Initial price = $0.88 (Jan. 1980)
Final price = $2.11 (Jan. 2015)

Change in price = $2.11 - $0.88 = $1.23
Percentage rise in price = 100(1.23/0.88) = 139.8% ≈ 140%
The average yearly rise in price = 139.8/(2015-1980) ≈ 4%

Answer:
Total percent rise in price = 140%
Average yearly rise in price = 4%

Blossom provides environmentally friendly lawn services for homeowners. Its operating costs are as follows.

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Break-even point = 110 lawns & Break-even sales point = $8,800

Explanation:

Total fixed costs = Depreciation + Advertising + Insurance

Total fixed costs = 1,400 + 200 + 3,680

Total fixed costs = $5280/month

Total variable cost per unit = Weed + Direct labor + Fuel

Total variable cost per unit = 13 + 16 + 3

Total variable cost per unit = $32/lawn

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales per unit - variable cost per unit) / sales per unit

Contribution margin ratio = (80 - 32) / 80

Contribution margin ratio = 0.6

Contribution margin ratio = 60%

Break-even sales = Fixed costs / contribution margin ratio

Break-even sales = $5280 / 60%

Break-even sales = $8800

Break-even sales units = Break-even sales / sales per unit

Break-even sales units = 8800 / 80

Break-even sales units = 110 lawns

Break-even point = 110 lawns & Break-even sales point = $8,800

A category that is not in the chart of accounts is

Lera25 [3.4K]

Let's look at the Accounting Equation = Assets = Liabilties + Stockholders' Equity

For most businesses, their chart of accounts will include Current Assets (or Short Term Assets) as well as Long Term Assets. An example of a current asset if cash, and a building is a long term asset.

Short term and long term Liabilities are also included too - money you owe. A Note Payable is a long term example, Interest Payable is a short term one.

Stockholders' Equity is one too - these include your stocks, your retained earnings.

But, expect for Retained Earnings, the names of your <em>statements </em>are not. So "Balance Sheet" is not a category, nor is "Cash Flows Statement".

One year ago, Alpha Supply issued 15-year bonds at par. The bonds have a coupon rate of 6.5 percent, paid semiannually, and a fa

Masja [62]

Answer:

option (C) - 6.11%

Explanation:

Data provided :

Coupon rate one year ago = 6.5% = 0.065

Semiannual coupon rate = $\frac{0.065}{2}$ = 0.0325

Face value = $1,000

Present market yield = 7.2% = 0.072

Semiannual Present market yield, r = $\frac{0.072}{2}$ = 0.036

Now,

With semiannual coupon rate bond price one year ago, C

= 0.0325 × $1,000

= $32.5

Total period in 15 years = 15 year - 1 year = 14 year

n = 14 × 2 = 28 semiannual periods

Therefore,

The present value = $C\times[\frac{(1-(1+r)^{-n})}{r}]+FV(1+r)^{-n}$

= $\$32.5\times[\frac{(1-(1+0.036)^{-28})}{0.036}]+\$1,000\times(1+0.036)^{-28}$

= $32.5 × 17.4591 + $1,000 × 0.37147

= $567.42 + $371.47

= $938.89

Hence,

The percent change in bond price = $\frac{\textup{Final price - Initial price}}{\textup{Initial price}}\times100\%$

= $\frac{\textup{938.89-1,000}}{\textup{1,000}}$

= - 6.11%

therefore,

the correct answer is option (C) - 6.11%
