A small business produces a single product and reports the following data: Sales price $ 8.50 per unit Variable cost $ 5.30 per unit Fixed cost $ 21 comma 000 per month Volume 10 comma 000 units per month The company believes that the volume will go up to 13 comma 000 units if the company reduces its sales price to $ 7.25. How would this change affect operating income?
Answer:
If the current price is reduced from $8.50 to $7.25 per unit, operating income will decrease by $6,650 (from $11,000 to $4,350). This happens because variable costs will increase dramatically while total revenue will only increase a little.
Explanation:
current revenue = $8.50 x 10,000 = $85,000
- variable costs = $5.30 x 10,000 = ($53,000)
- fixed costs = ($21,000)
operating income = $11,000
alternative price = $7.25 x 13,000 = $94,250
- variable costs = $5.30 x 13,000 = ($68,900)
- fixed costs = ($21,000)
operating income = $4,350
Suppose the demand for Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) is given by Q = 250 - .25p + 4pc, where Q is the quantity of DVRs demanded (in 1000s), p is the price of a DVR, and pc is the price of cable television. How much does the quantity demanded for DVRs change if the p rises by $40?
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question
Suppose the demand for Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) is given by Q = 250 - .25p + 4pc, where Q is the quantity of DVRs demanded (in 1000s), p is the price of a DVR, and pc is the price of cable television. How much does the quantity demanded for DVRs change if the p rises by $40? A) drops by 10,000 DVRs B) increases by 16,000 DVRs C) drops by 2,500 DVRs D) increases by 4,000
Answer:
Drops by 10,000 DVRs
Explanation:
The demand for digital video recorders is expressed by
Q= 250- .25p+4pc
Where
Q represents the quantity demanded by the customers
P represents the price of DVR
pc represents the price of cable television
Since the factor of p in the expression above is negative, this implies that the quantity of DVR demanded in the market will reduce
If the price of DVR increase by $40, then the quantity demanded will reduce by
= 0.25×40×1000
= 10×1000
= 10,000 units
Hence the quantity of DVRs drops by 10,000 DVRs if the price is increased to $40

The Delta Manufacturing Company has a marginal tax rate of 21 %. The last dividend paid by Delta was $2.60. The expected long-run growth rate is 4%. If investors require 11% rate of return, what is the current price of the stock (P0)?
Answer:
The stock price is 38.63
Explanation:
We use the gordon model to calculate the horizon value and with htat the value of the stock:
[tex]\frac{D_1}{r-g} = PV\\\frac{D_0(1+g)}{r-g} = PV\\[/tex]
D1 = 2.60 x 1.04 = 2.704
rate of return 11% = 0.11
grow rate = 4% = 0.04
[tex]\frac{2.704}{0.11-0.04} = PV\\[/tex]
P0 = 38.62857143
The taxes should be ignored as the gordon model do not include them in the calculations

All of these products have been on the market for some time, but, to entice better sales, Run-of-the-Mills wants to try a new advertisement that will market two of the products that consumers will likely consume together. As a former economics student, you know that complements are typically consumed together while substitutes can take the place of other goods. Run-of-the-Mills provides your marketing firm with the following data: When the price of guppy gummies increases by 5%, the quantity of raskels sold decreases by 4% and the quantity of cannes sold increases by 5%. Your job is to use the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and the other goods to determine which goods your marketing firm should advertise together Complete the first column of the following table by computing the cross-price elasticity between guppy gummies and raskels, and then between guppy gummies and cannies. In the second column, determine if guppy gummies are a complement to or a substitute for each of the goods listed. Finally, complete the final column by indicating which good you should recommend marketing with guppy gummies. Relative to Guppy Gummies Cross-Price Elasticity of Demand Complement or Substitute Recommend Marketing with Guppy Gummies Raskels Cannies
Answer:
See explanation below
Explanation:
Here, when the price of guppy gummies increases by 5%, the quantity of raskels sold decreases by 4% and the quantity of cannes sold increases by 5%.
i.e, % change in price of guppy grummies = 5%
% change in quantity of raskels = -4%
% change in quantity of cannes = 5%
i) Find the Cross price elasticity of demand between guppy grummies and raskels. Use the expression below.
% change in quantity demanded of raskels / % change in price of guppy gummies
= -4% / 5%
= -0.8
Substitute goods have a negative cross price elasticity of demand. Since, the cross price elasticity of demamd here is negative, the goods are substitute.
It is recommended not to advertise raskels with guppy grummies
ii) Find the Cross price elasticity of demand between guppy grummies and cannes. Use the expression below.
% change in quantity demanded of cannes / % change in price of guppy gummies
= 5% / 5%
= 1
Complement goods have a positive cross price elasticity of demand. Since, the cross price elasticity of demamd here is positive, the goods complement each other.
It is recommended to advertise cannes with guppy grummies.
Casper and Cecile divorced in 2018. As part of the divorce settlement, Casper transferred stock to Cecile. Casper purchased the stock for $25,000, and it had a market value of $43,000 on the date of the transfer. Cecile sold the stock for $40,000 a month after receiving it. In addition, Casper is required to pay Cecile $1,500 a month in alimony. He made five payments to her during the year.What are the tax consequences for Casper and Cecile regarding these transactions?
Answer:
According to IRS, the party making the payments is entitled to cancel the alimony & separate maintenance fees in a divorce situation while the party accepting the payment is obliged to include the amounts received in their gross revenue. Any transfer of property in respect of a divorce other than cash, however, is not taxable.The party receiving the property also does not recognize income and include the item on cost basis equal to basis of the party making transfer.

How can economies of scale benefit you as a customer and society as a whole? Can the taxicab industry, in large cities, be subject to significant economies of scale? Are ride-sharing services, such as Uber and Lyft, able to take advantage of economies of scale? How or why not?
Answer:
The answer to this question can be described as follows:
Explanation:
The economy scale with cost activity and total volumes of sales, which lowers the overall product prices as a result, and grows all economies of scale, because consumers purchase the stuff like those, who pay even less than the amount they expect to receive.
It is the transition, the same saved money it's spent on other commodities and the overall deficit as well as the actual boosting of financial social assistance that generates income as a whole. It also increases outlays and creates more jobs, and benefits people with higher median income levels and a decent standard of living, For example
Uber often encourages ride-sharing, in which the car is capable of serving 3-4 people simultaneously. This gives a win-win situation to all sides and generates economies of scale. Throughout the market like India, Uber already is introducing it and being extremely successful.

In 2016, Hudson Corp. sold 3,000 units at $150.00 each. Variable expenses were $113.00 per unit, and fixed expenses were $58,240. The same variable expenses per unit and fixed expenses are expected for 2017. If the company cuts selling price by 6.00%, what is its break-even point in units for 2017?
Answer:
Break even in units (2017) = 2080 units
Explanation:
The break even point in units is the number of units where the total revenue equals total cost. It is a point of no profit and no loss. The break even point in units is calculated as follows,
Break even in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
A cut in selling price of 6% would mean that the new selling price will be,
New selling price = 150 - (150 * 0.06) = $141
Contribution margin per unit = 141 - 113 = $28
Break even in units = 58240 / 28
Break even in units (2017) = 2080 units
Based on guidelines established by the accounting manager, Jaime, the accounts payable clerk, makes payments to vendors in order to maximize discounts. What type of decision does this represent?
Answer:
Programmed.
Explanation:
This is a form of decision that is has been made or is been made by as manager just like Jaime the account managing clerk which is repetitive or occurs steadily and over and over. The fact that it happens this steadily makes it a programmed decision.
This decision making are always taken in accordance with some establishment habit, regulations or procedures while the nature of problem that requires a non programmed decision is unstructured and something different. It needs a higher management participation.
In programmed decision making, there could likely be no error in the decisions because it is a routine and managers usually have the information they need to create rules and guidelines to be followed by others.

James is the landlord of an apartment containing 22 houses which are to be maintained by him and Lily is one of the tenants. In which of the following cases would the tenant be liable for an injury occurring on the leased premises?A) James was negligent in repairing the broken step on which Lily tripped and broke her ankle.B) Lily's nephew cut his finger with the knife that was negligently kept in Lily's kitchen.C) A little child at the apartment almost choked himself by consuming the paint that was chipping off the common wall between Lily's apartment and her neighbor's.D) The entire apartment caught fire and the fire extinguisher could not be used since it was installed only in Lily's rented house and she was out shopping.E) Lily's visitor got into the common lift in the apartment that suddenly crashed leading to severe injuries to Lily's visi
Answer: B) Lily's nephew cut his finger with the knife that was negligently kept in Lily's kitchen.
Explanation:
James as the landlord will be responsible for the structural or other defects of the house so long as it is the house that is the problem.
Activities that go on inside a tenants house that are caused by the actions of the tenants will not be a liability on the path of the landlord.
If an elevator is damaged or there weren't enough fire extinguishers or there was a broken step or poor quality paint was used, these are all defects related to the house itself and as such will result in negligence on the part of the landlord.
A child getting injured by a knife that Lily as a tenant left, in her apartment will.be the fault of Lily and the negligence can only be on her because it was due to actions by her as a tenant in her leased property.
Burrito King (a new fast-food franchise opening up nationwide) has successfully automated burrito production for its drive-up fast-food establishments. The Burro-Master 9000 requires a constant 30 seconds to produce a batch of burritos. It has been estimated that customers will arrive at the drive-up window according to a Poisson distribution at an average of one every 45 seconds. To help determine the amount of space needed for the line at the drive-up window
A. What is the average line length (in cars)?
B. What is the average number of cars in the system (both in line and at the window)?
C. What is the expected average time in the system?
Answer:
(A)0.6600 (B) 1.325 (C) 0.997 or 1 minute
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The constant rate = 30 seconds
The arrival rate according to Poisson distribution is = 45 seconds
Now,
(A) We solve for the average length line of cars
The formula is given below:
Lq = λ²/ 2μ ( μ -λ)
Here,
λ = this is the mean time of arrival rate
μ = This is the mean service rate
Thus we compute for the mean time arrival rate which is given below:
The mean arrival rate λ = arrival rate/ 60 seconds
= 60/45
= 1.33 customer per minute
Then we solve for the means service rate which is given below
The mean service rate μ = 60 seconds/ mean rate
= 60/30 = 2 customer per minute
We will now solve for the average line length in cars which is shown below:
Lq = λ²/ 2μ ( μ -λ)
Lq = 1.33²/2*2 (2-1.33)
Lq = 1.7689/4 (0.67)
Lq = 1.7689/2.68
Lq = 0.6600
Therefore the average length in line for cars is 0.6600 cars
(B) We solve for the average number of cars in the system
Ls =Lq + λ /μ
Ls =0.600 + 1.33/2
Ls =0.6600 + 0.665
Ls = 1.325
(C) Finally we need to find the expected average time in the system which is shown below:
Ws = Ls/λ
Ws= 1.325/1.33 = 0.997 or 1.00
The expected time average in the system is 0.997 or 1.00 minutes.
(A) The average length in line for cars is 0.6600 cars
(B) Ls = 1.325
(C)The predicted time standard in the system is 0.997 or 1.00 minutes.
What is Average Time?The constant rate = 30 seconds
The arrival rate according to Poisson disbandment is = 45 seconds
(A) We solve for the average stature line of cars
The formula is given below:
Lq = λ²/ 2μ ( μ -λ)
Here,
λ = this is the meantime of arrival rate
μ = This is the mean service rate
Thus we compute for the meantime arrival rate which is given below:
The mean formation rate λ = arrival rate/ 60 seconds
= 60/45
= 1.33 customer per minute
Then we solve for the concessions service rate which is given below
The mean service rate μ = 60 seconds/ mean rate
= 60/30 = 2 consumer per minute
We will now solve for the average line length in cars which is shown below:
Lq = λ²/ 2μ ( μ -λ)
Lq = 1.33²/2*2 (2-1.33)
Lq = 1.7689/4 (0.67)
Lq = 1.7689/2.68
Lq = 0.6600
Hence the average length in line for cars is 0.6600 cars
(B) We solve for the average number of cars in the system
Ls =Lq + λ /μ
Ls =0.600 + 1.33/2
Ls =0.6600 + 0.665
Ls = 1.325
(C) Finally we need to find the anticipated average time in the system which is shown below:
Ws = Ls/λ
Ws= 1.325/1.33 = 0.997 or 1.00
The predicted time standard in the system is 0.997 or 1.00 minutes.

Find the present value of $10,000 received at the start of every year for 20 years if the interest rate is J1 = 12% p.a. and if the first payment of $10,000 is received at the end of 10 years
Answer:
$ 26,935.56
Explanation:
The key to this question is that present value of those cash flows in year ten is the future value today.
PV=PMT*(1/i-1/i*(1+i)^n)*(1+i)
PMT is the annual amount receivable which is $10,000
i is 12% or 0.12
n is 20 years
1/i*(1+i)^=1/0.12*(1+0.12)^20=1/(0.12*9.646293093 )=0.863889709
1/i=1/0.12=8.333333333
1+i=1+0.12=1.12
PV=10,000*(8.333333333 -0.863889709 )*1.12
PV=10,000*7.469443624*1.12=$83,657.77
The PV In ten years' time is future value today, hence we need to discount that future value to today's terms
PV=FV*(1+r)^-n
n is ten

If a fixed asset, such as a computer, were purchased on January 1st for $1,832.00 with an estimated life of 6 years and a salvage or residual value of $123.00, what is the journal entry for monthly expense under straight-line depreciation?
Answer:
Dr depreciation expense $ 23.74
Cr accumulated depreciation $ 23.74
Explanation:
The depreciation per month would be first thing to determine:
Yearly depreciation =Cost of asset-residual value/useful life
cost of asset is $1,832.00
residual value which is disposal value at the end of useful life is $123.00
Useful life is 6 years
yearly depreciation charge= ($1,832.00-$123.00)/6=$ 284.83
Monthly depreciation expense=yearly depreciation charge/12=$284.83/12=$23.74
The journal entry monthly would be a debit to depreciation expense and a credit to accumulated depreciation
Fleet Delivery Corporation is a public company with a market capitalization of less than $75 million. Fleet is poised to issue securities in a transaction that, under the Securities Act of 1933, is "exempt." This enables Fleet to ______________.
Answer:
This enables Fleet to reduce costs of regulatory compliance in relation to the security issue
Explanation:
When a company is exempt under the Securities Act of 1993,this implies that when issuing securities in the market place,the stock exchange ,the company is not required to produce audited financial statements.
Auditing financial statements sometimes cost fortunes especially when it is also required that one of the Big-4 professional firms is to be consulted.
By not requiring audited financials,the costs of audit is saved,hence cost of compliance with exchange rules is reduced overall

1. Investing activities are essentially the cash activities with respect to non-current assets such as sale of equipment for cash.
2. Financing activities refers to cash activities with respect to owners’ equity and non-current liabilities such as purchase of treasury stock.
3. Operating activities are mainly the cash activities with respect to net income such as payment of employee salaries.
Waterway Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2020 of $1,385,600 and retained earnings of $5,415,900 at December 31, 2020. Waterway later discovered that its ending inventories at December 31, 2019 and 2020, were overstated by $103,320 and $38,040, respectively. Determine the corrected amounts for 2020 cost of goods sold and December 31, 2020, retained earnings.
Answer:
b. Corrected 2020 cost of goods sold = $ 1,320,320.
b. Corrected retained earnings = $5,377,860.
Explanation:
a. Determine the corrected amounts for 2020 cost of goods sold
An overstatement of the beginning inventory has to be deducted from the reported cost of good sold since the amount of the overstatement was added to the cost of goods sold initially.
On the other hand, an overstatement of the ending inventory has to be added to the reported cost of good sold since the amount of the overstatement was deducted to the cost of goods sold initially.
Therefor, we have:
Corrected 2020 cost of goods sold = $1,385,600 - $103,320 + $38,040 = $ 1,320,320.
b. Determine the corrected amounts for December 31, 2020, retained earnings
In this case, the amount of overstatement of the ending inventory has to be deducted from the reported retained earning since the retained earning was initially overstated by that amount.
Therefore, we have:
Corrected retained earnings = $5,415,900 - $38,040 = $5,377,860
Moody Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Machine-hours required to support estimated production 157,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 650,000 Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 4.40 Required: 1. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate. 2. During the year, Job 400 was started and completed. The following information was available with respect to this job: Direct materials $ 320 Direct labor cost $ 230 Machine-hours used 37 Compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 400. 3. If Job 400 includes 50 units, what is the unit product cost for this job
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated machine-hours= 157,000
Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead= $650,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $4.40
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overehad rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (650,000/157,000) + 4.4
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $8.54 per machine-hour
Job 400:
Direct materials $320
Direct labor cost $230
Machine-hours used 37
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated overhead= 8.54*37= $315.98
Finally, we need to determine the unitary cost for Job 400:
Total cost= 320 + 230 + 315.98= $865.98
Unitary cost= 865.98/50= $17.32

a. 4 years
b. 3.55 years
c. 2.00 years
d. 4.65 years
Answer:
b. 3.55 years
Explanation:
The payback period is basically the amount of time an investor needs to recover his/her initial investment.
lets assume initial investment = $1,000
when you calculate IRR, the present value of the cash flows = initial investment
the present value of an annuity for 4 years and 5% is 3.5460
$1,000 = yearly cash flow x 3.546
yearly cash flow = $1,000 / 3.546 = $282
payback period = $1,000 / 282 = 3.546 years ≈ 3.55 years

A local theater company sells 1,500 season ticket packages at a price of $250 per package. The first show in the 10-show season starts this week. (a) The sale of the season tickets before the first show. (b) The revenue from fulfilling the performance obligation by putting on the first show.
Answer:
Dr cash $375,000
Cr unearned revenue $375,000
Dr unearned revenue $37,500
Cr revenue $37,500
Explanation:
The total amount realized from the sale of tickets is $375,000($250*1500)
However,the cash proceeds should be debited to cash while it is also credited to unearned revenue
The revenue from fulfilling the performance obligation=1/10*$375,000=$37,500
The $37,500 is debited to unearned revenue and credited to sales revenue as that amount has now been earned
a) The cash realized from the sale for all the season tickets is $375,000.
b) The revenue to be recognized after fulfilling the performance obligation of the first show is $37,500.
Data and Calculations:
Selling price per ticket package = $250
Number of ticket packages sold = 1,500
Number of show seasons = 10
On the average, each show season will take = 150 tickets (1,500/10)
Proceeds from sale of season tickets = $375,000 ($250 x 1,500)
Revenue from first show = $37,500 ($375,000/10) or (150 x $250)

If the price of chocolate-covered peanuts decreases from $1.15 to $0.90, the quantity demanded does not change, and other things are unchanged, the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand, using the midpoint method, is:
Answer:
price-elasticity = 0
Explanation:
The formula for mid-point elasticity will be as follows:
[tex]\frac{q_1-q_2}{\frac{q_1+q_2}{2}} \div\frac{p_1-p_2}{\frac{p_1+p_2}{2}}[/tex]
Now, as quantity did not change we get:
q1 = q2
thus q1 + q2 = 2q1
and q1 - q2 = 0
[tex]\frac{0}{\frac{2q_1}{2}} \div\frac{1.15-0.90}{\frac{1.15+0.90}{2}}[/tex]
As we are getting a zero the end result will be zero which makes complete sense as there was no change in quantity the demand is completely inelastic.
g A stock will issue a dividend of $20 one year from today. Dividends will shrink by 3% per year for the next two years after that, and then remain constant forever. Find the current price of one share of this stock, given an effective annual rate of 6%.
Answer:
Current price = $341.943
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the worth of an asset is the sum of the present values of its future cash flows discounted at the required rate of return.
PV dividend in year 1 = 20 × 1.03^(-1)= 19.41747573
PV of dividend in year 2 = 97%× 20 × 1,03^(-2)= 18.28636064
PV of dividend in year 3 = 97%× 97%× 20× 1.03^(-3) = 17.22113575
PV of dividend from year 4 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
PV (in year 3 terms
(97%× 97%× 20× 1.03^(-3))/0.06 =313.6333333
PV in year o terms
PV = A/r
A= 313.63, r = 6%
313.63× 1.03^(-3)= 287.0189291
Price of stock = 19.41 +18.28 + 17.221 + 17.221= 341.943
Current price = $341.943
The following inventory balances relate to Lequin Manufacturing Corporation at the beginning and end of the year: Beginning Ending Raw materials $14,000 $19,000 Work in process $31,000 $7,000 Finished goods $25,000 $23,000 Lequin's total manufacturing cost was $543,000. What was Lequin's cost of goods sold?
Answer:
Cost of goods sold = $564,000
Explanation:
The cost of goods sold would be determined as follows:
$
Opening inventory
Raw material = 14,000
Work in progress 31,000
Manufacturing cost 543,000
588,000
Add open inventory of Finished goods 25,000
Less Closing inventory
raw material ( 19,000)
Work in progress ( 7,000)
Total cost of goods available for sale 587,000
Less closing inventory of finished goods 23,000
Cost of goods sold 564,000
Note that the opening inventory of raw material and work in progress would increase the manufacturing cost while their respective closing inventory represent cost incurred on production during the period on inventories not yet completed
Logan Company can sell all of the standard and premier products they can produce, but it has limited production capacity. It can produce 8 standard units per hour or 4 premier units per hour, and it has 36,600 production hours available. Contribution margin per unit is $20.00 for the standard product and $23.00 for the premier product. What is the total contribution margin if Logan chooses the most profitable sales mix
Answer:
The most profitable sales mix is 288,000 standard units and 0 premier units.
Explanation:
8 standard units per hour
4 premier units per hour
36,600 production hours available
For standard units, contribution margin per hour = 8 x $20 = $160
For premier units, contribution margin per hour = 4 x $23 = $92
Therefore, most profitable sales mix = 36,000 hours x 8 units per hour of standard product
= 288,000 standard units and 0 premier units.
