Paul [167]

Answer:

Compounding interest rate, r = 10.41%

Explanation:

As the investment will be doubled after 7 years from now, the future value of the current investment will be = $10,000 × 2 = $20,000

Therefore,

Number of periods (years), n = 7

Future value, FV = $20,000

Principal = Present Value, PV = $10,000

we have to determine the compounding interest rate, r.

We know,

r = $[(\frac{FV}{PV})^{\frac{1}{n}} - 1]$

Putting the values into the formula, we can get,

r = $[(\frac{20,000}{10,000})^{\frac{1}{7}} - 1]$

or, r = $(2^{\frac{1}{7}} - 1)$

With the help of calculator, we can find the value of $2^{\frac{1}{7}}$ = 1.1041

or, r = (1.1041 - 1)

or, r = 0.1041

Therefore, interest rate = 10.41%

Two firms, Boomburgs and ABC X-Plode, both sell the same fireworks bundle. If they sell their fireworks at the manufacturer's su

Alex_Xolod [135]

1. The profit for ABC X-Plode when both firms charge MSRP is $1,000.

Units ABC X-Plode will sell = 100 units

Profit per unit = $10 ($20 - $10)

Total profit = $1,000 ($10 x 100)

2. The profit for ABC X-Plode when it charges MSRP, but Boomburgs charges below MSRP is $500.

Units ABC X-Plode will sell = 50 units

Profit per unit = $10 ($20 - $10)

Total profit = $500 ($10 x 50)

3. The profit for ABC X-Plode when it charges below MSRP, but Boomburgs charges MSRP is $350.

Units ABC X-Plode will sell = 175 units

Profit per unit = $2 ($12 - $10)

Total profit = $350 ($2 x 175)

4. The profit for ABC X-Plode when both firms charge below MSRP is $250.

Units ABC X-Plode will sell = 125 units

Profit per unit = $2 ($12 - $10)

Total profit = $250 ($2 x 125)

Data and Calculations:

Cost per unit = $10

Quantity sold at MSRP = 100 units

Sales units below MSRP:

One firm sells = 175 units

Second firm sells = 50 units

Sales units for each firm when they sell below MSRP = 125 units

Let:

Price at MSRP = $20

Price Below MSRP = $12

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Sales for august = $110,000

Sales for September = $190,000

So, we can calculate the September cash receipts by using following formula:

Cash receipt from August = $110,000 × 55% = $60,500

Cash receipt from September = $190,000 × 30% = $57,000

Total cash receipt for September = Cash receipt from August + Cash receipt from September

= $60,500 + $57,000

= $117,500
