Suppose you have a certain amount of cash on hand at the moment and you decide to invest it in a floating-rate financial asset within the next six months. As the estimate of monetary correction for the next six months is 1.0% per month and the application still pays you interest of 0.5% per month, you calculated that at the end of the period you will have $638. What value do you have available today?
A company is developing a new electronic

profit of $5 per unit into the price. The company
needs to recover the cost of R&D plus
Manufacturing Engineering over five years
through sales of 4 million units over those five
years. What will the company need to establish as
the sales price for the unit?

In the first month that he owned the house, he spent P75,000 on repairs and remodeling. Immediately after, the house was remodeled, he was offered P545,000 to sell the house. After some consideration, he decided to keep the house and have it rented for P4,500 per month starting two months after the purchase. He collected rent for 15 months and then sold the house for P600,000.

- Brawdy Plastics, Inc., produces plastic seat belt retainers for General Motors at their plant in Buffalo, New York. After final assembly and painting, the parts are placed on a conveyor belt that moves the parts past a final inspection station. How fast the parts move past the final inspection station depends upon the line speed of the conveyor belt (feet per minute). Although faster line speeds are desirable, management is concerned that increasing the line speed too much may not provide enough time for inspectors to identify which parts are actually defective. To test this theory, Brawdy Plastics conducted an experiment in which the same batch of parts, with a known number of defective parts, was inspected using a variety of line speeds. The following data were collected. Excel file: data14-05.xlsx Number of Line Defective Speed Parts Found 20 23 20 21 30 19 30 16 40 15 40 17 50 14 50 11 If required onterarrow_forwardDetermine the breakeven resale price 15 years from now of an apartment house that can be bought today for $250,000.
