Answer:
$13,500
$42,000
Explanation:
Fixed cost of asset = 150000
Salvage value = 15000
Period = 10 years
Annual Depreciation = (fixed cost of asset - Salvage a value) / period
Annual Depreciation = (150000 - 15000) / 10
Annual Depreciation = 135000 / 10
Annual Depreciation = $13500
The 4th year depreciation is also $13,500 as the annual Depreciation charge is equal for each year.
The book value at the end of the 8th year :
Depreciation for 8 years = (13500 * 8) = $108,000
Book value at the end of 8 years = Cost of asset - $108,000
= $150,000 - $108,000
= $42,000

On May 11, 2012, your calendar year firm pays $6,000 for a used computer server, its only asset purchase for the year, and estimates that the server will have a salvage value of $500. If no Section 179 deduction is taken, what is your firm’s maximum 2012 deduction for depreciation?
Answer:
Calendar-Year Firm
The firm’s maximum 2012 deduction for depreciation is:
= $917.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchase of a used computer server on May 11, 2012 = $6,000
Since the server is a used one, we assume a four-year useful life
Salvage value = $500
Assumed useful life = 4 years
Depreciable amount = $5,500 ($6,000 - $500)
Since the firm does not take the Section 179 Deduction, which would have allowed it to expense the whole depreciable amount this 2012, the depreciation expense for the first year is calculated as follows:
Annual depreciation expense, using the straight-line method = $1,375
For 2012, the firm's maximum deduction for depreciation will be:
= $917 ($1,375 * 8/12) (covering the months from May 11 to December 31)
Suppose the demand function (D) for golf clubs is: QP, where P is the price paid by consumers in dollars per club and Q is the quantity demanded in thousands. Suppose the supply curve (S) for golf clubs is estimated to be: QP. Calculate the equilibrium price for golf clubs and the equilibrium quantity sold. The equilibrium price is $ 75 per club (Enter your response as an integer.), and the equilibrium quantity is 75 thousand clubs (Enter your response as an integer.) Suppose instead that golf club producers agree to charge a price of $ per club. This would result in a surplus of nothing thousand clubs (Enter your response as an integer.)
Answer:
(a)
The equilibrium price is $75 per club
The equilibrium quantity is 75000 clubs
(b)
A charge a price of $50 per club. This would result in a surplus of 25000 clubs
Explanation:
Given
[tex]Q = 150 - 1.00P[/tex] --- The demand function
[tex]Q = 1.00P[/tex] --- The supply function
Solving (a): The equilibrium price and quantity
To do this, we equate both functions
This gives:
[tex]1.00P = 150 - 1.00P[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]1.00P+1.00P = 150[/tex]
[tex]2.00P = 150[/tex]
Make P the subject
[tex]P =\frac{150}{2.00}[/tex]
[tex]P = \$75[/tex] ---The equilibrium price
Substitute 75 for P in [tex]Q = 1.00P[/tex]
[tex]Q = 1.00 * 75[/tex]
[tex]Q = 75[/tex] ---- The equilibrium quantity
Solving (c): When the price is changed to $50
This means that: [tex]P =50[/tex]
The quantity demanded will be:
[tex]Q = 150 - 1.00P[/tex]
[tex]Q = 150 - 1.00 * 50[/tex]
[tex]Q = 150 - 50[/tex]
[tex]Q = 100[/tex]
Subtract the equilibrium quantity from [tex]Q = 100[/tex] to get the shortage/surplus
[tex]\triangle Q = 100 - 75[/tex]
[tex]\triangle Q = 25[/tex]
Since the change is positive, then there is a surplus.

Camille Noah is investing $5,000 in an account that pays an annually compounded rate of 6.75 percent for three years. What is the interest on interest if interest is compounded
Answer:
$69.88
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the interest on interest if interest is compounded
First step is to calculate Simple interest per year
Deposit today represent PV = $5,000
Interest rate represent i = 6.75%
No. of years represent n = 3
Simple interest per year = $5,000 × (0.0675)
Simple interest per year= $337.50
Second step is to calculate the Simple interest for 3 years
Simple interest for 3 years = $337.50 × 3
Simple interest for 3 years= $1,012.50
Fourth step is to calculate the Future value with compound interest (FV3)
FV3 = $5,000 (1 + 0.0675)^3
FV3=$5,000+(1.0675)^3
FV3= $6,082.38
Now let determine the Interest on interest
Interest on interest = $6,082.38 - $5,000 - $1,012.50
Interest on interest = $69.88
Therefore the interest on interest if interest is compounded is $69.88
Use this information for Carmen Co. to answer the question that follow. Carmen Co. can further process Product J to produce Product D. Product J is currently selling for $23.80 per pound and costs $15.55 per pound to produce. Product D would sell for $35.65 per pound and would require an additional cost of $11.65 per pound to produce. What is the differential cost of producing Product D
Answer:
the differential cost is $11.65 per pound
Explanation:
The computation of the differential cost of producing product D is shown below:
Here the differential cost of generating product B should be considered as the additional cost needed to produced i.e. $11.65 per pound
Therefore the differential cost is $11.65 per pound
So, the same should be relevant

Loss on sale of stock purchased in March year 14, sold on October 10, year 14, and repurchased on November 2, year 14Loss on the sale of their personal automobileWhich of the following statements about striving to reduce labor costs per pair produced at each of the company's plants is true?
a. A company cannot achieve labor costs per pair produced that are close to the lowest in the industry (in those geographic regions where it has plants) unless its annual total compensation of plant workers is below the average annual total compensation paid by all companies with plants in these same regions.
b. All companies, regardless of the strategy being employed, should pursue actions to manage employee compensation and labor productivity in a manner that results in labor costs per pair produced that are equal to (or very close to) the industry-low in each region where the company has plants.
c. It is very difficult for a company producing branded footwear with a high S/Q rating to achieve labor costs per pair produced that are below the industry average in each geographic region where the company has plants.
d. A company pursuing a low-cost provider strategy is better able to pursue actions aimed at achieving low labor costs per pair produced in each of its plants (as compared to the labor costs of companies with plants in the same regions) than is a company pursuing a differentiation strategy.
e. It is more cost effective for a company to compensate plant workers at levels that are close to the highest in the industry in each geographic region where it has plants than it is for a company to pursue actions to keep labor costs per pair produced below the industry average in each geographic region where it has plants.
Answer:
b. All companies, regardless of the strategy being employed, should pursue actions to manage employee compensation and labor productivity in a manner that results in labor costs per pair produced that are equal to (or very close to) the industry-low in each region where the company has plants.
Explanation:
The less labor cost of production per pair could be attained in following two ways
1. The productivity level is icnreased
2. The compensation should be managed and it provides the combination of both fixed and variable. Also it pays the high compensation but at the more productivity rate due to which the labor cost per pair would fall
So as per the given situation, the option b is correct
Mary makes 10 pies and 20 cakes a day and her opportunity cost of producing a cake is 2 pies. Tim makes 20 pies and 10 cakes a day and his opportunity cost of producing a cake is 4 pies. If Mary and Tim specialize in the good in which they have a comparative advantage, _________
A. Mary produces only cakes while Tim produces only pies
B. Mary produces only pies
C. Tim produces both pies and cakes
D. Tim produces only cakes while Mary produces only pies
Answer:
A. Mary produces only cakes while Tim produces only pies
Explanation:
I will start by describing the concept called comparative advantage. Comparative advantage can be described as a businesses ability to produce at a reduced or lower opportunity cost than others. Given this definition, we can see that Mary's opportunity cost of producing cakes is lower than Tims opportunity cost. So Mary has an advantage over Tim in the production of cakes. So the answer to this question is A. Mary should specialize in the making of cakes while Tim should specalize in pie making
All of the following are true of measuring the effectiveness of security policies, except: A. you can get a basic understanding if individuals are being held accountable for adherence to security policies by examining policy violations, incidents, and security awareness. B. measuring accountability is easier than measuring effectiveness. C. the best measurement of whether employees are following policies is the actual reduction in risk that occurs. D. to ensure accountability, you need to measure if employees are following the policies.
Answer:
All of the following are true of measuring the effectiveness of security policies, except:
B. measuring accountability is easier than measuring effectiveness.
Explanation:
Measuring the effectiveness of security policies requires using quantitative tools to demonstrate that the security policies are working as they should.

The operating income calculated using variable costing and absorption costing amounts to $9,100 and $11,200. There were no beginning inventories. Determine the total fixed manufacturing overhead that will be expensed under absorption costing for the year.
Answer:
$2,100
Explanation:
The difference between variable costing income and absorption costing income arises due to fixed cost deferred in inventory. This is the total fixed manufacturing overhead that will be expensed under absorption costing.
Calculation :
Fixed Cost in Inventory = $11,200 - $9,100
= $2,100
At the profit-maximizing level of output, the amount by which the firm can mark up price is: Group of answer choices directly related to the price elasticity of demand for item in question. totally unrelated to the price elasticity of demand for item in question. equal to the ratio of the marginal and average costs of production. inversely related to the price elasticity of demand for item in question.
Answer:
inversely related to the price elasticity of demand for item in question.
Explanation:
Price can be defined as the amount of money that is required to be paid by a buyer (customer) to a seller (producer) in order to acquire goods and services. Thus, it refers to the amount of money a customer or consumer buying goods and services are willing to pay for the goods and services being offered. Also, the price of goods and services are primarily being set by the seller or service provider.
Generally, all businesses and entrepreneurship go into the business of buying and selling or providing services to service takers (consumers) for the sole purpose of making profit and maximizing the profits over time.
At the profit-maximizing level of output, the amount by which a business firm can mark up price is inversely related or proportional to the price elasticity of demand for the item (product) in question. Thus, the amount by which a business firm can mark up price increases as the price elasticity of demand for a item (product) decreases and vice-versa.
A price elasticity of demand can be defined as a measure of the responsiveness of the quantity of a product demanded with respect to a change in price of the product, all things being equal.
Also, a mark-up price is simply the difference between the cost price of a good (product) or service and its selling price.
Which of the following statements is false? Question 21 options: Not all economists are agreed as to whether government should bail out companies in financial trouble. Not all economists prefer a rule-based monetary policy to discretionary monetary policy. Rule-based monetary policy advocates often assert that discretionary monetary policy can be motivated by politics. The tax multiplier is always larger than the government spending mult
Answer:
The tax multiplier is always larger than the government spending multiplier
Explanation:
As we know that
Tax multiplier = mpc ÷ (1 - mpc)
Here mpc means marginal propensity to consume
And,
Government spending multiplier= 1 ÷ (1 - mpc)
So based on this the government spending multiplier should always be more than the tax multiplier
Therefore the last option should be considered
A friend has $1,400 that he has saved from his part-time job. He will need his money, plus any interest earned on it, in six months and has asked for your help in deciding whether to put the money in a bank savings account at 5.90% interest or to lend it to Victor. Victor has promised to repay $1,470 after six months.
Required:
a. Calculate the interest earned on the savings account for six months.
b. Calculate the rate of return if the money is lent to Simone. Round your percentage answer to two decimal places.
c. Which alternative would you recommend? Explain your answer.
Answer:
a. The interest earned on the savings account for six months is:
= $41.30
b. The rate of return if the money is lent to Victor is:
= 10%
c. Based on the calculations alone, lending the $1,400 to Victor is better than saving in the bank, provided that there is no risk of default on the part of Victor.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Savings from part-time job = $1,400
Interest rate in a bank savings account = 5.90%
Period of savings in the bank = 6 months
Future value of the $1,400 savings = $1,441.30
Victor repayment if $1,400 was instead lent to him = $1,470
From a financial calculator, the future value of $1,400 at 5.9% after six months is $1,441.30
Loan Amount 1400
Loan Term 0 years 6 months
Interest Rate 5.9
Compound Semi-annually
Pay Back 6 Months after
Results:
Payment Every 6 Months = $1,441.30
Total of 1 Payments = $1,441.30
Total Interest = $41.30
Interest paid by Victor = $70 ($1,470 - $1,400)
This translates to 5% for six months and 10% for 1 year
5% = ($70/$1,400 * 100)
Aurillo Equipment Company (AEC) projected that its ROE for next year would be just 6
percent. However, the financial staff has determined that the firm can increase its ROE by refinancing some high interest bonds currently outstanding. The firm’s total debt will remain at $200,000 and the debt ratio will hold constant at 80 percent, but the interest rate on the refinanced debt will be 10 percent. The rate on the old debt is 14 percent. Refinancing will not affect sales, which are projected to be $300,000. EBIT will be 11 percent of sales and the firm’s tax rate is 40 percent. If AEC refinances its high interest bonds, what will be its projected new ROE?
Answer:
Aurillo Equipment Company (AEC)
If AEC refinances its high interest bonds, its projected new ROE will be:
= 15.6%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Total debt = $200,000
Debt ratio = 80%
Total assets = $250,000 ($200,000/80%)
Equity = $50,000 ($250,000 - $200,000)
Old interest rate on old debt = 14%
New interest rate on refinanced debt = 10%
Total interest = $20,000 ($200,000 * 10%)
Sales revenue = $300,000
EBIT = $33,000
Interest 20,000
Before tax $13,000
Tax = 5,200 (40% of $13,000)
Net income $7,800
ROE = Net income/Equity * 100
= ($7,800/$50,000 * 100)
= 15.6%
If the Fed sells Treasury bills (bonds/securities) this will shift the Group of answer choices money demand curve to the right. money supply curve to the right money demand curve to the left. money supply curve to the left.
Answer: money supply curve to the left.
Explanation:
The sale of Treasury Bills by the Fed is part of its contractionary monetary policy and is used to reduce the amount of money in the economy. By selling the bills, people pay money to the Fed which then takes the money out of circulation thereby reducing the amount of money in the economy.
The effect of this would be a leftward shift in the money supply curve to indicate that there is now less money in the economy. The Fed does this when it feels that the economy is overheated and so economic growth needs to be reduced to a more sustainable level.
An individual has $30,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 0.7 and another $70,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 1.2. If these are the only two investments in her portfolio, what is her portfolio's beta? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
1.05
Explanation:
Beta measures systematic risk. Systemic risk are risk that are inherent in the economy. They cannot be diversified away.
The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors
The portfolio's beta can be determined by adding together the weighted beta of each stock in the portfolio
weighted beta of a stock = percentage of the stock in the portfolio x beta of the stock
total value of the portfolio = $30,000 + $70,000 = $100,000
percentage of stock A in the portfolio = $30,000 / $100,000 = 0.30
percentage of stock B in the portfolio = $70,000 / $100,000 = 0.70
weighted beta of stock A = 0.30 x 0.7 = 0.21
weighted beta of stock B = 0.70 x 1.2 = 0.84
Portfolio beta = 0.21 + 0.84 = 1.05
The manager of Quick Car Inspection reviewed the monthly operating costs for the past year. The costs ranged from $4,400 for 1,400 inspections to $4,200 for 1,000 inspections. Please use the high-low method to calculate the variable cost per inspection.
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $0.5 per inspection
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The costs ranged from $4,400 for 1,400 inspections to $4,200 for 1,000 inspections.
To calculate the variable cost under the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (4,400 - 4,200) / (1,400 - 1,000)
Variable cost per unit= $0.5 per inspection
There are several attempts to explain Marvels Success via competetive strategy but they fall flat: competitve strategy, with this specific case neither predicts nor explains the outcome why?
Answer:
It has been a well known fact that competitive strategy creates a unique value for a target set of movie customers. However, it is not able to predict nor explain the outcome due to the fact that Marvel only focused on trying to compete to be the best in comic and superhero films which thus resulted in basically a case whereby there was a competition in which one participant wins totally and another loses without gaining any objectives and thus they were not able to win.
Explanation:
This question is taken from a book titled "The Marvel Way: Restoring a Blue Ocean". It was written by W. Chan Kim, Renee Mauborgne, Michael Olenick. The central theme of the book was about one of the greatest turnarounds in modern business history by the then Marvel CEO with the name Peter Cuneo who was responsible for turning the business around and succeeded in launching a blue ocean.
From the question, neither predicts nor explains the outcome because;
It has been a well known fact that competitive strategy creates a unique value for a target set of movie customers.

Suppose that the demand in period 1 was 7 units and the demand in period 2 was 9 units. Assume that the forecast for period 1 was for 5 units. If the firm uses exponential smoothing with an alpha value of .20, what should be the forecast for period 3
Answer:
6.12units
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what should be the forecast for period 3
First step is to calculate the Forecast for period 2 using this formula
Forecast for period 2 = Alpha * Actual demand for period 1 + (1-alpha) * Forecast for period 1
Let plug in the
Forecast for period 2= 0.2 * 7+ (1-0.2)* 5
Forecast for period 2= 5.4 units
Now let determine the Forecast for period 3
Using this formula
Forecast for period 3 = Alpha* Actual demand for period 2 + (1- alpha) * Forecast for period 2
Let plug in the formula
Forecast for period 3= 0.2 * 9 + (1-0.2)* 5.4
Forecast for period 3=6.12units
Therefore what should be the forecast for period 3 is 6.12 units

difference between white collar job and blue collar job?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation:
White and blue collar jobs are usually differentiated in terms of the job setting or environment in which each group of job is undertaken. The white collar jobs are job categories whereby staffs often work in offices such that most of the duties performed are on computers or writing. This may include ; banking, clerical and administrative jobs and other related job fields.
Blue collar jobs in the other hand could be described as being less formal as it Involves most of the business or trade related job types whereby individuals could be seen undergoing laborious jobs. This jobs may be skilled or unskilled and the job types include cost uctjoj workers, artisans, mechanics, electctricians and so on.
Blue collar jobs cannot keep the sort of tidy outlook white collar job do keep due to the nature of their work. Hence, this palys a role in the name given as blue clothes are often more accommodation of dirt or stain than white garments.
The net asset value of shares in a closed-end investment company is $36. An investor buys the shares for $34 in the secondary market. The company distributes $1 and after one year, the net asset rises to $42. The investor sells the shares for $43 in the secondary market. What is the percentage return on the investment
Answer:
Closed-End Investment Company
The percentage return on the investment is:
= = 29.41%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Net asset value of share = $36
Price paid by an investor = $34
Dividend distributed = $1
Net asset value after one year = $42
Selling price in the secondary market by the investor = $43
Total amount realized by the investor = $44 ($43 + $1)
Cost of investment = $34
Dollar return on the investment = $10 ($44 - $34)

In a continuous review inventory system, the lead time for door knobs is weeks. The standard deviation of demand during the lead time is units. The desired cycle-service level is percent. The supplier of door knobs streamlined its operations and now quotes a 1 week lead time. Refer to the standard normal tableLOADING... for z-values. How much can the safety stock be reduced without reducing the percent cycle-service level? The safety stock can be reduced by nothing door knobs. (Enter your response rounded to the nearest whole number.)
Answer:
The answer is "116 doorknobs".
Explanation:
The standard deviation of the demand before the (four weeks) protection intervals = [tex]\sigma-d \times (\sqrt{L}) = 100 \ units\\[/tex]
The desired cycle service level is [tex]99\%[/tex].Therefore, [tex]z = 2.33[/tex]
The safety stocks for the four-weeks protecting interval are:
Safety stock [tex]= z\times [ \sigma-d \times (\sqrt{L})][/tex]
[tex]= 2.33 \times 100 \\\\= 233\ door\ knobs[/tex]
The safety stocks require for the one-week protection interval are: [tex]\sigma-dLT = \sigma-dt \times (\sqrt{L}) = \sigma-dt \times (\sqrt{4}) = 100\ door\ knobs\\\\\sigma-d = \frac{100}{(\sqrt{4})} = \frac{100}{2} = 50 \ door\ knobs\\\\[/tex]
Safety stock [tex]= z\times \sigma-dt = 2.33 \times 50 = 116.5 \ or\ 117 \ door\ knobs\\\\[/tex]
Safety stock reduction[tex]= 233 -117 = 116 \ door\ knobs[/tex]
