Answer:

The endowment fund is not satisfied with the advisor's performance

Explanation:

Judging from a nominal interest rate perspective where return expected of an investment comprises of real rate of return and an extra return which is a compensation for inflation rate in the economy,the endowment fund is not satisfied with performance of the advisor.

The satisfactory rate of return that would be expected of the advisor is computed below:

nominal interest rate=real rate+inflation rate

real rate is 8.2%

inflation rate is 2.9%

nominal interest rate=8.2%+2.9%

                                  =11.10%

marin [14]

Answer:

$11,560

$5666.661

Explanation:

Given the following :

Bill received from accountant = $17,000

This year's marginal tax rate = 32%

Next year's marginal tax rate = 37%

After tax return on investment = 11%

After tax cost of bill is paid in December :

Billed amount * this year's tax rate

$17,000 * ( 1 - 0.32)

= $17,000 * 0.68

= $11,560

B) After tax cost of bill was paid in January:

Billed amount * next year's tax rate * PV factor

From the present value factor table;

PV factor (1 years, 11%) = 0.9009

Hence,

$17,000 * 0.37 * 0.9009 = $5666.661

Sunland Company

Date            Particulars        Units          Unit Cost          Total Cost

July 1      Beginning inventory 72            $19                       $1368

7 July                 Purchases        252            $20                      5040

<u>22 July             Purchases          36               $22                    792   </u>

<u> Total  </u><u>                                       360                                                 $7200 </u>

30 June  Ending Inventory 120 units

Average Cost= $7200/360= $20

Ending inventory at average cost= 120 units at $20= $2400

We divide the total cost with the total number of units to get  the average cost. We multiply the average cost with the ending inventory units to get the vale of ending inventory at average cost.

Which of the following instances will total revenue or receipts decline? Group of answer choices Price falls and demand is elast
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Price rises and demand is elastic

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.

If Price falls and demand is elastic, total revenue would increase because Quanitity demanded would rise.

If Price falls and demand is unit elastic, there would be a proportionate change in quantity demanded and total revenue would remain unchanged.

If Price rises and demand is elastic, total revenue would fall because Quanitity demanded would fall.

If Price rises and demand is inelastic, total revenue would rise because there would be no change in quantity demanded
