Answer:

The answer is A. $ 6

Explanation:

If the beet juice is sold as is:

Selling price: $52

Costs: $56 + $18 = $74

Loss: $(22)

If beet juice is processed into sugar and sold:

Selling price: $78

Costs: $56+ $18+ 32= $106

Loss:($28)

Therefore there is an additional $6 loss.

False. Not every member of the board of directors is liable personally for the lawsuit. The business owner is the one who is held responsible and liable personally for the lawsuit.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

  • <u><em>Option B. $1,025 a month for 10 years.</em></u>

Explanation:

Calculate the present value of each option:

     \text{Monthly rate: } 6.8\%/12 = 0.068/12 = 0.005\overline 6

Formula:

        PV=C\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{r}-\dfrac{1}{r(1+r)^t}\bigg]

Where:

  • PV is the present value of the constant monthly payments
  • r is the monthly rate
  • t is the number of moths

<u>1. Option A will provide $1,500 a month for 6 years. </u>

         PV=$\ 1,500\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(6\times12)}}\bigg]

         PV=\$ 88,479.23

<u>2. Option B will pay $1,025 a month for 10 years. </u>

         PV=$\ 1,025\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(10\times12)}}\bigg]

         PV=\$ 89,068.22

<u>3. Option C offers $85,000 as a lump sum payment today. </u>

<u></u>

  • PV = $85,000
<h2 /><h2> Conclusion:</h2>

The present value of the<em> option B, $1,025 a month for 10 years</em>, has a the greatest present value, thus since he is only concerned with the <em>financial aspects of the offier</em>, this is the one he should select.
