a) The school of management that the Management of XYZ Company Limited is applying is called <em>Mathematical or Quantitative School of Management.</em>

The Mathematical or Quantitative School of Management:

  • Expresses management problems in equations, mathematical symbols, and quantitative models  
  • Encourages wide application of computer technology, simulations, and analytics
  • Introduces precision to management thinking and practice

b) The Contingency School, unlike the Mathematical  School of Management:

  • Recognizes that not all management processes can be expressed with mathematical symbols and formulas.
  • Identifies that mathematical models cannot replace sound judgment, which requires intuition and not equation.
  • States that there is no single technique to solving management problems.
  • Encourages managers to use any feasible management technique to solve problems, thereby thinking outside the box.
  • Emphasizes that the applications of management principles and practices (process, behavioral, quantitative, and systems) should be contingent upon the prevailing circumstances.  

Thus, with Contingency School, the tools of management thinking and practice should be applied based on prevailing situations and not mathematically with equations, models, and symbols.

A theory asserts that consumers will purchase less of a good at higher prices than they will at lower prices.
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

b. It is likely that variables other than the price and quantity of cars demanded were

changing.

Explanation:

The law of demand states that the higher the price of a good, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price of a good, the higher the quantity demanded.

If price of cars was increasing and the quantity demanded also was increasing, it indicates other variables were changing. For example, if income was increasing at the time, the demand for cars would increase if cars are normal goods.

You plan to purchase a $340,000 house using either a 25-year mortgage obtained from your local savings bank with a rate of 8.10
larisa [96]

Answer:

a. Interest under 10 year mortgage = CUMIPMT(7.1%/12, 10*12, 340000*80%, 1, 10*12, 0)

Interest under 10 year mortgage = 108662.44

Interest under 25 year mortgage = CUMIPMT(8.1%/12, 10*12, 340000*80%, 1, 25*12, 0)

Interest under 25 year mortgage = 363217.16

Difference in interest = 363217.16 - 108662.44

Difference in interest = 254554.72

b. Monthly payment under 10 year = PMT(7.1%/12, 10*12, 340000*80%)

Monthly payment under 10 year = 3172.19

Monthly payment under 25 year = PMT(8.1%/12, 25*12, 340000*80%)

Monthly payment under 25 year = 2117.39

Difference in the monthly payment = 3172.19 - 2117.39

Difference in the monthly payment = 1054.80

castortr0y [4]

The required return on the company's stock given the growth rate and the dividend yield is 10.4%.

<h3>What is the required return?</h3>

The required return is the return that investors demand for investing in a stock. The more risky a stock is, the higher the return demanded by investors.

Required return = dividend yield + growth rate

4.6% + 5.8% = 10.40%

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

. the law of demand

Explanation:

The law of demand proclaims that the demand for a product or service is indirectly related to its price. Demand is the quantity of a product that buyers are willing to purchase at a specific price over a period. Should the price of the goods or service increase, its demand decline. A reduction in price causes the demand to rise.

Louise is experiencing the law of demand in play. A drop in price is causing the demand to increase. More customers are finding the reduced price as a good value for their money. The group of customers who could not previously afford the painting can now buy them.

The YTM on a bond is the interest rate you earn on your investment if interest rates don’t change. If you actually sell the bond
prisoha [69]

Answer: Yield to Maturity (Return) = 9.04% , Value of the Bond in 2 years = $ 1656.71

Explanation:

Calculating the expected return (yield to maturity)

Future value = $1000

Price = $1200

Coupon = $110 (1000×11/100)

N (number of period) = 19 years

yield to maturity = (C + (Fv - P)÷N) / ((Fv+P)÷2)

yield to maturity = (110 + (1200 - 1000)÷19) / ((12000+1000)÷2)

yield to maturity = (99.47368421)/1100 = 0.090430622

yield to maturity = 9.04%

Calculating value of the bond in two years

Price = $1200

Coupon (Pmt) = $110 (1000×11/100)

N (number of periods) = 2 years

R (YIELD TO MATURITY) = 9.04%

Future Value of a bond = Future Value of the price + Future value of the annuity

FV = P(1+R)^n + (Pmt × (1+R)^2 - 1)/ R

FV = 1000(1 + 0.0904)^2 + 110(1 +0.0904)^2 - 1)/0.0904

FV = 1426.766592 + 229.944

FV = 1656.710596

FV = 1656.71

the selling price of the bond will be $ 1656.76
