Answer: vertical line at 0.
Explanation:
In a closed economy, investments from other countries do not come in and the country does not invest in other countries. This means that capital is neither flowing in nor out.
Net capita outflow is the difference between capital flowing in and capital that is flowing out. If there is no capital flowing in nor out then net capital outflow will be 0. On the graph described, net capital outflow will therefore be zero for all real interest rates which will create a vertical line at 0.

Explanation:
Larry estimates that the costs of insurance, license, and depreciation to operate his car total $460 per month and that the gas, oil, and maintenance costs are 33 cents per mile. Larry also estimates that, on average, he drives his car 2,000 miles per month.
Required:
a. How much cost would Larry expect to incur during April if he drove the car 1,545 miles? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. Would it be meaningful for Larry to calculate an estimated average cost per mile for a typical 2,000-mile month?
a. Yes
b. No
Answer and Explanation:
a The computation of the cost is
= $460 + 1,545 miles × 0.33
= $460 + $509.85
= $969.85
b. It should not be considered as the meaningful as the fixed cost would remains the fixed i.e. $460 also the 0.33 per mile should be considered as the variable cost that change with the change in the no of miles covered
Therefore the same should be considered
If the subtotal of the income statement debit column is $250,000, the subtotal of the income statement credit column is $300,000, and the total of the Statement of Retained Earnings debit column is $475,000, what is the beginning balance in Retained Earnings
Answer:
$425,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the beginning balance in Retained Earnings
First step is to prepare the Income Statement
Revenues $300,000
Less Expenses ($250,000)
Profit $50,000
Now let calculate the beginning balance in Retained Earnings
Using this formula
Beginning balance in Retained Earnings= Statement of Retained Earnings debit column -Income Statement Profit
Let plug in the formula
Beginning balance in Retained Earnings=$475,000-$50,000
Beginning balance in Retained Earnings=$425,000
Therefore the beginning balance in Retained Earnings is $425,000
A justification for job training programs is that they improve worker productivity. Suppose that you are asked to evaluate whether more job training makes workers more productive. However, rather than having data on individual workers, you have access to data on manufacturing firms in Ohio. In particular, for each firm, you have information on hours of job training per worker (training) and number of non-defective items produced per worker (output).
Required:
a. Carefully state the ceteris paribus thought experiment underlying this policy question.
b. Does it seem likely that a firm’s decision to train its workers will be independent ofworker characteristics? What are some of those measurable and unmeasurable workercharacteristics?
c. Name a factor other than worker characteristics that can affect worker productivity.
d. If you find a positive correlation between output and training, would you haveconvincingly established that job training makes workers more productive? Explain.
Solution :
a). There is a way to state the question :
If there are two firms, firm A and firm B. Both the forms are same in all the respects but differ in only one thing, that firm A provides job training 1 hour per worker more than the number of hours of training of firm B, by how much the output of firm A would differ than the output from firm B?
b). The manufacturing firms that are located in Ohio will provide the job training based on the characteristics of workers. Some of the determining factors includes years of schooling, experience in a particular job, etc. The firms can even consider the worker's age, race or gender. The training will be provided to the less efficient workers based on their ability.
c). The amount of the capital as well as the technology that is available to the workers would affect the output of the firm. Thus the firms having the same kind of employees would have different outputs when the firms used different technology or different amount of capital.
d). No, unless the training is randomly assigned. The factors are listed above which can contribute to the finding of a positive correlation between the output and the training even when the job training does not improve the productivity of the worker.

Journal Entry
December 1, 2020:
Debit Cash $832,000
Credit Bonds Payable $800,000
Credit Bonds Premium $27,038
Credit Warrants Liability $4,962
To record the issuance of the bonds.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
December 1, 2020:
Face value of nonconvertible bonds with detachable stock purchase warrants = $800,000
Issue price of bonds = $832,000 (1.04 * 800 * $1,000)
Number of bonds issue = 800
Par value per bond = $1,000
Maturity period = 10 years
Coupon interest rate = 10%
Option price of each warrant = $15 per common stock share
Market price of the option = $3
Value of warrant = $4,800 ($3 * 800 * 2)
Allocation of bond price:
Bonds = $827,038 ($800,000/$804,800 * $832,000)
Warrants = $4,962 ($4,800/$804,800 * $832,000)
The Omega started the year with $650,000 in the common stock account and $1,318,407 in the additional paid-in surplus account. The end-of-year balance sheet showed $720,000 and $1,299,310 in the same two accounts, respectively. What is the cash flow to stockholders if the firm paid $68,500 in dividends
Answer:
$17,597
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the cash flow to stockholders
Using this formula
Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends paid - Common stock issued
Let plug in the formula
Cash flow to stockholders= Dividends 68,500 - (1299,310+ 720,000)- (1318407+ 650000)
Cash flow to stockholders= Dividends 68,500 - (2,019,310-1,968,407)
Cash flow to stockholders= 68,500-50,903
Cash flow to stockholders= $17,597
Therefore the cash flow to stockholders if the firm paid $68,500 in dividends is $17,597
Sayid is the sole shareholder of an S corporation in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. At a time when his stock basis is $20,000, the corporation distributes appreciated property worth $40,000 (basis of $20,000). There is no built-in gain. Sayid's taxable gain is:
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
The computation of the taxable gain is shown below:
The corporate gain is
= $40,000 - $20,000
= $20,000
Now the stock basis is increased i.e.
= $20,000 + $20,000
= $40.000
Now the stock basis decreased to zero i.e.
= $40,000 - $40,000
= $0
So, here the taxable gain is of $20,000

Westside Plumbing and Heating Company is offered a contract for$100,000 to provide plumbing for a new building. The labor and equip-ment costs are calculated to be $60,000 for fulfilling the contract. West-side has materials in its inventory to complete the job. The raw ma-terials initially cost the firm $50,000; however the material prices havedeclined in the interim and now cost only $37,500. Thus if thefirmchose not to accept the contract and sells the materials, they wouldincur a loss of $12,500. Material prices are not expected to go up inthe future. Should Westside accept the contract. Explain your answer.
Answer:
Westside Plumbing and Heating Company
Westside should accept the contract.
By accepting the contract at the price of $100,000, Westside incurs a total cost of $97,500 and makes a little profit of $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500). The contract enables Westside to utilize the materials that it has in inventory instead of allowing it to deteriorate further in value.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Contract price = $100,000
Labor and equipment costs = $60,000
Original cost of materials = $50,000
Materials market price = $37,500
Total costs to be incurred = $97,500 ($60,000 + $37,500)
Profit to be earned = $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500)
The Richmond Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The company has only a single processing department. The company's ending work in process inventory on August 31 consisted of 18,600 units. The units in the ending work in process inventory were 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor and overhead. If the cost per equivalent unit for August was $2.90 for materials and $4.40 for labor and overhead, the total cost assigned to the ending work in process inventory was: Multiple Choice $103,044 $81,468 $135,780 $86,676
Answer:
A. $103,044
Explanation:
Ending work in progress inventory = 18,600 units
Cost of equivalent unit for material = $2.90 per unit
Ending work in progress inventory i= 100% complete for material
Total cost of inventory for material = 18,600 units * $2.90 per unit
Total cost of inventory for material = $53,940
Cost of equivalent unit for labor = $4.40
Ending work in progress = 60% complete for labor
Cost of ending work in progress = $4.40 * 60% * 18,600
Cost of ending work in progress = $49,104
Total cost of ending work in progress inventory = $53,940 + $49,104
Total cost of ending work in progress inventory = $103,044

1. Avoidable interest.
2. Total interest to be capitalized during 2020.
Answer:
1. $1,015,000
2. $1,015,000
Explanation:
1. Computation for the Avoidable interest.
First step is to Compute the weighted average interest rate:
Principal Interest
12% ten-year bonds$ 7,000,000 $840,000
9% 3-year note $3,500,000 $315,000
Total $10,500,000 $1,155,000
Weighted average interest rate = $1,155,000 ÷ $10,500,000
Weighted average interest rate= 11%
Now let compute the Avoidable Interest
Weighted Average Accumulated Expenditures *Applicable interest rate = AVOIDABLE INTEREST
$6,300,000 *.10 = $630,000
$3,500,000 *.11= $385,000
Total $9,800,000 $1,015,000
Therefore the Avoidable Interest is $1,015,000
2. Computation for Total interest to be capitalized during 2020
2020 Actual interest cost
Construction note $6,300,000 × .10 =$630,000
12% ten-year bonds, $7,000,000 × .12 =$840,000
9% three-year note, $3,500,000 × .09=$315,000
Total $1,785,000
Therefore Total interest to be capitalized during 2020 will be $1,015,000 which is the LESSER of

Correlation is a statistical measure used to measure the relationship that exists between two variables.
1. Positive correlation : it mean that the two variables move in the same direction. If one variable increases, the other variable also increases. It increases the risk of the portfolio
For example, there should be a positive correlation between quantity supplied and price
When there is a positive correlation, the graph of the variables is upward sloping
2. Negative correlation : it mean that the two variables move in different direction. If one variable increases, the other variable decreases. It decreases the risk of the portfolio
For example, there should be a negative correlation between quantity demanded and price
When there is a negative correlation, the graph of the variables is downward sloping
3. Zero correlation : there is no relationship between the variables. It decreases the risk of the portfolio

MC Qu. 152 Adams Manufacturing allocates... Adams Manufacturing allocates overhead to production on the basis of direct labor costs. At the beginning of the year, Adams estimated total overhead of $364,800; materials of $418,000 and direct labor of $228,000. During the year Adams incurred $426,000 in materials costs, $415,400 in overhead costs and $232,000 in direct labor costs. Compute the overhead application rate.
Answer:
$1.60 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Overhead application rate = Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity
hence,
Overhead application rate = $364,800 ÷ $228,000
= $1.60 per direct labor hour
