Bill and Fred bake cakes and pies. Bill's opportunity cost of baking 1 pie is 5 cakes. Fred's opportunity cost of baking 1 pie is 7 cakes. If both parties are to benefit from trade then we can expect 1 pie to sell for: Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Bill will benefit from trade If 1P > 3C and Fred will benefit from trade If 1P < 5C

Thus, both will benefit from exchange if 3C < 1P < 5C.

That means that both of them would benefit from trading if 1 pie are to be traded for more than 3 cakes and less than 5 cakes like 1 pie is exchanged for 4 cakes. (As a result, since both sides are to profit from exchange, we should expect 1 pie to be exchanged for 4 cakes)

Melissa is an unmarried person who earns a salary of $54,000 per year and has $500 of interest income. Her itemized deductions total $2,500. She is able to use a non-refundable credit of $400. She has $5,000 of federal income taxes withheld from her wages. What is the amount of Melissa's REFUND OR TAX DUE FOR 2020

Answers

Answer:

$6150

Explanation:

These are the details of Melissa's income

Salary = $54000

Interest income = 500

Itemized deductions = $ 2500

Non refundable credit = $400

Withheld federal income tax = $5000

We have to calculate the amount of her tax return for year 2020

Taxable income = 54000+500-2500

= $52500

Tax rate 22%

Tax on taxable income = 52500x0.22

= 11550

Minus non refundable credit = 11550-400

Minus federal tax withheld = 11550-400-5000

= $6150

Assume the smart watch industry is a perfectly competitive industry that uses a specialized input. If this industry experiences an increase in demand, we might expect that in the long run: Multiple Choice neither input nor output prices will increase. both input and output prices will increase. only input prices will increase. only output prices will increase.

Answers

Answer:

Option B, both input and output prices will increase

Explanation:

Since the demand far smart watches is increasing, the price of watches will escalate to cater the opportunity cost. With the rising demand for smart watch, the demand for specialized input will also increase. Considering the growth in demand for specialized input, its cost shall also escalate to take the benefit of opportunity. Along with raw material, variable costs such as transportation, manpower, electricity etc.  will also increase both in input (bringing raw material and producing final product) and output (export of the final product)

In nut shell, both the input and output price will increase.

Marcus was offered a job as a senior manager by Super Corp. The offer, which was made over the phone, was for a three-year contract for $120,000 salary per year. Marcus orally accepted, there was no writing. The state in which Marcus was offered the job requires that such contracts be in writing. Marcus quit his current job, which paid $75,000 a year, and headed to the state where Super Corp was headquartered. When he arrived, the director at Super Corp who had originally offered him the job said that they were revoking and that there was no contract, as Marcus never signed an employment agreement. If Marcus sues Super Corp, what is the likely result

Answers

,Answer:

-Marcus is owed something by Super Corp because he relied reasonably and to his detriment on Super Corp's offer.

Explanation:

Employment contracts can be written, oral, or implied and each of these are binding to some extent.

In the given instance it is required that employment should be written in the state where Super Corp operates.

So Marcus will not be able to compel them to give him a job as the offer was made and accepted orally.

However the offer resulted in him quitting his current job, which paid $75,000 a year, and heading to the state where Super Corp was headquartered.

He relied on the offer to his detriment of losing his current job, so Super Corp owes him for the damages incurred

Suppose the United States is currently producing 100tons of hamburgers and 45tons of tacos and Mexico is currently producing 20tons of hamburgers and 25tons of tacos. If the United States and Mexico each specialize in producing only one good​ (the good for which each has a comparative​ advantage), then a total of nothingadditional​ ton(s) of hamburgers can be produced for the two countries combined ​(enter a numeric response using an​ integer)

Answers

Answer: 50 additional tons of hamburgers

Explanation:

United States opportunity costs:

Hamburger opportunity cost = 45/100 = 0.45 tons of tacos

Taco opportunity cost = 100/45 = 2.22 tones of hamburgers

Mexico opportunity cost:

Hamburger opportunity cost = 25/20 = 1.25 tons of tacos

Taco opportunity cost = 20/25 = 0.8 tones of hamburgers

US should specialize in Hamburger production because they have a lower opportunity cost.

If both countries combined production of hamburgers then the total would be:

= 100 + 20

= 120 tons of hamburgers

There is missing information on this question which is the US production of hamburgers when it produces 0 tacos. We shall assume that number to be 170 tons of hamburgers.

The total additional tons produced would be:

= US tons when producing only hamburgers - Combined hamburger production

= 170 - 120

= 50 additional tons of hamburgers

The land would net $10.5 million if it were sold today. The company now wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $21.7 million to build, and the site requires $920,000 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction. What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project

Answers

Answer:

$33,120,000

Explanation:

Calculation for What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project

Using this formula

Proper Cash Flow Amount = (Expected Cost of Selling + Cost of Building Manufacturing Plant + Cost of Grading)

Let plug in the formula

Proper Cash Flow Amount = ($10,500,000 + $21,700,000 + $920,000)

Proper Cash Flow Amount = $33,120,000

Therefore the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project will be $33,120,000

How does he defend the latter position? (See both the Friedman and Sandbu readings)

Answers

Explanation:

Friedman defends the position that companies have a social responsibility to act to maximize profit, in the sense that, the primary function of companies is to generate profit. The author goes against the growing opinions in society that companies must have social responsibility, that is, they need to create a positive and sensitive corporate image to please political and society interests and counter or even soften the words and actions its central purpose, which is profit generation. For him, social responsibility cannot be politicized in order to be an obligation of companies, as it limits freedom and interests arising from the business.

Kilt Company used a predetermined overhead rate of $41 per direct labor hour for the year and estimated that direct labor hours would total 6,100 hours. Assume the only inventory balance is an ending Work in Process balance of $17,700. How much overhead was applied during the year

Answers

Answer:

$205,000

Explanation:

The above is an incomplete question as we were not given actual direct labor hours. From a similar question, I picked 5,000 as the direct labor hours .

With regards to the above information, applied overhead is computed as;

Applied overhead = Overhead rate × Actual direct labor hour

Given that;

Overhead rate = $41

Actual direct labor hour = 5,000

Therefore,

Applied overhead = $41 × 5,000 = $205,000

An Argentinian economist pointed out that the inflation rate based on the PCE(personal consumption expenditures) deflator was higher than the inflation rate you calculated in part (b) based on the GDP deflator. Provide two possible explanations for this difference between the inflation rates calculated from the PCE deflatorversus the GDP deflator.

Answers

Answer:

Note: The complete question is attached as picture below

Year       Nominal GDP   Real GDP

2019             100                    100

2020            105                     99

a) %change in nominal GDP = [(105 - 100) / 100] * 100 = 5%

%change in real GDP = [(99 - 100) / 100] * 100 = -1%

b) GDP deflator is = [Nominal GDP / Real GDP]. %change in GDP deflator = [(106.06 - 100) / 100] * 100 = 6.06%

c) Inflation calculated from GDP deflator and PCE is different because

- GDP deflator does not includes price increase of imported goods while PCE does.

- PCE measures change in price of goods which are generally consumed by consumers while GDP deflator includes all goods produced in an economy.

Lupo Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on the following data: Total machine-hours 31,500 Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 220,500 Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $ 6.00 Recently, Job T687 was completed with the following characteristics: Number of units in the job 10 Total machine-hours 40 Direct materials $ 685 Direct labor cost $ 1,370 If the company marks up its unit product costs by 40% then the selling price for a unit in Job T687 is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

$2575

Explanation:

Total variable overhead estimated=(6*31,500)= $189,000

Hence total overhead estimated=Total variable overhead estimated+Total fixed overhead estimated = $189,000 + $220,500 = $409,500

Hence, predetermined overhead rate = $409,500 / 31,500 = $13 per machine hour  

Hence, total overhead applied=(13*400) = $520

Hence, total job cost=Direct material+Direct labor+Total overhead = $685 + $1,370 + $520 = $2575
