Answer:  The answer is $27.25

Explanation:

Let x be the price Sweet dreams will charge to earn the profit of $75,000

New sales units = 20,000

New variable cost = $19

We know, Sales - Variable cost - Fixed cost = Profit

Now applying the equation,

 20,000x - (20,000*19) - 90,000 = $75000

 20,000x = $75,000 + 380,000 + 90,000

therefore, x = $27.25

So, Sweet Dreams will charge $27.25 to earn the same profit it is earning now i.e. $75000 per year.

How did speculative investing weaken the stability of the stock market?
tiny-mole [99]
<span>Heavy speculation is a bad idea in any market since it has a tendency to inflate prices to unrealistic levels. That is basically what many investors prior to the Great Depression did when they thought the market would keep going higher and higher. They borrowed money, sold their houses, etc.. to buy into the stock market thanks to that kind of speculation without even considering the underlying reasons for why the market is there in the first place.</span>

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

We will get $7680(thousands)

Explanation:

Answer

If we read the given data values in the passage, it is clear that the mean annual number of smart little cars in china is 7500 and the variance is equal to 6400

The variance is given for the number of cars, but not for the profit.

So, we need to convert the numerical value(number of cars) to money value(profit)

it is given that net revenue per car is $1.2 (thousands)

So, multiplying the net revenue by number of cars

we get, variance in profit = 6400*1.2 = $7680 (thousands)

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Green's distribution of $50,000 in to its sole shareholder at the end of the year should be treated as a dividend because Green's total earnings and profits for the year were $100,000.

A distribution from a corporation to a shareholder  can only be treated as a dividend when the corporation made a profit during the current year, or has positive accumulated earnings and profits.

Which of the following are characteristics of a perpetuity?
QveST [7]

Answer:

B. The value of a perpetuity is equal to the sum of the present value of its expected future cash flows.

C. The current value of a perpetuity is based more on the discounted value of its nearer (in time) cash flows and less by the discounted value of its more distant (in the future) cash flows.

Explanation:

A Perpetuity is a financial instrument that pays the holder forever or in perpetuity. For example, a bank paying you $800 per year for ever because you invested $40,000.

There are certain characteristics

Option B

The Perpetuity like most financial Securities has its value based on the underlying cashflows that it can accumulate. This means that it's value is based on the present value of it's future cashflow so the other the cash payments, the higher the present value.

Option C.

As the discounted cashflows in the nearer future will be discounted less by the discount rate as opposed to the cash flows further in future, the cashflows nearer to the present in time will contribute more to the Perpetuity than the cashflows further in time.

For example using that first example, $800 per year at a rate of 5% will be discounted to $762 in the first year but in year 10 will be discounted to $491.
