Basile [38]3 years ago

Answer:

18 years

Explanation:

We can apply the future value formula as below

A = P x ( 1 + r) ^ n

where A is the amount: $100

P= principal amount : $50

r=4% or 0.04

n = ??

Therefore

$100 = $50 x ( 1+ 0.04)^n

$100 = $50( 1.04)^n

1.04^n =$100/$50

1.04^n= 2

n =log 2/ log 1.04

n=0.30102999/0.0170333

n=17.67 years

=18 years

Dean's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee costs Deon $4.75 per pound, and type B
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

type B 50 pounds

type A 94 pounds

Explanation:

First we construct the equation system:

\left \{ {{A_q + B_q = 144} \atop {4.75A_q + 5.9B_q = 741.5}} \right. \\

Now we clear one and replace:

A_q = 144 - B_q\\4.75A_q + 5.9B_q = 741.5\\4.75(144 - B_q) + 5.9B_q = 741.5

And we can solve for type B:

4.75\times 144 - 4.75B_q + 5.9B_q = 741.5\\1.15B_q = 741.5 - 684\\B_q = 57.5 / 1.15 = 50

And now we can solve for quantity of A as well:

A = 144 - 50 = 94

<u>Finally we can check the answer if it is correct:</u>

50 x 5.9 + 94 X 4.75 =

   295       +      446,5‬   = 741,5‬

Village Bank has $310 million worth of assets with a duration of 12 years and liabilities worth $248 million with a duration of
vitfil [10]

Answer:

2129  futures contracts to be sold

Explanation:

Asset worth = $310 million

Asset duration = 12 years

liabilities = $248 million

Liabilities duration = 5 years

T-bond futures contracts = 104-20 (30nds)

% of assets = 310 / 248 =

<u>Determine how many futures contracts Village Bank will sell to fully hedge the balance </u>

Number of Contracts = -[Assets * (Asset Duration – (Liabilities Duration * % of Assets) / (Duration * Contract Value)]

 = - [ 310 * ( 12 - ( 5 * (310/248)) / ( 8 * ( 104 + ( 20/30)) ]

= - [ 310 * ( 12 -  6.25 ) / ( 8 * 104.6667 ) ]

= - [ 310 * 5.75 / 837.3336 ]

= - 2.12878 * 1000

= 2128.78 ≈  2129 ( number of futures contracts to be sold )

Write-off

Debit Bad Debts expense $11,000 Credit Accounts receivable $11,000

Recovery

Debit Bank $1,800 Credit Bad Debt Recovered income $1,800

Allowance for Doubtful debt Adjustment

Debit Allowance for doubtful debt Adjustment $4,000 Credit Allowance for doubtful debt $4,000

Explanation:

Write-off

The write-off creates an expense (bad debt) and and decreases an asset ( Accounts receivable)

Recovery

Since the amount has been written off as bad, when it is recovered it is no longer recognized as a payment on accounts receivable but an income the entity thought was lost.

Allowance for doubtful debt adjustment

The differences in the opening balance and closing balance either creates an expense or an income adjustment. These estimates are on net Accounts receivables ( after bad debts) are a negative assets.

19000 - 15000 = 4000(increase) adjustment and is an expense.
