Answer:
a. 1.51 containers
b. Fewer
Explanation:
The computations are shown below:
a. The number of containers would be
= Annual demand × time × (1 + inefficiency factor) ÷ holding pieces
= 70 × 0.75 × (1 + 0.15) ÷ 40
= 1.51 containers
The time is converted from minutes to hour i.e 45 minutes ÷ 60 minutes = 0.75
b. If the system improves, the fewer containers are required i.e 2 containers approximate because inefficiency factor got decreased
This problem is solved by using the compound interest formula:
A=P(1+(I/period))^(number of periods)
Where A = amount accumulated and P = amount loaned and I = Interest
A = ? P = $2, 000, I = 0.115, Period = 2 (semi annually) Number of period = 2
*7 (I. e paid twice over a 7 yrs span)
So we have
A = 2000 ( 1 + 0.115/2)^(14)
A = 2000 ( 1 + 0.0575)^(14)
A = 2000 (1.0575)^(14)
A = 2000 (2.1873851765154) = 4374.77035
So we have 4374.80 to the nearest cent.
Answer:
Intrinsic value: $ 45.19290274
The stock is undervalued as is selling for less.
Explanation:
We use the gordon model to solve for the intrinsic value of the share.

we must solve for the grow rate like it was an interest rate:
<u>grow rate: </u>
![2.00 \times (1+g)^{10} = 3.16\\\sqrt[10]{\frac{3.16}{2.00}} -1 = g](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2.00%20%5Ctimes%20%281%2Bg%29%5E%7B10%7D%20%3D%203.16%5C%5C%5Csqrt%5B10%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B3.16%7D%7B2.00%7D%7D%20-1%20%3D%20g)
g = 0.046804808
<u>dividends one year from now:</u>
3.16 x (1 + 0.046804808) = 3.307903193
Now we calculate the instrinsic value:

Value: $ 45.19290274
The stock is undervalued as is selling for less.
Answer:
D. The breakeven point decreases.
Explanation:
Breakeven point of a business is defined as the point where it's total cost and total revenues are equal, at this point there is no gain or loss. Hen revenue is above this point profit is made, and when revenue is below this point there is loss.
The formula for break-even is
Breakeven point= Total fixed cost/(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)
Since sales price and variable cost is constant, let's say
(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)= constant (k)
So when we cross-multiply in the formula
Breakeven* k= Total fixed cost
It shows that Breakeven point is directly proportional to Total fixed cost.
So a reduction in Total fixed cost will result in a reduction in Breakeven point.
