Real gross domestic product refers to the measure of the output in an economy with the inflation in the economy taken into consideration and it has been adjusted with respect to the inflation. The real gross domestic product measures the economic growth rate.
Suppose the elasticity of demand for tickets to Broadway shows is 2.0 for men and 0.3 for women. To use price discrimination to increase profits, the producers should charge lower prices to _____ because their demand is more _____. men; inelastic than that of women women; inelastic than that of men women; elastic than that of men men; elastic than that of women
Answer:
men; elastic than that of women
Explanation:
Price discrimination is when the same product is sold at different prices to customers in different markets
types of price discrimination
1. first degree price discrimination : here sellers charge each consumer at their willingness to pay in order to eliminate consumer surplus.
2. second degree price discrimination : here firms offer different prices depending on the quantity purchased. e.g. giving discounts for bulk purchases.
3, third degree price discrimination : firms charge different prices to different groups of customers. e.g. having a certain price for senior citizens, students
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
Men have an elastic demand for tickets to Broadway shows
Women have an inelastic demand for tickets to Broadway shows
Since men have an elastic demand, if prices are reduced, the demand for tickets would increase and total profits of producers would increase
Knowledge Check 01 The standard quantity per unit defines the ________. multiple choice price that should be paid for each unit of direct materials. total cost of direct materials that should be used for each unit of finished product. amount of direct materials that should be used for each unit of finished product including an allowance for normal inefficiencies, such as scrap and spoilage. amount of direct labor-hours that should be used to produce one unit of finished goods.
Answer:
amount of direct materials that should be used for each unit of finished product including an allowance for normal inefficiencies, such as scrap and spoilage.
Explanation:
Standard quantity per unit is defined as materials that the manufacturer needs to complete a unit of a product. It also allows for inefficiencies such as spoilage and scrap.
It is used by managers to reduce wastage that exists during production by allocation of only the required amount of direct materials in the production process.
Carey Company had sales in 2016 of $1,560,000 on 60,000 units. Variable costs totaled $900,000, and fixed costs totaled $500,000. A new raw material is available that will decrease the variable costs per unit by 20% (or $3). However, to process the new raw material, fixed operating costs will increase by $100,000. Management feels that one-half of the decline in the variable costs per unit should be passed on to customers in the form of a sales price reduction. The marketing department expects that this sales price reduction will result in a 5% increase in the number of units sold.
(a) Prepare a projected CVP income statement for 2017, assuming the changes have not been made, and
(b) assuming that changes are made as described.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price per unit= 1,560,000 / 60,000= $26
Unitary variable cost= 900,000 / 60,000= $15
Fixed costs= $500,000.
First, the income statement without the changes:
Sales= 1,560,000
Total varaible cost= (900,000)
Contribution margin= 660,000
Total fixed costs= (500,000)
Net operating income= 160,000
Now, with the changes:
Unitary variable cost= (15*0.8)= 12
Selling price= 26 - 1.5= $24.5
Sales in units= 60,000*1.05= 63,000
Fixed costs= 500,000 + 100,000= $600,000
Sales= 24.5*63,000= 1,543,500
Total variable cost= (12*63,000)= (756,000)
Total contribution margin= 787,500
Fixed costs= (600,000)
Net operating income= 187,500
Berry Bloom Co is getting ready for Mother's Day and needs to purchase bouquets of flowers which will be sold prior to the holiday. Due to the high demand leading up to Mother's Day, the bouquets of flowers are sold at $20/bouquet. However, after the holiday, the bouquets can only be sold at $10/bouquet. The bouquets of flowers are purchased at $15/bouquet. Berry Bloom Co wants to perform an analysis to determine how many bouquets should be procured in preparation for Mother's Day. This type of problem is called the Group of answer choices Economic Order Quantity Problem Nonlinear Optimization Problem Newsvendor Problem Discriminant Analysis Problem
Answer:
Berry Bloom Co.
This type of problem that requires Berry to perform an analysis to determine how many bouquets of flowers to procure in preparation for Mother's Day is a:
Newsvendor Problem.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price of bouquets of flowers = $20/bouquet
Cost price of bouquets of flowers = $15/bouquet
Profit per bouquet during Mother's Day = $5 ($20 - $15)
After-holiday selling price of the bouquets of flowers = $10/bouquet
Loss per bouquet of flower after the holiday = $5 ($15 - $10)
b) The Newsvendor model describes the challenges facing Berry Bloom as it gets ready for the Mother's Day holiday. The company must decide the volume of bouquets of flowers to procure prior to the holiday. The purchase decision becomes a problem because the demand for flowers is not certain, and the company is aware that unsold bouquets will be sold at a loss of $5 per bouquet after the holiday.

How much rent is allocable to the assembly department using the direct method of allocation
Answer:
$404,800
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much rent is allocable to the assembly department using the direct method of allocation
Using this formula
Rent =Area used by Assembly department / Total Area used by Manufacturing Departments x Total Rent paid
Let plug in the formula
Rent =36,850/ (36,850+30,150) x $736,000
Rent=36,850/67,000*$738,000
Rent=0.55*$736,000
Rent= $404,800
Therefore How much rent is allocable to the assembly department using the direct method of allocation is $404,800

Correct words to finish the sentences:
Fish in the ocean can be caught by anyone, and it is difficult to prevent people from fishing, in this sense, fish in the oceans are__non-excludable___.
If I catch a fish, that means there is one less fish in the sea for someone else to catch. Therefore, fish are__rivalrous___.
Considering those two characteristics, fish in the ocean are_common goods___.
Explanation:
The two key characteristics of a public good are: it is non-excludable and non-rivalrous. A common good is non-excludable but rivalrous. A private good is excludable and rivalrous. A club good is excludable and non-rivalrous.
Non-excludable refers to goods that are costly and impossible for a person to exclude other users from using the goods.
Non-rivalrous good refers to goods that a person can use without preventing others from using the goods.
For 2021, Rahal's Auto Parts estimates bad debt expense at 1% of credit sales. The company reported accounts receivable and an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $91,000 and $3,000, respectively, at December 31, 2020. During 2021, Rahal's credit sales and collections were $413,000 and $417,000, respectively, and $3,690 in accounts receivable were written off. Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021, is:
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021 would be calculated as;
Step 1
= $413,000 × 1%
= $413,000 × 0.01
= $4,130
Step 2
= $3,000 - $3,690
= ($690)
Step 3
= $4,130 + ($690)
= $4,130 - $690
= $3,440
Therefore, Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2020 is $3,440

Answer:
d. People are willing to accept a currency in the future as compensation for debts accrued earlier
Explanation:
Money can be used to pay your current debts at a later date since $100 will still be $100 in the future. They might lose some of its value due to inflation, but they do not spoil or rot, and will probably be accepted in the future. imagine trying to pay an old debt with rotten tomatoes or an old cow.
Assigning manufacturing overhead costs and other indirect costs is called a:
Answer:
Cost allocation
Explanation:
Cost allocation means the process where the identification, aggregation, and the allocating of the cost is made to the various cost objects. It plays an important role as the cost i.e. incurred for generating a particular product or rendering a service would be determined
So if the manufacturing overhead cost assigned and the other indirect cost so this we called cost allocation
Waterway Industries purchased land as a factory site for $1335000. Waterway paid $120000 to tear down two buildings on the land. Salvage was sold for $8300. Legal fees of $5220 were paid for title investigation and making the purchase. Architect's fees were $46000. Title insurance cost $3900, and liability insurance during construction cost $4200. Excavation cost $15280. The contractor was paid $4500000. An assessment made by the city for pavement was $9700. Interest costs during construction were $258000. The cost of the land that should be recorded by Waterway Industries is $1479620. $1465520. $1469920. $1455820.
Answer:
$1,465,520
Explanation:
Calculation of cost of the land that should be recorded by Water ways industries
Cost of land = Purchase price + demolition of building - sales of salvage + legal fees + Title insurance cost + Payment assessment
Cost of land = $1,335,000 + $120,000 - $8,300 + $5,220 + $3,900 + $9,700
Cost of land = $1,465,520
Cost behavior for variable overhead is more difficult to predict than the behavior of direct materials or direct labor cost for all the following reasons except: A. Multiple cost drivers are involved with variable overhead. B. Direct material and direct labor contain no semi-variable component. C. The variable portion of overhead must first be separated from the fixed portion. D. Variable overhead is a relatively small part of total overhead.
Answer:
D. Variable overhead is a relatively small part of total overhead.
Explanation:
The variable overhead of the cost behavior would become more difficult for estimation as compared with the behavior of direct materials or direct labor for all the given reasons but it should not be valid for the variable overhead that contains small part of the total overhead
Therefore according to the given situation, the option D is correct
The law of diminishing marginal returns: a. states that each and every increase in the amount of the variable factor employed in the production process will yield diminishing marginal returns b. is a mathematical theorem that can be logically proved or disproved c. is the rate at which one input may be substituted for another input in the production process d. none of the above
Answer:
d. none of the above
Explanation:
In Economics, The law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.
Also, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.
For example, buying a chocolate bar and eating it may satisfy your cravings but eating another one wouldn't give you as much satisfaction as the first due to diminishing marginal utility.
The Allied Corporation analyzes a project that requires an immediate investment of $440. Allied estimates that at the end of the first year the project will generate a cash flow of $660, but that at the end of the second year, when the project ends, it will generate a negative cash flow of $85. The project's required rate of return is estimated to be 7.50%. Calculate the NPV of Allied's project.
Answer:
NPV = $100.4002 rounded off to $100.40
Explanation:
The NPV or net present value is the present value of a project or business's cash flows which are calculated by deducting the cash outflows from the cash inflows. NPV is a tool or criteria used for investment and project appraisal. The NPV can be calculated as follows,
NPV = CF1 / (1+r) + CF2 / (1+r)^2 + .... + CFn / (1+r)^n - Initial Outlay
Where,
CF1, CF2, ... represents the cash flows in Year 1, Year 2 and so on.r represents the discount rateNPV = 660 / (1+0.075) + [ -85 / (1+0.075)^2] - 440
NPV = $100.4002 rounded off to $100.40

With perfect price discrimination, the marginal revenue curve
A) is equal to the demand curve.
B) is below the demand curve. C) is above the demand curve.
D) is horizontal.
Answer: b
Explanation: Because the monopolist must lower the price on all units in order to sell additional units, marginal revenue is less than price. Because marginal revenue is less than price, the marginal revenue curve will lie below the demand curve.

Suppose the economy is experiencing a recession. The output gap is hovering at −7%, causing higher than normal unemployment. Using the Fed model, complete the following passages to compare and contrast how monetary policy and fiscal policy can impact the economy. a. The Federal Reserve can reduce the to stimulate greater output and employment. The federal government can increase to help ease the recession. b. If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, the MP curve will shift , and the IS curve will shift to the . Both shifts will increase , and t
Answer:
a. The Federal Reserve can reduce the interest rates to stimulate greater output and employment. The federal government can increase government spending to help ease the recession.
The Fed can reduce interest rates by engaging in expansionary monetary policy that would then make it easier to borrow funds for investment. The Federal government can also increase spending as this will put more money into the economy to help it start moving again.
b. If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, the MP curve will shift downward, and the IS curve will shift to the right. Both shifts will increase income.
If both monetary and fiscal policy are used, companies will start producing again and hiring more people which will shift the Marginal Productivity curve downward. The IS curve will also shift to the right and both to these are indicators of an increase in income.
Adkins Bakery uses the modified half-month convention to calculate depreciation expense in the year an asset is purchased or sold. Adkins has a calendar year accounting period and uses the straight-line method to compute depreciation expense. On March 17, 2018, Adkins acquired equipment at a cost of $220,000. The equipment has a residual value of $43,000 and an estimated useful life of 4 years. What amount of depreciation expense will be recorded for the year ending December 31, 2018
Answer:
Depreciation expense= $36,875
Explanation:
Under the straight line method of depreciation, the cost of an asset less the salvage value is spread equally over the expected useful life.
An equal amount is charged as annual depreciation over the life of the asset. The annual depreciation is calculated as follows:
Annual depreciation:
= (cost of assets - salvage value)/ Estimated useful life
Cost - 220,000
Residual value = 43,000
Estimated useful life = 4 years
Annual depreciation = (220,000- 43,000)/4 =44,250
Annual depreciation = 44,250.
Under the half-month convention, a full month depreciation is charged where an asset is first put to at the middle month of the month.
Thus March 17, 2018 to December 2018 is taken to be 10 full months
Depreciation expense = 44,250.× 10/12 = 36,875
Depreciation expense= $36,875
iRobot Company is analyzing two machines to determine which one it should purchase. Whichever machine is purchased will be replaced at the end of its useful life. The company requires a 14 percent rate of return and uses straight-line depreciation to a zero book value over the life of the machine. Machine A has a cost of $487,000, annual operating costs of $29,000, and a 6-year life. Machine B costs $315,000, has annual operating costs of $51,200, and a 4-year life. The firm currently pays no taxes. Which machine should be purchased and why
Answer:
Machine A should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost . Hence, it is cheaper.
Explanation:
Equivalent Annual cost is the Present Value of the total cost over the investment period divided by the appropriate annuity factor.
Step 1 : Equivalent Annual cost of Machine A
PV of cash flows
PV of purchase cost = 487,000
PV of annual operating cost of $29,000
= 29,000× (1-(1+0.14)^(-6))/0.14
= 112,771.35
Total PV = 487,000 + 112,771.35= 599,771.35
Equivalent annual cost = 599,771.35 /3.889
Equivalent annual cost = 154,235.70
Step 2: Equivalent Annual cost of Machine B
PV of purchase cost = 315,000
PV of annual operating cost of $51,200
= 51,200× (1-(1+0.14)^(-4))/0.14
= 149,182.07
Total PV = 315,000+ 149,182.07
= 464,182.07
Equivalent annual cost = 464,182.07/2.9137
Equivalent annual cost = 159,309.51
Step 3: Compare equivalent Annual cost
Comparing the two equivalent costs, we conclude that Machine A should be purchased because it has a lower equivalent annual cost and therefore it is cheaper.

You expect to receive a payout from a trust fund in 3 years. The payout will be for $10,200. You plan to invest the money at an annual rate of 6.2 percent until the account is worth $17,800. How many years do you have to wait from today
Answer:
n= 12.25 years
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Present value= $10,200
Future value= $17,800
Interest rate= 6.2%
First, we need to calculate the number of years it will take the investment to reach $17,80. We need to use the following formula:
n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)
n= ln(17,800/10,200) / ln(1.062)
n= 9.25 years
Now, the total number of years:
n= 9.25 + 3
n= 12.25 years

Explanation:
The computation of the value that should be recorded for variable cost is shown below:
= Total variable cost ÷ budgeted units × flexible budget units
= ($22,000 + $25,000 + $12,000) ÷ 8,000 units × 9,000 units
= $59,000 ÷ 8,000 units × 9,000 units
= $66,375
hence, the value that should be recorded for variable cost is $66,375
The above formula is used

Thus the solution seems to be the right one.
Short Company purchased land by paying $11,000 cash on the purchase date and agreed to pay $11,000 for each of the next six years beginning one-year from the purchase date. Short's incremental borrowing rate is 7%. On the balance sheet as of the purchase date, after the initial $11,000 payment was made, the liability reported is closest to: (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
Answer: $52,431.50
Explanation:
The liability reported will be the present value of the six payments of $11,000.
Since this is a constant amount, it will be an annuity:
= 11,000 * Present value interest factor of an annuity, 6 years, 7%
= 11,000 * 4.7665
= $52,431.50
Any difference between this and any options given is down to rounding errors. Pick the closest figure.
