Although appealing to more refined tastes, art as a collectible has not always performed so profitably. Assume that in 2015, an

auction house sold a statute at auction for a price of $10,710,500. Unfortunately for the previous owner, he had purchased it in 2010 at a price of $12,738,500. What was his annual rate of return on this sculpture

Answer:

-3.41%

Explanation:

The computation of the annual rate of return is shown below;

We use the formula:

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years  

$10,710,500 = $12,738,500 × (1 + rate of interest)^5

($10,710,500 ÷ $12,738,500)^(1 ÷ 5) = (1 + rate of interest)

(1 + rate of interest) = 0.965913622

r = (0.965913622 - 1) × 100

= -3.41%

The scope of practice regulations for <u>Nurse Practitioners (NP)</u> should be reconsidered.

Across the states, there is substantial variation in the scope of practice permitted to NP’s. Some states allow NP’s to provide care independently without the need for physician collaboration or supervision, while other states do not allow NP’s to do so. Thus there is a great need to align the regulations set for NP’s.

How could biotechnology affect your privacy?
svetlana [45]
<span>How could biotechnology affect your privacy? Biotechnology can be used to perform tests that weren't necessary. If these tests are performed health insurance companies may find issues that weren't presented at the time of insuring them and decide not to insure. Biotechnology is the growing of biological processes for different purposes to manipulate microorganisms int the production of antibiotics and hormones. These technology's are growing and giving more focus on what biotech can do for our country and those suffering from illness and hormone issues.  </span>

A mining company owns two mines, each of which produces three grades (high, medium, and low) of ore. The company has a contract
sashaice [31]

Answer:

They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.

Explanation:

The formulation of the linear programming is:

Objective function:

C=200M_1+160M_2

Restrictions:

- High-grade ore: 6M_1+2M_2\geq12

- Medium-grade ore: 2M_1+2M_2\geq8

- Low-grade ore: 4M_1+12M_2\geq24

- No negative hours: M_1,M_2\geq0

We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.

In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.

In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.

Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.

(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).

The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.

The cost function graph is attached.

Burton Corp. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 29 percent for the next three years, with the growt
maw [93]

Answer:

The Current share price is $94.79

Explanation:

Dividend Growth Model determines the share price of a company which offers perpetual dividend with stable growth. It is the expected dividend of a share divided by the net return rate of growth rate .

According to given data

Last dividend = D0 = $3.40

Rate of return = 15%

Growth rates:

For 3 years = 29% per year

After 3 years = 7.3% in perpetuity

Dividend after 3 years = D3 = 3.40 x ( 1 + 0.29 )^3 = $7.30

We can calculate the price of share using following formula:

Price of share = D3 / Rate of return - Growth rate

Price of share = $7.30 / 15% - 7.3% = $7.30 / 7.70% = $94.79
