Answer:
7.5%.
Explanation:
This question can be solved by using the formula below;
The trial rate is required to achieve the company's goal = ( number of new notebooks that the company wants to sell the following year) ÷ awareness rate × units per trial × ACV × number in target market.
From the Question above, we have the following information which is going to be slot in to the formula above and use in solving this question;
=> The number of new notebooks that the company wants to sell the following year = 30,000,000.
=> The awareness rate = 78%.
=> ACV% = 51%.
=> The percentage of people that will repurchase 5 notebooks per year = 21%.
=> The total number of notebook consumers in the target market = 200,000,000 .
=>'' The Total fixed costs to Leaf Paper Company to manufacture this new notebook = $11,000,000''
=> The variable costs per Notebook = $2.56.
Thus, slotting in the values respectively, we have;
Trial rate = 30,000,000 ÷ (0.78 × 5 × 0.51 × 200,000,000).
Trial rate = 0.07541478129713423.
Thus, 0.07541478129713423 × 100 = 7.5%.
Trial rate = 7.5%.

Troy will receive $7,500 at the end of Year 2. At the end of the following two years, he will receive $9,000 and $12,500, respectively. What is the future value of these cash flows at the end of Year 6 if the interest rate is 8%?a. $36.121.08.b. $38,418.80.c. $32,90767.d. $39,010.77.e. $33,445.44.
Answer:
Total FV= $36,121.08
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cash flows:
Cf2= $7,500
Cf3= $9,000
Cf4= $12,500
Interest rate= 8%
To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula on each cash flow:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
Cf2= 7,500*(1.08^4)= 10,203.67
Cf3= 9,000*(1.08^3)= 11,337.41
Cf4= 12,500*(1.08^2)= 14,580
Total FV= $36,121.08
Suppose Shaan invested just $10,000 of his own money and had a $90,000 mortgage with an interest rate of 8.5 percent. After three years, he sold the property for $120,000.
(a) What is his gross profit?
(b) What is his net profit or loss? (Input the amount as a positive value.)
(c) What is the rate of return on investment? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. $20,000
b. -$2,950
c. -29.50%
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Gross Profit is
= Sale value of Property - Invested amount - Mortgage amount
= $120,000 - $10,000 - $90,000
= $20,000
b. Net Profit
= Gross profit - number of years × mortgage amount × rate of interest
= $20,000 - 3 × $90,000 × 8.5%
= -$2,950
And,
c) Rate of return is
= Net profit ÷ invested amount
= -$2,950 ÷ $10,000
= -29.50%
What is the minimum number of integers that you must pick between 0 and 9 (inclusive), such that two of them add up to 9?
Answer:
6
Explanation:
there are 5 different possible combinations of two integers that equal 9 when you add them together:
(0,9)(1,8)(2,7) (3,6)(4,5)The worst case scenario is that you choose 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, and adding any pair will not result in 9. So you will need to choose a sixth number and whichever that number is (either 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9), you will be able to add it to another one to get 9.
The best case scenario is that you choose only two and you are lucky enough to get a combination that works.
A building was purchased for $68,000. The asset has an expected useful life of eight years and depreciation expense each year is $5,000 using the straight-line method. What is the residual value of the building?A. $13,625 B. $8,625 C. $37,000.
The options provided are incorrect. The correct answer is given below.
Answer:
Residual value = $28000
Explanation:
The straight line method of charging depreciation is a method that charges a constant depreciation expense throughout the useful life of the asset. The formula to calculate the depreciation expense under the straight line method is as follows,
Depreciation expense = (Cost - Residual value) / Estimated useful life of the asset
Plugging in the values for depreciation expense, cost and estimated useful life, we can calculate the residual value to be,
5000 = (68000 - Residual value) / 8
5000 * 8 = 68000 - Residual value
40000 + Residual value = 68000
Residual value = 68000 - 40000
Residual value = $28000
Suppose that instead of paying per hour, a moving company offers a flat rate of $1,200 for movers plus a truck for an eight hour day. If you hired this moving company and used them for the entire eight hours, how much consumer surplus would you gain?
Answer:
the first part of the question is missing, so I looked for a similar one (see attached image):
the cost of hiring a moving crew for 8 hours = $250 per hour x 8 hours = $2,000
the competing company offered you a deal worth $1,200
since you expect to use the moving crew during the whole 8 hours, you will gain = $2,000 - $1,200 = $800 in consumer surplus
Consumer surplus is the difference between what a consumer (in this case you) are willing to pay for a good or service and the actual price of the good or service. Consumer should be willing to consumer a good or service as long as the consumer surplus is ≥ 0.
800 dollars of consumer surplus would be earned.
We can arrive at this answer as follows:
You must calculate the cost of hiring the team. This will be done with the following calculation:[tex]250*8=2,000[/tex]
In this case, we can consider that the cost of hiring the team for eight hours of work will be [tex]2,000[/tex] dollars.
Then, we can calculate the difference between the team's hiring price and the $1,200 that the competitor offered. This will be done with the following calculation:
[tex]2,000-1,200=800[/tex]
With that, we can say that the consumer surplus is equal to 800 dollars.
The question above is incomplete. The full question is in the attached image.

b. Borrowed $3,000 cash from the bank.
c. Adjusted the accounting records to recognize accrued interest expense on the bank note. The note, issued on September 1, Year 1, had a one-year term and an 10 percent annual interest rate.
Required:
a. What is the amount of interest payable at December 31, 2016?
b. What is the amount of interest expense in 2016?
c. What is the amount of interest paid in 2016?
Answer:
Darby Company
a. The amount of interest payable at December 31, 2016 is $100.
b. The amount of interest expense in 2016 is $100.
c. The amount of interest paid in 2016 is $0.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Notes Payable to the bank = $3,000
Interest rate = 10%
Period of note = 1 year
Issue date = September 1
Interest on the note = $3,000 * 10% * 4/12 = $100
b) The interest payable in 2016 equals the interest expense for 2016. From the calculations, there is no payment for interest expense in 2016, that is why the interest payable equals the interest expense.

Suppose you have $10,000 in cash and you decide to borrow another $10,000 at a(n)6% interest rate to invest in the stock market. You invest the entire $20,000 in an exchange-traded fund (ETF)with a 10% expected return and a 20% volatility. Assume that the ETF you invested in returns -10%. Then the realized return on your investment is closest to ________.
A)-18%
B)-10%
C)-23%
D)-26%
Answer:
D)-26%
Explanation:
The computation of the realized return on your investment is shown below:
= (Rate of return × total investment) - (interest paid)
= (-10% × $20,000) - (6% × $1,000)
= (-$2000 - $600)
= -$2,600
Now the Rate of return is
=(-$2,600 ÷ $10,000)
= -26%
hence, the realized return on your investment is -26%
Therefore the correct option is D.

What's the future value of $55,000 after 20 years if the appropriate interest rate is 3%, compounded semiannually?
Answer:
$99,771
Explanation:
future value = present value x (1 + interest rate)ⁿ
present value = $55,000interest rate = 3% / 2 = 1.5% semiannualn = 20 years x 2 = 40 semiannual periodsfuture value = $55,000 x (1 + 1.5%)⁴⁰ = $55,000 x 1.81402 = $99,771
When interest is compounded semiannually, the effective interest rate is slightly higher than when it is compounded annually.
effective interest rate = (1 + 3%/2)² - 1 = 3.0225%
If the general level of interest rates in the economy moves up, then investors will require a _____ rate of return on securities, and, in general, stock prices should _____ , ceteris paribus.
A. lower, increase
B. higher, decline
C. higher, increase
D. lower, decline
Answer:
B. higher, decline
Explanation:
Monetary policy can be defined as the actions (macroeconomic policies) adopted and undertaken by the central bank of a particular country to control the money supply and interest rates so as to boost or enhance economic growth. The central bank uses monetary policies to manage inflation, economic growth through long-term interest rates and level of unemployment in a country. In order to boost economic growth, monetary policy is used to increase money supply (liquidity) while it is also used to prevent inflation by reducing money supply.
If the general level of interest rates in the economy moves up, then investors will require a higher rate of return on securities such as bonds, and, in general, stock prices should decline because they are less volatile, ceteris paribus (all things being equal).
It is estimated that the annual maintenance cost of a statue erected in front of a public building in a state capital would be $1,000. Assuming an interest rate of 4% compounded annually, determine the capitalized cost for maintaining the statue.
Answer:
$24,630.54
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the capitalized cost for maintaining the statue
First step is to calculate the Effective interest rate
Effective interest rate = (1+.04/4) ^4 -1
Effective interest rate= 0.04060
Last step is to calculat the capitalized cost for maintaining the statue using this formula
Capitalized cost =Annual maintenance cost /Effective interest rate
Let plug in the formula
Capitalized cost = ($1,000/0.04060)
Capitalized cost = $24,630.54
Therefore the capitalized cost for maintaining the statue will be $24,630.54

Investment in an equipment project yields a net present worth of (–$150) at 15% interest rate and $95 at 20% interest rate. Calculate the internal rate of return on this investment.
Answer:
18.067%
Explanation:
Let , i = 15% , then NPV = -$150 ,
When i = 20%, NPV = $95 A
At IRR , let the NPV = 0
Now, using the linear interpolation method we get
20% - 15%/ IRR -15 = 95-(-150) / 0-(-150)
20% - 15%/ IRR -15 = 245 / 150
5 / IRR -15 = 1.63
1/IRR -15 = 0.326
1/0.326 = IRR - 15
3.067 = IRR -15
IRR = 3.067+ 15
IRR = 18.067%

Mounts Corporation produces and sells two products. In the most recent month, Product I05L had sales of $32,000 and variable expenses of $10,880. Product P42T had sales of $45,000 and variable expenses of $18,380. And the fixed expenses of the entire company were $46,070. The break-even point in sales dollars for the entire company is closest to
A. $75,330
B. $74,306
C. $30,930
D. $46,070
Answer:
B. $74,306
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate contribution margin for both.
Product 105L
Sales $32,000
Less variable expenses ($10,880)
Contribution margin $21,120
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales
= $21,120 ÷ $32,000
= 66%
Product P42T
Sales $45,000
Less variable expenses ($18,380)
Contribution margin $26,620
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales
= $26,620 ÷ $45,000
= 59.2%
Total sales for both products $77,000
Less Total variable expenses ($29,260)
Total contribution margin $47,740
Total contribution margin ratio $47,740 ÷ $77,000 = 62%
Fixed expenses for both companies = $46,070
Therefore,
Break even point in sales for both companies = Total fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin ratio
= $46,070 ÷ 62%
= $74,306.45

Spiro Corp. uses the sum-of-the-years' digits method to depreciate equipment purchased in January year 1 for $20,000. The estimated salvage value of the equipment is $2,000 and the estimated useful life is four years. What should Spiro report as the asset's carrying amount as of December 31, year 3
Answer:
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3= $3,800
Explanation:
Depreciable amount = Cost - Salvage Value
Depreciable amount = 20,000-2,000
Depreciable amount = $18,000
Sum of years’ digits = 1+2+3+4 = 10
Depreciation for Year 1 = 18,000*4/10 = 7,200
Depreciation for Year 2 = 18,000*3/10 = $5,400
Depreciation for Year 3 = 18,000*2/10 = $3,600
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3 = Purchase cost - Depreciation
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3 = $20,000 - $7,200 - $5,400 - $3,600
Carrying value on Dec 31, Year 3= $3,800
