Tan Corporation of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 9,600,000 $ 26,000,000 Net operating income $ 672,000 $ 2,340,000 Average operating assets $ 3,200,000 $ 13,000,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 16%. Compute the residual income for each division.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
a. The return on investment is
= Margin turnover
= Net operating income ÷ sales × sales ÷ average operating assets
For Osaka
= $672,000 ÷ $9,600,000 × $9,600,000 ÷ $3,200,000
= 21%
For Yokohama
= $2,340,000 ÷ $2,600,000 × $2,600,000 ÷ $13,000,000
= 18%
2. The residual income is
= Net operating income - (average operating assets × rate of return)
For Osaka
= $672,000 - ($3,200,000 × 16%)
= $160,000
For yokohama
= $2,340,000 - ($13,000,000 × 16%)
= $260,000
An example of a good that is excludable is: _________
a) an outdoor sculpture visible from the street.
b) a television set.
c) broadcast television.
d) an aerial fireworks display.
Answer:
b) a television set
Explanation:
Excludable goods can be regarded as a s private goods, unlike non-excludable goods which are public goods. Instance of this is that
everyone can utilize public road, but going to cinema cannot be for everyone the way they please, this is because, ticket need to be bought to get access, as ticket is bought, this can excludes somebody else since there is because limited seat. It should be noted that good can be regarded as a excludable, in situation whereby supplier of that good successfully prevent individual that do not pay from consuming it. An example of a good that is excludable is television set
suppose ta hurricane hits alabama causing widespread damage to houses and businesses the governor of alabama places pirce cielings on all building materials to keep the prices reasonable
Answer:
Shortages of building materials and a slower recovery from the storm
Explanation:
From the question we are informed about an instance, whereby a hurricane hits Alabama, causing widespread damage to houses and businesses. The governor of Alabama places price ceilings on all building materials to keep the prices reasonable. In this case,what most likely result is Shortages of building materials and a slower recovery from the storm.
From law of demand, which expressed that provided other factors remain equal, when price of a good goes higher, then there would be less demand of that good from
people and vice versa. higher price brings lower the quantity demanded, and lower price brings higher the quantity demanded, therefore in the case, above as the price of ceilings on all building materials so that price becomes reasonable people demand more and it leads to Shortages of building materials
A bond with a face value of $1,000 has 10 years until maturity, carries a coupon rate of 7.3%, and sells for $1,170. Interest is paid annually.a. If the bond has a yield to maturity of 10.7% 1 year from now, what will its price be at that time? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your anser to nearest whole number.)b. What will be the annual rate of return on the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)c. Now assume that interest is paid semiannually. What will be the annual rate of return on the bond?Slightly greater than your part b answerSlightly less than your part b answerd. If the inflation rate during the year is 3%, what is the annual real rate of return on the bond? (Assume annual interest payments.) (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Answer:
a. Price 1 year later = $810
b. Annual rate of return on the bond = -24.53%
c. Since -24.79% is lower than -24.53% obtained part b, this implies that annual rate of return is slightly less than our part b answer.
d. Annual real rate of return on the bond = -26.73%
Explanation:
a. If the bond has a yield to maturity of 10.7% 1 year from now, what will its price be at that time? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to nearest whole number.)
This can be calculated as follows:
Price 1 year later = Coupon rate * Par value / Yield to maturity * (1 - 1 / (100% + Yield to maturity)^Years to maturity) + Par value / (100% + Yield to maturity)^Years to maturity = 7.3% * 1000 / 10.7% * (1 - 1 / (100% + 10.7%)^9) + 1000 / (100% + 10.7%)^9 = $810
b. What will be the annual rate of return on the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)
This can be calculated as follows:
Annual rate of return on the bond = (Price 1 year later + Coupon rate * Par value) / Price now - 1 = (810 + 7.3% * 1000) / 1170 - 1 = -24.53%
c. Now assume that interest is paid semiannually. What will be the annual rate of return on the bond?Slightly greater than your part b answer Slightly less than your part b answer
This can be determined as follows:
Price 1 year later = (Coupon rate / 2) * Par value / (Yield to maturity / 2) * (1 - 1 / (100% + (Yield to maturity / 2))^(Years to maturity * 2)) + Par value / (100% + (Yield to maturity / 2))^(Years to maturity * 2) = (7.3% / 2) * 1000 / (10.7% / 2) * (1 - 1 / (100% + (10.7% / 2))^(9 * 2)) + 1000 / (100% + (10.7% / 2))^(9 * 2) = $807
Annual rate of return on the bond = (Price 1 year later + Coupon rate * Par value) / Price now - 1 = (807 + (7.3% / 2) * 1000) / 1170 - 1 = -24.79%
Since -24.79% is lower than -24.53% obtained part b, this implies that annual rate of return is slightly less than our part b answer.
d. If the inflation rate during the year is 3%, what is the annual real rate of return on the bond? (Assume annual interest payments.) (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)
This can be calculated as follows:
Annual real rate of return on the bond = (1 + nominal return) / (1 + inflation)-1 = (1 - 24.53%) / (1 +3 %) - 1 = -26.73%

Year Nominal GDP Real GDP GDP Deflator (Dollars) (Base year 2016, dollars) 2016 2017 2018 From 2017 to 2018, nominal GDP , and real GDP. The inflation rate in 2018 was.
Why is real GDP a more accurate measure of an economy's production than nominal GDP?
Answer:
Explanation:
The Real GDP is defined as the Nominal GDP minus the inflation effect.
Real GDP provides a more accurate picture of economic growth than nominal GDP because it uses constant prices, making comparisons between years more meaningful by allowing for comparisons of the actual volume of goods and services without considering inflation.
Let's say you bought apples at 5dollars per pound in 2015. Imagining a country of 1000 people and considering everyone bought a pound apples and only apples in that year, the GDP comes out to be 1000*5 = 5000 dollars.
Now let's say inflation rate is 10 percent in 2016 which will increase the price to 5.5 dollars per pound. Also, in one year, 10 more people were added to the country (No of births - No of deaths = New people in that year), this brings out total population to around 1010.
Also, let's say that the sale of apples remained the same, so the GDP of 2016 comes out to be 1000*5.5 = 5500 dollars.
That's a whooping 10% increase in GDP, right?
But here the catch.
The GDP increased not because the demand increased, but because the price of the good increased.
If we see at previous year's price (Not considering the inflation, also called Real GDP), the GDP is same which is 5000 dollars.
So, in reality, there isn't any increase in GDP.
Cho e hỏi các vấn đề của chuỗi cung ứng thực phẩm trong kinh doanh ẩm thực và cách khắc phục ạ
Mong mọi người giúp đỡ e ạ
Answer: Dưới nhu cầu thưởng thức các loại thực phẩm đa dạng, tươi ngon vào bất kỳ thời điểm nào trong năm, chuỗi cung ứng thực phẩm đã phải mở rộng hơn nhiều về mặt địa lý và buộc phải thông qua nhiều nhà cung cấp hơn. Điều này đã làm cho nghiệp vụ quản lý chuỗi cung ứng ngành thực phẩm trở nên cồng kềnh và phức tạp hơn bao giờ hết. Các nhà sản xuất, nhà phân phối hay các nhà cung cấp dịch vụ logistics theo đó cũng phải chịu những áp lực không nhỏ để đưa các sản phẩm thực phẩm ra thị trường một cách nhanh chóng, an toàn và trong điều kiện tốt nhất có thể. Một chuỗi cung ứng thực phẩm điển hình bao gồm sáu giai đoạn:
1. Tìm nguồn cung cấp nguyên liệu thô
2. Sản xuất
3. Chế biến và đóng gói
4. Lưu trữ
5. Phân phối bán buôn
6.Phân phối bán lẻ
Explanation:
1. Bên cạnh đó mọi vấn đề liên quan đến giá trị sản xuất đều gặp những khó khăn nhất định, một trong những vấn đề mà mọi doanh nghiệp hay cá nhân tham gia vào chuỗi cung ứng thực phẩm đều phải lo ngại về vấn đề ( Tìm nguồn cung cấp nguyên liệu thô). Vấn đề truy xuất và đảm bảo nguồn thực phẩm sạch là vấn đề cần cân nhắc đầu tiên, đi đôi đó là phải đảm bảo phù hợp với mô hình kinh doanh của doanh nghiệp, phù hợp với điều kiện kinh tế.
May mắn thay chúng ta đang sống ở thời đại 4.0 việc truy xuất nguồn gốc nguyên liệu đã không còn nhiều thách thách bởi việc áp dụng công nghệ vào việc truy xuất nguyên liệu rất dễ dàng ví dụ thông qua mã code, mã QR... bằng vài một thao tác đơn giản cũng có thể truy xuất nguồn gốc nguyên liệu nhanh, hiệu quả, tiết kiết chi phí đi lại xác minh. Vấn đề thứ hai là đảm bảo nguồn nguyên liệu thô được xử lý an toàn đã và đang ngày càng không còn là thách thức. Bởi việc ứng dụng công nghệ vào xử lý nguyên liệu thô vừa nhanh chóng, chính xác hiệu quả, ví dụ ngay từ khâu thu hoạch nguyên liệu thô các may móc đã hỗ trợ giúp đảm bảo nguồn nguyên liệu đầu vào đều và chính xác. Các khâu gieo trồng hay xử lý cũng được giúp ngắn và khoa học nhờ có ứng dụng công nghệ, khoa học. Nhưng đi bên cạnh là chi phí cao để đảm bảo chất lượng.
Bên cạnh đó việc xây dựng một mạng lưới về chuỗi cung ứng thực phẩm trong kinh doanh là một việc vô cùng quan trọng, quyết định sự phát triển của cả doanh nghiệp. Mặc dù là một loại công nghệ vẫn chưa được sử dụng rộng rãi trong ngành công nghiệp thực phẩm, nhưng blockchain được nhiều lãnh đạo coi là một công nghệ đầy hứa hẹn cho phép truy xuất nguồn gốc trong chuỗi cung ứng thực phẩm.
Công nghệ blockchain là một nền tảng số chung, nơi người dùng có thể lưu trữ và chia sẻ thông tin qua một mạng lưới tổng. Hệ thống này cho phép người dùng xem tất cả các giao dịch cùng một thời điểm trong thời gian thực. Một trong những lợi thế chính của blockchain là một khi thông tin được thêm vào hệ thống, thông tin đó sẽ được phân phối nội bộ trong mạng lưới và được lưu trữ cố định trong đó vĩnh viễn. Thông tin do vậy sẽ không thể bị tấn công, thao túng hoặc bị hư hại bởi bất kỳ cách nào.
2. Tiếp đó là thách thức chi phí vận hành chuỗi cung ứng tăng cao
Điều hành một chuỗi cung ứng thực phẩm sẽ tiêu tốn nhiều loại chi phí, một số chi phí quan trọng bao gồm: Chi phí điện và nhiên liệu, Chi phí logistics, vận chuyển hàng hóa , Chi phí nhân công , Chi phí đầu tư vào công nghệ mới
Những chi phí này rất đáng kể, do vậy, việc theo dõi chi phí hoạt động thường xuyên là một thách thức cho các doanh nghiệp ngành thực phẩm.
Cho nên giải pháp hữu hiệu nhất đó là Bước đầu tiên để kiểm soát chi phí là phải hiểu rõ các loại chi phí hiện có trong hoạt động doanh nghiệp. Trong các chuỗi cung ứng đơn giản, điều này có thể được thực hiện bằng các công cụ bảng tính. Nhưng ở nếu chuỗi cung ứng ngày càng trở nên phức tạp, doanh nghiệp sẽ cần một giải pháp công nghệ. Doanh nghiệp nên nâng cấp công nghệ của mình, những công việc như gửi tệp bảng tính qua email hay gọi điện báo tin cần được loại bỏ.
Một lưu ý khác là nếu các lãnh đạo quá quan tâm đến việc tiết kiệm chi phí thì tính hiệu quả và sự phát triển lâu dài của doanh nghiệp có thể bị kìm hãm. Một giải pháp công nghệ “đắt tiền”, ví dụ đó là đẩy mạnh mảng truyền trông marketing sản phảm, xâm nhập thị trường khôn ngoan bằng công nghệ mới, mặt hàng mới tác dụng mới, có thể mang lại lợi tức đầu tư đáng kể và tiết kiệm rất nhiều loại chi phí về lâu dài. Từ đó, doanh nghiệp vận hành hiệu quả và trở nên hấp dẫn hơn trong mắt các khách hàng.
Trên đây là những vấn đề cơ bản mà mình nghĩ sẽ giúp ích cho bạn từ kinh nghiệp của bản thân cũng như những kinh nghiệm mà mình học hỏi được. Mong rằng sẽ giúp ích cho bạn. Mình chỉ muốn khuyên là hãy trở thành nhà đầu tư, kinh doanh khôn ngoan, sáng tạo.
Mr. Hopper expects to retire in 30 years, and he wishes to accumulate $1,000,000 in his retirement fund by that time. If the interest rate is 12% per year, how much should Mr. Hopper put into his retirement fund at the end of each year in order to achieve this goal
Answer:
Annual deposit = $4100
Explanation:
Annual deposit = $4100
Number of years for retirement = 30 years
Future value of money = $1000000
Interest rate = 12%
Now use the below formula to find the annuity amount.
Annual deposit = Future value (A/F, r, n)
Annual deposit = 1000000 (A/F, 12%, 30)
Annual deposit = 1000000(0.0041)
Annual deposit = $4100
The amount Mr Hopper should put in his retirement fund each year is $4143.66.
In order to determine the amount of money Mr. Hopper should deposit each year, this formula would be used:
Yearly payment = future value / annuity factor
Annuity factor = {[(1+r)^n] - 1} / r
Where:
R = interest rate
N = number of years
Annuity factor = [(1.12)^30 - 1] / 0.12 = 241.332684
Yearly payment = $1,000,000 / 241.332684 = $4143.66

Categorize each scenario as describing a movement along a demand curve or a shift of the demand curve.
a. College students rush and buy discount furniture to take advantage of a one-day sale
b. Students eat out more often as the federal government increase how much grant money it provides
c. College students reduce how detergent they for each of laundry response to higher detergent prices.
d. College students purchase many more energy drinks during finals week than during the rest of the semester.
Answer:
a, a movement along a demand curve
b. shift of the demand curve.
c. a movement along a demand curve
d. shift of the demand curve.
Explanation:
Only a change in the price of a good leads to a movement along the demand curve of that good. Also, only a change in the price of the good would lead to an increase or decrease in the quantity demanded of that good.
Other factors other than the change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the demand curve. Some of those factors include :
1. a change in consumers' expectation
2. a change in the taste of consumers
3. a change in income
a. A discount would reduce the price of furniture, as a result the quantity demanded would increase. There would be a movement down along the demand curve.
b. As a result of the increase in grant, the income of students increase. this would lead to an increase in demand. the demand curve would shift outward
c. As a result of higher prices, the quantity demanded of detergents would reduce. This would lead to a movement up along the demand curve for detergents
d. An increase in demand for energy drinks is as a result of a change in taste. this would lead to an outward shift of the demand curve
Manufacturing overhead was estimated to be $400,000 for the year along with 20,000 direct labon hours. Actual manufacturing overhead was $415,000, actual labor hours were 21,000. To dispose of the balance in the manufacturing overhead account, which of the following would be correct?
a. Cost of Goods sold would be credited for $5,000.
b. Cost of Goods Sold would be debited for $5,000.
c. Cost of Goods Sold would be credited for $15,000.
d. Cost of Goods Sold would be debited for $15,000.
Answer:
If overhead was overapplied, then the COGS should be debited overhead.
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 400,000 / 20,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $20 per DLH
Now, we allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 20*21,000
Allocated MOH= $420,000
Finally, the over/under allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 415,000 - 420,000
Overapplied overhead= $5,000
If overhead was overapplied, then the COGS should be debited overhead.

A company enters a futures contract to sell 50,000 units of a commodity for 70 cents per unit. The initial margin is $4,000 and the maintenance margin is $3,000. What change in the futures price (per unit) would lead to a margin call?
Answer:
72 cents
Explanation:
There is going to be a margin call when greater than 1000 dollars has been lost from the margin. Then the balance in the account is going to be smaller than that of the maintenance margin. so 1 cent increase in the price would bring about a lossof
0.01 * 50000
= $500
if the increase in the future price is about 2 cents then there would be a margin call.
70+2 = 72cents, this is when there would be a margin call

Your grandparents put $10,200 into an account so that you would have spending money in college. You put the money into an account that will earn an APR of 4.19 percent compounded monthly. If you expect that you will be in college for 4 years, how much can you withdraw each month?
Answer:
Monthly withdrawal = $ 231.17 per month
Explanation:
Below is the calculation:
Deposit amount in the bank = $10200
Interest rate earned by the deposit = 4.19%
Monthly interest rate = 4.19% / 12 = 0.34917%
Number of periods = 4 years x 12 = 48
Amount in the account = Monthly withdrawal x (P/A, 0.34917%, 48)
10200 = Monthly withdrawal x 44.12246
Monthly withdrawal = 10200/44.12246
Monthly withdrawal = $ 231.17 per month

Please EXPLAIN answer for a thumps-up. I'm tried of wrong answers, please don't answer it unless you are 100% sure.
Answer:
A. The correct option is b. $46,067.
B. The correct option is d. $46,620.
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
A. Assuming that Rich does not maintain perpetual inventory records, what should be the inventory at January 31, using the weighted-average inventory method, rounded to the nearest dollar?
Note: See part A of the attached excel file for the calculation of the of units and cost of goods available for sale.
Since Rich does not maintain perpetual inventory records, this implies that this is a periodic inventory system. And update to inventory in a periodic inventory system are made on a regular basis, such as monthly, quarterly, etc.
From the part A attached excel file, we have:
Units of goods available for sale = 23,100
Cost of goods available for sales = $236,481
Weighted-average cost per unit = Cost of goods available for sales / Units of goods available for sale = $236,481 / 23,100 = $10.2372727272727
Inventory at January 31 = Units of inventory balance at January 31 * Weighted-average cost per unit = 4,500 * $10.2372727272727 = $46,068
From the options the closest one is b. $46,067. Therefore, the inventory at January 31 is $46,067 and the correct option is b. $46,067.
B. Assuming that Rich maintains perpetual inventory records, what should be the inventory at January 31, using the moving-average inventory method, rounded to the nearest dollar?
Note: See part B of the attached excel file for the calculation of the inventory at January 31 (in bold red color).
Under Perpetual Inventory system, the inventory is updated whenever a purchase or sale is made. It's a procedure that happens in real time.
In the Part B of the attached excel file, the following rates in light red color are made as follows:
Rate on January 6 = ($87,930 + $61,800) / 15,000 = $9.98 per unit
Rate on January 26 = ($74,865 + 86,751) / 15,600 = $10.36 per unit
From the part B attached excel file, we have:
Inventory at January 31 = $46,620.
Therefore, the correct option is d. $46,620.

Answer: Demand analysis is the process of understanding the customer demand for a product or service in a target market. Companies use demand analysis techniques to determine if they can successfully enter a market and generate expected profits to expand their business operations. It also gives a better understanding of the high-demand markets for the company’s offerings, using which businesses can determine the viability of investing in each of these markets. The importance of demand analysis in the business decision is that it helps firms design their pricing policy. The Firm can choose either to lower or raise a product’s price by observing the trend of consumer demand for that product. Producers can’t fix the price for their products without first understanding the market demand for them. These are reasons why I think demand analysis is essential for businesses

Total assets were $78,000 and total liabilities were $42,000 at the beginning of the year. Net income for the year was $15,500, and dividends of $5,000 were declared and paid during the year.
Required:
Calculate total stockholders' equity at the end of the year.
Answer:
$46,500
Explanation:
Accounting equation is stated as :
Assets = Equity + Liabilities
therefore,
Equity = Assets - Liabilities
Equity at Beginning of the Period :
Equity = Assets - Liabilities
= $78,000 - $42,000
= $36,000
Equity at end of the Period
Closing Equity Balance = Opening Balance + Net Income - Dividends
= $36,000 + $15,500 - $5,000
= $46,500
Mickley Company’s plantwide predetermined overhead rate is $20.00 per direct labor-hour and its direct labor wage rate is $15.00 per hour. The following information pertains to Job A-500: Direct materials $ 280 Direct labor $ 150 Required: 1. What is the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job A-500? 2. If Job A-500 consists of 70 units, what is the unit product cost for this job? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
1.
Total hours for job A - 500
= Direct labor ÷direct labor wage rate
= $150 ÷ $15
= 10
Total over head cost = overhead cost per labor hours × no. of labor hours
= $20 × 10
= $200
total manufacturing cost = Direct materials cost + Direct labor cost + Total over head cost
= $280 + $150 + $200
= $630
2.
Cost assigned to each unit
= total manufacturing cost ÷ number of units
= $630 ÷ 70
= $9
The information below applies to a competitive firm that sells its output for $40 per unit.
• When the firm produces and sells 150 units of output, its average total cost is $24.50.
• When the firm produces and sells 151 units of output, its average total cost is $24.55.
How does the firm's marginal revenue (MR) compare to its marginal cost (MC) when it increases its output from 150 units to 151 units?
a. MR exceeds MC by $7.95.
b. MR exceeds MC by $11.05.
c. MC exceeds MR by $11.05.
d. MC exceeds MR by $13.50.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Marginal cost is the change in total cost when output is increased by 1 unit
total cost = average cost x quantity
Marginal cost = (151 x 24.55) - (150 x 24.50) = 32.05

Which of the following non-GAAP disclosures is LEAST LIKELY to create variance between GAAP and non-GAAP operating income:
a. Goodwill impairment
b. Inventory write down
c. Currency loss from closing of a foreign subsidiary
d. Gain on sale of an asset
Answer: c. Currency loss from closing of a foreign subsidiary.
Explanation:
GAAP refers to the industry standard and it gives a clear view of the operations of a business from a financial point of view. On the other hand, the non-GAAP disclosure deviates from the industry standard and in such case, adjustments are made to show company's operations.
The non-GAAP disclosures which is least likely to create variance between GAAP and non-GAAP operating income is the currency loss from closing of a foreign subsidiary.
Mainway Toy Company currently has 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Its management believes that its current stock price of $95 per share is too high. The company is planning to conduct stock splits in the ratio of 2 for 1 as described in the animation. If Mainway Toy Company declares a 2-for-1 stock split, the price of the company's stock after the split, assuming that the total value of the firm's stock remains the same after the split, will be ____________.
Answer:
$47.50
Explanation:
A stock split implies dividing the existing number of shares into multiples in order to enhance the liquidity of the firm's shares.
It is noteworthy that the stock split does not add any value to the existing stock account balance as well as paid in surplus account value since only the number of issued shares changed , values are kept constant.
share price after split=share price before split/stock split ratio
share price before split=$95
stock split ratio=2/1
share price after split=$95/2/1
share price after split=$95*1/2
share price after split=$47.50
