A. Highly complex analytical tools
B. Analysis using numerical tools
C. Obvious objective judgments
D. Readily qualified judgments

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: analysis using numerical tools

Explanation:

The main reason for the creation of Antitrust laws was to give power to the government to block some particular mergers and also break up the large firms to smaller ones.

Dvorak Company produces a product that requires 5 standard pounds per unit. The standard price is $2.50 per pound. If 1,000 units required 4,500 pounds, which were purchased at $3.00 per pound, what is the direct materials (a) price variance, (b) quantity variance, and (c) total direct materials cost variance

Answers

Answer:

Direct material price variance= $2,250 unfavorable

Direct material quantity variance= $1,250 favorable

Total variance= $1,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (2.5 - 3)*4,500

Direct material price variance= $2,250 unfavorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Standard quantity= 5*1,000= 5,000

Direct material quantity variance= (5,000 - 4,500)*2.5

Direct material quantity variance= $1,250 favorable

Total variance= 1,250 - 2,250= $1,000 unfavorable

Barb bought a house with 20% down and the rest financed by a 30-year mortgage with monthly payments calculated at a nominal annual rate of interest 8.4% compounded monthly. She notices that one-third of the way through the mortgage she will still owe 200,000. Determine the purchase price of the house.

Answers

Answer:

$282,706

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the purchase price of the house

First step

In order for us to determine the purchase price of the house we would be using TVM Calculation to find the PMT

Hence,

PMT =

PV = 200,000

FV = 0

N = 240

I = 0.084/12

Thus,PMT = $1,723.01

The Second step will be to Calculate the Loan Amount Using TVM Calculation,

PV =

FV = 0

PMT = -1,723.01

N = 360

I = 0.084/12

Thus, PV = $226,164.98

Last step is to Determine the purchase price of the house

Using this formula

Purchase price=PV/(100%-20% down)

Let plug in the formula

Purchase price =226,164.98/(0.80)

Purchase price = $282,706

Therefore the purchase price of the house will be $282,706

Answers

Answer:

$14,100

Explanation:

To find the answer, we use the following formula:

Income from operations = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold - Direct Operating Expenses - General Overhead

Income from operations = $67,600 - 30,500 - 23,000

                                        = $14,100

Would activity-based costing or activity-based management be useful for the airport store? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer with Explanation:

Activity based costing will not be useful because the airport store has hundreds of items which share a indirect costs like rentals, warehouse expenses, delivery costs, electricity, maintenance costs, etc.

The reason why its use in the case of airport store is not beneficial is as under:

Time Consuming: All indirect costs can't be absorbed in hundreds of product and would take more than one month to allocate indirect costs to each product. List of Restricted Product Price: Another reason is that the airport stores are given a price schedule which restrict selling of products at higher costs. This means if the contribution arising from the product then we can't change its price as it is restricted by the airport authorities.The indirect cost remains fixed and is not changing in this case which means it is not determinable which product consumes greater share of indirect cost as sometimes shelves will be not 100% occupied hence determining cost drivers for each cost pool would be a difficult task.Purpose is Lost: The purpose of ABC is to allocate the indirect costs to each product which apportioned on a fairer basis and lower the indirect cost by lowering the usage of cost drivers. The indirect costs can't be lowered as maintenance cost is fixed, electricity consumption remains the same, rentals are also fixed, this means that the purpose of allocation and controlling of cost drivers is lost.Suitable for Manufacturers not for Stores: The manufacturer's products deal with dozens of costs that are variable if the cost driver changes. The cost driver changes are not changing the indirect cost in the case of airport store which means that if a product which occupied 1 shelve is now occupying 2 shelves is not increasing the rental cost.

Hence ABC is not suitable for airport store.

A bond issue with a face amount of $1,200,000 bears interest at the rate of 9%. The current market rate of interest is 10%. These bonds will sell at a price that is:

Answers

Answer: The selling price of the bond will be less than $1,200,000

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a bond issue with a face amount of $1,200,000 bears interest at the rate of 9% and that the current market rate of interest is 10%.

Since the market rate is 10% which is higher than coupon rate of 9%, this means that the market price for the bond will be smaller than the bond's face value.

Therefore, the selling price of the bond will be less than $1,200,000.

Answers

Answer:

None of the options are correct.

Explanation:

We start by calculating the net change of the treasury bond position.

= $95,125 - $95,000

= $125

The long treasury bond position gains $125 after a month.

We will also calculate the net change of the treasury bond futures contract.

= $94,125 - $95,187.50

= -$1,062.50

Therefore, Net profits is;

= $125 - $1,062.50

On July 9, Mifflin Company receives an $8,500, 90-day, 8% note from customer Payton Summers as payment on account. Compute the amount due at maturity for the note and interest. (Use 360 days a year.)

Answers

Answer:

$8,670 and $170

Explanation:

The computation of the amount due at the time of maturity and the interest is shown below:

For interest, it is

= Received amount × rate of interest × number of months ÷ total number of months in a year

= $8,500 × 8% × 90 ÷ 360 days

= $170

And, the amount due at the time of maturity of the note is

= Received amount + interest

= $8,500 + $170

= $8,670

Consider two bonds, a 3-year bond paying an annual coupon of 5%, and a 20-year bond, also with an annual coupon of 5%. Both bonds currently sell at par value. Now suppose that interest rates rise and the yield to maturity of the two bonds increases to 8%. a. What is the new price of the 3-year bond?

Answers

Answer:

$922.69  

Explanation:

The price of the 3-year bond can be computed using the below bond price formula:

Price=face value/(1+r)^n+coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n)/r

face value is $1000

r is the new interest rate of 8%

n is the number of annual coupons the bond would pay which is 3

coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*5%=$50

price=1000/(1+8%)^3+50*(1-(1+8%)^-3)/8%

price of 3-year bond=$922.69

A. constant returns to scale
B. decreasing returns to scale.
C. increasing returns to scale.
D. none of the above.

Answers

Answer:

Requirement 1: Production Output will be 61.42 Units.

Requirement 2: Production Output will be doubled.

Requirement 3: Constant Returns to Scale

Explanation:

Requirement 1:

The output at K=46 and N=82 is given as under:

Y = (46)^1/2  *  (82)^1/2

Y = 61.42 Units

Requirement 2:

Now if we double "K" and "N" then:

Y' = (2K)^1/2  *  (2N)^1/2

Y' = 2 [(K)^1/2  *  (N)^1/2]

Y' = 2Y

This means that the output will be doubled.

Requirement 3:

Option A. Constant Returns to Scale

Constant returns to scale occurs when the increase in the input causes same proportional increase in the production output. Such same proportional increase in the production output is referred to as Constant Returns to Scale.

In the given scenario, as the production output doubles with the doubling of input which was seen in the requirement above. We can say that the production function is characterized by Constant Returns to Scale.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales in Units

April 54,000

May 75,000

June 94,000

July 82,000

Desired ending inventory= 20% of the following month’s sales.

The inventory at the end of March was 10,800 units.

To calculate the production for each month, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

April:

Sales= 54,000

Ending inventory= 75,000*0.2= 15,000

Beginning inventory= (10,800)

Total= 58,200 units

May:

Sales= 75,000

Ending inventory= 94,000*0.2= 18,800

Beginning inventory= (15,000)

Total= 78,800 units

June:

Sales= 94,000

Ending inventory= 82,000*0.2= 16,400

Beginning inventory= (18,800)

Total= 91,600 units

Total for the quarter= 228,600 units

In the above case, Sales in Units in the month of April is 54,000, in the month of May is 75,000, in the month of June is 94,000 and in the month of July is 82,000.

What is sales?

A sale is defined as a transaction between the parties in which the purchaser acquires goods, services, or assets in return for money. In some cases, other assets are pay off to a seller.

Computation of production:

According to the available information,

Desirable closing inventory= 20% of the following month’s sales.

The inventory at the end of March was 10,800 units.

To calculate the production in each month, the formula is:

[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}[/tex]

Production in the month of April:

According to the given information,

Sales= 54,000

Ending inventory:

[tex]=75,000\times \dfrac{20}{100}\\= 15,000[/tex]

Beginning inventory= 10,800

Now, apply the given values in the above formula:

[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =54,000+15,000-10,800\\\\\text{Production}=58,200\text{Units}[/tex]

Production in the month of May:

Sales= 75,000

Ending inventory:

[tex]=94,000\times \frac{20}{100}\\\\= 18,800[/tex]

Beginning inventory= 15,000

Now, apply the given values in the above formula:

[tex]\text{Production= Sales + Desired Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory}\\\\\text{Production} =75,000+18,800-15,000\\\\\text{Production}=78,800\text{Units}[/tex]

Production in the month of June:

Sales= 94,000

Ending inventory:

[tex]872,000\times\dfrac{20}{100}= 16,400[/tex]

Beginning inventory= 18,800

Now, apply the given values in the above formula:
