Answer:
1. schedule variance = -$52,500
2. SPI = 0.65
3. CPI = 0.56
Explanation:
to get the solution, we calculate for BRWS and BRWP
first we calculate the budgeted revenue of the work scheduled for each activity using this formula:
budgeted revenue * planned completion
A = 25,000 x 100percent
= $25000
B = 150,000 x (25/30) percent
= $125000
C = 50000 x 0percent
= 0$
total = $25000+$125000+$0
= $150000
Next we calculate budgeted revenue of work performed (brwp)
calculated using this formula:
budgeted revenue x actual completion
A = 25000 x 90percent
= 22500 dollars
B = 150000 x 50percent
= $75000
C = 50000 x 0%
= $0
total = 22500 + 75000 + 0
= $97500
1. schedule variance = BRWP - BRWS
= $97500 - $150000
= -$52500
we have a negative schedule, telling us that the project is behind schedule
2. schedule performance index = revenue of work performed divided by revenue of work schedule
= 97500/150000
= 0.65
3. cost price index = revenue of work performed divided by actual revenue
= 97500/175000
= 0.56
4. how the project is going:
the schedule performance index (SPI) is 0.65 which is less than 1. this is to say that the project is doing better than planned revenue when we talk of revenue

Job (Hours)
Resource A B C D
1 5 8 7 7
2 4 9 5 9
3 6 9 8 7
4 7 6 6 9
What is the optimal assignment of resources to jobs?
Multiple Choice
1 to A; 2 to C; 3 to B; 4 to D
1 to B; 2 to D; 3 to C; 4 to A
1 to C; 2 to B; 3 to A; 4 to D
1 to D; 2 to B; 3 to C; 4 to A
1 to A; 2 to C; 3 to D; 4 to B
Answer:
1 → A ; 2 → C ; 3 → D ; 4 → B
Explanation:
From the given information, the table can be better structured as follows:
Job (Hours)
Resource A B C D
1 5 8 7 7
2 4 9 5 9
3 6 9 8 7
4 7 6 6 9
From the table, the allocation of resources is based on the minimum number of jobs i.e. time(hours) required to do all four tasks appropriately.
These are 1 → A ; 2 → C ; 3 → D ; 4 → B
Then, the time taken by this process is = (5 + 5 + 7 + 6)

What is the Total expected equity financing for Amazon’s purchase of Walmart, at the assumed 50-50% equity and debt financing deal mix provided
Answer:
The correct solution is "$241,356".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Share price,
P0 = 140.50
Acquisition premium,
p = 20%
Diluted shares outstanding,
N = 2,863 MM
Now,
For Amazon, the purchase price every share will be:
⇒ [tex]P=P0\times (1 + p)[/tex]
On putting the values, we get
⇒ [tex]=140.50\times (1 + 20 \ percent)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=168.60[/tex]
The purchase consideration will be:
= [tex]P\times N[/tex]
= [tex]168.60\times 2,863[/tex]
= [tex]482,702 \ MM[/tex]
So that,
The total equity financing expected will be:
= [tex]Purchase \ consideration\times Percentage \ of \ equity \ financing[/tex]
= [tex]482,702\times 50 \ percent[/tex]
= [tex]241,351 \ MM[/tex] ($)
Thus the above is the correct answer.
Stevenson Corporation acquires a one-year old building at a cost of $500,000 at the beginning of Year 2. The building has an estimated useful life of 50 years. However, based on reliable historical data, the company believes the carpeting will need to be replaced in 5 years, the roof will need to be replaced in 15 years, and the HVAC system will need to be replaced in 10 years. On the date of acquisition, the cost to replace these items would have been carpeting, $10,000; roof, $15,000; HVAC system, $30,000. Assume no residual value.
Required:
Determine the amount to be recognized as depreciation expense in Year 2 related to this building.
Answer:
$14,900
Explanation:
The computation of the amount recognized as a depreciation expense for the year 2 is shown below;
= Carpenting + roof + hvac system + building
= ($10,000 ÷ 5 years) + ($15,000 ÷ 15 years) + ($30,000 ÷ 10 years) + ($500,000 - $10,000 - $15,000 - $30,000) ÷ (50 years)
= $2,000 + $1,000 + $3,000 + $8,900
= $14,900
An internal study by the Technology Services department at Lahey Electronics revealed company employees receive an average of two emails per hour. Assume the arrival of these emails is approximated by the Poisson distribution.
a. What is the probability Linda Lahey, company president, received exactly 1 email between 4 P.M. and 5 P.M. yesterday?
b. What is the probability she received 5 or more emails during the same period?
c. What is the probability she did not receive any emails during the period?
Answer:
0.2706 ; 0.05265 ; 0.1353
Explanation:
Given that :
λ = 2
According to the poisson distribution formula :
P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) / x!
P(x = 1) = (2^1 *e^-2) / 1!
P(x = 1) = (2 * 0.1353352) = 0.2706
P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - [p(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) + p(x = 3) + p(x = 4)]
We obtain and add the individual probabilities. To save computation time, we can use a poisson distribution calculator :
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - (0.13534+0.27067+0.27067+0.18045+0.09022)
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - 0.94735 = 0.05265
P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5) = 0.05265
Probability that no emails was received :
x = 0
P(x = 0) = (2^0 *e^-2) / 0!
P(x = 0) = (1 * 0.1353352) / 1 = 0.1353
When making replacement decisions, the development of relevant cash flows is complicated when compared to expansion decisions.
a. True
b. False

When a firm shifts from transactional selling to a value-added and relationship approach, a number of changes have to take place in the way a salesperson approaches customer as well as his or her own job. List as many of these changes as you can and explain why each is important to making value-added selling work. Minimus words 100 and please provide source of information
Answer:
When a firm shifts from transactional to value-added and relationship approach of selling the following changes takes place in the way the salesperson approaches he customer and their job:
Whilst the objective the transactional approach is to make a sale, the relational approach is to build trust. When a customer trusts their sales person, it means they hold the sales person to put their interests first or at least take care of their interests whilst taking care of their too. The relational approach is more focused on retaining existing customers than making new ones. This is the obverse of a transactional relationship. It is said that it costs about 5 times extra to get a new client than what it takes to keep one. Thus the smart company focuses on honing this skill until they are better off for it. in a transactional approach, the nature of the relationship is relatively short, whilst it is stronger and longer in a relational approach. A Relational approach to selling can sometimes occur in the grey line between personal and official relationships.In a relationship-based approach to selling, the firm focuses on adding value in the primary areas of concern for the client as well as other areas. For example, a client - the CEO of a start-up requires recruitment, onboarding, and standard operating procedure as services from a HR firm. As a relational HR person, the best way to proceed would be to give him exactly what he wants and stil go ahead to add more value in other areas by giving templates of letter of appointment to the client.Cheers!

Explanation:
This question examines the market for mangos. You will use a demand function to construct the demand schedule, calculate the price elasticity of demand at different points along a linear demand curve, and identify the likely effects of price changes on total revenue.
Below, you are provided with the demand function for mangos. If you plug any price into the formula for the demand function, you get the quantity demanded at that price.
Q = 150 – 25P
Task 1. Use the table below to find the quantity of mangos demanded at each price.
Price Quantity of Mangos Demanded
$1
2
3
4
5
Task 2. Calculate the price elasticity of demand when the price falls from $5 to $4.
Task 3. When the price of a mango falls from $5 to $4, does total revenue fall or rise? How do you know?
Task 4. When the price of a mango falls from $3 to $2, does total revenue fall or rise?
Answer:
Task 1. Use the table below to find the quantity of mangos demanded at each price.
For a price of $1, the quantity demanded of mangos is:
Q = 150 - 25 ($1)
Q = 125
For $2:
Q = 150 - 25 ($2)
Q = 150 - 50
Q = 100
For $3
Q = 150 - 25 ($3)
Q = 150 - 75
Q = 75
For $4
Q = 150 - 25 ($4)
Q = 150 - 100
Q = 50
For $5
Q = 150 - 25 ($5)
Q = 150 - 125
Q = 25
Task 2. Calculate the price elasticity of demand when the price falls from $5 to $4.
The formula is
Price Elasiticy of Demand (PED) = ((Q2 - Q1) / (Q2 + Q1) / 2 ) / ((P2 - P1) / ((P2 + P1) / 2)
Now, we plug the amounts into the formula
PED = ((50 - 25) / (50 + 25) / 2) / ((4 - 5) / (4 + 5) / 2)
PED = 0.1666 / -0.0556
PED = -3
We take the absolute value, 3, which is a PED higher than 1, meaning that demand is elastic: the quantity demanded in this case increased more than the price.
Task 3. When the price of a mango falls from $5 to $4, does total revenue fall or rise? How do you know?
Revenue = Price x Quantity
Under the first scenario, revenue = $5 x 25 = $125
Under the second scenario, revenue = $4 x 50 = $200
So revenue increased by $75.
Task 4. When the price of a mango falls from $3 to $2, does total revenue fall or rise?
First scenario = $3 x 75 = $225
Second scenario = $2 x 100 = 200
So revenue actually falls by $25.
Pierce Which of the following statements is therefore necessarily true for Pierce? has a concave utility of wealth function, u(x). Pierce prefers prospect X to prospect Y.
a. CE(X) > CE(Y).
b. U(EV(X)) > U(EV(Y))
c. EU(X) < EU(Y)
d. Y is a mean preserving spread of X.
Answer:
A) CE(X) > CE(Y) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Solution:
Correct Answer is A) CE(X) > CE(Y)
Because:
1. First of all, we are given that Pierce has a concave utility of wealth function u(x) which means Pierce is a kind of person who does not prefer taking risk.
2. Secondly, we are given that he prefers prospect X to Prospect Y.
3. Thirdly, Pierce will always make sure that Certainty Equivalent should be higher than others as Pierce does not want to take risks.
4. Lastly, he prefers X to Y so, he will make sure CE(X) must be greater than CE(Y) .
Hence,
A) CE(X) > CE(Y) is the correct answer.

If the velocity of money is 3 and the amount of narrow money is $1.56 billion, what would be the nominal GDP?
Select one:
a. $8.5 trillion
b. $4.68 billion
c. $4.68 trillion
d. $5.68 billion
= 4.68 billion
Answer:
c. $4.68 trillion
Explanation:
Narrow money refers to the physical money coins and notes within an economy. It is a way of measuring the money that is available for immediate spending in the economy.
The velocity of money is the rate at which money circulates in the economy. Therefore, the velocity of money is a measure of the number of times narrow money circulates in the economy per period.
If the velocity of money is 3, narrow money circulates three times, meaning the value of GDP will be the velocity of money multiplied by narrow money
=3 x 1.56 billion
=4.68 billion

What is the accounting principle?
Answer:
Historical cost principle
Explanation:
Assets must be recorded at cost value, not market value. When you record an asset, you cannot change its value every period, you have to keep using the historical value. This is why we use a separate account to record accumulated depreciation of assets, so that the purchase cost is always constant, but the net carrying value will vary depending on depreciation expense.
Market value changes and can be very volatile. Imagine a house, whose initial value was $300,000, then it increased to $500,000 but the market went down and its value was $350,000. It would be a mess to change the value and pay capital gains taxes, or then report a loss.

Warner Clothing is considering the introduction of a new baseball cap for sales by local vendors. The company has collected the following price and cost characteristics.
Sales price $15 per unit
Variable costs 5 per unit
Fixed costs 50,000 per month
Required:
a. What number must Warner sell per month to break even?
b. What number must Warner sell per month to make an operating profit of $34,000 and $8,400. Assume that the company plans to sell 9,000 units per month. Consider requirements (b), (c), and (d) independently of each other.
c. What will be the operating profit?
d. What is the impact on operating profit if the sales price decreases by 10 percent? Increases by 20 percent?
Answer:
a. 5,000 units
b. 8,400 units and 5,840 units
c. $40,000
d. decrease of operating profit by 22.50 % and increase of operating profit by 45.00%
Explanation:
Breakeven point is level at which a firm makes neither profit nor loss
Break even units = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit
Break even units = 5,000 units
Units to achieve target profit = Target Profit + Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit
Units to achieve profit of $34,000 = 8,400 units
Units to achieve profit of $8,400 = 5,840 units
Operating Profit = Contribution - Fixed Costs
= $40,000
The effect on change of operating profit can be best shown by calculation of the Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL)
DOL = Contribution ÷ Profit
= 2.25
Sales decreases of 10 percent = decrease of operating profit by 22.50 % (10 % × 2.25)
Sales Increases of 20 percent = increase of operating profit by 45.00% (20%× 2.25)

During 2018, Raines Umbrella Corp. had sales of $810,000. Cost of goods sold, administrative and selling expenses, and depreciation expenses were $580,000, $90,000, and $135,000, respectively. In addition, the company had an interest expense of $91,000 and a tax rate of 21 percent. (Ignore any tax loss carryforward provisions and assume interest expense is fully deductible.) Suppose the company paid out $55,000 in cash dividends. If net capital spending and net working capital was zero, and if no new stock was issued during the year, what is the net new long-term debt
Answer:
$6,000
Explanation:
The computation of the net new long term debt is as follows:
But before that following calculations to be done:
Sales $810,000
Less: COGS ($580,000)
Less: S&A Expenses ($90,000)
Less: Depreciation ($135,000)
EBIT $5,000
Less: Interest ($91,000)
Taxable Income ($86,000)
Less: Taxes(21%) $0
Net Income(loss) ($86,000)
Now
OCF = EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes
= $5,000 + $135,000 - $0
= $140,000
Change in NWC = Net capital spending = Net new equity = 0
Cash flow from assets = OCF - Change in NWC - Net capital spending
= $140,000 - $0 - $0
= $140,000
Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends - Net New Equity
= $55,000 - $0
= $55,000
Cash flow to creditors = Cash flow from assets - Cash flow to stockholders
= $140,000 - $55,000
= $85,000
Cash flow to creditors = Interest - Net new LTD
$85,000 = $91,000 - Net new LTD
So,
Net new LTD is
= $91,000 - $85,000
= $6,000
