Answer:

C. 31.25%.

Explanation:

PRODUCTS X Y Z Total

Sales in dollars $20,000 $40,000 $100,000 $160,000

CM ratio 45% 40% 25%

Contribution margin ratio can be calculated by weighted average method base on the sales ratio of each product.

Contribution margin as a whole = ( CM ratio of X x Ratio of X in total sales ) + ( CM ratio of Y x Ratio of Y in total sales ) + ( CM ratio of Z x Ratio of Z in total sales )

Contribution margin as a whole = ( 45% x $20,000 / $160,000 ) + ( 40% x $40,000 / $160,000 ) + ( 25% x $100,000 / $160,000 )

Contribution margin as a whole = 5.625% + 10% + 15.625% = 31.25%

Bond j has a coupon rate of 5 percent and bond k has a coupon rate of 11 percent. both bonds have 13 years to maturity, make sem

aleksley [76]

To find the change in the price of the bonds, first need to find the price of individual Bond.

Bond Price is directly related to the change in the YTM of the bond. If the YTM rises by 2%, the price of the bond will fall.

Bond J :

(WHEN YTM IS 8%)

Coupon Rate: 5%

Coupon Amount (PMT): $1,000 * 5% = $50/2 = $25 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 13*2 = 26

YTM (rate) = 8%/2 = 4%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV0) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P0 =pv(4%,26,-25,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $760.26

(WHEN YTM RISES BY 2%, NEW YTM IS 10%)

Coupon Amount (PMT): $25 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 26

YTM (rate) = 10%/2 = 5%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV1) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P1 =pv(5%,26,-25,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $640.62

CHANGE IN THE BOND PRICE OF BOND J DUE TO THE CHANGE IN THE YTM

%change = (P1 – P0)/P0

%change = ($640.62 - $760.26)/$760.26

%change = -18.68%

Therefore, with the increase in 2% YTM of BOND J, the price falls by 18.68%

Bond K :

(WHEN YTM IS 8%)

Coupon Rate: 11%

Coupon Amount (PMT): $1,000 * 11% = $110/2 = $55 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 13*2 = 26

YTM (rate) = 8%/2 = 4%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV0) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P0 =pv(4%,26,-55,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $1,239.74

(WHEN YTM RISES BY 2%, NEW YTM IS 10%)

Coupon Amount (PMT): $55 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 26

YTM (rate) = 10%/2 = 5%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV1) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P1 =pv(5%,26,-55,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $1,071.88

CHANGE IN THE BOND PRICE OF BOND K DUE TO THE CHANGE IN THE YTM

%change = (P1 – P0)/P0

%change = ($1071.88 - $1239.74)/$1239.74

%change = -13.54%

Therefore, with the increase in 2% YTM of BOND k, the price falls by 13.54%

SIMILALRY IF THE BOND PRICES FALLS BY 2%, the YTM WILL BE 6%/2 = 3% **(REFER THE IMAGE ATTACHED)

McDonald's serves McRice Burger in Malaysia, McOZ Burger in Australia, Kiwi Burger in New Zealand, McHuevo Burger in Uruguay and

devlian [24]

The question is incomplete:

McDonald's serves McRice Burger in Malaysia, McOZ Burger in Australia, Kiwi Burger in New Zealand, McHuevo Burger in Uruguay and McSamurai Burger in Thailand. These menu variations are examples of a:

a. A combination of global and local marketing mix elements

b. a selection of menu items that can be sold eventually in U.S. markets

c. A replacement of standard menu names with fancy names

d. a deviation from successful marketing practices

e. a reflection of failure of US menu items in those countries

Answer:

a. A combination of global and local marketing mix elements

Explanation:

The answer is that these menu variations are examples of a combination of global and local marketing mix elements because the company tries to position its products on a global scale but also adjusts its strategies locally to adapt the placement and distribution to the specific characteristics of each country.

The other options are not right because McDonalds is adjusting its offer in its market to be able to establish its position in that market and not to be able to sell the items in US markets or to replace standard menu names. Also, this is the result of analyzing how to better position in a new market and not a failure of US menu items in those countries.

= $2,100,000 ÷ 100,000 hours

= $21

b. Now the applied overhead which equals to

= Actual computer hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 90,000 hours × $21
