Answer:
Present value (PV) = $3,000
Interest rate (r) = 6% = 0.06
Number of years (n) = 2 years
Future value (FV) = ?
FV = PV(1 + r)n
FV = $3,000(1 + 0.06)2
FV = $3,000(1.06)2
FV= $3,000 x 1.1236
FV = $3.370.80
Explanation:
In this case, there is need to compound the present value for 2 years at 6% interest per annum. The formula to be applied is the formula for future value of a lump sum (single investment).
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $1.5
Fixed costs= $2,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Miles Driven Total Cost
January 10,000 $17,000
February 8,000 13,500
March 9,000 14,400
April 7,000 12,500
<u>To calculate the variable and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (17,000 - 12,500) / (10,000 - 7,000)
Variable cost per unit= $1.5
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 17,000 - (1.5*10,000)
Fixed costs= $2,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 12,500 - (1.5*7,000)
Fixed costs= $2,000
Answer:
1.
$7,250
2.
$284,562.5
3.
Dr. Bond Payable $290,000
Dr. Loss on Retirement $18,487.5
Cr. Bond Discount $5,437.5
Cr. Cash $303,050
Explanation:
1.
Bond is issued on the discount when it is issued below the face value.
Discount value = Face value - Issuance value = $290,000 - $282,750 = $7,250
2.
Carrying value of the bond is the net of face value of the bond and un-amortised bond discount.
Carrying value = 290,000 - ($7,250 x (20-5) / 20) = $284,562.5
3.
Bond Discount = $7,250 x 15/20 = $5,437.5
Answer: The project should be accepted.
Explanation:
The Internal Rate of Revenue is used to evaluate projects before they are accepted. It is a rate that equates the Net Present Value of cashflows to zero.
If the IRR is higher than the Required return then the Project will be accepted because it means that NPV will be higher than zero. The reverse is true.
Given the cashflows in the question, the IRR is;
= 18.8% according to Excel.
With the IRR higher than the required return of 8%, the project should be accepted.
3. I would want the elected representative to support this. If there is a tax on clothing coming in then it would be more expensive and less people will buy it.
6. I wouldn't want the elected representative to support this. This would eliminate entry barriers and price controls, which would most likely make the trucking company that my factory uses to transport prices' go up.
I don't know the rest
