Q2) A company is evaluating the extension of credit to a new group of customers.
Although these customers will provide $180,000 in additional credit sales, 12% are likely
to be uncollectible. The company will also incur $16,200 in additional collection
expense. Production and marketing costs represent 72% of sales. The firm is in a 34% tax
bracket and has a receivables turnover of four times. No other asset buildup will be
required to service the new customers. The firm has a 10% desired return.
has a
a. Calculate the incremental income after taxes and the return on incremental
investment. Should the company extend credit to these customers?
b. Based on the income level determined in (a), should credit be extended if an
additional investment in inventory is considered? Assume an inventory turnover
of 1.6 times.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. To calculate the incremental income after taxes, we need to determine the incremental costs and revenues associated with extending credit to the new customers. The additional credit sales will generate $180,000 in revenue, but we need to subtract the expected uncollectible amount of 12% * $180,000 = $21,600. The net additional credit sales will be $180,000 - $21,600 = $158,400.

The production and marketing costs will be 72% * $180,000 = $129,600. The total incremental costs will be $129,600 + $16,200 (collection expense) = $145,800.

The incremental income before taxes will be $158,400 - $145,800 = $12,600. The income tax will be 34% * $12,600 = $4,284. The incremental income after taxes will be $12,600 - $4,284 = $8,316.

To calculate the return on incremental investment, we need to determine the incremental investment required to extend credit to the new customers. Since no additional investment in assets is required, the incremental investment will be equal to the incremental costs of $145,800. The return on incremental investment will be $8,316 / $145,800 = 5.7%.

Based on the return on incremental investment of 5.7%, the company should not extend credit to the new customers, as it is below the desired return of 10%.

b. If an additional investment in inventory is required to extend credit to the new customers, we will need to recalculate the incremental income after taking into account the additional investment. If the additional investment in inventory is $x, the incremental investment will be $145,800 + $x. The incremental income before taxes will be $158,400 - ($129,600 + $16,200 + $x) = $12,600 - $x. The income tax will be 34% * ($12,600 - $x) = $4,284 - $x * 0.34. The incremental income after taxes will be ($12,600 - $x) - ($4,284 - $x * 0.34) = $8,316 - $x * 0.34.

To determine whether credit should be extended, we need to compare the return on incremental investment to the desired return of 10%. The return on incremental investment will be ($8,316 - $x * 0.34) / ($145,800 + $x). Setting this equal to the desired return of 10% and solving for x, we find that the additional investment in inventory cannot exceed $24,764 for the company to meet its desired return. If the additional investment in inventory is less than or equal to $24,764, the company should extend credit to the new customers. If it is greater than $24,764, the company should not extend credit to the new customers.

The equations that are equivalent are (b) 8k ÷ 4 = 20 ÷ 4, (c) 8k × 3 = 20 × 3 and (d) 8k + 10 = 20 + 10

How to determine the equations that are equivalent?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

8k = 20.

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

So, we have the following representation

8k ÷ 4 = 20 ÷ 4

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3

So, we have the following representation

8k × 3 = 20 × 3

Add 10 to both sides of the equation

So, we have the following representation

8k + 10 = 20 + 10

Hence, the equivalent equation is 8k + 10 = 20 + 10

Miguel is mailing packages.Each small package cost him $2.20 to send.Each large package cost him $3.90.How much will it cost him to send 6 small packages and 1 large package?

Answers

Answer: $13.50

Step-by-step explanation:

It will cost Miguel $13.50 to send 6 small packages and 1 large package. To find the total cost, we can first calculate the cost of sending the small packages by multiplying the cost per small package by the number of small packages: 2.20 * 6 = $<<2.20*6=13.20>>13.20

We can then add the cost of the large package to find the total cost: 13.20 + 3.90 = $<<13.20+3.90=17.10>>17.10.

Therefore, it will cost Miguel $17.10 to send 6 small packages and 1 large package.

Answers

The volume expression for the box is 1.728lwh and it means that the volume increases by 72.8%

How to determine the volume expression for the box?

The complete question is added at the end of this solution

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Length = l

Width = w

Height = h

The volume of a box can be calculated using

Volume = lwh

Rewrite the volume equation as

v = lwh

When the dimensions of the box are increased by 20%, we have the following expressions

Length = 1.2l

Width = 1.2w

Height = 1.2h

So, the new volume is

What is an exponential function?

The exponential function is one of the most important functions in mathematics (though it would have to admit that the linear function ranks even higher in importance). To form an exponential function, we let the independent variable be the exponent.

An exponential function is a function that usually takes the form f(x) = bˣ.

The exponential curve depends on the exponential function and it depends on the value of the x.

where;

b = base

ˣ = power

a,b)Find the phasor form of the following E-field, the polarization type, and plot the vector on the X-y axis (z-0) for one period a) E(z,t) = xZcos(wt kz) y4cos(wt kz) b) E(z,t) = R2cos(wt + kz) - 94sin(wt + kz)

Answers

a) The phasor form of E-field = xˆ 2cos(wt - kz) - yˆ 4cos(wt - kz) is 2√5 L(-63.43).

Polarization type is linearly polarised.

b) The phasor form of E-field = ?

E(z,t) = xˆ 2cos(wt + kz) - yˆ 4sin(wt + kz) is E(z,t) =2√5 L(-143.43). polarization type is elliptical.

We have given that

E⃗(z,t) =2xˆcos(wt - kz) - 4 yˆcos(wt - kz)

|r⃗ | = √((2cos(wt - kz))² + (- 4cos(wt - kz))²)

= √(4cos²(wt - kz) + 16cos²(wt - kz))

= √(20cos²(wt - kz))

= 2√5 cos(wt - kz)

φ = 4cos(wt - kz)/(2cos(wt - kz))

= tan⁻¹ 1(-2) = -63.43°

So, E(z,t) = 2√5 L(-63.43)

b) E(z,t) = xˆ 2cos(wt + kz) - yˆ 4sin(wt + kz)

= xˆ 2cos(wt + kz) - yˆ 4cos(wt + kz -π/2)

|r| = √((2cos(wt + kz))² + (- 4sin(wt -+kz))²)

= √20

phi = tan⁻¹(- 4cos(wt - kz)/(2cos(wt - kz)) - π/2

= tan⁻¹( -2) + π/2 = - 143.43

so, E(z,t) =2√5 L(-143.43)

E(z,t) = xˆ 2cos(wt - kz) - yˆ 4cos(wt - kz)

if wt = 0°

E(z,t) = xˆ 2cos(0 - kz) - yˆ 4cos(0- kz)

= 2xˆ - 4yˆ

wt = 30° , E(z,t) = xˆ 2cos( - kz) - yˆ 4cos(0- kz)

E(z,t) = √3/2(2) xˆ - √3/2(4) yˆ

= √3xˆ - 2√3yˆ

for wt = 45°

E(z,t) = √2 xˆ - 2√2 yˆ

for wt = 90° =>E(z,t) = 0

for wt = 60° , E(z,t) = xˆ - 2 yˆ as seen in above graph that is linear polarised

For part (b) ,

E(z,t) = 2 xˆcos(wt - kz) - 4yˆ sin(wt + kz)

From graph elliptical polarised,

for wt = 0 , E(0,t) = 2 xˆ

for wt = 90° , E(0,t) = -4yˆ

for wt =180° , E(0,t) = -2 xˆ

for wt = 270° , E(0,t) = -4yˆ

Hence, we get the answer of both parts.

a coin is flipped 10 times how many outcomes will have exactly 4 tails and start and end with different faces

Answers

There are a total of 2^10 = 1024 possible outcomes for a coin flipped 10 times. Out of these, there are only 10 outcomes that have exactly 4 tails and start and end with different faces.

To count the number of outcomes with 4 tails, we can use the binomial coefficient formula: n choose k = n!/(k! * (n-k)!), where n is the total number of flips (10 in this case) and k is the number of tails (4 in this case). This gives us 10 choose 4 = 10!/ (4! * 6!) = 210 outcomes with 4 tails.

To count the number of outcomes that start and end with different faces, we can consider the first and last flips separately. The first flip can be either heads or tails and the last flip can also be either heads or tails, for a total of 2 * 2 = 4 possibilities.

Thus, there are a total of 210 * 4 = 840 outcomes that have exactly 4 tails and start and end with different faces. However, there are two outcomes (THTHTHTHTHT and TTHTHTHTHTH) that are counted twice in this total, so we need to subtract these from the total to get the correct number of outcomes. This gives us 840 - 2 = 838 outcomes.

Finally, we need to subtract the two outcomes that start and end with the same face (HHHHHHHHTH and THHHHHHHHH). This gives us a total of 838 - 2 = 836 outcomes.

Therefore, there are a total of 836 outcomes that have exactly 4 tails and start and end with different faces out of a total of 1024 possible outcomes.
