Answer:
1. Deductive
2. Inductive
3. Deductive
Explanation:
Deductive research is a form of reasoning that stems from existing theories that can be tested. Data is collected to test a theory and the results are analyzed. The first and third scenarios are deductive research works because there are existing theories or data that can be worked on. In the first instance, data on issues of turnover already exist. In the third scenario, there were theories to explain gender differences.
Inductive research proposes a theory after observation. This is applicable in the second instance where the manager proposes the theory that relates distance to absenteeism after close observation.
When the price of paintings is set at $500, the local art gallery supplies 20 paintings per week. When the price of paintings increases to $750, the gallery supplies 25 paintings. Calculate the price elasticity of supply using the mid-point formula. Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. If you are entering a negative number be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of that number. The price elasticity of supply is: .
Answer:
the price elasticity of supply is 0.555
Explanation:
The computation of the price elasticity of supply is given below:
= Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price
= (25 - 20) ÷ (25 + 20) ÷ 2 ÷ (750 - 500) ÷ (750 + 500) ÷ 2
= 5 ÷45 ÷ 250 ÷ 125
= 0.555
Hence, the price elasticity of supply is 0.555

XYZ produces a single product and has provided the following data for its most recent month of operations:
Number of units produced 6,400
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $72
Direct labor $80
Variable manufacturing overhead $10
Variable selling and administrative expense $12
Fixed costs:
Fixed manufacturing overhead $224,000
Fixed selling and administrative expense $288,000
There were no beginning or ending inventories. The absorption costing unit product cost was: ____________-
Answer: $197
Explanation:
With absorption costing, the fixed manufacturing costs are absorbed by the products which means that the product cost will include fixed costs related to manufacturing.
The absorption costing unit product cost is therefore:
= Direct materials + Direct Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing Overhead per unit
Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit is:
= 224,000 / 6,400 units
= $35 per unit
Absorption cost unit product cost = 72 + 80 + 10 + 35
= $197
Suppose that France and Denmark both produce oil and olives. Frances’s opportunity cost of producing a crate of olives is 4 barrels of oil, while Denmark’s opportunity cost of producing a crate of olives is 7 barrels of oil.
By comparing the opportunity cost of producing olives in the two countries, you can tell that _______has a comparative advantage in the production of olives and ______has a comparative advantage in the production of oil.
Suppose that France and Denmark consider trading olives and oil with each other. France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than _____ of oil for each crate of olives it exports to Denmark. Similarly, Denmark can gain from trade as long as it receives more than _____ of olives for each barrel of oil it exports to France.
Based on your answer to the last question, which of the following terms of trade (that is, price of olives in terms of oil) would allow both Denmark and France to gain from trade?
A__ 6 barrels of oil per crate of olives
B__ 3 barrels of oil per crate of olives
C__ 5 barrels of oil per crate of olives
D__ 8 barrels of oil per crate of olives
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, one can deduce that while (France) has a comparative advantage in the production of olives, it should be noted that on the other hand, (Denmark) has a comparative advantage in the production of oil.
If France and Denmark consider trading olives and oil with each other, then France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than (4) of oil for each crate of olives it exports to Denmark while on the other hand, Denmark can gain from trade as long as it gets more than (1/7) crate of olives for each barrel of oil it exports to France.
The terms of trade that would allow both Denmark and France to gain from trade include:
• 6 barrels of oil per crate of olives.
• 5 barrels of oil per crate of olives.
Department M had 3,000 units 59% completed in process at the beginning of June, 12,800 units completed during June, and 1,000 units 32% completed at the end of June. What was the number of equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June if the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories? a.11,350 units b.13,120 units c.9,800 units d.14,120 units
Answer:
Department M
The number of equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June if the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories is:
a. 11,350 units
Explanation:
Beginning work in process units = 3,000
Degree of completion = 59%
Work to be done during June on the beginning WIP = 1,230 units (3,000 * 41%)
Units started and completed during June = 9,800 Units (12,800 - 3,000)
Ending work in process, equivalent units = 320 (1,000 * 32%)
Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June, using the FIFO method are = 11,350 units

On December 31, the trial balance of Cubico Company included the following accounts with debit balances: Prepaid Advertising $1,500 Advertising Expense 5,400 If it is determined that the cost of advertising applicable to future periods is $3,300, the correct adjusting entry would:_____.
A. Debit Advertising Expense $1,800; credit Prepaid Advertising $1,800.
B. Debit Prepaid Advertising $1,800; credit Advertising Expense $1,800.
C. Debit Prepaid Advertising $3,300; credit Advertising Expense $3,300.
D. Debit Advertising Expense $3,300; credit Prepaid Advertising $3,300.
Answer:
Cubico Company
The correct adjusting entry would be:
B. Debit Prepaid Advertising $1,800; credit Advertising Expense $1,800.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Debit balances on December 31:
repaid Advertising $1,500
Advertising Expense 5,400
Determined future advertising cost = $3,300
The correct adjusting entry would be:
B. Debit Prepaid Advertising $1,800; credit Advertising Expense $1,800.
This will increase the prepaid advertising by $1,800 to $3,300 ($1,500 + $1,800) and reduce the advertising expense by $1,800 to $3,600 ($5,400 - $1,800).
The Wood Valley Dairy makes cheese to supply to stores in its area. The dairy can make 250 pounds of cheese per day (365 days per year), and the demand at area stores is 180 pounds per day. Each time the dairy makes cheese, it costs $125 to set up the production process. The annual cost of carrying a pound of cheese in a refrigerated storage area is $12. Determine the optimal order size and the minimum total annual inventory cost.
Answer: 1. 1170 units
2. $14039
Explanation:
The optimal order size will be:
= ✓2AO/C
where,
A = Annual demand = 180 × 365 days = 65,700
O = Ordering cost = 125
C = Carrying cost = 12
EOQ = ✓(2AO/C)
= ✓(2 × 65700 × 125/12)
= ✓ 1368750
= 1170 units
Therefore, the optimal order size is 1170 units.
2. The minimum total annual inventory cost will be calculated as:
C = (Q /2)(H) +(D/Q)(S)
where,
Q = 1170 pounds
H = holding cost = $12
D = annual demand = 65,700
S =set up cost = $125
Therefore, the minimum total annual inventory cost will be:
C = (Q /2)(H) +(D/Q)(S)
C = {(1170) /2] × 12} + {(65,700 /1170) × 125}
= 7020 +7019
= 14,039
Therefore, the minimum total annual inventory cost is $14,039.

"Rogue Corp. has sales of $4,250,000; the firm's cost of goods sold is $2,500,000; and its total operating expenses are $600,000. The firm's interest expense is $250,000, and the corporate tax rate is 40%. What is Rogue's tax liability"
Answer:
$360,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine Rogue's tax liability
Step 1 is to calculate the gross profit
Using this formula
Gross profit=Sales - Cost of Goods Sold
Let plug in the formula
Gross profit=$4,250,000-$2,500,000
Gross profit=$1,750,000
Step 2 is to calculate operating income
Using this formula
Operating income=Gross Profit -Total operating expenses
Let plug in the formula
Operating income=$1,750,000-$600,000
Operating income=$1,150,000
Step 3 is to calculate the EBT
Using this formula
EBT=Operating income - Interest expense
Let plug in the formula
EBT=$1,150,000-$250,000
EBT=$900,000
Now let calculate the Tax liability
Using this formula
Tax liability=EBT x Corp Tax
Let plug in the formula
Tax liability=$900,000*$40%
Tax Liability=$360,000
Therefore Rogue's tax liability is $360,000

The real interest rate is Group of answer choices the percentage increase in money that the lender receives on a loan. the percentage increase in purchasing power that the lender receives on a loan. also called the after-tax interest rate. usually higher than the nominal interest rate.
Answer:
he percentage increase in purchasing power that the lender receives on a loan.
Explanation:
Interest rate is the rate earned on deposits or the rate charged on loans.
Interest rate could be real or nominal
Nominal interest rate is real interest rate plus inflation rate
Real interest rate is interest rate that has been adjusted for inflation
The higher the real interest rate, the higher the increase in purchasing power of the lender
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

Suppose you invest $210,000 in an annuity that returns 6 annual payments, with the first payment one year from now and each subsequent payment growing by 5%. At an interest rate of 8%, how much is the first annual payment you receive?
Answer:
$40,510.82
Explanation:
Present value = $210,000
Number of annual payments (n) = 6
Growth rate (g) = 5% or 0.05
Interest rate (r) = 8% or 0.08
Amount of first annual payment = [Present value * (r - g)] / [1 - {(1 + g)/(1 + r)}^n]
Amount of first annual payment = [210,000 * (0.08-0.05)] / [1 - [(1+0.05) / (1+0.08)]^6]
Amount of first annual payment = [210,000*0.03] / [1 - (0.972222)^6]
Amount of first annual payment = 6,300 / [1 - 0.844486]
Amount of first annual payment = 6,300 / 0.155514
Amount of first annual payment = 40510.82217678151
Amount of first annual payment = $40,510.82
So, the amount of the first annual payment you will receive is $40,510.82.
Oceanic, a venture capital firm, has the opportunity to invest in one of two firms that are in the process of globalizing. Macmillan, an air-conditioner manufacturer, faces intense pressure from its home market. Rent a Swag, a dog-toy manufacturer, has encountered little competition in its country of origin. In which company should Oceanic invest?
a. Macmillan, because air conditioners cost more to ship than dog toys do
b. Macmillan, because firms that face stiff competition at home tend to do better abroad
c. Rent a Swag, because firms that face little or no competition at home tend to do better abroad
d. Rent a Swag, because dog toys cost less to ship than air conditioners do
Answer: B. Macmillan, because firms that face stiff competition at home tend to do better abroad
Explanation:
Following the information given, it can be deduced that Oceanic should invest in Macmillan, because firms that face stiff competition at home tend to do better abroad.
The fact that Macmillan, which is an air-conditioner manufacturer, faces intense pressure from its home market will have resulted in the company making quality sure conditioners in order to sustain the pressure and have an edge over its local competitors. Therefore, the company will do better abroad as a result of this.

When control is missing the wrongdoings happen at a quick pace because the barrier in their work involves an end. there's no check on the operations and hence many wrongdoings happen without coming into the eyes of management. control helps within the analysis of wrongdoings by comparing with the standards and checks. Hence without control, it's hard to depict the extent of wrongdoings within the organization.
Explanation:
Role of control
Internal controls are policies and procedures put in situ by management to make sure that, among other things, the company’s financial statements are reliable. Some internal controls relevant to an audit include bank reconciliations, password control systems for accounting software, and inventory observations.
Internal controls provide reasonable assurance about achieving objectives regarding:
.Effectiveness and efficiency of operations
.Reliability of financial reporting
.Safeguarding of assets
.Compliance with applicable laws and regulations
Is scented candle harmful to dogs?
Answer:
Scented candles are not harmful to dogs for normal use, but high concentrations in a confined space for a long time would have an impact on the dog's sense of smell.
Because the candles you use will cause a lot of burnt smoke which is harmful to dogs. And aromatherapy ingredients contain a lot of chemical substances. If the windows are opened, it will be ok, if not the more chemical substances accumulate, the more it will be harmful to dogs, or even to the health of people.
Here are several ways to avoid the harm caused by aromatherapy to dogs:
Do not ignite the two types of aromatherapy in a short time or at the same time, to avoid the two types of aromatherapy, which are mutually ineffective and produce toxic gas.
Try not to light candles in a closed bedroom when you sleep.
Keep air circulation.
Keep all kinds of aromatherapy out of reach of dogs.
Use Home Lights scented candles in the right way.

A small business owner visits his bank to ask for a loan. The owner states that she can repay a loan at $1,500 per month for the next 3 years and then $500 per month for three years after that. If the bank is charging customers 10 percent APR, how much would it be willing to lend the business owner?
Answer:
The bank will be willing to lend $ 28,800 to the business owner.
Explanation:
Given that a small business owner visits his bank to ask for a loan, and the owner states that she can repay a loan at $ 1,500 per month for the next 3 years and then $ 500 per month for three years after that, since the bank is charging customers 10 percent APR, to determine how much the business owner would be willing to lend the following calculation must be performed:
1500 x 12 x 3 + 500 x 12 x 3 = X
18000 x 3 + 6000 x 3 = X
54000 + 18000 = X
72000 = X
10 x 6 = 60
100 - 60 = 40
100 = 72000
40 = X
40 x 72000/100 = X
28800 = X
Therefore, the bank will be willing to lend $ 28,800 to the business owner.

Investing $2,000,000 in TQM's Channel Support Systems initiative will at a minimum increase demand for your products 3.0% in this and in all future rounds. Looking at the Round 0 Inquirer for Andrews, last year's sales were $163,189,230. Assuming similar sales next year, the 3.0% increase in demand will provide $4,895,677 of additional revenue. With the overall contribution margin of 34.1%, after direct costs this revenue will add $1,669,426 to the bottom line. For simplicity, assume that the demand increase and margins will remain at last year's levels. How long will it take to achieve payback on the initial $2,000,000 TQM investment, rounded to the nearest
Answer:
the payback period is 14 months
Explanation:
The computation of the payback period is shown below:
Profit is
= $2,000,000 - $1,669,426
= $330,574
Now payback period is
= 1 + $330,574 ÷ $1,669,426
= 1 +0.198 years
= 1.198 years
= 14.37 months
= 14 months
Hence, the payback period is 14 months
If the ABC Company has three lots of products for sale, purchase 1 (earliest) for $20, purchase 2 (middle) for $15 and purchase 3 (latest) for $25, which cost would be assumed to be sold first using FIFO costing
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase 1 (earliest) for $20
Purchase 2 (middle) for $15
Purchase 3 (latest) for $25
The FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, allocates costs to the cost of goods sold using the purchase price of the firsts units incorporated into inventory. On the contrary, the ending inventory cost is calculated with the costs of the lasts units incorporated.
Assume that the company sells the number of units equivalent to the first lot. Then, the cost of goods sold will be $20; and the ending inventory $40 (15+25).

Job-Order Costing versus Process Costing
Types of businesses using job order costing:
a. Hospital services
b. Custom cabinet making
e. Airplane manufacturing (e.g., 767s)
h. Custom furniture making
i. Dental services
l. Auto repair
m. Architectural services
n. Landscape design services
Types of businesses using processing costing:
c. Toy manufacturing
d. Soft-drink bottling
f. Personal computer assembly
g. Furniture making (e.g., computer desks sold at discount stores)
j. Paper manufacturing
k. Nut and bolt manufacturing
o. Flashlight manufacturing
Explanation:
In job order costing, the manufacturer tracks its prime costs to individual products or jobs. This means that the costs of each job can be computed separately because costs are traced to each job. Under process costing, the prime costs are tracked to the department, process or batch, and not to individual products or jobs.
The country of Bolivia had a Gross Domestic Product of $79 billion in 2016 and a population of 11 million people, the GDP per capita would be ________.
Answer:
The GDP per capita of country of Bolivia would be $7,181.82.
Explanation:
GDP Per capita refers to a measure that calculates a country's economic output per person by dividing its GDP by its population.
Therefore, we have:
GDP per capita = GDP / Population = $79 billion / 11 million = $79,000,000,000 / $11,000,000 = $7,181.82
Therefore, the GDP per capita of country of Bolivia would be $7,181.82.
Bialy Company had the following information: Total sales $120,000 Total variable cost 48,000 Operating income 12,000 What is the breakeven sales revenue
Answer:
$100,000
Explanation:
The breakeven sales revenue is the annual fixed cost divided by the contribution margin ratio of the product, which is the amount of sales revenue that the Bialy company needs to achieve in order to make a zero profit.
operating income=sales revenue-variable cost-fixed cost
operating income=$12,000
sales revenue=$120,0000
variable cost=$48,000
fixed cost=unknown
$12,000=$120,000-$48,000-fixed cost
fixed cost=$120,000-$48,000-$12,000
fixed cost=$60,000
total contribution=sales revenue-variable cost
total contribution=$120,000-$48,000
total contribution=$72,000
contribution margin ratio=total contribution margin/sales revenue
contribution margin ratio=$72,000/$120,000
contribution margin ratio=60%
breakeven sales revenue=$60,000/60%
breakeven sales revenue=$100,000
