Answer:

$3,900

Explanation:

A speed boat bought for $13,000 depreciates at 10% per annum compounded continuously. What is its value after 7 years?

Round the answer to nearest dollar.

Amount of depreciation per annum =  13,000 x 10% = $1,300

Amount of depreciation in 7 years = 1,300 x 7 = $9,100

Value of Speed boat after 7 years = 13,000 - 9,100 = $3,900

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Ten pounds of chicken to trade for at least <u>40</u> pounds of vegetables but not more than<u> 50</u> pounds of vegetables

Explanation:

                  Vegetables        Chicken        Trade Off Ratio

John             40                     10                4:1 (40/10) or 1:0.25 (10/40)

George          25                      5                 5:1 (25/5) or 1:0.20 (5/25)

John has comparative advantage in Chicken and George has comparative advantage in Veggies because :

  • John's chicken opportunity cost, in veggies < George (4<5). George's veggies opportunity cost, in chicken < John (0.20<0.25).
  • George is more (5X) productive in veggies than chicken, than John (4X). John is less unproductive in chicken than veggies (1/4th), compared to George (1/5th).  

So,  John will sell Chicken to George & George will sell veggies to John. Gains from trade are when each get trade ratio better than their their own trade off ratio.

  • It implies: John gets >' 4 pounds veggies per chicken pound' and George gets > '0.20 pound chicken per veggie pound'.
  • Unitary method:-  '1chicken : 4veggies' = '10chickens : 40veggies' and '0.20chicken : 1veggie' = '10chickens : 50 veggies' .

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: A. the 99 principle

Explanation:

This strategy, often called "charm pricing," involves using pricing that ends in "9" and "99."

With charm pricing, the left digit is reduced from a round number by one cent. We come across this technique every time we make purchases but don’t pay attention. For example, your brain processes $3.00 and $2.99 as different values: To your brain $2.99 is $2.00, which is cheaper than $3.00.

How is this technique effective? It all boils down to how a brand converts numerical values. In 2005, Thomas and Morwitz conducted research they called "the left-digit effect in price cognition." They explained that, “Nine-ending prices will be perceived to be smaller than a price one cent higher if the left-most digit changes to a lower level (e.g., $3.00 to $2.99), but not if the left-most digit remains unchanged (e.g., $3.60 to $3.59).”

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a) 275,000 boxed per year

b) sales price of $ 11.04

c) <em> sale volume in dollars 4.830.967,74</em>

Explanation:

selling price:   $ 9.60

Variable cost:  $<u> 5.76</u>

Contribution:   $ 3.84

Contribution Ratio: 3.84 / 9.60 = 40%

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units}

1,056,000 / 3.84 = <em>275,000</em>

<em />

<em>If Variable cost increase by 15%</em>

<em>To keep contribution ratio at 40% then selling price should be:</em>

(<em>X - 5.76 x 1.15) / X = 0.40</em>

<em>X = $ 11.04</em>

To keep the same income but without changing price:

current income: (sales x contribution less fixed cost)

(390,000 x 3.84 - 1,056,000) = 441,600

contribution: <em>(9.60 - 5.76 x 1.15) / 9.60 = 0.31</em>

\frac{Fixed\:Cost + Target \: Income}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units}

<em>(1,056,000 + 441,600)/ 0.31 = </em>

<em>1.497.600‬ / 0.31 =</em><em> 4.830.967,74</em>
