Answer:

Explanation:

We will apply the annuity formula because payments are made equally at year end for 40 years. we would have applied compound formula if total payment was made at year 40.

Total Payment = $40 mill.

Annual Payment = 2 mill.

Total time for payments =20

Ir = 8%

A)

Present Value of innings applying annuity formula

P=R(1-(1+i)^-n)/i

P=2(1-(1+8%)^-20)/8%

P=2(1-0.2145)/8%

P=2*9.8181

P=19.6362

B)

Present Value of innings applying annuity formula with Advance payment

Value of the first payment is same because it is paid at day 1 so present value is same i.e $2 mill.

Present Value of other 19 Payments with 19 years time from today

Applying the same formula

P=R(1-(1+i)^-n)/i

P=2(1-(1+8%)^-19)/8%

P=2(1-0.2317)/8%

P=2*9.6035

P=19.207

Present value of 1st payment at Year.0 = 2 mill

Present value of 19 payment at Year.0 = 19.207

Total Value =2+19.207 = $21.02 mill

A random telephone survey of 1021 adults (aged 18 and older) was conducted by Opinion Research Corporation on behalf of Complete
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

a) 67% of filers surveyed plans to file their taxes electronically.

b) 613 people will use the professionals to prepare their taxes.

Explanation:

Given that;

survey shows 684 of 1021 people would most likely file electronically.

a)

to estimate the percentage of all taxpayers who file electronically, we say;

(684 / 1021) * 100% = 0.6699 = 0.67

therefore 67% of filers surveyed plans to file their taxes electronically.

b)

Given that 60% ( 0.6 ) said they would us professionals, now to find how many people did it this way, we say;

( 60 / 100) * 1021 = 612.6 = 613 (we are talking about number of person)

so 613 people will use the professionals to prepare their taxes.

Wehrs Corporation has received a request for a special order of 9,700 units of product K19 for $47.20 each. The normal selling p
Grace [21]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

We can compute the profitability of this special order by accounting for the incremental costs,

Sales (9700 * 47.20) = $457,840

Incremental Variable costs = (18 + 7.30 + 4.50 + 6.90) = $36.7/unit

The incremental variable costs include the $6.9 for modifications and does not include 7.4 which is a part of non incremental fixed costs.

Profits from this special order are as follows,

Sales                                                   457,840

Less:

Variable costs (36.7*9700)                355,990

Incremental Fixed costs                    46,700

Profits from this special order           55,150

Since the order has positive contribution and as it yields profits, it should be accepted.

Hope that helps.

Ariana is the CEO of a corporation that hires nonunion labor. According to the theory of efficiency wages, if she decides to pay
viva [34]

Answer:

the profits of her firm might increase.

Explanation:

Efficient wage theory postulates that productivity will increase as a result of increased wages. This is because the employee is more motivated to work when they are earning higher wages.

Efficiency wages are higher than the equillibrum wage paid in the industry.

Managers favour efficient wage payment because it reduces staff turnover and attracts more productive employees to the company.

On the other hand the manager can also cut down salary and employ more workers to perform the task.

A higher discount rate applied to a given flow of returns in the future (e.g., $5,000 at the end of 5 years, $10,000 at the end
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The correct option is B,decrease.

Explanation:

In calculating present value , the future value is divided by the discounting factor,hence, the higher the discounting rate, the higher the discounting factor.

Besides,since the relationship between future value and discounting factor is that of numerator-denominator relationship, it would be logical to say the higher the discounting factor , the lower the output of the mathematical operation,present value and vice versa.

From the foregoing, it is very clear a higher discount rate triggers a lower present value and vice versa
