Answer:

Desert Company

Historical cost of Land:

Purchase price = $1,350,000

Tearing down Buildings = $91,500 $(100,000 - 8,500)

Title Investigation = $5,250

Title Insurance = $3,600

Total = $1,450,350

Explanation:

The historical cost of land is the initial price paid to purchase the land and any other costs incurred in order to put the land to use, except building costs.

The other costs, including Architect's fee, Liability Insurance during construction, excavation cost, contractor fee, and landscaping cost are costs incurred for the building and not for the land.

b. Capital Recovery Schedule:

Year   Beginning            Payment     Interest        Principal         Ending

           Amount                                      Paid             Paid            Balance

1          $20,000          $-5,904.56    $1,400        $4,504.56   $15,495.44

2        $15,495.44       $-5,904.56    $1,084.68   $4,819.88    $10,675.56

3.       $10,675.56       $-5,904.56    $747.29      $5,157.27     $5,518.29

4.       $5,518.29         $-5,904.56    $386.27      $5,518.29    $0

Explanation:

Ian's loan to his friend = $20,000

Interest rate = 7%

Payback period = 4 years

Repayment = annual at the end of each year.

Ian can retrieve $5,904.56 at the end of each period to reach the future value of $20,000.00 and total interest of $3,618.25.

Using an online financial calculator:

N (Number of Periods) 4.000

I/Y (Interest Rate) 7.000%

PMT (Periodic Payment) $-5,904.56

Starting Investment $20,000.00

Total Interest $3,618.25

Suppose a Google bond will pay $4,500 ten years from now. If the going interest rate on safe 10-year bonds is 4.25%, how much is
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The bond is worth $2,968 today

Explanation:

In order to know "how much is the bond worth today", we need to calculate the present value (PV) of the bond.

Google bond will pay $4,500 ten years from now, it means the future value (FV) is $4,500

Tenor is 10 years

Discounting rate is 4.25% pa

PV = FV/((1+ rate)^ tenor)= $4,500/(1+4.25%)^10 = $2,968

During a recent 30-day period, the Squish restaurant sold 600 Ocean Delights at a price of $6.45. During the next 30-day period,
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

-4.3; inelastic

Explanation:

Initial price = $6.45

Initial quantity demanded = 600

New price = $6.95

New quantity demanded = 400

Percentage change in Quantity demanded:

= (Change in quantity demanded ÷ Initial quantity demanded) × 100

= [(400 - 600) ÷ 600] × 100

= (-200 ÷ 600) × 100

= 0.3333 × 100

= -33.33%

Percentage change in price:

= (Change in price ÷ Initial price) × 100

= [($6.95 - $6.45) ÷ $6.45] × 100

= ($0.5 ÷ $6.45) × 100

= 0.0775 × 100

= 7.75%

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand is as follows:

= Percentage change in quantity demanded ÷ Percentage change in price

= -33.33 ÷ 7.75

= -4.3

Hence, the price elasticity of demand is inelastic.
