Sara works at a printing company. She and her colleagues have to stagger
their tasks carefully because each of their projects require not only the
printers, but other equipment as well. Sara is currently working to fulfill an
order for 5,000 flyers, which are due tomorrow. Her customer just called to
say that they need additional 5,000 flyers.
What will be least important to Sara as she determines whether her company
can accommodate the request?
A. Whether her company has enough paper on hand
B. Whether her company can print the additional flyers without
negatively affecting the other projects
C. Whether there is enough time to print the additional flyers by
tomorrow
D. Why the customer needs 5,000 extra flyers
Answer: D. Why the customer needs 5,000 extra flyers
Explanation:
The important factors that Sara will consider to know whether her company can accommodate the request are:
• Whether her company has enough paper on hand
• Whether her company can print the additional flyers without negatively affecting the other projects
• Whether there is enough time to print the additional flyers by tomorrow.
These factors above are important as they'll determine if she can accept the request or not. For example, in a situation where there's no enough paper, then the request should not be accepted.
The least important factor for Sara to consider will be "Why the customer needs 5,000 extra flyers". This is not of concern to Sara and shouldn't bother her.
Answer:
D. why the customer needs 5,000 extra flyers
An outside supplier has offered to sell the company all of these parts it needs for $48.50 a unit. If the company accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to make the part could be used to make more units of a product that is in high demand. The additional contribution margin on this other product would be $273,000 per year. If the part were purchased from the outside supplier, all of the direct labor cost of the part would be avoided. However, $8.20 of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost being applied to the part would continue even if the part were purchased from the outside supplier. This fixed manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to the company's remaining products. What is the maximum amount the company should be willing to pay an outside supplier per unit for the part if the supplier commits to supplying all 70,000 units required each year
Answer:
the maximum amount that willing to pay is $99.10
Explanation:
The computation of the maximum amount that willing to pay is shown below:
Here the maximum per unit is
= $48.50 + (($17.80 + $19 + $1 + $17.10 - $8.20) × 70,000 units + $273,000) ÷ 70,000 units
= $48.50 + (($46.70 × 70,000 units) + $273,000) ÷ 70,000 units
= $48.50 + $50.60
= $99.10
hence, the maximum amount that willing to pay is $99.10

Information on the prior year's operations (sales and production Model A1) is presented below: Sales price per unit $30 Costs per unit: Direct material 7 Direct labor 4 Overhead (50% variable) 6 Selling costs (40% variable) 10 Production in units 10,000 Sales in units 9,500 Refer to Henderson Electronics Corporation. Assume that the remaining Model A1 radios can be sold through normal channels or to a foreign buyer for $6 per unit. If sold through regular channels, the minimum acceptable price will be
Answer:
the minimum acceptable price is $4
Explanation:
The computation of the minimum acceptable price is shown below:
Here the minimum acceptable price would be considered as a variable selling cost i.e. calculated below:
= Selling cost × variable percentage
= $10 × 40%
= $4
hence, the minimum acceptable price is $4
The same would be considered and relevant too
Suppose that low-skilled workers employed in clearing woodland can each clear one acre per month if each is equipped with a shovel, a machete, and a chainsaw. Clearing one acre brings in $1,000 in revenue. Each worker’s equipment costs the worker’s employer $150 per month to rent and each worker toils 40 hours per week for four weeks each month. a. What is the marginal revenue product of hiring one low-skilled worker to clear woodland for one month?
Answer: $1000
Explanation:
Marginal Revenue Product simply refers to the additional revenue that's gotten when one or more unit of input is used. It is the marginal revenue that us gotten as a result of additional resource.
From the question, we are informed that clearing one acre brings in $1,000 in revenue, therefore the marginal revenue product of hiring one low-skilled worker to clear woodland for one month is $1000

The master budget of Sheridan Company shows that the planned activity level for next year is expected to be 50000 machine hours. At this level of activity, the following manufacturing overhead costs are expected: Indirect labor $720000 Machine supplies 180000 Indirect materials 150000 Depreciation on factory building 90000 Total manufacturing overhead $1140000 A flexible budget for a level of activity of 60000 machine hours would show total manufacturing overhead costs of
Answer:
$1,350,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the total manufacturing overhead costs
First step is to calculate the Variable overhead
Variable overhead= $720,000 + $180,000 +$150,000
Variable overhead=$1,050,000
Second step is to calculate Unitary variable overhead
Unitary variable overhead= $1,050,000/50,000
Unitary variable overhead= 21
Now let calculate the total manufacturing overhead costs
For 60,000 units:
Total Manufacturing Overhead Costs = 21*60,000 + 90,000
Total Manufacturing Overhead Costs= $1,350,000
Therefore the total manufacturing overhead costs is $1,350,000
Pella Corp. is headquartered in Carlisle, Wisconsin. Pella has a Wisconsin state income tax base of $434,000. Of this amount, $76,800 was nonbusiness income. Pella's Wisconsin apportionment factor is 28.52 percent. The nonbusiness income allocated to Wisconsin was $61,900. Assuming a Wisconsin corporate tax rate of 7.75 percent, what is Pella's Wisconsin state tax liability
Answer:
$12,642
Explanation:
The computation of the state tax liability is given below:
Tax Liability is
= [{(Income Tax Base - Non Business Income) × Apportionment Factor} + Allocated Non- business Income] × tax rate
= [{($434,000 - $76,800) × 0.2852} + $61,900] x 0.0775
= [$101,873.44 + $61,250] × 0.0775
= 163,123.44 × 0.0775
= $12,642
Rare earth metals are used in the production of many of the personal electronic devices you use every day. Suppose there is an unexpected decrease in the price of rare earth metals. a. The decrease in price of rare earth metals will lead to negative cost-push inflation. demand-pull inflation. an increase in expected inflation. negative demand-pull inflation. b. Illustrate the effect of the decrease in the price of rare earth metals by making the appropriate adjustments to the Phillips curve.
Answer:
a. negative cost-push inflation
b. Phillips Curve will shift right
Explanation:
a. Cost push inflation occurs when the costs of inputs such as wages and material costs increases. This leads to an increase in prices because producers will have to increase prices to make a profit.
In this scenario, material prices dropped instead of increasing. A negative cost-push inflation will therefore happen.
b. This will lead to a shift right in the Phillips curve to reflect that inflation has fallen. It will increase the output gap between Potential and Actual GDP because a lower inflation means more unemployment which means the economy is shrinking.
The black dot will shift right to (0, -2)

Evan is single and has AGI of $277,300 in 2020. His potential itemized deductions before any limitations for the year total $52,300 and consist of the following: Medical expenses (before the AGI limitation) $29,000 Interest on home mortgage 8,700 State income taxes 9,500 Real estate taxes 3,600 Charitable contributions 2,500 After all necessary adjustments are made, what is the amount of itemized deductions Evan may claim
Answer:
$24,402.50
Explanation:
Medical expenses can be deducted only if they are above 7.5% of your AGI:
$277,300 x 7.5% = $20,797.50
Medical deductions = $29,000 - $20,797.50 = $8,202.50
Evan can deduct $8,700 in mortgage interests
Total deductions for state and local taxes for a single filer = $5,000
Charitable contributions are also deductible = $2,500
total deductions = $8,202.50 + $8,700 + $5,000 + $2,500 = $24,402.50
Sam and Sarah are thinking about getting married. However if either of them cheats on the other, they would get a payoff of 10, while the other person gets zero. If neither cheat, they stay with each other and get a payoff of 7 each and if both cheat, the relationship falls apart and each get a payoff of 1. What is the Nash equilibrium of this game?
Answer:
Self-interest can sometimes lead to sub-optimal outcomes.
Explanation:
In the field of economics, Nash equilibrium can be defined as the system which is stable and it involves the interaction of various participants where no participant can gain by the unilateral change in its strategy if the strategies of the others does not change. In order words, the player can obtain the desired outcome by not deviating or changing from their initial strategy.
In the context, as the outcome of cheating is more than staying together, both Sam and Sarah will tend to cheat and then end up achieving less payoff then what they will get if they stay together.
Therefore, sometimes, self interest can lead to the sub optimal outcomes.

Answer:
COGS= $886,530
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary production cost:
unitary production cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead
unitary production cost= (6*2) + (2.9*21) + (2.9*10)
unitary production cost= $101.9
Now, the cost of goods sold:
COGS= number of units sold*unitary production cost
COGS= 8,700*101.9
COGS= $886,530
Although ZipCar has some routine operating tasks, its rules and regulations are, for the most part, not strict. ZipCar's decision making does not follow a strict chain of command, and first-line customer service agents have the authority to make decisions without management approval. This information primarily indicates that ZipCar lacks ________. a organizational culture b cross-functional teams c bureaucratic characteristics d cost controls e strategic alliances
Answer: bureaucratic characteristics
Explanation:
From the information given, we can say that ZipCar lacks bureaucratic characteristics. A bureaucratic organization is an organization with several layers of systems and processes and this brings about complexity and delay in decision making as it is hierarchical.
Since ZipCar's decision making does not follow a strict chain of command, and the first-line customer service agents have the authority to make decisions without management approval, this shows that the organization lacks bureaucratic characteristics.

Firms HL and LL are identical except for their financial leverage ratios and the interest rates they pay on debt. Each has $23 million in invested capital, has $3.45 million of EBIT, and is in the 25% federal-plus-state tax bracket. Firm HL, however, has a debt-to-capital ratio of 50% and pays 12% interest on its debt, whereas LL has a 30% debt-to-capital ratio and pays only 10% interest on its debt. Neither firm uses preferred stock in its capital structure. Calculate the return on invested capital (ROIC) for each firm. Round your answers to two decimal places.
Answer:
ROIC for firm HL = 11.25%
ROIC for firm LL = 11.25%
Explanation:
Given:
EBIT = $3,450,000
Tax rate = 25%
Invested capital = $23,000,000
Note that the information above is the same for both firms HL and LL. This implies that their ROIC will be the same as calculated below:
ROIC = (EBIT * (100% - Tax rate)) / Invested capital ……………………. (1)
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
ROIC = ($3,450,000 * (100% - 25%)) / $23,000,000 = 0.1125, or 11.25%
Therefore, we have:
ROIC for firm HL = 11.25%
ROIC for firm LL = 11.25%

Money multiplier= 10
2. Calculation to determine The money supply
Money supply =10 x 100 billion dollars
Money supply = 1000 billion dollars.
3. Calculation to determine the change in reserves and the change in the money supply
First step is to calculate the money multiplier wmoney multiplier= 1/ 0.20 = 5
Now let calculate the change in reserves
change in reserves = 100 billion dollars x 5
change in reserves = 500 billion dollars
4. Decline in the money supply =1000 billion dollars - 500 billion dollars = 500 billion dollars.
You have been hired by KOKO MESSIAH GROUP to lead its local and international expansion efforts. Considering that KOKO MESSIAH GROUP already has products which its markets on a small scale locally, it has become imperative that it makes additions to its current product variants, as well as promote these new and existing products in markets other than its existing markets. Propose four relevant strategies and the key marketing mix decisions you have to make in achieving its expansion objectives.
Answer:
Explanation:
The marketing mix is the set of controllable, tactical marketing tools that a company uses to produce a desired response from its target market. It consists of everything that a company can do to influence demand for its product. It is also a tool to help marketing planning and execution.
The four Ps of marketing: product, price, place and promotion
The marketing mix can be divided into four groups of variables commonly known as the four Ps:
Product: The goods and/or services offered by a company to its customers.
Price: The amount of money paid by customers to purchase the product.
Place (or distribution): The activities that make the product available to consumers.
Promotion: The activities that communicate the product’s features and benefits and persuade customers to purchase the product.
Marketing tools
Each of the four Ps has its own tools to contribute to the marketing mix:
Product: variety, quality, design, features, brand name, packaging, services
Price: list price, discounts, allowance, payment period, credit terms
Place: channels, coverage, assortments, locations, inventory, transportation, logistics
Promotion: advertising, personal selling, sales promotion, public relations
Marketing strategy
An effective marketing strategy combines the 4 Ps of the marketing mix. It is designed to meet the company’s marketing objectives by providing its customers with value.
The 4 Ps of the marketing mix are related, and combine to establish the product’s position within its target markets.

Harold Reese must choose between two bonds: Bond X pays $82 annual interest and has a market value of $710. It has 10 years to maturity. Bond Z pays $88 annual interest and has a market value of $750. It has five years to maturity. Assume the par value of the bonds is $1,000.
a. Compute the current yield on both bonds.
b. Which bond should he select based on your answers to part a?
c. A drawback of current yield is that it does not consider the total life of the bond. For example, the approximate yield to maturity on Bond X is 13.44 percent. What is the approximate yield to maturity on Bond Z? The exact yield to maturity?
Answer:
a) For Bond X = 11.55%
For Bond Z = 11.73 %
b) Bond Z
c) Approximate YTM = 15.77%
Exact yield to maturity = 16.53 %
Explanation:
Bond X : pays $82 annual interest , market value = $710 and years to maturity =10
Bond Z: pays $88 annual interest, market value = $750 , Years to maturity= 5
par value of bonds = $1000
a) Current yield on both bonds
For Bond X : annual interest / market value = 82 / 710 = 11.55%
For Bond Z : Annual interest / market value = 88 / 750 = 11.73%
b) The Bond that should be selected = Bond Z
C) Calculate the approximate yield to maturity on Bond Z and exact yield to maturity
i) Yield to maturity on Bond Z
[C + (Par Value - Current Value) / n] / (Par Value + Current Value) / 2
where: C = 88 , par value = 1000, Current value = $750, n = 2
∴ YTM on Bond Z = 0.1577 = 15.77%
ii) Exact yield to maturity = 16.53 %

Take a deck of playing cards and remove the aces, jacks, queens, kings, and jokers. Imagine that any remaining card in the deck is a single individual, either a seller or a consumer, and all are gathered at a single perfectly competitive market. Red cards are sellers, and black cards are consumers. The number on a card indicates the individual's WTP or MC. Each seller owns a single unit of an indivisible good. Each consumer can buy at most one unit of the good from a seller. Then the market outcome will be
Answer:
the equilibrium price is 6 and units sold is 10
Explanation:
In the case when we eliminate all the jacks, queens, aces and kings we have a total of 36 card that left with the numbers from 2 to 10
also there are 18 red card of sellers and 18 black card of buyers
Now the following table should be prepared
Price Quantity demanded Quantity supplied
2 18 2
3 16 4
4 14 6
5 12 8
6 10 10
7 8 12
8 6 14
9 4 16
10 2 19
As we can see that at the price of 6 the quantity demanded would be equivalent to the quantity supplied
So, the equilibrium price is 6 and units sold is 10

Malone Co. owned 70% of Bernard Corp.'s common stock. During November 2021, Bernard sold merchandise to Malone for $150,000. At December 31, 2021, 40% of this merchandise remained in Malone's inventory. For 2021, gross profit percentages were 25% of sales for Malone and 30% of sales for Bernard. The amount of intra-entity gross profit remaining in ending inventory at December 31, 2021 that should be eliminated in the consolidation process is: Multiple Choice $18,000. $45,000. $36,000. $11,250. $14,400.
Answer:
$18,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The amount of intra-entity gross profit remaining in ending inventory at December 31, 2021 that should be eliminated in the consolidation process is:.
Using this formula
Intra-Entity Gross Profit =(Transfer Price × Percentage of Bernard's GP) × Intra-Entity Transfers Remaining in Ending Inventory
Let plug in the formula
Intra-Entity Gross Profit=($150,000×30% )×40%
Intra-Entity Gross Profit=$45,000×40%
Intra-Entity Gross Profit=$18,000
Therefore The amount of intra-entity gross profit remaining in ending inventory at December 31, 2021 that should be eliminated in the consolidation process is:$18,000
