As it is given that
Lydia, who is a citizen of Italy produced scarves and purses in order to sell to the department stores in the united states keeping other things constant. So the sales would reflect an increased in the net exports of Italian as she is a producer and sell its products to the united states and at the same time it decreased or decline the net exports of united states
The net exports is
= Exports - imports
Hence, the correct option is d.
A company would like to produce 5000 products per week for 30 weeks. The Direct Material Cost for the raw materials used in the product is $1.50 per product. After producing 500 products, the company must stop production to replace a filter on the machine (the filter is replaced after producing every 500 products). The filter costs $50.00. What is the Total Cost Per Product
Answer:
Total Cost Per Product is $1.60
Explanation:
From the question the following information are derived:
Direct raw material cost per product = $1.50
The cost of the filter for producing 500 products = $50
Hence, the cost of the filter per product = $(50 / 500) = $0.10
In this question, No cost of labor is given, we can now decide the following
Total Cost per product = $(1.50 + 0.10)
= $1.60
Total Cost Per Product in this account is $1.60
If a company would like to produce 5000 products per week for 30 weeks. The Direct Material Cost for the raw materials used in the product is $1.50 per product. The Total Cost Per Product is $1.60.
Using this formula
Total cost per product=Direct raw material cost per product +( Filter costs/Production)
Where:
Direct raw material cost per product = $1.50
Costs of filter =$50
Production=500
Let plug in the formula
Total cost per product=$1.50+($50 / 500)
Total cost per product=$1.50+$0.10
Total cost per product=$1.60
Inconclusion if a company would like to produce 5000 products per week for 30 weeks. The Direct Material Cost for the raw materials used in the product is $1.50 per product. The Total Cost Per Product is $1.60.

Crane Company sells its product for $60 per unit. During 2019, it produced 48000 units and sold 40000 units (there was no beginning inventory). Costs per unit are: direct materials $15, direct labor $9, and variable overhead $3. Fixed costs are: $576000 manufacturing overhead, and $72000 selling and administrative expenses. Under absorption costing, what amount of fixed overhead is deferred to a future period?
Answer:
$96,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of fixed overhead is deferred to a future period is shown below:
= Unsold units × fixed overhead cost per unit
= 8,000 units × ($576,000 ÷ 48,000 units)
= 8,000 units × $12
= $96,000
The unsold units is
= Produced units - sold units
= 48,000 units - 40,000 units
= 8,000 units
By multiplying the unsold units with the fixed overhead cost per unit we can get the amount of fixed overhead deferred for a future period and the same is to be considered
Hewlett-Packard introduced its HP Tablet a few years after Apple launched its original iPad, about the same time Apple introduced its next-generation iPad2. HP Tablet sales were very disappointing, and Hewlett-Packard eventually killed the product. According to the text, the primary reason for the HP Tablet’s failure was due in large part to:_____
a. poor product quality
b. not satisfying customer needs on critical factors.
c. an insignifanct point of difference

Among the 1,000 policyholders of the auto insurance company, 400 are classified as low-risk drivers and 600 are classified as high-risk drivers. In each month, the probability of zero accidents for high-risk drivers is 0.80 and the probability of zero accidents for low-risk drivers is 0.90. Calculate the expected bonus payment from the insurer to the 1000 policy
Answer:
50,400
Explanation:
We are required to
Calculate the expected bonus payment from the insurer to the 1000 policyholders in one year:
X = case of 0 accident
E[X] = 400 x P(X | low risk) + 600 x P (X | high risk)
= (400 x 0.9) + (600 x 0.8)
= 840
Expected bonus = 840 x 5 dollars x 12 months
= 50400
Suppose all individuals are identical, and their monthly demand for Internet access from a certain leading provider can be represented as p = 5 minusone half q where p is price in $ per hour and q is hours per month.

Answer: B) $16
Explanation:
First lets take down the data given to us;
access from a certain leading provider can be represented as p = 5 minusone half q i.e 5 - 0.5q
Using the concept of two-part terrific which is a monopolistic market system, it is type of price discrimination where the price of goods and services are of two section namely; a lump-sum fee (expensive) as well as a per-unit charge .
Entry fees are set to be equal to the consumer surplus in the competitive equilibrium.
So we calculate our price and quantity in the competitive equilibrium first, marginal cost is equal to price
5 - 0.5q = 1
4 / 0.5 = q
q = 8
Now the intercept of the demand curve at the vertical axis is 5,
so the consumer surplus in the competitive equilibrium is:
M = (5 - 1) * 8 / 2
M = 4 * 4
M = 16
the monthly access fee will be equal to $16.

Precious Metal Mining has $17 million in sales, its ROE is 13%, and its total assets turnover is 4x. Common equity on the firm’s balance sheet is 55% of its total assets. What is its net income? Write out your answer completely. For example, 5 million should be entered as 5,000,000. Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate steps.
Answer:
net income = $303,875
Explanation:
total sales $17 million
return on equity (ROE) = 13% = net income / stockholders' equity
asset turnover = 4 = total sales / average total assets
common equity = 55% of assets
first we must determine average total assets:
average total assets = total sales / 4 = $17 million / 4 = $4.25 million
common equity = 55% x total assets = 55% x $4.25 million = $2,337,500
ROE = 13% = net income / $2,337,500
net income = 13% x $2,337,500 = $303,875
Kevin owns a retail store, and during the current year, he purchased $610,000 worth of inventory. Kevin's beginning inventory was $67,000, and his ending inventory is $77,200. During the year, Kevin withdrew $1,780 in inventory for his personal use. Calculate Kevin's cost of goods sold for the year.?
Answer:
COGS= $598,020
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Kevin owns a retail store, and during the current year, he purchased $610,000 worth of inventory. Kevin's beginning inventory was $67,000, and his ending inventory is $77,200. During the year, Kevin withdrew $1,780 in inventory for his personal use.
We need to deduct the inventory used for personal use.
To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory
COGS= 67,000 + 610,000 - 77,200 - 1,780
COGS= $598,020

Answer:
a. 5.63%
b. 5.72%
Explanation:
to calculate YTM of zero coupon bonds:
YTM = [(face value / market value)¹/ⁿ] - 1
YTM₁ = [(1,000 / 974.85)¹/ⁿ] - 1 = 2.58%YTM₂ = [(1,000 / 882.39)¹/ⁿ] - 1 = 6.46%YTM₃ = [(1,000 / 847.70)¹/ⁿ] - 1 = 5.66%a. A 5.6% coupon $1,000 par bond pays an annual coupon and will mature in 3 years. What should the yield to maturity on the bond be?
the bond's current market price:
$1,000 / 1.0566³ = $847.75$56/1.0258 + 56/1.0646² + 56/1.0566³ = $54.59 + $49.41 + $47.47 = $151.47current market price = $999.22YTM = [C + (FV - PV)/n] / [(FV + PV)/2] = [56 + (1,000 - 999.22)/3] / [(1,000 + 999.22)/2] = (56 + 0.26) / 999.61 = 5.63%
b. If at the end of the first year the yield curve flattens out at 6.5%, what will be the 1-year holding-period return on the coupon bond?
the bond's current market price:
$1,000 / 1.065³ = $827.85$56/1.0258 + 56/1.065² + 56/1.065³ = $54.59 + $49.37 + $46.36 = $150.32current market price = $978.17you invest $978.17 in purchasing the bond and you receive a coupon of $56, holding period return = $56 / $978.17 = 5.72%

Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The first step to take is to find the almond crop market value which is stated as follows:
(A) The market value of almond is = 1000 * 100 = 100,000
Thus,
The walnuts market value is = 800* 111 = 88,800
he should not make the exchange because, the almond has more value
(B)His choice is not really important, the market value of the profit and crop should be of more importance.
Disposal of Fixed Asset Equipment acquired on January 6 at a cost of $483,000, has an estimated useful life of 10 years and an estimated residual value of $63,000. a. What was the annual amount of depreciation for the Years 1-3 using the straight-line method of depreciation?
Answer: $42,000
Explanation:
Using a straight line Depreciation method means that the Equipment will be depreciated uniformly throughout it's life. i.e by the same amount.
Depreciation = (Cost - Residual Value) / Useful Life
= (483,000 - 63,000) / 10
= 420,000/10
= $42,000
The annual Depreciation amount for Year 1 - 3 is $42,000 and will be the same as long as the Equipment is in service.

We are going to accept the project only if the initial investment is at 5,715,331 or below in order to achieve the return to support the cost of capital structure of the company
Accepting a project with a higher cost will not generate enought cashflow to sustain the patyment of debt and the return expected from the stockholders therefore, will generate a economic result and investor will leave the company for other which can sustain their desired return.
Explanation:
We are going to discount the yearly cash-flow at the given rate of 12.50%
then, the terminal value which is the present value of the future period will also be discounted at this rate.
The sum of all this will be the present value of the firm.

A bond was issued three years ago at a price of $1,050 with a maturity of six years, a yield-to-maturity (YTM) of 6.50% compounded semi-annually, and a face value of $1,000 with semi-annualy coupons. What is the price of this bond today immediately after the receipt of today's coupon if the YTM has risen to 7.75% compounded semi-annually
Answer:
$967.20
Explanation:
the YTM formula = {coupon + [(face value - present value)/time]} / [(face value + present value)/2]
to determine the coupon rate we fill the equation with the known factors:
0.065 = {coupon + [(1,000 - 1,050)/12]} / [(1,000 + 1,050)/2]
0.065 = (coupon - 41.67) / 1,025
66.625 = coupon - 4.167
coupon = 66.625 + 4.167 = $70.792
three years later, the YTM = 7.5%, what is the PV? Again we use the YTM formula:
0.0775 = {70.792 + [(1,000 - x)/6]} / [(1,000 + x)/2]
0.0775(500 + 0.5x) = 70.792 + 166.67 - 0.1667x
38.75 + 0.03875x = 237.462 - 0.1667x
0.20545x = 198.712
x = 198.712 / .20545
x = $967.20
Juanita is deciding whether to buy a skirt that she wants, as well as where to buy it. Three stores carry the same skirt, but it is more convenient for Juanita to get to some stores than others. For example, she can go to her local store, located 15 minutes away from where she works, and pay a marked-up price of $103 for the skirt:
Determining opportunity cost Juanita is decidin
Store Travel Time Each Way Price of a Skirt

Juanita makes $16 an hour at work. She has to take time off work to purchase her skirt, so each hour away from work costs her $16 in lost income. Assume that returning to work takes Juanita the same amount of time as getting to a store and that it takes her 30 minutes to shop. As you answer the following questions, ignore the cost of gasoline and depreciation of her car when traveling.
Complete the following table by computing the opportunity cost of Juanita's time and the total cost of shopping at each location.

total economic cost:
local store = $103 + [1/4 hours x 2 (round trip) x $16] = $111across town = $89 + [1/2 hours x 2 (round trip) x $16] = $105neighboring city = $63 + [1 hour x 2 (round trip) x $16] = $95Juanita should purchase the skirt at the store across town because the total economic cost will be lowest ($105)

Paid $3,000 to employees for work performed during January. Received a bill for utilities for January of $3,400; the bill remains unpaid. What is the amount of total revenue to be reported on the income statement for the month of January?
