erica [24]

Answer:

a) although both methods result in the same net increase or decrease in cash for the year, net cash flow from operating activities will be different under the two methods

Explanation:

Using the indirect method, computation of cash flow from operating activities begins with net income as shown in the income statement. The FASB also permits both methods but has expressed a preference for the direct method and the direct method shows the specific cash inflow and outflows for each operating activities of the business.

This option that does not align with the differences between the 2 methods is that the cash flow reported under direct and indirect method for operating activities would always remain the same notwithstanding the method used.

The average cost of tuition and room and board at a small private liberal arts college is reported to be $8,500 per term, but a

mojhsa [17]

Answer & Explanation:

The null hypothesis (H0) is what the study is trying to reject, is what the study wants to disprove. In this case, the financial administrator believes that the average cost of tuition and room is greater than $8,500. Then, he wants to statistically disprove that the average cost per term is equal to $8,500.

H0: average cost = $8,500

H0:μ=$8,500

The alternative hypothesis (H1) is the opposite, is what the financial administrator wants to prove: the average cost per term is greater than $8,500.

H1: average cost > $8,500

H1:μ>$8,500

An automated turning machine is the current constraint at Jordison Corporation. Three products use this constrained resource. Da

Maru [420]

Answer:A. LN, JQ, RQ

Explanation:

To know the current profitability, we need to determine the contribution margin unit by the minutes on the constraints .

a) For LN

Contribution by unit = Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit

$ 161.88 -$116.12 = $45.76

Contribution by the minutes = Contribution by unit / Minutes on the constraint

= $45.76/ 2.60 = 17.60

B) For JQ

Contribution by unit = Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit

$ 350.41 -$279.11 = $71.3

Contribution by the minutes = Contribution by unit / Minutes on the constraint

= $71.3/ 4.60 = 15.50

c) For RQ

Contribution by unit = Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit

$ 446.71 -$338.71 = $108

Contribution by the minutes = Contribution by unit / Minutes on the constraint

= $108/ 7.50 = 14.40

In order of their current profitability from most profitable to least profitable, We have LN with 17.60, next JQ with 15.50 and the least RQ with 14.40

ou are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $890 per month in a stock account and

Romashka [77]

Answer:

Monthly withdraw= $23,294.99

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Stock:

Monthly deposit= $890

Number of periods= 30*12= 360

Interest rate= 0.109 / 12= 0.0091

Bond:

Monthly deposit= $490

Number of periods= 30*12= 360

Interest rate= 0.069 / 12= 0.00575

First, we need to calculate the amount of money collected at the moment of retirement. We need to use the following formula on each investment:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

Stock:

FV= {890*[(1.0091^360) - 1]} / 0.0091

FV= $2,452,918.1

Bond:

FV= {490*[(1.00575^360) - 1]} / 0.00575

FV= $586,123.47

Total FV= 2,452,918.1 + 586,123.47

Total FV= $3,039,041.57

Now, the monthly withdrawal for 25 years:

Number of periods= 25*12= 300

Interest rate= 0.079 / 12= 0.0066

Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]

Monthly withdraw= (3,039,041.57*0.0066) / [1 - (1.0066^-300)]

Monthly withdraw= $23,294.99
