Answer:
The correct answer is the letter a. "Make more than 20 wedding cakes a month."
Explanation:
To maximize profit the marginal price of each cake must equal the marginal cost of each cake. The marginal cost is 300 and the marginal price is 5000/20 = 250. The marginal price of each cake (250) is less than the marginal cost of each cake (300), so Laura needs to make more than 20 cakes to increase her revenue and maximize her profit.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
Security A : 11 = 1( 1 + r)^15
11^(1/15) = 1( 1 + r)
1.173 = 1 + r
r = 1.173 - 1
r = 17.33%
Security A : 16 = 1( 1 + r)^15
16^(1/15) = 1( 1 + r)
1.20 = 1 + r
r = 1.2 - 1
r = 0.2
r = 20%
Security B earned a higher average annual rate of return as 20% is greater than 17.33%
Answer:
No, he should <u>not</u> pick up the $100 bill
Explanation:
If his salary were those $20 billion (20,000,000,000) by a year. Let's find out how much this is by a second.
First let's find out how much is that salary by <em>a day</em>, then by <em>an hour</em>, then by <em>a minute</em> and finally by <em>a second</em>.

So he would be losing money if he picks up the $100 bill, because he would be missing 634 dollars per second.
