Answer:

a.The efficiency of the WiFi system will depend upon the usage and the speed of internet provided by the ISP (Internet Service Provider). Keeping in mind that the town have 1,000 households the network to choose will need to be fast and reliable also each household should be allowed to download a certain amount of DATA via internet so that the each household can get benefit from the WiFi System.

b. If each household is willing to pay $50 per year the contribution received will be $50×1,000 = $50,000. So the cost of WiFi system will be recovered.

c. If the town keeps tracks of the contributions and ask the household to contribute at least $20 per year so yes the total cost of WiFi system will be recovered. $20× 1,000= $20,000

Workman Software has 8.8 percent coupon bonds on the market with 19 years to maturity. The bonds make semiannual payments and cu
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

current yield 8.2089552%

YTM = 8.05%

effective annual yield = 4.92%

Explanation:

(A)

current yield = C/P

coupon payment / market price

8.8/107.2 = 0.082089552 = 8.2089552%

(B)

P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2t} }{YTM/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTM/2)^{2t}}

First par being the present value of the coupon payment and second the redeem of the face value at the end of the bond.

market price 107.2

face value 100

time = 19

rate 8.8%

C = annual coupon payment 100 x 8.8% = 8.8

You solve this using a financial calculation and get the semiannual rate

YTM/2 = 0.040268160

then multiply by 2 to get the annual YTM

0.040268160  x 2 =

YTM = 0.08053632 = 8.05%

(C)

Effective Annual Yield

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

where:

Holding period return:

\frac{Net \: Return}{Investment} = HPR

In this case:

coupon payment + redem - investment = net return

8.8 * 19 + 100 - 107.2 = 160

160/107.2 = 1.492537313

Then

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

(1+1.142537313)^{\frac{365}{19\times365}} -1 = EAY

EAY = 0.049242509 = 4.9242509%

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Optimal batch size to produce= 5.56 slices

Explanation:

Selling rate of sandwich = 50 / hour

No of slices used per hour = 50* 2 =100 ( each sandwich use 2 slices)

No of loafs which gets baked in an hour = 7

No of sandwich slices which get produuced in an hour = 7*20 =140

No of sandwich which can be produce = 10/2 =70

So every hour no of slices to be hold = 40

No fo loaf to be hold = 40/20 =2

Cost of holding = 0.8* 1 =0.8

Cost of running a new batch = $3*2 = $6

Selling each sandwich = $12.95

Saving = $12.95 - $6 =$6.95

Optimal batch size = saving * ( Holding cost) = 6.95 *0.8 = 5.56 slices

adoni [48]

Answer:

The answer is: Inventory cost is $4,900

Explanation:

ACB Manufacturing purchased $6,000 worth of merchandise with credit terms 2/10 or n/30. This means that if the company pays its debt within 10, it will receive a 2% discount.

It returned $1,000 worth of defective merchandise, decreasing its total debt to $5,000. Since ACB Manufacturing paid its debt within the first ten days, it got a 2% discount. It paid a total of $4,900 for the merchandise, so that should be its inventory cost.

       Answer:

All Of The Above

       Explanation:

A cost benefit analysis (CBA) estimates and/or totals up the amount of money a certain place or organization takes up. Based on that sum of money, the CBA decides if the place or organization is useful or needs to be there, or if they are just wasting money. The CBA determines whether to keep the place / organization using opinions and it is subjective, subjective meaning based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions.

The CBA weighs benefits against cost. This means that they take the sum of money that "thing" uses and weighs that against how useful it is, what benefits it has, and how much people use and need it.  These projects may be dams and highways or can be training programs and health care systems. If they take up to much money and are not used, they are taken out.
