Demand Curve Price at Y axis, Quantity at Axis, Slope= ∆Y/∆X becomes

= ∆P/∆Q. As per given details, ∆P/∆Q = (9-10)/(5-4) = -1/1 = -1

Space travel is expensive! For their trip to the Moon, the Apollo astronauts' living quarters were only 213 cubic feet (that's s
RSB [31]

Answer:

5341288

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Volume of the living quarters = 213 cubic feet

Now,

The dimensions of the US dollar bills are

width = 2.61 inches

Length = 6.14 inches

Thickness = 0.0043 inches

Thus,

Volume of a single dollar bill = 2.61 × 6.14 × 0.0043

= 0.06890922 cubic inches

Also,

Volume of quarter in cubic inches = 213 × 12³  

[ ∵ 1 ft = 12 inches  ; 1 ft³ = 12³ cubic inches]

Thus,

Volume of quarter in cubic inches = 368064 cubic inches.

Thus,

Number of dollar bills that can fit in there

= [ Volume of quarter in cubic inches ] ÷ Volume of a single dollar bill

= 368064 ÷ 0.06890922

= 5341288.15 ≈ 5341288

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

A) 10,200

Explanation:

Capital balance of both partners :

Cody Jenkins = $39,000

Lacey Tanner = $51,000

Existing capital =. $(39,000 + 51,000) = $90,000

New purchase price - Solano = $24,000

Total capital = $(90,000 + 24000) = $114,000

New capital :

New partner share × total capital

New partner capital = 30 % × 114000 = $34,200

Amount of partner bonus = new purchase price - new partner capital

Amount of partner bonus = 24,000 - 34,200 = - $10,200

Bonus share ratio:

Cody Jenkins and Lacey Tanner share profit and losses equally :

Cody Jenkins and Lacey Tanner :

0.5 × 10,200 = -$5,100

B)

Account. - - - - - - - - - - - - - Debit - - - - - Credit

Capital: valerio Solano - - - - - - - - - - - 34,200

Capital: Cody Jenkins - - - 5,100

Capital: Lacey Tanner - - - 5,100

Total - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 34,200 - - - 34,200

C.)

The purchase price is less than the book value of the 30% percentage of the partnership purchase, valerio Solano purchase price was $24,000 but he was allocated 30% of total capital which is $34,200
