Last year, Company X paid out a total of $1,050,000 in salaries to its 21 employees. If no employee earned a salary that is more

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$42,000

Explanation:

Let L be the lowest possible salary;

the maximum salary would be (L x 20%) + L = 1.2L

If we want to determine the minimum value for L, we need to assume that everyone else earns the maximum salary: 20 employees earn 1.2L each

L + 20(1.2L) = 1050000

L + 24L = 1050000

25L = 1050000

L = 42000

Masja [62]

Answer:

Monthly savings= $3,584.42

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Ross has decided that he wants to build enough retirement wealth that, if invested at 6 percent per year, will provide him with $4,600 of monthly income for 30 years. To date, he has saved nothing, but he still has 20 years until he retires.

First, we need to find the final value.

FV= (4,600*12)*30= $1,656,000

Now, we can calculate the monthly deposit:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

i= 0.06/12= 0.005

n= 20*12= 240

A= (1,656,000*0.005)/[(1.005^240)-1]= 8,280/ 2.31= $3,584.42

A liquid company produces hand sanitizer which has demand of 300,000 units per year.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

EOQ = = 15,491.93 units

Optimal order interval 18.8 days (19.36 orders in year)

Total cost = $150,774.60

Explanation:

The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) is the order size that minimizes the balance of ordering cost and holding cost. At the EOQ, the carrying cost is equal to the holding cost.

It is computed using he formulae below

EOQ = √ (2× Co× D)/Ch

Co- ordering cost per order- 20,

Ch -Holding cost per unit per annum- 10%× $0.5= 0.05

Annual demand: D- 300,000

EOQ = √(2× 20 * 2,580)/(10%× 0.5)

= 15,491.93 units

Assuming 365 days, the optimal order interval in dates

Number of orders per year

= annual demand/EOQ

= 300,000/ 15,491.93

= 19.36 times

in days:

= EOQ/300,000 × 365 days

= (15,491.93/ 300,000) × 365 days

= 18.8 days

Total annual cost =

Total cost Purchase cost + Carrying cost + ordering cost 

$

Purchase cost = $0.5 × 300,000 = 150,000

Carrying cost = (15,491.93/2) * 10%*0.5 = 387.29

Ordering cost = (300,000/15,491.93 ) × 20 = 387.29

Total cost 150,774.60

Which of the following is a positive economic statement? Group of answer choices The standard of living in the United States sho

Vesna [10]

The U.S. government should not have bailed out U.S. auto manufacturers.

Explanation:

After the inflation period during the 1930, which continued almost for the next 30 years, America increased its standard of living - payment of higher taxes. With an income that was to be paid to government and to be used for their living, Americans had a tough time for almost 10 years to come out of the inflation they faced. Recession was also a part of this period during Hoover's presidency.
Later, when Roosevelt was elected, his new ideals changed the phase of America which did not let the government stick to basic infrastructure of America. In this period, people of America unanimously agreed for the bailout of auto manufacturers with which, they earned revenue for other sector's development.
In 2009, when the contract with General Motors was disintegrated, which was created during the time of World War II, the government of America did not want to take any risk/was not ready to face an economic hit. This eventually led for a bail out.
With this step, in that period of time, it is an economically positive statement.
