Answer:

b_{1} = r \frac{Sy}{Sx} = -0.84

b_{0} = y - b_{1} x

The mortgage will be 220.88

The interest amount will be 7.768

Explanation:

Regression model is used to identify the relation between two variables. In the given question the regression model fits best to identify the mortgage amount from interest rates. The interest rate and mortgage both are quantitative values so the regression model is most suitable for this.

The Soma Inn is trying to determine its break-even point. The inn has 75 rooms that are rented at $60 a night. Operating costs a
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The Soma Inn

a. Determination of the inn's break-even point:

1. number of rented rooms per month:

= Fixed Costs/Contribution per room

= $14,400/$18

= 800 rooms

2. dollars:

= Fixed Costs/Contribution margin ratio per room

= $14,400/0.3

= $48,000

2. Renting average of 50 rooms per day,

a) Monthly margin of safety in dollars

Current Sales = 50 rooms x $60 x 30 days = $90,000

Break-even Sales = $48,000

Margin of safety = Current Sales minus Break-even Sales

= $42,000 ($90,000 - $48,000)

b) Margin of safety ratio:

= Margin of safety/Current Sales x 100

= $42,000/$90,000 x 100

= 46.67%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Fixed costs:

Salaries       $9,700 per month

Utilities          2,700 per month

Depreciation 1,300 per month

Maintenance   700 per month

Total         $14,400 per month

Variable costs:

Maid service  8 per room

Other costs 34 per room

Total          $42 per room ($3,150 = $41 x 75 rooms)

Rent          $60 per room ($4,500 = $60 x 75 rooms)

Contribution per room = $18 ($60 - $42)

Contribution per night = $1,350 (75 x $18)

Contribution margin ratio per room = Contribution per room margin/Rent per room x 100

= $18/$60 x 100

=  0.3 or 30%

The Soma Inn's contribution margin per room is equal to the rent per room minus the variable cost per room.  Similarly, the contribution margin ratio per room is the contribution margin per room divided by the rent per room, and then multiplied by 100.

The Soma Inn's margin of safety is the difference between the rent per month and the break-even sales.  The Margin of safety ratio for the Inn is the ratio of current sales minus the breakeven sales, and then divided by current sales, multiplied by 100.

c) Once the purchases of merchandise have been computed, to compute the cost of goods sold becomes easier.  The cost of goods sold for Ahmed Company is the difference between the cost of goods available for sale and the ending inventories of merchandise.

If the dollar appreciates, perhaps because of speculation or government policy, then U.S. net exports:
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

If there is an appreciation in the value of the dollar, it implies that the value of the dollar has increased in comparison to foreign currency. This means that foreign consumers will need to pay more for US goods. This will cause a decline in export demand.  

Because of the decline in exports, the net exports will fall. This decrease in the net exports will cause the aggregate demand to fall. As a result, the aggregate demand curve will shift to the left.

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $42,000

Useful life= 5 years

Salvage value= $2,020

<u>To calculate the annual depreciation under the straight-line method, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (42,000 - 2,020) / 5

Annual depreciation= $7,996

Plummer Industries purchased a machine for $43,800 and is depreciating it with the straight-line method over a life of 8 years,
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

$2,580

Explanation:

Depreciation = (Cost - Residual Value)/ Useful life

Yearly depreciation = ($43-800 - $3000)/8 = $5100

At the end of Year 5, total depreciation would be = $5100 X 5 = $25,500

Net book value at the end of year 5 = $43,800 - $25,500 = $18,300

Year 6, the extra ordinary repair that extended the useful life would be capitalized. Book value = $18,300 + $7,500 = $25,800

As 5 years have been expended, the remaining useful life would be 15-5 = 10 years

Depreciation expense year 6 = $25,800/10 = $2,580
