Answer:

$55,900

Explanation:

Opening inventory - $6200

Closing inventory - $7500

Expected sales - $78000

Mark up = 30% of sales

Cost of sales =70/100*78000

$54600

Purchase = (closing inventory + cost of sales )- opening inventory

$(7500+54600)-6200

$62100-$6200 =$55900.

Answer:

$53,300

Explanation:

The formula for Gross Profit is,

Sales - Cost of Goods Sold(COGS) = Gross Profit (GP)

Here we know that Gross profit is 30% of Sales, hence, Gross profit is $23,400. Therefore we now know that COGS will be $54,600.

Now to calculate purchases,

Opening Inv + Purchases - Closing Inv = COGS

7500 + X - 6200 = 54600

Hence Purchases will be = $53,300.

Hope this helps.

Thankyou.

The publisher of an economics textbook finds that, when the book's price is lowered from $70 to $60, sales rise from 10,000 to 1
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Price elasticity of demand = 2.6

Explanation:

Given:

Old price (P0) = $70

New price (P1) = $60

Old sales (Q0) = 10,000 units

New sales (Q1) = 15,000 units

Computation of Price elasticity of demand(e):

Midpoint method

e=\frac{\frac{Q1-Q0}{\frac{Q1+Q0}{2} } }{\frac{P1-P0}{\frac{P1+P0}{2} } }

By putting the value:

e=\frac{\frac{10,000-15,000}{\frac{10,000+15,000}{2} } }{\frac{60-70}{\frac{60+70}{2} } }\\e=\frac{\frac{-5,000}{\frac{25,000}{2} } }{\frac{-10}{\frac{130}{2} } }\\

e=\frac{\frac{-5,000}{12,500} }{\frac{-10}{65} }

e =  2.6

Huai takes out a $3,600 student loan at 6.6% to help him with 2 years of community college. After finishing the 2 years, he tran
Alja [10]

Answer:

a. The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.

Explanation:

a. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 1.

To determine the amount of periodic payments, the present value of annuity formula should be used:

PV=P(\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n} }{r} )

Where:

PV= present value

p=periodic payment

i=rate of interest

n=number of periods

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 3,600 (loan).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 6.6% or 0.066. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.066 / 12).

n= 4 years and 7 months, that is 55 months.

And we replace in the formula:

3600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.066}{12})^{-55} }{\frac{0.066}{12} } )

3600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.055)^{-55} }{0.0055} )

3600=P(\frac{1-(0.7395812268)}{0.0055} )

3600=P(\frac{0.2604187732}{0.0055} )

3600=P(47.348867)

Therefore:

P=\frac{3600}{47.348867}

P=76.03

The monthly payment on loan 1 is $76.03.

b. Calculate the monthly payment on loan 2.

We get the data for this exercise:

PV= 11,600 (loan 2).

p= unknown (we must find this value)

i= 7.3% or 0.073. However, because we need to know the monthly payment, the interest rate should be divided by 12 (0.073 / 12).

n= 2 years and 7 months, that is 31 months.

And we replace in the formula:

11600=P(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.073}{12})^{-31} }{\frac{0.073}{12} } )

11600=P(\frac{1-(1+0.006083)^{-31} }{0.006083} )

11600=P(\frac{1-(0.8286047296)}{0.006083} )

11600=P(\frac{0.1713952704}{0.006083} )

11600=P(28.1761088936)

Therefore:

P=\frac{11600}{28.1761088936}

P=411.69

The monthly payment on loan 2 is $411.69.
