Answer:

its present worth is nearest to 483,566

Option d) 483,566 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

gold mine is projected to produce $52,000 during its first year

produce $50,000 the second year

produce $48,000 the third year

the mine is expected to produce for 20yrs; i.e n = 20

annual interest rate = 4% = 0.04%

now let P represent the present worth

we determine the present worth ;

Present worth ⇒ Cashflow(Uniform series present worth) - (2000)(uniform gradient present worth)

⇒Cashflow(P | A,i%,n) - (2000)(P | G,i%,n)

= 52000[ ((1+i)ⁿ - 1) / (i(1+i)ⁿ) ] - (2000)[ {((1+i)ⁿ - 1) / (i²(1+i)ⁿ))} - (n/i(1 + i)ⁿ) ]

= 52000[ ((1+0.04)²⁰ - 1) / (0.04(1+0.04)²⁰) ] - (2000)[ {((1+0.04)20 - 1) / ((0.04)²(1+0.04)²⁰))} - (20/0.04(1 + 0.04)²⁰) ]

= 52000[ ((1.04)²⁰ - 1) / (0.04(1.04)²⁰) ] - (2000)[ {((1.04)²⁰ - 1) / ((0.04)²(1.04)²⁰))} - (20/0.04(1.04)²⁰) ]

= 52000[ ((2.191123 - 1) / (0.04(2.191123) ] - (2000)[ {((2.191123 - 1) / ((0.0016)(2.191123))} - (20/0.04(2.191123) ]

= 52000(1.191123/0.08764) - (2000){( 1.191123/0.003506) - (20/0.87645)}

= 52000(13.59033) - (2000)(339.7582 - 228.1935)

= 52000(13.59033) - (2000)(111.5647)

= 706695.6 - 223129.4

= 483,566.2 ≈ 483,566

Therefore its present worth is nearest to 483,566

Option d) 483,566 is the correct answer

Answer:

A=152

K= -Ln(0.5)/14

Step-by-step explanation:

You can obtain two equations with the given information:

T(14 minutes) = 114◦C

T(28 minutes)=152◦C

Therefore, you have to replace t=14, T=114 and t=28, T=152 in the given equation:

114=190-Ae^{-14k} (I) \\152=190-Ae^{-28k}(II)

Applying the following property of exponentials numbers in (II):

e^{a}.e^{b}=e^{a+b}

Therefore e^{-28k} can be written as e^{-14k}.e^{-14k}

152=190-Ae^{-14k}.e^{14k}

Replacing (I) in the previous equation:

152=190-76e^{-14k}

Solving for k:

Subtracting 190 both sides, dividing by -76:

0.5=e^{-14k}

Applying the base e logarithm both sides:

Ln(0.5)= -14k

Dividing by -14:

k= -Ln(0.5)/14

Replacing k in (I) and solving for A:

Ae^{-14(-Ln(0.5)/14)}=76\\Ae^{Ln(0.5)} =76\\A(0.5)=76

Dividing by 0.5

A=152

The asset turnover of Ryan Company is 7.2. The total assets of Ryan are $88,000. Ryan's net sales were:
nikitadnepr [17]
Let A be asset turnover, R revenue, and S assets. You already know the equation for asset turnover:
A = R/S

Since we need to calculate revenue, we need to modify the equation a bit:
R = A*S
R = 7.2*88000
R = 633,600

This means that Ryan's net sales (revenue) were $633,600.
