Use your own language to explain that short run supply curve by a price-taking firm is the positively-sloped portion of the short-run marginal cost curve.

Answers

Answer:

See the answer and explanation below

Explanation:

A price-taking firm is a firm in a perfectly competitive market where all firms are price takers. That is, no firm in a perfectly competitive can influence the price as only the market determines the price.

The short run supply curve for a price-taking firm refers to the short marginal cost (SMC) curve at and above the shutdown point.

Note: See the attached graph for the shut run supply curve. Also note that point E in the attached graph is the shutdown point.

The shutdown point is the point where the short run marginal cost (SMC) is equal to the average variable cost (AVC) (i.e. where MC = AVC = Shutdown point).

This indicates that the short-run supply curve for a price-taking firm is the part of the SMC curve that lies above AVC curve.

The part of the SMC curve that lies below the AVC or the shutdown point is not part of the short run supply curve of a price-taking firm, because the firm is not engaging in any production at that point.

Therefore, the short run supply curve of a price-taking firm is the increasing portion of the short run MC curve above the shutdown point.

This follows the law of supply which states that more quantity of the product of a firm will be supplied when there is a rise in the market price.

In summary, the short run supply curve of a price-taking firm is the positively-sloped portion of the short-run marginal cost curve

Potential GDP of an economy is $12 billion. Real (Actual) GDP is $20 Billion. Marginal propensity to consume is 0.75. What level of Government spending is required to achieve Full employment

Answers

Answer:

Government spending required  = $2 billion

Explanation:

The required amount of GDP to achieve the full employment GDP =

Potential GDP - Actual

that is 20 - 12 = $8 billion.

But note that a government spending of less than $8 billion would be required to achieve an increase of 8 billion in real GDP. This is so because of   expenditure multiplier effect.

The expenditure multiplier is the amount by which the aggregate output would increase with an increase in any of the expenditure components.

It is calculated as follows;

Multiplier = 1/(1-MPC)

For this question ,

Expenditure multiplier = 1/(1-0.75) = 4

This implies that $1 change in any of the aggregate expenditure would lead a $4 worth of change in GDP.

Government spending required  is determined as

Desired change in real GDP/expenditure multiplier

= $8 billion/4 = $2 billion

Government spending required  = $2 billion

Northwest Fur Co. started 2021 with $105,000 of merchandise inventory on hand. During 2021, $510,000 in merchandise was purchased on account with credit terms of 3/15, n/45. All discounts were taken. Purchases were all made f.o.b. shipping point. Northwest paid freight charges of $8,900. Merchandise with an invoice amount of $3,700 was returned for credit. Cost of goods sold for the year was $362,000. Northwest uses a perpetual inventory system. What is ending inventory assuming Northwest uses the gross method to record purchases

Answers

Answer:

The ending inventory by using the gross method is $243,011

Explanation:

Purchases = Net purchases + Freight inwards

Purchases = 491,111 + 8,900

Purchases = 500,011

When Net purchase = Gross Purchase - Purchase return - Discount

Net purchase = 510,000 - 3,700- 15,189

Net purchase = 491,111

Working

Discount = (Purchases - Purchase return) × Discount rate

Discount = (510,000 - 3,700) * 3%

Discount = 15,189

Ending inventory = Beginning inventory + Purchases− Cost of good sold

Ending inventory = (105,000 + 500,011) - 362,000

Ending inventory = $243,011

Thus, the ending inventory by using the gross method is $243,011.

NewTech purchases computer equipment for $154,000 to use in operating activities for the next four years. It estimates the equipment’s salvage value at $25,000.Required:Prepare a table showing depreciation and book value for each of the four years assuming double-declining-balance depreciation.

Answers

Answer:

Accumulated depreciation = $129,000

Net book value after years = Salvage value = $25,000

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the table showing depreciation and book value for each of the four years assuming double-declining-balance depreciation.

Double-declining-balance is a depreciation method in which an asset is depreciated at twice the rate of the straight line depreciation method.

For this question, the depreciation rate can be obtained as follows:

Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Number of years of operating activities = 1 / 4 = 0.25, or 25%

This can be done as follows:

Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = 25% * 2 = 50%

The 50% double-declining depreciation rate is therefore used in the attached excel file table.

Note that there the depreciation expenses in Year 4 is zero because the asset has already been fully depreciated in year 3 since there is a salvage value of $25,000 that must be maintained at the end of Year 4.

90 105 7.00
90 105 10.50

Answers

Answer:

The real exchange rates that would result from the two nominal exchange rates are:

For the first row in the table RER is 6.

For the second row in the table RER is 9.

Note: See the attached excel file for the table.

Explanation:

Note: The table in the question is merged together. It is therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached excel file for the sorted table.

The answer to the explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:

The real exchange rate (RER) between the the currencies of two counties can be described as the multiplication of the nominal exchange and the ratio of baskets of goods between these two countries.

RER can can therefore be calculated using the following formula:

RER = (e * P*) / P ................................. (1)

Where, from the question;

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan)

For the first row in the table:

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 7

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

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

RER = (7 * 90) / 105

RER = 630 / 105

RER = 6

For the second row in the table:

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 10.50

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

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

RER = (10.50 * 90) / 105

RER = 945 / 105

RER = 9

The real exchange rates that should lead from the two nominal exchange rates should be 6 and 9.

Calculation of the real exchange rate:

RER = (e * P*) / P ................................. (1)

Here,

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan)

So,

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 7

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

Now

RER = (7 * 90) / 105

RER = 630 / 105

RER = 6

Now

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 10.50

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

So,

RER = (10.50 * 90) / 105

RER = 945 / 105

RER = 9

Explanation:

Given the information above, the formula for Inventory loss is

Inventory loss = Opening inventory + Purchases - Cost of sales

Where,

Cost of sales = $432,000 × 100 ÷ 160

=$270,000

Since opening inventory = $153,000

Purchases = $175,500

Therefore,

Inventory loss = $153,000 + $175,500 - $270,000

= $58,500

E Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 44,000 units per month is as follows:

Per Unit
Direct materials $44.60
Direct labor $8.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.50
Fixed manufacturing overhead $18.10
Variable selling & administrative expense $2.60
Fixed selling & administrative expense $12.00

The normal selling price of the product is $94.10 per unit. An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,400 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $1.60 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.

Suppose there is ample idle capacity to produce the units required by the overseas customer and the special discounted price on the special order is $80.40 per unit. The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be:_______

Answers

Answer:

financial advantage for accepting special order = $59,520

Explanation:

relevant production costs for special order (2,400 units):

direct materials $44.60

direct labor $8.50

variable manufacturing overhead $1.50

variable selling & administrative expense $1

total costs per unit = $55.60

total revenue from special order = 2,400 x $80.40 = $192,960

relevant costs associated to special order = 2,400 x $55.60 = ($133,440)

financial advantage for accepting special order = $59,520

The unfavorable volume variance may be due to all of the following factors except:_______

a. failure to maintain an even flow of work
b. machine breakdowns
c. failure to obtain enough sales orders
d. unexpected increases in the cost of utilities

Answers

Answer:

d. unexpected increases in the cost of utilities

Explanation:

there are several volume variances:

direct materials volume variancedirect labor volume variancemanufacturing overhead volume variance sales volume variance

Utilities are part of manufacturing overhead, but volume variances using the standard rates, so an unexpected increase in the cost of utilities will not affect the overhead volume variance.

The unfavorable volume variance can not be due because of unexpected Increases in the cost of utilities

Unfavorable volume variance means that the amount of applied fixed manufacturing overhead costs is less than the budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead costs

Debra and Merina sell electronic equipment and supplies through their partnership. They wish to expand their computer lines and decide to admit Wayne to the partnership. Debra's capital is $200,000, Merina's capital is $160,000, and they share income in a ratio of 3:2, respectively.Required:Record Wayne's admission for each of the following independent situations:a. Wayne directly purchases half of Merina's investment in the partnership for $97,000.b. Wayne invests the amount needed to give him a one-third interest in the partnership's capital if no goodwill or bonus is recorded.

Answers

Answer:

a. Merina's captal is $160,000. Half would be $80,000.

Entry;

DR Merina, Capital ..................................................................$80,000

CR Wayne, Capital ....................................................................................$80,000

(To record purchase of half of Merina Capital)

b.

DR Cash......................................................................$180,000

CR Wayne, Capital.........................................................................$180,000

(To record Wayne investment)

Working

The current Capital amount is;

= 200,000 +160,000

= $360,000

If Wayne joins and adds to this such that he owns 1/3 then;

2/3x = 360,000

x = 360,000/2/3

x = $540,000

Wayne's share would be;

= 1/3 * 540,000

= $180,000

The journal entries that would take place will take effect as A- A debit in Merina's capital amount and Cash account as $17000 and a credit effect in Wayne's capital account. The amount of debit and credit will be $97000.

And for B- There will be Debit in Cash account effecting a credit in The Wayne's capital account. The amount effecting the debit and credit side will be $180,000.

The journal entries are added in the images attached to the answer. The entries would take place in the journal entries on the respective date of their occurrence.( Image attached below).

When Wayne is introduced as partner for one third share the calculation of the amount of his capital would be shown as considering the capital as x. The capital by existing partners is $360000. (Image below).

,[tex]\dfrac{2}{3}x\ = 360000[/tex]

[tex]x= \dfrac {360000}{\dfrac{2}{3}}[/tex]

Now the value of x will be calculated as

[tex]x= \dfrac{540000}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=180000[/tex]

Therefore Wayne's capital will be calculated as $180,000, so he will be required to bring in additional $180,000 capital in the firm for getting one third share in the profits and losses of the company.

Hence, the correct statements for A will be that Wayne pays $97000 which will be divided in Merina's capital and cash accounts in the proportion of $80000 and $17000 respectively.

Direct Labor Variances Glacier Bicycle Company manufactures commuter bicycles from recycled materials. The following data for October are available: Quantity of direct labor used 5,000 hrs. Actual rate for direct labor $22.75 per hr. Bicycles completed in October 800 bicycles Standard direct labor per bicycle 6.0 hrs. Standard rate for direct labor $24.00 per hr. a. Determine for October the direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total direct labor cost variance. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

Answers

Answer:

a) i. Direct labor rate variance = Quantity of direct labor used * (Actual rate for direct labor - Standard rate for direct labor)

= 5,000*(22.75-24)

= -6,250 (Favorable)

ii. Direct labor time variance =  Standard rate for direct labor * (Quantity of direct labor used - Bicycles completed in October * Standard direct labor per bicycle)

= 24 * (5000 - 800 * 6)

= 4,800 (Unfavorable)

iii. Total Direct labor cost variance =  (Quantity of direct labor used * Actual rate for direct labor) - (Bicycles completed in October * Standard direct labor per bicycle * Standard rate for direct labor)

= (5000 * 22.75) - (800 * 6 * 24)

= -1450 (Favorable)

Answer:

The total cost variance of labor will be "-1,450 (favorable)". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According the question,

Direct labor rate variance will be:

⇒  [tex]5000\times (22.75-24)[/tex]

⇒  [tex]5000\times (-1.25)[/tex]

⇒  [tex]-6,250 \ (favorable)[/tex]

Direct labor time variance will be:

⇒  [tex]24\times (5000-800\times 6)[/tex]

⇒  [tex]24\times 200[/tex]

⇒  [tex]4,800 \ (unfavorable)[/tex]

Now,

The Total Direct labor cost variance will be:

⇒  [tex](5000\times 22.75)-(800\times 6\times 24)[/tex]

⇒  [tex](113,750)-(115,200)[/tex]

Barette Consulting currently has no debt in its capital structure, has $500 million of total assets, and its basic earning power is 15%. The CFO is contemplating a recapitalization where it will issue debt at a cost of 10% and use the proceeds to buy back shares of the company's common stock, paying book value. If the company proceeds with the recapitalization, its operating income, total assets, and tax rate will remain unchanged. Which of the following is most likely to occur as a result of the recapitalization? a) The ROA would remain unchanged b) The basic earning power ratio would decline c) The basic earning power ratio would increase d) The ROE would increase e) The ROA would increase

Answers

Answer:

d) The ROE would increase

Explanation:

Since the company's operating income will remain unchanged, net income will decrease due to interest expense, but the total number of shares outstanding will decrease. This will result in a higher EPS (earnings per share), and a higher ROE (return on equity), but it would also make the company's risk increase and Re (cost of equity) increase.

What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $6,450 increase

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Contribution margin= $75

The marketing manager believes that a $7,800 increase in the monthly advertising budget would result in a 190 unit increase in monthly sales.

To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:

Effect on income= increase in contribution margin - increase in fixed costs

Effect on income= 190*75 - 7,800

Effect on income= $6,450 increase

You take out a car loan for 13,381 dollars. If your loan has an annual interest rate of 8.86 percent, and you will make monthly payments for 5 years, how much of your first payment will go towards principal (go towards paying down the outstanding loan balance)?

Answers

Answer:

Principal paid in the first payment =$2,656.52

Explanation:

Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.  

We will use the following relationships:

Interest paid = Interest rate × loan balance

Principal paid = Monthly installment - Interest paid

Monthly installment  = Loan amount/Annuity factor

Annuity factor = (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

r - annual interest rate

n- number of period = 12× 5 = 60

Monthly interest rate - 8.86/12 =0.738 %

Loan amount = 13,381

Annuity factor = (1 - (1.00738)^(-60) )/ 0.00738=48.336

Monthly interest payment = Loan amount/Annuity factor

                                         13,381/48.336=2,755.32

Interest due in the first month = interest rate × loan amount

                      =  0.738 %×  13,381 =98.796

Principal aid in the first year = Monthly installment - interest due 1st month

                      = 2,755.32 - 98.796 = 2,656.52

Principal paid in the first payment =$2,656.52
