Answer:

The answer is

0.615percent for semi annual

Annual YTM =1.2 percent

Explanation:

The formula for determining the Yield-to-Maturity(YTM) is:

PV = PMT/(1+r)^1 + PMT/(1+r)^2 .......PMT/(1+r)^1 PMT + FV/(1+r)^n

We are to calculate Yield-to-Maturity(YTM) which is the rate of return on the bond to an investor.

Using a Financial calculator. Input the following:

N = (17 years - 2 years) x 2 = 30

1/Y = ?

PV = 97percent x $1,000($970)

PMT = 10.1/2 = 5.05 (semi- annual)

FV = $1,000

1/Y = 0.615(semi annual)

Annual YTM = 0.615 x 2

=1.2 percent

Nady [450]

Answer:

Average hourly output is 13.14 pieces.

Explanation:

Number of machines at the bank N = 5

Average service time T = 26 min

Machine runs for an Average R = 74 min

Number of servers M = 1

Service Factor, X = T / (T+R)

= 26 / (26+74)

= 0.26

Efficiency Factor, F = 0.683

Average Number of machine running A = N * F * (1 - X)

= 5 * 0.683 * (1 - 0.26)

= 2.52

Output rate = 26 * (A / N)

= 26 * ( 2.52 / 5)

= 13.14 per hour.

At the beginning of Year 2 , Benson Company had beginning inventory of 150 units that cost $200 each. During Year 2, Benson made
lawyer [7]

Answer:

$63,600

Explanation:

Th weighted average method is one that ensures that all the various prices at which inventory is bought is considered to determining the price at which inventory is issued.

Amount of Inventory at

= (150 × 200) + (500 × 210) + (350 × 220) = $212,000

Total quantity (before sales) = 150 + 500 + 350 = 1000 units

Weight average cost per unit = $212,000/1000 = $212

The 700 units sold will be value at $212 per unit.

Hence total cost of goods sold = $212 × 700 = $148,400

Closing inventory amount = $212,000 - $148,400

= $63,600

2019,Do you think leadership style is fixed and unchangeable, or can leaders be flexible and adaptable with respect to style? Wh
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

No. I do not think leadership style is fixed.

Explanation:

There are various leadership styles used by leaders in organizations depending on the type of job, the category of employees, the situation, or the organizational goal the leader is trying to achieve.

Some of these leadership styles include; bureaucratic, democratic, autocratic, servant and transactional leadership styles.

It is best for leaders to be flexible and know what style to adopt depending on the particular situation.

For example, in <u>situations where employees are inexperienced</u>, a leader should choose a leadership style (such as bureaucratic leadership) where he gives instructions and directs the employees on what to do.

If on the other hand, such a l<u>eader is in charge of experienced employees</u>, then he can adopt the democratic style of leadership, where the employees are allowed to give inputs and have freedom to make certain decisions.

A​ check-processing center uses exponential smoothing to forecast the number of incoming checks each month. The number of checks
Liula [17]

Answer:

a. 41.6 million

b. 42.28 million

Explanation:

A) GIven

forecast in june = Sjune = 42 million

Checks recived in june = Xjune = 40 million

Smoothing constant = a = 0.2

So for july

Sjuly = a*Xjune + (1-a)*Sjune

=0.2*40 + (1-0.2)*42 million

=8+33.6 = 41.6 million

B) forecast in july = Sjuly = 41.6 million

Checks recived in july = Xjuly = 45 million

Smoothing constant = a = 0.2

So for August

Saugust = a*Xjuly + (1-a)*Sjuly

=0.2*45 + (1-0.2)*41.6 million

=9+33.28 = 42.28 million

<em>Note: This uses an exponential smoothing to forecast the results, but from the number of checks recived we see that it increases linearly. So we need a linear forecasting method .</em>

Bob Burgers allocates manufacturing overhead to jobs based on direct labor hours. The company has the following estimated costs
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per direct labor hour will be $32

Explanation:

The formula to compute the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate  is shown below:

= (Estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (Estimated direct labor hours)

where,

Estimated manufacturing overhead =  Wages of factory janitors + Utilities for factory + Rent on factory building

= $39,900 + $17,000 + $13,900

= $70,800

And, the estimated direct labor hours is 2,200 machine hours

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $70,800 ÷ 2,200 machine hours

= $32.18
