CompuGlobal is an American firm producing computers. CompuGlobal imports computer components from Taiwan and assembles them domestically. Suppose that in the United States, a computer sells for $800 and that 60% of the computer’s value comes from the value of the imported components. The United States imposes a 50% tariff on computers and a 10% tariff on the computer’s components. Assume that costs of producing components are the same in the United States and Taiwan and that transit costs are nonexistent. Based on the information provided, the effective rate of protection that CompuGlobal receives from the tariff is
Answer: 110%
Explanation:
The effective rate of protection is used in measuring the final tariff in a particular sector and it's expressed as:
g = (t -ai,ti) / (1 - ai)
where,
g = effective protection rate
ai = nominal tariff rate = 0.6
t = cost of intermediate input = 0.5
ti = nominal tariff on intermediate input = 0.1
The computer price here is $800 while the input price is 60% of $800 which will be:
= 60% × $800 = $480
nominal tariff rate = 480/800 = 0.6
Nominal tariff on final goods, t = 50% = 0.5
Tariff on imported input, ti = 10% = 0.1
Using the formula:
g = (t -ai,ti) / (1 - ai)
g = [0.5 - (0.6×0.1)] / (1 - 0.6)
g = (0.5 - 0.06) / 0.4
g = 0.44/.0.4
g = 1.10
g = 110%
The effective rate of protection is 110%

Answer:
3. The special concept reminded by the phrase "Exchanging Butter Cake for Dates" is:
Trade by barter.
4. The need fulfilled by this business is people's demand for Cake.
The want fulfilled by this business is the organization's supply of dates for its production of cake.
Explanation:
A trade by barter involves the exchange of one good or service by one trading party for another good or service from the coincidental trading party without the use of money or monetary mediums. Trade by barter enables people without money to fulfill their needs. The major problem with trade by barter is that there must be coincidence of wants by the two trading partners. This is not always feasible.
Notes Receivable differ from Accounts Receivable in that Notes Receivable: Multiple Choice generally charge interest from the day they are signed to the day they are collected. do not have to be created for every new transaction, so they are used more frequently. are generally considered a weaker legal claim. are noncurrent assets.
Answer: generally charge interest from the day they are signed to the day they are collected.
Explanation:
Accounts Receivable show that a customer is owing a certain amount of money for goods that they took on credit. The customer gets to pay back a maximum of the amount of goods they actually bought because no interest is charged.
This changes with the Notes Receivable. These accrue interest from the day they are signed such that the customer will then pay the value of the notes receivable as well as the interest that it accrues on the day it is collected.
Notes Receivables are usually used by customers who are unable to pay off the accounts receivables within a certain period and so opt for a note receivable avenue instead.
Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is considering a one-year project that requires an initial investment of $600,000; however, in raising this capital, Green Caterpillar will incur an additional flotation cost of 2%. At the end of the year, the project is expected to produce a cash inflow of $840,000. The rate of return that Green Caterpillar expects to earn on the project after its flotation costs are taken into account is:________
a. 29.80
b. 22.35
c. 37.25
d. 33.53
Answer:
c. 37.25%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Caterpillar expects to earn on the project after its flotation costs are taken into account is
First step
Net investment = Additional investment*(1 + Flotation cost rate)
Net investment= $600,000*(1 + 0.02)
Net investment= $612,000
Now let Compute the rate of return (ROR), using this formula
ROR = (Cash inflows – Net investment)/ Net investment
Let plug in the formula
ROR = ($840,000 - $612,000)/ $612,000
ROR = $228,000/ $612,000
ROR=37.25%
Therefore Caterpillar expects to earn on the project after its flotation costs are taken into account is 37.25%.

a). Bad Debts Expense $50 640
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $50 640
b). Bad Debts Expense $48089.1
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $48089.1
Bad debts:
Bad debts are described as debts that are unable to be recovered from their respective debtors.The key reasons for this could be:
The debtor is bankrupt and cannot pay the amount.The debtor flees away and thus, can't be compelled to pay.The given amounts are obtained as follows:
a). Given that,
Bad debts is 1.5% of credit sales.
Credit Sales = $3,376,000
Bad debts = 1.5% of $3,376,000
∵ Bad debts = 1.5/100 * $3,376,000
= $50 640
b). Given that,
Bad debts = 1 % of total sales.
Total Sales = Credit sale + Cash sale
= $3,376,000 + $1,432,910
= $4808910
Bad debts = 1% of 4808910
∵ Bad debts = 1/100 * $4808910
= $48089.1

The following data relate to direct materials for the month for the Hodge Wax Company: The standard costs for the work done was 5,900 pounds of wax at $9.50 per pound. The actual costs were 6,300 pounds at $9 per pound. What is the direct materials efficiency variance
Answer: $3800 U
Explanation:
The direct material efficiency variance will be calculated as follows:
Direct material efficiency variance = (Standard quantity - Actual quantity) × Standard price of material
= (5900 - 6300) × 9.50
= 400 × 9.50
= $3800 U
Therefore, the direct material efficiency variance is $3800 Unfavorable.

Assume that inflation averages 3.50% over the next 20 years. If Carlos invests $25,000 in an exchange-traded fund within a tax-deferred account and that investment grows to $45,000 at the end of 20 years, will he have maintained his purchasing power
Answer: Yes, because the ETF is worth more than his original investment
Explanation:
From the information given in the question, the average inflation for next 20 years = 3.50%
Amount invested by John = $25,000
Then, the amount in 20 years after the adjustment of inflation will be:
= Amount invested (1+inflation rate)^n
= 25000(1+0.035)^20
= 25000(1.035)^20
= 25000 × 1.9898
= $49745
In this case, the answer is Yes due to the fact that the ETF is worth more than his original investment.

Prepare a depreciation schedule for four years using the straight-line method.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $100,000
Salvage value= $25,000
Useful life= 4 years
To calculate the annual depreciation, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (100,000 - 25,000) / 4
Annual depreciation= $18,750
Year 1:
Annual depreciation= 18,750
Accumulated depreciation= 18,750
Book value= 100,000 - 18,750= 81,250
Year 2:
Annual depreciation= 18,750
Accumulated depreciation= 18,750*2= 37,500
Book value= 100,000 - 37,500= 62,500
Year 3:
Annual depreciation= 18,750
Accumulated depreciation= 18,750*3= 56,250
Book value= 100,000 - 56,250= 43,750
Year 4:
Annual depreciation= 18,750
Accumulated depreciation= 18,750*4= 75,000
Book value= 100,000 - 75,000= 25,000
MC Qu. 74 Differential Chemical produced... Differential Chemical produced 12,000 gallons of Preon and 16,000 gallons of Preon. Joint costs incurred in producing the two products totaled $8,500. At the split-off point, Preon has a market value of $6.00 per gallon and Preon $3.00 per gallon. Compute the portion of the joint costs to be allocated to Preon if the value basis is used.
Answer:
$5,100
Explanation:
The calculation of the portion of the joint cost for Preon allocation is shown below:
= Total joint cost for two products × (Preon cost ÷ Total cost)
Here,
Total joint cost = $8,500
Preon cost = 12,000 gallons × $6 per gallon = $72,000
And, the total cost is
= 12,000 gallons × $6 per gallon + 16,000 gallons × $3 per gallon
= $72,000 + $48,000
= $120,000
So, the allocated cost should be
= $8,500 × ($72,000 ÷ $120,000)
= $5,100
= $4,500

Calculate the total Social Security and Medicare tax burden on a sole proprietorship earning 2020 profit of $300,000, assuming a single sole proprietor with no other earned income.
Answer: $25,802.70
Explanation:
Social security
Social security rates in 2020 for a single sole proprietor is 12.40% on the first $137,700:
= 12.40% * 300,000
= $17,074.80
Medicare Tax
First you need to remove a deduction of 7.65% from the income:
= 300,000 * (1 - 7.65%)
= $277,050
Medicare tax is 2.90% of this adjusted amount in addition to 0.9% for any amount above $200,000:
= (2.90% * 277,050) + (0.9% * (277,050 - 200,000))
= 8,034.45 + 693.45
= $8,727.90
Total Social security and Medicare:
= 17,074.80 + 8,727.9
= $25,802.70
Please calculate GDP using the following information: Government purchases - $200 billion Depreciation - $60 billion Investment - $80 billion Consumption - $600 billion Exports - $100 billion Imports - $120 billion Income receipts from the rest of the world - $10 billion Income payments to the rest of the world - $8 billion
Answer:
The GDP is $860 billion.
Explanation:
The gross domestic product (GDP) can be calculated using the expenditure approach formula as follows:
Y = C + I + G + (X - M) ....................................... (1)
Where:
Y = GDP = ?
C = Consumption = $600 billion
I = Investment - $80 billion
G = Government purchases = $200 billion
X = Exports = $100 billion
M = Imports = $120 billion
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Y = $600 + $80 + $200 + ($100 - $120) = $860 billion
Therefore, the GDP is $860 billion.
A farmer needs to borrow $1,000. The local PCA will make a 2-year loan fully amortized at 10% (annual rate) with quarterly payments. A $10 loan fee and stock purchase is required. The borrower stock requirement is the lesser of $1,000 or 2% of loan principal. Assume that sufficient money is borrowed to cover the $1,000, the fee and the stock requirement. Also assume that the stock requirement is returned to borrower when the loan is paid off and the last debt payment can be reduced by the stock amount. How much money needs to be borrowed
Answer:
the amount required to be borrowed is $1,030.60
Explanation:
The computation of the amount required to be borrowed is given below:
= (Sufficient money + loan fee) ÷ (1 - given percentage)
= ($1,000 + $10) ÷(1 - 0.02)
= $1,030.60
Hence, the amount required to be borrowed is $1,030.60
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could comes and the same should be relevant

Peterson Company estimates that overhead costs for the next year will be $6,520,000 for indirect labor and $550,000 for factory utilities. The company uses machine hours as its overhead allocation base. If 140,000 machine hours are planned for this next year, what is the company's plantwide overhead rate
Answer:
$50.50 per machine-hour
Explanation:
The computation of the company's plantwide overhead rate is shown below:
Estimated Manufacturing Overhead = Estimated Indirect Labor + Estimated Factory Utilities
= $6,520,000 + $550,000
= $7,070,000
and,
Expected Machine-hours = 140,000
So,
Plantwide Overhear Rate = Estimated Manufacturing Overhead ÷ Expected Machine-hours
= $7,070,000 ÷ 140,000
= $50.50 per machine-hour
A Whopper combo meal costs $3.00 and gives you an additional 15 units of utility; a meal at the Embassy Suites costs $29.00 and gives you an additional 145 units of utility. Based solely on the information you have, using the theory of rational choice, you most likely would:
Answer:
be indifferent between the two meals
Explanation:
Marginal utility is the additional satisfaction received from consuming an additional unit of a good or service. Marginal utility is the additional utility derived from consuming one more unit of a good. the consumption decision is to consume more units of a good that gives the higher utility per good.
Marginal utility per good = marginal utility / price of the good
Whopper combo meal = 15 / 3 = 5
a meal at the Embassy Suites = 145 / 29 = 5
both meals have the same marginal utility of 5. She would be indifferent between consuming the two meals
