Supler company produces a part used in the manufacture of one of its products. the unit product cost is $18, computed as follows:

direct materials = $8

direct labor = $4

variable manufacturing overhead = $1

fixed manufacturing overhead = $5

unit product cost (total of above costs) = $18

an outside supplier has offered to provide the annual requirement of 4,000 of the parts for only $14 each. it is estimated that 60 percent of the fixed overhead cost above could be eliminated if the parts are purchased from the outside supplier. based on these data, the per-unit dollar advantage or disadvantage of purchasing from the outside supplier would be:

$1 disadvantage

$1 advantage

$2 advantage

$4 disadvantage

Suppose the government decides to issue a new savings bond that is guaranteed to double in value if you hold it for 20 years. assume you purchase a bond that costs $25. a. what is the exact rate of return you would earn if you held the bond for 20 years until it doubled in value? (do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. if you purchased the bond for $25 in 2017 at the then current interest rate of .27 percent year, how much would the bond be worth in 2027? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) c. in 2027, instead of cashing in the bond for its then current value, you decide to hold the bond until it doubles in face value in 2037. what annual rate of return will you earn over the last 10 years?
