Answer:
SKYLINE = 6.96%, PROSPER = 6.94%.
Explanation:
So, in the question above we are given the following parameters or information or data as;
=> Amount of bank loan been seeked for = $12000.
=> "Prosper Bank expects that it could recover $10,000 if you defaulted while Skyline thinks it would only recoup $9000."
=> " Skyline puts the probability of repayment at 97% while Prosper only has it at 96%."
=>" both banks are aiming to earn 6%."
So, for both banks we will be making use of the formula below:
L × (1 + RER) = POR × L × (1 + IRCr) + (1 - POR) × RCD.
Where L = loan, RER = required earning rate, POR = probability of repayment, IRCr = interest rate charged and RCD = Recovery in case of default.
(A). FOR PROSPER BANK:
12000 × ( 1 + 6%) = 96% × 12000 × (1 + IRCr) + (1 - 96% ) × 10000.
SOLVING FOR IRCr, we have;
interest rate charged = 6.94%.
(B). FOR SKYLINE BANK;
12000 × (1 + 6%) = 97% × 12000 × (1 + IRcr ) + (1 - 97%) × 9000.
IRCr =6.96%.
The following costs are budgeted for Harlow Corporation for next year: The costs above are based on a level of activity of 20,000 units. Assuming that this activity is within the relevant range, what would total cost per unit be for Harlow if the level of activity was only 18,000 units?
Answer:
$48.50
Explanation:
Harlow Corporation
First step is to calculate for Variable cost per unit:
Variable cost per unit =
$270,000 ÷ 20,000 units
= $13.50 per unit
Second step is to calculate for the cost function
Cost function :
Y = $630,000 + $13.50X
Y= $630,000 + $13.50(18,000)
Y=$630,000+$243,000
Y = $873,000
Therefore:
Total cost / number of units = total cost per unit$
Total cost =$873,000
Number of units= 18,000
$873,000 ÷ 18,000
= $48.50
Therefore the total cost per unit is $48.50
In a closed system one kilogram of carbon dioxide (CO_2) is expanded reversibly from 30 degree C and 200 kPa to 100 kPa pressure. If the expansion is polytropic with n = 1.27, determine the total work, the change in total internal energy, and the total heat transferred in [kJ], Note that for CO_2, R = 188.9 J/kg.K and c_v = 655 J/kg.K. W = -29.05 kJ, DeltaU = -27.19 kJ, Q = 1.860 kJ
Answer:
the total work W = 29.05 kJ
the change in total internal energy is [tex]\mathbf{\Delta U = - 27.19 \ kJ}[/tex]
the total heat transferred in [kJ] is Q = 1.860 kJ
Explanation:
Given that
mass of carbon dioxide in the closed system = 1 kg
Temperature [tex]T_1= 30 ^0 C[/tex] = (273+30 ) K = 303 K
Pressure [tex]P_1 = \ 200 \ kPa[/tex]
Pressure [tex]P_2 = 100 \ kPa[/tex]
polytropic expansion n = 1.27
Note that we are also given the following data set:
R = 188.9 J/kg.K
c_v = 655 J/kg.K
So; for a polytropic process ; [tex]PV^{1.27} = c[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}= ( \dfrac{V_1}{V_2})^{n-1} = (\dfrac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{n-1}{n}[/tex]
[tex]T_2 = T_1 [\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}]^{\frac{n-1}{n}[/tex]
[tex]T_2 = 303 [\dfrac{100}{200}]^{\frac{1.27-1}{1.27}[/tex]
[tex]T_2 = 261.48 \ K[/tex]
Since the system does not follow the first order of thermodynamics; To calculate the total work by using the expression:
[tex]W = \dfrac{P_1V_1-P_2V_2}{n-1} = \dfrac{mR(T_1-T_2)}{n-1}[/tex]
[tex]W = \dfrac{1*188.9(303-261.48)}{1.27-1}[/tex]
W = 29048.62222 J
W = 29.05 kJ
Thus, the total work W = 29.05 kJ
The change in internal energy can be expressed by the formula:
[tex]\Delta U = mc_v (T_2-T_1)[/tex]
[tex]\Delta U = 1*655(261.48-303)[/tex]
[tex]\Delta U = -27195.6 \ J[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\Delta U = - 27.19 \ kJ}[/tex]
Hence; the change in total internal energy is [tex]\mathbf{\Delta U = - 27.19 \ kJ}[/tex]
Finally; to determine the total heat transferred in [kJ]; we go by the expression for the first order of thermodynamics which say:
Total Heat Q = ΔU + W
Q = (-27.19 + 29.05)kJ
Q = 1.860 kJ
Hence; the total heat transferred in [kJ] is Q = 1.860 kJ
Oriole Corporation reported the following for 2020: net sales $1,235,200, cost of goods sold $721,800, selling and administrative expenses $338,600, and an unrealized holding gain on available-for-sale debt securities $15,700.
Required:
Prepare a statement of comprehensive income, using (a) the one statement format, and (b) the two statement format. (Ignore income taxes and EPS).
Answer:
In both formats, net income is equal to $190,500
Explanation:
(a) the one statement format
The single step statement format is an income statement format that shows only one category of income and only one category of expenses. From the question, this can be prepared as follow:
Income = Net sales + unrealized holding gain on available-for-sale debt securities = $1,235,200 + $15,700 = $1,250,900
Expenses = Cost of goods sold + Selling and administrative expenses = $721,800 + $338,600 = $1,060,400

Rational choice theorists would define the behavior of corporate executives who outsource many jobs to countries where the cost of labor is substantially less than in the United States as being:
Answer: Instrumental
Explanation:
Rational choice theory, is a school of thought which is based on the assumption that individuals will choose a course of action which goes in line with what they personally prefer.
For the instrumental rationality, it has to do with looking for the most cost effective method in order to achieve a particular objective. Therefore, the behavior of corporate executives who outsource jobs to other countries where labor cost is cheaper than in the United States is defined as being instrumental.
Imperial Jewelers manufactures and sells a gold bracelet for $408.00. The company’s accounting system says that the unit product cost for this bracelet is $268.00 as shown below:
Direct materials $147
Direct labor 85
Manufacturing overhead 36
Unit product cost $268
The members of a wedding party have approached Imperial Jewelers about buying 30 of these gold bracelets for the discounted price of $368.00 each. The members of the wedding party would like special filigree applied to the bracelets that would require Imperial Jewelers to buy a special tool for $452 and that would increase the direct materials cost per bracelet by $9. The special tool would have no other use once the special order is completed.
To analyze this special order opportunity, Imperial Jewelers has determined that most of its manufacturing overhead is fixed and unaffected by variations in how much jewelry is produced in any given period. However, $15.00 of the overhead is variable with respect to the number of bracelets produced. The company also believes that accepting this order would have no effect on its ability to produce and sell jewelry to other customers. Furthermore, the company could fulfill the wedding party’s order using its existing manufacturing capacity.
Required:
a. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the special order from the wedding party?
b Should the company accept the special order?
Answer:
2352, Yes
Explanation:
a) Incremental Cost = Direct Material cost + Direct labour cost + Filgree + Manufacturing overhead cost
= 147 + 85 + 9 + 15 = 256
Total additional Cost = 256 x 21 = 5376
Incremental Revenue = 368
Total additional Revenue = 368 x 21 = 7728
Incremental net operating income = Total additional revenue - total additional cost
= 7728 - 5376 = 2352
b) As Incremental net operating income is positive, company is earning from the special order. Yes, it should accept it
The relevant costs for a decision to accept the special order are :
1. Incremental Revenue from the special order
2. incremental variable cost
3. The cost of the special tool
Unit variable cost = 147+ 85 + 9 + 15 = $256
The balance of manufacturing overhead would be incurred either way. Therefore, they are not relevant for the decision
Sales revenue from special order $
(21× $368) 7728
The Variable cost of special order $
(21× $256) (5376 )
Financial advantage 2358
The company should accept the special order, as it will increase its profit by $2352

Answer:
Moral obligation bond
Explanation:
Moral obligation bond is defined as a revenue bond that is issued by a municipality or by some other government body.
The benefits of moral obligation bonds are tax exemption and a moral pledge that there will be no default on the bond.
Usually a reserve fund is established in case the issuing body is unable to meet its debt obligations.
In this scenario the bond is issued with a covenant that states "if revenue collections are insufficient, the state legislature has the authority, but not the obligation, to make an annual apportionment of funds necessary to meet debt service requirements."
A chain of supermarkets specializing in gourmet food, has been using the average cost method to value its inventory. During the current year, the company changed to the first-in, first-out method of inventory valuation. The president of the company reasoned that this change was appropriate since it would more closely match the flow of physical goods. This change should be reported on the financial statements as A. Change in accounting estimate. B. Affecting only future periods. C. Cumulative-effect type accounting change. D. Correction of an error.
Answer: Affecting only future periods.
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a chain of supermarkets specializing in gourmet food, that has been using the average cost method to value its inventory changed to the FIFO method in the current year.
This change should be reported on the financial statements as a retroactive effect type of an accounting change. This is necessary because it affects future period and in order to maintain comparability and consistency.
Which of the following statements concerning the selection of risk management techniques and insurance market conditions is (are) true? I.It's easier to purchase affordable insurance during a "soft" market than during a "hard" market.II.Retention is used more during a "soft" market than during a "hard" market.I onlyII onlyboth I and IIneither I nor II
Answer:
I.It's easier to purchase affordable insurance during a "soft" market than during a "hard" market
I only
Explanation:
When a purchaser of insurance wants to make a purchase he analyses the market to get a favourable condition that reduces risk and loss.
The market condition can be a soft market or hard market.
Soft market is one in which potential sellers are more than potential buyers. So supply exceeds demand. Buyers are able to buy affordable insurance.
Hard market on the other hand is when there is an upswing in market cycle. Premiums increase and capacity for insurance decreases.
It is more difficult to get affordable insurance in this market

The following is a description of the conversion cycle of Central Production Limited:
The conversion cycle of the company is triggered by a report from the warehouse. When the quantity of an inventory item falls below a pre-set minimum level, the warehouse manager sends an online inventory status report to production department advising them to schedule a production batch run for the item.
Upon receipt of the report, the production clerk assesses the digital bill of materials and the route sheet files for the item to be produced and adds the production details to the online production schedule.
The system automatically adds a record to the open work order file and sends an online work order to the work centre supervisor’s computer and to the accounting clerk’s computer.
The work centre supervisor receives the work order from his computer and print hard-copy move tickets and materials requisitions for each production process. Production employees take the materials requisitions to store clerk and receives the materials and subassemblies needed to perform the production tasks. If additional materials beyond the standard amount is needed, the work centre supervisor prepares additional materials requisitions.
Production employees complete job time tickets after completing a production process to record the time spent on the job. The job time tickets are then sent together with the move tickets to the accounting department.
After releasing the materials into production, the store clerk updates the material inventory records and send the materials requisitions to accounting department. The clerk prepares a journal voucher and posts to the general ledger material control account at the end of each day.
The accounting clerk assesses the work orders and set up a work-in-process account for a production batch. Throughout the production period, the clerk also receives move tickets, job tickets, and materials requisitions, which he uses to post to the work-in-process account. At the end of each day, the accounting clerk prepares a digital journal voucher and post it to the general ledger work-in- process and finished goods control accounts.
Identify the risks exist in the conversion cycle of Central Production Limited. (10 marks, maximum 300 words)
Answer: Provided in the explanation section
Explanation:
Conversion Cycle is the cycle which track records for the arrangement of crude material to completed products.
Here on the best possible perspective all in all of the procedure:
1. Triger by distribution center dept ( Raw material Keeper)
2. Produnction chief updates the request to be finished and include further up and coming requests assuming any.
3.It will produce online request slip and straightforwardly post to chiefs tab + bookkeeper tab
4. Manager take material and issue to gathering dept ( abundance material necessity is given by his position too)
5. Time + work both finished card sare sent to Accountanct
6. When request finished Accountant update the WIP just as Inventory in books.
Hazard in the Conversion Cycle:
After receipt of material and charging it to FG as Inventory in books
- Risk is hindering of assets in overabundance keeping of stock, As material level down after a specific level automatc trigger alternative is set up, which cautions the productin withdraw. to decide the future prerequisite according to the productin request in hands ( Good control set up)
Second, Online workorder to Supervisior, All chief gets their no. of creation request ( to be finished on the web) - Good control set up
Third, Supervisor on hand, place the material prerequisite ( and if any overabundance necessity - " NO FURTHER APPROVAL" is made to store representative. here hazard is medium over the demand well beyond the Order indicates by the creation dept.
Fourthly, creation representatives itself are getting ready thier work tickets ( " NO AUTHENTICATION")- As tickets are finished by creation representatives itself control of information info or its endorsement is inadequate.
Fifth, Accountant decides himeslef the WIP , FG of the request over the crude information got as employment card, time card, material order Risk is bookkeeper simply need to verifiy the information from the information got from the creation L2 official as opposed to himself keep up the quantities of the activity.
From above it is anything but difficult to catch the degree of hazard at different level in the above procedure of Central creation Limited.
The law of diminishing marginal productivity states that:________.

b. As you expand output, your marginal productivity eventually declines
c. As you expand output, the total product eventually increases
d. None of the above
2. What are economies of scale?
a. decreasing average costs as production increases
b. increasing average costs as production increases
c. increasing fixed costs as production increases
d. none of the above
3. What are economies of scope?
a. lower average costs when multiple different products are produced
b. higher average costs when multiple different products are produced
c. Constant average costs when multiple different products are produced
d. none of the above
Answer:
b. As you expand output, your marginal productivity eventually declines
a. decreasing average costs as production increases
a. lower average costs when multiple different products are produced
Explanation:
The law of diminishing marginal returns states that as more unit of variable factors of production are added to production, output would increase at first but after a period, it would increase at a negative rate.
Economies of scale is the reduction in cost thay accrue to firms as they increase production. For example, a supplier might give a firm a discount for buying in bulk.
Economies of scope states that average cost would fall as the production of similar products increases. For example, a fashion designer who makes women's clothings decides to make scarfs with the scraps of clothes left.

Calculate the Social Security and Medicare deductions for the following employee (assume a tax rate of 6.2% on $128,400 for Social Security and 1.45% for Medicare): (Round your answers to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
Social Security tax = $7,960.80
Medicare tax = $1,861.80
Explanation:
Let's begin by listing out the information given:
Social Security tax rate = 6.2%,
Medicare tax rate = 1.45%,
Income = $128,400
To calculate for the deductions(tax), we use the formula:
Tax = Tax rate * Income
For Social Security
Tax = Tax rate * Income
Tax = 6.2% * $128,400
T = 0.062 * $128,400
T = $7,960.80
∴ $7,960.80 of the employee's income is deducted for Social Security tax
For Medicare
Tax = Tax rate * Income
Tax = 1.45% * $128,400
T = 0.0145 * $128,400
T = $1,861.80
∴ $1,861.80 of the employee's income is deducted for Medicare tax

Answer:
1. Prepare a schedule of accounts receivable for Calderone Company at January 31, 2019.
Since there is not enough room here, I prepared an excel spreadsheet. Since we are not told the credit terms of the sales, I assumed all the sales were more not past due.
2. Should the total of your accounts receivable schedule agree with the balance of the Accounts Receivable account in the general ledger at January 31, 2019?
Of course, the balance of the accounts receivable control account should equal the total balance of the accounts receivable schedule. Even if some accounts are written off (bad debt), both the accounts receivable schedule and the general ledger accounts receivable should show that write off.

Byer, a plastics processor, is considering the purchase of a high-speed extruder as one option. The new extruder would cost $50,000 and would have a residual value of $3000 at the end of its 6-year life. The annual operating expenses of the new extruder would be $5000. The other option that Byer has is to rebuild its existing extruder. The rebuilding would require an investment of $30,000 and would extend the life of the existing extruder by 6 years. The existing extruder has annual operating costs of $13,000 per year and does not have a residual value. Byer's discount rate is 12%. Using net present value analysis, which option is the better option and by how much? Present Value of $1 Periods 12% 14% 16% 6 0.507 0.456 0.410 8 0.404 0.351 0.305 10 0.322 0.270 0.227 12 0.257 0.208 0.168Present Value of Annuity of $1 Periods 12% 14% 16% 6 4.111 3.889 3.685 8 4.968 4.639 4.344 10 5.650 5.216 4.833 12 6.194 5.660 5.197
Answer:

Consider the following data for two products of Gitano Manufacturing. (Loss amounts should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your intermediate calculations and "OH rate and cost per unit" answers to 2 decimal places.)
Product A Product B
Number of units produced 11,500 units 1.700 units
Direct labor cost ($29 per DLH) 0.16 DLH per unit 0.24 DLH per unit
Direct materials cost $2.10 per unit $3.10 per unit
Activity Overhead costs
Machine setup $94,104
Materials handling 53,000
Quality control inspections 73.200
$220,304
Required
a. Using direct labor hours as the basis for assigning overhoad costs, determine the total production cost per unit for each product line.
b. If the market price for Product A is $28.68 and the market price for Product B is $58, determine the profit or loss per unit for each.
c. Consider the following additional information about these two product lines. If ABC is used for assigning overhead costs to what is the cost per unit for Product A and for Product B?
Answer:
a. Product A $257,830 , Product B $57,086
b. Product A $71,990 , Product B $41,514
c. Hie, for this part of the question there is missing information regarding the Activities for the two Products for each Activity Center.
However the Procedure to deal with the required is explained below :
Step 1 : Determine the Overhead Absorption Rate for Each Activity Center
(We have three Activity Centers: Machine setup, Materials handling: Quality control inspections )
Overhead Absorption Rate = Total Overhead (for each) / Total Number of Activity
Step 2: Absorb the Costs in the products using the Rate for each cost center and the number of activity incurred in each cost center for the two Products
Overhead (Activity Center) = Overhead Absorption Rate× Activity Specific to the Product.
Step 3 : Determine the Total Costs
Total Cost for one Product would include the Total Costs for each Activity Center (which are your overheads) plus the Direct Labor and Direct Material Costs as Calculated in Part b.
Explanation:
Part a
Total Production Cost = Direct Costs + Indirect costs (overheads)
First determine the predetermined rate based on direct labor hours.
Total direct labor hours.
Product A (11,500×0.16) = 1,840
Product B (1.700×0.24) = 408
Total = 2,248
Predetermined rate = total overhead cost / total direct labor hours
= $220,304 / 2,248
= $98 per labor hour
Assigning Overhead Cost
Total Overhead Costs
Product A (1,840×$98) = 180,320
Product B (408×$98) = 39,984
Total = 220,304
Total Costs
Product A Product B
Direct labor cost
Product A ( 1,840×$29) 53,360
Product B (408×$29) 11,832
Direct materials cost
Product A ( 11,500×$2.10) 24,150
Product B (1.700×$3.10) 5,270
Overheads
Product A 180,320
Product B 39,984
Total Costs 257,830 57,086
Part b.
Profit = Selling Price - Expenses
Product A Product B
Sales
Product A ( 11,500×$28.68) 329,820
Product B (1.700×$58) 98,600
Manufacturing Costs (257,830) (57,086)
Profit 71,990 41,514
Imagine that you work in a call center. Your manager tells you that you need to answer 25% more calls per hour. In order to do this, you must spend less time with each caller, and your caller satisfaction scores are going down. By answering more phone calls but providing worse service, you ARE being __________ but NOT ___________.
Answer:
By answering more phone calls but providing worse service, you ARE being EFFICIENT but NOT SATISFY CUSTOMERS' NEEDS.
Explanation:
A worker's efficiency is measured by the total output per hour of labor. In this case, since you are answering more calls per hour, your efficiency is increasing (higher output per hour).
The quality of the service provided by a worker's is measured by the quality of their output (or performance), and if you satisfy your customers' needs. Since the service that you are providing is not that good, then your quality levels are decreasing.
You may be producing more services, but the services produced lack good quality.
Gretchen has just started as a fashion marketing intern for an up-and-coming design firm. When she came in, she was asked to work on a project identifying important events where celebrities might wear the fashions. She soon realized that this activity was part of _____________, directly related to marketing.
Answer:
A push-pull strategy
Explanation:
The Push strategy is an aspect of marketing where the marketer aims at taking his products directly to a target audience. This is done so as to stimulate the interest of the consumer in that particular product. Developing brands tend to employ this strategy to showcase themselves to the consumer in hopes of getting them attracted to their products. This is the strategy which the up-and-coming design firm is trying to employ when they seek to identify important events where celebrities might wear the fashions. They engage in this activity because they want to showcase their designs to the target audience- the celebrities.
Pull strategy is the opposite of this strategy as customers are now aware of the reputation of the brand and then seek them out on their own.
On July 8, Jones Inc. issued an $62,900, 9%, 120-day note payable to Miller Company. Assume that the fiscal year of Jones ends on July 31. Using the 360-day year, what is the amount of interest expense recognized by Jones in the current fiscal year
Answer:
The amount of interest expense recognized by Jones in the current fiscal year is $361.675
Explanation:
According to the given data Jones Inc. issued an $62,900, 9%, 120-day note payable to Miller Company On July 8, therefore if the the fiscal year of Jones ends on July 31 there 23 days between July 8 and July 31.
So, to calculate the amount of interest expense recognized by Jones in the current fiscal year we would have to make the following calculation:
Interest expense=$62,900*9%*(23/360)
Interest expense=$361.675
The amount of interest expense recognized by Jones in the current fiscal year is $361.675

B) The most significant changes are that total revenues actually decreased, but net income from operating activities actually creased both in $ amounts and as % of total revenue. Direct expenses remained at similar levels during both years, even 202x₋₁ direct expenses were lower. But the most significant cost reduction was made on general and administrative expenses which were lowered by almost 10% (compared to total revenues). Only NASCAR broadcasting related revenues increased, while all the other revenues decreased in % and absolute amounts.
Portman Industries just paid a dividend of $1.68 per share. The company expects the coming year to be very profitable, and its dividend is expected to grow by 20.00% over the next year. After the next year, though, Portman's dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 4.00% per year The risk-free rate (Rr) is 5.00%, the market risk premium (RPM) is 6.00%, and Portman's beta is 0.90 Term Value Dividends one year from now (Di Horizon value (P1) Intrinsic value of Portman's stock Assuming that the market is in equilibrium, use the information just given to complete the table What is the expected dividend yield for Portman's stock today? a. 6.15% b. 5.12% c. 6.79% d. 6.40% Now let's apply the results of your calculations to the following situation: Portman has 500,000 shares outstanding, and Judy Davis, an investor, holds 7,500 shares at the current price (computed above).

Answer:
What is the expected dividend yield for Portman's stock today?
d. 6.40%
Suppose Portman is considering issuing 62,500 new shares at a price of $26.78 per share. If the new shares are sold to outside investors, by how much will Judy's investment in Portman Industries be diluted on a per-share basis?
a. $0.52 per share
Thus, Judy's investment will be diluted, and Judy will experience a total loss of $0.52 x 7,500 = $3,900
Explanation:
cost of equity = Re = risk free rate of return + (Beta × market premium) = 5% + (0.90 x 6%) = 10.4%
dividend in one year = $1.68 x 120% = $2.016
intrinsic stock price = $2.016 / (10.4% - 4%) = $31.50
expected dividend yield = dividend / stock price = $2.016 / $31.50 = 6.4%
Judy's loss per share = ($31.50 - $26.78) x (62,500 / 562,500) = $0.5244

A local radio commercial costs $600 and reaches an estimated 10,250 listeners. A local cable commercial costs $1000 and reaches an estimated 18,500 viewers. Which medium provides the lowest CPM?
a. The radio commercial
b. The cable commercial
c. The radio and cable commercials have the same CPM
d. The CPM cannot be calculated given the limited information provided
e. None of the above
Answer:
b. The cable commercial
Explanation:
CPM or cost per mille is a measure used in advertising to determine how effectively a promotional message is getting to its audience. It is the cost of getting an advert in front of 1,000 people.
In this scenario when we calculate CPM for the radio station
$600 = 10,250 listeners
x= 1,000 listeners
Cross multiply
x= (600 * 1,000) ÷ 10,250 = $58.54
For the local cable commercial
$1000 = 18,500 viewers
y = 1,000 viewers
Cross multiply
y= (1,000 * 1,000) ÷ 18,500= $54.05
Audio Zone Co. needs to prepare pro forma financial statements for the next fiscal year. To do so, the company must forecast its total overhead cost. The actual machine hours and total overhead cost are presented below for the past six months.
Month Total Overhead Machine Hours
Jan. $6,288 1,980
Feb. 6,460 2,090
Mar. 5,987 1,745
Apr. 5,559 1,560
May 6,032 1,865
June 6,341 2,012
Using the high-low method, total monthly fixed overhead cost is calculated to be:________.
Answer:
$2,907
Explanation:
the formulas to calculate costs using the high-low method are:
variable cost = (highest activity cost - lowest activity cost) / (highest activity units - lowest activity units) fixed costs = highest activity cost - (variable cost per unit x highest activity units)variable cost = ($6,460 - $5,559) / (2,090 - 1,560) = $901 / 530 units = $1.70 per unit
fixed costs = $6,460 - ($1.70 x 2,090) = $6,460 - $3,553 = $2,907
Insect control devices must and be able to retain the electrocuted insects inside the device
Answer:
Be rated for safety by the USDA
Explanation:
Presence of insect pest around areas of food production poses a lot of risk such as contamination of food which might impact negatively on public health. However, in an attempt to control these insect pests, the problem of food contamination as a result of insect infestation that we're trying to solve might still be increased if safety measures are not strictly adhered to when manufacturing and using insect control devices.
Hence, it is necessary and of utmost importance that insect control devices must be rated for safety by USDA to ensure compliance with laid down measures and protocols for safe control of insect without contamination of food.
The operations manager of a mail order house purchases double (D) and twin (T) beds for resale. Each double bed costs $500 and requires 100 cubic feet of storage space. Each twin bed costs $300 and requires 90 cubic feet of storage space. The manager has $75,000 to invest in beds this week, and her warehouse has 18,000 cubic feet available for storage. Profit for each double bed is $300 and for each twin bed is $150. The manager's goal is to maximize profits.
Required:
What is not a feasible solution?
Answer:
Please see below for answer
Explanation:
It would not be feasible to invest the entire $75,000 amount on making double beds. Although the profit margin for the double beds is twice that of twin beds, it also requires more storage space and the market demand for double beds may not be as high as the twin beds. Hence, making double beds and ignoring twin beds completely might not make as much profit due to not being sold to begin with.
(5). The variance of Stock A is .005, the variance of the market is .008 and the covariance between the two is .0026. What is the correlation coefficient
Answer:
0.4110
Explanation:
The formula and computation of the correlation coefficient is shown below:
Correlation co-efficient = Covariance ÷ (Standard deviation of market × Standard deviation of Stock A)
where,
Covariance between the two = 0.0026
Variance of the stock A = 0.005
And, the variance of the market is 0.008
Now placing these values to the above formula
So, the correlation coefficient is
= 0.0026 ÷ (0.008 × 0.005)^0.50
= 0.0026 ÷ 0.006324555
= 0.411096096
= 0.4110
Hence, the correlation coefficient is 0.4110
Le Son, Inc., has current liabilities of $11,700 an accounts receivable of $15,200. The firm has total assets of $43,400 and net fixed assets of $24,800. The owners' equity has a book value of $21,000. What is the amount of the net working capital
Answer:
Explanation:
These terms are culled from Balance sheet and Balance sheet have two sides, The Debit and Credit side. The debit side contain the Capital, Current Liabilities among others and The Credit side contain The Fixed asset and the Current asset
The amount of Net working capital is derived from Current asset - Current Liability
Net working capital = Current asset - Current Liability
Where Current asset = Total asset - Net Fixed asset= 43,400-24,800 = 18,600
Where Current Liability = 11,700
Therefore, Net working capital = $18,600 - $11,700 = $6,900
The amount of the net working capital = $6,900
The common stock of Buildwell Conservation & Construction Inc. (BCCI) has a beta of .9. The Treasury bill rate is 4%, and the market risk premium is estimated at 8%. BCCI’s capital structure is 30% debt, paying an interest rate of 5%, and 70% equity. The debt sells at par. Buildwell pays tax at 40%.
a. What is BCCI’s cost of equity capital? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 1 decimal place.)
Cost of equity capital %
b. What is its WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
WACC %
Answer:
Cost of equity is 11.2%
WACC is 8.74%
Explanation:
The formula for cost of equity is given below:
Cost of equity=risk free rate+(Beta *risk premium)
risk free rate is the treasury bill rate of 4%
Beta is 0.9
market risk premium is 8%
cost of equity=4%+(0.9*8%)=11.2%
WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)
Ke is the cost of equity of 11.2%
Kd is the cost of debt of 5%
t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4
E is the equity weighting of 70% or 0.7
D is the debt weighting of 30% or 0.3
V is the E+D=0.7+0.3=1
WACC=11.20% *0.7/1+(5%*0.3/1*(1-0.4)
WACC=7.84% +0.90% =8.74%
