Answer:

72 cents

Explanation:

There is going to be a margin call when greater than 1000 dollars has been lost from the margin. Then the balance in the account is going to be smaller than that of the maintenance margin. so 1 cent increase in the price would bring about a lossof

0.01 * 50000

= $500

if the increase in the future price is about 2 cents then there would be a margin call.

70+2 = 72cents, this is when there would be a margin call

hichkok12 [17]
The number of additional items that Belle Co. purchased is equal to 27. That is, 7 + 8 + 12 which is equal to 27. The concept of LIFO is "Last In First Out" which means that the ones that has been purchased last should be dispensed off first. 

The company sold 31 units. 27 of this is already the newly purchased ones and 4 came from the beginning inventory leaving the number of items to only 8 sets of paint for $1.5. 

The cost of the ending inventory is,

                 I = 8($1.5) = $12

2. When the economy is in a recession, the Federal Reserve usually cuts interest rates. Why would the federal government do this
Airida [17]
The purpose of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates during a recession is to encourage borrowing (borrowing becomes cheaper) and in this way especially for companies they may spend more money then  on improvements, new products etc so the economy theoretically will be stimulated to counteract the recession.

Aberwald Corporation expects to sell 90,000 bags of lawn fertilizer annually. The optimal safety stock (which is on hand initial
UNO [17]

Answer:

Annual demand (U) = 90.000 bags

Cost of each bag = $1.50

Inventory carrying cost per unit(C) = $1.50 × 20% = 0 30

Ordering cost per unit (O) = $15

Part A)

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2UO}{C}}

EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 90000 * 15}{0.30}}

EOQ = \sqrt{9000000}

EOQ = 3,000

Part B)

Maximum inventory = EOQ + Safety inventory on hand  

Maximum inventory = 3000 + 1000

Maximum inventory = 4.000

Part C)

Average inventory = Maximum inventory + Minimum or Safety /2

Average inventory = 4,000 + 1,000 / 2

Average inventory =2,500

Part D)

How often company order = Annual demand / EOQ

How often company order = 90,000 / 3.000

How often company order = 30
