Answer:
a. 125.43 hours
b. 767.92 hours
c. 2,129.04 hours
Explanation:
Using the mathematical approach, we have :
y = ax ^b
Where ,
y is the average time to manufacture x units
a is the time its takes to manufacture first plane
b is the log of 80% divided by log 2
Then,
Average time for 5 planes = 300 (5)^-0.322
= 178.67 hours
Total time for 5 planes = 178.67 hours × 5
= 893.35
Average time for 4 planes = 300 (4)^-0.322
= 191.98 hours
Total time for 5 planes = 191.98 hours × 4
= 767.92 hours
The fifth plane would take = 893.35 - 767.92
= 125.43 hours
Average time for the 18 planes = 300(18)^-0.322
= 118,28 hours
Total time for 18 planes = 118,28 hours × 18
= 2,129.04 hours
You observe a portfolio for five years and determine that its average return is 11.3% and the standard deviation of its returns in 19.7%. Would a 30% loss next year be outside the 95% confidence interval for this portfolio?
Answer:
-28.1%
Explanation:
Calculation for what would a 30% loss next year be outside the 95% confidence interval for the portfolio
The standard deviation of 95% confident will be 2
The first step is to find the Upper tail using this formula
Upper tail= Average return percentage +(Standard deviation of 95% confident *Standard deviation of its returns)
Let plug in the formula
Upper tail=0.113+(2*0.197)
Upper tail =0.113+0.394
Upper tail=0.507*100
Upper tail =50.7%
Second step is to find the Lower tail using this formula
Lower tail=Average return percentage -(Standard deviation of 95% confident *Standard deviation of its returns)
Let plug in the formula
Upper tail=0.113-(2*0.197)
Upper tail =0.113-0.394
Upper tail=-0.281*100
Upper tail =28.1%
Based on the above calculation the lower tail was -28.1% which means that it wouldn't in any way loss more than the 30% of it value next year outside the 95% confidence interval for the portfolio
Andy tells Ervin and Marina that everyone will lose their jobs if the company goes out of business, whether they have guild protection or not. Which influence tactic is Andy most likely utilizing?
consultation
rational persuasion
legitimating tactics
ingratiation
exchange
Answer: Legitimating tactics
Explanation:
Rational Persuasion has to do with when an individual is being convinced with logic, reasons or facts.
Consultation means simply getting other people to participate in making decisions and planning.
Ingratiation is when an individual tried to influence someone else by becoming likeable to the person.
Legitimating tactics occur when an individual uses his or her power to influence others. This tactic is intended to make people do something and not to motivate them.
This strategy is designed to force people to accomplish something rather than to motivate them. When a person utilizes his or her power to persuade others, this is known as legitimizing methods.
So, Option C is correct.
The other Options are incorrect as:
Option A is incorrect as Getting other people involved in decision-making and planning is what consultation entails.
Option B is incorrect as When a person is persuaded using logic, arguments, or facts, this is known as rational persuasion.
Option D is incorrect as When someone tries to influence someone else by becoming likable to them, this is known as ingratiation.
Option E is incorrect as A strategy entails making explicit or inferred commitments and exchanging favors. Tactics used by the coalition.
Thus Option C is the correct tactic andy has used.

Consider the WACC formula, if the required rate of return on preferred stock increases, holding all else equal, the WACC increases.
a) true
b) false
Answer: True
Explanation:
The Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) calculates the cost of capital to a company for the means of capital it uses to finance operations. It is based on the cost and the weight of the various capital types.
Formula is;
= Cost of Equity * %Equity + Cost of debt * %Debt * ( 1 - Tax rate) + Cost of Preferred Stock * %Preferred stock
The required rate of return on preferred stock is the same as the Cost of Preferred Stock. From the formula it is shown that if this rate increases, holding all else equal, total WACC will increase.

Do your shopping behavior and purchase criteria differ between purchases made for yourself and purchases made as gifts? How?
Explanation:
Yes, as purchasing behavior and purchasing criteria tend to vary according to the reason for the purchase.
The consumer purchase decision process begins by identifying a need, searching for available information about the purchase need found, evaluating the options available for purchase and finally buying decision. And this process varies according to the type of purchase, if it is for yourself, you can consider different benefits and options, when a purchase is made to be a gift, you can have different criteria in relation to the price you want to pay, the preferences and needs of the person who will receive the gift, etc.
Which means that sellers must create different strategies for each purchase situation, in order to positively influence the purchase process for a gift, if that is the case.
Item 3Item 3 Cutter Enterprises purchased equipment for $87,000 on January 1, 2018. The equipment is expected to have a five-year life and a residual value of $4,800. Using the sum-of-the-years'-digits method, depreciation for 2018 and book value at December 31, 2018, would be
Answer:
$27,400 and $59,600
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense and the book value using the sum of-the-years'-digits method is shown below:
Depreciation expense is
= (Purchase cost - residual value) × useful life ÷ sum of years
= ($87,000 - $4,800) × 5 years ÷ (5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1)
= $27,400
And, the book value is
= Purchase cost - depreciation expense
= $87,000 - $27,400
= $59,600
A firm is expected to have net earnings of $1,480,000 three years from now. There are 500,000 shares of stock outstanding. The firm's current P/E ratio is 18 and it is expected to remain at that level. What is the firm's expected stock price for year 3
Answer:
Stock price = $53.28
Explanation:
DATA
Earnings = $1,480,000
Shares outstanding = 500,000
P/E ratio = 18
Stock price = ?
he firm's expected stock price for year 3 can be calculated by using Price earning ratio formula
Formula:
P/E ratio = Stock price / EPS
Stock price = P/E ratio x EPS
Stock price = 18 x $2.96(w)
Stock price = $53.28

Use the following information to determine the break-even point in sales dollars:
Unit sales 51,600 Units
Dollar sales $516,000
Fixed costs $206,000
Variable costs $193,500
$206,000.
$116,500.
$186,400.
$329,600.
$516,000.
Answer:
$329,600
Explanation:
The computation of break-even point is shown below:-
But before that first we need to compute the following calculations
Total contribution margin ratio = Sales - Variable cost
= $516,000 - $193,500
= $322,500
Contribution margin in percentage = Total Contribution Margin ÷ Total Sales
= $322,500 ÷ $516,000
= 62.50%
Now,
Break-even point = Total fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin in percentage
= $206,000 ÷ 62.50%
= $329,600

Answer:
$92,200
Explanation:
Calculation for Hopson's projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2015
Using this formula
Projected benefit obligation=Actuarial estimate of projected benefit obligation + Service costs +(Actuarial estimate of projected benefit obligation × Discount rate)- Pension benefit
Let plug in the formula
Projected benefit obligation= $72,000 + $28,000 + ($72,000 × .10) -$15,000
Projected benefit obligation=$72,000 + $28,000 + $7,200-$15,000
Projected benefit obligation= $107,200-$15,000
Projected benefit obligation=$92,200
Therefore Hopson's projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2015 will be $92,200
Duff Inc. paid a 2.34 dollar dividend today. If the dividend is expected to grow at a constant 1 percent rate and the required rate of return is 11 percent, what would you expect Duff's stock price to be 4 years from now?
Answer:
$24.60
Explanation:
The computation of the price for 4 years from now is shown below:
Price = Dividend ÷(Required rate of return - growth rate)
where,
Dividend is
= Dividend × (1 + growth rate)^number of years
= $2.34 × (1 + 0.01)^5
= $2.46
All the other items would remain the same
So, the price is
= $2.46 ÷ (11% - 1%)
= $24.60

The incredible shrinking $50 bill in 1957 was worth $50, but in 2007 it is worth only $. a. What was the compounded average annual inflation rate (loss of purchasing power) during this period of time? b. Fifty dollars invested in the stock market in 1957 was worth $ in 2007. In view of your answer to Part (a), what was the annual real interest rate earned on this investment?
Answer:
A. 4.02%
B. 3.49%
Explanation:
a. Computation of the compounded average annual inflation rate during this period of time
Using this formula
Annual inflation rate=FV/ P *(1+i)^t
Where,
t = 2007 - 1957 = 50 yrs
FV = 6.42
P = 50
Let plug in the formula
Annual inflation rate = (6.42 / 50)^(1/50) - 1
Annual inflation rate= 0.1284 ^ 0.02 - 1
Annual inflation rate= 0.959779 - 1
Annual inflation rate= -0.0402208 *100%
Annual inflation rate=4.02%
b. Computation of the annual real interest rate earned on this investment
First step is to find the Norminal ROR
Using this formula
Norminal ROR
= FV/ P *(1+i)^t
Where
FV = 1998
P = 50
let plug in the formula
Norminal ROR = (1998 / 50)^(1/50) -1
Norminal ROR= 39.96 ^ 0.02 - 1
Norminal ROR= 1.076545 - 1
Norminal ROR= 0.0765457 *100
Norminal ROR= 7.65%
Last step is to calculate for annual real interest rate earned using this formula
Annual real interest rate earned = (1+ Nominal ROR) / (1+ Inflation) -1
Let plug in the formula
Annual real interest rate earned=(1+0.0765457) / (1+0.0402208) - 1
Annual real interest rate earned= (1.0765457) / (1.0402208) - 1
Annual real interest rate earned= 1.034920 - 1
Annual real interest rate earned= 0.0349*100
Annual real interest rate earned=3.49%
Therefore the Annual inflation rate will be 4.02% while Annual real interest rate earned will be 3.49%

Kosher Pickle Company acquires all the outstanding stock of Midwest Produce for $12.5 million. The fair value of Midwest's assets is $8.5 million. The fair value of Midwest's liabilities is $1.3 million. Calculate the amount paid for goodwill
Answer:
$5.3 million
Explanation:
Kosher pickle company acquires outstanding stock of Midwest produce for $12.5 million
Fair value of Midwest assets is $8.5 million
Fair value of Midwest liabilities is $1.3 million
The first step is to calculate the fair value of net identifiable assets
= $8.5 million-$1.3 million
=7.2 million
Therefore, the amount paid for goodwill can be calculated as follows
= $12.5 million-$7.2 million
= $5.3 million
Hence the amount paid for goodwill is $5.3 million
James hires Franco for a painting job. Their contract explicitly states that Franco's employment can be terminated if he is employed by another party during the contract period. Two weeks into the job, James finds out that Franco is also working for a painting agency two blocks away and terminates his employment. This is an instance of ________.
Answer:
Condition subsequent.
Explanation:
This is rampant on agreement that deal with contracts as it is seen to be a situation that terminates a previously valid contract. Closely related legal concepts in cases of this kind are treated as conditions precedent and conditions concurrent. A condition subsequent in certain contracts are known to trigger the termination of the agreement of the said contract and also eliminates rights and obligations in the ends of the two parties. It is seen also in cases that when it occurs, it terminates any duty to perform and can also terminate rights and interests that were present under the terms of the contract.

A U.S. manufacturing company operating a subsidiary in an LDC (less-developed country) shows the following results:
U.S. LDC
Sales (units) 100,000 20,000
Labor (hours) 20,000 15,000
Raw materials (currency) $20,000 FC 20,000
Capital equipment (hours) 60,000 5,000
a. Calculate partial labor and capital productivity figures for the parent and subsidiary. Do the results seem confusing?
b. Compute the multifactor productivity figures for labor and capital together. Do the results make more sense?
c. Calculate raw material productivity figures (units/$ where $1=FC 10). Explain why these figures might be greater in the subsidiary.
Answer:
a. Labor Productivity:
Country Sales (Units) Labour (hours) Productivity (Sales/Labour hours)
U.S 100,000 20,000 5 units / hours
LDC 20,000 15,000 1.33 units/ hours
Capital Productivity
Country Sales (Units) Capital (hours) Productivity (Sales/Capital hours)
U.S 100,000 60,000 1.67 units / hour
LDC 20,000 5,000 4 units / hours
Conclusion: Yes, the result seems confusing. The labour productivity in U.S. is higher than LDC while the capital productivity in U.S. is lower than LDC which is contradictory.
b. Multi-factor productivity for Labor and Capital
Country Sales Input Productivity
(Units) (Labor + Capital) (units/hours)
U.S. 100,000 80,000 1.25 units/hour
(20,000 + 60,000)
LDC 20,000 20,000 1 units/hour
(15,000 + 5,000)
Conclusion: Yes it make sense as multi-factor productivity is better than partial productivity. Labor and capital are subtitles and that gives better presentation of the productivity.
c. Raw material productivity
Country Sales Raw material Productivity
(Units) (Currency) (units/hours)
U.S. 100,000 $20,000 5 units per dollar
LDC 20,000 = $2,000 10 units per dollar
Conclusion: The figures are greater in subsidiary because the price paid for raw material is much slower than the parent country.
Note: $1 = FC 10
$20,000 = FC 10
FC = $20,000 / 10 = $2,000

TB MC Qu. 9-100 The following labor standards have been ... The following labor standards have been established for a particular product: Standard labor-hours per unit of output 9.6 hours Standard labor rate $ 13.40 per hour The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual hours worked 7,400 hours Actual total labor cost $ 96,200 Actual output 950 units What is the labor efficiency variance for the month
Answer:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $23,048 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard labor-hours per unit of output 9.6 hours
Standard labor rate $ 13.40 per hour
Actual hours worked 7,400 hours
Actual output 950 units
To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Standard quantity= 9.6*950= 9,120
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (9,120 - 7,400)*13.4
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $23,048 favorable
