This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Martinez company's relevant range production is 7,500 units to 12,500 units. When it produces and sells 10,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:-
Average cost per unit
Direct materials $7.00
Direct labor $4.50
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.40
Fixed manufacturing overhead $4.00
Fixed selling expense $4.00
Fixed administrative expense $2.10
Sales commissions $1.10
Variable administrative expense $0.55
If 8,000 units are produced,
a) what is the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost incurred to support this level of production
b) What is this total amount expressed on a per unit basis
Answer:
a) the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost incurred to support this level of production is $51,200
b) What is this total amount expressed on a per unit basis is $6.40
Explanation:
a)
Given that;
number of units produced is 8,000 units
Variable manufacturing overhead is $1.40
Variable manufacturing overhead cost will be units produced / Variable manufacturing overhead
so Variable manufacturing overhead cost = 8000 units × $1.40 = $11,200
Now Fixed manufacturing overhead cost = 10000 units × $4 = $ 40,000
Total manufacturing overhead cost is the addition of Variable manufacturing overhead cost and Fixed manufacturing overhead cost
$11,200 + $40,000 = $51,200
b)
Number of units produced = 8,000
therefore Manufacturing overhead per unit = Total manufacturing overhead cost / Number of units produced
51,200 / 8,000 = $6.40
Assume the real rate of interest is 4.00% and the inflation rate is 4.00%. What is the value today of receiving 11,134.00 in 9.00 years
Answer:
FV= $11,134
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future value= $11,134
Interest rate= 4%
Inflation rate= 4%
Number of periods= 9 years
The inflation rate provokes the opposite effect of the interest rate. Therefore, if the interest rate and the inflation rate are equal, the value of money through time remains constant.
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 11,134* (1+0.04-0.04)^9
FV= $11,134
The controller of Hallowell Company estimates the amount of materials handling overhead cost that should be allocated to the company's two products using the data that are given below:Wall Mirrors Specialty WindowsTotal expected units produced 2,000 7,000Total expected material moves 100 600Expected DL Hours per unit 7 4The total materials handling cost for the year is expected to be $18,257.40If the materials handling cost is allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours, how much of the total materials handling cost would be allocated to the wall mirrors? (Round off your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $6,085.8
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Wall Mirrors Specialty Windows
Total expected units produced 2,000 7,000
Expected DL Hours per unit 7 4
The total materials handling cost for the year is expected to be $18,257.40
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 18,257.4 / (2,000*7 + 7,000*4)
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 18,257.4 / 42,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $0.4347 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 0.4347*(2,000*7)
Allocated MOH= $6,085.8
Bauer Software's current balance sheet shows total common equity of $4,653,400. The company has 530,000 shares of stock outstanding, and they sell at a price of $27.50 per share. By how much do the firm's market and book values per share differ
Answer:
Difference between market value and book value = $18.72 (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Common equity = $4,653,400
Number of shares = 530,000
Selling price = $27.50 per share
Find:
Difference between market value and book value
Computation:
Difference between market value and book value = $27.50 per share - [$4,653,400 / 530,000]
Difference between market value and book value = $27.50 per share - 8.78 per share
Difference between market value and book value = $18.72 (Approx)
Rocky River Company is a pricetaker and uses target pricing. Refer to the following information:Production volume 602,000 units per yearMarket price $34 per unitDesired operating income 17% of total assetsTotal assets $13,900,000 What is the target full product cost per unit? (Round your answer to nearest cent.) Assume all units produced are sold.a. $34.00b. $30.07c. $5.78d. $28.22
Answer:
$30.07
Explanation:
Rocky river company uses target pricing
The production volume is 602,000 units
The market price is $34 per unit
The total assets is $13,900,000
The desired operating income is 17% of the total assets
= 17/100 × 13,900,000
= 0.17×13,900,000
= 2,363,000
The first step is to calculate the sales value
= 602,000 ×34
= 20,468,000
The total cost can be calculated as follows
= Sales value-desired operating income
= 20,468,000-2,363,000
= 18,105,000
Therefore the target full product cost per unit can be calculated as follows
= Total cost/production volume
= 18,105,000/602,000
= $30.07
Hence the full target product cost per unit is $30.07
The most important and volatile component of the current account in the U.S. balance of payments is:
Answer: net exports
Explanation:
Balance of payment simply shows the estimation of the inflows and outflow of a nation's money for a certain year. It should be noted that current account of the balance of payment consists of three main components which are the trade in Goods, the trade in services, and the transfer payments.
The trade in goods is segregated into imports and export. This therefore makes the net exports volatile and vital because it has higher share in a current account.
ART has come out with a new and improved product. As a result, the firm projects an ROE of 26%, and it will maintain a plowback ratio of 0.20. Its earnings this year will be $2.5 per share. Investors expect a 14% rate of return on the stock. What price do you expect ART shares to sell for in 4 years?
A. $26.46
B. $39.69
C. $27.84
D. $30.34
Answer:
27.84
Explanation:
In order to find the price(value of the stock) after 4 years, we must have the growth rate to reach that level. In this question the growth rate will be identified first by the given information.
DATA
ROE = 26%
Plow back ratio = 0.20
Dividend this year = Do = $2.5
Rate of return = 14%
Time period = 4 years
Solution
growth rate = ROE x plow back ratio
growth rate = 26% * 0.2
growth rate = 5.2%
Dividend next year D1 = Do x (1-plowback ratio)
D1 = 2.5 x (1-0.2)
D1 = $2
Value of stock now Po = D1/(return - growth rate)
Value of stock now Po = 2/(0.14-0.052)
Value of stock now Po = $22.73
Value of stock in 4 years = Po * (1+growth rate)^4
Value of stock in 4 years = 22.73 * (1+0.052)^4
Value of stock in 4 years = $27.84

$ 1.00 80 50
$ 1.50 70 70
$ 2.00 60 90
$ 2.50 50 110
Calculation
at price = $0.50
Qd = 100 - 20P = 100 - 20 x (0.50) =100-10 =90
Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (0.50)=10+ 20 = 30
at price = $1.00
Qd = 100 - 20P = 100 - 20 x (1.00) =100-20 =80
Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (1.00)=10+ 40 = 50
at price = $1.50
Qd = 100 - 20P = 100 - 20 x (1.50) =100-30 =70
Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (1.50)=10+ 60 = 70
at price = $2.00
Qd = 100 - 20P = 100 - 20 x (2.00) =100-40 =60
Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (2.00)=10+ 80 = 90
at price = $2.50
Qd = 100 - 20P = 100 - 20 x (2.50) =100-50=50
Qs = 10 + 40P= 10 + 40 x (2.50)=10+ 100 = 110

Productivity in the United States doubled between 1945 and 1990. However, the work week didn't get shorter because
Answer:
the standard of living increased
Explanation:
Between the years 1948 and 1990, the level of productivity in the United States of America increased tremendously, to the extent that it was in the doubled fold. Consequently, this increase in the level of productivity simply exemplified that, there is a substantial increase in the standard of living for the average American.
Hence, it can be concluded that, in this case, the workweek didn't get shorter because "the standard of living increased."
The opportunity cost of producing a pair of pants in the USA is 5 bushels of wheat, while in China, it is 2 bushels of wheat. As a result:
Answer:
Explanation:
As a result of these statistics there can be mutual gains from trade to the two countries if the USA exports wheat to China in exchange for pants. That is because USA is able to produce wheat at a much more efficient pace than China can, but at the same time China can produce pants at a much more efficient pace than the USA. Therefore by trading with one another they can focus on producing what each are most efficient in and trading what they are not, thus saving money.
If I were the CEO (Chief Executive Officer) of a high tech computer company in which region of Texas would I be most likely to put my research facility which requires well educated employees?
Answer:
Dallas
Explanation:
The reason is that the city has fifth largest number of colleges and universities in USA and is the largest one in Texas. It is also third largest populous city in Texas which means that the possibility to access Human resource at lower price (Foreign students of PHD and MS) will be the lowest in the city as the supply of these talented people would be high here. Furthermore the research facility would cost me less here as the city is not as Houston and San Antonio. Furthermore, the Dallas fort is also the 11th most high-tech city in the world as per the Business Insider, this makes it my choice because all the best talent for high tech computer company will be available here.
The YTM for a firm's bonds is 10%. The corporate tax rate is 40%. What is this firm's after-tax cost of debt
Answer:
6
Explanation:
Given that
Yield to maturity = 10%
Tax rate = 40%
According to the given scenario, the computation of firm's after-tax cost of debt is shown below:-
After-tax cost of debt = Yield to maturity × (1 - Tax rate)
= 10 × (1 - 0.4)
= 10 × 0.6
= 6
Therefore for computing the after-tax cost of debt we simply applied the above formula.

During a recent fiscal year, Creek Company reported pretax income of $123,000, a contribution margin ratio of 25% and total contribution margin of $380,000. Total variable costs must have been:_________. a. $1028,000 b. $1,140,000 c. $492,000 d. $1,520,000 $2,012,000
Answer:
b. $1,140,000
Explanation:
To get the total variable cost, we need to first get the sales.
Sales = Contribution / Margin ratio
= $380,000 / 25%
= $1,520,000
Therefore,
Total variable costs would be
= $1,520,000 * 75% [100% - 25%]
= $1,140,000

Baldwin Corp. ended the year carrying $19,196,000 worth of inventory. Had they sold their entire inventory at their current prices, how much more revenue would it have brought to Baldwin Corp.?
Answer: $19,196,000
Explanation:
As this is the end of the year it means that all costs associated with selling inventory have already been incurred and accounted for.
The total revenue that Baldwin would have received had they sold off all their inventory would be the inventory worth of $19,196,000 because there are no more costs to be deducted from it as they have all been deducted already.
After Xavier and Alyssa deposited nearly $55,000 in a savings account at Bigbux Bank, the bank failed and filed for bankruptcy. Because the Bigbux was an FDIC member bank, Xavier and Alyssa:_______
Answer: should be protected due to the fact that their account is insured by FDIC.
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that after Xavier and Alyssa deposited nearly $55,000 in a savings account at Bigbux Bank, the bank failed and filed for bankruptcy but that the Bigbux was an FDIC member bank.
Based on the above scenario, Xavier and Alyssa should be protected due to the fact that their account is insured by FDIC. Since the bank is insured, their money is safe.
Answer:
Should be okay because their account is fully insured by the FDIC
Explanation:
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is an agency that was formed to protect depositors of US depository organisations.
They provide a standard deposit insurance amount of $250,000 per account for each insured bank and for each account ownership category.
So for example if a client owns multiple savings accounts there will be coverage of $250,000 for all accounts in this category.
In this scenario Xavier and Alyssa are covered because their account balance is below $250,000.
1. You are the owner of a small business that is a defendant in a lawsuit in federal court. You received bad news from your lawyer that the judge did not allow certain documents to be admitted as evidence in court and that the jury reached a $50,000 verdict in favor of the plaintiff. Your lawyer tells you that it is within your legal right to hire him to file an appeal with the United States Court of Appeals. If the appellate court rules in your favor, you may be able to avoid paying part or all of the $50,000. Evaluate your lawyer's suggestion about appealing the decision.
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Explanation: After the verdict of the judge, as a lawyer who stood for the defendant, the lawyers would want to find a way out of the verdict such that his client could get a more favorable judgment, hence the option to appeal. However, appealing the verdict of a court also has two possible outcomes, which are either winning and getting a more favorable verdict which is avoiding the whole or part of the $50,000 fine or losing again which ultimately results in more expenses incurred during the duration of the legal suit. It could also dent the image of the business as his decision to appeal may be deemed as obstinate.
Job satisfaction questionnaires should always be anonymous to get employees to tell the truth.A. TrueB. False
Answer:
B. False
Explanation:
I would say that most of the time (the vast majority actually) questionnaires should be anonymous. Imagine if you had to answer a questionnaire about your teacher, and he/she is a really bad teacher. If the questionnaire had your name on it, you would probably be much nicer than if the questionnaire was anonymous (due to the fear of retaliation by the teacher). The same thing happens on any workplace, no one will tell how bad his/her boss is if their name will appear on the questionnaire. Employees will always fear retaliation from their supervisor or manager, so they will not be completely honest.
But on some companies, employees might not fear any type of retaliation, specially on very horizontal organizations (flat structures with few management levels). The advantage of non-anonymous questionnaires is that they can be used to actually solve problems and follow up how the problems were solved or how do employees feel after they were solved.
The problem is that non-anonymous questionnaires work for companies that probably do not need them very much in the first place, while on companies that really need them, they are anonymous.

In a portfolio of three randomly selected stocks, which of the following could NOT be true; i.e., which statement is false?
a. The beta of the portfolio is lower than the lowest of the three betas
b. The beta of the porfolio is higher than the highest ofthe three betas
c. The riskiness of the portfolio is greater than the riskiess ofoneor two of the stocks.
d. The riskiness of the portfolio is less than the riskiness of each of the stocks if they were held in isolation
e. The beta of the portfolio is calculated as a weighted average of the individual stocks' betas.
Answer: b. The beta of the portfolio is higher than the highest of the three betas
Explanation:
The beta of a portfolio is calculated as a weighted average of the individual betas of the individual stocks. As such, the highest individual beta will be the upper limit of the portfolios entire beta.
For instance.
3 stocks A, B and C have betas of 1, 1.3 and 2 respectively.
A has a weight of 1%, B has a weight of 1% and C has a weight of 98%.
The portfolio beta will be;
= (0.01 * 1 ) + ( 0.01 * 1.3) + ( 0.98 * 2)
= 1.98
Even if the stock with the highest beta had an advantage of weighing such a high figure, it it mathematically impossible for the portfolio beta to be higher than it.

Therefore the carrying value of the note receivable on Park’s December 31, 2019, balance sheet will be $28,560
if a life insurance policy develops cash value faster than a seven pay whole life contract it becomes
Answer:
modified endowment contract (MEC)
Explanation:
In such a scenario the life insurance policy becomes a modified endowment contract (MEC). This is a tax qualification of all life insurance policies that is activated once that policy's cumulative premiums exceed federal tax law limits, which causes the taxation structure and IRS policy classification of that contract to completely change.
If a life insurance policy develops cash value faster than a seven-pay whole-life contract it becomes more attractive to policyholders as it accumulates funds quicker, providing additional financial benefits.
How can the cash be accessed?Policyholders can access the cash value through loans or withdrawals, offering flexibility and potential for investment opportunities. Faster cash value growth also means earlier potential for policyholders to benefit from dividends or other investment returns.
However, it's crucial to consider the trade-offs, such as higher premiums or reduced death benefits. Policyholders should review their specific needs, risk tolerance, and long-term objectives when choosing a life insurance policy. Consulting a financial advisor is recommended to make informed decisions about life insurance options.

Annual Installments = Loan Amount ÷ Present Value Annuity Factor
= $150,000 ÷ (14%,5)
= $150,000 ÷ 3.4330809
= $43,692.53
b. The Preparation of loan amortization schedule showing the interest and principal breakdown of each of the five loan payments is shown below:-
Year Opening Annual Principal Interest Closing
balance installments balance
1 $150,000 $43,692.53 $22,692.53 $21,000 $127,307.47
2 $127,307.47 $43,692.53 $25,869.48 $17,823.05 $101,437.99
3 $101,437.99 $43,692.53 $29,491.21 $14,201.32 $71,946.78
4 $71,946.78 $43,692.53 $33,619.98 $10,072.55 $38,326.80
5 $38,326.80 $43,692.53 $38,326.80 $5,365.75 $0.00
Working note:-
a. For computing the principal we simply deduct interest from annual installment.
b. For computing the interest we simply multiply the opening balance with the annual rate of interest that is 14%
c. For computing the closing balance we simply deduct the principal from opening balance.
3. On its most current closing loan balance, the interest on the amortized loan is measured and the interest rate declines with the passage of time as the Principal Amount decreases the loan balance that is based on interest.
