Kite Corporation has provided the following contribution format income statement. Assume that the following information is within the relevant range.
Sales (3,000 units) $ 180,000
Variable expenses 108,000
Contribution margin 72,000
Fixed expenses 62,400
Net operating income $ 9,600
The contribution margin ratio is closest to:______.
a. 33%
b. 40%
c. 60%
d. 67%

Answers

Answer:

b. 40%

Explanation:

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution / Sales x 100

where,

Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs

                     =  $180,000 - 108,000

                     =  $72,000

therefore,

Contribution margin ratio = $72,000/ $180,000 x 100

                                          = 40 %

thus,

The contribution margin ratio is closest to 40 %.

b. Calculate the four-firm concentration ratio (C4).
c. Based on the FTC and DOJ Horizontal Merger Guidelines described in the text, is the Department of Justice likely to attempt to block a horizontal merger between two firms with sales of $355,000 and $435,000

Answers

Answer:

Calculating Herfindahl-Hirschman Index and Four-Firm Concentration Ratio:

a. Herfindahl-Hirschman index (HHI) = 3,814

b. The four-firm concentration ratio (C4) = 1

c. If the two firms with sales of $355,000 and $435,000 merged, the resulting HHI would increase by 1,723 to 5,537.  The post-merger HHI now exceeds that allowed under the Guidelines (2,500). The increase in HHI is more than that permitted under the Guidelines (200), the merger is likely to be blocked by the Department of Justice.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Sales of three firms in an industry:

                            Sales          Industry Share

Firm A sales = $355,000        22% ($355,000/$1,615,000 * 100)

Firm B sales =   825,000         51% ($825,000/$1,615,000 * 100)

Firm C sales =   435,000        27% ($435,000/$1,615,000 * 100)

Total sales =  $1,615,000

Herfindahl-Hirschman index (HHI) = 3,814 (22² + 51² + 27²)

Four-firm concentration ratio (C4) = Sales of the four largest firms/Industry sales = $1,615,000/$1,615,000

If the two firms with sales of $355,000 and $435,000 were to merge, the new Herfindahl-Hirschman index (HHI) = 5,537(49² + 51²)

Increase in HHI as a result of the merger = 1,723

please someone should help me.....how do we solve the square root of x +8 plus the square root of x+1 equals 7.....note the question is a surd question​

Answers

The solution to the surd equation here is x = 449/49

How to solve for the value of the surd

[tex]\sqrt{x+8} +\sqrt{x-1} = 7[/tex]

We have to isolate the surds

[tex]\sqrt{x+8} =\sqrt{x-1} +7[/tex]

Square the both sides of the equation

x+8 = x-1+49-14√x-1

Separate the equations on the left and the right hand side

14√x-1 = -x-8+x-1+49

Rearrange the equation

14√x-1 = 40

square the both sides of the equation such that

a. Verslas could not sell more units by lowering its price.
b. Verslas is earning normal profit.
c. Verslas is earning $3,600 in profit.
d. Verslas has a marginal revenue less than $5.
e. Verslas has a marginal revenue greater than $5.

Answers

Answer:

b

Explanation:

A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopolistic competition has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.

An example of monopolistic competition are restaurants  

When firms are earning positive economic profit, in the long run, firms enter into the industry. This drives economic profit to zero

If firms are earning negative economic profit, in the long run, firms leave the industry.  This drives economic profit to zero

in the long run, only normal profit is earned

If Verslas is producing at a profit maximising point, it means that marginal revenue equal marginal revenue and the firm is earning a normal profit

A large bakery buys flour in 25-pound bags. The bakery uses an average of 1,215 bags a year. Preparing an order and receiving a shipment of flour involves a cost of $10 per order. Annual carrying costs are $75 per bag.

Required:
a. Determine the economic order quantity. (Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.) Economic order quantity bags
b. What is the average number of bags on hand? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.) Average number of bags
c. How many orders per year will there be? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.) Number of orders per year
d. Compute the total cost of ordering and carrying flour.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below

a. The economic order quantity is

= sqrt ((2 × annual demand × ordering cost) ÷ carrying cost)

= sqrt ((2 × 1,215 × $10) ÷ $75)

=  18 units

b) Average number of bags on hand is

= EOQ ÷ 2

= 18 ÷ 2

= 9

c) Orders per year is

= D ÷ EOQ

= 1215 ÷ 18

= 67.5

= 68

d) Total cost = Total carrying cost+ Total ordering cost

= (Q ÷ 2)H +(D ÷ Q)S

= (18 ÷ 2)75 + (1215 ÷ 18) × 10

= 675 + 675

= $1350

You manage an equity fund with an expected risk premium of 13% and a standard deviation of 44%. The rate on Treasury bills is 6.6%. Your client chooses to invest $90,000 of her portfolio in your equity fund and $60,000 in a T-bill money market fund. What is the expected return and standard deviation of return on your client’s portfolio? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the expected return and the standard deviation is given below:

the expected return is

= $90,000 × 13% + $60,000 × 6.6%

= $15,660.00

And,

standard deviation of return is

= $90,000 × 13% × 44% + $60,000 × 6.6%

= $5,148 + $3,960

= $9,108.00

In this way it should be calculated

A. a credit to FUTA payable for 24.
B. a debit to payroll tax expense in the amount of 390.
C. a credit to SUTA payable for 60.
D. all of the above.

Answers

Answer: D. all of the above.

Explanation:

FUTA:

Cumulative earnings were $4,000. FUTA is one the first $7,000 which means that only $3,000 is left to be taxed on account of the cumulative earnings prior to this payroll having been taxed:

= 0.8% * 3,000

= $24

This will be credited to FUTA Payable to recognize that Jefferson owes this liability.

SUTA:

Same goes for SUTA:

= 2% * 3,000

= $60

This will be credited to SUTA Payable to recognize that Jefferson owes this liability.

Payroll tax expense:

= FICA taxes + Medicare + FUTA + SUTA

= ((6.2% + 1.45%) * 4,000) + 24 + 60

= $390

This will be debited to Payroll Tax expense because expenses are debited when they increase.

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

NPW of X is

= -$20,000 - $9,000 × (P/A,12%,5) + $5,000 × (P/F,12%,5)

= -$20,000 - $9,000 × 3.604776 + $5,000 × 0.567427

= -$49,605.85

And,  

NPW of Y is

= -$35,000 - $4,000 × (P/A,12%,5) + $7,000 × (P/F,12%,5)

= -$35,000 - $4,000 × 3.604776 + $7,000 × 0.567427

A rules-based monetary policy :_______.a. is advocated by activists. b. is advocated by nonactivists. c. could involve a predetermined steady growth rate in the money supply. d. b and c e. all of the above

Answers

Answer:

d. b and c

Explanation:

Monetary policy can be defined as the actions (macroeconomic policies) adopted and undertaken by the central bank of a particular country (Federal Reserve System in the United States of America) to control the money supply and interest rates so as to boost or enhance economic growth.

Basically, monetary policies are used by the central bank to manage inflation, economic growth through long-term interest rates and level of unemployment in a country. In order to boost economic growth, the national government through its central bank introduces monetary policy to increase money supply (liquidity). Also, a monetary policy can be used to prevent inflation through the reduction of money supply at a given period of time.

A rules-based monetary policy is advocated by non-activists and when it's adopted by the central bank of a country, it could involve a predetermined steady growth rate in the money supply because it's implemented based on specific indicator events existing in the economy.

2. If compensation for senior management is based on short-term performance of the firm, in the short run the firm is likely to:

a. Overstate its earnings

Explanation:

Company A's Income Statement shows its profit performance at different levels.  At one level is the gross profit, which shows the difference between the net sales or service revenue and the cost of sales/service.  At another level is the operating income, which is the income before interest and taxes.  The next important level is the net income, which is the profit after taxes.  This shows the earnings available for distribution to stockholders.  The Statement of Cash Flows classifies the cash flows generated into operating, investing, and financing activities, and shows the non-cash flow adjustments.

Borges Machine​ Shop, Inc., has a​ 1-year contract for the production of 225,000 gear housings for a new​ off-road vehicle. Owner Luis Borges hopes the contract will be extended and the volume increased next year. Borges has developed costs for three alternatives. They are​ general-purpose equipment​ (GPE), flexible manufacturing system​ (FMS), and​ expensive, but​ efficient, dedicated machine​ (DM). The cost data​ follow: ​

General-Purpose Equipment​ (GPE) Flexible Manufacturing System​ (FMS) Dedicated Machine​ (DM)
Annual contracted units 225,000 225,000 225,000
Annual fixed cost $125,000 $225,000 $480,000
Per unit variable cost $15.00 $14.00 $13.00

The option GPE is best when the contracted volume is below:__________

Answers

Answer:

For 225,000 units FMS is the best alternative.

For GPE: TC  

GPE  

[tex]= $100,000 + ($15.00\times 225,000)\\\\= $3,475,000[/tex]

For 0 units GPE has the lowest TC. The next lowest cost is FMS.

x = ($200,000-$100,000)/($15-$14) = 100,000  

Therefore, for 0 to 100,000 units GPE is the best alternative.

Explanation:  

Formula used:-

For 225,000 units FMS is the best alternative.

Total Cost (TC) = Fixed Cost (FC) + [Variable Cost (VC) x Annual Contract Units (ACU)]  

For GPE: TC  

GPE  

[tex]= $100,000 + ($15.00\times 225,000)\\\\= $3,475,000[/tex]

For FMS: TC  

FMS  

[tex]= $200,000 + ($14.00\times 225,000)\\\\= $3,350,000[/tex]

For DM: TC  

DM  

[tex]= $480,000 + ($13.00 \times225,000)\\\\= $3,405,000[/tex]

   

For 0 units GPE has the lowest TC. The next lowest cost is FMS. Comparing these two plans, let x be the no of units when the cost of both plans is the same.  

x = ($200,000-$100,000)/($15-$14) = 100,000  

Therefore, for 0 to 100,000 units GPE is the best alternative  

Similarly comparing FMS and DM to find x, we get  

x= ($ 480,000-$ 200,000)/($14-$13) = 280,000  

So, for the 225,000 and 280,000 range, FMS is the best alrernative.  

For greater than 280,000 DM is the best alternative.  

The option GPE is best when the contracted volume is below 100,000 units  

The option FMS is best when the contracted volume is between 100,000 and 280,000 units (enter your response as a whole number)  

The option DM is best when the contracted volume is over 280,000 units (enter your response as a whole number)

On November 1, 2010, Salem Corporation sold land priced at $900,000 in exchange for a 6%, six-month note receivable. As a result of this sale of land, what will Salem's Balance Sheet on December 31, 2010 include

Answers

Answer:

Note receivables of $900,000 & Interest receivable of $9,000

Explanation:

As a result of this sale of land, what will Salem's Balance Sheet on December 31, 2010 include?

Interest receivable = $900,000*6%*2/12

Interest receivable = $900,000 * 0.01

Interest receivable = $9,000

So, Salem's Balance Sheet on December 31, 2010 will include Note receivables of $900,000 and Interest receivable of $9,000.

A company projects an increase in net income of $108000 each year for the next five years if it invests $900000 in new equipment. The equipment has a 5-year life and an estimated salvage value of $300000. What is the annual rate of return on this investment?
a. 20.5%
b. 31.0%
c. 30.0%
d. 30.8%

Answers

Answer:

18 %

Explanation:

Annual rate of return on this investment = annual profit / average investment x 100

where,

annual profit = $108000

average investment = (initial cost + salvage value) ÷ 2

                                 = ($900000 + $300000) ÷ 2

                                 = $600,000

therefore,

annual rate of return on this investment = $108000 / $600,000 x 100

                                                                   = 18 %

A tremendous flood along the Mississippi River destroys thousands of factories, reducing the nation's capital stock by 5%. What happens to current employment and the real wage rate

Answers

Answer:

Both employment and the real wage rate would decrease

Explanation:

Given that the capital stock of a nation or country jas a direct impact on such country in terms of savings and investments which directly translates to additional.economic development.

Hence, in this case, when a tremendous flood along the Mississippi River destroys thousands of factories, reducing the nation's capital stock by 5%. What happens to current employment and the real wage rate is that "Both employment and the real wage rate would decrease"

This because there won't be adequate money available to create more employment. And with lease employment opportunities than the available labor, the real wage rate tends to decrease over time.

RST Company produces a product that has a variable cost of $6 per unit. The company's fixed costs are $30,000. The product sells for $10 per unit. The break-even point in sales dollars is $_____________.

Answers

Answer: $75000

Explanation:

In order to solve the question, firstly we need to calculate the contribution margin ratio which will be:

= ($10 - $6) / $10

= 40%

Then, the break even sales will then be:

= Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

= $30000 / 40%

= $75000

Therefore, the break-even point in sales dollars is $75000
