Perez Concrete Company pours concrete slabs for single-family dwellings. Lancing Construction Company, which operates outside Pe

rez’s normal sales territory, asks Perez to pour 51 slabs for Lancing’s new development of homes. Perez has the capacity to build 460 slabs and is presently working on 160 of them.

Answer: Rooney should accept as there is a chance to make a profit of $53,580

Explanation:

Rooney has the capacity to build the additional slabs so can do so without stopping other orders.

Revenue should Rooney accept project:

= 47 * 2,510

= $117,970

Cost should Rooney accept project:

= (870 * 47) + (500 * 47)

= $64,390

Total profit:

= 117,970 - 64,390

= $53,580

<em>Rooney should accept as there is a chance to make a profit of $53,580</em>

garri49 [273]

Answer:

LPD's projected gross profit for​ April is $70.000 (B)

Explanation:

We can define Gross Profit as follows:

<u>Sales -  Cost of goods sold</u>

In our case, we need to find the gross profit for April:

Projected Sales: $350.000

Cost of goods:  <u> -$280.000 ($350.000 * 80%)</u>

Gross Profit:        $  70.000

The other information can help us to define cash management, because they are related with payments, for example: sales collected, cost payments or cash balance.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

b. raised the price level, but decreased the value of gold in Cairo

Explanation:

In this case, its most likely that inflation would occur because there was a sudden influx of gold into the market thereby reducing the price level of goods because there will be an increase in demand, which if it exceeds supply will increase price. This would further reduce the value of gold in the market because of the unexpected arrival in the market.

Which of the following statements about the consumers’ responses to rising gasoline prices is correct?a. Because gasoline is a n
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Gasoline is a normal good for the consumers. So, if there is an increase in the price of gasoline then as a quantity demanded for gasoline decreases.

Also, quantity demanded for gasoline decreases more in long run than in the short run, this is due to the elasticity of the demand curve. As we know that demand curve for gasoline is more elastic in the long run as compared to the short run.

If the demand curve is more elastic then a little change in the price of a commodity or a good tends to large change in the quantity demanded for that good.

You have just deposited $8,500 into an account that promises to pay you an annual interest rate of 6 percent each year for the n
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

12.51%

Explanation:

after the first 6 years, you will have:

FV = PV (1 + r)ⁿ

  • PV = $8,500
  • r = 6%
  • n = 6

FV = $8,500 (1 + 6%)⁶ = $12,057.41

If you need to have $19,320 in 4 years, then you must determine r:

$19,320 = $12,057.41 (1 + r)⁴

$19,320 / $12,057.41 = (1 + r)⁴

1.6023 = (1 + r)⁴

⁴√1.6023 = 1 + r

1.1251 = 1 + r

1.1251 - 1 = r

0.1251 = r

r = 12.51%
