A firm pays Pam $40 per hour to assemble personal computers. Each day, Pam can assemble 4 computers if she works 1 hour, 7 compu

ters if she works 2 hours, 9 computers if she works 3 hours, and 10 computers if she works 4 hours. Pam cannot work more than 4 hours day. Each computer consists of a motherboard, a hard drive, a case, a monitor, a keyboard, and a mouse. The total cost of these parts is $600 per computer. What is the marginal cost of producing the computers that Pam can assemble during her 2nd hour of work

Answer:

$1,840

Explanation:

In order to calculate the Marginal cost of producing the computers in 2nd hour of work, we need to add the marginal cost of computer and marginal cost of wage in the 2nd hour of work.

MC = MC(computers) + MC(wage)

MC = $1,800(w) + $40

MC = $1,840

Working

MC (computers ) = 3 x 600$ = $1,800

                hour        computers assembled

                    1st                        4

                    2nd                      7

If pam works 2 hours she can assemble 7 computers but she already assembled 4 computers in 1st hour.

So the 2nd-hour computers will be 3 ( 7 - 4) computers.

The seabury Corporation has a current ratio of 3.5 and an acid-test ratio of 2.8. The Corporations current assets consist of cas
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is A

Explanation:

The current liabilities is computed as:

Current Assets (CA) = Quick assets (QA)+ Inventory (I)

CA = QA + $49,000

Acid test ratio = Quick assets / Current Liabilities (CL)

2.8 = QA / CL

QA = 2.8 × CL                              

Current Ratio (CR) = CA / CL

3.5 = CA / CL

Putting CA = QA + Inventory

3.5 = ( QA + $49,000) / CL

Now, Putting QA = 2.8 × CL

So,

3.5 = [( 2.8 × CL ) + $49,000] / CL

3.5 = 2.8 CL / CL + $49,000 / CL

3.5 = 2.8 + ($49,000 / CL)

3.5 - 2.8 = $49,000 / CL

0.7 = $49,000 / CL

CL = $49,000 / 0.7

CL = $70,000

asambeis [7]

Answer:

1) none of the above  $3828.57 ( E )

2) $1143 ( c )

3)  $24571 ( A )

4)  $17142.86 ( E )

5) 12% ( B )

6) $410 ( B )

7) $2744.95 ( f )

8) $17,489 ( c )

9) $24282.36 ( F )

10) 867

Explanation:

1)  The annual after-tax net returns

net income = cash flow - depreciation

                 = $10500 - \frac{cost of equipment}{estimated life}  =   10500 - (40000/7) = $4785.71

calculate the annual net after tax returns = net income * (1 - Tax rate ) = 4785 * (0.80) = $3828.57

2) Tax savings from depreciation

Tax savings from depreciation = Depreciation amount * Tax rate

                                                   = (\frac{equipment cost}{estimated life} ) * Tax rate

                                                  = (40000/7) * 0.2 = $1142.86 ≈ $1143

3) After tax terminal value in three years

Sale value = $25000,

Book value = 40000 - ( 5714.29 * 3 ) = $22857.13

Gain on sale = sale value - book value = $2142.87

tax rate = gain on sale * tax rate = 2142.87 * 0.2 = $428.57

Terminal value = sales value - tax rate = 25000 - 428.57 ≈ $24571

4) Accumulated depreciation over the three years

= depreciation amount * 3 years

=5714.29 * 3 = $17142.86

5) After tax discount rate

= discount rate * (1 - tax rate )

= 15% * 0.80 = 12%

6) Present value of the after-tax net returns

SOLUTION attached below

7) Present value tax savings from depreciation

= Tax savings from depreciation / ( 1+r)^n  note ; n = 3

= $1142.86 / ( 1 + 0.12 )^3 = $2744.95

8) present value of the after-tax terminal value

Pv of terminal value = Terminal value / ( 1 + r ) ^n

                                = $24571.43 / ( 1 + 0.12 ) ^3 = $17,489

9) Net present value

= net cash flows / ( 1 + r ) ^n

= 34114.29 / ( 1 + 0.12) ^3

= $34114.29 /  1.4049 = $24282.36

Sergio [31]

Answer:

P0 = $51.9956 rounded off to $52.00

Explanation:

The two stage growth model of DDM will be used to calculate the price of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow over time with two different growth rates. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock.

The formula for price of the stock today under this model is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r)  +  D0 * (1+g1)^2 / (1+r)^2  +  ...  +  D0 * (1+g1)^n / (1+r)^n  + [ (D0 * (1+g1)^n * (1+g2) / (r - g2)) / (1+r)^n ]

Where,

  • D0 is the dividend today or most recently paid dividend
  • g1 is the initial growth rate which is 20%
  • g2 is the constant growth rate which is 8%
  • r is the required rate of return

P0 = 2.5 * (1+0.2) / (1+0.15)  +  2.5 * (1+0.2)^2 / (1+0.15)^2  +  

2.5 * (1+0.2)^3 / (1+0.15)^3  +

[(2.5 * (1+0.2)^3 * (1+0.08) / (0.15 - 0.08) / (1+0.15)^3)

P0 = $51.9956 rounded off to $52.00

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

No  

Explanation:

When we do research, it is important to keep confidentiality regarding the personal data from the persons we interview. In other words, we are not supposed to tell other people "who said what" or to publish our results with the names of the people (if we're publishing a paper).

In this case, Sara conducted a study in her sixth grade classroom about interests in science classes, later she shared what individual students said with the seventh-grade teachers. Therefore, she shared confidential information when she told the teacher what individual students said. Therefore, Sara wasn't sharing this information in accordance with ethical research practices.
