Answer:
Break-even point (dollars)= $15,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The selling price is $10 each and the variable costs are $8.
Fixed costs are $3,000.
To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 3,000 / [(10 - 8)/10]
Break-even point (dollars)= $15,000

Answer:
C. $69,000
Explanation:
Computation of the cash paid for dividends during Year 2
First step is to calculate the difference in Retained earnings for Year 2 and Year 1
Retained earnings =$688,000-$582,000
Difference in retained earnings =$106,000
Second step is to calculate for the cash paid for dividends during Year 2
Using this formula
Cash paid dividend = Year 2 Net income- Retained earnings difference
Let plug in the formula
Cash paid dividend=$175,000-$106,000
Cash paid dividend =$69,000
Therefore the cash paid for dividends during Year 2 will be $69,000
When the price of erasers increases from $1.50 to $2.50, the quantity demanded of pencils is unchanged. The cross-price elasticity of demand between erasers and pencils is
Answer:
The cross elasticity of demand is zero
Explanation:
Cross elasticity of demand measures the percentage change in the quantity demand of a product occasioned by a change in the price of another but related commodity.
If the the commodities are complements, the cross of elasticity of demand between them would be negative. his implies an increase(decrease) in the price of one would lead to a decrease(increase) in the demand of the other.
If the the commodities are substitutes, the cross elasticity of demand between them would be positive. This implies an increase(decrease) in the price of one would lead to a increase (decrease) in the quantity demand of the other.
Where the cross elasticity of demand is zero, this implies that the goods are not in any way related. This implies that a change in the price of one would produce no change in the quantity demand of the other.

Cost reduction is still the number one priority for many supply chain executives, according to the MHI and Deloitte survey. Select one: True False
Answer:
MHI and Deloitte Survey
Cost Reduction #1 Priority
True
Explanation:
For supply chain companies to achieve their profit targets, they need to curtail costs. Consumers are not ready to absorb much costs as they are presented with low-priced alternatives. The competition for customers among supply chain organizations is very high. Everyone competes for the dollar the consumer is willing to spend on goods. With property and advertising costs skyrocketing, careful management of the cost structure is required.
Inflation is a general rise in the level of prices experienced by people in a nation.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Inflation is an economic term that can be defined as the increase in the prices of a product on the market in a given period.
It can occur due to several factors, when there is an imbalance between supply and demand, then it is correct to say that when the demand for a product is greater than the supply, there will be an increase in prices and, consequently, inflation.
It can also occur when there are situations of monopoly, which is the pricing of a product controlled by a company.
Another factor that causes inflation is the increase in a company's production costs, which can be caused by factors such as scarcity, or economic crisis.
Uncontrolled inflation has a negative impact on the consumer's life, which starts to lose its purchasing capacity and has its quality of life reduced.
Suppose Acap Corporation will pay a dividend of $2.88 per share at the end of this year and $3.01 per share next year. You expect Acap's stock price to be $53.87 in two years. Assume that Acap's equity cost of capital is 10.3%. a. What price would you be willing to pay for a share of Acap stock today, if you planned to hold the stock for two years? b. Suppose instead you plan to hold the stock for one year. For what price would you expect to be able to sell a share of Acap stock in one year? c. Given your answer in (b), what price would you be willing to pay for a share of Acap stock today if you planned to hold the stock for one year? How does this compare to your answer in (a)?
Answer:
A.P(0)=$48.89
B.P(1)=$51.56
C.P(0)=$49.35
Explanation:
A. Calculation for what price would you be willing to pay for a share of Acap stock today if you planned to hold the stock for two year
Using this formula
P(0)=Dividend per share/Percentage of Equity cost of capital +(Dividend next year+Stock price)/Percentage of Equity cost of capital
Let plug in the formula
P(0) = 2.88/ 1.103 + (3.01+ 53.87) / 1.103^2=
P(0)=2.611+56.88/1.216609
P(0)=59.491/1.216609
P(0)=$48.89
b. Calculation for what price would you expect to be able to sell a share of Acap stock in one year
Using this formula
P(1)=(Dividend next year + Stock price)/Percentage of Equity cost of capital
Let plug in the formula
P(1) = (3.01 + 53.87) / 1.103 = $50.00
P(1)=56.88/1.103
P(1)=$51.56
c.Calculation for what price would you be willing to pay for a share of Acap stock today if you planned to hold the stock for one year
Using this formula
P(0)=(Dividend per share + P(1)/Percentage of Equity cost of capital
Let plug in the formula
P(0) = (2.88 + 51.56) / 1.103
P(0)=54.44/1.103
P(0)=$49.35
Therefore compare to the answer in (a)
if you planned to hold the stock for two year you will have $48.89 and if you planned to hold the stock for one year you will have $49.35.

Suppose that a perfectly competitive firm faces a market price of $7 per unit, and at this price the upward-sloping portion of the firm's marginal cost curve crosses its marginal revenue curve at an output level of 1 comma 400 units. If the firm produces 1 comma 400 units, its average variable costs equal $6.50 per unit, and its average fixed costs equal $0.80 per unit.
Required:
a. What is the firm's maximizing (or loss-minimizing output level?
b. What is the amount of it's economic profits (or losses) at this output level?
Answer:
1. This firm have the profit maximizing output level of 1400 units because a firm in any industry will maximize profit where MR=MC. Here MR is equal to MC at the output level of 1400. So profit maximizing level of output is 1400 units.
2. Economic profit = Total revenue - total cost.
Where, Total revenue = Quantity * price
= 1400 * 7
= $9,800
Total variable cost = AVC * quantity
= 6.50 *1400
= $9,100
Total fixed cost = AFC * quantity
= 0.80 * 1400
= $1,120
Economic profit = Total revenue - Total variable cost - Total fixed cost
Economic profit = $9,800 - $9,100 - $1,120
Economic profit = -$420
. The firm is having economic loss equal to 420.
Conclusion: This firm is facing economic loss in its output.

The structural unemployment rate is 1.7 percent, the frictional unemployment rate is 2.6 percent, and the economy's current unemployment rate is 3.9 percent. The economy is in:_______.
a. long-run equilibrium.
b. a recessionary gap producing more than Natural Real GDP.
c. a recessionary gap producing less than Natural Real GDP.
d. an inflationary gap producing Natural Real GDP.
e. an inflationary gap producing more than Natural Real GDP.
Answer:
a. long-run equilibrium.
Explanation:
In the circumstances that the structural unemployment rate is 1.7 percent, the frictional unemployment rate is 2.6 percent, and the economy's current unemployment rate is 3.9 percent. Then we can say that the economy is in a long-run equilibrium.
Structural unemployment can be defined as an involuntary unemployment that arises as a result of the incompatibility between a worker's skills set and requisite skills an employer seeks from the workers or due to technological changes.
Frictional unemployment is a form of unemployment which is voluntary because employees which to change jobs or move to another better job.
Hence, the economy is in a long-run equilibrium because the rate of unemployment has become constant, thus, prices and wages will be adjusted in order to reach wages equilibrium level.
If you put up $39,000 today in exchange for a 6.5 percent, 16-year annuity, what will the annual cash flow be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
$3,992.73
Explanation:
For computing the annual cash flow we need to apply the PMT formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below:
Given that,
Present value = $39,000
Future value or Face value = $0
RATE = 6.5%
NPER = 16 years
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the annual cash flow is $3,992.73
During 2018, Skechers USA had Sales of $1,846.4, Gross profit of $818.8 million and Selling, General and Administration expenses of $730.7 million. What was Skechers' Cost of sales for 2018
Answer:
The answer is $1,027.6 million
Explanation:
Gross profit = Sales - Cost of Sales(cost of goods sold)
Gross profit = $818.8 million
Sales of $1,846.4 million.
To find Cost of Sales, we rearrange the formula to now be:
Sales - Gross profit
$1,846.4 million - $818.8 million
=$1,027.6 million
Therefore, Skechers' Cost of sales for 2018 is $1,027.6 million
Howard Services, Inc., has $ 8 comma 600 cash on hand on January 1. The company requires a minimum cash balance of $ 7 comma 600. January cash collections are $ 548 comma 570. Total cash payments for January are $ 567 comma 610. Prepare a cash budget for January. How much cash, if any, will Howard need to borrow by the end of January?
Answer:
The amount of cash to be borrowed = $18,040
Explanation:
The cash budget shows the expected cash payments and expected cash receipts and cash balance at the end of a particular period.
Note that in the cash budget only items of the cash are considered, therefore items like depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and apportionment of fixed costs are not included because they are not cash based.
The balance at the end = opening cash balance + cash receipts -cash payment
Applying this to Howard Services, Inc.
The amount of cash to be borrowed = Minimum cash balance required - Net cash balance
DATA
Opening cash balance - 8600
Cash receipts- 548,570
Cash payment - 567,610
Net cash balance = 8600 + 548,570 - 567,610 = (10,440)
The amount of cash to be borrowed = 7,600 - (10,440)
=7,600+10,440=18040
The amount of cash to be borrowed = $18,040
Note a negative amount of 10,400 would mean that that would be first borrowed to balance the deficit, and to take the balance to the minimum required cash balance, an addition 7,600 would need to be borrowed.

Bermuda Triangle Corporation (BTC) currently has 390,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell for $102 per share. Assume no market imperfections or tax effects exist. Determine the share price and new number of shares outstanding if: (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your price per share answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16, and shares outstanding answers to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.) a. BTC has a five-for-three stock split. b. BTC has a 10 percent stock dividend. c. BTC has a 37.0 percent stock dividend. d. BTC has a four-for-seven reverse stock split.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of each points is shown below:-
a. BTC has a five-for-three stock split is
New price = Old price × Split ratio
= 102 × 3 ÷ 5
= 61.2
New shares outstanding = old shares outstanding ÷ Split ratio
= 390,000 × 5 ÷ 3
= 650,000
b. BTC has a 10 percent stock dividend is
New price = Old price ÷ (1 + Stock dividend)
= 102 ÷ (1 + 0.1)
= 92.73
New shares outstanding = Old shares outstanding × (1 + Stock dividend)
= 390,000 × (1 + 0.1)
= 429,000
c. BTC has a 37.0 percent stock dividend is
New price = Old price ÷ (1 + Stock dividend)
= 102 ÷ (1 + 0.37)
= 74.45
New shares outstanding = Old shares outstanding × (1 + Stock dividend)
= 390,000 × (1 + 0.37)
= 534,300
d. BTC has a four-for-seven reverse stock split is
New price = Old price × Split ratio
= 102 × (7 ÷ 4)
= 178.5
New shares outstanding = Old shares outstanding ÷ Split ratio
= 390,000 × (4 ÷ 7)
= 222,857.14
When a company constructs a building, the cost of the building includes materials and labor but not design fees, building permits, or insurance during construction.
a. True
b. False

Answer:
Total inventory in consolidated balance = $60,000
Explanation:
In the consolidated balance sheet, we record the sum of both parent and subsidiary assets. Here pumpkin and spice both have an inventory of $30,000.
Total inventory in consolidated balance = Pimpkin's Inventory + fair value of Spice's inventory
Total inventory in consolidated balance = $30,000 + $30,000
Total inventory in consolidated balance = $60,000

Beta is a measure of systematic risk. Systematic risk is further divided into business and financial.
Business risk and financial risk. Business risk is that associated with the nature of the business operations that causes variability in the operating income of the business.
This is measured by the unlevered beta where the company has no debt finance.
Financial risk, on the other hand, is associated with use of debt finance . A company that uses a form of debt would face such risk . The systematic risk of such business would be measured using the levered beta.
The formula below shows the relationship:
βa = βe × Ve/ (Ve + Vd(1-T) )
βa -Unlevered beta
βe - Levered beta
Ve- Equity weight
Vd- Debt weight
T- Tax rate
DATA
βe- 0.9
βa- ?
Ve- 1
Vd- 1
T- 0.3
βa = 0.9 × 1/(1 + 1×(1-0.3)=0.529
βa - 0.53
Unlevered beta = 0.53
The Mahoney Company failed to accrue Rent Revenue on 12/31/23. The error was discovered on 2/1/24, before any cash was collected and after the 2023 books were closed. On 2/1/24, Mahoney would record:
Answer:
Mahoney would record record on the 2023 books A debit to rent receivables
Explanation:
As error of failure to accrue rent revenue on 12/31/2023 was discovered before closing of books, therefore on 02/01/2024 Mahoney would record on the 2023 books "A debit to rent receivables"
Flapjack Corporation had 7,600 actual direct labor hours at an actual rate of $12.41 per hour. Original production had been budgeted for 1,100 units, but only 950 units were actually produced. Labor standards were 7.0 hours per completed unit at a standard rate of $13.00 per hour. The direct labor time variance is
Answer:
-$12,350 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of direct labor variance is shown below:
Labor time variance = (Standard hours - Actual hours) × standard rate
= (950 × 7.0 - 7,600) × $13
= (6,650 - 7,600) × $13
= -950 × $13
= -$12,350 Unfavorable
Therefore for computing the direct labor variance we simply applied the above formula by considering the given information
Preston Inc.'s stock has a 25% chance of producing a 30% return, a 50% chance of producing a 12% return, and a 25% chance of producing a -18% return. What is the firm's expected rate of return
Answer:
Expected return = 9%
Explanation:
A portfolio is a collection of assets/ investment. The expected return on the stock would be the weighted average of all the return of the possible return weighted according to their probability.
Expected return on portfolio:
E(R) =( Wa*Ra) + (Wb*Rb) + (Wc*Rc)
R- possible return,W- probability
E(R) = (30%× 0.25) + (12%× 0.5) + (-18%× 0.25) = 9 %
Expected return = 9%
Note that the negative sign in the last possible return implies a loss.
In the context of a firm's statement of cash flows, ________ include the purchase, sale, or investment in fixed assets, such as real estate, equipment, and buildings.
Answer: investing activities
Explanation:
Investing activities is one of the categories of the net cash activities that is shown on a cash flow statement. It should be noted that investing activities is the buying and selling of long-term assets and every other business investments.
Investing activities include the purchase, sale, or investment in fixed assets, such as real estate, equipment, and buildings.
For each price in the following table, calculate the firm's optimal quantity of units to produce, and determine the profit or loss if it produces at that quantity, using the data from the previous graph to identify its total variable cost. Assume that if the firm is indifferent between producing and shutting down, it will produce.
Price Quantity Total Revenue Fixed Cost Variable Cost Profit
(Dollars per polo) (Polos) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars) (Dollars)
25.00 520,000
40.00 520,000
65.00 520,000
If the firm shuts down, it must incur its fixed costs (FC) in the short run. In this case, the firm's fixed cost is $520,000 per day. In other words, if it shuts down, the firm would suffer losses of $520,000 per day until its fixed costs end (such as the expiration of a building lease).
This firm's __________ that is, the price below which it is optimal for the firm to shut down is:________
Answer:
This firm's Shut down price, That is, the price below which it is optimal for the firm to shut down is $40.
Explanation:
Shut down point is the point at which a firm or business is not able to gain any profit or benefit from the operations. Firm try to stay in the market until they reach the shut down point in business. It is a point where a business revenue just covers the variable expenses.
