Song, Inc., uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. The company observed that at 22,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $33.40 per hour. When activity jumped to 25,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $30.40.On the basis of this information, the variable cost per machine hour was:___________A. $8.40.B. $22.00.C. $25.00.D. $30.40.E. $33.40.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Variable cost per unit= $8.4

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total cost for each level of machine hours:

Low activity level:

Total cost= 22,000*33.4= $734,800

High activity level:

Total cost= 25,000*30.4= $760,000

Now, we can determine the variable and fixed costs:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (760,000 - 734,800) / (25,000 - 22,000)

Variable cost per unit= $8.4

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 760,000 - (8.4*25,000)

Fixed costs= $550,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 734,800 - (8.4*22,000)

Fixed costs= $550,000

Answers

Answer:

General Motors (GM)

If  the price of the stock at that time was $36 per share, the true statement is:

a. GM's earnings per share was 3.66.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Price-earnings ratio = 9.84

Market price of stock at that time = $36 per share

Earnings per share = Market price per share/Price-earnings ratio

= $36/9.84 = 3.659

= $3.66

Check:

Price-earnings ratio = Market price per share/Earnings per share

= 9.84 ($36/$3.66)

Suppose a basketball player has made 294 out of 359 free throws. If the player makes the next 3 free throws, I will pay you $20. Otherwise you pay me $26. Step 1 of 2 : Find the expected value of the proposition. Round your answer to two decimal places. Losses must be expressed as negative values.

Answers

Answer: -$0.74

Explanation:

Expected value of the proposition is:

= (Probability that player makes next 3 free throws * 20) - (Probability that player does not make the next 3 free throws * 26)

Probability that player does not make the next 3 free throws  = 294/359 * 294/359 * 294/359

= 0.549235557

Expected value of proposition:

= (0.549235557 * 20) - ( (1 - 0.549235557) * 26)

= 10.98471114 - 11.719875518

When should a company consider issuing debt instead of equity?

Answers

Answer:

Many fast-growing companies would prefer to use debt to support their growth, rather than equity, because it is, arguably, a less expensive form of financing (i.e., the rate of growth of the business's equity value is greater than the debt's borrowing cost).

Explanation:

Answer:

There could be many reasons, but probably the company reached its debt ceiling and is not able to borrow anymore (at acceptable conditions), due to low net cash flow relative to debt service, or low available collateral, or both.

Larger expansions or risky undertakings would also be more likely financed by equity - the expansion might require taking on more debt than the company is currently able to service, and the creditors are not sure if it will also bring sufficient additional EBITDA to service large debt. Similar thing with risky business proposals - it is more logical to finance them through equity, where investors share the hard-to-predict benefits as well as potential losses. If they were to be financed by debt, the loan should in theory carry very high interest to make up for the risk profile of the endeavor. Better to make it an equity investment.

Also, issuing equity improves your balance sheet and enables you to take on more debt. Having more equity could also mean cheaper debt (better interest rates). Debt is considered “senior” to equity, in theory losses should hit investors first and creditors later, so having a larger equity cushion means lower credit risk.

If the company suffered some hard times, they are already starved for cash and on top of that creditors would likely want to reduce their exposure - a perfect storm that could put the company out of business due to lack of liquidity, even when the business model is good in the long term (but who has a crystal ball, eh?). Raising more equity may be their only option.

Beginning work in process are 40,000 units and units started this period are 20,000 units. The total units to account for are:______.

Answers

Answer: 60,000

Explanation:

Since we are given the information that the beginning work in process are 40,000 units and units started this period are 20,000 units, then the total units to account for will be the addition of the beginning work in process and the units started this period. This will be:

= 40000 + 20000

= 60000

Therefore, the total units to account for is 60000.

A​ firm's marginal product of labor is 4 and its marginal product of capital is 5. If the firm adds one unit of labor but does not want its output quantity to​ change, the firm should A. add 1.25 units of capital. B. use 1.25 fewer units of capital. C. use 0.8 fewer units of capital. D. use 5 fewer units of capital.

Answers

Answer: C. use 0.8 fewer units of capital.

Explanation:

The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution (MRTS) shows how much you can decrease capital or labor by in order to keep production constant if you increase either capital or labor.

It is calculated by the formula:

= Marginal product of labor  / Marginal product of capital

= 4 / 5

= 0.8

The firm should use 0.8 fewer units of capital in order to maintain the same production level.

Based on the question given, we've to choose between the lower of the fair value of the equipment or the present value of the lease payments. Hence, in this case we will choose $240000.

Then, the amortization expense per year will be:

= $240,000 / 6 years

= $40,000

Therefore, the company should debit amortization expense for $40,000.

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

B. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of labor by one unit (holding capital constant).
C. if the firm reduced its capital stock by one unit, it would have to hire 3 more worlkers to maintain its eurrent level of output.
D. the marginal product of labor is 3 times the marginal product of capital.

Answers

Answer: A. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constant).

Explanation:

The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution(MRTS) is calculated as follows:

= Marginal product of labor / Marginal product of capital

= 1 / 3

Marginal product of labor = 1

Marginal product of capital = 3

This means that if one unit of labor is used, it produces 1 unit of output.

If one unit of capital is used however, it produces 3 units of output.

If a firm therefore used one unit of capital and kept labor constant, it could produce 3 units out output.

Based on the following data, how would the cost function be stated if ‘X' is the number of machine hours? Electricity expense Machine hours June $495 410 July $500 400 August $750 900 September $610 500 Group of answer choices $525 + $0.35 X $300 + $0.50 X $500 + $0.50 X $470 + $0.35 X

Answers

Answer:

Part 1

The electricity cost, which varies in relation to machine hours is $0.50

Part 2

The Cost function will be :

$300 + $0.50 X

Explanation:

High-low method is used to separate the variable and fixed cost element of a mixed cost or semi variable expense.

Step 1 : Determine the variable cost

Variable Cost = ($750 - $500) ÷ (900 - 400)

                       = $0.50

Step 2 : Determine the fixed cost

Total Cost = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost

hence,

Fixed Cost = Total Cost - Variable Cost

using the high point to substitute in the formulae we get :

Fixed Cost = $750 - ($0.50 x 900)

                  = $300

thus,

Total Cost = $300 + $0.50 x

Productivity Question 3 options: is nearly the same across countries, and so provides no help explaining differences in the standard of living across countries. explains very little of the differences in the standard of living across countries. explains some, but not most of the differences in the standard of living across countries. explains most of the differences in the standard of living across countries.

Answers

Answer:

explains most of the differences in the standard of living across countries.

Explanation:

Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is a measure of the total market value of all finished goods and services made within a country during a specific period.

Simply stated, GDP is a measure of the total income of all individuals in an economy and the total expenses incurred on the economy's output of goods and services in a particular country.

Basically, the four (4) major expenditure categories of GDP are consumption (C), investment (I), government purchases (G), and net exports (N).

Productivity is a measure of how efficient is the manufacturing of finished goods and services in a country. Thus, it's a measure of total output with respect to input such as capital, labour, and other resources.

Generally, productivity is a ratio of output (product) to the resources (input) that is required to produce the product and as such determines the economic output of a particular country, as well as the standard of living of its population.

Hence, productivity explains most of the differences in the standard of living across countries based on the value of output generated with a unit of input.

If budgeted beginning inventory is $8,300, budgeted ending inventory is $9,400, and budgeted cost of goods sold is $10,260, budgeted purchases should be: Group of answer choices $9,160 $11,360 $1,960 $860 $1,100

Answers

Answer: $11,360

Explanation:

Budgeted cost of goods sold = Budgeted beginning inventory + Budgeted purchases - Budgeted ending inventory

10,260 = 8,300 + Budgeted purchases - 9,400

Budgeted purchases = 10,260 - 8,300 + 9,400

= $11,360

Required:
Calculate cost of goods sold for the year.

Answers

Answer:

Cost of goods sold = 948000

Explanation:

Inventory at the beginning of the year = $62000

Inventory at the end of the year = $52000

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchases during the year - ending inventory

Cost of goods sold = $62000 + 217000 + 137000 + 167000 + 417000 - $52000

Cost of goods sold = 948000

Answers

Answer: False

In the short-run, inflation and unemployment are inversely related; as one quantity increases, the other decreases. In the long-run, there is no trade-off. In the 1960's, economists believed that the short-run Phillips curve was stable.
