Answer:

1. Total implicit cost per year = $66,000

2. Total cost per year = $337,000

Explanation:

Given:

Salary = $60,000

Investment = $100,000

Rent = $75,000

Wages = $190,000

Materials and utilities = $6,000

Rate of return = 6%

Computation:

1. Total implicit cost per year:

Total implicit cost per year = Salary give up + Return on investment

Total implicit cost per year = $60,000 + ($100,000 x 6%)

Total implicit cost per year = $60,000 + $6,000

Total implicit cost per year = $66,000

2. Total cost per year:

Total cost per year = Total implicit cost per year + Rent + Wages + Materials and utilities

Total cost per year = $66,000 + $75,000 + $190,000 + $6,000

Total cost per year = $337,000

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Nominal interest rate =  12.23%

Explanation:

Given - Aerotron Electronics has just bought a used delivery truck for

            $15,000. The small business paid $1,000 down and financed the  

             rest, with the agreement to pay nothing for the entire first year and  

             then to pay $526.83 at the end of each month over years 2, 3, and

             4 (first payment is in 13th month).

To find - a. What nominal interest rate is Aerotron paying on the loan.

Proof -

As given ,

Price - $15,000

Down Payment - $1,000

⇒Loan Payment = $15,000 - $1,000

As given,

He will not pay for the entire first year. After that he will pay $526.83 for next 3 years.

Now,

Interest rate for 1 month = r %

So,

Loan after 1 year = 14,000( 1 + r)¹²

And

Annuity factor = \frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{r}. \frac{1}{(1+r)^{t} }

and t = 3 years = 36 months

Now,

As we know,

Monthly loan payment = \frac{Loan amount}{Annuity factor}

⇒$526.83 = 14,000( 1 + r)¹² / \frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{r}. \frac{1}{(1+r)^{t} }

By solving we get

r = 1.019%

Now,

Nominal interest rate = 1.019%×12 = 12.23%

3. What is the value of the bullwhip measure for a company with a standard deviation of demand equal to 20, and a variance of or
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1.125

Explanation:

The computation of the value of the bullwhip measure is shown below

As we know that

The Variance of demand = Square of the standard deviation of demand

i.e.

= square of 20

= 400

And, the Variance of orders = 450

Now the

Bullwhip measure is

= The variance of orders ÷ the variance of demand

= 450 ÷ 400

= 1.125

Suppose that Spain and Sweden both produce fish and wine. Spain's opportunity cost of producing a bottle of wine is 4 pounds of
Darya [45]

Answer:

A) 9 Pounds of Fish Per Bottle of Wine

Explanation:

A few things should be explained

1. Opportunity Cost - this is the benefit or value of the next best choice that has to be sacrificed when a choice is made between several alternatives.

2. Comparative Advantage: This describes the advantage when a business, individual or even a nation is able to maunfacture a good or offer a service at an opportunity cost that is lower than other competitors in the business. It simply means the ability to produce a good or service at a cost cheaper than one's competitors.

Step 1: By comparing the opportunity cost of producing wine in the two countries, you can tell that Spain (ability to produce a bottle for 4 pounds of fish as compard to 10 pounds by Sweden) has a comparative advantage in the production of wine

Also Comparing the opportunity cost of wine as well, Sweden has the comparative advantage in the production of fish (10 pounds of fish as compared to 3 pounds that can be produced by Spain for a bottle of while).

Step 2: The Trading of wine and fish between Spain and Sweden

a) as long as Spain is able to get more than 4 pounds of fish (what it can produce) for every exported bottle of wine, then it can gain from a trade with Sweden.

b) Also , as long as Sweden is able to receive more than 1/10 bottles of wine for each pound of fish it exports to Spain, it can gain from the specialization and trade.

Step 3: Prices of trade (of wine in terms of fish) will allow both Sweden and Spain gain from Trade.

The correct answer is 9 Pounds of Fish per bottle of Wine. This is correct because Spain can get more than the minimum 4 pounds of fish it needs and Sweden can receive more than 1/10 the bottles of wine it needs to make a gain.
