1.

Given that,

Amount available PV = $1500000

expected withdrawals N = 30

Interest rate r = 8%

Withdrawals are made at start of the year

So, annual withdrawals can be calculated using PV formula of annuity due:

PMT = PV*r/((1+r)*(1 - (1+r)^-N)) = 1500000*0.08/((1 - 1.08^-30)*1.08) = $123371.44

So, option c is correct.

2.

We use the formula

A=P(1+r/100)^n

Where A=future value

P=present value

R=rate of interest

N=time period

Hence future value of 50,000=50,000*(1.09)^30

=50,000*13.2676784691

=$663,383.923455

Also:

Future value of annuity=annuity[(1+rate)^time period-1]/rate

=6000[(1.09)^30-1]/0.09

=6000*136.3075385456

=$817,845.2312736

Hence total future value=663,383.923455+817,845.2312736

=$1481229(approx)

4.Sales = 2,850

COGS = 2,190

Account Receivable = 433

DIO or Days Inventory Outstanding = 73 days

Using DIO formula: DIO = Average Inventory / (COGS / Total Days)

Assuming 365 days as Total number of periods (some people use 360 days)

=> 73 = Avg Inventory / (2190 / 365)

=> Avg Inventory = 73 * 2190 / 365

Average Inventory = $ 438

If we change the number of days to 360, then

Average Inventory = 73 * 2190 / 360 = $ 444.1

Since the number of days to be considered in not specified, hence, answer has been calculated using both widely followed practices. Please consider the answer that is line with your institution practices.
