The privately-owned school system in Smalltown has a virtually unlimited capacity. It accepts all applicants and operates on both tuition and private donations. Although every resident places value on having an educated community, the school's revenues have suffered lately due to a large decline in private donations from the elderly population. Since the benefit that each citizen receives from having an educated community is a public good, which of the following would not be correct?
a. The free-rider problem causes the private market to undersupply education to the community
b. The govemment can potentially help the market reach a socially optimal level of education.
c. A tax increase to pay for education could potentially make the community better off.
d. The private market is the best way to supply education.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The privately-owned school system in Smalltown generates  positive externality to members of SmalltownA good has positive externality if the benefits to third parties not involved in production is greater than the cost. an example of an activity that generates positive externality is research and development. Due to the high cost of R & D, they are usually under-produced. Government can encourage the production of activities that generate positive externality by granting subsidies.

The free rider problem is a form of market failure. It occurs when people benefit from a good or service of communal nature and do not pay to enjoy these services.

The free rider has caused a decline in revenues and did not cause the private market to undersupply education to the community

The Japanese economy has been experiencing slow growth. As a result the Prime Minister, who thinks John Maynard Keynes was the greatest economist ever, has decided to increase government spending. As head of the economic council the Prime Minister asks you to determine the size of the increase needed to bring the economy to full employment.
Assume there is a GDP gap of 1 billion yen and the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is .60. What advise do you give the Prime Minister?
a. The recessionary gap is equal to 625 million yen.
b. The inflationary gap is equal to 1 billion yen divided by 2.5 or 0.4 billion yen.
c. The recessionary gap is equal to 1 billion yen divided by 2.5 or 0.4 billion yen.
d. The inflationary gap is equal to 1 billion yen divided by 1.66 or 0.625 billion yen.

Answers

Answer:

c. The recessionary gap is equal to 1 billion yen divided by 2.5 or 0.4 billion yen.

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The multiplier is

= 1 ÷ (1 - MPC)

= 1 ÷ (1 - 0.60)

= 2.5

Now the increase in government expenditure for closing out the recessionary gap should be

Change in income = change in government purchase × multiplier

100 = change in government purchase × 2.5

So, the change in government purchase should be

= 100 ÷2.5

= 40

Hence, the option c is correct

Binford Corporation's contribution margin ratio is 58%, and its fixed monthly expenses are $94,000. Assume that the company's sales for May are expected to be $178,000.
Required:
Estimate the company's net operating income for May, assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change.

Answers

Answer:

$9,240

Explanation:

Calculation to Estimate the company's net operating income for May, assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change

Using this formula

Net operating income = (CM ratio × Sales) - Fixed expenses

Let plug in the formula

Net operating income= (0.58× $178,000) - $94,000

Net operating income= $103,240 - $94,000

Net operating income= $9,240

Therefore the company's net operating income for May, assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change is $9,240

Answers

Answer:

$512,000

Explanation:

Because the service condition is 3 years, the total share-based payment expense will be recognized over 3 years. The expense recognized in each year is calculated as:

Year 1 = 50 options x 800 employees x 80% x $16 x 1/3 years = $170,667

Year 2 = 50 options x 800 employees x 80% x $16 x 2/3 years - $170,667 = $170,667

Year 3 = 50 options x 800 employees x 80% x $16 x 3/3 years - $170,667 x 2 = $170,667

Total share-based payment expense = $170,667 + $170,667 + $170,667 = $512,000

Green's cash tax rate is

Answers

Answer:

19.30%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what Green's cash tax rate is

First step is to calculate the Taxes payable using this formula

Taxes payable = (Pretax book income + provision for warranties - depreciation in excess of books - dividends received deduction) x 21%

Let plug in the formula

Taxes payable= ($1,040,000 + $52,000 - $110,000 - $26,000) x 21%

Taxes payable=$956,000×21%

Taxes payable= $200,760

Now let determine the Cash tax rate using this formula

Cash tax rate = Taxes payable / Pretax book income

Let Plug in the formula

Cash tax rate = $200,760 / $1,040,000

Cash tax rate = .1930

Cash tax rate=19.30%

Therefore Green's cash tax rate is 19.30%

The company's management is considering shutting down the Northern Division and has determined that $350,000 of the $480,000 Fixed Costs shown would be eliminated if that happens. If the Northern Division is shutdown, what is the change (impact) in Southwest's forecast operating results

Answers

Answer:

Operating loss will decrease by $20,000

Explanation:

Operating loss from normal business activities and if the division is not shut down = $150,000.

Operating loss if division is shut down by the management = $130,000 ($480,000 - $350,000) because the management has determined that $350,000 of the $480,000 Fixed Costs shown would be eliminated if that happens.

So, if the Northern Division is shutdown, the Operating loss will decrease by $20,000 (From $150,000 to $130,000)

- products are nearly identical

- all the firms are price takers. That is they are not able to determine price independently

- buyer knowledge of information about products is perfect and available to all

- free entry and exit to the market

- resources are perfectly mobile

In the given scenario above two of these rules are not obeyed.

Alcoa was effectively the sole seller of aluminum because the firm owned nearly all of the aluminum ore reserves in the world.

So they determine the price ( they are not price takers)

The US imposes a tariff on the import of a computer chip that is also produced at higher cost by a US firm. The US firm is an important supplier to the US Navy. The US is probably using the _____ argument for protectionism.

Answers

Answer: d. Strategic industry

Explanation:

Sometimes countries will introduce a tariff in order to reduce the importation of a good or service that might be ruled as important for the security of the country and so would need to be produced by a company in the country. Goods related to national defense are especially more likely to fall under such tariffs.

The industry is therefore said to be strategic. This is what happened in the scenario above because the chip is used by the U.S. Navy which makes it national defense related.

Using the high-low method, the fixed cost is calculated ______. Multiple select question. by adding the total cost to the variable cost using either the high or low level of activity before the variable cost is calculated after the variable cost per unit is calculated

Answers

Answer:

is calculated after the variable cost per unit is calculated

Explanation:

Costing is the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.

In Financial accounting, fixed cost can be defined as predetermined expenses in a business that remain constant for a specific period of time regardless of the quantity of production or level of outputs. Some examples of fixed costs in business are loan payments, employee salary, depreciation, rent, insurance, lease, utilities, etc.

On the other hand, variable costs can be defined as expenses that are not constant and as such usually change directly and are proportional to various changes in business activities. Some examples of variable costs are taxes, direct labor, sales commissions, raw materials, operational expenses, etc.

Using the high-low method, the fixed cost can only be calculated after the variable cost (VC) per unit is calculated through the application of either the low or high level of activity.

Using the high-low method, the fixed cost is calculated : After the variable cost per unit is calculated.

What is costing?

Costing refers to the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services whereby, the fixed costs and variable costs associated with production are examined.

Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with the level of output, while variable cost are cost that varies with the activity level.

Using the high-low method, the fixed cost can only be calculated after the variable cost (VC) per unit is calculated through the application of either the low or high level of activity.

Hence, using the high-low method, the fixed cost is calculated after the variable cost per unit is calculated.
