Select all statements that correctly describe business rules.
A. Some business rules allow the designer to understand the nature, role, and scope of the data.
B. Business rules define all applicable database constraints, no matter how detailed the constraint is.
C. Some business rules act as a communications tool between users and designers.
D. Some business rules help standardize an organization's view of data.
E. Business rules are by definition valid for all data for all time, so they are well suited for database design.
Answer:
The correct options are A, C, and D.
Explanation:
Business rules are helpful to all types of organizations, as they classify an organization's objective, they are a guide that specifies the running of business everyday activities as they clearly show every detail. Business rules provide the best approach to business operations. Business rules allow the designer to know the scope of the data, as the designer would get to know the data stored in the database. From the question above, It is also true that some business rules act as a communications tool between users and designers, as the users get to have an understanding of what is needed, and the designers would also get to know their own role. Business rules must be simplified for everyone in an organization so the rules could be interpreted by everyone, and be followed too.

Suppose that Dmitri, an economist from a research institute in Texas, and Frances, an economist from a public television program, are arguing over saving incentives. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate: Frances: I think it's safe to say that, in general, the savings rate of households in today's economy is much lower than it really needs to be to sustain an improvement in living standards. Dmitri: I think a switch from the income tax to a consumption tax would bring growth in living standards. Frances: You really think households would change their saving behavior enough in response to this to make a difference.Because I don't. The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to _____. Depite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree? A. Employers should not be restricted from outsourcing work to foreign nations. B. Central banks should focus more on maintaining low unemployment than on maintaining low inflation. C. Business managers can raise profit more easily by reducing costs than by raising revenue.
Answer:
Difference in scientific judgementsA. Employers should not be restricted from outsourcing work to foreign nations.Explanation:
The difference in opinion between these two is based on a difference between in scientific judgments because they believe that different things will happen in response to implementing a different form of taxes.
Regardless of what they think in the above regard, these economists are most likely to support the outsourcing of work if it is cheaper to do so because economists generally believe that the most efficient method of production should be undertaken.
Of the following statements, which best describes a legitimate disadvantage of cost-based pricing:

Apply the Seasonal Forecast Using Simple Proportion method to calculate a forecast for product X for the first quarter of the next year. The expected total sales for product X is 14800 for the next year.
Quarter Average seasonal factor
1 0.70
2 0.46
3 1.73
4 1.11
a. More than 0 but less than or equal to 1500
b. More than 1500 but less than or equal to 2000
c. More than 2000 but less than or equal to 2500
d. More than 2500 but less than or equal to 3000
e. More than 3000
Answer:
d.
Explanation:
From the given information;
the quarter average sale = expected total sales ÷ number of quarter
= 14800 ÷ 4
= 3700
The forecast for the first quarter = average quarter sale × seasonal factor
= 3700 × 0.70
= 2590
Thus, the expected sales is more than 2500 but lesser than 3000
An investment that costs $28,000 will produce annual cash flows of $5,600 for a period of 6 years. Further, the investment has an expected salvage value of $3,300. Given a desired rate of return of 10%, what will the investment generate?
Answer:
-1764
Explanation:
Given the cost of investment = $28000
Annual cash flow = $5600
Time period = 6 years
Salvage value = $3300
Interest rate = 10%
Net gain from the investment and its present value = Annuity (P/A, r, n) + Salvage value (P/F, r, n) - investment
= 5600 (P/A, 10%, 6) + 3300 (P/F, 10%, 6) - 28000
= 5600 x 4.355 + 3300 x 0.56 - 28000
= -1764
Sauer Food Company has decided to buy a new computer system with an expected life of three years. The cost is $300,000. The company can borrow $300,000 for three years at 12 percent annual interest or for one year at 10 percent annual interest. Assume interest is paid in full at the end of each year.
Required:
a. How much would Sauer Food Company save in interest over the three-year life of the computer system if the one-year loan is utilized and the loan is rolled over (reborrowed) each year at the same 8 percent rate?
b. Compare this to the 10 percent three-year loan. What if interest rates on the 8 percent loan go up to 13 percent in year 2 and 18 percent in year 3?
c. What would the total interest cost compared to the 10 percent, three-year loan?
Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information;
Suppose the interest rate is constant. then at 10% three-year loan;
The total interest at 10% will be:
= $300000 × 10% × 3years
= $90000
Aso, 8% one year loan with rollover will be total interest at 8%:
= $300000 × 8% × 3 years
= $72000
Savings in interest of Sauer Food Company = $(90000 - 72000)
= $18000
Suppose short-term rates change, then for the first year, we will have:
= 300000 × 0.1
= $30000
second year will be = 300000 × 0.13
=$39000
third year will be= 300000 × 0.18
=$54000
As such, the total rate of the variable loan = $30000 + $39000 + $54000
= $123000
However, the fixed rate at 10% three year loan is equal to = $90000
As such, the additional total interest cost = $(123000 - 90000)
= $33000
Which of the following statements describes the typical effect of creating a large number of refined activity cost pools for a given costing application?1) A complex ABC system with numerous cost pools provides substantial costimprovement over a smaller system with only seven to ten cost pools.2) A system containing a large number of cost pools will not tend to exhibitsubstantial cost accuracy over a system containing seven to ten cost pools.3) With the aid of a computer, every public company should strive to develop as many cost pools as possible because there is virtually no disadvantage of so doing.4) Employees normally develop a deep appreciation for the complexity of a large, tedious ABC system.
Answer:
Hence the correct option is Option (2).
Explanation:
The correct option is (2) A system containing a large number of cost pools will not tend to exhibit substantial cost accuracy over a system containing seven to ten cost pools.
Francisco leased equipment from Julio on December 31, 2021. The lease is a 10-year lease with annual payments of $159,000 due on December 31 of each year beginning December 31, 2021. The present value of the lease payments is $1,006,192. Francisco's incremental borrowing rate is 14% for this type of lease. The implicit rate of 12% is known by the lessee. What should be the balance in Francisco lease liability at December 31, 2022
Answer: $789855
Explanation:
Initial liability = $1,006,192
Less: Payment = $159,000
Liability = $847192
× Implicit rate 12%
Interest = 12% × $847192 = $101663
Then, reduced balance will be:
= Payment - Interest
= $159,000 - $101663
= $57337
Therefore, Francisco lease liability at December 31, 2022 will be:
= $847192 - $57337
= $789855
The data is D = 50,000/year, S= $500 per order, H = $0.25 per unit per year. Assume a lead time of 3 days.
Fill in the following table. Write out the formulas you are using.
Annual demand
Holding cost (units per year)
Ordering cost
Ordering quantity (EOQ)
Number of orders per year
Average inventory
Maximum inventory
Reorder level
Length of order cycle
Annual holding cost
Annual ordering cost
Annual Affected Inventory Cost
b. Suppose a mistake was made in the data and the correct data is D = 60,000 per year, S = $400 per order, H = $0.20 per unit per year. Calculate the correct EOQ and affected inventory cost.
c. Now suppose we used the incorrect EOQ (based on the first set of data) instead of the correct EOQ. Calculate the affected inventory cost.
d. Compute the percentage error in the EOQ and in the inventory cost.
e. Moral of the story is that incorrect estimation of costs or demand (does or does not) result in substantial deviation from the optimal cost (circle the right answer).
Answer:
Annual demand 50,000 units
Holding cost $0.25 per year
Ordering Cost $500 per order
EOQ : 14,142
Number of orders per year 4
Average inventory 14,142 units
Maximum inventory 14,500 units
Reorder level 410 units
Length of order cycle 3 days
Annual Holding cost $12,500
Annual ordering cost $2000
Annual affected inventory cost $14,500
Explanation:
EOQ = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2 * D * S}{H} }[/tex]
EOQ = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2 * 50000 * 500}{0.25} }[/tex]
EOQ = 14,142 units
Number of Order : Annual demand / EOQ
Number of order : 50,000 / 14,142 = 3.53 or approximately 4
Annual Ordering cost : No. of order * cost per order
Annual ordering cost : 4 * $500 = $2,000
Annual Holding Cost : Demand * Holding cost per unit
Annual holding cost = 50,000 * $0.25 per unit = $12,500
Reorder level : Daily demand * lead time
Reorder level : [ 50000 / 365 ] * 3 = 410 units
g Determine the amount to be added to Allowance for Doubtful Accounts in each of the following cases and indicate the ending balance in each case. a. Credit balance of $370 in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts just prior to adjustment. Using the aging method, the balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is estimated as
Answer:
Missing word "is estimated as $8,820. Amount added Ending balance b. Credit balance of $450 in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts just prior to adjustment. Bad debt expense is estimated at 2% of credit sales, which totaled $1,111,000 for the year. Amount added Ending balance"
a. Amount added = Balance as per aging method - Credit balance
Amount added = $8,820 - $370
Amount added = $8,450
So, Amount added = $8,450, Ending balance = $8,820
b. Amount added = 2% * Credit sale
Amount added = 2% * $1,111,000
Amount added = $22,220
Ending balance = $22,220 + $370
Ending balance = $21,850
Culler Construction Company agreed with the City of Orange Key to build a road. The project was to begin on December 1. One week after the work began, a hurricane struck the site, washing away so much land that the construction would be twice as expensive. As a result, Culler refused to continue the job, unless Orange Key paid a large sum in addition to the initial contract price. A promise by Orange Key to pay more than the original price is:_______
Answer: D. Enforceable because Culler encountered unforeseen difficulties.
Explanation:
Contractual obligations can be changed if one or both parties encounter unforeseen circumstances that would significantly alter their ability to fulfil their part of the contract.
In this scenario, Culler Construction would incur a significantly higher cost to carry out their side of the contract than what was agreed. The contract can therefore be changed and this change would be enforceable by law. The higher offer by Orange Key is therefore legal and enforceable.

ABC and XYZ are all-equity firms. ABC has 1,750 shares outstanding at a market price of $20 a share while XYZ has 2,500 shares outstanding at a price of $28 a share. ABC is acquiring XYZ for $75,000 in cash. The incremental value of the acquisition is $8,000. What is the net present value of acquiring XYZ to ABC
Answer:
the net present value is -$32,000
Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is shown below;
= (Number of oustanding shares × market price per share) + incremental value of acquisition - acquiring value in cash
= (1,750 × $20) + $8,000 - $75,000
= $43,000 - $75,000
= -$32,000
Hence, the net present value is -$32,000
Complete the following data taken from the condensed income statements for merchandising Companies X, Y, and Z. For those boxes in which you must enter negative numbers use a minus sign.
Company X Company Y Company Z
Net income/(net loss) $30 $_____ $(20)
Sales _____ 1,270 970
Gross profit 245 _____ 525
Operating expenses _____ 525 _____
Cost of goods sold 330 790 _____
Answer:
Company X:
Sales :
= Gross Profit + Cost of goods sold
= 245 + 330
= $575
Operating expenses:
= Gross profit - Net income
= 245 - 30
= $215
Company Y
Gross profit:
= Sales - Cost of goods sold
= 1,270 - 790
= $480
Net income:
= Gross profit - Operating expenses
= 480 - 525
= $(45)
Company Z
Operating expenses :
= Gross profit - Net income
= 525 - (-20)
= 525 + 20
= $545
Cost of goods sold:
= Sales - Gross profit
= 970 - 525
= $445

Snack food vendors and beer distributors earn some monopoly profits in their local markets but see them slowly erode from various new substitutes. When California voted on legalizing marijuana, which side would you think that California beer distributors were on
Answer: Opposing side
Explanation:
Substitutes to the products offered by monopolies are frowned upon by monopolies because it means that they cannot raise prices whenever they want anymore because people could simply switch to the substitutes.
Substitutes therefore reduce the power of monopolies. Marijuana is a substitute to beer as a recreational product so beer companies would be opposed to it being legalized as it would pose a threat to whatever dominance they have in the recreational sector.
US Corp. is charged with determining which small projects should be funded. Along with this assignment, she has been granted the use of $15,000 for a maximum of two years. She is considering three projects. Project A costs $7,500 and has cash flows of $4,000 a year for Years 1 to 3. Project B costs $8,000 and has cash flows of $3,000, $4,000, and $3,000 for Years 1 to 3, respectively. Project C costs $2,000 and has a cash inflow of $2,500 in Year 2. What decisions should she make regarding these projects if she assigns them a mandatory discount rate of 8.5 percent
Answer:
Project A and C given a budgetary constraint of $15,000.Pick all projects if there was not constraint as they all have positive NPVs.Explanation:
Find the NPVs of the various projects.
Project A:
= Present value of inflows - Cost
= 4,000 / 1.085 + 4,000 / 1.085² + 4,000 / 1.085³ - 7,500
= $2,716.09
Project B:
= 3,000 / 1.085 + 4,000 / 1.085² + 3,000 / 1.085³ - 8,000
= $511.52
Project C:
= 2,500 / 1.085² - 2,000
= $123.64
Seeing as she has only $15,000 to embark on projects, she should pick projects A and C.
Project A should be picked because it has the highest NPV and Project C should be picked because it can still be invested in after Project A given budgetary constraints.

Answer:
D. regulate the money supply.
Explanation:
The Federal Reserve System (popularly referred to as the 'Fed') was created by the Federal Reserve Act, passed by the U.S Congress on the 23rd of December, 1913. The Fed began operations in 1914 and just like all central banks, the Federal Reserve is a United States government agency.
Generally, it comprises of twelve (12) Federal Reserve Bank regionally across the United States of America, which are commonly referred to as Federal Reserve District Bank.
Like all central banks, the Federal Reserve is a government agency that is saddled with the following responsibilities;
I. The Fed controls the issuance of currency in United States of America: it promotes public goals such as economic growth, low inflation, and the smooth operation of financial markets.
II. It provides banking services to all the commercial banks in the country because the Federal Reserve is the "lender of last resort."
III. It regulates banking activities in the United States of America: it has the power to supervise and regulate banks.
Additionally, the Fed is saddled with the responsibility of selling government securities such as treasury bills to the public.
However, the most important function of the Fed is to regulate the money supply through the establishment of monetary policies.
Monetary policy can be defined as the actions (macroeconomic policies) adopted and undertaken by the central bank of a particular country to control the money supply and interest rates so as to boost or enhance economic growth. The central bank (Fed) uses monetary policies to manage inflation, economic growth through long-term interest rates and level of unemployment in a country.
Bloom Company management predicts that it will incur fixed costs of $266,000 and earn pretax income of $360,400 in the next period. Its expected contribution margin ratio is 54%. Required: 1. Compute the amount of total dollar sales. 2. Compute the amount of total variable costs.
Answer:
1. $1,160,000
2. $534,600
Explanation:
1. Computation for the amount of total dollar sales
Using this formula
Total dollar sales=Fixed costs plus pretax income / Contribution margin ratio
Let plug in the formula
Total dollar sales=$626,400 / 54%
Total dollar sales =$1,160,000
($266,000+$360,400=$626,400)
Therefore the amount of total dollar sales is $1,160,000
2.Computation for the amount of total variable costs.
Sales $1,160,000
Less:
Fixed costs ($265,000)
Pretax income ($360,400)
Variable costs $534,600
Therefore the amount of total variable costs is $534,600
