administrative responsibilities at full pay. For a professor earning $ 50 comma 000 per year who works for a total of 42​ years, what is the present value of the amount she will earn while on sabbatical if the interest rate is 4 % ​(EAR)? Note: Assume that the sabbatical annual salary is paid in one lump sum every 7 years.

Answer:

$ 127,773.36

Explanation:

The professor will be in sabbatical  in years 7,  14, 21, 28, 35 and 42

In each of these years, he receives full pay amounting to=50,000

The PV of the sabbatical full pay

= \frac{50,000}{1.04^7} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^14} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^21} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^28} + \frac{50,000}{1.04^35} +\frac{50,000}{1.04^42} = 84,101.22

=50,000/(1+4%)^7+ 50,000/(1+4%)^14+ 50,000/(1+4%)^21+ 50,000/(1+4%)^28+50,000

/(1+4%)^35+ 50,000/(1+4%)^42

==50,000/(1+4%)^7+ 50,000/(1+4%)^14+ 50,000/(1+4%)^21+ 50,000/(1+4%)^28+50,000

/(1+4%)^35+ 50,000/(1+4%)^42

= \frac{50,000}{1.316} + \frac{50,000}{1.732} + \frac{50,000}{2.279}  +\frac{50,000}{2.999} +\frac{50,000}{3.946} + \frac{50,000}{5.193}

=37,993.92 + 28,868.36 + 21,939.45 + 16,672.22 + 12,671.06 + 9,628.35

=  $ 127,773.36

Thus, at an interest rate of 4%, the present value of all the sabbatical earnings amount to $ 127,773.36

With an aim of a diagram, distinguish between the income effect and substitution effect of change in price of a normal good​
Nana76 [90]

Hello. You did not present a diagram to which the question refers. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The income effect is the term related to the increase or decrease in the consumer's purchasing power in relation to the fluctuation in the price of consumer products and the value of the national currency. On the other hand, the substitution effect refers to the impact between the variation of the consumers' income value and the product's prices.

Precision Systems manufactures CD burners and currently sells 18,500 units annually to producers of laptop computers. Jay Wilson
hram777 [196]

Answer:

a. What increase in the selling price is necessary to cover the 15 percent increase in direct labor cost and still maintain the current contribution margin ratio of 40 percent?

estimated production costs per unit:

direct materials $10

direct labor $23

overhead $30

total $63

if we want contribution margin to remain at 40%, then selling price = $63 / (1 - 40%) = <u>$105</u>

to verify our answer, contribution margin = $105 - $63 = $42 / $105 = 40%

b. How many units must be sold to maintain the current operating income of $350,000 if the sales price remains at $100 and the 15 percent wage increase goes into effect?

if sales price doesn't change, then contribution margin = $37 (not $40)

units sold to keep profit at $350,000 = ($350,000 + $390,000) / $37 = <u>20,000 units per year</u>

c. Wilson believes that an additional $700,000 of machinery (to be depreciated at 20 percent annually) will increase present capacity (20,000 units) by 25 percent. If all units produced can be sold at the present price of $100 per unit and the wage increase goes into effect, how would the estimated operating income before capacity is increased compare with the estimated operating income after capacity is increased? Prepare schedules of estimated operating income at full capacity before and after the expansion.

working at full capacity, sales price $100 (unchanged) and direct labor costs increasing by 15%

                                          capacity 20,000          capacity 25,000

sales revenue                     $2,000,000                  $2,500,000

direct labor                          $460,000                      $575,000

direct materials                   $200,000                      $250,000

overhead                             $600,000                      $750,000

fixed costs                      <u>     $390,000      </u>          <u>      $670,000       </u>

operating revenue              $350,000                      $255,000

The expansion will result in lower operating profits ($95,000 less) so it should be discarded.
