Answer:

37 years

Explanation:

We know,

Future value = Present value (1 + r)^n

Given,

Future value, FV = $230,000;

Present value, PV = $32,000;

Interest rate, r = 5.5% = 0.055;

We have to determine how many years later I can purchase the Ferrari.

Now, putting the values into the formula, we get,

FV = PV × (1 + r)^n

or, $230,000 = $32,000 × (1 + 0.055)^n

or, $230,000 ÷ $32,000 = (1 + 0.055)^n

or, 7.1875 = (1 + 0.055)^n

or, log 7.1875 = n × log 1.055

or, n × log 1.055 = log 7.1875 [Changing the side]

or, n = log 7.1875 ÷ log 1.055

Using financial calculator/Scientific Calculator,

or, n = 0.8566 ÷ 0.0233

Therefore, n = 36.76 or almost 37 years.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

1. fixed and indirect

2. variable and direct

3. variable and direct

4. fixed and indirect

5. fixed and indirect

6. variable and direct

Explanation:

<u>Fixed and variable costs</u>

A fixed cost is expected to be constant for a short term period whilst a variable cost is expected to vary in direct proportion to the number of units produced in this case it is the individual classes.

Depreciation expense on classroom building and on computers is a fixed cost that is expected to remain constant and the instructor wage varies with the number of classes thus a variable cost.

<u>Direct and Indirect costs</u>

A direct cost can be directly traced to the cost object by observation whist the indirect cost can not be directly traced on a cost object.

The instructors wage is a direct cost, his effort is seen with the success of the classes whist the depreciation expenses are indirect costs.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

Profit as per FIFO is higher than profit as per LIFO

Explanation:

In the given case, as per both the methods computation shall be as follows:

Date                    Quantity                   Rate              Amount

Mar 1                     22 units                   $29                 $638

Jun 16                   31 units                    $30                 $930

Nov 28                 41 units                     $37                 $1,517

Total                     94 units                                           $3,085

Closing units = 18

That means sales = 94 - 18 = 76 units

Thus as per LIFO cost = 41 units @ $37 + 31 units @ $30 + 4 units @ $29

= $2,563

Closing stock = 18 units @ $29 = $522

As per FIFO cost = 22 units @ $29 + 31 units @ $30 + 23 units @ $37 = $2,419

Closing stock = 18 units @ $37 = $666

Thus, difference of closing stock = $666 - $522 = $144

Profit as per FIFO is higher by $144

Cost is higher in LIFO by $2,563 - $2,419 = $144

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

When the consumer price index falls, the typical family has to spend fewer dollars to maintain the same standard of living. True
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Consumer price index measures the changes in price level of a basket of goods.

If consumer price index falls if means price level has fallen , goods become cheaper and the same amount of money can buy more quantities of goods and services.

Conversely if consumer price index rises, price level has increased, goods and services become more expensive and more amount of money would be needed to maintain the same level of consumption.

CPI is calculated as cost of basket of goods in a given year / cost of basket of goods in a base year
