Avery Company has two divisions, Polk and Bishop. Polk produces an item that Bishop could use in its production. Bishop currently is purchasing 26,000 units from an outside supplier for $16 per unit. Polk is currently operating at less than its full capacity of 630,000 units and has variable costs of $9 per unit. The full cost to manufacture the unit is $12. Polk currently sells 460,000 units at a selling price of $18 per unit.
a. What will be the effect on Avery Company’s operating profit if the transfer is made internally?
b. What is the minimum transfer price from Polk’s perspective?
c. What is the maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective?
Answer:
a. The effect is that Avery Company’s operating profit will increase by $182,000 if the transfer is made internally.
b. Minimum transfer price = $9
c. Maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective = $16.
Explanation:
a. What will be the effect on Avery Company’s operating profit if the transfer is made internally?
To determine this, fixed cost is ignored because it considered irrelevant. Therefore, we have:
Profit per unit = Purchase price from outside - Variable cost of production internally = $16 - $9 = $7
Total increment in operating profit = Current purchase unit of Bishop * Profit per unit = 26,000 * $7 = $182,000
Therefore, Avery Company’s operating profit will increase by $182,000 if the transfer is made internally.
b. What is the minimum transfer price from Polk’s perspective?
Since Polk is currently operating at less than its full capacity, this implies that it will not incur additional fixed cost to produce current purchase units of Bishop. Therefore, only its variable cost of $9 will have to recovered. By implication, we have:
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost = $9
c. What is the maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective?
Any price that is higher than $16 at which Bishop is currently purchasing from an outside supplier will result in a loss for Bishop and the increment profit of $182,000 will be lost by Avery Company. This therefore implies that:
Maximum transfer price from Bishop’s perspective = Price at which Bishop is currently purchasing from an outside supplier = $16
Changes in the products for which a nation has a comparative advantage create sectoral shocks leading to an increase in frictional unemployment. a. True b. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
Frictional unemployment is a natural unemployment that results when people enter the labor force for the first time and when people move from one job to another. It is therefore not caused by sectoral shocks and every economy, even the best performing ones, will have frictional unemployment.
The unemployment that results from sectoral shocks is cyclical unemployment. This one is not natural and results from the business cycle and shocks to the economy.

ohn and Lisa form a partnership to operate a restaurant. Lisa signs a two-year lease on a space for the restaurant without consulting John. Under the legal concept of ________, John and the partnership are responsible for this lease, although it was only signed by Lisa.
Answer:
General Partnership
Explanation:
The legal concept of General Partnership obliges two or more signing partners -Lisa and John in this case- to share all assets, all liabilities, and to be responsible for all matters related to the business, regardless of who signs a contract, or contracts new debt, or acquires a new asset, and so on.
So under this legal concept, even if John did not sign the lease, he is still legally responsible for it.

a) Take a real time example of a company of your own choice working in Pakistan and then discuss the factors that lead to pressure for local responsiveness. Discuss it in detail. Draw diagram to show the effect.
Answer:
This responsiveness also promotes the local market orientation of a subsidiary and therefore the strength of its existing network with the businessmen and government authorities.
Explanation:
Usually, firms working within the global market confront two sorts of competitive pressure. They face pressure to scale back costs and pressure to react locally. These competing forces throw a corporation into conflict. It's going to also need a corporation to supply a consistent product on the international market to downstream the experience curve as soon as feasible. In response to local pressures, however, it's necessary for a firm to differentiate its product offering and marketing strategy from one country to a different in an effort to satisfy the various demands arising from domestic consumer preferences, business practices, channels of distribution, competitive conditions and public policies. Because it's going to entail substantial redundancy and a scarcity of product standards to adapt products to varied domestic needs, the result could also be a rise in prices.
While some organizations, like Company A, face a high to scale back cost and low for the reaction of locally, while others, like Company B, face low to scale back costs and high for local reaction, many companies are within the situation of Company C. It suggests and supports three layers of variables, including environmental, structural, and organizational responsiveness. The analysis of 168 MNE companies within the People's Republic of China shows that environmental complexity and therefore the uniqueness of business culture increase local reaction. Structural variables like the intensity of competition, heterogeneity of demand and localisation of components increase local reaction.
Gary Marks is paid on a monthly basis. For the month of January of the current year, he earned a total of $9,138. FICA tax for Social Security is 6.2% on the first $128,400 of earnings each calendar year and the FICA tax for Medicare is 1.45% of all earnings. The FUTA tax rate is 0.6%, and the SUTA tax rate is 5.4%. Both unemployment taxes are applied to the first $7,000 of an employee's pay. The amount of Federal Income Tax withheld from his earnings was $1,516.27. What is the amount of the employer's payroll taxes expenses for this employee
Answer:
$ 1,119.06
Explanation:
It is given that :
Gary Marks total earning = $ 9,138
The social security tax = 6.2%
The Medicare tax = 1.45%
We known, the FUTA and the SUTA must only be applied to the first $7000 earned from Gary's pay.
So, the employer's payroll taxes expenses = Social security + Medicare + FUTA + SUTA
= ($9,138 x 6.2%) + ($9,138 x 1.45%) + ($7000 x 0.6%) + ($7000 x 5.4%)
= 566.56 + 132.5 + 42 + 378
= $ 1,119.06
Therefore, the amount of the employer's payroll taxes expenses is $1,119.06

The expected average rate of return for a proposed investment of $4,250,000 in a fixed asset, using straight-line depreciation, with a useful life of 20 years, no residual value, and an expected total net income of $8,500,000 over the 20 years is:_________ (round to two decimal points).
a. 10.00%
b. 20.00%
c. 40.00%
d. 1.00%
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Average rate of return is a capital budgeting method. It is used to determine if a firm should invest in a project or should not invest in a project
average rate of return = average net income / average cost of investment
average net income = (total net income - depreciation) / useful life
(8,500,000 - $4,250,000) / 20 = 212,500
Average cost of investment =( beginning book value of the investment - ending book value of the investment) / 2
($4,250,000 - 0) / 2 = 2,125,000
ARR = 212,500 / 2125,000 = 0.1 = 10%

Assume General Electric (GE) has about 10.3 billion shares outstanding and the stock price is $37.10. Calculate the market value for GE. (Approximately)
Answer: $382 billion
Explanation:
The market capitalization refers to the total market value of the equity of a firm and this is calculated as the firm's stock market price multiplied by the number of shares that's outstanding. This will be:
= 10.3 billion × $37.10
= $382 billion
Therefore, the market value for GE is $382 billion.
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:

Recently. Job T687 was completed with the following characteristics:
Number of units in the job 10
Total machine-hours
Direct materials
Direct labor cost $ 580 $1,160
The total job cost for Job T687 is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculation to 2 decimal places)
Answer:
$1960
Explanation:
The computation of the total cost is shown below:
Total variable overhead estimated is
= (4 × 31400)
= $125600
Now
total overhead estimated is
= Total variable overhead estimated + Total fixed overhead estimated
= $125600 + 219800
= $345400
Now predetermined overhead rate is
= $345400 ÷ 31400
= $11 per machine hour
Now total overhead applied is
= (11 × 20)
= $220
So, total job cost is
= Direct material + Direct labor + Total overhead
= (580+1160+220)
= $1960

For organizations cost up to $50,000, there'll be a deduction of $5000. The remaining non deductible expense will then be spread out for 180 months. Here, the non deductible cost will be:
= ($13200 + $7100) - $5000
= $20300 - $5000
= $15300
The capitalized cost will then be:
= $15300 / 180
= $85 per month.
Since there's an ammortization of 6 months from July, then the capitalized cost will be:
= $85 × 6
= $510
Therefore, the amount that should be deducted on its first tax return will be:
= $5000 + $510
= $5510

The fund has 49,000 shares and liabilities of $124,000. Assume the fund is sold with a front-end load of 2.5 percent. What is the offering price of the fund
Answer: $49.81
Explanation:
The offering price is calculated as:
= NAV per share / (100 - front-end load)
NAV per share = (Value - liabilities) / Number of shares
= [ ( 12,000 * 86) + (32,000 * 15) + (3,500 * 69) + (75,000 * 10) - 124,000] / 49,000 mutual fund shares
= 2,379,500 / 49,000
= $48.56
Offering price = 48.56 / (100 - 2.5%)
= $49.81

Sayid is the sole shareholder of an S corporation in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. At a time when his stock basis is $20,000, the corporation distributes appreciated property worth $40,000 (basis of $20,000). There is no built-in gain. Sayid's taxable gain is:
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
The computation of the taxable gain is shown below:
The corporate gain is
= $40,000 - $20,000
= $20,000
Now the stock basis is increased i.e.
= $20,000 + $20,000
= $40.000
Now the stock basis decreased to zero i.e.
= $40,000 - $40,000
= $0
So, here the taxable gain is of $20,000
