Answer:

$19,215.65

Explanation:

To the determine the amount to be invested, we have to find the present value of $22,000 at 7%

P= FV ( 1 + r) ^-n

FV = Future value = $22,000

P = Present value

R = interest rate = 7%

N = number of years = 2

$22,000(1.07)^-2 = $19,215.65

I hope my answer helps you

pogonyaev

Answer:

Accounting revenue = $7,500,000

Tax revenue  = $5,000,000

Break-even is the level of sales at which the business have no profit no loss. At this point business only covers the the variable and fixed cost.

Average contribution = (Revenue from Accounting x Contribution of accounting services ) + (Revenue from Tax x Contribution of Tax services )

Average contribution = (60% x 30%) + (40% x 40%) = 18% + 16% = 34%

Revenue at break-even = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

Revenue at break-even = $4,250,000 / 34% = $12,500,000

Accounting revenue = $12,500,000 x 60% = 7,500,000

Tax revenue = $12,500,000 x 40% = 5,000,000

Ulleksa [173]

Answer: (2) invest $1,000 in each of ten companies that have justhired Fisher graduates

Explanation:

This is the better option because if you invest all the money into one company, you stand a chance of losing all your money should the company fail.

It is better to invest in 10 companies that hired Fisher graduates. Why?

Diversification.

Diversification is investing in multiple investment vehicles to hedge your investments and ensure that you do not lose it all if one or a few investment go awry. By investing in 10 companies, you would be practicing diversification which would ensure that you do not lose it all on 1 company.

You also stand a chance to make more profit if a couple of those companies outperform your estimates.

Please do react or comment if you need any clarification or if the question was right so that you may help the next person. Thank you.
