Answer: The answer is 6.68%

Explanation:

Using the z value formula

Z = x - mean / standard deviation

x = $47,500

Mean = $40,000

Standard deviation = $5,000

= 47,500 - 40,000 / 5,000

= 7,500 / 5,000

= 1.5

Then we look for z value of 1.5 to the left of normal distribution table because the probability is at least

The z value is 0.0668

0.0668 × 100

= 6.68%

Therefore the probability that an individual with an MBA degree will get a starting salary of at least $47,500 is 6.68%

Eric wants to attend a public four-year university. He estimates that the average cost of one year at this university is $19,500
pishuonlain [190]
In this problem he need 19.500 but only earns 325 a month. From this we take what is needed (19500) and divide it by what is earned (325). This will give you 60. So therefore it will take him 60 months to earn enough for one year at university.

Keenan Industries has a bond outstanding with 15 years to maturity, an 8.25% nominal coupon, semiannual payments, and a $1,000 p
ycow [4]

Answer:

6.52%

Explanation:

For computing the nominal yield to call, first we have to find out the present value by applying the present value formula which is shown in the attachment below:

Future value = $1,000

Rate of interest = 6.50% ÷ 2 = 3.25%

NPER = 15 years  × 2 = 30 years

PMT = $1,000 × 8.25% ÷ 2  = $41.25

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

So, after solving this, the present value is $1,166.09

Now to determine the yield to call we use the RATE formula that is shown in the attachment below:

Present value = $1,166.09

Future value or Face value = $1,120

PMT = $1,000 × 8.25% ÷ 2  = $41.25

NPER = 6 years × 2 = 12 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this, the bond nominal yield to call is

= 3.26% × 2 years

= 6.52%

Answer:

Production Oriented or Mass Production Era.

Explanation:

This marketing era took place around the mid 1800s and lasted until the early 1920s. It was basically a result of the industrial revolution where mass production started and manufacturing costs started to decrease. Most businesses would produce only one or very few types of products, and most business people thought that if they were to manufacture something, someone would buy it. Since this type of mass production was something totally new, people had lots of products available and relatively cheap for the first time, and indeed most of the production was sold that way.

prisoha [69]

Answer:

$1,950 more than expected

Explanation:

In this question ,we have to compare the revenues based on expected and the actual

So, the expected revenues would be

= Number of customers × per hour rate × expected time spent

= 30 customers × $26 × 8 hours

= $6,240

And, the actual revenues would be

= Number of increased customers × per hour rate × average time spent

= 42 customers × $26 × 7.5 hours

= $8,190

The revenue is increased by

= $8,190 - $6,240

= $1,950 more than expected

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Days sales in payable = 68.74 days(Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Cost of goods sold = $44,621

Accounts payable = $8,403

Days sales in payable = ?

Computation of Days sales in payable :

Days\ sales\ in\ payables=(Accounts\ payable\/cost\ of\ goods\ sold)\times365\ days

Days sales in payable = ($8,403 / $44,621) × 365 days

Days sales in payable = 0.188319401 × 365 days  

Days sales in payable = 68.7365814

Days sales in payable = 68.74 days(Approx)
