Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The total amount of overhead cost allocated to Product X would be closest to $ 392,480

Explanation:

Activities (and Activity Measures)          Estimated Overhead Cost

Machine related (machine-hours)               $256,520

Batch setup (setups)                                    $261,360

General factory (direct labour-hours)         $178,560

                                                       Expected Activity

Activities                   Product X      Product Y         Total

Machine related          4,300             6,300            10,600

Batch setup                 8,600             1,300              9,900

General factory           3,300             6,300             9,600

The total amount of overhead cost allocated to Product X would be closest to:

Machine related = (4,300 × $256,520) ÷ 10,600 = $104,060

Batch setup = (8,600 × $261,360) ÷ 9,900 = $227,040

General factory = (3,300 × $178,560) ÷ 9,600 = $61,380

Total = $104,060 + $227,040 + $61,380 = $ 392,480

After several months of using such variance reports, the owner has become frustrated. For example. she is quite confident that instructor wages were very tightly controlled in July. but the report shows an unfavorable variance. The planning budget was developed using the following formulas, where q is the number of lessons sold:

1. Should the owner feel frustrated with the variance reports? Explain.

2. Prepare a flexible budget performance report for the school for July.

3. Evaluate the school's performance for July.

Answers

Answer:

1. Should the owner feel frustrated with the variance reports?

Yes, because they were incomplete. Since the quantity of lessons is larger than the budgeted, you must prepare a flexible budget. The flexible budget shows that there exists a total unfavorable variance of $385. E.g. , regarding the pilots' salaries, there is a favorable variance in the flexible budget.

2. Prepare a flexible budget performance report for the school for July.

I used an excel spreadsheet to prepare a flexible budget and I attached it.

3. Evaluate the school's performance for July.

The school's performance is neither good or bad because it has higher revenues than estimated (even though it lowered its sales price), but their costs are also higher than budgeted. They are doing a good job at selling their lessons, but a bad job of keeping costs under control. The overall variance is not that significant, but it is still unfavorable. Their fuel expenses should be controlled since the largest unfavorable variance results from spending too much fuel.

Arthur sustained an injury to his back. Arthur claimed the injury was suffered at work and filed a claim for workers' compensation benefits. The employer opposed this claim, saying the injury, if real, was the result of a congenital condition. In accordance with the statute, a hearing was held before the Workers' Compensation Board, which ruled against Arthur. Arthur became disgusted with the hearing officer and the proceedings because Arthur felt that the hearing officer did not like him. Arthur has consulted an attorney seeking to sue for workers' compensation benefits. An appeal is available within the agency, but Arthur wants to go directly to court because he feels that the agency appeal would be useless. Discuss the merits of this strategy.

Answers

Answer: Arthur can't bring a lawsuit to help overturn the ruling of the Worker’s Compensation Board,

Explanation:

From the question, Arthur got a back injury and Arthur claimed that the injury was suffered at work and therefore filed a claim for workers compensation benefits while the employer opposed this claim, by saying that the injury was due to a congenital condition.

A hearing was held before the Workers' Compensation Board, and the board ruled against Arthur. Arthur became disgusted and wants to go directly to the court because as he feels an agency isn't worth it.

The merits of this strategy are that

Arthur can't bring a lawsuit in order to help overturn the findings the Worker’s Compensation Board made, because Arthur failed to exhaust the available administrative remedies he had. Therefore, the lawsuit will not be successful and would therefore not be heard by the courts.

Assume that apples cost $0.50 in 2002 and $1 in 2009, whereas oranges cost $1 in 2002 and $1.50 in 2009. If 4 apples were produced in 2002 and 5 in 2009, whereas 3 oranges were produced in 2002 and 5 in 2009, then the GDP deflator in 2009, using a base year of 2002, was approximately:________.
A) 1.5.
B) 1.7.
C) 1.9.
D) 2.0.

Answers

Answer:

B) 1.7

Explanation:

GDP deflator simply shows the occurring event of the level of prices in the economy which is why It is often the ratio of nominal GDP to real GDP.

GDP deflator in 2009 will be:

Norminal GDP

Cost of apple= $1 in 2009

Apple produced =5 in 2009

Cost of oranges= $1.50 in 2009.

Orange produce= 5 in 2009

$1.00*(5)+$1.50*(5)

=5+7.5

=$12.50

Real GDP

Cost of apple= $0.50 in 2002

Apple produced =5 in 2002

Cost of oranges= $1 in 2002

Orange produce= 5 in 2002

0.50*(5)+$1.00*(5)

=2.5+5

=$7.50

GDP deflator = Nominal GDP/Real GDP)

=$12.50/$7.50

=1.666

The Converting Department of Osaka Napkin Company uses the average cost method and had 2,000 units in work in process that were 60% complete at the beginning of the period. During the period, 25,200 units were completed and transferred to the Packing Department. There were 1,100 units in process that were 30% complete at the end of the period.

a. Determine the number of whole units to be accounted for and to be assigned costs for the period.

b. Determine the number of equivalent units of production for the period.

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent Units

Material cost = 26,560

Conversion Cost= 25,540

Explanation:

We would assume the company uses  weighted average method of valuation.

Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.

Equivalent units = Degree of completion (%) × Number of units

Material cost

Item                                 Unit                                  Equivalent unit

Completed                    25,200      100% ×25200  = 25,200

Closing WIP                   1,360           100%× 1,360       1360

Total equivalent units                                                 26,560

Completed                    25,200      100% ×25200  = 25,200

Closing WIP                   1,360           25%× 1,360        340

Total equivalent units

The Converting Department of Osaka Napkin Company uses the average cost method and had 2,000 units in work in process that were 60% complete at the beginning of the period.

A. To determine the number of whole units to be accounted for and to be assigned costs for the period, let's calculate the total equivalent units of production.

Whole units at the beginning of the period = 2,000 unit

Units started and completed during the period = 25,200 units

Whole units in process at the end of the period = 1,100 units

Total whole units to be accounted for:

= Whole units at the beginning + Units started and completed during the period + Whole units in process at the end

= 2,000 units + 25,200 units + 1,100 units

= 28,300 units

B. To determine the number of equivalent units of production for the period, we need to consider the percentage of completion for the units in process at the beginning and the units in process at the end.

Equivalent units of production for units in process at the beginning:

= Whole units at the beginning × Percentage of completion at the beginning

= 2,000 units × 60%

= 1,200 equivalent units

Equivalent units of production for units in process at the end:

= Whole units in process at the end × Percentage of completion at the end

= 1,100 units × 30%

= 330 equivalent units

Total equivalent units of production for the period:

= Equivalent units of production for units in process at the beginning + Equivalent units of production for units in process at the end + Units started and completed during the period

= 1,200 equivalent units + 330 equivalent units + 25,200 units

= 26,730 equivalent units

Therefore, the number of equivalent units of production for the period is 26,730 units.

Suppose the income elasticity of demand is -0.5 for good X. This implies that a 5% decrease in income will cause the quantity demanded of good X to a. increase by 2.5%, and X is an inferior good. b. decrease by 2.5% and X is a normal good. c. increase by 10% and X is an inferior good. d. decrease by 10% and X is a normal good.

Answers

Answer:

a. increase by 2.5%, and X is an inferior good.

Explanation:

The income elasticity of demand is the ratio between the percentage change in demand and the percentage change in income.

The change in demand caused by a 5% decrease in income is:

[tex]-0.5=\frac{\%\ change\ demand}{\%\ change\ income} \\-0.5=\frac{D}{-5\%} \\D=+2.5\%[/tex]

Demand will increase by 2.5%. A good whose demand increases when consumer income decreases is called an inferior good.

Therefore, the answer is a. increase by 2.5%, and X is an inferior good.

The price of a European call option on a stock with a strike price of $50 is $6. The stock price is $51, the continuously compounded risk-free rate (all maturities) is 6% and the time to maturity is one year. A dividend of $1 is expected in six months. What is the price of a one-year European put option on the stock with a strike price of $50?

Answers

Answer:

$3.06

Explanation:

The put call parity shows the relationship between the price of European put options and European call options of the same strike price and expiry date.

Given that:

Strike price (K) = $50

Price (C) = $6

rate (r) = 6% = 0.06

Stock price (SO) = $51

Time (T) = 1 year

Dividend (D) = $1

The period of dividend (t) = 6 months = 0.5 years

The put call parity (P) is given by the equation:

[tex]P+SO=C+Ke^{-rT}\\P=C+Ke^{-rT}-SO[/tex]

The dividend present value = [tex]De^{-rt}=1e^{-0.06*0.5}=\$0.97[/tex]

[tex]P=C+Ke^{-rT}-SO\\P=6+50e^{-0.06*1}-(51-0.97)\\P=6+47.088-50.03\\P=\$3.06[/tex]

Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge wine consumers a tax. Before the tax, 25 million bottles of wine were sold every month at a price of $6 per bottle. After the tax, 20 million bottles of wine are sold every month; consumers pay $8 per bottle (including the tax), and producers receive $5 per bottle. The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is_____________ $ per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is_________ $ per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $___________ per bottle.?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that before the tax, 25 million wine bottles were sold at price of $6 per bottle and that after the tax, 20 million bottles of wine are sold every month and the consumers pay $8 per bottle which include the tax and producers receive $5 per bottle.

The amount of tax on wine will be the difference between the price consumers pay after the tax and the price producers receive. This will be:

= $8 - $5

= $3 per bottle

The tax burden that falls on the consumers will be difference between price paid after tax and the price which is paid before the tax.

= $8 - $6

= $2 per bottle

The tax burden on the producers will be difference between price received before the tax and price received after the tax.

= $6 - $5

= $1 per bottle

At the end of the year, the fund has $600 million in assets, 40 million in debt and 16 million shares. During the year, investors received $0.80 in distributions per share. The total expense ratio is 0.4%, which is deducted at the end of the year. What is the rate of the return on the fund?
A. 38.54%
B. 27.32%
C. 35,14%
D. 25.81%
E. 34.79%

Answers

Answer:

B. 27.32%

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the Net asset value per share at the start and end of the year

NAV at the start of the year = ($500 million - $80 million) / 15 million shares = $28 per share

NAV at the end of the year = ($600 million - ( ($600 million x 0.004) + $40 million ) / 16 million shares = $34.85 per share

Return = (NAV at the end of the year - NAV at the start of the year + Distribution received) / NAV at the start of the year

Return = ( 34.85 - 28 + 0.8 ) / 28 = 0.2732 = 27.32%

Suppose the U.S. government cuts back on government spending and increases taxes in an effort to reduce the budget deficit. What would be the effect of these changes on the U.S. balance of payments?

a. There would be no change because the balance of payments always equals zero.
b. There would be an increase in the current account and an increase in the capital account.
c. There would be a decrease in the current account and a decrease in the capital account.
d. There would be a decrease in the current account and an increase in the capital account.
d. There would be an increase in the current account and a decrease in the capital account.

Answers

Answer:

d. There would be a decrease in the current account and an increase in the capital account.

Explanation:

The balance of payment in accounting typically comprises of capital account and current account, it is used for the recording of business transactions between two countries. Capital accounts are used to record any trade between two countries relating to financial assets and liabilities.

The current account is used to record trades relating to import and export of goods and services in a country.

Hence, if the U.S. government cuts back on government spending and increases taxes in an effort to reduce the budget deficit. The effect of these changes on the U.S. balance of payments is that there would be a decrease in the current account because it has no effect on the value of assets and liabilities, thereby affecting the export and import of goods and services.

Also, there would be an increase in the capital account due to the fact that the government tends to borrow more and seeks foreign investors.

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials $15 per unit

Direct labor $15 per unit

Overhead costs for the year

Variable overhead $3 per unit

Fixed overhead $120,000 per year

Units produced this year 20,000 units

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).

1) Absorption costing method:

Unitary fixed overhead= 120,000/20,000= 6

Unit product cost= direct material + direct labor + total unitary overhead

Unit product cost= 15 + 15 + 3 + 6= 39

Variable costing:

Unit product cost= direct material + direct labor + variable overhead

Unit product cost= 33

2) Ending inventory:

Absorption costing= 6,000*39= $234,000

Variable costing= 6,000*33= $198,000

3) Cost of goods sold:

Absorption costing= 14,000*39= 546,000

Variable costing= 14,000*33= 462,000

A repetitive focus plant has fixed costs of $50,000 and variable costs of $1 per unit.a. At what output does the large intermittent process become cheaper than the small one?b. At what output does the repetitive process become cheaper than the larger intermittent process?

Answers

Answer:

A.$1,125

B.$38,000

Explanation:

Using this formula:

Fixed Cost of Process B- Fixed Cost of Process A ÷Unit Variable cost of Process A – Unit Variable Cost of Process B

a.

Where:

Fixed Cost =$12,000

Fixed Cost =$3,000

Unit Variable =10

Unit Variable =2

Hence:

(12,000-3,000)/ (10-2)

=$9,000/8

= $1,125

This means that large intermittent process become cheaper than the small one by $1,125

b.

Fixed Cost =$50,000

Fixed Cost =$12,000

Unit Variable =2

Unit Variable =1

(50,000-12,000)/ (2-1)

=$38,000/1

= 38,000

This means that repetitive process become cheaper than the larger intermittent process by $38,000

You are in charge of a project that has a degree of operating leverage of 1.24. What will happen to the operating cash flows if the number of units you sell increase by 3.8 percent? Group of answer choices 4.71 percent increase 4.71 percent decrease 3.06 percent increase 3.06 percent decrease

Answers

Answer:

4.71 percent increase

Explanation:

The increase in the number of units sold is 3.8%

Degree of operating leverage is 1.24

Therefore, the operating cash flow can be calculated as follows:

Increase in the number of units×degree of operating leverage

= 3.8/100×1.24

= 0.038×1.24

= 0.0471×100

= 4.71%

Hence there is a 4.71 percent increase in the operating cash flow
