Answer:

Variable cost per copy =$ 0.03  

Explanation:

The high and low techniques helps to analyse a cost into its variable and fixed cost component.

The  formula is given below:\

Variable cost per copy = (cost at high act. - cost at low act)/(high act - low act)

Fixed cost = cost at high activity - (Vc/copy × high act)

VC per copy = ( 195 - 162)/(3500-2400) copies

                  =$ 0.03  per copy

Total fixed cost = 195 - (0.03× 3500)

                          = 195 - 105

                          =$90

The cost of buying 6 bananas = 6×$1 = $6

the same $6 can only buy 3 apples

Therefore the price of apples is $2

Blue Angel Investors has a success ratio of 10 % with its venture funding. Blue Angel requires a rate of return of 19.1 % for it
Talja [164]

Answer:

19.10%

Explanation:

The computation of annual percentage rate is shown below:-

Your loan rate states if one out of ten succeeds, after five years, so the nine failure will cover, and if the Blue Angel makes 10 loans of $168,000 each and needs a return of 19.1% on its portfolio of lending, then given amount will have to be accrued after five years.

= Value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years

= $168,000 × (1 + 0.191)^5

= $168,000 × 2.396397222

= $402,594.73

Now the annual percentage rate is

= (Future value  ÷ value)^1 ÷ number of years - 1

= ($402,594.73 ÷ $168,000)^1÷5 - 1

= 19.09999981

or

= 19.10%
