Answer:

The premium payments of all the insured clients will cover the costs for the emergencies of the few who need it. The more people that pay premiums, the less likely each insured client will experience an emergency.

Answer:

3 years

Explanation:

First method

The PV of the investment can be written as:

PV1 = $15,000 + $32,500/(1+0.06)^n

Second method

The PV of the investment can be written as:

PV2 = $23,000 + $23,000/(1+0.06)^n

After n years both projects will be economically equal. Hence their present value must be equal PV1 = PV2

$15,000 + $32,500/(1.06)^n = $23,000 + $23,000/(1.06)^n

$23,000 - $15,000 = $32,500/(1.06)^n - $23,000/(1.06)^n

$8,000 = $9,500/(1.06)^n

(1.06)^n = $9,500/$8,000

(1.06)^n = 1.1875

Taking log on both sides we get:

nlog1.06 = log 1.1875

n = log 1.1875/log 1.06

n = 0.07463361829/0.02530586526

n = 2.94926166417121

n = 3

So, the answer is 3 years

Answer:

D: Loss leading

Explanation:

Loss leading or the loss leaders is the concept where we decree the price of certain well known and popular products to such a level that customers are amazed. We even start selling that product below its cost as well. The basic logic behind loss leaders is to increase the store traffic and therefore increasing the sales. For example, if everyone is selling eggs at $2 per dozen, and you get it at $1.5 from the whole seller then you can either sell it at the same amount on which you purchasing it from the whole seller, at $1.5 or even below than this at £1.3. People knows that eggs are usually sols at $1.5 but your concept of loss leading will attract them towards your store, and besides purchasing eggs at $1.3, they will also but many other high profit margins products as well.

A company earned $2,880 in net income for October. Its net sales for October were $12,000. Its profit margin is:

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

profit margin = 23.33%

Explanation:

profit margin = net profit / net sales

net profit = $2,800
net sales = $12,000

profit margin = $2,800 / $12,000 = 0.233333 = 23.33%

The profit margin is a profitability ratio used to compare how many cents different companies are able to make from selling $1. Different companies have different sales levels, but we can group companies by industries and then compare them in order to determine which ones are more efficient at generating income. E.g. Company A sells $100 million but only makes $2 million in profits per year (PM = 2%), and it is much less efficient than Company B that sells $10 million and makes $1 in profits (PM = 10%). Company A's costs are too high compared to Company B's costs.
