Answer:
A) a 23.5% decrease in materials
B) a 64% decrease in labor costs
C) a 29.1% decrease in overhead
Explanation:
White Tiger's multifactor productivity = $300 / $148 = 2.027
if we want to increase the multifactor productivity by 12%, it will = 2.27
since we will not change the sales price, we must determine the new total cost:
$300 / cost = 2.27
cost = $300 / 2.27 = $132.16 ≈ $132, which represents a $16 decrease
A) materials ⇒ $16/$68 = 23.5%
B) labor costs ⇒ $16/$25 = 64%
C) overhead ⇒ $16/$55 = 29.1%
Expected rate of return Probabilities
Booming 22% 5%
Normal 15% 92%
Recession 2% 3%
The expected rate of return on this stock is solved by multiply each expected rate of return to its corresponding probability and getting the sum of all products.
Booming: 0.22 x 0.05 = 0.011
Normal: 0.15 x 0.92 = 0.138
Recession 0.02 x 0.03 =<u> 0.0006</u>
Sum total 0.1496 or 14.96% is the expected rate of return on this stock
Your answer would be ( A ) one - sided message
Answer:
13.70%
Explanation:
We use the PMT formula which is to be shown in the attachment
Given that,
Present value = $1,326.50
Future value = $1,000
Rate of interest = 9.8% ÷ 2 = 4.9%
NPER = 18 years × 2 = 36 years
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(Rate;NPER;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this, the PMT is
= $68.48 × 2
= $136.92
Now the coupon rate is
= $136.92 ÷ $1,000
= 13.70%
