Answer and explanation:

Finance is the study of <em>banking, leverage, credit, capital markets, money, </em>and <em>investments</em> along with how they are used by individuals and companies. Many of the basic concepts in Finance come from Micro and Macroeconomic theories. One of the most fundamental theories is the time-value of money which essentially states that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar in the future.

When it comes to businesses, finance plays a key role because it determines how the project will be carried out in terms of money. Investors must come up with a plan not only for the expenditures incurred due to business activities but also to make a profit so the firm will have sustainability.

You deposit $1,100 at the end of each year into an account paying 9.1 percent interest.
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

a.

The money that we will have in account is $51156.41

b.

The money that we will have in account is $318808.31

Explanation:

a.

The deposits made in the account represent an annuity pattern as the deposits made are of a constant amount, are made after equal interval of time and are for a defined time period. Thus, to calculate the value of money that we will have after 19 years, we will use the formula for the future value of annuity.

The formula for the future value of annuity is attached.

FV = 1100 * [ (1+0.091)^19 - 1 / 0.091 ]

FV = $51156.41178

b.

The same formula for the future value of annuity will be used and we will change n from 19 to 38.

FV = 1100 * [ (1+0.091)^38 - 1 / 0.091 ]

FV = $318808.3149

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

See the excel spreadsheet attached.

Anticipated profit/(loss) is ($20,000).

Explanation:

The net profit/(loss) is the difference between the total sales and total cost. The total sales is computed as the product of the sale of each book and the number of books sold. The total cost is the sum of the variable and fixed costs.

The total variable cost is the product of the variable cost per book and the total number of books sold.

Alternatively, sales less variable cost gives contribution margin. Contribution margin less fixed cost gives the net profit. As shown in the spreadsheet attached.

Accrued Product Warranty Fosters Manufacturing Co. warrants its products for one year. The estimated product warranty is 4% of s
Finger [1]

Answer:

a.

Date                     Account Title                                          Debit             Credit

Jan. 31                 Product Warranty Expense                 $15,160

                            Product Warranty Payable                                        $15,160

<u>Working:</u>

Product warranty expense = Amount of sales for January * Estimated product warranty

= 379,000 * 4%

= $15,160

b.

Date                     Account Title                                          Debit             Credit

Jan. 31                 Product Warranty Payable                     $355

                            Supplies                                                                     $250

                            Wages payable                                                          $105

The costs of the warranty will be taken from the liability account for warranties  because the warranty payable account represents that the company owes warranty repairs which the customer just came to collect.
