How does simple interest differ from compound interest?
You earn simple interest in a savings account and compound interest on an investment.
Simple interest rates are between 1-5% while compound interest rates are over 5%.
Simple interest is calculated on the principal as well as the interest you’ve already earned; compound interest is calculated on principal alone.
Simple interest is calculated on principal alone; compound interest is calculated on the principal as well as the interest you’ve already earned.
Answer:
Simple interest is calculated on principal alone; compound interest is calculated on the principal as well as the interest you’ve already earned.
Explanation:
Simple interest remains a constant amount throughout the life of the loan or deposit. The amount does not change because it is calculated based on the principal amount only. As long as the principal amount is unchanged, the simple interest amount will remain the same.
Compounding refers to the adding of interest earned to the principal amount. At the end of a financial period, the interest earned is added to the principal. In the next period, the principal amount will be higher due to the interest earned added. An increase in the principal amount results in higher interest earnings.

The following information is available regarding John Smith's capital account in Technology Consulting Group, a general partnership, for a recent year: Beginning of the year balance $ 32,000 His share of partnership income $ 11,000 Withdrawals made during the year $ 7,000 What is Smith's partner return on equity during the year in question
Answer:
32.35%
Explanation:
Calculation for What is Smith's partner return on equity during the year in question
First step is to calculate the Ending partner equity
Ending partner equity = $32,000 + $11,000 - $7,000
Ending partner equity = $36,000
Now let calculate the partner return on equity
Partner return on equity= $11,000 / (($32,000 + $36,000)/2)
Partner return on equity= $11,000/($68,000/2)
Partner return on equity= $11,000/$34,000
Partner return on equity= 32.35%
Therefore Smith's partner return on equity during the year in question will be 32.35%

Minion, Inc., has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $344,400. Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are projected to be $49,000 if economic conditions are normal. If there is strong expansion in the economy, then EBIT will be 17 percent higher. If there is a recession, then EBIT will be 26 percent lower. The company is considering a $175,000 debt issue with an interest rate of 8 percent. The proceeds will be used to repurchase shares of stock. There are currently 8,200 shares outstanding. Assume the company has a market-to-book ratio of 1.0 and the stock price remains constant.a. Calculate earnings per share (EPS) under each of the three economic scenarios before any debt is issued. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. Calculate the percentage changes in EPS when the economy expands or enters a recession. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
A. $5.97
$6.99
$4.42
B. 17%
26%
Explanation:
A. If Economy conditions are normal
$49,000 / 8,200 shares = $5.97 each
If Economy expands
$49,000 * 117 / 100 = $57,330
$57,330 / 8,200 shares = $6.99 each
If Economy is in recession
$49,000 * 74 / 100 = $36,260
$36,260 / 8,200 = $4.42 each
B.
If Economy expands
$6.99 - $5.97 = $1.02
$1.02 / $5.97 * 100 = 17%
If Economy is in recession
$4.42 - $5.97 = -$1.55
-$1.55 / $5.97 = -26%

There are currently 417 students enrolled in Webster Elementary School, and the number of students is decreasing at the rate of 15 students per year. Currently the annual expense to educate one student is $1,149, and the expense to educate one student is increasing at the rate of $39 per year. Use the product rule to determine the rate at which the total expense to educate the students at Webster Elementary School is currently changing per year.
Answer:
Current student = 417
Student increasing rate per year = 15
Annual cost to educate one student = $1,149
The decreasing rate on one student = $39
Total decreasing cost = 417*$39 = $16,263
Total cost of Increase students per year = 15 * $1,149 = $17,235
∴$17,235 - $16,263 = $972
So, the cost to educate the students at Webster Elementary School is increasing at the rate of $972 per year.

Northern Wood Products is an all-equity firm with 16,300 shares of stock outstanding and a total market value of $354,000. Based on its current capital structure, the firm is expected to have earnings before interest and taxes of $27,000 if the economy is normal, $14,800 if the economy is in a recession, and $39,200 if the economy booms. Ignore taxes. Management is considering issuing $88,600 of debt with an interest rate of 8 percent. If the firm issues the debt, the proceeds will be used to repurchase stock. What will the earnings per share be if the debt is issued and the economy is in a recession
Answer:
$0.63
Explanation:
Calculation for What will the earnings per share be if the debt is issued and the economy is in a recession
First step is to calculate the Shares repurchased
Shares repurchased=$88,600/($354,000/16,300)
Shares repurchased=$88,600/21.7
Shares repurchased = 4,083 shares
Second step is to calculate the Shares outstanding
Shares outstanding = 16,300 - 4,083
Shares outstanding= 12,217shares
Last step is to calculate earnings per share recession
Earnings per share Recession= [$14,800 - ($88,600 × 0.08)]/12,217
Earnings per share Recession= ($14,800 - $7,088)/12,217
Earnings per share Recession=$7,712/12,217
Earnings per share Recession=0.63
Therefore what the earnings per share will be if the debt is issued and the economy is in a recession is 0.63
Blue Company acquired a manufacturing facility on four acres of land for a lump-sum price of $8,400,000. The building included used but functional equipment. Blue Company intended to use the manufacturing facility in its future operatioins. According to independent appraisals, the fair values were $3,480,000, $3,480,000, and $4,640,000 for the building, land, and equipment, respectively. The initial values of the building, land, and equipment would be: Building Land Equipment a.$3,480,000 $3,480,000 $4,640,000 b.$3,480,000 $3,480,000 $580,000 c.$2,520,000 $2,520,000 $3,360,000 d.None of these answer choices are correct. Multiple Choice Option C Option B Option A Option D
Answer: c.$2,520,000 $2,520,000 $3,360,000
Explanation:
Sum the fair values from the independent appraisals up;
= 3,480,000 + 3,480,000 + 4,640,000
= $11,600,000
The proportion of the individual fair value to the total fair value can then be used to calculate the originals from the lump sum;
Building
= 3,480,000/11,600,000 * 8,400,000
= $2,520,000
Land
= 3,480,000/11,600,000 * 8,400,000
= $2,520,000
Equipment
= 4,640,000/11,600,000 * 8,400,000
= $3,360,000

Their revenue, cost and activity information is as follows: Micro Macro Super Direct revenues $700,000 $850,000 $650,000 Direct operating expenses $50,000 $70,000 $100,000 Number of copies made 20,000 30,000 50,000 Number of invoices processed 700 800 500 Number of employees 130 145 125
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The question is:
1. What is the service department charge rate for Graphics Production?
a.$10.00
b.$2.00
c.$0.50
d.$6.66
The service department charge for Graphics Production will be calculated by dividing the cost of graphic production by the total number of copies that are made. This will be:
= $200000/(20000 + 30000 + 50000)
= $200,000 / 100,000
= $2 per copy

b.$145,000
c.$345,000
d.$60,000
The service department cost that is allocated to the Micro Division will be calculated as:
= [20000 x ($200000/100000)] + [700 x ($500000/2000)] + [130 x ($400000/400)]
= (20000 × 2) + (700 × 250) + (130 × 1000)
= $40000 + $175000 + $130000
= $345000

Franklin is designing an advertisement. What is a good practice for him to follow? A. make the headline long and complicated B. use simple images in the advertisement C. show the product in use in the advertisement D. use a lot of text in the advertisement
Answer:
I would say C. Show the product in use in the advertisement.
Explanation The point of advertisement is that people immediately know if they want to have/buy the products advertised. With showing the product in use, you achieve exactly this. If person likes, what he sees, he buys the product.
On the other hand, if a person only sees random simple images, he may see pictures of not the product itself or the purpose for what it can be used. So he doesn't know, if he needs or wants the product.
Answer:
C. show the product in use in the advertisement
Explanation:
Try to show the product in use in your photograph rather than a static picture of the product. Showing the product in use more effectively demonstrates its usability.

According to the rule of 72, approximately how long will it take for her money
to double?
A. 8 years
B. 16 years
C. 12 years
D. 18 years
Answer:
D. 18 years
Explanation:
Felicia has $175; doubling it will make it $350 ($175 x 2)
The interest per year is 4%
The applicable formula is A= P ( 1 + r)^n
where A = $350
P=$175
r=0.04
n= time ???
$350=$175 (1 +0.04)^n
350= 175(1.04)^n
350/175=1.04^n
2=1.04^n
log 2= (log 1.04)n
n= log2/ log1.04
n= 0.30102/0.017033
n= 17.70 year
n=18 years
Wininger Corporation has 1000 shares of 6%, $50 par value, cumulative preferred stock and 25,000 shares of $1 par value common stock outstanding on December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020. The board of directors declared and paid a $2,000 dividend in 2019. In 2020, $15,000 of dividends are declared and paid. What are the dividends received by the common stockholders in 2020 (there were no dividends in arrears prior to 2019)
Answer:
Dividends received by the common stockholders in 2020 = $12,000
Explanation:
Cumulative preferred stock can be described as a type of preferred stock whose dividends accumulate when they are not paid in any year and their accumulated dividends has to be paid in future before common stockholders receive any dividend.
The dividends received by the common stockholders of Wininger Corporation in 2020 can therefore be calculated as follows:
Annual dividend payable to cumulative preferred stock = 1000 * 5% * $50 = $2,500
Dividend declared paid in 2019 = $2,000
Dividend declared and paid in 2020 = $15,000
Outstanding dividend payable to cumulative preferred stock in 2019 = Annual dividend payable to cumulative preferred stock - Dividend declared in 2019 = $2,500 - 2,000 = $500
Dividend paid to cumulative preferred stock in 2020 = Outstanding dividend payable to cumulative preferred stock in 2019 + Annual dividend payable to cumulative preferred stock = $500 + $2,500 = $3,000
