None of the choices are needed
Explanation:
As we know that
The contract is an agreement between two parties who are eligible and enforceable by law
The voidable contract is an agreement that is not unenforceable by law due to various reasons like - party failure to complete the contract on time, fraud, misrepresentation, etc
So in the case of the voidable contract, no grace period is applicable neither 24 hours nor 48 hours as if there is a deadline so the same should be considered

Cara Industries incurred the following costs for 50,000 units:
Variable costs $90,000
Fixed costs 120,000
Cara has received a special order from a foreign company for 5,000 units. There is sufficient capacity to fill the order without jeopardizing regular sales. Filling the order will require spending an additional $4,250 for shipping.
If Cara wants to break even on the order, what should the unit sales price be?
A. $4.2
B. $5.05
C.$1.8
D. $2.65
Answer:
Selling price= $2.65
Explanation:
Because it is a special offer, and there is unused capacity, we will take into account only the incremental fixed costs.
First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:
Unitary variable cost= 90,000/50,000= $1.8
Now, we can determine the total unitary cost and the selling price per unit:
Total unitary cost= (4,250/5,000) + 1.8= $2.65
Selling price= $2.65

Annabelle owns an Italian ice shop. If she decided to expand the size of her shop so that she could sell more Italian ices, how would she know if she is experiencing economies of scale in the long run
Answer:
her long-run average cost of selling each Italian ice decreases.
Explanation:
Economies of scale is when a firm produces more units of goods or services on a much larger scale, with very little input cost(average cost). Invariably, this implies that the production units of a firm increases as it grows while having a decreased input costs.
A firm will experience economies of scale in the long run if it's average total costs(cost per unit required for production which remains the same irrespective of output) decreases as it increases its scale of production.
Use goal seek to answer this question. All else equals, to have a net income of 20,000, the COGS margin percentage must be ______, and the gross profit must be ______. Review Later
Answer:
Use goal seek to answer this question. All else equals, to have a net income of 20,000, the COGS margin percentage must be 40%, and the gross profit must be $17,250.
Explanation:
The income statement is missing, so I looked it up and the information given was:
Revenue 100,000 COGS 40,000 Gross Profit 60,000 Salaries Marketing Rent Earnings Before Tax 23,000Income Tax 25% Net Income ?Since COGS are$40,000 and total sales are $100,000, the COGS margin percentage = 40,000 / 100,000 = 40%
Since earnings before taxes are $23,000 and taxes are 25%, then net income = $23,000 x (1 - 25%) = $23,000 x 75% = $17,250

Explanation:
Consider the relative liquidity of the following assets:
Assets
1. The funds in a money market account
2. A $5 bill
3. A share in a publicly traded company
4. Your house
Select the assets in order of their liquidity, from most liquid to least liquid.
Most Liquid
Second-Most Liquid
Third-Most Liquid
Least Liquid
Answer:
Liquidity of an asset refers to how easily convertible the asset is to cash or so called liquid money.
Most Liquid - A $5 bill
This is already cash so it is the most liquid there is.
Second-Most Liquid - The funds in a money market account
Funds in a money market account are the second most liquid because most often they can simply be withdrawn from the fund. There might be limits on the number of withdrawals allowed though within a period.
Third-Most Liquid - A share in a publicly traded company
A share in a publicly trade company ranks here because to realize the cash, one would need to sell the share first.
Least Liquid - Your house
Your house will be the most difficult of these to liquidate as it will involve a much longer process to eventually get it sold and realize cash. The process will include but will not be limited to, advertising, hiring realtors, inspection etc.
Anna hired Juan to act as her sales agent in her auto dealership. However, Anna has instructed Juan not to enter into any sales contracts before she has had a chance to review the transaction. One day, Juan entered into a sales contract with William without informing Anna first. Has Juan created a contract with William that is binding on Anna in this situation?
Answer:
Yes, Juan did have apparent authority to act.
Explanation:
In the situation that is being described it can be said that Yes, Juan did have apparent authority to act. Even though Anna has asked Juan to let her review the transaction before entering into a contract, she gave Juan the authority to act on her behalf and represent her as an authority in the auto dealership when she made him a sales agent. Therefore any and all contracts entered by Juan in the dealership are binding on Anna as well.
A company has net income of $925,000; its weighted-average common shares outstanding are 185,000. Its dividend per share is $0.70, its market price per share is $93, and its book value per share is $83.50. Its price-earnings ratio equals:
Answer:
$18.60
Explanation:
Calculation for the price-earnings ratio
Using this formula
Price-Earnings Ratio = Market Price per Share/ Earnings per share
The Earnings per share will be Net Income/(Weighted-Average Common Shares Outstanding)
Let plug in the formula
Price-Earnings Ratio = $93 / ($925,000 / 185,000)
Price-Earnings Ratio=$93/5
Price-Earnings Ratio=$18.60
Therefore the price-earnings ratio will be $18.60
Fed is open to changing bond policy Fed policymakers signaled for the first time that they could increase or decrease stimulation of the economy in the future, but not now. Source: Los Angeles Times, May 1, 2013 What are the ripple effects and time lags that the Fed must consider in deciding when to increase or decrease stimulation of the economy?
Answer:
When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.
Explanation:
When trying to stimulate the economy either by increasing or decreasing, policymakers have to take into consideration how it would effect interest rate, amount of money available in the economy, loans that would be acquired by banks and the behavior of interest rate.
Interest rate can be impacted quickly even though the period of time it would take for such action to have a reflection on what quantity of money is available in the economy. Then also a period of 2 years would be taken for this action to take effect on inflation.
Therefore
When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.

(1,540
)
*Contains direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead.
Janet Dunn, who has just been appointed general manager of the Westwood Plant, has been given instructions to "get things under control." Upon reviewing the plant’s income statement, Ms. Dunn has concluded that the major problem lies in the variable cost of goods sold. She has been provided with the following standard cost per swimming pool:
Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price
or Rate Standard Cost
Direct materials 3.6 pounds $
2.00
per pound $ 7.20
Direct labor 0.5 hours $
6.60
per hour 3.30
Variable manufacturing overhead 0.3 hours* $
2.10
per hour
0.63
Total standard cost per unit $ 11.13
*Based on machine-hours.
During June the plant produced 3,000 pools and incurred the following costs:
Purchased 15,800 pounds of materials at a cost of $2.45 per pound.
Used 10,600 pounds of materials in production. (Finished goods and work in process inventories are insignificant and can be ignored.)
Worked 2,100 direct labor-hours at a cost of $6.30 per hour.
Incurred variable manufacturing overhead cost totaling $3,000 for the month. A total of 1,200 machine-hours was recorded.
It is the company’s policy to close all variances to cost of goods sold on a monthly basis.
Required:
1. Compute the following variances for June:
a. Materials price and quantity variances.
b. Labor rate and efficiency variances.
c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances.
2. Summarize the variances that you computed in (1) above by showing the net overall favorable or unfavorable variance for the month.
Answer:
1 a. Materials price and quantity variances.
Material price variance = (Actual price - Standard price) * Actual Quantity purchased
= ($2.45 - $2) * 15,800
= $0.45 * 15,800
= $7110 (Unfavorable)
Materials Quantity variance = (Actual Quantity used - Standard Quantity allowed) * Standard price
(10600 - 3000 * 3.6) * $2
= (10,600 - 10,800) * $2
= 200 * $2
= 400 (Favorable)
b. Labor rate and efficiency variances.
Labor rate variance = (Actual rate - standard rate) * Actual hours
= (6.30 - 6.6) * 2,100
= 0.3 * 2,100
= 630 (Favorable)
Labor Efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed) * Standard rate
= (2100 - 3000 * 0.5) * 6.6
= (2,100 - 1,500) * 6.6
= 600 * 6.6
= 3960 (Unfavorable)
c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances
Variable overhead rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate * Actual machine hours)
= 3000 - (2.10 * 1200)
= 3,000 - 2,520
= 480 Unfavorable
Variable overhead Efficiency variance = (Actual hours - standard hours allowed)* Standard rate
= (1200 - 3000 * 0.3) * 2.10
= (1200 - 900) * 2.10
= 300 * 2.10
= 630 (Unfavorable)
2. Variances Amount
Material price variance 7,110 U
Material quantity variance 400 F
Labor rate variance 630 F
Labor efficiency variance 3,960 U
Variable overhead rate variance 480 U
Variable overhead efficiency variance 630 U
Net variance 11,150 U
The net variance of all the variance of the month is 11,150 (Unfavorable)

_____ media are specifically designed to help bring customers eyeball to eyeball with the product--often at the point of sale or close to it.
Answer:
This question is incomplete, the options are missing. The options are the following:
a) Exhibitive.
b) Transit.
c) Direct mail.
d) Outdoor.
e) Print.
And the correct answer is the option A: Exhibitive.
Explanation:
To begin with, the term known as "Exhibitive Media", in the field of marketing and business, refers to the strategy used by the companies whose approach is in the point of sale marketing. This type of strategy focus on exhibiting the product to the costumer the closer as possible so it will generate an impulse on the client of buying the product without having it thought before seeing the product. A very common example of this strategy is the situation in where the supermarkets fill their lines to the cashier with other retails that have product that are attractive at first sight.
Lakeland Consulting started the year with total assets of $30,000 and total owner's equity of $20,000. During the year a) assets increased by $20,000, b) the business recorded $45,000 in revenues, c) the business recorded $30,000 in expenses, and d) the owner withdrew $5,000 for personal use. Liabilities at the end of the year were:
Answer:
Liabilities at the end of the year were: $15,000.
Explanation:
Using the Accounting Equation : Assets = Equity + Liability
Then we know that,
Liability = Assets - Equity
Opening Balance of Liabilities ( $30,000 - $20,000) = $10,000
Adjustment during the year ($20,000 - ($45,000 - $30,000)) = $5,000
Ending Balance of Liability = $15,000
Standard costs are used in companies for a variety of reasons. Which of the following is NOT one of the benefits of using standard costs?
a. to indicate where changes in technology and machinery need to be made
b. to estimate the cost of inventory
c. to plan direct materials, direct labor, and variable factory overhead
d. to control costs
Answer:
a. to indicate where changes in technology and machinery need to be made.
Explanation:
Standard cost in business management refers to the amount of money a product is supposed to cost in manufacturing it. It is a management tool that can be used to measure efficiency in the level of output or production of goods and services at a specific period of time.
In Financial accounting, the difference between the actual cost of each unit of a product and its standard cost is referred to as variance. In order to determine the standard cost of a product, the expected quantity of the product is multiplied by an expected price.
Standard costs are used in companies for a variety of reasons such as;
1. Standard costs are used to estimate the cost of inventory.
2. Standard costs are used to plan direct materials, direct labor, and variable factory overhead.
3. Standard costs are used to control costs.
However, standard costs cannot be used to indicate where changes in technology and machinery need to be made rather an actual cost should be used.
Additionally, the standard cost of each unit of a product manufactured in a business firm is categorized into two (2) and these are;
1. Price standard.
2. Quantity standard.
Walter Utilities is a dividend-paying company and is expected to pay an annual dividend of $1.45 at the end of the year. Its dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.50% per year. If Walter's stock currently trades for $15.00 per share, what is the expected rate of return?
Answer:
Expected return in( %) =16.80 %
Explanation:
The Dividend Valuation Model (DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset.
According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.
If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the expected return on share can be determined as follows:
Ke=Do (1+g)/P + g
Do - dividend in the following year, Ke- requited rate of return , g- growth rate, P-price
DATA:
Do- 1.45
g- 6.5%
P- price
Ke = (1.45× (1.065)/15) + 0.065= 0.16795
Return in % = 0.16795 × 100 = 16.80 %
Return in( %) =16.80 %

Group of answer choices:
A. increase competition.
B. expand the profit pool.
C. provide better customer service.
D. satisfy regulators
Answer:
B. expand the profit pool.
Explanation:
Outside the flight experience itself, airlines are generating revenue by charging fees for credit cards, frequent-flyer programs, and access to airport lounges. This serves to expand the profit pool.
Generally, all business entities are typically set up to generate revenues by engaging or increasing the number of services being offered to potential customers and as a result of this, make more money or profits.
In this scenario, the airline company has diversified its portfolios through the provision of services centered around the transport or logistics business such as use of credit cards as a means of payment by the customers, use of airport lounges as relaxation spot, waiting area and use of frequent-flyer programs as a form of advert in the airport or on board.
Joe must pay liabilities of 1,000 due 6 months from now and another 1,000 due one year from now. There are two available investments: \,1. Bond I: a 6-month bond with face amount of 1,000, a 8% nominal annual coupon rate convertible semiannually, and a 6% nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually; and \,2. Bond II: a one year bond with face amount of 1,000, a 5% nominal annual coupon rate convertible semiannually, and a 7% nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually Calculate the amount of each bond Joe should purchase in order to exactly match the liabilities.
Answer:
future liabilities:
$1,000 in 6 months
$1,000 in 1 year
Present value of bond I (due in 6 months):
PV = $1,000 / (1 + 3%) = $970.87
Present value of bond II (due in 1 year):
PV = $1,000 / (1 + 3.5%)² = $933.51
The price of the bonds is determined by the annual yield rate (YTM), not the coupon rate. Joe will pay $970.87 for bond I and $933.51 for bond II.

Craig's Car Wash Inc. is considering a project that has the following cash flow and WACC data. What is the project's discounted payback?
WACC: 10.00%
Year : Cash flows
0 : -$900
1 : $500
2 : $500
3 : $500
Answer:
Discounted payback period= 2 years 1 month
Explanation:
The discounted payback period is the estimated length of time in years it takes the present value of net cash inflow from a project to equate the net cash the initial cost
To work out the discounted payback period, we will compute present value of the cash inflow and then determine how long it will take for the sum to be equal to the initial cost. This is done as follows:
Year Cash flow DF Present value
0 900 × 1 = 900
1 500 × 1.1^(-1) = 454.55
2 500 × 1.1^(-2) = 413.22
2 500 × 1.1^(-3) = 375.66
Total PV for 2 years = 454.55 + 413.22 = 867.77
Balance of cash flow remaining to equal 900 = 900 -867.77 = 32.23

Martin Enterprises needs someone to supply it with 118,000 cartons of machine screws per year to support its manufacturing needs over the next five years, and you've decided to bid on the contract. It will cost you $785,000 to install the equipment necessary to start production costs will be $415,000 per year, and your variable production costs should be $10.05 per carton. You also need an initial investment in net working capitalof $68,000.If your tax rate is 24 percent and you require a return of 12 percent on your investment, whar bid price should you submit?
Answer:
$15.66 per carton
Explanation:
118,000 cartons of machine screws
equipment cost $785,000
depreciation per year = $785,000 / 5 = $157,000
fixed manufacturing costs $415,000 per year
variable costs per carton = $10.05 x 118,000 = $1,185,900
initial investment in net working capital $68,000
tax rate 24%
discount rate 12%
price per carton?
initial investment = -$853,000
CF₁ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320
CF₂ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320
CF₃ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320
CF₄ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 = 0.76R - $1,178,320
CF₅ = [(R - $1,600,000 - $157,000) x 0.76] + $157,000 + $68,000 = 0.76R + $1,110,320
$853,000 = (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12 + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12² + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12³ + (0.76R - $1,178,320) / 1.12⁴ + (0.76R + $1,110,320 ) / 1.12⁵ = 0.6786R - $1,052,071.43 + 0.6059R - $939,349.49 + 0.541R - $838,704.90 + 0.483R - $748,943.66 + 0.4312R + $630,025.39
$853,000 = 2.7397R - $4,209,094.87
$5,062,094.87 = 2.7397R
R = $5,062,094.87 / 2.7397 = $1,847,682.18
total revenue = $1,847,682.18
revenue per carton = $1,847,682.18 / 118,000 = $15.6583 = $15.66
If the marginal propensity to consume equals , the tax rate equals , and the marginal propensity to import equals , what is the value of the government purchases multiplier?
Answer: 1.90
Explanation:
The Government Purchases Multiplier given the variables is given by the expression;
Government Purchases Multiplier = [tex]\frac{1}{1 -(MPC ( 1 -T) - MPI)}[/tex]
Where MPC is the Marginal Propensity to Consume,
T is tax rate and,
MPI is the Marginal Propensity to Import
Government Purchases Multiplier = [tex]\frac{1}{1 -(MPC ( 1 -T) - MPI)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{1 -(0.9 ( 1 -0.25) - 0.2)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{ 1 - 0.475}[/tex]
= 1.90
