Assume for the United States that the opportunity cost of each airplane is 50 cars. Which of these pairs of points could be on the United States' production possibilities frontier?a. (200 airplanes, 5,000 cars) and (150 airplanes, 4,000 cars)b. (200 airplanes, 12,500 cars) and (150 airplanes, 15,000 cars)c. (300 airplanes, 15,000 cars) and (200 airplanes, 25,000 cars)d. (300 airplanes, 25,000 cars) and (200 airplanes, 40,000 cars)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: b. (200 airplanes, 12,500 cars) and (150 airplanes, 15,000 cars)

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of an airplane is 50 cars. This means that if the number of planes produced were reduced by 50, the number of cars should increase by:

= 50 * 50

= 2,500 cars.

In option B, the airplanes were 200 and then reduced by 50 to 150. This led to an increase in cars of:

= 15,000 - 12,500

= 2,500 cars

Option B therefore satisfies the constraints and is correct.

actor Co. can produce a unit of product for the following costs: Direct material $ 8.60 Direct labor 24.60 Overhead 43.00 Total product cost per unit $ 76.20 An outside supplier offers to provide Factor with all the units it needs at $48.40 per unit. If Factor buys from the supplier, the company will still incur 60% of its overhead. Factor should choose to:

Answers

Answer:

Relevant cost to make = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable overhead

Relevant cost to make = $8.60 + $24.60 + $43.00 (1-60%)

Relevant cost to make = $8.60 + $24.60 + $17.20

Relevant cost to make = $50.40

Outside supplier cost ($48.40) < Relevant cost to make ($50.40). So, Factor should choose to buy because the relevent cost is less than outside supplier cost.

Answers

Answer:

the business is making a profit of R14700

Explanation:

A business earns a profit if total cost is less than revenue and a business earns a loss of total cost exceeds revenue

total cost = R36 200 + ,R12400 + ,R3 800 + R18 900 = 71,300

total revenue =  R86000

revenue exceeds cost, so a profit is being made

You own a portfolio equally invested in a risk-free asset and two stocks. If one of the stocks has a beta of 1.27 and the total portfolio is equally as risky as the market, what must the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio

Answers

Answer:

the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is 1.73

Explanation:

The computation of the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is shown below:

Given that

risk free asset contains the beta of 0

And,  

market beta = 1

Now  

1 = 1 ÷ 3 × 0 + 1 ÷ 3 × 1.27 + 1 ÷ 3 × beta

The beta of other stock = 1.73

hence, the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is 1.73

Quick ratio = (Current assets - Inventory - Prepaid expenses) / Current liabilities

Quick ratio = (Account Receivable + Cash + Marketable securities) / (Account Payable + Accrued liabilities + Notes payable)

Quick ratio = (66,433 + 22,494 + 34,976) / (33,411 + 6,512 + 29,393)

Question Completion:

Describe the accounting treatment of Supplies Expenses.

Answer:

Supplies Expenses are debited while the Supplies account is credited with the supplies expenses.

Explanation:

This accounting treatment of Supplies Expenses reduces the balance of the Supplies account by the amount of supplies used during the period.  Thus, what is left in the Supplies account is the cost of the unused supplies at the end of the accounting period.  The treatment also accords with the accrual concept, which requires that expenses are matched to the revenues that they generate in the period.

$1265.63

Explanation:

Inflation is a persistent rise in the general price levels

Types of inflation

1. demand pull inflation – this occurs when demand exceeds supply. When demand exceeds supply, prices rise

2. cost push inflation – this occurs when the cost of production increases. This leads to a reduction in supply. Higher prices are the resultant effect

A business manager finds that the building expense each month is completely uncorrelated with revenue levels. What should the business manager assume about this cost?

Answers

Answer:

The business manager should assume that the building expense is fixed.

Explanation:

Fixed costs are not correlated with the revenue levels.  Within the relevant range, fixed costs remain constant.  They do not vary with the activity levels as variable costs do.  For example, a manufacturer must pay for rent, repairs and maintenance, and utility bills irrespective of the revenue levels at which it is operating.  This is why the business manager always discovers that the building expense each month does not correlate with the revenue levels, unlike the product's variable costs.

On January 1, Year 1, Renquist Corp. borrowed $100,000 by signing a 5-year note payable with annual interest of 8%. The terms of the contract require Renquist to repay the principal over 5 years with a payment of $20,000 made at the end of each year. On December 31, Year Renquist made the first payment plus interest On January 1 Year 2. what portion of the note should be classified as noncurrent liabilities?
a. $60,000
b. $20,000
c. $80,000
d. $100,000

Answers

Answer: $60,000

Explanation:

The portion of the note that should be classified as noncurrent liabilities will be calculated thus:

Note payable balance on January 1, year 1 = $100,000

Since the terms of the contract require Renquist to repay the principal over 5 years with a payment of $20,000 made at the end of each year, the note payable repaid on December 31, year 1 will be $20,000

Therefore, the note payable balance on Jan 1, year 2 will then be:

= $100,000 - 20,000

= $80,000

Therefore, from the $80,000 note payable, $20,000 will represent current liabilities. Hence, the non current liabilities will be:

= $80000 - $20000

= $60000

The difference between new classical theory and new Keynesian theory is that Question 2 options: in new classical theory wages are assumed to be flexible, and in new Keynesian theory wages are assumed to be somewhat inflexible.

Answers

Group of answer choices.

A. in new classical theory wages are assumed to be flexible, and in new Keynesian theory wages are assumed to be somewhat inflexible.

B. in new classical theory wages are assumed to be somewhat inflexible, and in new Keynesian theory wages are assumed to be flexible.

C. adaptive expectations is the dominant expectations theory in new classical theory, and rational expectations is the dominant expectations theory in new Keynesian theory.

D. in new Keynesian theory the short-run aggregate supply curve is vertical, and in new classical theory the short-run aggregate supply curve is upward sloping.

Answer:

A. in new classical theory wages are assumed to be flexible, and in new Keynesian theory wages are assumed to be somewhat inflexible.

Explanation:

The new classical theory (neoclassical view) posits that long-term expansion of potential Gross Domestic Products (GDP) due to economic growth will determine the size of a country's economy but the economy cannot sustain production above its potential Gross Domestic Products (GDP) in the long run.

John Maynard Keynes was a British economist born on the 5th of June, 1883 in Cambridge, England. He was famous for his brilliant ideas on government economic policy and macroeconomics which is known as the Keynesian theory. He later died on the 23rd of April, 1946 in Sussex, England.

According to the new Keynesian theory, government spending or expenditures should be increased and taxes should be lowered when faced with a recession, in order to create employment and boost the buying power of consumers.

Hence, the difference between the new classical theory (neoclassical view) and new Keynesian theory is that, in new classical theory wages are assumed to be flexible by economists while in new Keynesian theory wages are assumed to be somewhat inflexible.
