Answer:

It will take 2 years and 344 days to cover for the initial investment.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment= $7,000

Cash flow year 1 trough 3= $3,600

<u>The payback period is the time required to cover for the initial investment:</u>

Year 1= 3,600 - 7,000= -3,400

Year 2= 3,600 - 3,400= 200

<u>To be more accurate:</u>

(3,400/3,600)*365= 344

It will take 2 years and 344 days to cover for the initial investment.

Due to customer no-shows, the Inn at Charlotte hotel is considering implementing overbooking. The Inn at Charlotte has 150 rooms
kirill [66]

Answer:

The unit=9

Explanation:

The Cost of underage Cu= price -cost =200-0 =200 ( as there is no variable cost of the unsold room)

Cost of overage Co= cost - salvage value = 0 -(-325) =325

Service level = Cu / Cu+Co = 200/ 325+200 = 0.3809

which corresponds to the z value of -0.3

the optimum overbooking = mean + z x SD

= 10+ 3 x (-0.3) =9

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Double-declining balance method

Explanation:

First we have to find the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= One ÷ useful life

= 1 ÷ 4

= 20%

Now the rate is double So, 40%

In year 1, the original cost is $15,000, so the depreciation is $6,000 after applying the 50% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the depreciation is ($15,000 - $6,000) × 40% = $3,600

And, in year 3, the depreciation is ($15,000 - $6,000 - $3,600) × 40% = $2,160

A cereal company's cost, in thousands of dollars, is represented by the function C ( x ) = 2 x + 4500 and its revenue, in thousa
maxonik [38]

Answer:

31,500

Explanation:

Cost function, C (x) = 2 x + 4500

Revenue function, R (x) = 5 x

Profit = Total revenue - Total cost

         = R(x) - C(x)

         = 5 x - [2 x + 4500]

         = 3 x - 4,500

If company sells 12,000 boxes, then profit will be:

=  3 x - 4,500

= 3(12,000) - 4,500

= 36,000 - 4,500

= 31,500

Therefore, 31,500 is the profit earn by the company by selling 12,000 boxes of cereal.
