Answer:

Option (c)  $7,672

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Investment amount i.e principle = $9,875

Interest rate,r = 4.8%

Time, t = 12 years

Now,

Future value = Principle ×\left( 1 + \frac{r}{n} \right)^{\Large{n \cdot t}}

n = number of times compounded per year

Future value == 9875\times\left( 1 + \frac{ 0.048 }{ 12 }\right)^{\Large{ 12 \cdot 12 }}

Future value =9875\times{ 1.004 } ^ { 144 }

Future value =9875\times1.776866

Future value = $17,546.55

Also,

Future value = Principle + Interest

Therefore,

$17,546.55 = $9,875 + Interest

or

Interest = $17,546.55 - $9,875

= 7671.55 ≈ $7,672

Hence,

Option (c)  $7,672

Kuhn Bicycle Company has been manufactring its own seats for its bicycles. The company is currently operating at 100% capacity,
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

It is cheaper to buy the seats.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The company is currently operating at 100% capacity, and variable manufacturing overhead is charged to production at the rate of 60% of direct labor cost. The direct materials and direct labor cost per unit to make the bicycle seats are $8.00 and $9.00, respectively. Normal production is 50,000 bicycles per year. A supplier offers to make the bicycle seats for $21 each. If the bicycle company accepts this offer, all variable manufacturing costs will be eliminated, but the $30,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead currently being charged to the bicycle seats will have to be absorbed by other products.

Make in house= [8 + 9 + (9*0.6)]*50,000= $1,120,000

Buy= 21*50,000= $1,050,000

It is cheaper to buy the seats.

valina [46]

The given statement " To add a pie chart, first select the data to be charted and then tap or click the Insert Pie or Doughnut Chart button (INSERT tab | Charts group) " is TRUE

Explanation:

A pie chart is a circular mathematical diagram separated into slices that display numerical proportions. The length of each piece in a pie chart is proportional to the amount it represents.

In other words, each piece of the pie is relative to the size of the party in its entirety. The whole pie is 100% whole, while the pie "slices" represent portions of the whole.

You must have a list of both the category (description of your categories) and numerical variables to construct a pie chart.

Tables can be hard to draw by hand, in particular for tricky numbers. The entire pie is 360 degrees, making drawing 13.9% or 56% difficult. With the range of computer programs, it is not really important that you can create pie charts.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer: $2,845.57965

The principal to be deposited semiannually would be $2,845.58 (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Explanation:

Using compound formula below

A = p (1 + r/n)^nt

A =amount= $3,300

r = rate = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05

n = number of compounding rate (semiannually) =2 interest payments a year

t = time in years= 3

3,300 = p (1 + 0.05/2)^2(3)

3,300 = p (1 + 0.025)^6

3,300 = p (1.025)^6

3,300 = 1.15969342p

Divide both sided by 1.15969342

p = $(3,300/1.15969342)

p = $2,845.57965

p ≈$2,845.58 rounded to 2 decimal places.

Candace owns a small business that is financially struggling. In order to respond to economic pressures, Candace is now obliged
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The answer is both: B) organizational change or competition over resources

Explanation:

Organizational change usually takes place due to external or internal pressures. In this specific case, Candace´s business is not doing well, probably her sales are down. We don´t know the reason why, I can guess probably more competition, but we know she must act fast.    

Money is the most scarce resource of all. So if money is not flowing in like Candace would expect she must be able to make difficult decisions. Laying off a worker (out of how many?) is usually seen as a bad sign for the rest of the employees. Reducing labor days (Sundays) will probably also affect the rest of the employees negatively because they will simply work less hours and get paid less.

But the bottom line is Candace as the owner (probably also the manager) has to make the decisions that are necessary for her business to continue. It would always be worst for everyone involved (Candace and her employees) if they go out of business. That way everyone loses.

At this point Candace will need to communicate with her employees and let them know how bad the situation is and the necessary steps to be taken. Her actions will be unpopular but its her job to convince her employees that its for everyone´s best interest. Well, for everyone except the one employee already fired. Leaders must show up in difficult times and make tough choices.
