Twinkies on the shelf of a convenience store lose their fresh tastiness over time. We say that the taste quality is 11 when the Twinkies are first put on the shelf at the store, and that the quality of tastiness declines according to the function Q(t)=.85tQ(t)=.85t (tt in days). Determine when the taste quality will be one half of its original value.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4.27 days

Explanation:

Initial taste quality = 1

Quality of tastiness declines using this function

Q(t)  = 0.85^t ( t in days )

Determine when the taste quality will be 1/2 of original value

i.e. when Q(t) = 1/2

1/2 = 0.85^t

= In ( 2 ) = - t ( In 0.85 )

∴ t = - In (2) / In (0.85)

     = 4.265 days  ≈ 4.27 days

Answers

Answer:

only if we include environmental and social goals in the planning.

Explanation:

An economy is a function of how money, means of production and resources (raw materials) are carefully used to facilitate the demands and supply of goods and services to meet the unending needs or requirements of the consumers.

Hence, a region's or country's economy is largely dependent on how resources are being allocated and utilized, how many goods and services are to be produced, what should be produced, for whom they are to be produced for and how much money are to be spent by the consumers to acquire these goods and services.

Sustainable development can be defined as an idea or development model that is typically aimed at providing basic human needs such as food, fiber, textiles, etc., without compromising or jeopardizing the ability of future generations to create agricultural solutions to their own basic needs.

Generally, economic goals for sustainable development and growth of a country can be formulated only if environmental and social goals are included in the planning.

Western Electric has 34,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $83 and a rate of return of 12.80 percent. The firm has 7,500 shares of 8.20 percent preferred stock outstanding at a price of $97.00 per share. The preferred stock has a par value of $100. The outstanding debt has a total face value of $416,000 and currently sells for 113 percent of face. The yield to maturity on the debt is 8.20 percent. What is the firm's weighted average cost of capital if the tax rate is 40 percent

Answers

Answer:

11.03 %

Explanation:

Cost of Capital = Cost of equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock  + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt.

where,

Cost of equity =  12.80 %

Cost of Preferred Stock = 8.20 %

Cost of Debt =  8.20 x (1 - 0.40) = 4.92 %

also,

Total Market Value = 34,000 x $83 + 7,500 x $97.00 + $416,000 x 113%

                                = $2,822,000 + $727,500 + $470,080

                                = $4,019,580

Weight of Equity = $2,822,000 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.70

Weight of Preferred Stock = $727,500 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.18

Weight of Debt = $470,080 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.12

therefore,

Cost of Capital = 12.80 % x 0.70 + 8.20 % x 0.18 + 4.92 % x 0.12

                         = 11.03 %

What are similarity and difference between delayed payment and trade credit?
Help me pls, I have a time limited

Answers

Answer:

Delayed Payment means a purchase by a buyer in which title to the grain passes to the buyer at a determined price and payment to the seller is not made in less than twenty-one (21) days after delivery.

Answer:

Trade credit is a business-to-business (B2B) agreement in which a customer can purchase goods without paying cash up front, and paying the supplier at a later scheduled date. Usually, businesses that operate with trade credits will give buyers 30, 60, or 90 days to pay, with the transaction recorded through an invoice.

Trade credit can be thought of as a type of 0% financing, increasing a company’s assets while deferring payment for a specified value of goods or services to some time in the future and requiring no interest to be paid in relation to the repayment period.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Trade credit is a type of commercial financing in which a customer is allowed to purchase goods or services and pay the supplier at a later scheduled date.

Trade credit can be a good way for businesses to free up cash flow and finance short-term growth.

Trade credit can create complexity for financial accounting depending on the accounting method used.

Trade credit financing is usually encouraged globally by regulators and can create opportunities for new financial technology solutions.

Suppliers are usually at a disadvantage with a trade credit as they have sold goods but not received payment.

Trade Credit

Understanding Trade Credit

Trade credit is an advantage for a buyer. In some cases, certain buyers may be able to negotiate longer trade credit repayment terms, which provides an even greater advantage. Often, sellers will have specific criteria for qualifying for trade credit.

A B2B trade credit can help a business to obtain, manufacture, and sell goods before ever having to pay for them. This allows businesses to receive a revenue stream that can retroactively cover costs of goods sold. Walmart is one of the biggest utilizers of trade credit, seeking to pay retroactively for inventory sold in their stores. International business deals also involve trade credit terms. In general, if trade credit is offered to a buyer it typically always provides an advantage for a company’s cash flow.

The number of days for which a credit is given is determined by the company allowing the credit and is agreed upon by both the company allowing the credit and the company receiving it. Trade credit can also be an essential way for businesses to finance short-term growth. Because trade credit is a form of credit with no interest, it can often be used to encourage sales.

Since trade credit puts suppliers at somewhat of a disadvantage, many suppliers use discounts when trade credits are involved to encourage early payments. A supplier may give a discount if a customer pays within a certain number of days before the due date. For example, a 2% discount if payment is received within 10 days of issuing a 30-day credit. This discount would be referred to as 2%/10 net 30 or simply just 2/10 net 30.

Trade Credit Accounting

Trade credits are accounted for by both sellers and buyers. Accounting with trade credits can differ based on whether a company uses cash accounting or accrual accounting. Accrual accounting is required for all public companies. With accrual accounting, a company must recognize revenues and expenses at the time they are transacted.

Trade credit invoicing can make accrual accounting more complex. If a public company offers trade credits it must book the revenue and expenses associated with the sale at the time of the transaction. When trade credit invoicing is involved, companies do not immediately receive cash assets to cover expenses. Therefore, companies must account for the assets as accounts receivable on their balance sheet.

With trade credit, there is the possibility of default. Companies offering trade credits also usually offer discounts, which means they can receive less than the accounts receivable balance. Both defaults and discounts can require the need for accounts receivable write-offs from defaults or write-downs from discounts. These are considered liabilities a company must expense.

Alternatively, trade credit is a useful option for businesses on the buying side. A company can obtain assets but would not need to credit cash or recognize any expenses immediately. In this way, trade credit can act like a 0% loan on the balance sheet.

RST Company produces a product that has a variable cost of $6 per unit. The company's fixed costs are $30,000. The product sells for $10 per unit. The break-even point in sales dollars is $_____________.

Answers

Answer: $75000

Explanation:

In order to solve the question, firstly we need to calculate the contribution margin ratio which will be:

= ($10 - $6) / $10

= 40%

Then, the break even sales will then be:

= Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

= $30000 / 40%

= $75000

Therefore, the break-even point in sales dollars is $75000

Ryan bought a stock three years ago for $6 a share. Today, June 22, the stock is selling for $72 a share. Ryan is afraid that the price will fall and does not want to lose his profits so he places a stop-loss order to sell at $70. The stock sells between $71 and $75 throughout the remainder of the day on June 22. On the morning of June 23, the stock opens at $9 a share based on rumors of a possible bankruptcy due to inappropriate accounting procedures. Which one of the following statements is true concerning this situation?

a. Ryan was able to sell his stock for $70 a share thereby protecting his profits.
b. Ryan's stock was sold for $9 a share causing him to lose most of his profits.
c. Ryan still owns his shares of stock since his order was never executed at the $70 price.
d. Ryan received a call from the specialist asking him what he wanted to do about his order.

Answers

Answer:

B) Ryan's stock was sold for $9 a share causing him to lose most of his profits.

Explanation:

Stop loss order means the limit the loss to the extent investor has opted. Since Ryan placed a stop loss order at $70, so, when the price of the stock starts at $9, the stock would be sold at $9 because it is the next available price to what he placed a stop loss order.

So, the Answer is Ryan stock is sold for $9 a share causing him to lose most of his profits.

The nominal interest rate in the U.S. is 5% and the nominal interest rate in Canada is 3%. The spot value of the U.S. dollar is 1 ($/Canadian dollar) and the forward rate is 1.2 ($/Canadian dollar). Which of the following is not true?A. The interest parity condition does not hold.
B. The dollar is likely to appreciate in spot markets.
C. Money will flow into the Canada.
D. The dollar is trading at a forward discount.

Answers

Answer: B. The dollar is likely to appreciate in spot markets.

Explanation:

First find the forward rate using the forward rate formula:

Forward rate = Spot rate * (1 + Interest rate of Canada) / (1 + Interest rate of US)

= 1 * ( 1 + 3%) / (1 + 5%)

= 0.980952

= 0.98

The forward rate according to the formula is less than the forward rate that is trading.

This means that the U.S. dollar is trading at a forward discount and when this happens, the dollar will not appreciate in the spot markets because it is scheduled to be discounted in the forward market.

• Revenue generation for government: Through the imposition of tariffs and other policies by the government to protect domestic industries, the government also generates revenue which can be used to improve the economy.

I believe the arguments are valid and I support them.

The new office supply discounter, Paper Clips, Etc. (PCE), sells a certain type of ergonomically correct office chair. The annual holding cost per unit is $25, annual demand is 180,000 chairs, and the ordering cost is $150 per order. The lead time is 5 days. Because demand is variable (standard deviation of daily demand is 30 chairs), PCE has decided to establish a customer service level of 96%. The store is open 300 days per year.

Required:
a. What is the optimal order quantity?
b. What is the safety stock?
c. What is the reorder point?
d. What is the optimal annual total inventory cost?

Answers

Solution :

Given data:

Annual demand, D = 180,000 chairs

Ordering cost, F = $ 150 per order

Annual holding cost per unit, C = $25

Lead time of order, L = 5 days

Standard deviation of order during lead time = 30

a). The optimal order quantity

   [tex]$=\sqrt{\frac{2FD}{C}}$[/tex]

  [tex]$=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 150 \times 180,000 }{25}}$[/tex]

 = 1469.69

 = 1470 (rounding off)

b). The Z value of the customer service of 90%,

i.e., the probability of 0.90 as per normal distribution table = 1.29

∴  Safety stock = Z value x standard deviation of order during lead time

                         = 1.29 x 30

                        = 38.7

                        = 39 (rounding off)

c). The reorder point

 [tex]= \text{Average demand per day} x \text{Demand lead time (day) + Safety stock}[/tex]

 [tex]$=\frac{\text{annual demand}}{\text{300 days}} \times \text{ Demand Lead time (days) + Safety stock}$[/tex]

 [tex]$=\frac{180,000}{300} \times 5 + 39$[/tex]

 = 3039

d). The optimal annual total inventory cost

  [tex]$\text{= Annual ordering cost + Annual Inventory carrying cost}$[/tex]

  [tex]$\text{= Number of orders} \times \text{Ordering cost + Average inventory} \times }$[/tex] [tex]$\text{Inventory holding cost per unit per year}$[/tex]

  [tex]$=\frac{\text{annual demand}}{\text{optimum order quantity}} \times \text{ordering cost+}\frac{\text{optimum ordering cost}}{2}\times C$[/tex]

  [tex]$=\frac{180,000}{1470} \times 150 + \frac{1470}{2} \times 25$[/tex]

 = 18367.34 + 18375

 = $ 36,742.34

Answers

Answer: $251758.53

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question,

Total lease liability = $280,000

Then, the balance in the lease payable account when the first lease payment takes place on January 1, 2021 will be:

= $280,000 - $16,427

= $263573

The, the interest that is included in the lease payment that's made on April 1, 2021 Will be:

= $263573 x 7% x 1/4

= $4612.53

Then, the principal amount that's included in the lease payment made on April 1, 2021 will be:

= $16,427 - $4612.53

= $11814.47

Therefore, the balance in the lease payable account after the April 1, 2021, lease payment will be:

= $263573 - $11814.47

= $251758.53

A farmer who owns the means to produce wealth (farm equipment, land, cattle, etc.) and employs individuals to work on the farm but has also experienced the hardship that comes with farming can be said to be experiencing a ____________ (three word term).

Answers

Answer:

Sustainable agriculture farming.

Explanation:

In Agriculture, there are various farming techniques adopted by farmers for the growth and development of their crops. An effective and efficient agricultural technique would have a significant impact on the level of productivity attained by the farmers and as such meeting the unending requirements or needs (demands) of the consumers.

Basically, there are various agricultural techniques used in farming and these includes;

I. Mixed farming.

II. Arable farming.

III. Pastoral farming.

IV. Bush fallowing.

V. Shifting cultivation.

VI. Nomadic herding.

VII. Subsistence farming.

Sustainable agriculture farming can be defined as a farming model that is typically aimed at providing basic human needs such as food, fiber, textiles, etc., without compromising or jeopardizing the ability of future generations to create agricultural solutions to their own basic needs.

This ultimately implies that, when the production of textiles, fiber and food to meet the present human needs deplete the natural base, there is a direct decrease in the ability of future generations to produce to meet their own basic needs regardless of having the means to produce wealth such as farm equipment, land, cattle, labor, etc.

Mary Kate: $103,528.15

Ashley: $135,377.97

Dakota: $166,294.24

Elle: $187,409.00

Explanation:

Mary Kate

First, calculate the future value of investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $3,900 x ( 1 + 3% )^5 - 1 / 3% = $20,705.63

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $20,705.63 / 20% = $103,528.15

Ashley

First, calculate the future value of investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $4,900 x ( 1 + 5% )^5 - 1 / 5% = $27,075.59

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $27,075.59 / 20% = $135,377.97

Dakota

First, calculate the future value of the investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $5,900 x ( 1 + 6% )^5 - 1 / 6% = $33,258.85

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $33,258.85 / 20% = $166,294.24

Elle

First, calculate the future value of the investment

Future value of Investment = Annuity payment x ( 1 + Interst rate )^numbers of years - 1 / Interst rate = $5,900 x ( 1 + 12% )^5 - 1 / 12% = $37,481.80

Amount affordable = Future value of investment / Rate of down payment = $37,481.80 / 20% = $187,409.00
