This is an incomplete information
Irving Janis identified eight symptoms of Groupthink: Illusion of Invulnerability, Belief of Inherent Morality of the Group, Collective Rationalization, Out-group Stereotypes, Self-Censorship, Illusion of Unanimity, Direct Pressure on Dissenters, and Self-Appointed Mindguards. You are leading a Decision Making Team and suspect that your team may be suffering from Groupthink. Identify which symptom your team may be displaying.Group of answer choices Self-Appointed Mindguards. Belief in Inherent Morality of the Group. Illusion of Unanimity. Self-Censorship.
The self-appointed mind guards refer to the actions where the company or community members or both secure their group that contains the contradicting views and decisions
here, in the given situation, as a team leader, you dont know the concerns but your team is known about the concerns
So this symptom reflects the self-appointed mind guards
A stock had returns of 17.88 percent, −5.16 percent, and 20.39 percent for the past three years. What is the variance of the returns?
Answer:
Variance of the return = 0.01983
Explanation:
[tex]S^{2}[/tex]= Σ[tex](X-X)^{2}[/tex]/ N - 1
Mean return = 17.88% + -5.16% + 20.39% = 11.0367%
Variance = [(17.88% - 11.0367%)2 + (-5.16% - 11.0367%)2 + (20.39% - 11.0367%)2] /(3 - 1)
Variance = [0.004683 + 0.026233 + 0.008748]/2
Variance = 0.01983
World Class Rings produces class rings. Its best-selling model has a direct materials standard of 16 grams of a special alloy per ring. This special alloy has a standard cost of $63.30 per gram. In the past month, the company purchased 16,800 grams of this alloy at a total cost of $1,061,760. A total of 16,300 grams were used last month to produce 1,000 rings.
Requirements:
1. What is the actual cost per gram of the special alloy that World Class Rings purchased last month? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.) The actual cost per gram of the special alloy that World Class Rings purchased last month is $_____.
2. What is the direct material price variance? (Abbreviations used: DM = Direct materials) Begin by determining the formula for the price variance, then compute the price variance for direct materials.
3.·What is the direct material quantity variance? (Abbreviations used: DM = Direct materials) Determine the formula for the quantity variance, then compute the quantity variance for direct materials.
4. How might the direct material price variance for the company last month be causing the direct material quantity variance?
The_____direct material price variance might mean that World Class Rings purchased a______. As a result, the company______quantity (efficiency) variance alloy than the standard allows. This accounts for the_____quantity (efficiency) variance.
Answer:
1. What is the actual cost per gram of the special alloy that World Class Rings purchased last month? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.) The actual cost per gram of the special alloy that World Class Rings purchased last month is $_____.
= $1,061,760 / 16,800 grams = $63.20 per gram
2. What is the direct material price variance? (Abbreviations used: DM = Direct materials) Begin by determining the formula for the price variance, then compute the price variance for direct materials.
direct materials price variance = (AP - SP) x AQ = ($63.20 - $63.30) x 16,300 = -$1,630 favorable variance
3.·What is the direct material quantity variance? (Abbreviations used: DM = Direct materials) Determine the formula for the quantity variance, then compute the quantity variance for direct materials.
direct materials quantity variance = SP x (AQ - SQ) = $63.30 x (16,300 - 16,000) = $18,990 unfavorable variance
4. How might the direct material price variance for the company last month be causing the direct material quantity variance?
The FAVORABLE direct material price variance might mean that World Class Rings purchased a LOWER QUALITY MATERIAL. As a result, the company USED MORE ALLOW THAN STANDARD quantity (efficiency) variance alloy than the standard allows. This accounts for the UNFAVORABLE quantity (efficiency) variance.
The Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) was developed as a means of scheduling and controlling projects with constant activity times. Group of answer choices False True
Answer: False
Explanation:
The Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is used to know the schedule tasks and also know the critical path variation. It is useful to know the length of time that'll be needed for the completion of every task and how it relates to others in order to know the entire time needed to complete the particular project.
The Project Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is not a means of scheduling and controlling projects with constant activity times. The activity time normally varies.

When gasoline gallons are priced in terms of number of seashells, seashells serve as: Group of answer choices
Answer:
Unit of account
Explanation:
Money serves three functions :
1. Unit of account : money serves the function of determining the value of a good or service. It is usually assumed that goods that are more highly priced are more valuable that goods that have lower prices
2. Medium of exchange : goods and services can be exchanged for money. For example, if I want to buy a gallon of gasoline and pay 4 seashells, money has served as a medium of exchange.
3. store of value: money can be saved, retrieved and exchanged sometimes in the future
Muckenthaler Company sells product 2005WSC for $30 per unit. The cost of one unit of 2005WSC is $27, and the replacement cost is $26. The estimated cost to dispose of a unit is $3, and the normal profit is 40% of selling price. At what amount per unit should product 2005WSC be reported, applying lower-of-cost-or-market
Answer:
The product 2005WSC should be reported at $26 per unit.
Explanation:
The lower-of-cost-or-market (LCM) method is a method of recording the inventory of a company which requires that the inventory cost of the company must recorded at whichever is lower between the inventory's original cost or current market price.
Applying lower-of-cost-or-market, the amount per unit at whcih product 2005WSC should be reported can be determined as follows:
Net realizable value (NRV) = Selling price per unit - Cost of disposal per unit = $30 - $3 = $27
Replacement cost (RC) = $26
NRV - Profit Margin = $27 - ($30 * 40%) = $15
Cost per unit = $27
Note that the market is the middle value of Net realizable value (NRV), $27; Replacement cost (RC), $26; and "NRV - Profit Margin", $15. Since the Replacement cost (RC) of $26 is the middle value, that the market value.
Since the market value of $26 per unit is lower than Cost per unit of $27, by applying lower-of-cost-or-market, the product 2005WSC should be reported at $26 per unit.
A three-year annuity-immediate will be issued a year from now with annual payments of 5,000. Using the forward rates, calculate the present value of this annuity a year from now.
Answer:
13,152.5
Explanation:
Given the the above parameters as mentioned in the question
To calculate the PV (Present Value)
We have PV = 5000 * 1.05 * [ 1/(1.0575)² + 1/(0.625)³ + 1/(1.065)⁴]
PV = 5000 * 1.05 * (0.8942094350 + 0.8337064929 + 0.7773230908) =
=> PV = 5000 * 1.05 * 2.5052390187
= 13,152.50
Therefore, in this case, using the forward rates, the present value of this annuity a year from now is 13,152.50
Suppose Real GDP is $700 billion and Natural Real GDP is $620 billion. To eliminate this ________________gap, Keynesian theory indicates that government should ______________________.
Answer: d. inflationary; decrease government purchases or increase taxes
Explanation:
Suppose Real GDP is $700 billion and Natural Real GDP is $620 billion. To eliminate this inflationary gap, Keynesian theory indicates that government should decrease government purchases or increase taxes.
The Real GDP is greater than the Natural real GDP which is the potential GDP. When that happens the Economy is said to be overheated and producing above its limits as Aggregate Demand is above Aggregate Supply.
To combat this the Government according to Keynes should embark on policy that will reduce economic activity. The Government can use Contractionary Fiscal Policy that will see it reduce its spending and/or increase taxes. Both of these will have the effect of reducing the amount of money in the economy left for both investment and consumption and cause a fall in the Aggregate Demand.
Zhao Co. has fixed costs of $286,200. Its single product sells for $163 per unit, and variable costs are $110 per unit. Compute the level of sales in units needed to produce a target (pretax) income of $106,000.
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 7,400 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $286,200
Selling price= $163 per unit
Unitary variable costs= $110
Desired profit= $106,000
To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the break-even point formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (286,200 + 106,000) / (163 - 110)
Break-even point in units= 7,400 units
The project has been challenging to manage. Everyone has been on edge due to pressure to complete the project on time. Unfortunately, the tension has grown to the point where team meetings have become shouting matches and little work is accomplished during the meetings. One team member asks to be excused from future team meetings, as all the shouting upsets him. Meanwhile, the sponsor has asked to attend team meetings in order to better understand how the project is going and the issues involved in completing the project, and the customer has started discussions about adding scope to the project. In this situation, it would be BEST for the project manager to:
Answer: C. Involve the team in creating ground rules for the meetings.
Explanation:
The meetings have seemingly descended into anarchy and as such needs to be controlled in an orderly manner to make any sort of progress. One way this can be done is through the setting of ground rules. These rules need to be accepted and inclusive of people's qualms or else the arguments will continue.
When the rules are made therefore, the inputs of the entire team should be taken into consideration and this is what the Project manager needs to do. Setting all inclusive rules also helps the team understand each other better during the discussions are point of views will be seen and understood better.
As an initial transaction in a new margin account, a customer sells short 100 shares of ABC at $20 per share. After the customer deposits the appropriate margin, the credit balance in the account will be:
Answer:
$4,000
Explanation:
Regulation T initial margin to short stock is 50% of $2,000 = $1,500 . However, since this is a new account, it must meet the minimum initial margin of $2,000 required to open the account, hence $2,000 must be deposited.
Therefore, the credit balance in the account will be;
= 2,000 + 2,000 ( 100 × $20)
= $4,000

Firm M has a margin of 7%, turnover of 2.0, sales of $910,000, and average stockholders' equity of $490,000. Required: Calculate Firm M’s average total assets, net income, return on investment (ROI), and return on equity (ROE
Answer:
1. Average total asset = $455,000
2. Net income = $63,700
3. Return on investment = 14%
4. Return on equity (ROE) = 13%
Explanation:
These can be calculated as follows:
1. Average total asset
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the Asset turnover ratio as follows:
Asset turnover ratio = Sales / Average total asset ……………………………… (1)
Where;
Turnover = asset turnover ratio = 2
Sales = $910,000
Average total asset = ?
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for average total asset, we have:
2 = $910,000 / Average total asset
Average total asset = $910,000 / 2
Average total asset = $455,000
2. Net income
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating net income margin as follows:
Net income margin = Net income / Sales ……………………………………. (2)
Where,
Margin = Net income margin = 7%, or 0.07
Net income = ?
Sales = $910,000
Substituting the values into equation (2) and solve for net income, we have:
7% = Net income / $910,000
Net income = $910,000 * 7%
Net income = $63,700
3. Return on investment
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the return on investment as follows:
Return on investment = Net income / Average total assets ……………… (3)
Where;
Net income = $63,700
Average total asset = $455,000
Substituting the values into equation (3), we have:
Return on investment = $63,700 / $455,000
Return on investment = 0.14, or 14%
4. Return on equity (ROE)
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the return on equity (ROE) as follows:
Return on equity (ROE) = Net income / Average stockholders' equity…….. (4)
Net income = $63,700
Average stockholders' equity = $490,000
Substituting the values into equation (4), we have:
Return on equity (ROE) = $63,700 / $490,000
Return on equity (ROE) = 0.13, or 13%
Idaho Industries Inc. is considering a project that has an initial aftertax outlay or aftertax cost of $450,000. The respective future cash inflows from its fiveyear project for years 1 through 5 are $95,000 each year. Idaho expects an additional cash flow of $60,000 in the fifth year. The firm uses the IRR method and has a hurdle rate of 10%. Will Idaho accept the project? A. Idaho accepts the project because it has an IRR greater than 10%. B. Idaho accepts the project because it has an IRR greater than 5%. C. Idaho rejects the project because it has an IRR less than 10%. D. There is not enough information to answer this question.
Answer:
c
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested
IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 0 = $-450,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 4 = $95,000
Cash flow in year 5 = $95,000 + $60,000 = $155,000
IRR = 5.62%
Idaho would reject the project because the IRR is less than the hurdle rate
To find the IRR using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

A NASDAQ security is bid at $30.25 and offered at $30.75. An over-the-counter trader effects a trade at $30.75 and charges a commission of $.50 to the customer. The price that will show on the tape is:
Answer:
$30.75
Explanation:
Given that
Security bidding = $30.25
Offered price = $30.75
over the counter trading = $30.75
Commission charged = $0.50
based on the above information, the price that shows on the tape is equivalent to the over the counter trading price i.e $30.75 also it does not include the commission charged i.e $0.50
Hence, the price is $30.75

You can use the discounted cash flow method to estimate the cost of a company’s internal equity when the company ______________. g
Answer:
Pays any amounts of dividends
Explanation:
Which of the following does not represent an outflow of cash and therefore would not be reported on the statement of cash flows as a use of cash?
a. purchase of noncurrent assets
b. purchase of treasury stock
c. discarding an asset that had been fully depreciated.
Answer:
The answer is C.
Explanation:
Discarding an asset that had been fully depreciated is the correct answer. No exchange of cash was involved in this unlike the purchase of non current asset(which is a cash outflow under investing activities) and the purchase of treasury stock (which is a cash outflow under financing activities).
Discarding a fully depreciated asset only is a non cash transaction.
An investor holds a 10 year bond pays a coupon rate of 9%. The yeid to maturity of the bond is 10% . The bond is trading:
Answer:
the bond is trading at a discount
Explanation:
There is an inverse relationship between the yield and the price of the bond.
As the yield goes up, the price of the bond goes down and as the yield goes down, the price of the bond goes up.
The yield - 10%, is greater than the coupon rate - 9%, the price will be less than the par value, and we say that the bond is trading at a discount.
Oriole Company purchased equipment for $41600. Sales tax on the purchase was $2496. Other costs incurred were freight charges of $624, repairs of $364 for damage during installation, and installation costs of $696. What is the cost of the equipment
Answer:
The cost of the equipment is $45,416.
Explanation:
The cost of a newly purchased equipment is the addition of all relevant costs uncured in order to make the equipment ready for use.
The cost of the equipment includes costs such as purchase price, tax paid on the purchase, installation costs, etc.
However, any cost incurred to repair any damage to an equipment during installation is not part of equipment cost. Such repair costs are just ordinary expenses that are charged to the income statement during the period.
Based on the explanation above, the cost of the equipment by Oriole Company can be calculated as follows:
Equipment cost = Purchase price + Sales tax + Freight charges + Installation costs ..................... (1)
Since,
Purchase price = $41,600
Sales tax on the purchase = $2.496.
Freight charges = $624
Installation costs = $696.
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Equipment cost = $41,600 + $2,496 + $624 + $696 = $45,416
Therefore, the cost of the equipment is $45,416.

McKerley Corp. has preferred stock outstanding that will pay an annual dividend of $3.70 per share with the first dividend exactly 14 years from today. If the required return is 3.6 percent, what is the current price of the stock?
Answer:
$64.89
Explanation:
Calculation for the current price of the stock
First step is to find the preference stock value at end of 13 years
Using this formula
P13= Annual dividend/Required return
Let plug in the formula
P13=$3.70/.036
P13= $102.78
The second step is to calculate for the current price of the stock
Using this formula
P0= P13/(1+Required return)^Dividend years
Let plug in the formula
P0= $102.78/(1 + .036)^13
P0=$102.78/(1.036)^13
P0=$102.78/1.5837
P0=$64.89
Therefore the current price of the stock will be $64.89
The internal rate of return method is used to analyze a $831,500 capital investment proposal with annual net cash flows of $250,000 for each of the six years of its useful life. a. Determine a present value factor for an annuity of $1, which can be used in determining the internal rate of return. Carry your answer out to three decimal places.
Answer:
annuity factor for 20% and 6 periods = 3.326
Explanation:
the IRR represents the discount rate at which a project's NPV = 0
NPV = initial outlay + PV of future cash flows
NPV = 0
initial outlay = -$831,500
PV of future cash flows = $831,500 = cash flow x annuity factor
annuity factor = $831,500 / $250,000 = 3.326
using an annuity table and looking for the annuity factors for 6 periods, we find that the annuity factor for 20% and 6 periods = 3.326.
So our IRR = 20%
