Answer:

6.06%

Explanation:

The computation of the rate of return is shown below:

Given that

NPER = 20 years

PV = ($280,000 - $80,000) = $200,000

PMT = $0

FV = $75,000 × PVIFA factor at 10% for 21 years

= $75,000 × 8.6487

= $648,652.50

The following formula should be applied

= RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)

The present value comes in negative

After applying the above formula, the rate of return is 6.06%

When Bill's Diner moves from the production combination of 35 burgers and 25 hotdogs to the combination of 25 burgers and 65 hot
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

<h2>In the context of Consumer Theory or Indifference Curve involving two goods,the opportunity of any one good is computed by how much of the other good is foregone or sacrificed to purchase one more unit of that particular good.</h2>

Explanation:

  • In this instance,when Bill's diner consumes 35 burgers and 25 hotdogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dog=\frac{35}{25} =\frac{7}{5}=1.4.Therefore,initially Bill diner's opportunity cost of an additional hot dog is 1.4 units of burger.
  • Now,when Bill's diner chooses to consume a combination of 25 burgers and 65 hot dogs,its opportunity cost of additional hot dogs=\frac{25}{65} =\frac{5}{13} =0.385 approximately.Hence,Bill's diner is willing to sacrifice approximately 0.385 units of burger to consume an additional unit of hot dog.
  • Now,due to the change in consumption combination,the change in opportunity cost of additional hot dog=(1.4-0.385)=1.015 units of burger.Notice,that here the opportunity cost of additional hot dog decreased from 1.4 units of burger to 0.385 units of burger as Bill's diner changed the consumption combination of both burgers and hot dogs.

A company enforces its ethical codes and policies by rewarding ethical behavior and punishing misconduct. Each month, the most e
Olenka [21]

Answer:

The rewards and punishment serve the purpose of motivating the employees.

Explanation: First of all, we must establish that companies should have set guidelines or principles on which they operate, especially when it comes to ethics and acceptable workplace behavior.

Secondly, we must acknowledge the fact that there is always a reward or consequence for our actions. Especially in the workplace where employees are constantly monitored.

Now, based on the Theory X of management that was developed by Douglas McGregor, which basically states that employees are unmotivated and unwilling to work, and as a result of this, they need to be constantly prompted, rewarded or punished to make sure that they complete their tasks.

So to answer the question, the rewards and punishments serve the purpose of motivating the employees to be of good conduct in the workplace, because if this is not done, bad behavior might spread throughout the company and this will cause further problems.

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Total cost= $877,500

Explanation:

<u> First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:</u>

Unitary variable cost= 135,000 / 30,000= $4.5

Unitary variable cost= 180,000 / 40,000= $4.5

Unitary variable cost= 225,000 / 50,000= $4.5

<u>Now, the total cost for 35,000 hours:</u>

Total cost= Unitary variable cost*total number of hours + fixed costs

Total cost= 4.5*35,000 + 720,000

Total cost= $877,500
