Number of setups and number of components are identified as activity-cost drivers for overhead. Assuming an activity based costing system is used, what is the total amount of overhead costs assigned to the standard model?
A. $109,200
B. $57,000
C. $83,000
D. $83,100

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$49,890

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of overhead costs assigned to the standard model is given below

The cost driver rate is

For setup

= $63,600 ÷ (11 + 29)

= 1,590

For component

= $102,600 ÷ (6 + 13)

= 5,400

Now the total amount of overhead for the standard model is

= 11 × 1,590 + 6 × 5,400

= $17,490 + $32,400

= $49,890

I sold a used textbook for $55, even though I was willing to go as low as $47 in order to sell it.
A local store was having a sale on sweaters, so I bought a jersey sweater for my brother.

Answers

Answer:

Consumer surplus

producer surplus

neither

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay – price of the good

The willingness to pay for the watch was $83 but the watch was bought for $75. There is a consumer surplus from the purchase

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product

Producer surplus = price – least price the seller is willing to accept

The least price the seller was willing to accept for the purchase was $47 but he was paid $55 for the textbook. This is a producer surplus

The company plans on distributing $50 million by repurchasing stock. What will the intrinsic per share stock price be immediately after the repurchase?

Answers

Answer:

$50

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the intrinsic per share stock price be immediately after the repurchase

First step

Total Assets=Value of operations of 20,000+ Short term investments of 1000

Total Assets=$21,000

Second step

Equity =Assets - Debt

Equity= $21,000-$6,000

Equity= $15,000

Now let determine the intrinsic per share stock price

Intrinsic per share stock price=$15,000/300

Intrinsic per share stock price=$50

Therefore the Intrinsic value per share will be $50 immediately after the repurchase has occured.

The intrinsic per share stock price immediately after the repurchase would be approximately $166,716.67

How did we get the value?

To determine the intrinsic per share stock price immediately after the repurchase, we need to calculate the new number of shares outstanding after the repurchase and then divide the remaining value of operations by the new number of shares.

Given data:

Value of operations: $20,000

Short-term investments: $1,000

Debt: $6,000

Number of shares: 300

First, we need to calculate the new number of shares outstanding after the repurchase. Since the company plans on distributing $50 million by repurchasing stock, we can use this information to determine the number of shares repurchased.

The value of operations ($20,000) plus the short-term investments ($1,000) minus the debt ($6,000) gives us the total equity value of the company before the repurchase:

Equity value before repurchase = Value of operations + Short-term investments - Debt

= $20,000 + $1,000 - $6,000

= $15,000

Let's assume the repurchased shares are denoted by R.

Now, we can set up an equation to represent the total equity value after the repurchase:

Equity value after repurchase = (Number of shares - R) × Intrinsic per share stock price

Given that the total equity value after the repurchase is $15,000 and the number of shares is 300, we have:

$15,000 = (300 - R) × Intrinsic per share stock price

We also know that the company plans on distributing $50 million by repurchasing stock, so we can set up another equation to represent the total value of the repurchased shares:

Total value of repurchased shares = R × Intrinsic per share stock price

Given that the total value of repurchased shares is $50 million, we have:

$50,000,000 = R × Intrinsic per share stock price

Now we can solve these two equations simultaneously to find the values of R (repurchased shares) and Intrinsic per share stock price.

We have the following system of equations:

$15,000 = (300 - R) × Intrinsic per share stock price ...(1)

$50,000,000 = R × Intrinsic per share stock price ...(2)

Divide equation (2) by Intrinsic per share stock price:

$50,000,000 / Intrinsic per share stock price = R

Substitute this value of R into equation (1):

$15,000 = (300 - ($50,000,000 / Intrinsic per share stock price)) × Intrinsic per share stock price

Simplify:

$15,000 = 300 × Intrinsic per share stock price - (50,000,000 / Intrinsic per share stock price) × Intrinsic per share stock price

$15,000 = 300 × Intrinsic per share stock price - 50,000,000

Rearrange the equation:

300 × Intrinsic per share stock price = $15,000 + $50,000,000

300 × Intrinsic per share stock price = $50,015,000

Intrinsic per share stock price = $50,015,000 / 300

Intrinsic per share stock price = $166,716.67 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the intrinsic per share stock price immediately after the repurchase would be approximately $166,716.67.

A firm sells its product in a perfectly competitive market where other firms charge a price of $110 per unit. The firm estimates its total costs as C(Q) = 70 + 14Q + 2Q2. a. How much output should the firm produce in the short run?

Answers

Answer: 24 units.

Explanation:

Price(P) = 110

C(Q) = 70 + 14Q + 2Q²

The output level will be gotten when price e equals to the marginal cost.

Since C(Q) = 70 + 14Q + 2Q², the marginal cost (MC) will be: 14 + 4Q.

Therefore, P = MC

110 = 14 + 4Q

4Q = 110 - 14

4Q = 96

Q = 96/4

Q = 24

In the short run, the firm will produce 24 units.

Hence, the rate of return on total assets is 63.09%

Assume, for this question only, the following: During the negotiations Juan guaranteed Sarita that the business had turned a profit in each of the past 5 years. Actually, it lost money in each of those years, although Juan did not know that. When Juan made the statement about the business's profitability, however, Sarita was conferring with her attorney and did not hear it. Her friend Harry, who was observing the negotiations, heard Juan's statement. Before long, when Sarita realizes what a bad deal she's made, she laments the fact to Harry. When Harry inquires how a business that had been profitable under Juan was suddenly losing money, Sarita is confused. They finally realize that Harry heard Juan's misstatement about the business's profitability and Sarita did not. Even so, Sarita is thrilled. With Harry as her key witness, she seeks to rescind the sale agreement claiming innocent misrepresentation. Which of the following is true?
A. Rescission, because Juan intended to defraud Sarita.
B. No rescission, because Juan's claims of the business's profitability would not have been material to Sarita if she had heard them.
C. No rescission, because Juan lacked sufficient knowledge of the false nature of his statement and did not intend to trick Sarita.
D. Rescission, because Juan's claims of the business's profitability would have been material to Sarita if she had heard them. E. No rescission, because Sarita did not actually rely on Juan's false statement about the business's profitability.

Answers

Answer:

The true statement about this case is:

D. Rescission, because Juan's claims of the business's profitability would have been material to Sarita if she had heard them.

Explanation:

Though Juan was unaware that the statement was false at the time the contract was signed, the remedy is recession since no damage has been sustained by the other party.  The false statement borders on negligent misrepresentation because Juan was supposed to be aware of the company's profitability by investigating the material fact.  While it is not clear if reliance was placed on the statement when the contract was signed, the fact remains that there was a negligent misrepresentation.

Big Red Motors, Inc., employs 15 personnel to market its line of luxury automobiles. The average car sells for $75,000, and a 6 percent commission is paid to the salesperson. Big Red Motors is considering a change to the commission arrangement where the company would pay each salesperson a salary of $1,600 per mont plus a commission of 2 percent of the sales made by that salesperson. What is the amount of total monthly car sales at whit Big Red Motors would be indifferent as to which plan to select?

Answers

Answer: $600,000

Explanation:

The commission earned per car in the initial arrangement is:

= 6% * Total cars sales

With the second arrangement the amount spent would be:

= Salary of employees + commission

= (15 * 1,600) + (2% * total car sales)

= 24,000 + (2% * car sales)

Assuming total car sales is x, relevant expression is:

6% * x = 24,000 + (2% * x)

0.06x = 24,000 + 0.02x

0.06x - 0.02x = 24,000

0.04x = 24,000

x = 24,000 / 0.04

x = $600,000

A consumer's weekly income is $250, and the consumer buys 12 bars of chocolate per week. When weekly income increases to $280, the consumer buys 13 bars per week. The income elasticity of demand for chocolate by this consumer is about

Answers

Answer:

0.69

Explanation:

Given that we have the formula for calculating income elasticity of demand as the percent change in quantity demanded divided by the percent change in income, hence, we have the percent change in quantity demanded => 13 - 12 = 1 ÷ 12 = 0.083

the percent change in income => 280 - 250 = 30 ÷ 250 = 0.12

Therefore we have => 0.083 ÷ 0.12 = 0.69

Hence, the final answer is 0.69

Number of Beer shares purchased = 5,000

Percentage shareholding in Beer Corporation < 5%

Amount borrowed for the investment = $400,000

Own cash used for the purchase = $100,000

Interest paid on the debt for this year = $50,000 = 12.5%

Cash dividend received for the year = $40,000

Cheers taxable income before dividends = $5 million

The amount of interest deductible = $50,000

b) Since the interest was made for the purpose of the investment in Beers Corporation, the whole amount of interest expense for the year is deductible.

the gap between 'where we are now' and 'where we want to be' is known as the.....​

Answers

Answer:

Planning gap.

Explanation:

Planning can be defined as the process of developing organizational objectives and translating them into action plans or courses of action.

This ultimately implies that, planning is a strategic technique used by organizations to make an aggregate plan for its manufacturing (production) process typically ahead of time, in order to have an idea of the level of goods that are to be produced and what resources are required so as to reduce the total cost of production to its barest minimum.

The planning gap can be defined as the gap between "where we are now?" and "where we want to be?"

Basically, "where are we now?" describe the current situation of things or financial and non-financial activities that a business firm currently holds.

On the other hand, "where we want to be?" is a vision and mission statement that focuses on achieving the goals and objectives set for a business firm.

Haulsee Inc. builds 800,000 golf carts a year and purchases the electronic motors for these carts for $370 each. Ordering costs are $540, and Haulsee's inventory carrying costs average 14% of the inventory value.

What is the economic order quantity (EOQ) for Haulsee?

Answers

Answer:

4,084

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the economic order quantity (EOQ) for Haulsee

Using this formula

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) =((2* Annual Requirement * Cost per order)/Carrying cost per unit)^ (1/2)

Let plug in the formula

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = ((2*800,000*540)/(370*14%))^(1/2)

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = 4,084 units

Therefore the economic order quantity (EOQ) for Haulsee is 4,084 units

MC Qu. 149 Trago Company manufactures... Trago Company manufactures a single product and has a JIT policy that ending inventory must equal 30% of the next month's sales. It estimates that May's ending inventory will consist of 85,500 units. June and July sales are estimated to be 285,000 and 295,000 units, respectively. Trago assigns variable overhead at a rate of $2.30 per unit of production. Fixed overhead equals $405,000 per month. Compute the number of units to be produced and use this amount to compute the total budgeted overhead that would appear on the factory overhead budget for the month of June.

Answers

Answer:

$1067400

Explanation:

The computation of the number of units and factory overhead is given below:

units to be produced in june is  

= ending inventory + sales - beginning inventory

= (30% of 295000) + 285000 - 85500

= 288000 Units

Now  

Overheads budgeted for june

= variable overheads + fixed overheads

= (288000 × 2.3) + 405000

= 662400+405000

= $1067400

Dilts Company has a unit selling price of $400, unit variable costs of $250, and fixed costs of $210,000. Compute the break-even point in units using (a) the mathematical equation and (b) unit contribution margin.

Answers

Answer:

(a) Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation = 1,400 units

(b) Break-even point in units using unit contribution margin = 1,400 units

Explanation:

(a) Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation

Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation = Fixed costs / (Unit selling price - Unit variable costs) …………….. (1)

Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:

Break-even point in units using the mathematical equation = $210,000 / ($400 - $250) = 1,400 units

(b) Break-even point in units using unit contribution margin

Unit contribution margin = Unit selling price - Unit variable costs = $400 - $250 = $150

Therefore, we have:

Break-even point in units using unit contribution margin = Fixed costs / Unit contribution margin = = $210,000 / $50 = 1,400 units

The closer the smoothing constant, ALPHA, is to 0 the greater the reaction to the most recent demand the greater the dampening, or smoothing, effect the more accurate the forecast will be the less accurate the forecast will be

Answers

Answer: the greater the dampening, or smoothing effect

Explanation:

The smoothing constant determines the level at which a forecast is influenced by previous observations. It simply determine the sensitivity of forecasts with regards to the changes in demand.

It should be noted that large values of α will lead to a scenario whereby forecasts will be more responsive to the more recent levels. On the other hand, the smaller values will result in a damping effect. Therefore, the closer the smoothing constant to α, the greater the dampening, or smoothing effect.

Suppose real GDP is forecasted to grow by 1.881.88 %, the velocity of money has been stable, and the Fed announces an inflation target of 2.502.50 %. What is the largest money growth rate the Fed could implement and still achieve its inflation target

Answers

Answer: 4.38%

Explanation:

Use the Quantity Theory of Money to find the growth rat:

MV = PY

ΔMoney supply + ΔVelocity = ΔPrice level + ΔEconomic output or GDP

Velocity is stable so is 0.

ΔMoney supply + 0 = 2.50% + 1.88%

ΔMoney supply = 4.38%

A permanent flood control dam is expected to have an initial cost of $2.8 million and an annual upkeep cost of $20,000. In addition, minor reconstruction will be required every 5 years at a cost of $200,000. As a result of the dam, flood damage will be reduced by an average of $180,000 per year. Using an interest rate of 6% per year, the conventional B/C ratio will be closest to:

Answers

Answer:

0.81

Explanation:

Present Value of annual Maintenance cost = $20,000 / 6% = $333,333.33

In five year time, $200,000  is required as major maintenance cost. So effective rate for 5 year = [(1 + 6%) ^ 5] - 1 = 1.3382 - 1 = 0.3382 = 33.82%. Present Value of 5 year cost = $200,000 / 33.82% = $200,000 / 0.3382 = $591,366.06

Total Present Value cost = $2,800,000 + $333,333.33 + $591,366.06 = $3,724,699.39.

Annual Cost = $3,724,699.39 * 6% = $223,481.96.

Benefit / Cost = $180,000 / $223,481.96

Benefit / Cost = 0.805434138845032

Benefit / Cost = 0.81

So, conventional  B/C ratio is 0.81.

On its December 31, 2017, balance sheet, Calgary Industries reports equipment of $470,000 and accumulated depreciation of $94,000. During 2018, the company plans to purchase additional equipment costing $100,000 and expects depreciation expense of $40,000. Additionally, it plans to dispose of equipment that originally cost $52,000 and had accumulated depreciation of $7,600. The balances for equipment and accumulated depreciation, respectively, on the December 31, 2018 budgeted balance sheet are:

Answers

Answer:

The cost balance on 31 December 2018 is $518,000 while that of accumulated depreciation is $126,400

Explanation:

The balance of fixed assets is computed as

Opening balance - accumulated depreciation - depreciation + Addition - Disposal

Hence given that on December 31, 2017, Calgary Industries reports equipment of $470,000 and accumulated depreciation of $94,000. During 2018, the company plans to purchase additional equipment costing $100,000 and expects depreciation expense of $40,000, Additionally, it plans to dispose of equipment that originally cost $52,000 and had accumulated depreciation of $7,600 the balance then

= $470,000 + $100,000 - $52,000

= $518,000

The accumulated depreciation

= $94,000 + $40,000 - $7,600

= $126,400
