It will take an approximate of 52 years to triple the initial investment.

The formula for Future value is <em>A = Pe^(rt)</em>

<u></u>

<u>Given Information</u>

Triple amount

Rate = 2.1%

3 = e^(.0.021t)\\ln(3) = 0.021t\\t = ln(3)/0.021\\t = 1.09861228867 / 0.021\\t = 52.314870889\\t = 52.31

Therefore, it will take an approximate of 52 years to triple the initial investment.

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Total E&P = $ 160000

Total voting Right Sold = 50/ (100+100) = 25%

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = Total E&P*Total voting Right Sold

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = 160000*25%

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = 40000

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or (50*1000)

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or 50000

Answer

A reduction of $40,000 in E&P because of the exchange.

The following information was available for the year ended December 31, 2019: Net sales $ 894,250 Cost of goods sold 616,850 Ave
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Net sales - $894,250

Cost of Goods - $ 616850

Average account receivable - $40,650

Account receivable at year end - $28200

Average inventory - $182000

Inventory at year end - $158,000

Inventory turn over

Cost of Goods sold / Average inventory for the period

616850/182000= 3.40 times

No of days sales in inventory = Ending inventory / Cost of Goods sold *365

158000/616850*365 = 93.5 days

Account receivable turnover = net credit sale / average receivable

894250/40650=21.9

No of days sales in account receivable -

Receivable at year end/total credit sales*365

28200/894250*365= 11.5 days

A growing trend to "Buy American" may encourage U.S. automakers to increase political pressure on Washington to pass legislation
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

C) a positive result from regulatory and economic environmental forces.

Explanation:

In the short run the whole economy will benefit, more American jobs will be created, consumers will probably get good cars at even lower prices, but on the long run the scenario may not be that good for everyone. If Toyota builds the plant, it will be the result of economic and political pressures, and that is a game that two can play, just ask farmers about the trade deal with China.

On the other hand, this is a type of deja vu (or been there, done that), and it ended up with GM and Chrysler bankrupt and Ford barely surviving. This types of policies were enforced in the 1980s by president Reagan and the famous "Made in the USA" by Bruce Springsteen. Back then Honda had a small factory and Toyota was starting to consider building a plant in the US, Nissan hadn't showed up yet. Fast forward a few years and the only good American vehicles are pickups, the Japanese brands wiped out the rest. The country is full of Camrys, Accords, Civics, Corollas, CRVs and Rav4s. They are great cars, too great for the American car manufacturers to compete against. Who knows, with this type of policies maybe in 10 years the only American car manufacturer left will be Tesla.

This is like playing with fire on top of a fuel truck.
