Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Given,

Annual demand, D = 12500,

Setting up cost, S = $ 49,

Production rate per year, P = production facility × capability of production = 300 × 105 = 31500,

Holding cost per year, H = $ 0.15,

Hence,

(i) Optimal size of the production run,

$Q = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H(1-\frac{D}{P})}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 12500\times 49}{0.15(1-\frac{12500}{31500})}}=3679.60238126\approx 3680$

(ii) Average holding cost per year,

$=\frac{QH}{2}(1-\frac{D}{P})$

$=\frac{3680\times 0.15}{2}(1-\frac{12500}{31500})$

$=166.476190476$

$\approx \$ 166.48$

(iii) Average setup cost per year,

$=\frac{D}{Q}\times S$

$=\frac{12500}{3680}\times 49$

$=166.44021739$

$\approx \$ 166.44$

(iv) Total cost per year = average setup cost per year + average holding cost per year + cost to purchase 12500 lights

= 166.44 + 166.48 + 12500(0.95)

= $ 12207.92

Future value= $50,000

Number of periods= 5*2= 10

To calculate the initial investment to reach the objective, we need to use the following formula:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 50,000/(1.03^10)

PV= $37,204.70

As you get closer to needing the money from an investment, what happens to your risk tolerance

Sedbober [7]

Risk tolerance gets lower and lower as you get closer to needing the money from your investment.

If you don't need the money for 50 years, you are more likely to take risks in the stock market or other higher risk investments in return for higher rewards. If you need the money tomorrow, you will not be willing to risk it all in the stock market because even though it could double, you might lose it all.

Company X purchased Company Y using financing as follows: $18 million from mortgages, $3 million from retained earnings, $13 mil

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The debt to equity mix = 74.65% - 25.35%

Explanation:

The computation of the debt to equity mix is shown below:

Debt is

= Mortgages + Bond

= $18 + $35

= $53 million

And, the Equity is

= Retained earnings + Cash in hand

= $5 + $13

= $18 million

Now

Percentage of debt financing

= $53 ÷ ($53 + $18)

= 74.65%

And, percentage of equity financing is

= $18 ÷ ($53 + $18)

= 25.35%

And, finally

The debt to equity mix = 74.65% - 25.35%
