Answer:

To: President

From: General Manager Finance

Subject : Pricing strategy for existing products

Date : 20th June 2021

As you are aware about the declining sales of our various products. The main reason identified by our sales and marketing analysts for the declining sales is over pricing of various products. There have been increase competition in the market and new entrants have adopted strategy of economies of scale which enable them to sell the product at low price and gain market share. There we need to cut our costs and then reduce our profit margin to boost sales of our products. We can be profitable from volume sales strategy.

If you need to discuss further on this matter, we can arrange a meeting with head of different department to discuss the business strategy in more detail.

2. A couple would like to take a cruise to Alaska, 15 months from now. They have $1500 in a savings account. The savings account
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

a.- $ 3,529.82  

b.-  $ 3,512.11

c.-  $   132,77

Explanation:

In each case, we must calculate the value of their current savings and the additional investment.

The saving are the same for each scenario so let's calculate that first:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 1,500.00

time 15 years

rate 0.01000

1500 \: (1+ 0.01)^{15} = Amount

Amount 1,741.45

Then we add the funds generated from the investment:

a.- 110 annuity due for 15 month:

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{-time} -1}{rate}(1+r) = FV\\

C  $ 110

time 15 months

rate 0.01

110 \times \frac{(1+0.01)^{15} -1 }{0.01} = FV\\

FV $1,788.3651

We add the savings and get a total of:  $ 3,529.82  

b.- 110 ordinary annuity

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = FV\\

C  $ 110

time 15 months

rate 0.01

110 \times \frac{(1+0.01)^{15} -1}{0.01} = FV\\

FV $1,770.6585

Plus, original savings of 1,741.45 =  3,512.11  

c.-

If they need 3,900 then the fund must cover the difference between these and the savings future value:

3,900 - 1,741.45 = 2,158.55

Now we calculate the PMT, considering the payment are at the beginning:

FV \div \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1 }{rate}(1+r) = C\\

FV  $ 2,158.55

time  15

rate           0.01

2158.55 \div \frac{(1+0.01)^{15} -1}{0.01} (1+0.01) = C\\

C  $ 132.770

Rudik [331]

Answer:

$10,570.80

Explanation:

The computation of the withheld during the year is shown below:

= Social security tax + medicare tax

where,

Social security tax is

= $128,400 × 6.2%

= $7,960.80

And, the medicare tax is

= $180,000 × 1.45%

= $2,610

So, the total withheld during the year is

= $7,960.80 + $2,610

= $10,570.80

We simply added the social security and medicare taxes so that the withheld could come

Colorado economy: the annual business report (1993-1994) indicates that for the past decade the cattle ranching industry in colo
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The colorado ranching is not expanding

Explanation:

The null hypothesis, H₀ : μ = 2.7 billion

Alternative hypothesis, Ha : μ > 2.7 billion

\bar{X} = 2.85 billion

\sigma = 0.55 billion

n = 30

The observed test statistic,

t_{o} = \frac{\bar{x}- \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }

t_{o} = \frac{2.85- 2.7}{\frac{0.55}{\sqrt{30} } }\\t_{o} = 1.494

Degree of freedom = n-1 = 30 -1 = 29

Significance level = 0.05

For the critical value, we check the t - table at 0.05 significance level

t_{crit} = t_{\alpha, df} =  t_{0.05, 29} \\t_{crit} = 1.699

t_{0} = 1.494\\t_{crit} = 1.699

Sincet_{0}, we will accept H₀

That is the mean total cash receipt is 2.7 billion and the colorado ranching is not expanding

As for the provided information we have,

Sales data, for each month

July              $120,000

August         $211,000
