Consider the baggage check-in process of a small airline. Check-in data indicates that from 9am to 10am, 190 passengers checked in. Moreover, based on counting the number of passengers waiting in line, airport management found that the average number of passengers waiting for check-in was 56.
Required:
How long did the average passenger have to wait in line?
Answer:
17.68 minutes
Explanation:i
In order to calculate the average time passenger had to wait in line, we would first divide the average number of passengers check-in in with the passengers checked in from 9 am to 10 am (which was the highest number of check-ins of the day). Then we would multiply that number by 60 minutes. As shown below:
First,
= 56 average number of passengers checked-in / 190 passengers checked-in from 9 to 10 am
= 0.2947
Then
= 0.2947 x 60 minutes
= 17.68 minutes
Hence, 17.68 minutes did the average passenger wait in line.

Which of the following statements accurately describe the effect of the increase in government borrowing?
a. National saving decreases by less than $20 billion.
b. Investment increases by less than $20 billion.
c. Public saving decreases by exactly $20 billion.
d. Private saving increases by less than $20 billion.
Answer:
d. Private saving increases by less than $20 billion.
Explanation:
Because the interest rate has increased, investment and national saving decline and private saving increases. The increase in government borrowing reduces public saving. From the figure you can see that total loanable funds (and thus both investment and national saving) decline by less than $20 billion, while public saving declines by $20 billion and private saving rises by less than $20 billion.

K Company estimates that overhead costs for the next year will be $2,967,000 for indirect labor and $860,000 for factory utilities. The company uses direct labor hours as its overhead allocation base. If 86,000 direct labor hours are planned for this next year, how much overhead would be assigned to a product requiring 6 direct labor hours
Answer:
$267.00
Explanation:
First and foremost, it should be borne in mind that the overhead per direct labor hour is the total forecast overhead costs for next year divided by the planned direct labor hours, in essence, we simply determine plantwide overhead allocation rate, which is the basis for determining the amount of direct to be assigned to 6 direct labor hours
plantwide overhead allocation rate=(indirect labor overhead+factory utilities)/planned direct labor
indirect labor overhead cost=$2,967,000
factory utilities=$860,000
planned direct labor hours=86,000
plantwide overhead allocation rate=($2,967,000+$860,000)/86000
plantwide overhead allocation rate=$44.50
overhead allocation to a product requiring 6 direct labor hours=6*$44.50
overhead allocation to a product requiring 6 direct labor hours=$267.00
Both the demand curve and the supply curve are straight lines. If the price is $4 but only 6 units are bought and sold, producer surplus will be
Answer:
$12
Explanation:
Producer's surplus=1/2*Q*P( Just like the formula for the area of a triangle which is 1/2*base*height)
P is the price of the item which is $4
Q is the quantity bought and sold, which is 6 units in this case, hence, the producer surplus is shown thus
producer's surplus=1/2*$4*6
producer's surplus=$12

A bond has a coupon rate of 8% and matures in 10 years. What are its expected cash flows if this bonds have a principal amount of $1000 and pay interest semi-annually
Answer:
$1080
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the expected cash flows
Since the bonds have a principal amount of the amount of $1000 first step is to calculate the Cash flow CO1
CO1=$1000(.08)/2
CO1=$80/2
CO1= $40
Second step is to calculate the Frequency of PMT
Frequency of PMT= 10 years x 2 (semi-anually)
Frequency of PMT= 20
Now let determine the Cash Flow CO10
Cash Flow CO10=1000+80
Cash Flow CO10=$1080
Therefore the expected cash flows is $1080

The desired ending inventory is 10% higher than the beginning inventory, which was 1,100 units. Budgeted purchases of units in April would be:
Answer:
Total budgeted purchases = $65,826
Explanation:
Budgeted purchases
Sales forecast = 6,100 units
Ending inventory 1,100 * 110% = 1,210 units
Required units = 7,310
- Beginning inventory = 1,100 units
Units to be purchased = 6,210
Cost per unit = $10.60
Total budgeted purchases = $65,826
g A company has beginning inventory of 16 units at a cost of $24 each on February 1. On February 3, it purchases 34 units at $26 each. 22 units are sold on February 5. Using the FIFO periodic inventory method, what is the cost of the 22 units that are sold
Answer:
$188
Explanation:
FIFO method assumes that the units to arrive first will be sold first. Hence the cost of sales will be valued using the prices of earlier or older units.
Cost of Sales = 16 units x $24 + 6 units x $26
= $188
Thus, the cost of the 22 units that are sold is $188.

A downside to absorption costing is: ____________
a. not including fixed manufacturing overhead in the cost of the product
b. that it is not really useful for managerial decisions
c. that it is not allowable under GAAP
d. that it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis
Answer: that it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis
Explanation:
Absorption costing refers to the managerial accounting method that is used for capturing all the costs that are associated with the manufacturing of a product. In this case, the direct costs and the indirect costs are all accounted for through the use of this method.
Some of the downside to absorption costing include the fact that it isn't
helpful in a scenario whereby improvement in the financial and operational efficiency is to be analysed. Also, the true reflection of the profit of a business may not be given and it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis.

A loan officer states, "Thousands of dollars can be saved by switching to a 15-year mortgage from a 30-year mortgage." Calculate the difference in payments on a 30-year mortgage at an interest rate of .75% a month versus a 15-year mortgage with an interest rate of .7% a month. Both mortgages are for $100,000 and have monthly payments. What is the difference in total dollars that will be paid to the lender under each loan?
Answer:
$113,465
Explanation:
Calculation to determine difference in total dollars that will be paid to the lender under each loan
First step is to Calculate the difference in payments on a 30-year mortgage at an interest rate of .75% a month
$100,000 = PMT([1 / (0.0075)] − 1 / {(0.0075)[(1.0075)]^30 × 12})
PMT = $804.62
Second step is to Calculate the difference in payments on a 15-year mortgage at an interest rate of .7% a month
$100,000 = PMT([1 / (0.007)] − 1 / {(0.007 )[ 1.007)]^15 × 12})
PMT = $ 978.87
Now let determine the Total difference
Total difference = ($804.62 × 12 × 30) − ($978.87 × 12 × 15)
Total difference= $113,465
Therefore difference in total dollars that will be paid to the lender under each loan is $113,465
