Suppose that the residents of Vegi-Topia spend all of their income on cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots. In 2013, they buy 50 heads of cauliflower for $2 each, 60 bunches of broccoli for $1.5 each, and 200 carrots for $0.10. In 2014, they buy 75 heads of cauliflower for $2 each, 70 bunches of broccoli for $1.50 each, and 500 carrots for $0.20 each. In 2015, they buy 80 heads of cauliflower for $3, 90 bunches of broccoli for $2, and 500 carrots for $0.25 each. If the base year is 2015, what is the inflation for 2014

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Inflation for 2014 is 11%

Explanation:

Inflation refers to a quantitative measure of the rate of an increase in the average price level of a selected basket of commodities in an economy over a specified period of time.

The inflation rate for 2014 can be calculated as follows:

Since 2015 is the base year, the it implies that the basket we are going to use contains 80 heads of cauliflower, 90 bunches of broccoli, and 500 carrots.

Therefore, cost of basket for each year can be determined as follows:

2013 cost of basket = ∑(Unit price in 2014 * Quantity in 2015) = ($2 * 80) + ($1.50 * 50) + ($0.10 * 500) = $285

2014 cost of basket = ∑(Unit price in 2014 * Quantity in 2015) = ($2 * 80) + ($1.50 * 50) + ($0.20 * 500) = $335

2015 cost of basket = ∑(Unit price in 2015 * Quantity in 2015) = ($3 * 80) + ($2 * 50) + ($0.25 * 500) = $465

The CPI for each year can be determined using the following for formula:

CPI of a year = Current period cost of basket / Base year cost of basket …………… (1)

As 2015 is the base year, using equation (1), we have:

2013 CPI = (2013 cost of basket / 2015 cost of basket) * 100 = $285 / $465 = 0.61 * 100 = 61

2014 CPI = (2014 cost of basket / 2015 cost of basket) * 100 = $335 / $465 = 0.72 * 100 = 72

2015 CPI = (2015 cost of basket / 2015 cost of basket) * 100 = $465 / $465 = 1 * 100 = 100

The inflation for a year can be determined as follows:

Inflation = (CPI in the current year - CPI in previous year) / CPI in the base year ..................... (2)

Using equation (2), we have:

Inflation for 2014 = (CPI in 2014 - CPI in 2013) / CPI in 2015 = (72 - 61) / 100 = 11 / 100 = 0.11, or 11%

Assume the Residential Division of KappyKappy Faucets had the following results last year:
Net sales $6,360,000
Operating income 636,000
Average total assets 5,300,000
Management's target rate of return 16%
What is the division's return on investment?

Answers

Answer:

12%

Explanation:

Calculation for the division's return on investment

Using this formula

Return On Investment = Operating income /Average total assets

Let plug in the formula

Return on investment= $636,000/$5,300,000

Return on investment= 0.12*100

Return on investment=12%

Therefore the division's return on investment will be $12%

Interest rates can be measured more accurately and quickly than reserve aggregates; hence an interest rate is preferred to the reserve aggregates as a policy instrument.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

This is false.

In reporting reserves aggregate there are lags interest rate such as the federal interest rate are quite easy to measure and easily observable. Such short term interest rate are nominal values and they do not measure the real cost of borrowing well. It does not show accurately what happens to Gross domestic product. Real interest rate equals nominal interest rate as a ratio of reduced inflation gives a representation of true cost of borrowing.

We cannot say with certainty that interests rate is a better policy instrument based on the ground of measurability.

You short-sell 200 shares of Tuckerton Trading Co., now selling for $50 per share. What is your maximum possible loss

Answers

Answer:

Unlimited

Explanation:

GIven that:

You short-sell 200 shares of Tuckerton Trading Co

now selling for $50 per share.

If a short-sell occurs on a trade, the lower the share price, the higher the profit your are liable to achieve but if short-sell occurs and the share price is higher, then the  more loss you're going to accumulate.

From the question, the lowest possible share price is zero and the highest possible share price is infinity since there is no stop loss.

The maximum possible loss = 200 × 50( 1 - infinity share price)

= Unlimited loss

A stock has an expected return of 13.5 percent, its beta is 1.40, and the expected return on the market is 11.5 percent. What must the risk-free rate be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

The risk free rate is 6.50%

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.

The equation is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free rate rM is the return on market

As we know the figures for r, Beta and rM, we will input these figures in the equation to calculate risk free rate.

Let risk free rate be x.

0.135 = x + 1.4 * (0.115 - x)

0.135 = x + 0.161 - 1.4x

0.135 - 0.161  =  x - 1.4x

-0.026  =  -0.4x

-0.026 / -0.4 = x

x =  0.065 or 6.50%

r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

A producer can produce a product at a variable cost per unit of $7. The producer can sell the product for $10 each. If the fixed cost is $60,000.

Required:
a. How many units must the producer sell to break-even?
b. What is revenue at 35,000 units?
c. What is total cost at 35,000 units?
d. How many units must the producer sell in order to earn a profit of $60,000?

Answers

Answer:

a.

Break even in units = 20000 units

b.

Revenue at 35000 units = $350000

c.

Total cost (35000 units) = $305000

d.

Units required for target profit = 40000 units

Explanation:

a.

The break even in units is the number of units that must be sold in order to earn enough total revenue as to cover total costs. The break even in units can be calculated as follows,

Break even in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit

Where,

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution margin per unit = 10 - 7 =$3

Break even in units = 60000 / 3

Break even in units = 20000 units

b.

Revenue = Price * Quantity

Revenue at 35000 units = 10 * 35000

Revenue at 35000 units = $350000

c.

Total cost = Variable cost + Fixed cost

Total cost (35000 units) = 7 * 35000 + 60000

Total cost (35000 units) = $305000

d.

To calculate the units required to earn a target profit, we simply add the target profit amount to the fixed costs in the break even in units equation.

Thus, the number of units required to earn a target profit of $60000 is,

Units required for target profit = (60000 + 60000) / 3

Units required for target profit = 40000 units

EHealth Corporation has $1,000 par value bonds with 4 years to maturity. The bonds pay an 8% coupon rate with semi-annual coupon interest payments. The bond's closing price is quoted at 103.75. Suppose you purchase the bond for the closing price. What is the bond's yield to maturity?

Answers

Answer:

Yield to Maturity(YTM) = 3.47%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity is the required rate of return (discount rate) that would equate the price of the bond and cash outflow  expected from the bond.  The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:  

YTM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)  

YTM-Yield to maturity-  

C- coupon  

F- Face Value  

P- Current Price  

DATA  

Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 8%× 1/2=40(note we divide by 2 because interest is paid semi-annually)

n= 4×2 = 8 (note there 2 half months in a year)

Face Value = 1000

YM-?, C-40, Face Value - 1,000, P-103.75/100×   1000 = 1037.5

YM = (40 + (1000-1037)/8) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 1037.5  ) )  =0.0347

YM = 0.0347 × 100 = 3.47%  

Yield to Maturity = 3.47%

Based on the following information, calculate the variable overhead rate variance. Actual variable overhead cost $15,500 Actual hours used 4,200 Standard hours allowed 4,000 Standard variable overhead rate $3.75 per hour

Answers

Answer:

Rate variance = $250 favorable

Explanation:

The variable overhead rate variance is the difference between the actual variable cost and the standard variable overhead  cost the actual actual hours used.

We would compare the actual cost to the standard cost of the actual hours used . This is done below as follows:

                                                                                               $

4,200 hours should have cost (4200 × 3.75 )               15,750

but did cost                                                                       15,500

Rate variance                                                                      250  Favorable

Note the actual hours of 4,200 cost $250 less than it should be have cost . Hence the variance is favorable

Rate variance = $250

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Fontaine invested a building that had a value of $366,000 but the partnership assumes a $133,000 note secured by a mortgage on the property. This therefore reduces Fontaine's contribution;

= 366,000 - 133,000

= $233,000

Monroe contributed both cash and equipment so that would go to Monroe's capital account as their capital contribution;

= 108,000 + 83,000

= $191,000

Answers

Answer

a) $15

Explanation:

We will use the formula for Total labor variance to arrive at Standard rate.

Total labor variance = (Actual hours × Actual rate) - (Standard hours × Standard rate)

Substituting the data above into the formula, we'll have;

-$23,000 = (4,000 × $13) - (5,000 × SR)

-$23,000 = $52,000 - 5,000SR

Collect like terms

5,000SR = $52,000 + $23,000

5,000SR = $75,000

SR = $75,000 / 5,000

SR = $15

Computing absorption costing gross profit

a. Produces and sells 2,000 units.
b. Produces 2,500 units and sells 2,000 units
c. Produces 5,000 units and sells 2,000 units.

Answers

Answer:

a lot of information is missing, so I looked for a similar question that can help you understand this one:

Variable costs (including direct labor, direct materials and variable overhead) = $80 per units

Fixed overhead = $150,000

a) If Adamson produces 2,000 units, the total cost per unit = $80 + ($150,000 / 2,000) = $80 + $75 = $155

gross profit = total sales revenue - total cogs = (2,000 x $175) - (2,000 x $155) = $350,000 - $310,000 = $40,000

b) If Adamson produces 2,500 units, the total cost per unit = $80 + ($150,000 / 2,500) = $80 + $60 = $140

gross profit = total sales revenue - total cogs = (2,000 x $175) - (2,000 x $140) = $350,000 - $280,000 = $70,000

c)  If Adamson produces 5,000 units, the total cost per unit = $80 + ($150,000 / 5,000) = $80 + $30 = $110

gross profit = total sales revenue - total cogs = (2,000 x $175) - (2,000 x $110) = $350,000 - $220,000 = $130,000

Answer:

$26000

Explanation:

from the question;

check per day; 20000

delay: 3 days

checks to pay suppliers; 17000

clearing time 2 days

we first calculate collection flaot:

collection flaot = average amount of check x outstanding days

= 20000 x 3

= 60000

now we have to calculate disbursements float:

average amount of check x days to clear

= 17000 x 2

= 34000

with these two values we can get the net float

= collection flaot - disbursements float

= 60000 - 34000

= $26000

Apply the integration-responsiveness framework to describe which global strategy Hollywood studios followed originally, and how their strategic positioning has changed over time. Explain how and why.

Answers

Answer is given below :

Explanation:

Global integration refers to the coordination of the organization’s value chain operations within countries, achieving efficiency, synergy and cross-fertilization between countries so that equality between countries is maximized. Between global integration and local accountability, the integration-accountability framework is called to help managers develop a deeper understanding of the business. We can say at the outset or at the outset that an export strategy that applies to Hollywood is used when a company focuses primarily on its domestic operations. It is not intended to expand globally, but to export certain products to take advantage of international opportunities. It does not seek to adapt its products to international markets. It is not interested in responding to specific situations in other countries or formulating a unified world strategy. Hollywood not only produced films and shows that catered to the needs of its native business aimed at American Western culture, but as the industry began to expand it began to adopt a multi-national strategy. Multi dimensional strategy follows products or processes for specific situations in each country. In the initial example, Lincoln should use a multi-year strategy to adapt its manufacturing methods to the conditions of each country where electric factories are built. Retailers often use multicultural strategies because they must cater to local customer tastes. Hollywood has started producing Indian films like Kung Fu Panda, Karate Kids, Oscar Winning Slumdog Millionaire.

The global strategy that Hollywood studios followed at first was the international strategy.

It should be noted that the global strategy that Hollywood studios followed originally was the international strategy where identical movies were showed in foreign countries.

This has changed now as there are different movies that are filmed and in different versions. Also, it isn't in the control of the government to edit out any part.
