Peter, Paul, and Mary go to an all-you-can-eat buffet. The normal entrance fee is $20, but Peter gets in free because it is his

birthday and they have a special. Paul uses a coupon and only pays $10. Mary is the only one to pay the full $20. They are all equally hungry and have an equally large appetite. If they are all rational decision makers, the person who should eat the most is:

Answer:

mary

Explanation:

A rational consumer would consume up to the point that marginal benefit equal marginal cost

Mary paid $20. this means that she places a value of $20 on the meal.

Paul paid $10. this means that he places a value of $10 on the meal

The value Mary places is 20, so she places a higher value and she would consume the most

Peter enters free and thus there is no marginal cost attached to this decision. He should consume the least

Getty Company expects sales for the first three months of next year to be $200,000, $235,000, and $298,000, respectively. Getty
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Getty’s cash receipts for the months of February: $225,900

Getty’s cash receipts for the months of March: $281,620

Explanation:

Cash sales:

In January = 35% x $200,000 = $70,000

In February = 35% x $235,000 = $82,250

In March = 35% x $298,000 = $104,300

Credit Sales:

In January = 65% x $200,000 = $130,000

In February = 65% x $235,000 = $152,750

In March = 65% x $298,000 = $193,700

Getty’s cash receipts for the months of February = Cash sales of February + 40% x Credit sales of January + 60% x Credit sales of February = $82,250 + 40% x $130,000 + 60% x $152,750 = $225,900

Getty’s cash receipts for the months of March = Cash sales of March + 40% x Credit sales of February + 60% x Credit sales of March = $104,300 + 40% x $152,750 + 60% x $193,700 = $281,620

Kangaroo Autos is offering free credit on a new $10,000 car: You pay $1,000 down and then $300 a month for the next 30 months. T
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Kangaroo Auto offers the better deal

If the I go for Kangaroo Autos, then I will save $257.69 in today's term

Explanation:

Here we need to compare the present value of the two options;

Present value is the worth today of an amount or series of amount payable or receivable in the future period.

Where a series of equal amount is receivable or payable in the future it is called an annuity.

One of the payment options includes an annuity. Therefore, we need to work out the present value of the annuity. This is done using the following formula:

Present Value = A ×( 1 - (1+r)^(-n))/r

where A = equal cash flow, r- rate per period, n - no. of periods

A = 300, r- rate per month - 12%/12 = 1% , n= 30

PV = 300 ×(1- (1+0.01)^(-30))/0.01

    = 300 × 25.877

     =7,742.31

Now we can work out he cost of each option  and comapare them in today's Dollar:

Option 1 : Kangaroo Autos

Total cost of option 1 = deposit + PV of annuity

                                  =   1000 + 7,742.31

              cost              = 8,742.31

Option 2: Turtle Motors:

Price =  Car price - Discount

        =   $10,000 - $1000

     cost    =   $9,000

Kangaroo Auto offers a better  deal.

If  I go for Kangaroo Autos, then I will save $257.69 in today's term
