The question is incomplete:
If Farmer Brown plants no seeds on his farm, he gets no harvest. If he plants 1 bag of seeds, he gets 5 bushels of wheat. If he plants 2 bags, he gets 9 bushels. If he plants 3 bags, he gets 12 bushels. A bag of seeds costs $120, and seeds are his only cost.
Farmer Brown's total-cost curve is
a. increasing at an increasing rate.
b. increasing at a decreasing rate.
c. increasing at a constant rate.
d. decreasing.
Answer:
a. increasing at an increasing rate.
Explanation:
To determine the answer, you can create a graph with the information given hich is attached.
You can see that the curve is increasing and because of that you can eliminate option d that is decreasing. Then, you have to consider that increasing at a constant rate would show an straight line which is not the case. Also, increasing at a decreasing rate would show a decreasing slope which is not what you see in the graph. Because of that, the answer is that Farmer Brown’s total cost curve is increasing at an increasing rate because the graphs shows an increasing slope.
Answer:
closest to: B) $7777
Explanation:
NPV ( net presetn value) cashflow - investment
<u>cost savings present value (ordinary annuity):</u>
C $8,500
time 5 years
rate 0.12
PV $30,640.5977
salvage value present value:
Salvage $2,000
time 5
rate 0.12
PV 1,134.85
NPV: 30,640.60 + 1,134.85 - 24,000 = 7,775.45
It can be deduced that the number of blankets that must be sold in order for the company to achieve the target profit is 40000.
<h3>How to calculate the target profit</h3>
From the information, Blissful Blankets' target profit is $520,000 and each blanket has a contribution margin of $21. Fixed costs are $320,000.
Therefore, the number of blankets that must be sold to achieve the target profit will be:
= (520000+320000)/21
= 40000

(12-6)/12 gives you the growth rate *over five years* (115%)
divide that by 5 and you get an average rate of 23% growth per year.
If we’re rounding, yes, that statement is correct. Otherwise, growth over five years doubled because there was a growth of 115% and year-over-year growth was 23%.
