The financial analyst at Medupe Company has prepared the following sales and cash disbursement estimates (in thousand rand) for the period February to June of the current year

Historically Medupe Company has had 30% of sales being for cash. Of the credit sales, 70% are collected one month after the sale, and the remaining 30% are collected two months after the sale. The company has access to a R20000 revolving line of credit at a cost of 12% interest per year, assuming 365-day year. No administrative fees are applicable.

All purchases and other disbursements are procured on a cash basis. The depreciation for the year is estimated at R1 500 The beginning cash balance at April 1 is R1 500.

Required
Draw up a cash budget for Medupe Company for April, May and June and determine how much the requisite short-term financing by way of revolving line of credit will cost, if utilised.

QUESTION 2 Marvel Industries is a South African based manufacturer of “Solasheet”, an award-winning skylight. The company is currently investigating two investment projects. The information is given below: Project Chuck Involves extending the company’s production facility at Westville, Kwa-Zulu Natal. The plant will cost R12 million and is expected to create an additional annual profit of R2.26 million for the 8 years life of the project. The following expenses were included in the annual profit:  Depreciation was calculated on the straight-line method, over the life of project.  Share of existing overheads, borne by head office amounting to R0,3 million p.a. DC 6 Project Larry Involves setting up an independent manufacturing facility in Taiwan. The cost of the facility would be an initial outlay 105.40 million Taiwan dollars. This would result in annual sales of 44.8 million Taiwan dollars, for the 8 years of the project. The annual fixed costs and variable costs are 4.3 million and 10.6 million Taiwan dollars respectively. Note:  Marvel Industries current cost of capital is 12%.  The Taiwanese inflation is expected to exceed the South African inflation by 2% p.a. throughout the life of the project.  The current spot rate exchange is 5 Taiwan dollars to the Rand. Required: Compute the necessary calculations and advise Marvel Industries if it is worth investing in neither, in one or both of these two opportunities..

Create an annotated bibliography where you will locate and summarize 8 scholarly sources related to child development that will help to prepare for a interview with a child that's

between ages 3 to 10 years old. I plan to interview a child that's between ages 3 to 10 years old so this is what the annotated bibliographgy should be based on. (Child development).

For better understanding below is just an example of how the annotated bibliography 8 schlarly sources should be:

Just an Example:

Waite, L. J., Goldschneider, F. K., & Witsberger, C. (1986). Nonfamily living and the erosion of traditional family orientations among young adults. American Sociological Review, 51 (4), 541-554.

The authors, researchers at the Rand Corporation and Brown University, use data from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women and Young Men to test their hypothesis that nonfamily living by young adults alters their attitudes, values, plans, and expectations, moving them away from their belief in traditional sex roles. They find their hypothesis strongly supported in young females, while the effects were fewer in studies of young males. Increasing the time away from parents before marrying increased individualism, self-sufficiency, and changes in attitudes about families. In contrast, an earlier study by Williams cited below shows no significant gender differences in sex role attitudes as a result of nonfamily living.

Total has discovered a potential 1 billion barrels of “wet” gas off the coast of South Africa. The gas could be used as petrol or perhaps even converted into electricity, according to one expert. The Brulpadda gas find should mean more tax revenue and a stronger rand. How Will It Affect South Africans Firstly, government will earn more tax. Total and its partners will pay the regular 28% corporate tax on all taxable income from Brulpadda. According to the most optimistic estimates, the Brulpadda find could yield $1 trillion (R14.4 trillion) for Total and its partners, which would mean a massive tax windfall for South Africa. Certain Businesses and Skills Will Be in Demand The Brulpadda find could have a massive boost to all kinds of businesses in South Africa. Companies providing helicopters, marine services, catering supplies and transport to get supplies to the site would be required.

4.1 Assuming that government budget is at zero balance discuss the implication of the gas find in terms of government’s fiscal policy for the following economic factors:

4.1.1 Collection of revenue through taxation on personal income (6)

4.1.2 Government spending on the provision of goods and services (7)

4.2 Explain, with the aid of a diagram, the economic impact on cost-push inflation and aggregate output. (12)

4.3 Discuss the main type of unemployment that would be reduced

C# programming

Write a number guessing game using System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary.

• Generate 10 distinct random numbers in the range of 1 to 20. Each random number is associated with a prize money (from 1 to 10000). Use a Dictionary to store the mapping between the random number and the prize money.
• Ask user for two distinct numbers, a and b, both from 1 to 20; if a and b are not distinct, or out of range, quit the program
• Lookup the prize money from both numbers and print out the sum via "You earned XXXX in total!". If the table does not contain the number, assume the prize money is 0.

e.g. Suppose we generate the following random numbers and penalty money:

If a user guess 5 and 3, we output "You earned 234 in total!"

If a user guess 1 and 13, we output "You earned 335 in total!"

If a user guess 1 and 1, quit

The use of computers in education is referred to as computer-assisted instruction (CAI). More sophisticated CAI systems monitor the student’s performance over a period of time. The decision to begin a new topic is often based on the student’s success with previous topics. Modify the following auxiliary program (Computers are playing an increasing role in education. Write a program that will help an elementary school student learn multiplication. Use rand to produce two positive one-digit integers. It should then type a question such as: How much is 8 * 9? The student then types the answer. Your program checks the student’s answer. If it is correct, print “Very good!” and then ask another addition question. If the answer is wrong, print “No. Please try again.” and then let the student try the same question again repeatedly until the student finally gets it right. Terminate the program when the student has 5 right answers.) to count the number of correct and incorrect responses typed by the student. After the student types 5 answers, your program should calculate the percentage of correct responses. If the percentage is lower than 75 percent, your program should print “Please ask for extra help” and then terminate. If the percentage is 75 percent or higher, your program should print “Good work!” and then terminate.

I am programming student so please keep code simple enough that I can learn from it thanks

When interest rates are low, some automobile dealers offer loans at 0% APR, as indicated in a 2016 advertisement by a prominent car dealership, offering zero percent financing or cash back deals on some models.

Zero percent financing means the obvious thing—that no interest is being charged on the loan. So if we borrow $1,200 at 0% interest and pay it off over 12 months, our monthly payment will be $1,200/12 = $100.

Suppose you are buying a new truck at a price of $19,000. You plan to finance your purchase with a loan you will repay over two years. The dealer offers two options: either dealer financing with 0% interest, or a $1,900 rebate on the purchase price. If you take the rebate, you will have to go to the local bank for a loan (of $17,100) at an APR of 5.5%.

What would your monthly payment be if you took the rebate? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

of labor= $10 and cost price of capital=$100.
a) Find the isoquant if q=1 when q=2 and when q=3. Draw the graph.
b) Does this firm’s production exhibit increasing, decreasing or constant returns to
scale?
c) Find the labor demand and the capital demand, as a function of q.
d) Find the firm’s long-run cost function TC(q).
e) If the firm wanted to produce 1 more unit of shirts, how many units of labor and
capital should it use? How much will it cost? What if the firm wants to produce 2
units?
f) Find the firm’s long run average cost function, and marginal cost function. Graph
AC(q) and MC(q) and identify the firm’s long-run supply curve.
