserve ratio
= $100 × 10%
= $10
Excess reserves = Deposits - Required reserves
= $100 - $10
= $90
Money multiplier:
= 1/ Required reserve ratio
= 1/ 0.1
= 10
Money Supply:
= Amount of excess reserves used for lending × Money multiplier
= $90 × 10
= $900
The money supply could eventually grow by as much as $900.
Answer: The answers to the questions are provided below.
Explanation:
1. The Required Rate of Return(RRR) is the absolute minimum return on an investment that an individual or firm would accept for the investment to be considered worthwhile. The required rate of return helps in deciding whether an investment is worth the cost or not.
An expected rate of return helps in knowing out how much one can expect to make from an investment. An expected rate of return is the return on investment that an individual or firm expects to make when investing in a stock.
The RRR is the least possible rate which would entice someone to invest while the expected rate of return is what the person plan to make from that investment and its calculation is based on probability.
When there is difference between the required rate of return and expected rate of return for an asset at a specific period of time, it means that the economic conditions aren't normal as there is either inflation or deflation in the market.
2. The holding period return is the total return gotten from holding an asset over a particular period of time which is known as the “holding” period while the expected return is the return based on probability-weighted average of likely returns from an investment.
3. Diversification is a technique that is applied to reduce risk through the allocation of investments among several financial instrument and industries. Diversification aims to maximize the returns through investment in different sectors because each sector will likely react differently when there's a risk. Investing in more than one asset through diversification is essential because each asset will react differently when a risk occurs.
Answer:
$ 102,100
Explanation:
Based on the scenario been described in the question the incremental Analysis for replacement of old equipment:
Cost of New used lift
$ 190,500
Saving in Incremental Cost of Repair of old lift
$ (45,000)
Reduction in Annual operating expenses = $25,600 * 6 years
$ (153,600)
Annual Rent revenue from new used lift = $11,000*6 years
$ (66,000)
Sale price of old lift
$ (28,000)
Saving in Incremental Costs
$ (102,100)
Net income increase
$ 102,100
Hence, the net income shall increase by $102,100 if the old liftis replaced.
Given Information:
Current Population = P₀ = 7 billion = 7x10⁹
Growth rate = r = 3 %
Period = t = 100 years
Required Information:
(a) Population after 100 years = ?
(b) Population after t = 0, 1, 2, 10, 25, 50 years = ?
(c) Population vs time graph = ?
Explanation:
The human population growth can be modeled as an exponential growth,

where P₀ is the current population, r is the growth rate and t is the time period
(a) What would the population equal 100 years from now?

P = 140.6x10⁹
(b) Compute the level of the population for t = 0, t = 1, t = 2, t = 10, 25, and t =50
<u>t = 0</u>
P = 7x10⁹e⁰
P = 7x10⁹
<u>t = 1</u>
P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*1
P = 7.213x10⁹
<u>t = 2</u>
P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*2
P = 7.423x10⁹
<u>t = 10</u>
P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*10
P = 9.45x10⁹
<u>t = 25</u>
P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*25
P = 14.82x10⁹
<u>t = 50</u>
P = 7x10⁹e^0.03*50
P = 31.37x10⁹
(c) Make a population versus time graph
