Answer:

The most you can pay for the pitcher is $17.32

Explanation:

A mark up is a percentage that is always applied on the cost to come up at a required gain over cost. The cost is always taken to be 100% when apply a mark up on cost.

If the mark up is of 27% and cost is 100% then a selling price of 22 will be equal to cost + markup.

Let cost be x.

Selling price = Cost + Mark up

22 = 100% * x + 27% * x

22 = 1x + 0.27x

22 = 1.27 x

22/1.27 = x

x = $17.3228 rounded off to $17.32

AveGali [126]

Answer:

The answer is 8.90%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The bond face value =$1000

Annual coupon rate =10%

Maturity rate =12 years

Price sold at =1080

Now we find the component cost of debt for use

Thus

The debt (cost) = Yield to maturity

So

YTM = Annual interest payment + [(Face value - Present price / Years to maturity] / [0.6(Price of bond) + 0.4 (principal payment)]

= $100 + [($1000 - $1080) / 12] / [0.6 * $1080 + 0.4 * $1000]

= $100 - 6.67 / $1048

= $93.33 / $1048

= 0.0890 or 8.90%

Therefore the debt for use is 8.90%

A venture has net sales of $400,000, cost of goods sold of $200,000, operating expenses (selling, general, and administrative) o
Sphinxa [80]

Given:

Net sales = $400000

Cost of goods sold = $200,000

Operating expenses = $100,000

Interest expenses = $50,000

To find:

The operating profit margin

Solution:

To calculate the operating profit margin, first we have to find the operating profit.

Subtract your total operating expenses from gross profit to calculate operating profit.

That is, \text{Operating profit}=\text{Sales (Revenue) - Cost of goods sold - Operating expenses}\Rightarrow \$400000-\$200000-\$100000=\$100000

Divide operating profit by gross revenue to calculate operating profit margin.

\text{Operating profit margin} = \frac{\text{Operating profit}}{\text{Gross Revenue}}\times100

\Rightarrow\frac{100000}{400000}\times100=25\%

Therefore, the Operating profit margin is 25%.

How do scarce resources influence you personally? What impact does this have on your financial management?
tankabanditka [31]
Scarce resources encourage me to spend time thinking about how I use the limited amount of money and materials that have so that I may use them in a matter that best guarantees that I will get the most satisfaction out of it. Since resources also include time, they also define how much I time I spend doing which activities, and steer me to put in a certain degree of work. 

Since there is a limited supply of resources, the great wheel that facilitates the cycle that these such resources use, known as money, must also be limited. How I manage my finances (money and resources). Knowing this, I am encouraged to invest such resources into more efficient outlets to attain the most powerful results out of my few resources.
