Answer: A. incorrect because part of each payment is to principal and to interest. Therefore, only a portion of the payment goes to interest, so the full amount should not be included when computing the rate of interest paid.
Explanation:
When paying back a loan, there are two components to the periodic interest payment. The first component is the interest payment. This is the payment to compensate the borrower for loaning out the money and is based on the interest rate and the principal left to be repaid.
The second component goes towards repaying the principal of the loan which in this case is $10,000. When computing the periodic interest rate therefore, the entire amount paid per period should not be used as it would inflate the interest rate.
Answer:
It is more profitable to raise the selling price by $2.
Explanation:
To determine whether the company should raise the selling price, we need to determine the effect on income. <u>The best option is the one with the higher sales revenue.</u>
Sales revenue= selling price * number of units
<u>Current:</u>
Sales revenue= 5.5*2,200= $12,100
<u>Proposal:</u>
Sales revenue= 7.5*1,800= $13,500
It is more profitable to raise the selling price by $2.

Answer:
Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
The utility maximization point for a consumer is as follows:
It is given that,
price of Pepsi(x) = $1 per can
price of a hamburger(y) = $2
Marginal utility from Pepsi = 4
Marginal utility from hamburgers = 6
Hence,
4 > 3
Therefore, it can be seen that the consumer's utility is not maximized at this point.
Law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the consumer consumes more and more quantity of goods then as a result the utility obtained from the consumption goes on diminishing.
So, there is a need to increase the quantity of Pepsi consumed and reducing the quantity of hamburgers consumed.

c. Yes, we should
Explanation:
Annual cost to maintain old forklift is $5,000
Equivalent Annual Cost (EAC) of new forklift = (Asset price x discount rate)/(1-(1+discount rate)-n), in which n is the number of year for usage of this forklift?
If discount rate is 4% per year, the EAC of new forklift is $2,465.82
= ($20,000x4%)/(1-(1+4%)-10)
If discount rate is 12% per year, the EAC of new forklift is $3,539.68
= ($20,000x12%)/(1-(1+12%)-10)
We should replace because with such above discount rate, the old forklift is more costly than the new one
