Answer:

5.5%

Explanation:

This is an Annuity Due question. In an annuity due, recurring payments occur at the beginning of the yearIt is asking for the RATE. Using a financial calculator(on BEG mode), input the following;

Duration; N = 25

Recurring payment; PMT = 23.6

Present value ; PV = -334

One-time future cashflow; FV = 0

Then compute the interest rate; CPT I/Y = 5.499%

Therefore, the lottery commission is using about 5.5% interest rate.

Alpaca Corporation had revenues of $300,000 in its first year of operations. The company has not collected on $20,000 of its sal
madam [21]

Answer: Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Revenues = $300,000

Merchandise it purchased = $75,000

Salaries paid = $14,000

Owners invested = $23,000

Borrowed on a five-year note = $23,000

Interest paid = $3,000

Paid for a two-year insurance policy = $6,800

Income tax rate = 9%

Gross Margin = Revenues - Cost of Goods Sold

                       = $300,000 - $75,000

                       = $225,000

Profit before tax = Gross Margin - Salaries - Insurance payment - Interest

                          = $225,000 - 14,000 - 3,400 - 3,000

                          = $204,600

Net Income = Profit before tax - Tax at 9%

                    = $204,600 - 18,414

                    = $186,186

Last year mike bought 100 shares of dallas corporation common stock for $53 per share. during the year he received dividends of
Pepsi [2]
Mike brought 100 shares costing $53 each.
Total costs of shares= 100*53
=$5300

He got dividends of $1.45 per share. A dividend is money that is earnt back from a share.
Total dividend amount = 1.45*100
=$145

I'm assuming that Mike sold his shares at the end of the year. He sells for $60 each.
Total sales amount=60*100
=$6000

The rate of return in this instance can be defined as the amount of money made back from a share.

Rate of return= total earnings/ costs

Total costs= $5300
Total earnings=$6145

6145/5300=1.1594
=15.9%

Hope this helps! :)

allsm [11]

A CBA , used to justify the project is typically prepared in the analysis phase of the secsdlc, must be reviewed and verified prior to the development of the project plan.

A project plan is a collection of official documents outlining the project's execution and control phases. In addition to addressing scope, cost, and schedule baselines, the plan takes risk management, resource management, and communications into account.

A project plan is a document that outlines each step needed to complete a project from A to B. It is sometimes portrayed as a Gantt chart. It acts as a roadmap by outlining the project phases, important project tasks, their start and end dates, interdependencies, and project milestones.

An establishment has three departments with variable costs as a percentage of sales revenue of 30 percent, 40 percent, and 50 pe
zalisa [80]

Answer:

60 percent

Explanation:

Contribution margin refers to the revenue a firm derives after deducting the variable cost it has incurred.

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable costs

Contribution margin or contribution to sales ratio represents the percentage of contribution a firm earns from the sale of it's output.

It is represented mathematically as,

= \frac{Contribution\ margin}{Sales}

Also, contribution margin ratio = 100 - variable cost ratio percentage.

Hence, contribution margin for three departments would be:

A = 100 - 30% = 70%

B = 100 - 40% = 60%

C = 100- 50% = 50%

This represents if sales revenue is 100, contribution margin earned is 70, 60 and 50 under three cases.

Since sales revenue in all three departments is the same, let us assume the sales revenue of a department as y.

\frac{0.70y\ +\ 0.60y\ +\ 0.50y}{3y}    

Thus, weighted average contribution margin would be, 60 percent
