Suppose that a delivery company currently uses one employee per vehicle to deliver packages. Each driver delivers 60 packages pe

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a. What is the MRP per driver per day?

the marginal revenue product per driver = 60 packages x $20 = $1,200 per day

b. Now suppose that a union forces the company to place a supervisor in each vehicle at a cost of $300 per supervisor per day. The presence of the supervisor causes the number of packages delivered per vehicle per day to rise to 60 packages per day What is the MRP per supervisor per day? By how much per vehicle per day do firm profits fall after supervisors are introduced?

if the drivers were already delivering 60 packages per day without the supervisor, then the addition of the supervisor doesn't change anything. So the MRP of the supervisor is $0. That means that the company's profits will decrease by $300 per day due to the supervisors.

c. How many packages per day would each vehicle have to deliver in order to maintain the firm's profit per vehicle after supervisors are introduced?

$300 / 20 = 15 packages per day
in order to maintain the profit per vehicle, each team of delivery man + supervisor should be able to deliver 75 packages per day.

d. Suppose that the number of packages delivered per day cannot be increased but that the price per deliver might potentially be raised. What price would the firm have to charge for each delivery in order to maintain the firm's profit per vehicle after supervisors are introduced?

$300 / 60 = $5
the price of each package delivered should increase by $5 to $25 per package.

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

a) $639,610.76

b) $422,923.12

c) $0.00

d) $875,351.49

Explanation:

a) How large of a deposit must she make today?

To calculate this, we make us of the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1+r)]^n} ÷ r] …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Amount to deposit today =?

P = yearly withdrawal = $95,000

r = interest rate = 4% = 0.04

n = number of years = 8

Substitute the values into equation (1) to have:

PV = $95,000 × [{1 - [1 ÷ (1 + 0.04)]^8} ÷ 0.04]

PV = $95,000 × 6.73274487495041

PV = $639,610.76

Therefore, she must make a deposit of approximately $639,610.76 today.

b) How much will be in the account immediately after you make the 3rd $95,000 withdrawal

Note: See Part A in the attached excel file for the calculation of this.

The answer is the ending balance in Year 3 and it can be seen that this is $422,923.12.

c) How much will be in the account immediately after you make all the withdrawals including the last one in 8 years?

Note: Also see Part A in the attached excel file for the calculation of this.

The answer is the ending balance in Year 8 and it can be seen that this is $0.00.

d) Now, if you decide to drop out of school today and not make any of the withdrawal, but instead keep your aunt’s money, that she deposited today, in the account that is earning 4.00%, how much would you have at the end of 8 years?

Note: See Part B in the attached excel file for the calculation of this.

The answer is the ending balance in Year 8 and it can be seen that this is $875,351.49.

The amount is that large because zero amount is withdrawn each year while the account kept on earning interest yearly on the ending balance.

When using the book value of equity, the debt to equity ratio for Luther in 2018 is closest to: A) 0.43 B) 2.29 C) 2.98 D) 3.57

ikadub [295]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2.29

Explanation:

The debt-to-capital ratio (D/E) is a measurement of a company's financial leverage.

D/E=Total debt/Total equity

Total debt=(notes payable (10.5) + current maturities of long-term debt (39.9) + long-term debt (239.7) = 290.1

Total Equity = 126.6

D/E= 290.1/126.6=2.29

Thus, the debt to equity ratio for Luther in 2018 is closest to 2.29
