The gaming commission is introducing a new lottery game called Infinite Progresso. The winner of the Infinite Progresso jackpot

will receive $1,000 at the end of January, $1,900 at the end of February, $2,800 at the end of March, and so on up to $10,900 at the end of December. At the beginning of the next year, the sequence repeats starting at $1,000 in January and ending at $10,900 in December. This annual sequence of payments repeats indefinitely. If the gaming commission expects to sell a minimum of 800,000 tickets, what is the minimum price they can charge for the tickets to break even, assuming the commission earns 12.00 %/year/month on its investments and there is exactly one winning ticket

Answer:

$0.73

Explanation:

Interest = 12%  = 1% per month

The sequence of monthly payment for indefinite years

$1000, $1900, $28000......... $10900

This means that the monthly payment increases by $900

The equivalent monthly payment can be calculated as

= 1000 + 900 ( A/G , 1% , 12 )

= 1000 + 900 * 5.3814

= 1000 + 4843.26

= $5843.26

present worth of withdrawal = 5843.26 / 1% = $584326

<u>The minimum price that the company will have to sell its ticket to breakeven </u>

= 584326 / 800000

= $0.73

Answer:

The amount to be repot is $1,450,000

Explanation:

in this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of selling expenses to be recorded in the company’s consolidated income statement for that year.

To answer this question, we employ a mathematical approach;

Mathematically;

Selling expenses = Total expenses - Contra Expenses

from the question, we identify that total expenses is (1,100,000 + 400,000) = $1,500,000

Contra expenses = $50,000

The selling expenses is thus; 1,500,000 - 50,000 = $1,450,000

Explain how the basic economic problems are solved under capitalism?​
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Under capitalistic economy, allocation of various resources takes place with the help of market mechanism. Price of various goods and services including the price of factors of production are determined with help of the forces of demand and supply. Free price mechanism helps producers to decide what to produce.

The goods which are more in demand and on which consumers can afford to spend more, are produced in larger quantity than those goods or services which have lower demand. The price of various factors of production including technology helps to decide production techniques or methods of production. Rational producer intends to use those factors or techniques which has relatively lower price in the market.

Factor earnings received by the employers of factors of production decides spending capacity of the people. This helps producers to identify the consumers for whom goods could be produced in larger or smaller quantities. Price mechanism works well only if competition exists and natural flow of demand and supply of goods is not disturbed artificially.
