Answer:

Explanation:

Annual demand (D) = 20000 units

Number of days per year = 250

Demand rate(d) = D/number of days per year = 20000/250 = 80 units

Production rate(p) = 655 units

Set up cost(S) = $1800

Holding cost (H) = $1.50

A) Optimum run size(Q) = sqrt of {2DS / H [1-(d/p)]}

= sqrt of {(2x20000x1800) /1.50[1-(80/655)]}

= Sqrt of [7200000/1.50(1-0.1221) ]

= sqrt of [72000000/(1.50 x 0.8779)]

= sqrt of (7200000/1.31685)

= Sqrt of 5467593.1199

= 2338 units

b) Maximum inventory ( I - max) = (Q/p) (p-d) = (2338/655)(655-80) = 3.5695 x 575 = 2052.46 or rounded off to 2052 units

Average inventory = I-max/2 = 2052/2 = 1026 units

C) Number of production setups per year = D/Q = 20000/2338 = 8.55 or rounded up to 6

d) optimal length of production run  = optimal run size /production rate = 2338/655 = 3.56 or rounded up to 4 days

Vangaurd Health System bonds have an annual coupon rate of 8 percent and a par value of $1,000 and will mature in 20 years. If y
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Price willing to pay=$1105.94

Explanation:

Annual Coupon Payment=$1,000*0.08

Annual Coupon Payment=$80

Calculating Present Value (PV) of Par Value:

PV=\frac{FV}{(1+i)^{20}}

Where:

i is the rate of return.

FV is par value

PV=\frac{\$1000}{(1+0.07)^{20}}

PV= $258.419.

Calculating PV of annual Coupon Payment:

PV=A\frac{1-(1+i)^{-20}}{i}

i is the coupon rate

A is the annual Payment

PV=\$80\frac{1-(1+0.07)^{-20}}{0.07}

PV=$847.521

Price willing to pay= Present Value (PV) of Par Value+ PV of annual Coupon Payment

Price willing to pay=$258.419+$847.521

Price willing to pay=$1105.94

Jeff receives a paycheck of $2,100 twice per month. His monthly expenses include: $1,500 on rent, $400 on a car payment, $120 fo
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

$1,280

Explanation:

Given that,

Rent expense = $1,500

Car payment = $400

Cellphone expense = $120

Utilities = $450

Groceries expenses = $250

Entertainment expenses = $200

Jeff receives a paycheck of $2,100 twice per month, the amount received in a month is calculated as follows:

= $2,100 × 2

= $4,200

The amount left after deducting all of the expenses:

= Amount received - Rent expense - Car payment - Cellphone expense - Utilities - Groceries expenses - Entertainment expenses

= $4,200 - $1,500 - $400 - $120 - $450 - $250 - $200

= $1,280

Therefore, he have left over $1,280 for the month.

The table below contains data for the country of batterland, which produces only waffles and pancakes. the base year is 2013 . p
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Firstly, you should calculate the prices of your market basket, which basically means multiply all the goods with their prices and then add them together in their respective years. This would give you $260, $440, $690 and $1200 in the years 2010 to 2013 respectively. (follow along by noting everything down)

We see that the base year is 2013, therefore if we want to calculate the inflation rate from 2010 to 2011, we have to calculate their price indices. We do this by dividing the maket basket of our chosen years by the market basket of the base year, therefore the price index of 2010 is $260/$1200, giving us 21.6. The price index of 2011 would be $440/$1200, giving us 36.6. To calculate the inflation rate, you find the difference between your two price indices and divide it by the former year, which would be 36.6 - 21.6 / 21.6 x 100, giving us the inflation rate of 69.2%.
