Answer: Apportionment

Explanation: Apportionment is also known as analogous estimating which is used when projects closely follow past projects in features and costs. As a result, in addition to good historical data, estimates regarding project feature, cost and duration can be made quickly, with little effort and reasonable accuracy to various segments of the current project. The method of apportionment is very common in projects that are relatively standard, but with little variation or customisation.

A bond has a face value of $1,000, a coupon of 4% paid annually, a maturity of 30 years, and a yield to maturity of 7%. What rat
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

-11.8%

Explanation:

the key to answer this question is to remember that valuation of a bond depends basically of calculating the present value of a series of cash flows, so let´s think about a bond as if you were a lender so you will get interest by the money you lend (coupon) and at the end of n years you will get back the money you lend at the beginnin (principal), so applying math we have the bond value given by:

price=\frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{1} }+ \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{2} } \frac{principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{3} }+...+\frac{principal+principal*coupon}{(1+i)^{n} }

so in this particular case that one year later there are 29 years to maturity so we have:

price=\frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{1} }+ \frac{1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{2} } \frac{1000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{3} }+...+\frac{1,000+1,000*0.04}{(1+0.08)^{30} }

price=553.6638

so as we have a higher rate the investment has the next return:

return=\frac{553.66}{627.73} -1

return=-11.8\%

Bioplus Inc. has introduced a new anti-aging cream in the market with a price that is higher than those of similar products from
netineya [11]

Answer:

late in the message, after most of the advantages of a product have been discussed.

Explanation:

The stardard procedure for introducing a higher price especially for new products is to include it after sharing the advantages of the new product.

It is essential because the core message that people or intending buyers want to hear are the benefits of the new product and how it can work better than what they have been using before.

The pricing should come at a later stage after which most of the information have been shared and not at the begining otherwise , it will scare intending buyers away due to its high price coupled with the fact that there exist similar product for other brand with lower prices in the market.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

- ($51,306)

Explanation:

Given that,

Loss of Contribution = $75,000

Fixed costs will be eliminated by dropping the CUP line = $23,694

Net loss on dropping cup line:

= Loss of contribution - Gain on fixed costs on dropping cup line

= $75,000 - $23,694

= - ($51,306)

Therefore, the net effect on dropping the cup line on net income is $(51,606).
