A company produces and sells 6,400 recliners each year. Each production run has a fixed cost of $400 and an additional cost of $
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

800 Recliners

Explanation:

Calculation for the optimal number of recliners the company should make during each production run

Using this formula

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) =√ [(2 D x S) / C]

Where,

Annual Demand (D) = 6,400 Recliners

Fixed Ordering Cost (S) = $400

Carrying cost per recliner (C) = $8

Let plug in the formula

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)= √[(2 x 6,400 x $400) / $8]

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)=√$5,120,000/$8

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)=√$640,000

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)= 800 Recliners

Therefore the optimal number of recliners the company should make during each production run will be 800 Recliners

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

implied credit spread =  1.13 %

Explanation:

given data

interest on foreign government bonds = 7.5%

current exchange rate = 28

forward exchange rate = 28.5

risk-free rate = 4.5%

solution

we get here risk free rate by the forward exchange rate that is

F = spot exchange rate × \frac{1+Rr}{1+Rs}   ....................1

put here value

28.5 = 28 ×  \frac{1+Rr}{1+0.045}  

solve it we get

Rr = 0.0637

Rr = 6.37%

so

implied credit spread = interest on foreign government bonds - risk free rate

implied credit spread = 7.5% - 6.37%

implied credit spread =  1.13 %
