c) because of the time value of money the principal generates interest over time making the installment pay up both concept principal and interest.

d) they decrease as the principal decreases over time as the lease payment exceeds the interest accrued over the year.

Explanation:

a) it will record at the present value of the lease payment annuity

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 24,500

time 12

rate 0.09

24500 \times \frac{1-(1+0.09)^{-12} }{0.09} = PV\\

PV $175,437.7693

b)

calcualte the interest accrued over the year and subtract the lease payment

this makes a new balance of the loan principal which start the process again until it is fully paid.

I think the answer is <span>unit-elastic over this price range.  This happens  when a company earns the same revenue even with some slight changes on the prices. It means that slight increase or even decrease in price does not affect the revenue of the company.</span>

b) In an income statement vertical analysis, each line item is calculated as a percentage of the sales, which is itself 100%.  This enables the proportional analysis of all the items to be computed about their financial performance in relation to the sales for the period.  It can help management to dictate unusual items, errors, and other outliers.

c) The balance sheet trend analysis shows whether the entity's financial position is improving or not in relation to the base period.  Each item is compared horizontally across periods.  The calculation of trend uses the amount in the non-base year and divides it by the amount of the base year x 100.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

A) sample size = 23.475 ≈ 23

B) How to tell someone to do the test is by taking a sampling process of a lot of the products because this will help to figure out defective units in the line of production and also ensure that the quality of the products are up to the same quality required

Explanation:

Data given

AQL = 20%, = 0.2

LTPD = 52% = 0.52

Assuming consumer risk acceptable by company = 10%

producer risk = 5%

A) First we calculate the ratio

= LTPD / AQL = 0.52 / 0.2  = 2.6

from the table of LTPD/AQL   2.6 is closest to 2.768

to calculate the sample size we apply the formula from the exhibit table

n ( AQL ) = 4.695

Therefore n ( sample size ) = 4.695 / 0.2 = 23.475

B) How to tell someone to do the test is by taking a sampling process of a lot of the products because this will help to figure out defective units in the line of production and also ensure that the quality of the products are up to the same quality required
