RideShare offers short-term rentals of vehicles that are kept in small lots in urban neighborhoods with plenty of potential cust

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

a. Offered load = 1 lot / 4 hours = 6 cars/4 hours = 1.5 cars/hours

b. Demand rate = Total cars per 4 hours/20 minutes time

Demand rate = 6*4 / 20

Demand rate = 24/20

Demand rate = 1.2 cars/hours

Implied utilization = Demand rate / Offered load

Implied utilization = 1.2/1.5

Implied utilization = 0.8

Implied utilization = 80%

c. Capacity of the process = 1 lot / 5 hours

Capacity of the process = 6 / 5

Capacity of the process = 1.2 rentals per hours

d. Probability that all eight cars are rented at the same time

=> (1 - 0.8) * (0.8)^8

=> 0.2 * 0.1678

=> 0.03356

=> 3.36

A firm's current profits are $400,000. These profits are expected to grow indefinitely at a constant annual rate of 4 percent. I

Valentin [98]

Answer:

A. $21,200,000

B. $20,800,000

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine The instant before it pays out current profits as dividends

Value of the firm =[(Current profits) × (1 +Opportunity cost of funds)} ÷ (Opportunity cost of funds - Constant growth annual rate)

Let plug in the formula

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1 + 0.06)]÷ (0.06 - 0.04)

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1.06)]÷0.02

Value of the firm= $424,000 ÷ 0.02

Value of the firm= $21,200,000

Therefore The instant before it pays out current profits as dividends will be $21,200,000

B. Calculation to determine The instant after it pays out current profits as dividends

Using this formula

Value of the firm =[(Current profits) × (1 +Constant growth annual rate)} ÷ (Opportunity cost of funds - Constant growth annual rate)

Let plug in the formula

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1 + 0.04)] ÷ (0.06 - 0.04)

Value of the firm= [($400,000) × (1.04)] ÷ (0.06 - 0.04)

Value of the firm= $416,000 ÷ 0.02

Value of the firm= $20,800,000

Therefore The instant after it pays out current profits as dividends will be $20,800,000

An investment earned the following returns over a four-year period: 28 percent, 21 percent, 1 percent, and -36 percent. What is

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

A) 0.0618

Explanation:

Variance is given by:

$V = \frac{\sum(Xi - \mu)^2}{n}$

Where 'Xi' is the value for each term 'i' in the sample of size 'n' and μ is the sample mean.

The mean investment return is:

$\mu = \frac{0.28+0.21+0.01-0.36}{4} \\\mu = 0.035$

The variance is:

$V = \frac{\sum(Xi - \mu)^2}{n}\\V = \frac{(0.28- 0.035)^2+(0.21- 0.035)^2+(0.01- 0.035)^2+(-0.36- 0.035)^2}{4}\\V= 0.0618$

The variance of the returns on this investment is A) 0.0618.
