Answer:

Zero,( no raise at all)

Explanation:

The total labor cost for the two employees is

=$36,000 + $24,000

=$60,000

If only 5% of increases in payroll is approved, the actual increase

=5/100 x $60,000

=0.05 x $60,000

=$3,000

If the second employee is to get a raise of $3,000 per year, then the first employee will not get any raise.

You are considering investing in a GM bond with 7 years to maturity. The face value of the bond is $1,000. The coupon rate is 6%
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Price of bond is = $ 1057

Explanation:

As we know that;

Price of bond = C * [1-(1+r)∧-n] / r  +   F / (1+r)∧n

where C = periodic coupon payment = 1000 * 6%= 60

         F = Face value of bond = 1000

        r = yield to maturity = 5% = 0.05

        n = number of periods till maturity = 7 years

         Putting values;

              = 60 * [ 1- (1+ 0.05)∧-7 ]/ 0.05  +  1000 / (1+0.05)∧7

              = 60 * (0.2893 / 0.05) +   710

             =  60 * 5.786 +  710

              =  347.16 +710

              =  1057

Suppose that​ Roots' marginal cost of a jacket is a constant ​$100.00 and the total fixed cost at one of its stores is ​$1 comma
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

What is this​ store's average total cost of a jacket sold before the advertising begins and after the advertising begins.

before advertising costs increase:

marginal cost is constant, so we can state that the total variable costs are $100 per jacket

total fixed costs = $1,000 per day / 15 jackets = $66.67 per jacket

average total cost per jacket before increasing advertising expense = $100 + $66.67 =) $166.67

after advertising costs increase:

total variable costs are $100 per jacket

total fixed costs = $2,000 per day / 55 jackets = $36.36 per jacket

average total cost per jacket after increasing advertising expense = $100 + $36.36 =) $136.36

Can you say what happens to the price of a Roots​ jacket, Roots'​ markup, and​ Roots' economy?

Roots is experiencing economies of scale since average total cost per jacket decreased as the total number of jackets sold increased. But in order to sell that new amount of jackets, their price probably decreased. If the price hadn't changed, then the profit maximizing number of jackets sold per day would be close to 30, but it clearly isn't. That means that the company's markup decreased, but the company is now better off since it is maximizing its profits even though its expenses increased and the markup decreased.
