Solution :
[tex]U(A, B) = 5A + 2B[/tex]
a). Bundles [tex](40, 5)[/tex] = U ( _____ , 2), lie on the same indifference curve. Suppose missing numbers is x.
So, [tex]U(40, 5) = U(x, 2)[/tex]
(40 x 5) + (2 x 5) = 50x + (2 x 2)
210 - 4 = 5x
[tex]x = 41.2[/tex]
So Alexander has [tex]40[/tex] apples and [tex]5[/tex] bananas. The indifference curve though [tex](40, 5)[/tex] also include bundle.
Therefore, (41.2, 2)
b). [tex]$MRS_{BA} = \frac{MU_B}{MU_A}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{\delta U/\delta B}{\delta U/\delta A}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{2}{5}$[/tex]
= 0.4
So Alexander has [tex]40[/tex] apples and [tex]5[/tex] bananas with this bundle. Alexander would like to give up [tex]0.4[/tex] unit apples for a banana.
Ultimo Co. operates three production departments as profit centers. The following information is available for its most recent year. Which department has the greatest departmental contribution to overhead (in dollars) and what is the amount contributed
Answer: Department 3 had the greatest contribution to overhead of $362,000
Explanation:
Contribution to overhead = Sales - Cost of Goods sold - Direct expense
Department 1:
= 1,140,000 - 714,000 - 114,000
= $312,000
Department 2:
= 540,000 - 164,000 - 54,000
= $322,000
Department 3:
= 840,000 - 314,000 - 164,000
= $362,000

When comparing the results of using the direct, sequential, and reciprocal services methods of allocating support department costs to production departments, which of the following statements is true for a manufacturing company that has a total of $1,500,000 in support costs to allocate?
a.The reciprocal services method allocates more than $1,500,000 to the production departments.
b.The reciprocal services method can be viewed as a compromise on accuracy and difficulty in allocating the $1,500,000 because it considers some, though not all, inter-support-department services and is easier to compute than the direct method.
c.The direct method yields the most accurate allocation of the $1,500,000.
d.The sequential method can be viewed as a compromise on accuracy and difficulty in allocating the $1,500,000 because it considers some, though not all, inter-support-department services and is easier to compute than the reciprocal services method.
Answer: d. The sequential method can be viewed as a compromise on accuracy and difficulty in allocating the $1,500,000 because it considers some, though not all, inter-support-department services and is easier to compute than the reciprocal services method
Explanation:
For a a manufacturing company that has a total of $1,500,000 in support costs to allocate, it should be noted that the sequential method can be viewed as a compromise on accuracy and difficulty in allocating the $1,500,000 because it considers some, though not all, inter-support-department services and is easier to compute than the reciprocal services method
A rods manufacturer makes rods with a length that is supposed to be 11 inches. A quality control technician sampled 40 rods and found that the sample mean length was 11.05 inches and the sample standard deviation was 0.21 inches. The technician claims that the mean rod length is more than 11 inches.
1. What type of hypothesis test should be performed?
2. What is the test statistic?
3. What is the number of degrees of freedom?
4. Does sufficient evidence exist at the α=0.01 significance level to support the technician's claim?
Answer:
H0 : μ = 11
H0 : μ > 11 ;
Test statistic = 1.506
Degree of freedom = 39
There isn't sufficient evidence to conclude that mean length of rod is greater than 11.05 inches
Explanation:
Given :
Mean length, μ = 11
Sample Standard deviation, s = 0.21
Sample mean, xbar = 11.05
Sample size, n = 40
The hypothesis :
H0 : μ = 11
H0 : μ > 11
The test statistic :
This a one sample t test :
Hence, test statistic would be :
T = (xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))
T = (11.05 - 11) ÷ (0.21/√(40))
T = 0.05 / 0.0332039
T = 1.506
The degree of freedom ; df ;
df = n - 1 ; df = 40 - 1 = 39
The Critical value ;
Tcritical(0.01, 39) = 2.426
Decision region :
Reject H0 if Test statistic > TCritical
Since 1.506 < 2.426 ; WE fail to reject H0 and conclude that there isn't sufficient evidence to conclude that mean length of rod is greater than 11.05 inches
Riverbed Corporation purchased machinery on January 1, 2022, at a cost of $278,000. The estimated useful life of the machinery is 4 years, with an estimated salvage value at the end of that period of $32,800. The company is considering different depreciation methods that could be used for financial reporting purposes.
Required:
Prepare separate depreciation schedules for the machinery using the straight-line method, and the declining-balance method using double the straight-line rate.
Answer:
a. Under straight-line method, annual depreciation expenses are as follows:
Year Annual depreciation expense ($)
2022 61,300
2023 61,300
2024 61,300
2025 61,300
b. Under the declining-balance method using double the straight-line rate, annual depreciation expenses are as follows:
Year Annual depreciation expense ($)
2022 139,000
2023 69,500
2024 34,750
2025 1,950
Explanation:
a. Prepare a separate depreciation schedule for the machinery using the straight-line method.
Note: See part a of the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for Straight-line method.
In the attached excel file, the depreciation rate used for the Straight-line method is calculated as follows:
Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Estimated useful life = 1 / 4 = 0.25, or 25%
From part a of the attached excel file, we have:
Year Annual depreciation expense ($)
2022 61,300
2023 61,300
2024 61,300
2025 61,300
b. Prepare a separate depreciation schedule for the machinery using the declining-balance method using double the straight-line rate.
Note: See part b of the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for double-declining-balance method.
In the attached excel file, the depreciation rate used for the Double declining-balance method is calculated as follows:
Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = 25% * 2 = 50%
From part b of the attached excel file, we have:
Year Annual depreciation expense ($)
2022 139,000
2023 69,500
2024 34,750
2025 1,950
Note:
Under this double-declining-balance method, the depreciation expenses for 2025 is calculated by deducting the salvage value of $32,800 from the 2025 Beginning depreciable amount (i.e. $34,750 - $32,800 = $1,950). The residual value of $32,800 therefore represents the book value on December 31, 2025.

2. You and your wife are making plans for retirement. You plan on living 30 years after you retire and would like to have $90,000 annually on which to live. Your first withdrawal will be made one year after you retire and you anticipate that your retirement account will earn 15% annually.
a. What amount do you need in your retirement account the day you retire? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
b. Assume that your first withdrawal will be made the day you retire. Under this assumption, what amount do you now need in your retirement account the day you retire? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
1-a. What amount will be in your account at the end of 6 years? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Since you plan to make your first deposit one year from today, this can be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:
FV = D * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (1)
Where,
FV = Future value or the amount that will be in your account at the end of 6 years = ?
D = Annual deposit = $1,800
r = Annual return rate = 3%, or 0.03
n = number of periods = 6
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $1,800 * (((1 + 0.03)^6 - 1) / 0.03) = $11,643.14
Therefore, the amount that will be in your account at the end of 6 years is $11,643.14.
1-b. Assume that your deposits will begin today. What amount will be in your account after 6 years? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Since it is assumed that your deposits will begin today, this can be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Annuity Due as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) * (1 + r) ................................. (2)
Where,
FV = Future value or the amount that will be in your account at the end of 6 years = ?
D = Annual deposit = $1,800
r = Annual return rate = 3%, or 0.03
n = number of years = 6
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
FV = $1,800 * (((1 + 0.03)^6 - 1) / 0.03) * (1 + 0.03) = $11,992.43
Therefore, the amount that will be in your account at the end of 6 years is $11,992.43.
2-a. What amount do you need in your retirement account the day you retire? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Since your first withdrawal will be made one year after you retire, this can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (3)
Where:
PV = Present value or the amount you need in your retirement account the day you retire = ?
P = Annual withdrawal = $90,000
r = Annual return rate = 15%, or 0.15
n = number of years = 30
Substituting the values into equation (3), we have:
PV = $90,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.15))^30) / 0.15) = $590,938.17
Therefore, the amount you need in your retirement account the day you retire is $590,938.17.
2-b. Assume that your first withdrawal will be made the day you retire. Under this assumption, what amount do you now need in your retirement account the day you retire? Round your answer to the nearest cent. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Since it is assumed that that your first withdrawal will be made the day you retire, this can be determined using the formula for calculating the present value of an annuity due as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) * (1 + r) …………………………………. (4)
Where:
PV = Present value or the amount you need in your retirement account the day you retire = ?
P = Annual withdrawal = $90,000
r = Annual return rate = 15%, or 0.15
n = number of years = 30
Substituting the values into equation (4), we have:
PV = $90,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.15))^30) / 0.15) (1 + 0.15) = $679,578.89
Therefore, the amount you need in your retirement account the day you retire is $679,578.89.

a) What is the expected return for Apple next year?
b) What is the standard deviation of returns for Apple next year?
Answer:
a. 1.75%b. 14.10%Explanation:
a. Expected return:
This will be a weighted average of the returns in different states.
= (25% * 15%) + (25% * -22%) + (50% * 7%)
= 1.75%
b. Standard deviation:
= √ Variance
= √(25% * (15% - 1.75%)²) + (25% * (-22% - 1.75%)²) + (50% * (7% - 1.75%)²)
= √0.01986875
= 14.10%
asino Inc. expects to pay a dividend of $3 per share at the end of year 1 (Div1) and these dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 6 percent per year forever. If the required rate of return on the stock is 18 percent, what is the current value of the stock today?
Answer:
the current stock of the value today is $25
Explanation:
The computation of the current stock of the value today is shown below:
Next year dividend D1 = $3
growth rate g =6% forever
rate of return = 18%
So,
Current Stock Price P = D1 ÷ (r - g)
=3 ÷ (18% - 6%)
= 3 ÷ 12%
= 3 ÷ 0.12
= $25
Hence, the current stock of the value today is $25

The first three cars I bought all fell apart around 50,000 miles. It was called planned obsolescence and no one seemed to care until companies entered the market and promised 70,000, then 80,000, and finally 100,000 warranties. What sets a great car apart from a good one now is not the quality, which is assumed, but performance, safety and fuel economy. A car that can achieve all three is highly sought after. In the automotive market, performance, safety and fuel economy are sterling examples of:
Answer:
Order Winners
Explanation:
Order winners basically mean the winning attributes that customers will seek in order to successfully buy a product.
This is in fact because a customer's decision in buying a product is based on the value for money, so things such as price, availability, performance, and design are things to be considered by customers before deciding on the product.
As in the case above, the winning attributes in making a car great are performance, safety, and fuel economy. If such is found in a car then it would lead the car to be highly sought by the customers.
g If there is a breach of contract, the objective of the remedy in the breach contract case will be to: Question 21 options: place the parties back into the position that they would have been in had there been no contract punish the party that committed breach of contract provide both parties relief place the non breaching party into the position that they would have been had the contract not been breached
Answer: place the non breaching party into the position that they would have been had the contract not been breached
Explanation:
A contract is meant to satisfy the reasons for which the contract was gone into for both parties. If one party breaches the contract, the party that did not breach should still have their reason for entering the contract satisfied because they did what they were supposed to do according to the contract.
This is why the purpose of a breach of contract remedy is to ensure that this non-breaching party does indeed get what was supposed to come to them by the contract.

MC Qu. 123 Fallow Corporation has... Fallow Corporation has two separate profit centers. The following information is available for the most recent year: West Division East Division Sales (net) $450,000 $600,000 Salary expense 51,000 65,000 Cost of goods sold 155,000 275,000 The West Division occupies 11,250 square feet in the plant. The East Division occupies 6,750 square feet. Rent, which was $ 90,000 for the year, is an indirect expense and is allocated based on square footage. Compute operating income for the West Division.
Answer:
$187,750
Explanation:
Computation for operating income for the West Division.
OPERATING INCOME FOR THE WEST DIVISION
Sales $450,000
Less Cost of goods sold ($155,000)
Gross profit $295,000
($450,000-155,000)
Less: Salary Expense ($51,000)
Allocated rent ($56,250)
($90,000 * 11250/18,000)
West Division income $187,750
Total area of both division = 11,250 + 6,750 = 18,000 square feet

Harrison Ford Company has been approached by a new customer with an offer to purchase 10,000 units of its model IJ5 at a price of $4.00 each. The new customer is geographically separated from the company's other customers, and existing sales would not be affected. Harrison normally produces 75,000 units of IJ5 per year but only plans to produce and sell 60,000 in the coming year. The normal sales price is $12 per unit. Unit cost information for the normal level of activity is as follows:
Direct Materials $1.75
Direct Labor 2.50
Variable Overhead 1.50
Fixed Overhead 3.25
Total $9.00
Required:
a. What are the relevant costs and benefits of the two alternatives (accept or reject the special order)?
b. By how much will operating income increase or decrease if the order is accepted?
Answer:
a. The relevant costs and benefits of the two alternatives are as follows:
Relevant costs = $57,500
Relevant benefits = $40,000
b. Operating income will decrease if the order is accepted by $17,500.
Explanation:
a. What are the relevant costs and benefits of the two alternatives (accept or reject the special order)?
Note that accepting the special order will increase the planned production from 60,000 to 70,00. Since this still lower than normal 75,000 units of production, this implies that Fixed Overhead will not be incurred when the order is accepted. Therefore, the Fixed Overhead is not relevant in this situation.
Therefore, the relevant costs and benefits of the two alternatives are as follows:
Relevant costs = Units of special order * (Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Variable Overhead) = 10,000 * ($1.75 + $2.50 + $1.50) = $57,500
Relevant benefits = Revenue from the special order = Units of special order * Unit price of special order = $10,000 * $4 = $40,000
b. By how much will operating income increase or decrease if the order is accepted?
Amount of decrease in operating income = Relevant costs - Relevant benefits = $57,500 - $40,000 = $17,500
Since the relevant costs will greater than the relevant benefits, it can be observed from the calculation above that operating income will decrease if the order is accepted by $17,500.
(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) Your Company has a truck that needs a new engine that would cost $35,000. This will extend the useful life of the truck by 5 years. As an alternative, Your Company could buy a brand new truck for $120,000. The new truck would also last 5 years. The annual operating expenses of the old truck are $8,500. The annual operating expenses of the new truck will only be $5,000. The old truck has a salvage value of $12,000 now and $3,500 in 5 years. The new truck is expected to have a $10,000 salvage value in 5 years. Your Company discount rate is 6%. What is the net present value of the decision to buy the new truck instead of repairing the old truck
Answer:
Hence the net cost to the company is 68,160.
NPV to buy a new truck instead of repairing
NPV = -65390
Explanation:
Step 1:-
P.V. of Old Truck Repaired
Given
Discount rate = 6%
New engine = 35000
Life = 5 years
Annual operating expenses = 8500
Salvage (after 5 years)= 3500
Step 2:-
Repair
Net Cost to company = Cost + Annual operating expenses x P.V. Annuity
Factor (6%, 5) - Salvage value x P.V. Intrinsic
Factor (6%, 5)
P.V.A.F. (6%, 5)= [tex]\sum_{5}^{1}1 / (1.06)^{n} = 4.21[/tex]
n = 4.21
P.V.I.F. (6%, 5) = [tex]1/ (1.06)^{5} =0.75[/tex]
Net Cost to company: = 35000 + 8500 x 4.21 - 3500 x 0.75
= 35000 + 35785 - 2625
= 68,160
P.V. of New truck purchased
New Truck
Cost = 120000
Discount rate = 6%
Life = 5 years
Annual operating expenses = 5000
Salvage (after 5 years)= 10000
Net Cost to company: = Cost + Annual operating expenses x P.V. Annuity
Factor (6%, 5) - Salvage value x P.V. Intrinsic
Factor (6%, 5)
= 120000 + 5000 x 4.21 - 10000 x 0.75
= 120000 + 21050 - 7500
= 133550
NPV to buy a new truck instead of repairing
NPV = Net cost of repairing - Net cost of new truck
= 68160 - 133550
= -65390
If a firm has a cash cycle of 30 days and an operating cycle of 64 days, what is its average payment period
Answer: 34 days
Explanation:
The average payment period is a measure that is used to show the time the firm takes on average to pay its creditors.
The formula is:
Cash cycle = Operating cycle - Average payment period
30 = 64 - APP
APP + 30 = 64
APP = 64 - 30
APP = 34 days
The following standards for variable manufacturing overhead have been established for a company that makes only one product: The following data pertain to operations for the last month: What was the variable overhead efficiency/quantity variance for the month? Group of answer choices
Answer:
$17,871 U
Explanation:
Note The missing word have been attached as picture below
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (Standard hour - Actual hour) * Standard rate
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (1,480 hours - 2,775 hours) * $13.80
Variable overhead efficiency variance = 1,295 hours * $13.80
Variable overhead efficiency variance = $17,871 U
Which of the following The holding-period return (HPR) on a share of stock is equal to(s) the level of real interest rates? I) The supply of savings by households and business firms II) The demand for investment funds III) The government's net supply and/or demand for funds
Answer: D. I, II, and III.
Explanation:
The demand for investment funds determines the demand for loanable funds and when this is higher than the supply, the rate increases. The reverse it true. It therefore affects real interest rates.
The savings of households and business firms are the source of loanable funds so if these are high relative to demand, the rate will decrease. The reverse is true.
Government demand for funds will increase interest rates as the supply will decrease when the government borrows massively. The reverse is true.
All three therefore impart real interest rates.
Corris Co. accumulates the following data concerning a mixed cost, using miles as the activity level. Miles Driven Total Cost January 10,000 $17,000 February 8,000 13,500 March 9,000 14,400 April 7,000 12,500 Compute the variable and fixed cost elements using the high-low method. (Round variable cost to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Miles Driven Total Cost
January 10,000 $17,000
February 8,000 13,500
March 9,000 14,400
April 7,000 12,500
To calculate the variable cost per unit and the total fixed cost, we need to use the following formula:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (17,000 - 12,500) / (10,000 - 7,000)
Variable cost per unit= $1.5
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 17,000 - (1.5*10,000)
Fixed costs= $2,000
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 12,500 - (1.5*7,000)
Fixed costs= $2,000

Add: Purchases of direct materials $36,000
Less: Raw materials,ending -$21,000
Direct materials used $42,000
Direct labor $60,000
Factory overhead costs $84,000
Total manufacturing costs added to production $186,000
At the beginning of the period, the Cutting Department budgeted direct labor of $125,000, direct materials of $151,000 and fixed factory overhead of $11,800 for 8,000 hours of production. The department actually completed 10,600 hours of production. What is the appropriate total budget for the department, assuming it uses flexible budgeting? Round hourly rates to two decimal places. Round interim calculations to two decimal places. Round your final answer to the nearest dollar. a.$381,335 b.$377,606 c.$291,635 d.$287,800
Answer:
the appropriate total budget should be $377,500
Explanation:
The computation of the appropriate total budget should be given below:
Direct material ($151,000 ÷ 8,000 × 10,600) $200,075
direct labor ($125,000 ÷ 8,000 × 10,600) $165,625
fixed factory overhead $11,800
Total budget cost 377,500
Hence, the appropriate total budget should be $377,500
