Andrew [12]

Answer: $22,500

Explanation:

First calculate the rate of allocation based on sales to determine how much of Department T's sales should be attributed to Advertising.

The Rate of Allocation based on Sales = Advertising Expense/Total sales

= 50,000/475,000

= 0.105263

= 10.5263%

This 10.5% can then be used to find out how much of Advertising to apportion to Department T based on department sales,

= Department sales * Allocation rate

= 213,750 * 10.5263%

= $22,500

$22,500 should be allocated to Department T.

You are scheduled to receive annual payments of $60,000 for each of the next 20 years. The annual rate of return is 8 percent. W

babymother [125]

Answer:

= $ 219,657.43

Explanation:

FV of annuity = P x [(1+r) n -1/r]

P = Periodic payment = $ 20,000

r = Periodic interest rate = 0.08

n = Number of periods = 20

FV = $ 60,000 x [(1+ 0.08)20 -1/0.08]

= $ 60,000 x [(1.08)20 -1/0.08]

= $ 60,000 x [(4.66095714384931 -1)/0.08]

= $ 60,000 x (3.66095714384931/0.08)

= $ 60,000 x 45.7619642981163

= $ 2,745,717.85788698 or $ 2,745,717.86

FV of annuity due =(1+r) x P x [(1+r) n -1/r]

= (1+0.08) x $ 2,745,717.85788698

= 1.08 x $ 2,745,717.85788698

= $ 2,965,375.28651794 or $ 2,965,375.29

Difference in FV of ordinary annuity and annuity due

= $ 2,965,375.29 - $ 2,745,717.86

= $ 219,657.43

Answer: a. less than the socially optimal price, greater than the socially optimal quantity

The Steel Mill is also selling quantity that is greater than what would be considered socially optimal because the socially optimal level would account for the pollution and adjust in such a way that the Pollution is minimized
