Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Landscape lawns produce positive externality.

B. Sports vehicle generates a positive externality

C. Walk to work creates positive externality.

D. Cigarettes create a negative externality.

Explanation:

Positive externality occurs when society gets benefit from a persons act. Susan has created lawns near her house and there are beautiful flowers in the lawn. This will be relaxing for those who pass near by the lawns. There will be fresh air coming from the lawn and society will look pleasant.

Negative externality is one in which society is harmed by the act of a person. This happens when Anita smokes at a bus stop. There are other travelers who will be present at the bus stop might be harmed from the smoke which arises from the cigarette.

a. $54,731.69
b. $59,314.62
c. $65,731.09
d. $98,857.71

Answers

Answer:

Monthly payment= $59,314.62

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Loan= $9,000,000

Number of periods (n)= 25*12= 300 months

Interest rate= 0.0624/12= 0.0052

To calculate the monthly payment, we need to use the following formula:

Monthly payment= (PV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]

Monthly payment= (9,000,000*0.0052) / [1 - (1.0052^-300)]

Monthly payment= $59,314.62

The remaining useful life of the plant asset is

Answers

Answer:

useful life= 12 years

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $140,000

Salvage value= $20,000

Annual depreciation= $10,000

To calculate the useful life, we need to use the straight-line method formula:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

10,000= (140,00 - 20,000) / useful life

10,000useful life = 120,000

useful life= 120,000 / 10,000

useful life= 12 years

Coffee Klatch is an espresso stand in a downtown office building. The average selling price of a cup of coffee is $1.49 and the average variable expense per cup is $0.24. The average fixed expense per month is $1,600. An average of 2,100 cups are sold each month. What is the CM Ratio for Coffee Klatch?

Answers

Answer:

The contribution margin ratio for Coffee Klatch is 83%.

Explanation:

Given that Coffee Klatch is an espresso stand in a downtown office building, and the average selling price of a cup of coffee is $ 1.49 and the average variable expense per cup is $ 0.24, and the average fixed expense per month is $ 1,600, to determine what is the CM Ratio for Coffee Klatch if an average of 2,100 cups are sold each month, the following calculation must be performed:

Contribution margin ratio: (sales - variable costs) / sales

((2,100 x 1.49) - (2,100 x 0.24)) / (2,100 x 1.49) = X

(3.129 - 504) / 3.129 = X

2.625 / 3.129 = X

0.83 = X

Thus, the contribution margin ratio for Coffee Klatch is 83%.

You decide to discount a $5,250, 345-day note at 3% to your bank at a discount rate of 4.5% on day 210. What are your proceeds

Answers

Answer: $5309.86

Explanation:

The proceeds will be calculated as:

Face value of note = $5250

Interest rate = 3%

Note tenure = 345

Number of days used = 360

Outstanding interest on note = $5250 × 3% × 345/360 = $150.94

Gross Proceeds = $5250 + $150.94 = $5400.94

Bank Discount rate = 4.5%

Discounting days = 210

Time if maturity left = 345 - 210 = 135

Discount rate for 135 days = 4.5%/360 × 135 = 1.69%

Discount value = $5400 × 1.69% = $91.14

Net proceeds after discount = $5400 - $91.14 = $5309.86

Coffee Klatch is an espresso stand in a downtown office building. The average selling price of a cup of coffee is $1.49 and the average variable expense per cup is $0.36. The average fixed expense per month is $1,300. Use the formula method to determine how many cups of coffee would have to be sold to attain target profits of $3,000 per month.

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The formula method is denoted by

Unit sales to attain the targeted profit =( Target profit + Fixed expenses) / Contribution margin per unit

Target profit = $3,000 per month

Fixed expenses = $1,300

Contribution margin per unit = $1.49 - $0.36 = $1.13

Therefore, unit sales to attain targeted profit = ($3,000 + $1,300) / $1.13 = 3,805.31 units

It means that 3,805.31 cup of coffee would have to be sold to attain target profit of $3,000 per month.

A) Cost of the ending inventory LIFO.
B) Cost of the ending inventory.

Answers

Answer:

1. $247,00

A. $2,720

B.$2,220

Explanation:

1. Calculation to determine What amount should Stallman report as its December 31 inventory

Using this formula

December 31 Ending inventory = Inventory count as per physical count + Inventory in transit FOB Shipping point + Inventory in transit FOB destination

Let plug in the formula

December 31 Ending inventory= $200,000 + $25,000+ $22,000

December 31 Ending inventory= $247,000

Therefore What amount should Stallman report as its December 31 inventory is $247,000

A) Calculation to determine the Cost of the ending inventory FIFO.

Cost of ending inventory = (200 units * $8) +(360 units- 200 units * $7)

Cost of ending inventory = (200 units * $8) + (160 units * $7)

Cost of ending inventory= $1,600 + $1,120

Cost of ending inventory= $2,720

Therefore The Cost of ending inventory is $2,720

(b) Calculation to determine The cost of ending inventory under the LIFO method

Cost of ending inventory = (300 units * $6) +(360 units -300 units* $ 7)

Cost of ending inventory = (300 units * $6) + (60 units * $ 7)

Cost of ending inventory = $1,800 + $420

Cost of ending inventory = $2,220

Therefore The cost of ending inventory under the LIFO method will be $2,220

Suppose that Nevada Co., a US-based MNC, makes regular, monthly purchases of materials from a German supplier named Spicurity. These regular payments are typically in the amount of 300,000 euros. Last month the exchange rate was $1.93 per euro. Nevada Co. only has cash reserves in dollars, while Spicurity only has cash reserves in euros. Suppose both companies use the same bank.
In order to conduct this transaction last month, Nevada Co.
Required:
a. $_____ to pay for the materials. Thus, the bank handling the transaction reduced Nevada’s account by this amount, denominated in
b. __________( euros OR dollars). The bank then converted this amount to c. ___________ d. ________________( euros OR dollars). and credited it to Spicurity’s account.

Answer:

In order to conduct this transaction last month, Nevada Co.

Required:

a. $_579,000____ to pay for the materials. Thus, the bank handling the transaction reduced Nevada’s account by this amount, denominated in

b. __dollars___( euros OR dollars). The bank then converted this amount to c. ___euros________ from d. ______dollars_____( euros OR dollars). and credited it to Spicurity’s account.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Importer = Nevada Co., a US-based MNC

Exporter = Spicurity, a German supplier

Amount of regular payments = 300,000 euros

Exchange rate = $1.93 per euro

Amount in dollars = $579,000 (300,000 euros * $1.93)

b) To convert to dollars from euro, when the exchange rate is $1.93 per euro, we multiply the euro-based amount by the exchange rate.  To convert the dollars to the euro, we divide by the exchange rate.  To multiply or divide depends on which currency has a higher value (e.g. euro vs dollars).

SUV Company is considering producing a line of luxury SUVs. Currently, SUV Company sells 4,200 standard SUVs annually for $45,400 each. They expect that they would sell 5,600 luxury SUVs for $80,500. If SUV Company produces the line of luxury SUVs, then they expect to only sell 3,300 standard SUVs. What is the incremental revenue generated from the potential project

Answers

Answer:

SUV Company

The incremental revenue generated from the potential project is:

= $409,940,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Selling price of Standard SUVs = $45,400

Number of Standard SUVs sold annually = 4,200

Luxury SUVs' price per unit = $80,500

Number of Luxury SUVs expected to be sold = 5,600

Reduced number of Standard SUVs sold as a result = 3,300

Lost sales of Standard SUVs = 900 (4,200 - 3,300)

The incremental revenue generated from the potential project is:

Sale revenue from Luxury SUVs = $450,800,000 ($80,500 * 5,600)

Lost revenue from lost sale of

 Standard SUVs =                                40,860,000 ($45,400 * 900)

Incremental revenue generated = $409,940,000

b) The incremental revenue is the additional revenue generated from the introduction of the Luxury SUVs, excluding the lost revenue from the non-sale of Standard SUVs as a result of the introduction.

Which statement concerning the kinked demand curve model of oligopoly is false? The portion of the demand curve above the "kink" is more elastic than the portion below. The firm's marginal costs can sometimes shift without changing the profit-maximizing price and output. It assumes when one oligopolist raises the price, all others will follow. It addresses the question of price "stickiness."

Answers

Answer: It assumes when one oligopolist raises the price, all others will follow

Explanation:

An oligopoly is a form of market where there are dominated by few group of large sellers.

A kinked demand curve simply happens when the elasticity is not thesame for the lower and higher prices and the demand curve isn't a straight line.

It simply suggests that there are rigid prices and assumes when one oligopolist raises the price, all others will follow.

Bonita Industries uses the periodic inventory system. For the current month, the beginning inventory consisted of 481 units that cost $60 each. During the month, the company made two purchases: 719 units at $63 each and 361 units at $65 each. Bonita Industries also sold 1203 units during the month. Using the average cost method, what is the amount of ending inventory

Answers

Answer:

$22,389

Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory is shown below:

But before that the average cost per unit and the ending units should be determined

The average cost per unit is

= (481 units × $60 + 719 units × $63 + 361 units × $65) ÷ (481 units + 719 units + 361 units)

= ($28,860 + $45,297 + $23,465)  ÷ (1,561 units)

= $62.54

Now the ending inventory units is

= 1,561 units - 1,203 units

= 358 units

Now finally the ending inventory is

= 358 units × $62.54

= $22,389

Black Bear Auto Company incurred $120,000 of indirect advertising costs for its operations. The following 2017 data have been collected for its three departments: New Cars Used Cars Parts and Service Direct advertising costs $30,000 $24,000 $6,000 Newspaper ad space 60% 30% 10% Sales $250,000 $200,000 $50,000 Required: Determine the costs allocated to each department using the following allocation bases: a. Direct advertising costs b. Newspaper ad space c. Sales

Answers

Answer:

a. Allocating cost using direct advertising costs

We have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000

b. Allocating cost using Newspaper ad space

We have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = $72,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = $36,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000

c. Allocating cost using Sales

We have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000

Explanation:

Given:

                                           New Cars         Used Cars       Parts and Service

Direct advertising costs     $30,000            $24,000                $6,000

Newspaper ad space               60%                  30%                       10%

Sales                                   $250,000          $200,000            $50,000

The costs allocated to each department can now be calculated as follows:

a. Allocating cost using direct advertising costs

The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:

Cost allocated to a department = (Direct advertising costs of the department  / Sum of direct advertising costs of the 3 departments) * Indirect advertising costs ................... (1)

Using equation (1), we have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = ($30,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = ($24,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = ($6,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $12,000

b. Allocating cost using Newspaper ad space

The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:

Cost allocated to a department = Percentage of  Newspaper ad space of the department * Indirect advertising costs ................... (2)

Using equation (2), we have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = 60% * $120,000 = $72,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = 30% * $120,000 = $36,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = 10% * $120,000 = $12,000

c. Allocating cost using Sales

The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:

Cost allocated to a department = (Sales of the department  / Sum of Sales of the 3 departments) * Indirect advertising costs ................... (3)

Using equation (3), we have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = ($250,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000 = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = ($200,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000  * $120,000 = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = ($50,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000  * $120,000 = $12,000

The Friendly Sausage Factory (FSF) can produce hot dogs at a rate of 5,000 per day. FSF supplies hot dogs to local restaurants at a steady rate of 250 per day. The cost to prepare the equipment for producing hot dogs is $66. Annual holding costs are 45 cents per hot dog. The factory operates 300 days a year. Find

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The remainder of the question:

a). The optimal run size

b) The number of runs per year

c) The length (in days) of a run.

From the question,

p = 5000

u = 250 hotdogs per day

D = 250 × 300 = 75000 hotdogs/year

S = $66

H = 45 cents = $0.45

a. The optimal run size

= (✓2DS/✓H)(✓p/✓-✓u)

= (✓2×75000×66/✓0.45)(✓5000/✓4750)

= 4812

b) The number of runs per year

This will be:

= D/Q

= 75000/4812

= 15.59

= 16 runs per year

c) The length (in days) of a run.

This'll be:

= 4812/5000

= 0.96

= 1 day

8. A relatively small grocery store chain operates 35 stores in three New England states. Recently, the organization has been facing intensified competition from resource-rich dominant players like Kroger and Walmart, new players with innovative services like Amazon, and new low-cost leaders like Aldi. This small chain is seeing declining sales because it cannot offer consumers the same or better products, services, or prices as any of these competitors. Which type of interorganizational relationship does this describe

Answers

Answer:

- Population ecology.

Explanation:

'Population ecology' is characterized as the kind of inter-organizational association in which asserts that the dynamic changes takes places in the level of population as an outcome of the selection of their organization and its failure to replace with the evolution/change in the environment. As per Hannan & Freeman's theory of organizational ecology, an organization(like the grocery store in the given situation) faces decline in sales due to their selection of the orgnaization as the structural inertia of the orgnaization does not allow it to adapt the environmental changes and the changes in demands of the population.

The failure rate for each component of a 2-component series system is assumed to be one failure per 1,000 hours of operation, and the switch reliability of replacing a failed component with a spare one is 1.0. Given that there is a spare component, a. Calculate the reliability of the system for a period of 1,000 hours assuming no other failure is possible. b. Determine the approximate MTBF of the system. c. What is the system MTBF without the spare component

Answers

Answer:

a. The reliability of the system for a period of 1,000 hours, assuming no other failure is possible is:

= 99.9%.

b. The approximate MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) without the spare component is:

1,000 hours.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations;

Failure rate of each component of a 2-component series system = 1/1,000 = 0.001

Therefore, the reliability rate = 1 - 0.001 = 0.999 = 99.9%

The switch reliability of replacing a failed component with a spare one = 1.0

The system's reliability = Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) minus the Mean Time to Repair (MTTR)

= 1,000 - 1.0 = 999 hours out of 1,000

b)The equipment's Mean time between failures (MTBF) is the average time it takes the equipment or system to suffer a breakdown.  Engineers, vendors, and system analysts use the MTBF metric to measure an equipment's performance, safety, and design reliability.

You are a seller of farm equipment. Sidney Lanier puts in an order for a new combine harvester, which costs $425,000. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Lanier has to forward you a certified check for 25% of the purchase price within 15 days of the signing of the purchase agreement. Meanwhile you are preparing the combine harvester for shipment to Sidney Lanier's farm.
On the 15th day, you do not receive a check from Mr. Lanier. You do not receive a check on the 16th, 17th, or 18th day either. Meanwhile, another farmer has come into your office to ask about buying the combine harvester.
What can you do in this situation?
A. Since you and Mr. Lanier have a contract, you have to wait until he sends you the check before you can do anything.
B. Mr. Lanier had a duty to send you a check by the 15th. He's breached that duty under the contract, and it appears to be a material breach, so you have the right to rescind the contract.

Answers

Answer: B. Mr. Lanier had a duty to send you a check by the 15th. He's breached that duty under the contract, and it appears to be a material breach, so you have the right to rescind the contract.

Explanation:

Material breach occurs when a particular party fails to fulfill his or her part in a contract and this can lead to the other party rescinding the contract or sue for a breach of contract.

Since under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Lanier has to forward a certified check for 25% of the purchase price within 15 days of the signing of the purchase agreement but he didn't send the check, this means that the there's a breach in the contract, and the contract can be rescinded.
