Calculate the present value of the after tax net returns to land in the 7th year if thereal pre-tax net returns to land today ar
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 70.55 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Number of year = 7

Pre-tax net returns (Fn) = $100

Growth rate = 4% = 0.04

Inflation = 3% = 0.03

Marginal tax rate = 30% = 0.3

Discount rate = 10% = 0.1

Computation:

Fn = Fo(1+g)ⁿ = 100(1.04)⁷

Fn = 131.6

Nominal net returns = 131.6(1.03)⁷

Nominal net returns = 161.85

After tax return = 161.85  (1 - 0.3)

After tax return = 113.30

After-tax, risk adjusted discount rate = 0.1(1-0.3) = 7%

PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 113.30 (1+0.07)⁻⁷

PV(after-tax net return in 7th year) = 70.55 (Approx)

Material and Labor Variances The following actual and standard cost data for direct material and direct labor relate to the prod
Damm [24]

Answer:

Materials:

price     800U

quantity 510 F

Labor:

rate          1,860 F

efficiency 1,740 U

Explanation:

DIRECT MATERIALS VARIANCES

(standard\:cost-actual\:cost) \times actual \: quantity= DM \: price \: variance

std cost           $5.10

actual cost  $5.30

quantity          4,000

(5.1 - 5.3) \times 4,000 = DM \: price \: variance

price variance  $(800.00)

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance

std quantity 4000.00

actual quantity 3900.00

std cost  $5.10

(4,000 - 3,900) \times 5.1 = DM \: quantity \: variance

quantity variance  $510.00

DIRECT LABOR VARIANCES

(standard\:rate-actual\:rate) \times actual \: hours = DL \: rate \: variance

std rate  $8.70

actual rate  $8.40

actual hours 6,200

(8.7 - 8.4) \times 6,200 = DL \: rate \: variance

rate variance  $1,860.00

(standard\:hours-actual\:hours) \times standard \: rate = DL \: efficiency \: variance

std  hours 6000.00

actual hours 6200.00

std rate  $8.70

(6,000 - 6,200) \times 8.70 = DL \: efficiency \: variance

efficiency variance  $(1,740.00)

Ostrovityanka [42]
To determine the increase in the amount of money in the economy brought about the $600 taken out of the piggy bank, we multiply $600 by the decimal equivalent of the percentage given. That is,
                                  ($600) x (0.02) = $12
Hence, your $600 will increase the amount of money in the economy by $12.

Explanation:

Oligopolistic market is the arrangement where few companies offer same product to the customers.
