Answer: I found the complete question on Google:

By 2017, McDonald's had stopped selling Chicken McNuggets and other products made from chickens fed antibiotics. The change increased McDonald's costs, but an article in the Wall Street Journal noted that "...McDonald's ability to raise its prices is limited because of stiff competition."Source: David Kesmodel, Jacob Bunge, and Annie Gasparro, "McDonald's to Curb Antibiotics in Chicken," Wall Street Journal, March 4, 2015. Does this "stiff competition" mean that the demand curve for McDonald's Chicken McNuggets is horizontal? Briefly explain.

And the correct answer is: "B. ​No, the demand curve is not horizontal because Chicken McNuggets are not identical to other chicken products.".

Step 7 of 12 If you choose to purchase the car instead, you will need to pay: A down payment of $1,299.50 Monthly payments of $3
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

$14,712.38

Explanation:

To calculate the total cost to purchase this car, we need to multiply the monthly payments times 36 (= 3 years x 12 months per year), and add the down payment.

total cost = (monthly payments x 36) + down payment = ($372.58 x 36) + $1,299.50  

total cost = $13,412.88 + $1,299.50  = $14,712.38

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The answer is "She saves \$7804 on the trip".

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Given:

(P) =\$2500\\\\(n) =3 \ years\\\\(r) = 4\%\\\\ \text{compounding period in year}\ (m) =1\\

The formula for Effective annual rate = ((1+(\frac{r}{m}))^m)-1

                                                                 =((1+(\frac{4\%}{1}))^1)-1\\\\=((1+(\frac{4}{100}))^1)-1\\\\=((1+0.04)^1)-1\\\\=((1.04)^1)-1\\\\ =1.04-1\\\\ =0.04 \\\\ = 4\%\\\\

Its potential value of its rental formula is used to measure the value of the rental at the middle of the 3rd year

 The formula for the future annuity = P\times \frac{(((1+i)^n)-1)}{i}

                                                         =2500\times \frac{(((1+0.04)^3)-1)}{0.04}\\\\=2500\times \frac{(((1.04)^3)-1)}{0.04}\\\\=2500\times \frac{(1.124864-1)}{0.04}\\\\=2500\times \frac{0.124864}{0.04}\\\\=2500\times 3.1216\\\\=7804

Pompeii, Inc., has sales of $50,000, costs of $23,000, depreciation expense of $2,250, and interest expense of $2,000. If the ta
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

operating cash flow = $21307.5

Explanation:

given data

sales = $50,000

costs = $23,000

depreciation expense = $2,250

interest expense = $2,000

tax rate = 23 percent

solution

we get here operating cash flow for that

EBIT  = Sales - Costs - Depreciation   .............1

EBIT  = $50,000 - $23,000 - $2,250

EBIT   = $24750

and taxes is

taxes = tax rate × EBIT    ..........2

taxes = 0.23 × $24750

taxes = $5692.5

so here operating cash flow that is

operating cash flow = EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes   ..........3

operating cash flow = $24750 + $2,250 - $5692.5

operating cash flow = $21307.5
