Answer:
Total unitary cost= $50.4
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct materials $ 10.60 per unit
Direct labor $ 20.60 per unit
Variable overhead $ 10.60 per unit
Fixed overhead $ 223,600
Units produced 26,000 units
Under absorption costing, the unit product cost is calculated using the direct material, direct labor, and total unitary fixed overhead.
Fixed unitary overhead= 223,600/26,000= $8.6
Total unitary cost= 10.6 + 20.6 + 10.6 + 8.6
Total unitary cost= $50.4
Your bagel shop uses both capital and labor in the production of bagels. In this production process capital and labor are substitutes. If you install a new oven and the marginal product of capital increases, you will:
a. reduce the number of workers you employ
b. increase the number of workers you employ
c. reduce the amount of capital you are using not make any changes since you are already maximizing profit
Answer:
The answer is option A) reduce the number of workers you employ
Explanation:
Installing a new oven is capital intensive. So, for a business person to incur an additional capital cost to aid the efficiency of production, something has to give.
In this case, where capital and labor are substitutes, installing a new oven will drastically reduce the workload thereby necessitating a reduction in the number of workers.
By implication, the cost of paying wages which is a recurrent expenditure will reduce. In the long run and if the oven is maintained, it will e a very cost effective option.
Installing a new oven also suggests a marginal increment in capital.
Information on Carney Company's fixed overhead costs follows: Overhead applied $ 361,200 Actual overhead 387,300 Budgeted overhead 372,000 Required: What are the fixed overhead price and production volume variances? (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, or "U" for unfavorable. If there is no effect, do not select either option.)
Answer:
The Fixed overhead price is "U" (unfavorable) and the The fixed overhead production volume is "U" (unfavorable)
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
Fixed overhead price Variance is computed as:
Fixed overhead price Variance = Actual - Budgeted
= 387,300 - 372,000
= 15,300 U
Thus,
The Fixed overhead production volume variance is computed as:
Fixed overhead production volume variance = = Budgeted - applied
= 372,000 - 361,200
= 10,800 U

The following information will be used for 2 questions on this exam: Charlotte Corporation's management keeps track of the time it takes to process orders. During the most recent month, the following average times were recorded per order: Time spent between receipt of order and start of production 3.7 days Time spent ensuring quality levels 0.2 days Time spent working on the product 1.3 days Time spent transporting the product between work stations 0.8 days Time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory 6.9 days What is the throughput time?
Answer:
6.00 days
Explanation:
data provided
Inspection time = 3.7 days
Process time = 0.2 days
Move time = 1.3 days
Queue time = 0.8 days
The calculation of throughput time is given below:-
Throughput time = Inspection time + Process time + Move time + Queue time
= 3.7 days + 0.2 days + 1.3 days + 0.8 days
= 6.00 days
Here, we added the inspection time, process time , move time and queue time to reach at throughput time and we ignore the time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory as it is not relevant.

Financial statement data for the years ended December 31 for Parker Corporation are as follows: Current Year Prior Year Sales $2,595,600 $2,409,498 Fixed assets (net): Beginning of year $901,070 $820,000 End of year 829,330 901,070 a. Determine the fixed asset turnover ratio for the current and prior years. Round your answers to one decimal place. Current Year: Prior Year: b. Does the change in fixed asset turnover ratio from the prior year to the current year indicate a favorable or unfavorable trend
Answer:
we need to calculate the Average Fixed assets for both the periods.
Average Fixed Assets = (Fixed Assets at the beginning + Fixed assets at the ending period)/2
Current Year = ($901070+829330)/2
= 1730400/2
=$865200
Prior Year = $820000+901070
= 1721070/2
= $860535
Fixed Assets Turnover = Sales/Average Fixed Assets
Current year = $2595600/865200
= 3
Prior Year = $2409498/860535
= 2.8
b) There is an increase in the Fixed asset turnover which indicates an increase in efficiency of using fixed assets to generate sales.
Answer:
a. Current year 1.5 Prior year 1.4
b. Yes it indicates a favorable trend as it shows that sales of $1.50 was generated for every $1 invested in current year as against $1.40 for every $1 invested in prior year.
Explanation:
Fixed Asset turnover is the ratio of revenue to average Fixed assets of a company.
It is a financial indicator that shows how much revenue a company generates in an accounting period for each $ 1 invested in assets (fixed asset in this case).
Average assets in the
current year
= $901,070 + $829,330
= $1,730,400
Prior year
= $820,000 + $901,070
= $1,721,070
As such fixed assets turnover for
current year
= $2,595,600/$1,730,400
= 1.5
prior year
= $2,409,498/$1,721,070
= 1.4
A company used straight-line depreciation for an item of equipment that cost $15,350, had a salvage value of $3,200 and a six-year useful life. After depreciating the asset for three complete years, the salvage value was reduced to $1,535 but its total useful life remained the same. Determine the amount of depreciation to be charged against the equipment during each of the remaining years of its useful life: Multiple Choice $2,880. $5,672. $1,215. $2,580. $3,200.
Answer:
The correct answer is $2,580.
Explanation:
Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($15,350 - $3,200) / 6 years = $2,025 yearly depreciation expense.
Accumulated depreciation at Year 3 = $2,025 x 3 = $6,075
Net book value (NBV) becomes $15,350 - $6,075 = $9,275
New depreciation is ($9,275 - $1,535) / 3 years = $2,580 yearly depreciation expenses
g Smiley Corporation wholesales repair products to equipment manufacturers.

Suppose that you are the international treasurer of Apple with an extra U.S. $10 million to invest for 9 months. You are considering the purchase of U.S. T-bills that yield 1.50% annual rate. The spot exchange rate is $1.00 = ¥100, and the 9 month forward rate is $1.00 = ¥110. What must the interest rate in Japan be before you are willing to consider investing there for 9 months? A. 14.5515 B. <8.8975 C. >13.4983 D. 12.5050
Answer:
Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%
Explanation:
As per Interest Rate Parity Theory
Spot Rate : 1$ = 100
Forward Rate : 1 $ = 110
r = 9/12
As per interest rate parity, forward rate = Spot rate(1+Interest rate Japan)/(1+Interest rate US)
Forward rate = Spot rate *(1+ iD)/(1+iF)
110 / 100 = (1 + Japan Interest Rate * 9 /12) / 1.01125
1.1 * 1.01125 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75
1.112375 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75
Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 1.112375 - 1
Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 0.112375
Japan Interest Rate = 0.112375 / 0.75
Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%

Smart Stream Inc. uses the total cost method of applying the cost-plus approach to product pricing. The costs of producing and selling 10,000 units of cell phones are as follows: Variable costs per unit: Fixed costs: Direct materials $150 Factory overhead $350,000 Direct labor 25 Selling and administrative expenses 140,000 Factory overhead 40 Selling and administrative expenses 25 Total variable cost per unit $240 Smart Stream desires a profit equal to a 30% return on invested assets of $1,200,000.
a. Determine the variable costs and the variable cost amount per unit for the production and sale of 10,000 cellular phones. Total variable cost $ Variable cost amount per unit $
b. Determine the variable cost markup percentage for cellular phones. Round to two decimal places.
c. Determine the selling price of cellular phones. If required, round to the nearest dollar.
Answer:
(a). Total variable Cost = $2,890,000
Total variable Cost Per Unit = $289
(b). Variable Cost Markup Percentage = 12.46%
(c). Selling Price Per Unit = $325
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
a). Total Fixed Cost = Selling and Administrative Expenses + Factory Overhead
= $140,000 + $350,000 = $490,000
Fixed Cost Per Unit = Total Fixed Cost ÷ Cost of Produced and Selling Units
= $490,000 ÷ 10,000 = $49
Total variable Cost Per Unit = Fixed Cost Per Unit + Variable Cost Per Unit
= $49 + $240 = $289
Total variable Cost = Cost of Produced and Selling Units × Total Cost Per Unit
= 10,000 × $289 = $2,890,000
b). Desired Profit = Invested Assets × 30%
= $1,200,000 × 30÷100 = $360,000
Variable Cost Markup Percentage = Desired Profit ÷ Total Cost
=$360,000 ÷ $2,890,000 = 0.1246 = 12.46%
c). Selling Price Per Unit = (1 + Variable Cost Markup Percentage) × Total Cost Per Unit
= (1 + 12.46%) × $289
= 1.1246 × $289
= $325
he principle that suggests that the distribution of income should be based on the contribution made by individuals to society's total output is known as A. the functional distribution of income. B. the relative poverty standard. C. the productivity standard. D. the egalitarian principle. The productivity standard fails to yield an equal distribution of income because A. individuals have different abilities and skills. B. it is difficult to measure productivity accurately. C. richer countries have higher productivity than poorer countries. D. diminishing marginal productivity holds.
Answer:
The principle that suggests that the distribution of income should be based on the contribution made by individuals to society's total output is known as:
C. the productivity standard.The productivity standard fails to yield an equal distribution of income because:
A. individuals have different abilities and skills.Explanation:
Generally speaking, productivity refers to how many units of output we can produce by using X amount of units of inputs. The higher the output, the more productive we are.
The same principle is used by the productivity standard to allocate resources in a society. This is a basic doctrine of capitalism that believes that more work and more productivity should equal more income. That is why capitalistic countries tend to have unequal income distribution.
Harry and Meghan have considered starting their own business but are concerned about the possibility of losing even their personal assets if the business fails. One way for BOTH Harry and Meghan to avoid this liability risk would be to :
A.
divorce as soon as possible and establish two sole proprietorships
B.
Organize a limited partnership with Harry as the general partner
C.
set up offshore accounts
D.
form a corporation
Answer:
The correct option is D,form a corporation
Explanation:
The rationale for my choice of answer is that limited liability applies to a corporation which is found in other types of businesses.
Limited liability is a concept which implies that the liability of shareholders in a limited liability company is limited to the amount contributed to the business by a way of shares held in the company.
When a company runs into debt,the shareholders would not be required to make up such debts from their private pockets,hence Harry and Meghan personal effects are secure.
The way for Harry and Meghan to avoid liability risk is to form a corporation
Typically, a limited liability applies to a corporation which means that the owner liability is limited to the amount he owns in the business.
Limited liability implies that liability of shareholders is limited to the amount contributed to the business by a way of shares held in the company.
So, when company runs into debt, the shareholders would not be required to make up such debts from their private pockets,therefore, the investment of Harry and Meghan are secure.
Hence, the only way for Harry and Meghan to avoid liability risk is to form a corporation
Therefore, the Option D is correct.

The manufacturing overhead budget at Cutchin Corporation is based on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 2,800 direct labor-hours will be required in September. The variable overhead rate is $7.00 per direct labor-hour. The company’s budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $43,120 per month, which includes depreciation of $3,640. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The September cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:
Answer:
$59,080
Explanation:
The calculation of September cash disbursements is shown below:-
September cash disbursement = Company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead - Depreciation + Variable manufacturing overhead
= $43,120 - $3,640 + $7.00 × 2,800
= $43,120 - $3,640 + $19,600
= $62,720 - $3,640
= $59,080
Therefore for computing the September cash disbursement we simply applied the above formula.
Foreman Mining purchased land containing a copper deposit for $2,640,000 on January 7, 2021. The company expects to mine 770,000 tons of copper over the next 10 years, and the land is expected to have a residual value of $1,408,000. The company has also purchased mining equipment for $570,000 that will be used only at this site over the 10 years with an estimated residual value of $54,100. By the end of the first year, the company has mined and sold 61,000 tons of copper. What is the cost attributed to copper inventory for 2021, assuming the company uses the units-of-production method?
Answer:
$138,470
Explanation:
cost of mine = $2,640,000
residual value of the land = $1,408,000
cost of equipment = $570,000
residual value = $54,100
it should contain 770,000 tons of copper
units of production depreciation method:
depreciation of mine = ($2,640,000 - $1,408,000) / 770,000 tons of copper = $1.60 per ton of copperdepreciation of equipment = ($570,000 - $54,100) / 770,000 tons of copper = $0.67 per ton of coppertotal depreciation per ton of copper = $1.60 + $0.67 = $2.27since 61,000 tons were extracted, then the depreciation expense = 61,000 x $2.27 = $138,470

Answer:
I only is correct. That is, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.
Explanation:
Holding every other condition constant, the cutting of the company's dividend payout will lead to a permanent fall in the dividend per share and this will cause a decrease in price.
However, the cutting the company's dividend payout will increased the retention rate that will increase the growth rate of the company.
Therefore, all else equal, the firm's growth rate will accelerate after the payout change.

Assume the cost object is units of production: a. What is the total direct manufacturing cost incurred to make 12,500 units? b. What is the total indirect ma
Answer:
a. $142,500
b. $86,250
Explanation:
a. The computation of the total direct manufacturing cost is shown below:
= (Direct material per unit + direct labor per unit) × number of units manufactured
= ($7.20 + $4.20) × 12,500 units
= $142,500
b. The computation of the total indirect manufacturing cost is shown below:
= (Variable manufacturing overhead per unit + Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit) × number of units manufactured
= ($1.70 + $5.20) × 12,500 units
= $86,250
Todd is working on resource scheduling in preparation for the start of a project. There is a potential problem in the works, however, as the new collective bargaining agreement with the company's union has not been concluded. Todd decides to continue working on the resource schedule in anticipation of a satisfactory settlement. Todd's approach would be an example of which method of dealing with risk
Answer:
Accept it.(Risk).
Explanation:
This is commonly known also as risk retention which is been encountered in business or investments. Many businesses use risk management techniques to identify, assess and prioritize risks for the purpose of minimizing, monitoring, and controlling said risks.
Most businesses and risk management personnel will find that they have greater and more numerous risks than they can manage, mitigate, or avoid given the resources they are allocated. As such, businesses must find a balance between the potential costs of an issue resulting from a known risk and the expense involved in avoiding or otherwise dealing with it. Types of risks include uncertainty in financial markets, project failures, legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes and disasters, and overly aggressive competition.

Turner's contribution was $1,323,000 in 2021 and benefits paid to retired employees was $987,000. The amount of AOCI (net gain) amortized in 2021 is
Answer:
The amount of AOCI (net gain) amortized in 2021 is $26,250
Explanation:
In order to calculate the calculate the amount of AOCI (net gain) amortized in 2021 we would have to use the following formula:
amount of AOCI (net gain) amortized in 2021=(AOCI net gain 12/31/20-Corridor amount for 2021)/Average remaining service life
AOCI net gain 12/31/20=$1,512,000
Corridor amount for 2021=$1,092,000=10,920,000*10%
Average remaining service life=16
Therefore, AOCI (net gain) amortized in 2021=($1,512,000-$1,092,000)/16
AOCI (net gain) amortized in 2021=$26,250

Which of the following statements generates the greatest amount of disagreement among economists? a. Increases in the money supply shift aggregate demand to the right. b. In the long run, increases in the money supply increase prices, but not output. c. Recessions are associated with decreases in consumption, investment, and employment. d. Government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy.
Answer:
d. Government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy.
Explanation:
Suggesting that the government should use fiscal policy to try to stabilize the economy generates the greatest amount of disagreement among economists because the process of implementing fiscal policy usually experiences lag as it is being slowed down by the political system (bureaucracy) of checks and balances.
Fiscal policy is the use of government expenditures, revenues and tax policies to influence macroeconomic conditions such as employment, inflation and Aggregate Demand (ADl in a specific country.
The benefits of fiscal policy is that investments, savings and growth is usually influenced in the long-run while it basically influences aggregate demand for goods and services in the short-run.
Decision on Accepting Additional Business Homestead Jeans Co. has an annual plant capacity of 65,000 units, and current production is 45,000 units. Monthly fixed costs are $54,000, and variable costs are $29 per unit. The present selling price is $42 per unit. On November 12 of the current year, the company received an offer from Dawkins Company for 18,000 units of the product at $32 each. Dawkins Company will market the units in a foreign country under its own brand name. The additional business is not expected to affect the domestic selling price or quantity of sales of Homestead Jeans Co. a. Prepare a differential analysis dated November 12 on whether to reject (Alternative 1) or accept (Alternative 2) the Dawkins order. If an amount is zero, enter "0". If required, use a minus sign to indicate a loss.
Answer and Explanation:
The preparation of the differential analysis is presented below:
Particulars Order rejected (Alternative 1) order accepted (Alternative 2) Differential Effect on Income (Alternative 2)
Revenues $0 $576,000 $576,000

Costs
Variable Manufacturing Costs $0 $522,000 -$522,000
($18,000 × $29)
Income (Loss) $0 $54,000 $54,000
We simply deduct the variable manufacturing cost from the revenues so that the income or loss could come
Granite State Airlines serves the route between New York and Portsmouth, NH, with a single-flight-daily 100-seat aircraft. The one-way fare for discount tickets is $100, and the one-way fare for full-fare tickets is $150. Discount tickets can be booked up until one week in advance, and all discount passengers book before all full-fare passengers. Over a long history of observation, the airline estimates that full-fare demand is normally distributed, with a mean of 56 passengers and a standard deviation of 23, while discount-fare demand is normally distributed, with a mean of 88 passengers and a standard deviation of 44.
a) A consultant tells the airline they can maximize expected revenue by optimizing the booking limit. What is the optimal booking limit? (Hint: Use the standard normal cumulative distribution table)
b) The airline has been setting a booking limit of 44 on discount demand, to preserve 56 seats for full-fare demand. What is their expected revenue per flight under this policy? (Hint: First find the expected revenue when b= 0. Here you can assume Probability{df = k} = Ff(k+0.5) – Ff(k-0.5) and use a spreadsheet. Then using the recursive formula, find the expected revenue if b is increased by 1 until it reaches b=44 using a spreadsheet)
c) What is the expected gain from the optimal booking limit over the original booking limit?
d) A low-fare competitor enters the market and Granite State Airlines sees its discount demand drop to 44 passengers per flight, with a standard-deviation of 30. Full-fare demand is unchanged. What is the new optimal booking limit?
Answer:
Given data: One flight with total seats = 100
Full fare passengers, cost per ticket=$150, mean=56 passengers, SD=23
Discount fare passengers, cost per ticket=$100, mean=88 passengers, SD=44
(a) Here, though there is a hint to use the CDF, since the confidence interval is not given we will make some simplying assumptions that will reduce the complexity of the question, of course keeping the question statistically correct.
this question wants us to maximize total revenue per flight (one way), we can do that by taking only full fare passengers or total revenue will be 150*100=$15,000, but since historical probability shows a mean of 56 with a standard deviation of 23, we can assume in best case scenario total full fare ticket passengers will be 56+23=79, leaving 21 tickets for discount passenger, in this case the total revenues will be 79*150+21*100=$13,950
(b) Now, the new constrained policy is giving a clear cut number of seats to each category of pasengers, 44 for discount (total revenues 44*100) and 56 for full fare (total revenues 56*150) both of which are within the probabilities given earlier (full fare mean=56, discount mean=88). Total revenues in case will be 44*100+56*150=$12,800.
(c) Gain is the difference of the excess revenues in both cases of optimal total revenues and limited seats policy or answer (a) - answer (b) = $13,950- $12,800=$1,150
(d) Realistically speaking, there is no answer for this question without a clear cut confidence interval. Another simplifying assumption we can make here is taking the mean passengers as expected bookings (can be tweaked once confidence interval or degree of significance is given). so total revenues in this case will be 44*100 from discount and 56*150 from full fare passengers. That is still similar to answer (c) due to our assumption/lack of constraints, so our optimal booking will be 54 full fare tickets and 44 discount passenger tickets. You can also take worst case scenario by subtracting SD of each passenger type from the mean or go the best case scenario in which SD of full fare will be added to the mean while the pending seats (left over from 100) will be the total to discount fare for optimal revenue collection.
Given knowledge: One flight with a total capacity of 100 passengers.
Passengers paying full fare, the average ticket price of $150, mean of 56 passengers, SD of 23
Participants on a discount price, with a ticket cost of $100, a mean of 88 passengers, and a standard deviation of 44.
(a) Spite of the fact there is a hint to utilize the CDF because statistical power is not supplied, we will make some presumptions to minimize the complexity of the question whilst retaining statistical accuracy.
We can do so by hardly taking full-fare passengers, in which particular instance total revenue will be 150*100=$15,000, but since historical probability shows a mean of 56 with a standard deviation of 23.
we can assume that total full fare ticket passengers will be 56+23=79, leaving 21 tickets for discount passengers, in which case total revenues will be[tex]79\times150+21\times100=\$13,950.[/tex]
(b) This new limited program now assigns a specific number of seats to each passenger category: 44 for discount (total revenues [tex]44\times100[/tex]) and 56 for full-fare (total revenues [tex]56\times150[/tex]), both of which are within the probability (full fare mean=56, discount mean=88).
In this instance, total revenues will be [tex]44\times100+56\times150=\$12,800.[/tex]
(c) Gain is the differential between the excess earnings in both the ideal overall revenue and restricted seat policies or $13,950- $12,800=$1,150.
(d) Without a well-defined standard error, there is no real answer to this question. Another assumption we might make to make things easier is to treat the average passengers as projected bookings. In this instance, total revenues will be 44*100 from discount passengers and 56*150 from full rate passengers.
Due to our assumption/lack of limitations, our ideal booking will be 54 full-price tickets and 44 discount passenger tickets, which is comparable to the solution (c).
You may alternatively go for the worst-case scenario by subtracting the SD of each passenger type from the mean, or the best-case scenario by adding the SD of the full fare to the mean and using the pending seats (leftover from 100) to discount the fare for optimal revenue collection.
