Answer:

b. variable interval

Explanation:

Schedules of reinforcement based on lapsed time are known as interval schedules. They are either fixed-interval or variable-interval schedules.

Variable-interval schedules provide reinforcement/reward after random time-interval. The interval of time is irregular but revolves around some average length of time. Reinforcement is therefore dispensed unevenly within a stated period.

Your company wants to set aside a fixed amount every year to a sinking fund to replace a piece of industrial equipment costing $
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

If the company makes 8 deposits, one per year earning 7% per year, in order to get $375000 at the 8 year, the company has to deposit $34,874.16 each year.

Explanation:

To get this number the best option is to use a excel spreadsheet and solver add-in. In a table with 8 columns (8 years), organize the payments and the rule of interest: payment year 1*(1+7%)^8+payment year 2*(1+7%)^7+payment year 3*(1+7%)^6+payment year 4*(1+7%)^5+payment year 5*(1+7%)^4+payment year 6*(1+7%)^3+payment year 7*(1+7%)^2++payment year 8*(1+7%)^1 where all the payments are equal (payment 1=p2=p3...=P8)

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Company A

Using the activity-based costing approach, the percent of the company’s total Material Handling activity cost that would be allocated to Product B is:

 

d. 33%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                               Product A   Product B    Product C   Total Use

Number of units produced   1,000 units  7,000 units 2,000 units   10,000

Direct labor hours per unit        2 hours        2 hours       2 hours            6

Number of setups                  30 setups    50 setups   20 setups        100

Number of material moves  600 moves 400 moves  200 moves    1,200

Number of products                1 product     1 product     1 product           3

Product B usage of Material Handling Activity Cost:

Allocation Basis = Number of material moves

Product B material moves = 400

Total material moves = 1,200

Therefore, the percentage of Product B usage of material handling activity is:

= 400/1,200 * 100

= 33%

Sister Pools sells outdoor swimming pools and currently has an aftertax cost of capital of 11.6 percent. Al's Construction build
pentagon [3]

Answer:

NPV -6,422.07908

The investment is not profitable at current cost of capital os 11.6%

Explanation:

Sister Pools 11.6% after tax cost of capital

Contructions 10.3% after tax cost of capital

- 85,000

cash flow 17,000 for next 7 years

<u>We will calculate the present value of a 7-years annuity of 17,000 at 11.6% </u>rate

<em>We use Sister Pools rate because we are asked for this company and there is no indication about a change in the cost of capital condition.</em>

<em />

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\\\\\\\17,000 \frac{1-(1+0.116)^{-7} }{0.116} = PV\\

PV = 78,577.92092

<u>Next we subtract the investment cost to get the Net Present Value</u>

78,577.92092 - 85,000 = -6,422.07908

You have a portfolio that is invested 11 percent in Stock R, 56 percent in Stock S, and the remainder in Stock T. The beta of St
Kruka [31]

Answer:

The beta of stock T is 1.82

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is made up of the weighted average of the individual stock betas in the portfolio.

The formula for portfolio beta is,

Portfolio beta = wA * beta of A + wB * beta of B + ... + wX * beta of X

The weight of stock T in the portfolio is = 1 - (0.11 + 0.56)   = 0.33 or 33%

Let beta of Stock T be x. The beta of Stock T is:

1.47 = 0.11 * 0.84  +  0.56 * 1.39  +  0.33 * x

1.47 = 0.0924 + 0.7784 + 0.33x

1.47 - 0.0924 - 0.7784 = 0.33x

0.5992 / 0.33 = x

x = 1.815 rounded off to 1.82
