You need to earn 6% annul real rate of return and, in addition, you need to keep up with the annual inflation rate. Exactly 4 ye

ars ago, the expected inflation rate was 2% per year. At that time, you decided to invest in a 7-year annuity with $20,000 deposited at the end of each year. Now, right after you made the 4th deposit, the expected annual inflation rate for the next 3 years is 3% per year. To keep your investment goal of 6% real annual return and keeping up with the new inflation rate, how much more each year for the last 3 years you will need to deposit in addition to the $20,000 per year to reach that goal?

Answer:

"4,000" is the appropriate option.

Explanation:

Given:

Real interest rate,

= 6%

Inflation rate,

= 2%

Annual deposit,

= $20,000

Now,

The nominal interest rate will be:

= Real \ interest \ rate+Inflation \ rate

= 6+2

= 8 (%)

As per the annual deposit, I was making,

= 20000\times 0.6

= 1200 \ every \ year

Inflation rate rise 3% i.e.,

= 2+3

= 5 (%)

Just to earn 1200, I have to:

= \frac{1200}{0.05}

= 24,000

Thus the above is the appropriate answer.

The cost of goods for Mandy Manufacturing Company flow through an assembly and a finishing department before being transferred t
laila [671]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning work in process = $4,000

Ending work in process in finishing department = $6,000

Cost transferred = $47,000

Direct material = $15,000

Direct labor  = $46,000

Overhead  = $22,000

Cost incurred in finishing department:

= Beginning work in process + Cost transferred + Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead

= $4,000 + $47,000 + $15,000 + $46,000 + $22,000

= $134,000

Cost of goods transferred to the Finished Goods Inventory account:

= Cost incurred in finishing - Ending work in process

= $134,000 - $6,000

= $128,000
