7. Which type of business document do you think you are most likely to use often in your company? Why?

1 answer:

7 0

Company bylaws for corporations. Most states require corporations to keep a written record of bylaws, although you don’t need to file the document with a state office. Bylaws define how the company will govern itself. Even if your company is incorporated in the handful of states that don’t require bylaws, they are still a good idea as they spell out your business’ structure, individual roles, and governance issues. For example, bylaws can help settle a dispute on the length of a director’s term or define if you need a simple majority to approve a decision.

The owner of an orange grove must decide when to pick one variety of oranges. She can sell them for $27 a bushel if she sells th

uysha [10]

Answer:

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return

Explanation:

We assume that the return of the owner is y ($)

Assume that the number of weeks the oranges should be picked to have maximum return is x (weeks). (x≥0)

If collect now, the price for each bushel is $27

As the price per bushel decrease by $1.50 per bushel each week

=> After x weeks, the price of a bushel decrease: 1.5x ($)

=> The price of 1 bushel after x weeks is: 27 - 1.5x ($)

If collect now, each tree can yield 7 bushels

As the yield increases by half a bushel per week for the next 5 weeks

=> After x weeks with x ≤ 5, each trees would yields: 7 + 0.5x (bushels)

The return = The price of each bushes × The quantity of bushels

=> $y = (27-1.5x)(7+0.5x)$

⇔ $y= 27 (7 +0.5x) - 1.5x(7+0.5x) = 189 + 13.5x - 10.5x - 0.75x^{2}$

⇔ $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

We have: if the equation has the form of $y =ax^{2} +bx +c$ with a≠0, its maximum value is: $max y = c - \frac{b^{2} }{4a}$

In the equation $y = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$ , we have: a = -0.75; b = 3; c = 189

=> $max y = c -\frac{b^{2} }{4a} = 189 - \frac{3^{2} }{4.(-0.75)} = 189 - \frac{9}{-3} = 189 - (-3) = 189+3 = 192$

To look for the number of weeks, we should find x (0≤x≤5) with which y = 192

$192 = -0.75x^{2} +3x +189$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 3x + 189 - 192 = 0$

⇔ $-0.75 x^{2} + 3x - 3 =0$

⇔ $-0.75x^{2} + 4*0.75x - 0.75*4 =0$

⇔ $x^{2} -4x + 4 = 0$

⇔ $(x-2)^{2} = 0$

⇔ x = 2

The oranges should be picked in 2 weeks for maximum return

West Corp. issued 25-year bonds two years ago at a coupon rate of 5.3 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments. If these bond

slava [35]

Answer:

4.93%

Explanation:

We use the Rate formula shown in the spreadsheet for this question

The time period is represented in the NPER.

Provided that,

Present value = $1,000 × 105% = $1,050

Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000

PMT = 1,000 × 5.3% ÷ 2 = $26.5

NPER = 25 years - 2 years = 23 years × 2 = 46 years

The formula is shown below:

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the yield to maturity is 4.93%

Kosher Pickle Company acquires all the outstanding stock of Midwest Produce for $19 million. The fair value of Midwest's assets

shutvik [7]

Answer:

$7.2 million

Explanation:

For computing the amount paid for the goodwill, first we have to calculate the fair value of the net asset which is shown below:

The fair value of net asset = Fair value of Midwest's assets - fair value of Midwest's liabilities

= $14.3 million - $2.5 million

= $11.8 million

And, the acquisition price of the outstanding stock is $19 million

So, the goodwill would be

= $19 million - $11.8 million

= $7.2 million
