Answer:
The correct answer is option c.
Explanation:
The nominal interest rate was 5 percent.
The CPI was 150.3 at the end of the year, and the CPI was 144.2 at the beginning of the year.
The 5% nominal interest rate means that the dollar value of savings increased at 5%.
Inflation rate
= 
= 0.0423 or 4.2%
The real interest rate
= Nominal interest rate - rate of inflation
= 5 - 4.2
= 0.8%
The real interest rate of 0.8% indicates that the purchasing power of savings increased at 0.8%.
Answer:
WACC = 0.18 or 18%
Option b is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wP * rP + wE * rE
Where,
- w represents the weight of each component
- D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively
- r represents the cost of each component
- rD * (1-tax rate) represents the after tax cost of debt
WACC = 0.2 * 0.16 + 0.8 * 0.185
WACC = 0.18 or 18%
Answer:
Trade-in allowance
Explanation:
A trade-in allowance is a type of discount in which the price of a good is reduced by the value of a another good that the buyer gives to the seller.
In this question, we have a trade-in-allowance because buyers give a product (a used vacuum cleaner) valued at $100 in exchange for a discount by the same amount of the total price of the new vacuum that they want to buy.
Answer: The options are given below:
A. $18.00
B. $1,036.80
C. $2.00
D. $7.20
E. $64.00
The correct option is D. $7.20
Explanation:
From the question above, we were given:
Annual demand = 100,000 units
Production = 4 hour cycle
d = 400 per day (250 days per year)
p = 4000 units per day
H = $40 per unit per year
Q = 200
We will be using the EPQ or Q formula to calculate the cost setup, thus:
Q = √(2Ds/H) . √(p/(p-d)
200=√(2x400x250s/40 . √(4000/(4000-400)
200=√5,000s . √1.11
By squaring both sides, we have:
40,000=5,550s
s=40,000/5,550
s=7.20
Answer: product benefit
