Answer: $3,286.47
Explanation:
Find the future value of the annuity after 10 years.
Number of periods = 10 * 12 months = 120 months
Interest = 3.2% / 12 = 3.2/12%
Future value of annuity = Annuity * ( (1 + rate)^ number of periods- 1) / rate
= 155 * ( ( 1 + 3.2%/12) ¹²⁰- 1) / 3.2%/12
= $21,886.47
The find the amount that the money would have come to without being invested:
= 155 * 120 months
= $18,600
Interest is:
= 21,886.47 - 18,600
= $3,286.47
Explain the term "marginal rate of technical substitution." (Assume a two-input production function.)
Answer:
La relación marginal técnica de sustitución (RMTS) expresa la proporción en que un factor productivo se puede sustituir por otro, manteniendo constante la producción total.
Esta relación técnica busca sistemáticamente obtener la cantidad de un factor de producción que hay que disminuir con el objetivo de aumentar en cierto nivel, otro factor productivo. En tal caso la curva de la producción se mantiene en la misma isocuanta de tal forma que tenemos: RMTS= Δ K / Δ L.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.
When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.
Cash flow in year 0 = $-82,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $32,000
Cash flow in year 2 = $32,000
Cash flow in year 3 = $32,000
Cash flow in year 4 = $36,000
I = 9%
NPV = $24,504.
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Ormand Organic Grocery has invested in a yogurt stand for its store. The investment cost the company $100,000. Variable materials, preparation, and marketing costs are expected to be $1.30 per unit and fixed costs are estimated at $7,400 a year. If actual sales were 21,400 servings, what would the ROI be using the sales price of $2.40
Answer:
15.4%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what would the ROI be
ROI=[ ( $2.40 - $1.30) * 21,400 - $7,400]/100,000
ROI=($1.1 * 14,000)/100,000
ROI=$15,400/100,000
ROI=0.154*100
ROI=15.4%
Therefore the ROI would be 15.4%

Westside Plumbing and Heating Company is offered a contract for$100,000 to provide plumbing for a new building. The labor and equip-ment costs are calculated to be $60,000 for fulfilling the contract. West-side has materials in its inventory to complete the job. The raw ma-terials initially cost the firm $50,000; however the material prices havedeclined in the interim and now cost only $37,500. Thus if thefirmchose not to accept the contract and sells the materials, they wouldincur a loss of $12,500. Material prices are not expected to go up inthe future. Should Westside accept the contract. Explain your answer.
Answer:
Westside Plumbing and Heating Company
Westside should accept the contract.
By accepting the contract at the price of $100,000, Westside incurs a total cost of $97,500 and makes a little profit of $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500). The contract enables Westside to utilize the materials that it has in inventory instead of allowing it to deteriorate further in value.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Contract price = $100,000
Labor and equipment costs = $60,000
Original cost of materials = $50,000
Materials market price = $37,500
Total costs to be incurred = $97,500 ($60,000 + $37,500)
Profit to be earned = $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500)
Beginning work in process are 40,000 units and units started this period are 20,000 units. The total units to account for are:______.
Answer: 60,000
Explanation:
Since we are given the information that the beginning work in process are 40,000 units and units started this period are 20,000 units, then the total units to account for will be the addition of the beginning work in process and the units started this period. This will be:
= 40000 + 20000
= 60000
Therefore, the total units to account for is 60000.

NetonBe makes sweaters, which traditionally involved the following steps: dyeing (i.e., into six different colors), knitting of the dyed fabric into three sizes each (small, medium, and large) and then distributing to the stores. As such, there were 18 different sweater color & size combinations in the end, each with a demand that is normally distributed with a mean of 1,000 and a standard deviation of 100. NetonBe has just developed a new system that allows them to knit a generic color sweater first, and then dyeing this generic sweater. As such, they only need to hold safety inventory for the three sizes, each with an average demand of 6,000. What would be the standard deviation in demand for each of these three generic sweaters?
a) Approximately 600
b) Approximately 300
c) Approximately 245
d) Approximately 60
Answer:
NetonBe
The standard deviation in demand for each of these three generic sweaters is:
a) Approximately 600
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Different sweater color & size combinations in the end = 18
Normally distributed demand mean of size = 1,000
Total demand of sizes = 18,000
Standard deviation of each size = 100
Standard deviation = 10% of mean (100/1,000 * 100)
Standard deviation for the total sizes = 1,800 (18,000 * 10%)
Average demand of new three sizes = 6,000
Total demand for the three new sizes = 18,000 (6,000 * 3)
Therefore, the standard deviation in demand for each of these three generic sweaters will be = 600 (6,000 * 10%)

Explanation:
Competitive Analysis
This is commonly refered to as a form of research review and final evaluation of one's competitors. It is beneficial due to the fact that the information you obtained/known can help you to be based on your competitor weaknesses
When starting this analysis, always you set up expectations that can be achieved so that one's team has enough time to fully research, analyze, and share their findings.
Competitive analysis, as a part of your business planning, is a means by which an individual believes that their business will survive and thrive competitively in the market because the individual has full attachment to current competitors and one's potential competition too. Putting the robot through a drop test is not correct as it may destroy it.
The ________ function is responsible for making sure customers are aware of the company's products. Group of answer choices
Answer:
sales and marketing.
Explanation:
The sales and marketing function is essential to ensure that the customer knows and has access to the company's products through an effective communication, distribution and customer service system.
There needs to be planning and research to identify who your potential consumer is, what are their needs and preferences, where they usually buy the product, how often, what their income, which media they access most, etc., so that there is the correct allocation of resources for advertising, product distribution and other variables, so that the product is available to the customer in the right place, in the right quantity, at the right time and quality.
The quantity demanded x for a product is inversely proportional to the cube of the price p for p > 1. When the price is $10 per unit, the quantity demanded is 64 units. The initial cost is $140 and the cost per unit is $4. What price will yield a maximum profit? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
$______
Answer:
$6.00
Explanation:
Given data
quantity demanded ( x ) ∝ 1 / p^3 for p > 1
when p = $10/unit , x = 64
initial cost = $140, cost per unit = $4
Determine the price that will yield a maximum profit
x = k/p^3 ----- ( 1 ). when x = 64 , p = $10 , k = constant
64 = k/10^3
k = 64 * ( 10^3 )
= 64000
back to equation 1
x = 64000 / p^3
∴ p = 40 / ∛x
next calculate the value of revenue generated
Revenue(Rx) = P(price ) * x ( quantity )
= 40 / ∛x * x = 40 x^2/3
next calculate Total cost of product
C(x) = 140 + 4x
Maximum Profit generated = R(x) - C(x) = 0
= 40x^2/3 - 140 + 4x = 0
= 40(2/3) x^(2/3 -1) - 0 - 4 = 0
∴ ∛x = 20/3 ∴ x = (20/3 ) ^3 = 296
profit is maximum at x(quantity demanded ) = 296 units
hence the price that will yield a maximum profit
P = 40 / ∛x
= ( 40 / (20/3) ) = $6
Sheffield Corp. has a materials price standard of $2.00 per pound. 4900 pounds of materials were purchased at $2.20 a pound. The actual quantity of materials used was 4900 pounds, although the standard quantity allowed for the output was 4000 pounds. Sheffield Corp.'s materials quantity variance is:_____.
a. $1980 U.
b. $1800 F.
c. $1800 U.
d. $1980 F.
Answer:
a. $1,980 U
Explanation:
We will compute the direct materials quantity variance using the formula below.
Direct materials quantity variance =
(Standard quantity allowed - Actual quantity of materials) × Materials price standard
Fixing in the values, we'll have;
Direct materials quantity variance
= (4,000 pounds - 4,900 pounds) × $2.20 per pound
= -900 pounds × $2.20 per pound
= -$1,980
= $1,980 U

The selling price of Deluxe and Super are $31.50 and $19.50, respectively. The incremental net income of processing further would be:
Answer:
the incremental net income of processing further is $38,750
Explanation:
The computation of the incremental net income of processing further is given below:
= (11,500 units × $31.50 + 5,500 units × $19.50 - $11,500) - ($19,500 × $21.50)
= ($362,250 + $107,250 - $11,500) - $419,250
= $38,750
Hence, the incremental net income of processing further is $38,750
