Answer:

We will consider positive interest rate which is i=0.21 or i=21%

Explanation:

The formula for Future value is:

$FV=PV(1+i)^n$

The present value will become:

$PV=FV(1+i)^{-n}$

where:

n is the number of years

Since the condition is same present value,so the given data form the equation:

$6000+5940(1+i)^{-1}=12000(1+i)^{-1/2}$

Divide above equation by $(1+i)^{-1}$

$6000(1+i)+5940=12000(1+i)^{1/2}$

Let $z=(1+i)^{1/2}\\$ . Above equation will become:

$6000z^2+5940=12000z$

Rearranging above equation:

$5940-12000z+6000z^2=0$

Solving the quadratic equation:

z=1.1, z=0.9

Let $z=(1+i)^{1/2}\\$ will become:

$z=(1+i)^{1/2}\\\\z^2=1+i$

$i=z^2-1$

For z=1.1

$i=(1.1)^2-1\\i=0.21$

For z=0.9

$i=(0.9)^2-1\\i=-0.19$

we will consider positive interest rate which is i=0.21 or i=21%

Coachlight Inc. has a periodic inventory system. The company purchased 205 units of inventory at $9.50 per unit and 310 units at

lukranit [14]

Answer:

Weighted average cost per unit = $10.10

Explanation:

We know,

Under weighted average unit cost, the cost for purchased inventory = Total inventory costs ÷ total inventory in units

Given,

Total inventory in units = 205 + 310 = 515 units

Total inventory costs = (205 units × $9.50) + (310 units × $10.50)

= $1,947.50 + $3,255 = $5,202.50

Therefore,

Weighted average cost per unit = $5,202.50 ÷ 515 units

Weighted average cost per unit = $10.10

Therefore, the company will use this cost per unit to determine cost of goods sold and ending inventory.

Amy convenes a meeting to rethink the organizational structure to avoid being beat to the market by a competitor again. Based on

Natalija [7]

Amy should reduce hierarchy if she wants to avoid being beaten by competitors.

A reduction of hierarchy will realign the company to achieve its goals faster than operating with a formalized hierarchy. This restructuring or delayering is known as empowerment.

The advantages that Amy will achieve by delayering or reducing hierarchy include:

Simplifying the organization's management structures
Reducing its bureaucracy
Cutting its communication paths
Speeding up decision-making
Pushing responsibility down to lower organizational levels (through empowerment).

Thus, Amy should rethink the organizational structure by reducing the hierarchy, making the decision-making process accessible.

An insurance company has offered your friend the choice of $45,000 per year for 15 years, with the first payment being made toda

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

$427,011.92

Explanation:

We use the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attached spreadsheet

Given that,

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 7.5%

NPER = 15 years

PMT = $45,000

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

And, in type we write the 1 instead of 0

So, after solving this, the present value is $427,011.92
