All cost relationships remain the same except for a one-time setup charge of $2025. No additional design, marketing, or distribution costs will be incurred. What is the minimum acceptable bid per unit on this one-time-only special order

Answers

Answer: $186.70

Explanation:

The minimum acceptable bid per unit on this one-time-only special order will be calculated as:

Direct material per unit = $23

Add: Direct labor (1200/1500) × $9 = $7.2

Add: Variable manufacturing overhead ($214500/$1500) = $143

Add: Special charge (2025/150) = $13.5

Minimum price = $23 + $7.2 + $143 + $13.5 = $186.70

Why were metal Coins suitable by then​

Answers

Answer:

The coinage metals comprise, at a minimum, those metallic chemical elements which have historically been used as components in alloys used to mint coins. The term is not perfectly defined, however, since a number of metals have been used to make "demonstration coins" which have never been used to make monetized coins for any nation-state, but could be. Some of these elements would make excellent coins in theory (for example, zirconium), but their status as coin metals is not clear. In general, because of problems caused when coin metals are intrinsically valuable as commodities, there has been a trend in the 21st century toward use of coinage metals of only the least exotic and expensive types.

On January 1, 2007, Nichols Company's inventory of Item X consisted of 2,000 units that cost $8 each. During 2007 the company purchased 5,000 units of Item X at $10, each, and it sold 4,500 units. Periodic inventory procedure is used. Cost of goods sold using weighted-average cost is:

Answers

Answer:

For the cost of goods sold, the company made around $42,435

Explanation:

Solve cost of goods for Jan. 1st:

2000 units × $8

$16,000

Solve for cost of goods during 2007:

5000 units × $10

$50,000

Use the formula for weighted-average cost:

WAC per unit = cost of goods available for sale / units available for sale

WAC per unit = 16,000 + 50,000 / 2000 + 5000

WAC per unit = 66,000 / 7000

WAC per unit = 9.42857..... I will round to a dollar value

WAC per unit = 9.43

For cost of goods sold:

4,500 × 9.43 (please keep in mind 9.43 is a rounded number)

$42,435

The cost of goods sold using  weighted-average cost under Periodic inventory is $42,429

Before calculating the cost of goods sold, first we have to determine the weighted average cost per unit.

For this following formula should be used:

= (Opening units × cost per unit + purchased units × cost per unit) ÷ (opening units + purchased units)

= (2,000 units × $8 + 5,000 units × $10) ÷ (2,000 units + 5,000 units)

= ($16,000 + $50,000) ÷ (7,000 units)

= $66,000 ÷ 7,000 units

= $9.428

Now the cost of goods sold using  weighted-average cost is

= Number of units sold × average cost per unit

= 4,500 units × $9.428

= $42,429

Hence, we conclude that the cost of goods sold using weighted-average cost under Periodic inventory is $42,429.

Four hospitals are located within a city at coordinate points P1=(10,20), P2=(14,12), P3=(8,4) and P4=(32,6). The hospitals are served by a centralized blood bank facility that is located in the city. The number of deliveries to be made each year between the blood bank facility and each hospital is estimated to be 450, 1200, 300, and 1500 respectively. If it is desired to locate the blood bank at a point that minimizes the weighted distance traveled per year, where should it be located
(i) if travel is rectilinear in the city
(ii) if travel is measured in Euclidean distance.

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of the location of the Blood bank = ( 20.7826, 9.73913 )

Explanation:

Coordinates of the Four(4) hospitals are

P1=(10,20),   P2=(14,12),   P3=(8,4) and   P4=(32,6)

Number of deliveries to be made each year for each hospital respectively:

450,   1200,    300, and 1500

conditions :

(i) if travel is rectilinear in the city

(ii) if travel is measured in Euclidean distance.

Determine where the Blood bank is to located to minimize weighted distance travelled each year

find the values of the below variables :

Total load of the Hospitals( ∑load ) = 450 + 1200 + 300 + 1500 = 3450

Lx = ∑x * load = ∑ 10*450 + -------- + 32*1500 = 71700

Ly = ∑y * load = ∑ 20*450 +--------- + 6*1500 = 33600

The coordinates of the Blood bank = [ ( Lx / ( ∑load ) ) ,  Ly /  ( ∑load ) ]

                                                          =[ (71700/3450) , (33600/3450) ]

Hence The coordinates of the  location of the Blood bank = ( 20.7826, 9.73913 )

At a wage of $40 per hour, he is willing to work 7 hours per week. At $50 per hour, he is willing to work 10 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Rajiv's labor supply between the wages of $40 and $50 per hour is approximately , which means that Rajiv's supply of labor over this wage range is .

Answers

Answer:

PES = 1.59 elastic

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply = percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change in price

% change in quantity = (Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2] = (10 - 7) / [(10 + 7) / 2] = 3 / 8.5 = 35.29%

% change in price = (50 - 40) / [(50 + 40) / 2] = 10 / 45 = 22.22%

PES = 35.29% / 22.22% = 1.59 elastic

On January 1, Year 1, Milton Manufacturing Company purchased equipment with a list price of $31,000. A total of $2,800 was paid for installation and testing. During the first year, Milton paid $4,200 for insurance on the equipment and another $640 for routine maintenance and repairs. Milton uses the units-of-production method of depreciation. Useful life is estimated at 100,000 units, and estimated salvage value is $5,600. During Year 1, the equipment produced 14,000 units. What is the amount of depreciation for Year 1

Answers

Answer:

the amount of depreciation for Year 1 is $3,948

Explanation:

Step 1 : Determine Cost of Equipment

Cost according to IAS 16 means purchase price plus other costs directly incurred in bringing the asset to location and condition of use as intended by management.

Purchase Price                        $31,000

Installation and testing            $2,800

Total Cost                              $ 33,800

Step 2 : Determine the depletion rate

Depletion rate = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated Production

                        = ($ 33,800 - $5,600) ÷ 100,000 units

                        = 0.282

Step 3 : Determine the Depreciation Expense

Depreciation Expense =  Depletion rate x Units Produced

                                     =  0.282 x 14,000 units

                                     = $3,948

Conclusion

the amount of depreciation for Year 1 is $3,948

Answers

Answer:

the amount of the cost of goods sold is $55,120

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of goods sold for the month is shown below:

Since 800 units were sold out of which 360 units would sold at $70 and the remaining units i.e. 440 units would be sold at $68

= 360 units × $70 + 440 units × $68

Perry Investments bought 2,000 shares of Able, Inc. common stock on January 1, 20X1, for $20,000 and 2,000 shares of Baker, Inc. common stock on July 1, 20X1 for $24,000. Baker paid $2,400 of previously declared dividends to Perry on December 31, 20X1. At the end of 20X1, the fair value of the Able stock was $18,000 and the fair value of the Baker stock was $28,000. The stocks were purchased for short-term speculation prior to the effective date of the change in accounting rules for equity investments. Perry owns 10% of each company.

Perry should record the receipt of the Baker dividend as:______

a. DR Cash 2,400 CR Investment in Baker 2,400
b. DR Cash 240 CR Dividend income 240
c. DR Cash 2,400 CR Dividends receivable 2,400
d. DR Dividends receivable 2,400 CR Dividend income 2,400

Answers

Answer:

Perry Investments

Perry should record the receipt of the Baker dividend as:______

c. DR Cash 2,400 CR Dividends receivable 2,400

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Investment in Able, Inc common stock = 2,000 on January 1, 20X1, at a cost of $20,000; December 31, 20X1 fair value = $18,000

Investment in Baker, Inc. common stock  = 2,000 on July 1, 20X1, at a cost of $24,000; December 31, 20X1 fair value = $28,000.

Baker's previously declared dividends on December 31, 20X1 = $2,400

b) Since Baker declared the dividends previously, Perry must have debited its Dividends Receivable account.  Now that payment had been made by Baker, the Dividends Receivable will be credited while the Cash account is debited.

Required: How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?

Answers

Answer:

The amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.

Explanation:

This can be determined using the formula for calculating the future value of growing annuity as follows:

FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - (1 + g)^n) / (r - g)) ...................................... (1)

Where

FV = Future value or the amount on the date of retirement = ?

M = First annual deposit = Annual salary * Deposit percentage = $58,000 * 3% = $1,740

r = annual interest rate = 11%, or 0.11

g = salary growth rate = 6%, or 0.06

n = number of years = 40 years

Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:

FV = $1,740 * (((1 + 0.11)^40 - (1 + 0.06)^40) / (0.11 - 0.06))

FV = $1,740 * 1,094.30298736951

FV = $1,904,087.20

Therefore, the amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.

9. Stabilization Suppose the US educational system improves, making workers more productive. If the federal reserve is trying to stabilize the price level in response, they should A. do nothing, because prices will not change anyhow. B. do nothing, because prices cannot be prevented from changing in the long run C. sell bonds in open market operations. D. lower the reserve requirement. E. increase the discount rate F. Raise taxes. G. Increase government spending.

Answers

Answer:

d

Explanation:

If workers become more productive, the supply curve shifts rightward. As a result prices would fall. In a bid to stabilise price, the federal reserve would conduct an expansionary monetary policy to increase money supply in the economy

Expansionary monetary policy : these are polices taken in order to increase money supply. When money supply increases, aggregate demand increases. reducing reserve requirement and open market purchase are ways of carrying out expansionary monetary policy

Increasing discount rate and selling bonds are examples of contractionary monetary policies. Contractionary monetary policy : these are policies taken to reduce money supply.

Raising tax is an example of contractionary fiscal policy

Increasing government spending is an example of expansionary fiscal policy

When Valley Co. acquired 80% of the common stock of Coleman Corp., Coleman owned land with a book value of $75,000 and a fair value of $125,000. What is the amount of excess land allocation attributed to the noncontrolling interest at the acquisition date

Answers

Answer:

$10,000

Explanation:

The amount of excess land allocation attributed to the non controlling interest at the acquisition date is computed below;

Non controlling interest of acquisition date

= (Book value of land - Fair value of land) × 20%

Given that;

Book value of land = $125,000

Fair value of land = $75,000

Then,

Non controlling interest of acquisition date

= ($125,000 - $75,000) × 20%

= $50,000 × 20%

= $10,000

You won the lottery and may choose between Prize 1, which would pay you $50,000 today and $200,000 at the end of 10 years OR receive $50,000 today plus some annuity at the end of each year for 10 years. Using an interest rate of 5%, which of the following comes closest to the annuity that will make the present value of both prizes the same?
a. $172,782.65.
b. $38,431.68.
c. $122,782.65.
d. $15,900.91.

Answers

Answer:

Annual payment= $15,900.91

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the present value of Prize 1:

PV= FV / (1 + i)^n

PV= 50,000 + [200,000 / (1.05^10)]

PV= $172,782.65

Now, we need to determine the annuity that would make equal both prizes:

Difference= 172,782.65 - 50,000= $122,782.65

To calculate the annuity that would have a PV of $122,782.65; we need to use the following formula:

Annual payment= (PV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]

Annual payment= (122,782.65*0.05) / [1 - (1.05^-10)]

Annual payment= $15,900.91
