The nation of Ectenia has 20 competitive apple orchards, which sell apples at the world price of $2 per apple. The following equations describe the production function and the marginal product of labor in each orchard:
Q= 100L -L^2
MPL 100-2L
where Q s the number of apples produced in a day, L s the number of workers, and MPL is the marginal product of labor. Now, suppose the price of apples is back at $2 per apple, but a hurricane destroys half the orchards so only 10 orchards remain. Recall that each orchard's labor demand as a function of the daily wage is L 50-0.25W.
Required:
What is the market's labor demand?
The market's labor demand is L=500−2.5W
Since labor demand as a function of the daily wage is L 50-0.25W.
Hence,
The individual labor demand curve is: L=50−0.25W
Now let determine The market labor demand curve
The market's labor demand is :
L=10(50−0.25W)
L=500−2.5W
Inconclusion The market's labor demand is L=500−2.5W

Bank A offers to lend you money at 10 percent compounded monthly, Bank B at 11 percent compounded quarterly, and Bank C at 12 percent compounded annually. Calculate the effective rates and state which bank offers the lowest cost of borrowed capital.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is given below:
For Bank A,
Effective annual rate is
= (1 + 0.10 ÷ 12)^12 - 1
= 10.47%
For Bank B,
Effective annual rate is
= (1 + 0.11 ÷ 4)^4 - 1
= 11.46%
And,
For Bank C,
Effective annual rate = 12%
Therefore, Bank A is best to borrow at lowest effective annual rate
A physical count of merchandise inventory on July 30 reveals that there are 180 units on hand. Using the FIFO inventory method, the amount allocated to ending inventory for July is
Answer: $3,708
Explanation:
Using FIFO means that the earlier goods are sold before the later ones so the closing inventory would have the latest goods purchased.
If there are 180 units on hand, the cost would be:
54 units purchased at $22(180 - 54) units purchased at $20Closing inventory is:
= (54 * 22) + ( (180 - 54) * 20)
= (54 * 22) + ( 126 * 20)
= $3,708
Frantic Fast Foods had earnings after taxes of $430,000 in 20X1 with 345,000 shares outstanding. On January 1, 20X2, the firm issued 34,000 new shares. Because of the proceeds from these new shares and other operating improvements, earnings after taxes increased by 23 percent.
Required:
a. Compute earnings per share for the year 20X1. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. Compute earnings per share for the year 20X2. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:earnings per share for the year 20X1= $1.25 per share
earnings per share for the year 20X2 = 1.40
Explanation:
Earning per share is calculated as = Earning after taxes ÷ Shares outstanding
Therefore, earnings per share for the year 20X1.
= $430,000 ÷345,000 shares
= $1.25 per share
2. In the next year,there was a change in earnings after tax by 23 percent and an increase in shares by 34,000,
Therefore, we have earnings per share for the year 20X2 as
= ($430,000 × 1.23) ÷ ( 345,000 + 34,000)
=528,900/379000
=1.3955 rounded to 1.40

Many talented teachers at Sunnydale High School resigned from their jobs in the past year. The Administrative President of the school board is in a fix and is unable to identify a reason for this attrition. The school pays competitive wages to its teachers and even gave them a pay hike recently. In this scenario, which of the following points should Sunnydale's Administrative President keep in mind when devising a solution to the problem?
a. Money is the main reason people leave, so the school administration should give its employees a bonus along with the pay hike.
b. When pay is competitive, other job factors become more important than the pay employees receive.
c. Employees are bound to leave, and there is not much employers can do to retain them.
d. Teachers usually leave their jobs because of involuntary turnover, so pay is not a major factor in their retention.
Answer:
b. When pay is competitive, other job factors become more important than the pay employees receive.
Explanation:
In the case when pay should be treated as the competitive so the factors that represent higher orders or requirement becomes more significant if we compared with the money also these requirements could not be fully satisfied due to this they will resign

And, the rest of the options should be considered wrong
There is often litter along highways but rarely in people's yards. Which of the following statements help explain this observation?
a. No one cares if there is litter on the highway
b. When a person litters along a highway, others bear the negative externality of having to clean it up.
c. Littering in your own yard imposes costs to you, so you are less likely to do it.
Answer:
b
c
Explanation:
A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.
Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible
Coase theorem has been proposed as a solution to externality. According to this theory, when there are conflicting property rights, bargaining between parties involved can lead to an efficient outcome only if the bargaining cost is low
Another solution to negative externality is through the activities of charities. Charities can raise donations to limit or regulate the activities of firms that constitutes a negative externality.
Clay Co. produces ceramic coffee mugs and pencil holders. Manufacturing overhead is assigned to production using an application rate based on direct labor hours. Required: a. For 2013, the company's cost accountant estimated that total overhead costs incurred would be $461,100 and that a total of 53,000 direct labor hours would be worked. Calculate the amount of overhead to be applied for each direct labor hour worked on a production run. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $8.7 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated that total overhead costs= $461,100
Estimated total direct labor hours= 53,000
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 461,100 / 53,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $8.7 per direct labor hour

A downside to absorption costing is: ____________
a. not including fixed manufacturing overhead in the cost of the product
b. that it is not really useful for managerial decisions
c. that it is not allowable under GAAP
d. that it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis
Answer: that it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis
Explanation:
Absorption costing refers to the managerial accounting method that is used for capturing all the costs that are associated with the manufacturing of a product. In this case, the direct costs and the indirect costs are all accounted for through the use of this method.
Some of the downside to absorption costing include the fact that it isn't
helpful in a scenario whereby improvement in the financial and operational efficiency is to be analysed. Also, the true reflection of the profit of a business may not be given and it is not well designed for cost-volume-profit analysis.
Therefore, the correct option is D.

This can be infered in the statement that "Generally, individuals that study music achieve more exceptional scores in subjects such as math and language arts". In this case, a connection was emphasized between academics and music.
Krumple Inc. produces aluminum cans. Production of 12-ounce cans has a standard unit quantity of 4.4 ounces of aluminum per can. During the month of April, 304,000 cans were produced using 1,250,000 ounces of aluminum. The actual cost of aluminum was $0.21 per ounce and the standard price was $0.12 per ounce. There are no beginning or ending inventories of aluminum. Calculate the materials price and usage variances using the columnar and formula approaches. Enter amounts as positive numbers and select Favorable or Unfavorable.
Answer:
Material Price Variance : $112,500 Unfavorable
Material Quantity Variance : 3,168 Favorable
Explanation:
Material Quantity Variance:
Standard quantity : 304,000 cans * 4.4 ounces = 1,337,600
Actual Quantity used : 1,311,200
Variance : 26,400 * $0.12 = $3,168 Favorable
Material Price Variance:
Standard Price : [Standard Price * Actual usage]
[$0.12 * 1,250,000] = $150,000
Actual Price [Actual Price * Actual Usage]
[$0.21 * 1,250,000] = $262,500
Variance : $112,500 UnFavorable
The required volume of output to produce the motors will not require any incremental fixed overhead. Incremental variable overhead cost is $21 per motor. What is the effect on income if Derby decides to make the motors
Answer: Income will increase by $16 per unit
Explanation:
Your question isn't complete but the completed question was gotten online and would be used in answering the question accordingly.
The effect on income if Derby decides to make the motors will be calculated thus:
In-house:
Direct material = 38
Direct labor = 50
Overhead (Incremental) = 21
Total variable cost = 109
Outside:
Cost of supply = 125
Therefore, the income per unit will increase by (125 - 109) = 16.
QS 8-7 Computing revised depreciation LO C2 On January 1, the Matthews Band pays $65,800 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for four years and after four years it can sell the equipment for $2,000. Matthews Band uses straight-line depreciation but realizes at the start of the second year that this equipment will last only a total of three years. The salvage value is not changed. Compute the revised depreciation for both the second and third years.
Answer:
$23,925 for both the second and third years
Explanation:
Depreciation is the systemic recognition of the cost of an asset in the profit or loss statement. It is an expense.
Depreciation may be computed on a straight line basis as
Depreciation = (cost - salvage value)/estimated useful life
Given that Matthews Band pays $65,800 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for four years and after four years it can sell the equipment for $2,000
Depreciation in the first year of use
= ($65,800 - $2,000)/4
= $15,950
The carrying amount at the start of the second year
= $65,800 - $15,950
= $49,850
Depreciation for the second year and 3rd year after the company realizes that this equipment will last only a total of three years
= ($49,850 - $2,000)/2
= $47,850/2
= $23,925
Abigail has an inheritance tax lien placed on all of her property. What kind of a lien is it?
Answer:
A general lien is one placed against any and all real and personal property owned by a particular debtor. An example is an inheritance tax lien placed against all property owned by the heir. A specific lien attaches to a single item of real or personal property, and does not affect other property owned by the debtor.
Explanation:
Inheritance tax lien is a kind of general lien.
What is Inheritance tax lien?A percentage of a decedent's estate's value that is distributed to beneficiaries by will, heirs by intestacy, and transferees by operation of law is subject to inheritance tax. Depending on the heir's status relative to the decedent, there are different tax rates. Payments for inheritance taxes are due at the time of the decedent's death and become past due nine months afterwards. A 5% rebate is permitted if inheritance tax is paid within three months of the decedent's passing. The Tax Law encumbers the decedent's real estate upon death to guarantee the payment of any estate taxes owed. The decedent's death date serves as the effective date of the inheritance tax lien. For all dates of death, a release of lien is used unless the decedent and the surviving spouse were the only joint tenants of real estate.
The value of the property has no bearing on whether a release of lien is necessary.
What is general lien?A general lien is the right of one person to keep any things or property that belong to another person that are in his possession until the promise or duty is satisfied.
It is the ability to keep someone else's property as payment for an overall account balance.
Brokers of insurance, bankers, factors, and High Court lawyers can all get a general lien. Without an express agreement to the contrary, the general lien of bankers, factors, wharfinger, attorneys, and policy brokers retains as a security for the overall balance of the account and any items that are to be bailed to them.
Service providers typically receive the broad lien privilege. These identification service providers reserve the right to keep the items that are given to them as bail in order to collect the overall balance of money that is owed by their client. This specific Section is very eager to restrict the use of general liens by stating that no one has the right to assert a general lien unless the parties have expressly provided for it in their contract.

Again, Inc. bonds have a par value of $1,000, a 25 year maturity, and an annual coupon rate of 16.0% with annual coupon payments. The bonds are currently selling for $873. The bonds may be called in 4 years for 116.0% of par. What quoted annual rate of return do you expect to earn if you buy the bonds and company calls them when possible
Answer: 24.10%
Explanation:
The quoted annual rate of return that will be expected to be earned if one buys the bonds and company calls them when possible will be calculated thus:
Call price = 1160
Coupon rate = 16%
Number of compounding period per year = 1
Interest per period = 1000 × 16% = 160
Bond price = 873
Number of years to sell = 4
NPER = 4
Quoted annual rate of return will be:
= Rate(NPER, PMT, -PV, FV)
= Rate(4160, -873, 1160)
= 24.10%
Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is considering a one-year project that requires an initial investment of $600,000; however, in raising this capital, Green Caterpillar will incur an additional flotation cost of 2%. At the end of the year, the project is expected to produce a cash inflow of $840,000. The rate of return that Green Caterpillar expects to earn on the project after its flotation costs are taken into account is:________
a. 29.80
b. 22.35
c. 37.25
d. 33.53
Answer:
c. 37.25%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Caterpillar expects to earn on the project after its flotation costs are taken into account is
First step
Net investment = Additional investment*(1 + Flotation cost rate)
Net investment= $600,000*(1 + 0.02)
Net investment= $612,000
Now let Compute the rate of return (ROR), using this formula
ROR = (Cash inflows – Net investment)/ Net investment
Let plug in the formula
ROR = ($840,000 - $612,000)/ $612,000
ROR = $228,000/ $612,000
ROR=37.25%
Therefore Caterpillar expects to earn on the project after its flotation costs are taken into account is 37.25%.

Therefore the annual operating cash flow is $21,943
You have $100,000 to invest in a portfolio containing Stock X and Stock Y. Your goal is to create a portfolio that has an expected return of 12.1 percent. Stock X has an expected return of 10.28 percent and a beta of 1.20, and Stock Y has an expected return of 7.52 percent and a beta of .80.
a. How much money will you invest in Stock Y? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
b. What is the beta of your portfolio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 3 decimal places, e.g., 32.161.)
a. Investment in Stock Y
b. Portfolio beta
Answer:
a. Amount to invest in Y
The amount that will be invested in Stock Y should be such that the expected return of the portfolio would equal 12.1%.
This would be determined by the weights of the stock.
Assume the weight to be invested in X is x.
Portfolio return = (weight of X * Return of X) + (weight of Y * Return of Y)
12.1% = (x * 10.28%) + ( (1 - x) * 7.52%)
0.121 = 0.1028x + 0.0752 - 0.0752x
0.121 - 0.0752 = 0.1028x - 0.0752x
0.0458 = 0.0276x
x = 0.0458 / 0.0276
= 1.6594
Weight in stock Y:
= 1 - 1.6594
= -0.6594
Amount to invest in Y:
= -0.6594 * 100,000
= -$65,940
b. Portfolio beta
It will be a weighted average of the betas of the two stocks:
= (Weight of stock X * Stock X Beta) + ( Weight of stock Y * Stock Y beta)
= (1.6594 * 1.20) + (-0.6594 * 0.80)
= 1.46
