Answer:
Total cost= 4,000 + 4x
x= hours
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cost Hours
$24,000 5,000
$26,100 6,300
$34,700 7,900
$48,000 11,000
$38,300 9,250
First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost and fixed cost. We will use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (48,000 - 24,000) / (11,000 - 5,000)
Variable cost per unit= $4 per unit
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 48,000 - (4*11,000)
Fixed costs= $4,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 24,000 - (4*5,000)
Fixed costs= $4,000
Now, we can express the cost formula:
Total cost= 4,000 + 4x
x= hours
You are considering buying common stock in Grow On, Inc. The firm yesterday paid a dividend of $7.80. You have projected that dividends will grow at a rate of 9.0% per year indefinitely. If you want an annual return of 24.0%, what is the most you should pay for the stock now
Answer:
The answer is $56.68
Explanation:
Solution
We recall that:
The firm paid a dividend of =$7.80
The projected growth of dividends is at a rate = 9.0%
The annual return = 24.0%
Now,
V = ($7.80 * (1.09)/(.24 - 0.9)
= (8.502)/(.24-0.9)
= (8.502) * (-0.66)
= $56.68
Therefore, this would be the most we would pay for the stock. If we paid less than that, our return would be above the 24%.
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.

Bluebird Mfg. has received a special one-time order for 15,000 bird feeders at $3.50 per unit. Bluebird currently produces and sells 75,000 units at $7.50 each. This level represents 80% of its capacity. These bird feeders would be marketed under the wholesaler's name and would not affect Bluebird's sales through its normal channels. Production costs for these units are $4.25 per unit, which includes $2.50 variable cost and $1.75 fixed cost. If Bluebird accepts this additional business, the effect on net income will be:
Answer:
Effect on income= $15,000 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Offer= 15,000 bird feeders at $3.50 per unit.
Production costs:
$2.50 variable cost
Because it is a special offer that won't affect actual sales and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.
Effect on income= 15,000*(3.5 - 2.5)
Effect on income= $15,000 increase
You purchased GARP stock one year ago at a price of $67.67 per share. Today, you sold your stock and earned a total return of 18.79 percent. The stock paid dividends of$2.92 per share over the year. What was the capital gains yield on your investment
Answer:
14.48%
Explanation:
The capital gains yield on the investment is increase in share price divided by the initial price paid to acquire the share a year ago.
The total return formula can be used to figure the price the stock was when sold as below:
total return =P1-Po+D/Po
P1 is the current price which is unknown
Po is the initial price of $67.67
total return is 18.79%
D is the dividend of $2.92
0.1879=P1-67.67+2.92/67.67
0.1879*67.67=P1-64.75
12.72=P1-64.75
P1=12.72+64.75
P1=77.47
Capital gains yield=(77.47 -67.67)/67.67=14.48%
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)

Trudy is Jocelyn's friend. Trudy looks after Jocelyn's four-year-old son during the day so Jocelyn can go to work. During the year, Jocelyn paid Trudy $4,180 to care for her son. What is the amount of Jocelyn's child and dependent care credit if her AGI for the year was $31,800
Answer:
The answer is $810
Explanation:
Solution
Child and dependent care credit is certain percentage of qualifying care expenses based on the adjusted gross income. The maximum qualifying amount of daycare expenses is $3,000 per qualifying person.
Now from this example, Jocelyn had paid $4,180 to take care of her son and so,the qualifying amount of care expenses will be $3,000.
Since GI for the year is $31,800, the child and dependent care credit will be 27% of the qualifying care expenses that is,. $3,000 * 27% = $810

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
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.
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.
Porter's Five Forces framework has been around since the 1980's and has been very effective in evaluating industry attractiveness. Changes in the dynamic nature of industries has not impacted the usefulness of the tool. The tool has no limitations. Group of answer choices
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Porter's Five Forces framework is a list of factors which provide an explanation to the forces affecting competition in industries. These five forces include;
1. Competition in the industry
2. Potential of new entrants into the industry
3. Power of suppliers
4. Power of customers
5. Threat of substitute products
Over the years, these five forces have been used in explaining the structure of certain industries. The framework however has limitations, some of which include,
1. It is not in terms with current realities, such as new advancements in technology which were not available as at the time the framework was formed.
2. Some companies operate different structures, whereas, the framework classifies each industry under one structure.
3. There is the possibility of industries to give equal consideration to all five factors, whereas in reality only some of the factors might be applicable to them.
4. Individual companies instead of industries now use the framework to make their business analysis which is not the real reason for the development of the framework. It was meant for industries as a whole.
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
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.

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

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

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
r is 12%
PV=$83,657.77*(1+12%)^-10=$ 26,935.56
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

You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products: guppy gummies raskels, and cannies. 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.

You own shares in Yahoo that were purchased at a price of $ 24 per share. Microsoft has offered to purchase Yahoo and buy your shares at a price of $ 34 per share. What will be your return if you tender your shares to Microsoft and the deal is completed
Answer:
Return = 41.67%
Explanation
The return on a share is the sum of e capital gains and the dividend received all expressed as a percentage of the of the amount invested.
In the absence of the payment of dividend, the return
Return = capital gain/ Price of share × 100
Capital gain= Price of shares now - cost of shares
Capital gain = 34- 24 = 10
Return = 10/24 × 100 = 41.66666667

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.
