On your tenth birthday, you received $1,000 which you invested at 6.5% interest, compounded annually. Your investment is now worth $5,476. How old are you today
Answer:
Age= 37 years
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Present value= $1,000
Future value= $5,476
Interest rate= 6.5%
First, we need to calculate the number of years passed using the following formula:
n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)
n= ln(5,476/1,000) / ln(1.065)
n= 27 years
Age= 10 + 27 = 37 years

Imagine a machine takes 50 minutes to complete one unit on a production line. Of the 50 minutes, 40 minutes was actual productive utilization. For 10 minutes the resource was idle, needing to pause and wait for other processes to finish during the production. What is the average labor utilization (round to the nearest %)
Answer:
80%
Explanation:
the average labor utilization rate is calculated by dividing total labor time applied by the addition of total labor time applied plus idle time. In this case, total labor time applied is 40 minutes and idle time is 10 minutes:
average labor utilization rate = 40 minutes / (40 + 10 minutes) = 40 / 50 = 0.8 = 80%
Income statement: 20X2 Sales $ 2,500,000 Cost of goods sold 1,300,000 Net income 200,000 Balance sheets: 20X2 20X1 Accounts receivable $ 300,000 $ 200,000 Total assets 2,000,000 1,800,000 Total shareholders' equity 900,000 700,000 The return on shareholders' equity for 20X2 is: Multiple Choice 20% 8% 22.22% 25%
Answer:
25%
Explanation:
Return on shareholder's equity = Net income / Average shareholder's equity balance
Net income = $200,000
Average shareholder's equity balance = ($900,000 + $700,000) / 2
= $800,000
Therefore,
Return on shareholder's equity = $200,000 / $800,000
Return on shareholder's equity = 25%
A company is able to process 100 customer statements (bills) per day. It has 250 customer statements (bills) to process per day. How many full-time processing clerks are needed if the company wants a processing-clerk utilization rate as close to 0.80 as possible, without going over 0.80
Answer:
the Number of clerks required is 3.125
Explanation:
The computation of the full time processing clerks required is shown below:
Given that
Service Rate = 100
Demand Rate = 250
Utilization = 0.8
Now
Let us assume the number of servers be s
As we know that
Utilization = Demand Rate ÷ (Service rate × s)
0.8 = 250 ÷ (100 × s)
s = 250 ÷ (100 × 0.8)
s = 3.125
Hence, the Number of clerks required is 3.125

Question 5 of 10
Which statement best summarizes how consumer expectations affect
demand for a product?
A. Demand rises when consumers expect a product to have
complementary goods.
B. Demand falls when consumers expect a product's supply to
decline in the future.
C. Demand rises when consumers expect a product's price to rise in
the future.
D. Demand falls when consumers expect a product to set an
equilibrium price.
ECON
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Demand rises when consumers expect a product's price to rise in the future.
This is so because of the fright of inflation of prices. When consumers are able to predict, or see through an impending inflation in prices of goods, then the consumers rush to buy as much of the said goods as possible, which directly leads to an increase in the demand for the said goods.
And thus, we can see that the expectations of consumers has a direct influence on the demand for goods and services.
Answer:
C. Demand rises when consumers expect a product's price to rise in
the future.

1. People who own more cars tend to live longer than people who own fewer cars. Why is this relationship not evidence that buying more cars increases life expectancy
Answer:
Car & Life Expectancy positive relationship is not evident, as its due to an interlinking lurking variable ie buyer's affluence.
Explanation:
More cars linked to higher life expectancy, positive correlation between these variables is a spurious correlation. Spurious relationship is a relationship between variables, that appears to be true, when it is actually false.
Given variables' correlation is spurious, as it is not logically correct (evident). It seems to be misleading correct because of a lurking variable, buyer's affluence. Lurking variable affects both independent (causal) & dependent (affected) variable, which creates a statistical illusion of variables' correlation.
In this case, affluence being lurking variable affects both number of cars owned & life expectancy. This seemingly creates a correlation between the non evidently linked variables as 'cars & life expectancy having positive relationship'
c. How much higher (lower) would Casebolt Company's net income have been under the direct write-off method than under the allowance method
Answer: $9,375
Explanation:
Under the direct writeoff method, only the actual bad debts incurred will be taken out from the income for the year.
With the Allowance method however, the amount to be taken out will be the percentage expected to be uncollectible.
Under direct method, income would reduce by the actual bad debt of $30,000.
Under Allowance the income would be reduced by;
= ¾% * 5,250,000
= $39,375
Income would be higher with Direct write-off by;
= 39,375 - 30,000
= $9,375

Peter forgot to file his tax return by April 15. He did not file an extension. Peter finally filed his tax return on July 31 and had a remaining tax liability of $3,500. What is Peter's failure to file penalty
Answer:
Peter's failure to file penalty = $700
Explanation:
Peter filed tax return on July 31 after forgetting to file his tax return by April 15 and did not ask for extension. This means that the IRS can impose a 20% penalty on Peter for the tax due on a return where there is negligence, as can be established in this case.
Peter's remaining tax liability = $3,500
Penalty = $700 ($3,500 * 20%)
During the year, the company produced and sold 30,000 units of product at a selling price of $18.50 per unit. There was no beginning inventory of product at the beginning of the year. What is the contribution margin ratio for Blaine Corporation (round to 1 decimal)
Answer: 67.7%

Three Corners Markets paid an annual dividend of $1.8 a share last month. Today, the company announced that future dividends will be increasing by 2.8 percent annually. If you require a return of 12.0 percent, how much are you willing to pay to purchase one share of this stock today
Answer:
$20.11
Explanation:
The computation of the price i.e. paid is shown below:
Given that
Growth rate = 2.8%
Dividend at time 0 = $1.8
So,
Dividend at time 1 = Dividend at time 0 × (1 + growth rate)
= $1.8 × (1 + 2.8%)
= $!.85
And,
Required return = 12%
Based on the above information
Now use the Gordon Growth formula,
Price today = Dividend at time 1 (Required return - Growth rate)
= $1.85 ÷ (12% - 2.8%)
= $20.11

A Rose Is a Rose, but Only If It Is Fresh Supply chains for food and flowers must be fast, and they must be good. When the food supply chain has a problem, the best that can happen is the customer does not get fed on time; the worst that happens is the customer gets food poisoning and dies. In the floral industry, the timing and temperature are also critical. Indeed, flowers are the most perishable agricultural item—even more so than fish. Flowers not only need to move fast, but they must also be kept cool, at a constant temperature of 33 to 37 degrees. And they must be provided preservative-treated water while in transit. Roses are especially delicate, fragile, and perishable. Eighty percent of the roses sold in the U.S. market arrive by air from rural Colombia and Ecuador. Roses move through this supply chain via an intricate but fast transportation network. This network stretches from growers who cut, grade, bundle, pack, and ship; to importers who make the deal; to the U.S. Depar
