The quantity demanded of cereal increased from 1,350 to 1,700 when the price of milk decreased from $2.05 to $1.65. What is the estimated cross-price elasticity of demand for cereal
Answers
Answer:
-1.33
Explanation:
Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.
If cross price elasticity of demand is positive, it means that the goods are -substitute goods.
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.
If the cross-price elasticity is negative, it means that the goods are complementary goods.
Complementary goods are goods that are consumed together
Cross Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded of good A / percentage change in price of good B
percentage change in quantity demanded of good = (1700/ 1350) - 1 = 0.259
percentage change in price = (1.65 / 2.05) - 1 = -0.195
0.259 / -0.195 = -1.33
Tracey Sales Co. has predicted the following costs for this year for 500,000 units: Manufacturing Selling and Administrative Variable $ 800,000 $250,000 Fixed 1,200,000 300,000 Total $2,000,000 $550,000 What is the markup on variable manufacturing costs needed to break even
Answers
Answer: 218.75%
Explanation:
In order to breakeven, the variable manufacturing cost would have to be the same as the fixed costs in addition to the administrative costs.
= Fixed costs + Administrative cost
= 1,200,000 + 550,000
= $1,750,000
Variable cost needs to be $1,750,000
It is currently at $800,000 so it needs to increase by:
= 1,750,000 / 800,000 * 100%
= 218.75%

True
Explanation:
The answer to this question is true. The recording of assets is usually done at cost. This is equivalent to the value that was exchanged when the asset was sold. In a country like the United States for example, if an asset such as a land or machine gets to appreciate in value after a period of time, it is not usually revalued. Therefore the answer to this question is true.

On Jan 1 2020, Ethan Corporation issued 12% bonds with a face value of $4,000,000. These bonds mature in ten years, and interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds were sold for $4,498,490 to yield 10%. Ethan uses a calendar-year reporting period. Using the effective-interest method of amortization, what amount of interest expense should be reported for 2020
Answers
Answer:
Ethan Corporation
Using the effective-interest method of amortization, the amount of interest expense that should be reported for 2020 is:
= $449,096
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Face value of bonds issued = $4,000,000
Issue price of the bonds = 4,498,490
Premium on the bonds = $498,490 ($4,498,490 - $4,000,000)
Coupon interest rate = 12%
Effective interest rate = 10%
Interest payments = June 30 and December 31
June 30:
Cash payment for bond interest = $240,000 ($4,000,000 * 6%)
Interest expense = 224,925 ($4,498,490 * 5%)
Amortization of bond premium = $15,075 ($240,000 - $224,925)
Bonds value = $4,483,415 ($4,498,490 - $15,075)
December 31:
Cash payment for bond interest = $240,000 ($4,000,000 * 6%)
Interest expense = 224,171 ($4,483,415 * 5%)
Amortization of bond premium = $15,829 ($240,000 - $224,171)
Bonds value = $4,467,586 ($4,483,415 - $15,829)
Interest expense for 2020 = $449,096 ($224,925 + $224,171)

Actual use per year was as follows: Year Hours Used 1 3,100 2 1,100 3 1,200 4 2,800 5 2,600 6 1,200 2. Prepare a depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.
Answers
Answer:
Year Depreciation expenses
1 $90,000
2 $60,000
3 $40,000
4 $26,667
5 $17,778
6 $11,556
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.
The double-declining-balance method is a depreciation approach in which the rate of depreciation for an asset is twice the rate of depreciation for the straight line method.
In the attached excel, the double-declining-balance depreciation rate is therefore calculated as follows:
Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Number of expected useful years = 1 / 6 = 0.166666666666667 = 16.6666666666667%
Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = 16.6666666666667% *2 = 33.3333333333334%
Also note the following in the attached excel file:
Beginning depreciable amount in Year 1 = Cost of the new machine = $270,000
The depreciation expenses for Year 6 is calculated by deducting the residual value of $24,000 from Year 6 Beginning depreciable amount. That is:
Depreciation expenses for Year 6 = $35,556 - $24,000 = $11,556
The residual value of $24,000 therefore represents the book value at the end of Year 6.
From the attached excel file, we therefore have:
Year Depreciation expenses
1 $90,000
2 $60,000
3 $40,000
4 $26,667
5 $17,778
6 $11,556

rt, a $0.73 per share cash dividend was declared by the board of directors for it common stock. On 12/31, the date of declaration, there were 98,000 shares authorized, 59,000 shares issued, and 8,000 Treasury shares. On the date of the dividend declaration, what amount will Walmart record into their dividend account
Answers
Answer:
$36,792
Explanation:
Missing word "At Walmart, the board of directors declared a $0.73"
Outstanding stockholder = Issued stockholder - Treasury stock
Outstanding stockholder = 59,000 shares - 8,600 shares
Outstanding stockholder = 50,400 shares
Amount of Dividend = Declared per share cash dividend * Outstanding stockholder
Amount of Dividend = 50,400 shares * $0.73
Amount of Dividend = $36,792
So therefore, on the date of the dividend declaration, $36,792 shall be recorded by Walmart into their dividend account.

An FI purchases at par value a $100,000 Treasury bond paying 10 percent interest with a 7.5 year duration. If interest rates rise by 4 percent, calculate the bond's new value. Recall that Treasury bonds pay interest semiannually. Use the modified duration valuation equation.
Answers
Answer:
The bond's new value is $70,000
Explanation:
First calculate the percentage change in the value of the bond
Duration = Percentage change in price / Percentage change in yield
Percentage change in price = Duration x Percentage change in yield
where
Duration = 7.5 years
Percentage change in yield = 4%
Percentage change in price = ?
Placing value sin the formula
Percentage change in price = 7.5 x 4%
Percentage change in price = 0.30
Percentage change in price = 30%
As we know that the value of the bond and the yield rate are inversely proportional to each other, If the yield rate increases the value of the bond decreases due to the discounting factor used in the valuation o the bond.
Hence, the value of the bond is calculated as follow
Value of the bond = Par value of the bond x ( 1 - per centage of change in the price of the bond
Value of the bond = $100,000 x ( 1 - 30% )
Value of the bond = $100,000 x 0.70
Value of the bond = $70,000

a) He should lower the job specifications for Hispanic applicants.
b) He should continue using the current recruiting practices because only organizations with affirmative action plans are required to meet EEO guidelines.
c) He should start advertising for job openings on the local Spanish radio station.
d) He should freeze the hiring process until qualified Hispanics apply for vacant positions
Answers
Answer: c) He should start advertising for job openings on the local Spanish radio station.
Explanation:
This realization by Paul should make him want to hire more Hispanics into the company and the best way to do so would be to advertise it in such a way that Hispanics have a better chance of hearing about job openings.
Advertising on Spanish radio would ensure that Hispanics hear the advertisements because they are the main ethnicity that speaks Spanish. This will give them an edge in learning about job openings and enable Paul to hire more Hispanics.
With so many workers habituated to using mobile devices for so much of their work, should company management develop apps for influencing subordinates? Explain your reasoning.
Answers
Answer:
This is not a yes or no answer.
The action of leadership/management would depend on their assessment of the impact of the habit on the results being delivered by the workers.
The questions to ask are:
Does the use of the mobile phone for their work reduce or increase productivity?Does what are the advantages? are there disadvantages?What would developing an app achieve for management?Explanation:
In trying to influence workers who are already habituated or accustomed to a particular way of doing things, it is best practice to study the culture and establish what its advantages are. This can then be compared to its demerits. If the demerits clearly and consistently present risks that make of no relevance the advantages, the leader(s) must move to correct such a risk.
So assuming that using mobile phones makes ICT risks (such as loss of company data, loss of company data, risk of unauthorised access etc) even more pronounced, whether or not the app is the best solution will depend on the total cost of that solution to the company weighed against other options.
Other options could simply be
- looking for an already existing app
- banning the using of mobile phone for office work using etc
- re-establishing the use of laptops as the preferred work tool
In any of the above scenarios, the leadership will succeed in influencing its workers positively if it:
plays its part well as a cultural shift role modelbecomes an arbiter of the policies modifying changes affecting work styleencourages the new workstyle by rewarding those that embrace it openly manage change by ensuring that there is a training platform that helps ease the transition into the new work style.Cheers

a. Calculate the weighted-average unit cost. (Round answer to 3 decimal places, e.g. 5.125.)
Weighted-average unit cost = Total Cost of units of inventory available for sale / Total units of units of inventory available for sale = $891 / 98 = $9.092
b. Calculate the ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO, LIFO and average-cost methods. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)
Ending inventory in units = Total units of units of inventory available for sale – Units sold = 98 - 69 = 29
Therefore, we have:
Ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO method = Ending inventory in units * Unit cost of purchases on May 24 = 29 * $10 = $290
Ending inventory at May 31 using the LIFO method = Ending inventory in units * Unit cost of inventory on May 1 = 29 * $8 = $232
Ending inventory at May 31 using the average-cost method = Ending inventory in units * Weighted-average unit cost = 29 * $9.092 = $264

A public service announcement that shows the aftermath of environmental pollution
Using the information in this section, how would you characterize the way it persuades listeners with emotion?
When the general public feels guilty about not having the ability to try to do something about environmental degradation, there'll be a change from the utilization of inorganic to the use of organic materials. When companies that pollute the environment are charged or closed down, and when the people resort to planting more trees.
Is it effective in persuading you as a listener?
Yes.
Why or why not?
It is very effective in persuading because the listeners put themselves in the situation and feel the effect of not taking care of the environment.
Discuss your findings with your classmates.
When people feel guilty for not taking care of the environment, they're going to take social action aimed toward correcting things. The people imagine how the planet is going to be like 50 years from now and picture how their children and grandchildren will survive. they're therefore compelled to try to do something so on contribute to environmental protection and to support the ecology.
