Project (Hours)
Consultant A B C D
Charlie 13 16 11 13
Betty 11 15 14 18
Johnny 15 22 12 15
Rick 17 17 12 22

In how many different ways can she assign these consultants to these projects?

Answer:

c. 24

d. Charlie to D; Betty to A; Johnny to C; Rick to B

e. 53 hours

Explanation:

She has four possible consultants for project A, after choosing one, she has three possible choices for project B, two for project C and is left with just one choice for project D. Therefore, the number of different ways she can assign these consultants is:

n=4*3*2*1\\n=24\ ways

There are 24 ways.

Since this is a multiple choice question, the simplest way to solve it is to test the given alternatives to find out which one yields the least number of hours:

A = 13+14+22+17=66\\B=13+15+12+17=57\\C=13+15+12+22=62\\D=13+11+12+17=53\\E=11+11+15+17=54

Therefore, alternative d. Charlie to D; Betty to A; Johnny to C; Rick to B is the optimal one.

As calculated above, it will take these consultants 53 hours to complete all projects.

algol13

Answer:

A. $516,000

B. $696,600

Explanation:

A. Calculation to to determine the value of the Company's equity

First step is to calculate the Net income

Sales1,540,000

Less: Cost of goods sold790,000

Less: General and administrative costs525,000

Less: Interest expenses53,000

Income before corporate tax 172,000

Less: Corporate tax 40% 68,800

(40%*172,000)

Net income103,200

(172,000-68,800)

Now let determine the value of the Company's equity using this formula

Value of the Company's equity

= Net income/ cost of the firm’s levered equity

Let plug in the formula

Value of the Company's equity = $103,200/0.20

Value of the Company's equity = $516,000

Therefore The Value of the Company's equity is $516,000

B. Calculation to determine the total value of Company equity

First step is to calculate the Debt

Debt equity Ratio = 0.35

Debt/Equity = 0.35

Debt/ $516,000 = 0.35

Debt = $516,000 * 0.35

Debt =$180,600

Now let determine The Company’s value using this formula

Company’s Total value = Equity + Debt

Let plug in the formula

Company’s Total value = $516,000 + $180,600

Company’s Total value = $696,600

Therefore the total value of Company equity is $696,600
