2. You are considering entry into a market in which there is currently only one producer (incumbent). If you enter and the incumbent prices low (fights) then you will both lose 10 million. If you enter and the incumbent accommodates than you both will earn 3 Million. If you stay out of the market you will earn nothing and the incumbent will earn 7 million. What is the best strategy for you as the entrant in the market.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a.  You should enter if you expect the incumbent to accommodate

Explanation:

If you expect the incumbent to be accommodating then it is best to enter the market because you will earn 3 million along with the incumbent.

This will be a gain for the both of you that has a chance of success because fighting you will be to the detriment of the incumbent as they will then stand to lose 10 million like you will as well.

The option of the incumbent being accommodating is the best option for the both of you.

Cheryl's marginal rate of substitution between apples and bananas is four apples for one banana. If apples are on the vertical axis and bananas are on the horizontal axis, the slope of Cheryl's indifference curve is

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: -4 (minus four).

Explanation:

To begin with, the concept of "Marginal Rate of Substitution" indicates how much of a good a consumer is willing to sacrifice to obtain a unit more of another good without changing the total satisfaction of the consumer. Therefore that this term is explained as the difference between one good and the other and that is why that the concept comprehends the slope of the indifference curve. That is why that if Cheryl's MRS of apples for banas is four then she is willing to sacrifice four apples for one banana and that indicates that the slope of the indiference curve is minus four (-4) because the result is always negative because it shows the sacrifice.

Cobe Company has already manufactured 23,000 units of Product A at a cost of $25 per unit. The 23,000 units can be sold at this stage for $420.000. Alternatively, the units can be further processed at a $280.000 total additional cost and be converted into 6.000 units of Product B and 11,900 units of Product C. Per unit selling price for Product B is $106 and for Product C is $52.
Required:
Prepare an analysis that shows whether the 23,000 units of Product A should be processed further or not.

Answers

Answer:

It is more profitable to continue processing the units.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Product A:

Units= 23,000

Selling price= $420,000

Continue processing:

Product B= 6,000 units sold for $106 each

Product C= 11,900 units sold for $52 each

Total cost= $280,000

We need to calculate the effect on the income of both options and choose the most profitable one. We will not take into account the first costs of Product A because they are irrelevant.

Option 1:

Effect on income= $420,000

Option 2:

Effect on income= (6,000*106) + (11,900*52) - 280,000

Effect on income= $974,800

It is more profitable to continue processing the units.

When using the cost of production report to analyze the change in direct materials cost per equivalent unit compared to conversion cost per equivalent unit, an investigation may reveal that direct materials costs:_____.
a. will never decrease due to the way the cost is calculated.
b. will never increase due to the way the cost is calculated.
c. may increase or decrease between periods, depending on the fluctuation of the cost of the direct materials.
d. will only increase if conversion costs increase as well.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: May increase or decrease between periods, depending on the fluctuation of the cost of the direct materials.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the field of business a manager or an account would perfectly know that when using the cost of production report with the purpose to analyze the change in direct materials costs per equivalent unit compared to conversion cost per unit the investigation will reveal that the direct material costs may increase or decrease between periods, depending on the fluctuation of the cost of those materials due to the fact that the fluctuation mentioned will arise if the company starts using more direct material in the production so that means that the volumen will increase as well as the costs of it

Answers

Answer: . an increase in aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that during the 1990s, the economy of the United States was experiencing long-run economic growth, low unemployment, and a stable inflation rate.

The reason for this is due to an increase in aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply. This two factors will lead to the long run economic growth which the United States experienced.

A mutual fund sponsor has three different income funds, holding AAA rated debt securities with similar maturities. Assuming that the expense ratios for the funds are identical, which fund would have the lowest yield from investment income?

Answers

Answer: C. Municipal Bond Fund

Explanation:

Municipal Bonds would be the fund with the lowest yield from investment income. This is assuming they are all AAA rated debt securities with similar maturities. This is because Municipal bonds are tax exempt and not very risky so their yields will be quoted as less as they do not have to compensate investors on tax losses.

Corporate Bonds are the riskiest of the options given so they will have the highest yield as they have to compensate for both risk and taxes.

Government Bonds are considered very low when it comes to risk but they are taxed by the Federal Government so have higher yields to compensate for tax.

True or False: All other things being equal, firms exhibiting high degrees of operating leverage exhibit lower levels of business risk. This statement is: True False

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

Operating Leverage is used to measure how much a change in sales translates to a change in income. In general, a higher operating leverage means that a small change in sales leads to a higher change in income. This is quite risky because it shows that even a small error when forecasting sales can lead to a larger error in the cash flow that will be expected from the sales. This makes forecasting harder and increases business risk.

Consider the market for minivans (Some would describe a minivan as a family car). Looking at the two statements, which one is true and which one is false? Then again, are they both true or both false? Statement 1: People decide to have fewer children. The demand curve for minivans will shift to the right. Statement 2: The stock market crashes lowering people’s wealth (Hint: Minivan would be considered a normal good). The demand curve for minivans will shift to the right.

Answers

Answer:

both statements are false

Explanation:

if People decide to have fewer children, there would be less demand for minivans as a result the demand curve would shift to the left.

also, if The stock market crashes lowering people’s wealth and minivans are normal goods, the demand for minivans would fall and the demand curve would shift to the left.

A leftward shift signifies a fall in demand while a rightward shift signals a rise in demand

Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls

Centore Inc. has provided the following data for the month of June. There were no beginning inventories; consequently, the direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead applied listed below are all for the current month. Work In Process Finished Goods Cost of Goods Sold Total Direct materials $ 650 $ 7,590 $ 24,860 $ 33,100 Direct labor 2,180 20,700 67,800 90,680 Manufacturing overhead applied 930 7,130 22,940 31,000 Total $ 3,760 $ 35,420 $ 115,600 $ 154,780 Manufacturing overhead for the month was underapplied by $3,000. The company allocates any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead among work in process, finished goods, and cost of goods sold at the end of the month on the basis of the overhead applied during the month in those accounts. The work in process inventory at the end of June after allocation of any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the month is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

$3,833

Explanation:

The computation of the work in process inventory after allocating the underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead for the month is shown below:

But before that we need to compute the amount i.e added which is given below

Amount added is

= Total work in process × manufacturing overhead underapplied ÷ total cost

= $3,760 × $3,000 ÷$154,780

= $72.88

Now the amount of work in process inventory at the end of June is

= $3,760 + $72.88

= $3,833

You have been given this probability distribution for the holding-period return for KMP stock: Stock of the Economy Probability HPR Boom 0.30 18 % Normal growth 0.50 12 % Recession 0.20 – 5 % What is the expected holding-period return for KMP stock?

Answers

Answer:  12.4%

Explanation:

The Expected return for a stock is the summation of all the returns given the probability of all market conditions.

Expected Return = ∑(Probability of return * return)

= (0.30 * 18%) + (0.50 * 12%) + (0.20 * 5%)

= 0.054 + 0.06 + 0.01

= 0.124

On November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 10% note payable, with a face value of $27,000. What is the maturity value of the note on March 1

Answers

Answer: $27,900

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that on November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 10% note payable, with a face value of $27,000.

The maturity value of the note on the note on March 1 will be the face value plus the interest. This will be:

= $27,000 + [($27,000 × 10%)/360 × 120]

= $27,000 + [($2700/360) × 120]

= $27,000 + ($7.5 × 120)

= $27,000 + $900

= $27,900

A stock has an expected return of 13 percent, the risk-free rate is 4.1 percent, and the market risk premium is 5.3 percent. What is the stock's beta?

Answers

Answer:

Stock Beta = 1.68

Explanation:

The expected return on stock can be estimate using te capital asset pricing model (CAPM).

The capital pricing model establishes the relationship between expected return from a stock and its systematic risk . The systematic risk is that which affects all players (businesses and firms) in the entire market, such risks are occasioned by changes in interest rate, exchange rate e.t.c

According to the model , the expected return is computed as follows

E(r) = Rf + β(Rm-Rf)

Rf- risk -free rate, Rm-Rf - market premium ,  β- beta

DATA:

E(r) = 13%, Rm-Rf = 5.3 , risk-free rate- 4.1%, β?

Applying this model, we have

13% = 4.1% + β× (5.3%)

0.13 = 0.041 + 0.053β

Collecting like terms

0.053β= 0.13 - 0.041

divide both sides by 0.053

β=  (0.13 - 0.041)/0.053

β = 1.679

Stock Beta = 1.68

Answers

Answer:

1. a. Average Tax rate =  130/2,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = (130 - 0)/ (2,000 - 0) = 6.5%

b. Average Tax rate =  650/10,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = [tex]\frac{650-130}{10,000-2,000}[/tex] = 6.5%

c.  Average Tax rate =  1,300/20,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = [tex]\frac{1,300-650}{20,000-10,000}[/tex] = 6.5%

d.  Average Tax rate =  6,500/100,000 = 6.5%

Marginal Tax Rate = [tex]\frac{6,500-1,300}{100,000-20,000}[/tex] = 6.5%

2. The tax rates shown in this table are: Proportional

Proportional Taxes take the same percentage of income across all income groups.

3. A. True

4. Sean and Bob would both vote yes as the Marginal Benefit of the project exceeds their marginal cost but project will not be funded in the end as the Total Marginal Cost exceeds Total Marginal benefit. Sean and Bob may want to pay but Yvette will not.

5. If this same project were taking place in the private sector, a firm would not fund the project.

6. In private markets, decisions to provide goods or services to the market are generally made if marginal benefits exceed marginal costs

Answer:

End inventory = $4,730

Cost of goods sold = $10,310

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided in the attached Microsoft word document before answering the question as follows:

a. Calculation of ending inventory

Number of units of Beginning inventory remaining unsold = 16 - 11 - 3 - 1 = 1 unit

Value of number of units Beginning inventory remaining unsold = 1 * $340 = $340

Number of units June 12 Purchase remaining unsold = 10 - 9 = 1 unit

Value of number of units June 12 Purchase remaining unsold = 1 * $330 = $330

Number of units of June 24 Purchase remaining unsold = 10 - 7 = 3 units

Value of number of June 24 Purchase remaining unsold = 3 * $320 = $960

Value of number of June 29 Purchase remaining unsold = 10 * $310 = $3,100

Therefore, End inventory is the addition of all the values of units remaining unsold as follows:

End inventory = $340 + $330 + $960 + $3,100 = $4,730

b. Calculation of cost of goods sold

June 7 cost of goods sold = 11 * $340 = $3,740

June 15 cost of goods sold = (3 * $340) + (9 * $330) = $3,990

June 27 cost of goods sold = (1 * $340) + (7 * $320) = $2,580

Cost of goods sold can therefore be calculated as follows:

Cost of goods sold = June 7 cost of goods sold + June 15 cost of goods sold + June 27 cost of goods sold = $3,740 + $3,990 + $2,580 = $10,310

Explanation:

The accounting equation indicates the balance that exists between the basic elements of accounting.  It states that Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity.  For every transaction, this equation holds true, because by the double entry system of bookkeeping, two or more accounts are always involved in every business transaction.

Exercise D Viking Corporation is operating at 80% of capacity, which means it produces 8,000 units. Variable cost is $100 per unit. Wholesaler Y offers to buy 2,000 additional units at $120 per unit. Wholesaler Z proposes to buy 1,500 additional units at $140 per unit. Which offer, if either, should Viking Corporation accept

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The variable cost is $100 per unit.

Wholesaler Y offers to buy 2,000 additional units at $120 per unit.

Wholesaler Z proposes to buy 1,500 additional units at $140 per unit.

We need to choose the best alternative, in this case, the one with the higher increase in income:

Effect on income= total contribution margin

Wholesaler Y:

Effect on income= 2,000*(120 - 100)= $40,000 increase

Wholesaler Z:

Effect on income= 1,500*(140 - 100)= $60,000 increase

The best option is to sell the units to Wholesaler Z. If Wholesaler Y accepts, you can still sell 500 more units.

A put option gives its owners the right, but not the obligation, to: buy a commodity at a specified price and future date, at which time physical delivery occurs. sell a commodity at a specified price and future date, but physical delivery does not occur. sell a specified number of shares at a certain price within a specified period of time. buy a specified number of shares at a certain price within a specified period of time.

Answers

Answer:

sell a specified number of shares at a certain price within a specified period of time.

Explanation:

A put option is a contract in which there is a right given to an owner but its not an obligation for selling a particular number of shares at a specific price within a time period set. Here specific price we called as predetermined price where the option put the buyer to sell at the strike price

Hence, the third option is correct

At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 24,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $36,000 Direct labor 8,640 Total $44,640 The standard materials price is $0.6 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $9 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: Actual direct materials $33,400 Actual direct labor 8,000 Total $41,400 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 21,600 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. Direct materials quantity variance $ -3,600 Unfavorable Direct labor time variance $ -864 Unfavorable Feedback

Answers

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance = $1,000

Direct labor time variance =  $224

Explanation:

Calculation of the direct materials quantity

Direct material quantity variance = Actual quantity at standard price - Standard Quantity at standard price

Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - (($36,000/24,000) * 21,600

Direct material quantity variance = $$33,400 - ($1.5 * $21,600)

Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - $32,400

Direct material quantity variance = $1,000

Calculation of direct labor time variances

Direct labor time variance = Actual labor time at standard cost - Standard labor time at standard cost

Direct labor time variance = $8,000- (($8,640/24,000) * $21,600

Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - (0.36) * $21,600

Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - $7,776

Direct labor time variance =  $224

Sketches Inc. purchased a machine on January 1, 2016. The cost of the machine was $29,000. Its estimated residual value was $9,000 at the end of an estimated 5-year life. The company expects to produce a total of 20,000 units. The company produced 1,100 units in 2016 and 1,550 units in 2017. Required: a. Calculate depreciation expense for 2016 and 2017 using the straight-line method.

Answers

Answer:

Annual depreciation= $4,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The cost of the machine was $29,000. Its estimated residual value was $9,000 at the end of estimated 5-year life.

To calculate the depreciation expense, we need to use the following formula:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (29,000 - 9,000)/5

Annual depreciation= $4,000
