Cost of goods sold Ending Inventory
Apr. 19 Sale $100,000 $60,000
Sept. 2 Sale $218,000 $40,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Date Description Units Unit Cost Total Balance
Jan. 1 Inventory 4,000 $40 $160,000
Apr. 19 Sale (2,500) (100,000) $60,000
June 30 Purchase 4,500 $44 198,000 258,000
Sept. 2 Sale (5,000) (218,000) 40,000
Nov. 15 Purchase 2,000 $46 92,000 132,000
Cost of goods sold: Ending Inventory
April 19: = 2,500 * $40 = $100,000 = 1,500 * $40 = $60,000
Sept 2: = 4,500 * $44 + 500 * $40 = 1,000 * $40 = $40,000
= $198,000 + $20,000
= $218,000
Justin builds fences for a living. Justin's out-of-pocket expenses (for wood, paint, etc.) plus the value that he places on his own time amount to his a. profit. b. producer surplus. c. cost of building fences.
Answer:
c. Cost of building fences.
Explanation:
The cost of production encompasses the money spend as well as the time to produce a commodity. For example, if a person spends $15 to make a juice cup and invest 1 hour to make so the total cost of production is $15 and the time invested by the producer. Thus, option "c" is correct.

A natural monopoly arises whenA. a single firm aggressively forces other competitors to exit and industry.B. a single firm has a monopoly over natural resources.C. two firms merge into a single firm in order to capture more of the market.D. a single firm can produce more cheaply than multiple firms due to a downward-sloping average total cost curve.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
A monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry. there are usually high barriers to entry of firms. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.
An example of a monopoly is a utility company
A natural monopoly occurs due to the high start-up costs or a large economies of scale.
Natural monopolies are usually the only company providing a service in a particular region
Characteristics of natural monopolies
they have a large fixed cost The firms have a low marginal costThey occur naturally through the free market. It does not occur by government regulation or any other forceMannix Corporation stock currently sells for $80 per share. The market requires a return of 10 percent on the firm's stock. If the company maintains a constant 6 percent growth rate in dividends, what was the most recent dividend per share paid on the stock
Answer: $3.02
Explanation:
The Gordon growth method can help solve this:
Formula is:
Price of stock = (Most recent dividend * (1 + growth rate)) / (required return - growth rate)
80 = ( D * ( 1 + 6%)) / (10% - 6%)
80 = 1.06D / 4%
1.06D = 80 * 4%
D = 3.2 / 1.06
D = $3.02

Jammer Company uses a weighted average perpetual inventory system and reports the following:
August 2 Purchase 24 units at $18.50 per unit. August 18 Purchase 26 units at $20.00 per unit. August 29 Sale 48 units. August 31 Purchase 29 units at $21.50 per unit.
What is the per-unit value of ending inventory on August 31? (Round your per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $21.36
Explanation:
Weighted average inventory system works by taking the average of the inventory prices on the different days.
Price on August 29 which is date of sale:
= {(Units purchased on August 2 * Unit cost on August 2) + ( Units purchased on August 18 * Unit cost on August 18)] / (Units purchased on August 2 + Units purchased on August 18)
= [ ( 24 * 18.50) + (26 * 20) ] / (24 + 26)
= $19.28 per unit
48 units were sold so the number of units left are:
= 24 + 26 - 48
= 2 units
Price on August 31
= [ (Units remaining on August 29 * Unit cost on August 29) + ( Units purchased on August 31 * Unit cost on August 31)] / (Units remaining on August 29 + Units purchased on August 31)
= [ (2 * 19.28) + (29 * 21.50) ] / ( 2 + 29)
= $21.36
If a company sells its smart phones for $400 and the phones have a COGS of $250, how many additional phones would the company have to sell if it decided to spend an extra $150,000 on advertising to promote the phones
Answer:
Units to be sold= 1,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $400
COGS= $250
Increase in costs= $150,000
To calculate the number of units to be sold to cover the incremental costs, we need to use the following formula:
Units to be sold= increase in costs/ contribution margin per unit
Units to be sold= 150,000 / (400 - 250)
Units to be sold= 1,000

Aaron and Michele, equal shareholders in Cavalier Corporation, receive $25,000 each in distributions on December 31 of the current year. During the current year, Cavalier sold an appreciated asset for $60,000 (basis of $15,000). Payment for the sale of the asset will be made as follows: 50% next year and 50% in the following year with interest payable at a rate of 6 percent. Before considering the effect of the asset sale, Cavalier's current-year E & P is $40,000 and it has no accumulated E & P.
Required:
How much of Aaron’s distribution will be taxed as a dividend?
Answer:
Cavalier Corporation
Aaron’s distribution that will be taxed as a dividend is:
= $25,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Amount received in distributions by Aaron and Michele each = $25,000
Proceeds from the sale of an appreciated asset = $60,000
Proceeds to be received 50% in the next year = $30,000
Proceeds to be received 50% in the second year = $30,000
Basis of asset = $15,000
Capital gains = $45,000 ($60,000 - $15,000)
Cavalier's current-year E & P = $40,000
Accumulated E & P = $0
Bottum Corporation, a manufacturing Corporation, has provided data concerning its operations for May.

Manufacturing overhead cost incurred during the month was $113,500, of which $2,500 consisted of raw materials classified as indirect materials. The direct materials cost for May was:
Answer:
the direct material cost is $47,000
Explanation:
The computation of the direct material cost is shown below:
= Opening balance + purchase made - indirect material - closing balance
= $22,500 + $68,000 - $2,500 - $41,000
= $47,000
hence, the direct material cost is $47,000

Plan B: Cost $200,000, Life 40 Years Structure and 20 years equipment, Equipment replacement at the end of 20 years $75,000, Annual Operation and Repairs 52,000/year
a. Plan A $709,779.00
b. Plan A $740,000
c. Plan B $710,165.50
d. Plan B $326,000
Answer:
plan a
Explanation:
present worth of plan A= 700000+1000(p/a,10%,40)
= 700000+1000*9.779
= 700000+9779
= 709779 dollars
present worth of plan b = 200000+75000(p/f,10%,20)+52000/year(p/a,10%,40)
= 200000+75000*0.1486+52000*9.779
= 719653 dollars.
we compare the pw of both a and b, from the solutions above, the present worth of plan a is smaller than that of plan b, so the best option is plan a, $709,779.00

The price elasticity of demand for a good is likely to be elastic __________.
A. the budget share spent on the good.
B. the number of close substitutes for the good.
C. the available time during which consumers can adjust.
D. all of the above.
Answer:
The price elasticity of demand for a good is likely to be elastic :
A. the greater the proportion of budget share spent on the good.
B. the greater the number of close substitutes for the good.
C. the longer the available time during which consumers can adjust.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.
Price is more elastic in the long run than in the short run because consumers have more time to search for suitable alternatives
The more close substitutes a good has, the more elastic its demand. This is because if price is increased, consumers can easily shift to the consumption of an alternative product
the greater the proportion of budget share spent on the good, the more elastic the demand for the good
For Sanborn Co., sales is $1,000,000, fixed expenses are $300,000, and the contribution margin per unit is $60. What is the break-even point? g
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 5,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales= $1,000,000
Fixed expenses= $300,000
Contribution margin per unit= $60
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 300,000 / 60
Break-even point in units= 5,000
What IHRM activities would be pertinent to the sending, by Médecins Sans Frontieres, of a medical team into a country such as Bangladesh?
Answer:
It is the responsibility of the HR department to enable employees to perform a job with skill, safety and ideal conditions.
Therefore, in a Médecins Sans Frontières program with the sending of a medical team to a country like Bangladesh, it would be the competence of the responsible company's HR, to prepare its team to be received in the place with good housing, food and security conditions. Enabling and training the medical team to deal with the work and demands of a country like Bangladesh, which, being a country with a lot of social inequality and conditions of poverty, has particular challenges in relation to health, which the doctors sent should be well prepared to take on that job and the risks involved.
A firm just paid its annual dividend of $1.80 and expects to increase that dividend each year. The discount rate is 11 percent. Which one of these correctly identifies an error when computing the current value of this firm's stock?
a. Po = $1.80/(0.11 -0.03): The growth rate exceeds its limitation.
b. Po = ($1.80 x 1.12(0.11 -0.03); The growth rate in the denominator should be 12 percent to match the growth rate in the numerator.
c. Po = ($1.80 x (1 +.09)[0.11 -.09); The growth rate exceeds it limitation for using this formula
d. Po = $1.80/(0.11 -0.025); The value of Dt, is incorrect as $1.80 equals Do.
Answer:
d. Po = $1.80/(0.11 -0.025); The value of D1, is incorrect as $1.80 equals Do.
Explanation:
Calculation to correctly identifies which one of these is an error when computing the current value of this firm's stock
P0 = $1.80/(0.11 - 0.025)
P0 = $1.80/0.085
P0=$9.76
Therefore Based on the information given Po = $1.80/(0.11 -0.025); because The value of D1, is INCORRECT as $1.80 equals Do.
a. By how much would government spending have to rise to shift the aggregate demand curve rightward by $25 billion
Answer: $2.5 billion
Explanation:
You need to first calculate the multiplier.
The multiplier is the amount that shows the effect of an increase in government spending on the aggregate demand of a country.
It is calculated as:
= 1 / ( 1 - MPC)
= 1 / ( 1 - 0.9)
= 10
Increase in aggregate demand = Government spending * multiplier
25 billion = G * 10
G = 25 billion / 10
= $2.5 billion
Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) attempts to keep the most highly demanded resource busy on critical chain activities, but not overloaded.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Critical-Chain
This was introduced or originated by Eli Goldratt in 1997. Its aim is to challenges conventional project management approaches and absolute dependence on TOC principles. The idea of what to change or eliminated is the largely rooted behaviors that is common with the traditional project management practices. It is very multitasking anf it is the longest string of reliance that occur on the project.
Critical- Chain Approach
This approach simply covers project network as it ca be limited by both resource and technical reliance/dependencies. each type of limitations can create task reliance.
The Summary of Critical Chain Approach
1.) use Aggressive but Possible Times (ABPT) for task durations

In 2019, Teller Company sold 3,000 units at $600 each. Variable expenses were $420 per unit, and fixed expenses were $270,000. The same selling price, variable expenses, and fixed expenses are expected for 2020. What is Teller’s break-even point in units for 2020? g
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 1,500
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $600
Unitary variable cost= $420
Fixed cost= $270,000
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 270,000 / (600 - 420)
Break-even point in units= 1,500

Click here to view Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables. Required: What lump-sum amount must Steve invest now to have the $30,000 at the end of eight years if he can invest money at:
Answer:
The correct answer is:
(1) $15,054
(2) $12,990
Explanation:
The required table is not given in the question. Please find below the attachment of the table.
Given:
Future value,
= $30,000
If discounting rate is 9%, the present value will be:
= [tex]Future \ value\times PV \ factor(9 \ percent, 8 \ years)[/tex]
= [tex]30000\times (\frac{1}{1.09} )^8[/tex]
= [tex]30000\times 0.5018[/tex]
= [tex]15,054[/tex] ($)
If discounting rate is 11%, the present value will be:
= [tex]Future \ value\times PV \ factor(11 \ percent, 8 \ years)[/tex]
= [tex]30000\times (\frac{1}{1.11} )^6[/tex]
= [tex]30000\times 0.433[/tex]
= [tex]12,990[/tex] ($)

uppose you invest, every month, in an annuity that pays 3% interest, compounded monthly. After 25 years, you have $550,000. How much money do you earn from interest
Answer: $180,046
Explanation:
First find the annuity that was invested monthly that yielded $550,000.
Interest rate = 3%/12 months = 0.25%
Period = 25 * 12 = 300 months
Future value of annuity = Annuity * ( ( 1 + rate) ^ no. of periods - 1) / rate
550,000 = Annuity * ( ( 1 + 0.25%)³⁰⁰ - 1 ) / 0.25%
550,000 = Annuity * 446
Annuity = 550,000 / 446
Annuity = $1,233.18
Without compounding, investing $1,233.18 per month would have yielded:
= 1,233.18 * 300 months
= $369,954
Money earned from interest is:
= 550,000 - 369,954
= $180,046

The quantity demanded for money is higher in Japan than in the United States because: telecommunications and information technology is more advanced in the United States than in Japan. Japanese interest rates are higher than those in the United States. Japanese interest rates are lower than those in the United States. Japanese consumers use credit cards more than people in the United States.
Answer:
Japanese interest rates are lower than those in the United States.
Explanation:
The demand for money (the decision to hold money) is inversely related to interest rate. if interest rate is high, individuals would prefer to hold bonds and the demand for money would fall. if interest rate is low, individuals would prefer to hold money.
the opportunity cost of holding money is what would have been earned if money was invested. if interest rate is low, individuals would prefer to hold more money because the amount that would be earned if money was invested in bonds would be low, so the opportunity cost of holding money would be low
If the demand for money is higher in Japan than in the United States, it is because interest rates are lower in Japan

You are given the following data Stock A Expected return 8.00% Standard deviation 23.00% Stock B Expected return 7.50% Standard deviation 33.00% The correlation of Stock A and Stock B is 0.05. What is the variance of risky portfolio P with 43% in Stock A and the rest in Stock B
Answer:
Variance of risky portfolio P = 4.61%
Explanation:
WA = Weight of stock A = 43%, or 0.43
WB = Weight of stock B = 1 - 0.43 = 0.57
SA = Standard deviation of stock A = 23%, or 0.23
SB = Standard deviation of stock B = 33%, or 0.33
Cab = Correlation of Stock A and Stock B = 0.05
Therefore, we have:
Variance of risky portfolio P = (WA^2 * SA^2) + (WB^2 * SB^2) + (WA * SA * WB * SB * Cab) = (0.43^2 * 0.23^2) + (0.57^2 * 0.33^2) + (0.43 * 0.23 * 0.57 * 0.33 * 0.05) = 0.0461, or 4.61%
