Answer: 14.4 years

Explanation:

You can use the Rule of 72 to find out.

The Rule of 72 is a very useful formula that shows the amount of time it would take an amount to double given a certain growth rate.

The formula is:

= 72 / Growth rate in whole numbers

= 72 / 5

= 14.4 years

Approximately 14.4 years

You are thinking of opening a Broadway play, I Love You, You’re Mediocre, Now Get Better! It will cost $5 million to develop the
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

39 weeks

Explanation:

initial investment = $5 million

Your goal is to a better person and get rich by doubling your development costs. You want to earn $10 million in profits, so you will need to sell a lot of seats.

8 shows per week x 100 weeks = 800 shows

revenue per ticket = $50 + $1.50 = $51.50

tickets sold per show = 800 x 80% = 640

total revenue per show = 640 x $51.50 = $32,960

variable cost per show (assuming 7 nights per week) = $7,000 / 8 = $875

contribution margin per show = $32,960 - $875 = $32,085

number of shows needed to earn $10 million in profits = $10,000,000 / $32,085 = 311.67 shows

number of weeks = 311.67 / 8 = 38.96 ≈ 39 weeks

In the figure below, ∆LMN is an equilateral triangle, side \overline {LM} LM is bisected by O, side \overline {LN} LM is bisecte
likoan [24]

Based on the calculations, the measure of angle PON (∠PON) in equilateral triangle LMN is equal to 30°.

<h3>What is an equilateral triangle?</h3>

An equilateral triangle can be defined as a special type of triangle that has equal side lengths and all of its three (3) interior angles are equal.

Since triangle LMN is an equilateral triangle, the following applies:

LN = LM = MN

∠LNM = ∠L = ∠LM = 60°

OP // MN (O and P are midpoint).

∠NPO = 90° + (90° - 60°) = 120°

∠PNO = ∠LNP/2 = 60/2 = 30°.

Therefore, ∠PON is given by:

∠PON = 180° - (∠PNO + ∠NPO)

∠PON = 180° - (30° + 120°)

∠PON = 180° - 150°

∠PON = 30°

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

                                                   Q1               Q2             Q3            Q4

a. Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

b. Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

c. Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Explanation:

Given:

                              Q1                Q2           Q3           Q4

Sales ($)               860              940         900         1,000

Therefore, we  have:

a. Calculate payments to suppliers assuming that the company places orders during each quarter equal to 30 percent of projected sales for the next quarter. Assume that the company pays immediately. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

This is done as follows:

                                                 Q1                Q2           Q3            Q4

Order (30% of Sales) ($)      258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

b. Calculate payments to suppliers assuming a 90-day payables period. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

A 90-day payables period implies that the payment has be made within the next 90 days or within one quarter or the same quarter. Therefore, we have:

                                                 Q1               Q2             Q3            Q4

Order (30% of Sales) ($)      258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

c. Calculate payments to suppliers assuming a 60-day payables period.

A 60-day payables period implies the payment for the Order in each of the quarters has to be made in the same quarter.

Therefore, we have:

                                                 Q1               Q2             Q3            Q4

Order (30% of Sales) ($)      258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Note:

It can be observed that the answer look the same for all the questions.

Arntson, Inc., manufactures and sells two products: Product R3 and Product N0. The annual production and sales of Product of R3
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

$671.92

Explanation:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

Product R3

Labor-related cost = 40736/7200*5400

Labor-related cost = $30,552

Production orders = 65970/1600*1000

Production orders = $41,231

Order size = 433175/7100*3100

Order size = $189,133

Total overhead = Labor-related cost + Production orders + Order size

Total overhead = $30,552 + $41,231 + $189,133

Total overhead = $260,916

Annual production and sales of Product of R3 = 900 u nit

Overhead cost per unit = Total overhead / Unit

Overhead cost per unit = $260,916 / 900

Overhead cost per unit = $289.92

Direct material = $226

Direct labor = (26*6) = $156

Unit product cost = Overhead cost per unit + Direct material + Direct labor

Unit product cost = $289.92 + $226 + $156

Unit product cost = $671.92.
