What would be the real rates of return on the same deposit if there was a simultaneous 10% increase in all dollar prices
Answer:
Full question is '1. Calculate the dollar rates of return from a £10,000 deposit in a London bank in a year when the interest rate on pounds is 10 percent and the $/£ exchange rate moves from $1.50/£ to $1.38/£. 2. What would be the real rates of return on the same deposit if there was a simultaneous 10% increase in all dollar prices?"
1. In current period, Dollar price of deposit = £10,000 x ($1.50/£) = $15,000
After 1 year, Pound interest = £10,000 x 10% = £1,000
After 1 year, Pound value of (Deposit + Interest) = £(10,000 + 1,000) = £11,000
After 1 year, Dollar value of (D+I) = £11,000 x ($1.38/£) = $15,180
After one year, Dollar rate of return = ($15,180/$15,000) - 1
After 1 year, Dollar rate of return = 1.012 - 1
After 1 year, Dollar rate of return = 0.012
After 1 year, Dollar rate of return = 1.2%
2. As calculated above, After 1 year, Nominal Dollar rate of return = 1.2%
Note: After 1 year, Real Dollar rate of return = Nominal Dollar rate of return - Inflation Rate
Real Dollar rate of return = 1.2% - 10%
Real Dollar rate of return = -8.8%

Hence, an owner of a corporation is known as a stockholder.
Given a total population of 1 million, a working age population of 500,000, a labor force of 400,000, 300,000 employed, and 100,000 unemployed... ..the labor force participation rate is:
Answer:
the labor force participation rate is 80%
Explanation:
The computation of the labor force participation rate is given below:
Labor force participation rate = labor force ÷ working-age population × 100
= 400,000 ÷ 500,000 × 100
= 4 ÷ 5 × 100
= 80%
hence, the labor force participation rate is 80%

Newhard Company assigns overhead cost to jobs on the basis of 115% of direct labor cost. The job cost sheet for Job 313 includes $29,710 in direct materials cost and $10,600 in direct labor cost. A total of 1,750 units were produced in Job 313. Required: a. What is the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 313? b. What is the unit product cost for Job 313?
Answer:a.Total manufacturing costs for Job 313 =$52,500
Unit Product Cost for Job 313=$30
Explanation:
Total manufacturing costs=Direct materials+Direct labor costs+Overhead costs
But Overhead cost =115% of direct labor cost
= 115% x $10,600
=$12,190
Total manufacturing costs =$29,710 + $10,600+$12,190
=$52,500
Unit Product Cost=Total Manufacturing costs/ Total Number of Units Produced =$52,500 /1,750 units
=$30
Marshall has received an inheritance and wants to invest a sum of money today that will yield $4,300 at the end of each of the next 10 years. Assuming he can earn an interest rate of 5% compounded annually, how much of his inheritance must he invest today
Answer:
$2,639.83
Explanation:
The value expected in the next 10 years is known as the future value while the amount to be invested today is the present value amount, hence, using the formula below which relates the present value to the future value, we can determine the present value as appropriate:
PV=FV/(1+r)^n
PV=present value=the unknown
FV=future value=$4,300
r=rate of return=5%
n=number of years that investment would last =10
PV=$4,300/(1+5%)^10
PV=$4,300/1.05^10
PV=$4,300/1.62889463
PV=$2,639.83
You have checked model income statements and estimate your payroll expense will be 28% of revenue. You expect sales to be $312,112 per year. What should you budget MONTHLY for payroll?
a) $7,283
b) $8,480
c) $9,347
d) $12,960
Answer: a) $7,283
Explanation:
You expect payroll expense to be 28% of annual revenue which is $312,112 per year.
Annual payroll = 28% * 312,112
= $87,391.36 per year
The monthly figure will therefore be:
= 87,391.36/12 months
= $7,282.61
= $7,283
a debt of $1,000 is incurred at t 5 0. What is the amount of four equal payments at t 5 1, 2, 3, and 4 that will repay the debt if money is worth 10 percent compounded per period
Answer: $315.47
Explanation:
As this requires equal annual payments, it makes it an annuity. The $1,000 debt will be the present value of the annuity so a present value of annuity formula can be used:
1,000 = Annuity * ( 1 - ( 1 + rate) ^ -n) / rate
1,000 = Annuity * ( 1 - ( 1 + 10%)⁻⁴ ) / 10%
1,000 = Annuity * 3.169865
Annuity = 1,000/3.169865
Annuity = $315.47
In 2001, records showed that local stocks of fish were down worldwide. Yet, records of harvests indicated that fish were being taken at record rates. What was actually happening
Answer: China was making up figures
Explanation:
This question is based on the documentary film, ''The End of the Line'' which was done on the effects of fishing worldwide. In 2001, records showed that local stocks of fish were down around the world yet worldwide figures were increasing at a record rate.
The United Nations hired someone to investigate this and what he found was that Communist China was inflating the amount of fish they were harvesting so that they could look more efficient.
When the government imposes a tax on a firm that generates external costs, the tax is A) always borne entirely by the firm. B) always borne entirely by the consumer. C) usually borne by both the firm and the consumer. D) borne only by the government.
Answer:
C) usually borne by both the firm and the consumer.
Explanation:
Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.
There are three (3) types of taxation used by the government, these are;
1. Progressive taxation: it involves charging individuals having higher incomes a higher percentage of their total income.
For instance, John pays 30% on $70,000 and Joyce pays 10% on $45.000.
2. Proportional taxation: it involves charging both lower and higher income earners equally in proportion to their income.
For instance, John pays 20% on $50,000 and Joyce pays 20% on $36,000.
3. Regressive taxation: it involves charging individuals with low incomes a higher percentage of their total income and vice-versa.
For instance, John pays 15% on $60,000 and Joyce pays 20% on $36,000.
When the government imposes a tax on a firm that generates external costs, the tax is usually borne by both the firm and the consumer.
This ultimately implies that, the tax incidence falls on both the manufacturer or producer of the goods and services, as well as the consumers of these finished goods.
For financial accounting purposes, what is the total amount of product costs incurred to make 20,250 units
Answer:
$411,075
Explanation:
Calculation for the total amount of product costs incurred to make 20,250 units
First step is to calculate Variable manufacturing cost per unit
Direct materials 7.70
Direct labor Variable 4.70
Variable manufacturing overhead 2.20
Variable manufacturing cost per unit $14.6
Second step is to calculate Total variable manufacturing cost
Variable manufacturing cost per unit$14.6
*Number of units produced 20,250 units
=Total variable manufacturing cost $295,650
($14.6*20,250)
Second step is to calculate Total fixed manufacturing cost
Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit $5.70
xNumber of units used to calculate fixed cost per unit 20,250 units
=Total fixed manufacturing cost $115,425
($5.70*20,250)
Now let calculate Total product cost

Therefore the total amount of product costs incurred to make 20,250 units is $411,075
Avocado, Inc. purchased a $100,000 machine and deducted $70,000 of depreciation before selling it for $80,000 (after holding it for more than 1 year). How much gain does Avocado recognize
Answer:Avocado recognizes a gain of $50,000
Explanation:
Book Value of machine = Purchase Price - Depreciation
$ 100,000 - $70,000 = $30,000
Avocado sold the machine at = $80,000
Therefore, Gain/(loss) recognized = Selling Price - Book Value on date of sale
$80,000 - $30000 = $50,000
Avocado recognizes a gain of $50,000
Avocado recognizes a gain of $50,000
The calculation is as follows:
Book Value of machine = Purchase Price - Depreciation
= $ 100,000 - $70,000
= $30,000
And,
Avocado sold the machine at = $80,000
So,
Gain/(loss) recognized = Selling Price - Book Value on date of sale
= $80,000 - $30000
= $50,000

True or False: The value of the price elasticity of demand is equal to the slope of the demand curve. True False
Answer:
false
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
The elasticity of demand is inversely related to the slope. The higher the value of elasticity of demand, the lower the slope and vice verse
Assume that VCRs and videotapes are complements. When the price of VCRs fall and the price of plastic (used to make videotapes) rise, what should happen to price and quantity of videotapes. What happens to equilibrium price and quantity
Explanation:
When the price of VCRs fall and the price of plastic (used to make videotapes) rise, then there will be an increase in the price and decrease in demand and for videotapes since they are strong compliments.
Consider this analogy, people used to need videotapes in other to record on VCRs; (just a sim card is needed so as to fully use a phone). Hence, as the price of the material (plastic) used to make videotapes rises; ultimately the videotape prices themselves would increase; leading to lesser demand.
As a result of this, we can expect the equilibrium price and quantity to decrease.

Answer:
B. Accounts Receivable $207,840
Explanation:
Direct material cost $83,000
Direct labor cost $41,000
Manufacturing overhead applied = $41,000 * 120% = $49,200
Total cost = $83,000 + $41,000 + $49,200 = $173,200
Markup at the rate of 20% of total cost = $173,200 * 20% = $34,640(Gross profit)
Gross profit + Cost = Revenue
$173,200 + $34,640 = $207,840
Credit sales will be recorded as follows:
Dr. Accounts receivable - $207,840

Identify three major groups of people involved in the marketing research process, and then give at least one example of an unethical behavior sometimes practiced by each group.
Answer:
1. Data collectors
2. Statisticians
3. Report writers/presenters
Explanation:
The marketing research process is a process by which individuals working for a firm, group up to identify problems in the firm's market or with the firm's commodity, design research plans, seek data on identified problems, compile data, analyze data, and give reports.
Ethics is a philosophical principle which defines what is right from what is wrong. Unethical behavior or practices are those acts perceived as wrong, as pertains to the role an individual should play in an institution.
(A) Data Collectors
Due to the tediousness of the data collection process in most researches, data collectors leave gaps in field work. Examples of these gaps or unethical behaviors include:
- Underrepresentation of study groups - e.g. the control group, experimental group, interviewees, etcetera; depending on the method of data collection.
- Use of inappropriate data collection method for the research
- Working outside of the purpose of the research.
(B) Statisticians
This team is in charge of all computation and figure management. The figures are derived from data collected and are used to give direction and meaning to each set of data. Common unethical behaviors in this field include:
- Replacement of lost data or figures with new data or figures which were not gotten from field work or the data collection process.
- Over approximation or under approximation of figures and results; to suit personal result-interpretation desires.
(C) Report Writers/Presenters
Some unethical practices here include:
- Deliberate removal of some aspects of the project work; to simplify the report writing process
