Answer:

a. What is the expected value of unit sales for the new product? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole unit.)

Possible Market Reaction    Sales Units     Probability     Expected sales

Low response                             20                 .30                    6

Moderate response                    35                 .20                    7

High response                            50                 .20                    10

<u>Very high response                    90                 .30                    27          </u>

Total                                                                                          50 units

b. What is the standard deviation of unit sales? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

mean = (6 + 7 + 10 + 27) / 4  = 12.5

variance = {[0.30 x (20 - 50)²] + [0.20 x (35 - 50)²] + [0.20 x (50 - 50)²] + [0.30 x (90 - 50)²]} / 4 = (270 + 45 + 0 + 480) / 4 = 795 / 4 = 198.75

standard deviation = √198.75 = 14.10 units

For $20 million, Ross Adams Mining acquired a tract of land containing a large deposit of anthracite coal. Ross Adams believes t
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

$6.25 per ton of coal

Explanation:

the depletion base = purchase cost + restoration costs

  • purchase cost = $20 million
  • restoration costs = $6 million

depletion base = $26,000,000

depletion rate per ton of coal = (depletion base - salvage value) / estimated reserves = ($26,000,000 - $1,000,000) / 4,000,000 = $6.25 per ton of coal

The depletion rate follows the same concepts as depreciation of fixed assets, but instead of using a fixed asset, you are extracting materials and decreasing the value of the deposits.

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Legal title

Explanation:

A contract can be defined as an agreement between two or more parties (group of people) which gives rise to a mutual legal obligation or enforceable by law.

There are different types of contract in business and these includes: fixed-price contract, cost-plus contract, bilateral contract, implies contract, unilateral contract, adhesion contract, unconscionable contract, option contract, express contract, etc.

Mutual assent is a legal term which represents an agreement by both parties to a contract. When two parties to a contract both have an understanding of the parameters, terms and conditions surrounding a contract, it ultimately implies that they are in agreement and this is generally referred to as mutual assent

In this scenario, Bambi purchased a property using an installment sales contract.

An equitable title can be defined as the right of an individual to use and enjoy an asset (property) due to his or her financial interest in the asset.

On the other hand, a legal title can be defined as the actual (absolute) ownership of a property that is recognized and enforceable in a court of competent jurisdiction.

Hence, Bambi would retain an equitable title from the purchase of the property due to her financial interest in this property while the owner of the property (seller) retains a legal title.
