Answer:

Sunland Co.

The calculation of the cost ratio should be based on cost and retail of $1,581,000 and $2,288,500 respectively.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost Retail Cost to Retail Ratio

Beginning inventory $ 318,000 $494,000

Purchases 1,240,000 1,720,000

Freight-in 23,000 —

Employee discounts — 8,500

Net markups — 66,000

Goods available for sale $1,581,000 $2,288,500 69.08%

Less:

Net markdowns — 86,000

Sales revenue — 1,620,000

Estimated ending Inventory at retail $582,500

Estimated ending Inventory

at cost $402,391 ($582,500 * 69.08%)

Calculation of the cost ratio = $1,581,000/$2,288,500 * 100 = 69.08%

Beatrice invests $1,410 in an account that pays 3 percent simple interest. How much more could she have earned over a 4-year per

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

$7.77

Explanation:

The answer would be the difference between compound and simple interest

Simple interest = principal x time x interest

$1,410 x 0.03 x 4 = $169.20

Compound interest = future value - present value

future value = Principal ( 1 + interest)^n

$1,410 ( 1.03)^4 = $1586.96

$1586.96 -$1,410 = $176.97

Difference = $176.97 - $169.20 = $7.77

A University of Iowa basketball standout is offered a choice of contracts by the New York Liberty.

Ratling [72]

Answer: The lowest interest rate at which the present value of the second contract exceeds that of the first is a. 7 percent.

Explanation:

Calculating present values is a useful way to compare cases where money is to be received in the future. The higher the present value (when comparing cases where you get money), the better. To calculate it, we make use of the next formula:

$PV=\frac{C}{(1+r)^{n}}$

Where PV: Present value,

C: Cash flow at a given period,

r: Interest rate, and

n: Number of periods that will have passed (in this case, we are talking about years).

Now, since we are getting money twice in each case (the first payment one year from today, and the final payment two years from today), we can restructure our present value formula to include these two payments. We will get something like this:

$PV=\frac{C_1}{1+r}+\frac{C_2}{(1+r)^{2}}$

Notice how each fraction represents one of the payments received, with one having an 'n' of 1 year, and the other one having an 'n' of 2 years. C₁ and C₂ represent the first and the second payment, respectively.

Now that we have our completed formula, let's review each contract's present value (PV) with the lowest interest rate (7%), just to see how it turns out. Remember that 7% equals 0.07 in any formula:

Contract A) This one gives her $100,000 one year from today and $100,000 two years from today.

$PV_{A,0.07}=\frac{100000}{1+0.07}+\frac{100000}{(1+0.07)^{2}}\\PV_{A,0.07}=93457.944+87343.873\\PV_{A,0.07}=180801.817dollars$

So Contract A's present value at 7% interest rate would be equal to $180801.817.

Contract B) The second one gives her $132,000 one year from today and $66,000 two years from today.

$PV_{B,0.07}=\frac{132000}{1+0.07}+\frac{66000}{(1+0.07)^{2}}\\PV_{B,0.07}=123364.486+57646.956\\PV_{B,0.07}=181011.442dollars$

So Contract B's present value at 7% interest rate would be equal to $181011.442, which exceeds that of Contract A.

Since among our options of interest rates, 7 percent is the lowest one, and, with this taken into account, the present value of the second contract (Contract B) exceeded that of the first (Contract A), the answer is a. 7 percent.
