Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>To calculate the variable and fixed costs, we need to use the following formulas:</u>

<u></u>

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (1,650 - 300) / (300 - 40)

Variable cost per unit= $5.1923

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 1,650 - (5.1923*300)

Fixed costs= $92.31

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 300 - (5.1923*40)

Fixed costs= $92.31

An author just signed a lucrative contract with a publisher that offers to pay her the amount of $500 at the end of year 9 when
solong [7]

Answer:

Ans. The annuity that will be equivalent to the publisher´s advance would be $26.40 per year, for 9 years at 7% interest rate.

Explanation:

Hi, first, let´s bring that $500 to be paid in 9 years to present value, we need to use the following formula.

PresentValue=\frac{FutureValue}{(1+r)^{n} }

Where: r is our discount rate (7%) and n the periods from now when she will receive that $500 amount. This should look like this.

PresentValue=\frac{500}{(1+0.07)^{9} } =271.97

Ok, so the equivalent amount of money today of those $500 in nine years is $271.97, but the author wants $100 today so the remaining amount has to be used to find the equal annual payments to be made in order to be equivalent to re remaining balance ($171.97). We now need to use the following equation.

Present Value=\frac{A((1+r)^{n}-1 )}{r(1+r)^{n} }

And we solve for "A" like this

171.97=\frac{A((1+0.07)^{9}-1 )}{0.07(1+0.07)^{9} }

171.97=\frac{A(0.838459212 )}{0.128692145}

171.97=A(6.515232249)

A=\frac{171.97}{6.515232249} = 26.40

Therefore, the equivalent amount of money of $500 in 9 years is $100 today and $26.40 every year, at the end of the year, for nine years.

Best of luck.

A corporate bond has a face value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 9.5%. The bond matures in 12 years and has a current market pri
joja [24]

Answer:

5.71%

Explanation:

The after tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)

where t is the tax rate of 35% or 0.35

pretax cost of debt=yield to maturity

The yield to maturity can be determined using rate formula in excel as below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon interest payable by the bonds i.e 12 coupons in 12 years

pmt is the annual coupon=$1000*9.5%=$95

pv is the current market price-flotation cost=$1,100-$48=$1052

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(12,95,-1052,1000)=8.78%

After tax cost of debt=8.78% *(1-0.35)=5.71%

Bad White [126]

Answer:

$210,000.

Explanation:

Given:

Cost of goods sold = $420,000

Sales revenue = $800,000

Operating expenses = $170,000

Question asked:

What amount will the company report for operating income ?

Solution:

As we know, Operating Income = Gross Profit- Operating Expenses

First of all we will find gross profit,

Gross Profit = Net Sales – Cost of goods sold

                    = $800,000 -  $420,000

                    = $380,000

Now, Operating Income = Gross Profit- Operating Expenses

                                        = $380,000 -  $170,000

                                        = $210,000

Therefore, consider the following year-end information for a company, its Operating Income is  $210,000.
