Answer:
the opportunity cost of capital in this case is 8%
Explanation:
From the information given :
Elinor is asked to invest $5100 in a friend's business with the promise that the friend will repay $5610 in one year.
Eleanor finds her best alternative to this investment, with similar risk, is one that will pay her $5508 in one year.
U.S. securities of similar term offer a rate of return of 7%.
The opportunity cost of capital can be determined by using the expression:
[tex]A = P ( \dfrac{1+r}{100})^n[/tex]
where;
A = amount = $5508
P = Principal = $5100
r = opportunity cost of capital = ???
n = number of years = 1 year
[tex]5508= 5100 ( {1+ \dfrac{r}{100})^1[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{5508}{5100}= ( {1+ \dfrac{r}{100})^1[/tex]
[tex]1.08 = ( {1+ \dfrac{r}{100})[/tex]
[tex]1.08 = \dfrac{100 + r}{100}[/tex]
1.08 × 100 = 100 + r
108 = 100 + r
r = 108 - 100
r = 8%
Therefore; the opportunity cost of capital in this case is 8%
Some argue that the Federal Reserve lowering interest rates from mid-2000 to the end of 2002 greatly increased the money supply; however, opportunities to invest yielded paltry returns leading bankers to offer _____ in order to earn a higher return.
Answer: Subprime mortgage loans
Explanation: In other earn higher return, subprime mortgage loans provides bankers the opportunity to charge borrowers higher rates on loans offered. This is because subprime mortgage loans are usually offered to credit defaulters. That is, customers with low credit score due to inconsistencies in their credit repayment due to late payment and poor credit history. Due to poor credit score and low tendency to repay borrowed amount, hence posing a high risk of recouping their fund, such borrowers would find it difficult to qualify for conventional mortgage plans. Subprime mortgages offers a lifeline though but at higher rates.

Which statement most accurately describes a conflict of commitment? It involves a monetary gain by one party over another party. It occurs when outside activities interfere with one’s responsibilities to an employer. It occurs when an institution does not follow the financial rules from a funding source. It can only occur between an institution and an outside organization.
Answer:
It occurs when outside activities interfere with one's responsibilities to an employer
Explanation:
Conflict of commitment occurs when the commitment of an employer to a defined terms of employment is shared with other engagements, either personal or with other parties which could lead to a decline in efficiency due to loss of maximum concentration.
This may not necessarily involve monetary gain but has a whole lot of ways through which it can affect productivity as concentration is shared.
It is always good to define activities that constitute conflict of commitment right from the time of forming an employment contract so that an employee can be guided with it.

Using the assembly-line balancing procedure, which of the following is the required cycle time in minutes per unit if the daily production time is 480 minutes and the required daily output is 50 units?
a- 480
b- 0.104
c- Cannot be determined from the information above
d- 50
e- 9.6
Answer:
e - 9.6
Explanation:
Since the daily production time is 480 minutes, and the daily output is 50 units. The required cycle time in minutes per unit can be determined by;
[tex]\frac{minutes}{units}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{480}{50}[/tex]
= 9.6 min/unit
This implies that it takes 9.6 minutes to produce a unit daily. Then 480 minutes to produces 50 units daily.
Sales associate A and sales associate B work for the same firm. They agree to divide their region into an eastern half and a western half; sales associate A will handle listings in the east, and sales associate B will handle listings in the west. Which statement is TRUE
Answer: C) The agreement does not violate antitrust laws.
Explanation:
Anti-trust laws in the United States are laws enacted at both federal and state level with the aim of protecting consumers by ensuring fair competition amongst firms. As such, these laws target things such as monopolies, price fixing and market allocation.
The sales associates are currently engaging in market allocation. However, this does not violate anti-trust laws because they work for the same firm and will be offering the same services and prices to people in either area and it is still the same firm covering both areas.
g) Recovery schedule is a: i. A schedule prepared by the contractor to recover lost costs. ii. A schedule prepared by the owner and given to the contractor to make adjustments in the work plan. iii. A schedule prepared by the contractor after the project had fallen behind with adjustments that expedite the remainder of the project to ensure a timely finish. iv. None of the above.
Answer: iii. A schedule prepared by the contractor after the project had fallen behind with adjustments that expedite the remainder of the project to ensure a timely finish
Explanation:
The recovery schedule is a method of recovering time by the contractor. Just like the progress schedule, it should be noted that the recovery schedule is the responsibility of a contactor.
Therefore, it is a schedule prepared by the contractor after the project had fallen behind with adjustments that expedite the remainder of the project to ensure a timely finish.

Most home insurance policies cover jewelry for $1,000 and silverware for $2,500 unless items are covered with additional insurance. If $4,700 worth of jewelry and $6,000 worth of silverware were stolen from a family, what amount of the claim would not be covered by insurance?
Answer: $7200
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that most home insurance policies cover jewelry for $1,000 and silverware for $2,500 unless items are covered with additional insurance. If $4,700 worth of jewelry and $6,000 worth of silverware were stolen from a family.
The amount of claim that would not be covered by the insurance will be:
= ($4,700 - 1,000) + ($6,000 - 2,500)
= $3,700 + $3,500
= $7,200
ACold Inc. Is a frozen-food distributor with 10 warehouses across the country. Ivan Tory, one of the warehouse managers, wants to make sure that the inventory policies used by the warehouse are minimizing inventory while still maintaining quick delivery to ACold's customers. Because the warehouse carries hundreds of different products, Ivan decided to study one. He picked Caruso's Frozen Pizza (CFP). Demand for CFPs averages 400 per day with a standard deviation of 152. Because ACold orders at least one truck from its supplier each day, ACold can essentially order any quantity of CFP it wants each day. In fact, ACold's computer system is designed to implement an order-up-to policy for each product. Ivan notes that any order for CFPs arrives four days after the order.

Suppose it uses an order up to level of 2410. What is its expected on-hand inventory?
Answer:
The expected Inventory on -hand = 429.074
Explanation:
From the given information;
Mean i,e Demand for CFPs averages = 400 per day
standard deviation = 152
Lead TIme = 4 days
period length = ACold Inc. orders at least one truck from its supplier each day,
Let consider the fact that the order is up to level of S = 2410
Then, the expected demand for the lead time is;
[tex]\mu[/tex] = Demand × (Lead time + period length)
[tex]\mu[/tex] = 400 × ( 4 + 1)
[tex]\mu[/tex] = 400 × 5
[tex]\mu[/tex] = 2000
the standard deviation for the lead time as well is :
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation sd[tex]\sqrt{lead \ time \times period \ length }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = [tex]152 \sqrt{4+1}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = [tex]152 \sqrt{5}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = 339.88
The z - value for the test statistics can now be computed as:
[tex]z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]z = \dfrac{2410 - 2000}{339.88}[/tex]
[tex]z = \dfrac{410}{339.88}[/tex]
[tex]z = 1.2063[/tex]
z = 1.21
The order upto level = Inventory on -hand + Inventory order - Backorders
The order upto level - Inventory order + Backorders = Inventory on -hand
Inventory on -hand = The order upto level - Inventory order + Backorders
where ;
the backorders = [tex]\sigma L(z)[/tex] and [tex]L(z)[/tex] = standard loss
From the tables of distribution function and inventory function for standard normal distribution function
L(z) = 0.0561
the backorders can now be = 340 × 0.0561
the backorders can now be = 19.074
Recall that :
Inventory on -hand = The order upto level - Inventory order + Backorders
consider the fact that the order is up to level of S = 2410
∴ Inventory on -hand = 2410 - 2000 + 19.074
Inventory on -hand = 410 + 19.074
Inventory on -hand = 429.074
In the year 2000, the economy produces 50 loaves of bread that sell for $1 each. In the year 2001, the economy produces 100 loaves of bread that sell for $2 each. In the year 2002, the economy produces 200 loaves of bread that sell for $3 each. Calculate nominal GDP for each year.
Answer:
2000 - $502001 - $2002002 - $600Explanation:
Nominal GDP is the market value of final goods and services in an Economy in a period, typically a year. The final goods in this scenario are the loaves of bread.
2000 Economy
= 50 loaves * 1
= $50
2001 Economy
= 100 * 2
= $200
2002 Economy
= 200 * 3
= $600
The three people described in the following table are categorized as unemployed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Identify each person in the table as structurally, frictionally, or cyclically unemployed.
Unemployment Type
Structural
Frictional
Cyclical
Lucia just moved with her husband to Portland, Oregon. She's looking for a job as a paralegal.
Kenji recently lost his job as a waiter at a local restaurant. A recent increase in the minimum wage keeps local employers from adding more of the low-skill positions for which he qualifies, so he has been unable to find work. He continues to look for a job, but he's considering going back to school for vocational training.
Sharon is a real estate agent. House sales in her area have declined because the region has been going through a recession. She has no clients and is currently looking for a new full-time job.
The following table shows data on frictional, cyclical, structural, and total unemployment for an economy.
Unemployment Type Rate
(Percent)
Frictional 1.0
Cyclical 0.0
Structural 3.1
Total unemployment 4.1
This economy is not currently at full employment.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
Lucia just moved with her husband to Portland, Oregon. She's looking for a job as a paralegal. - Frictional
Frictional unemployment includes those people who are in between jobs, like Lucia. These are people who are recently unemployed and are expected to find employment soon, because their skills are wanted.
Kenji recently lost his job as a waiter at a local restaurant. A recent increase in the minimum wage keeps local employers from adding more of the low-skill positions for which he qualifies, so he has been unable to find work. He continues to look for a job, but he's considering going back to school for vocational training. - Structural
Kenji does not have enough skills, or is not productive enough, to be hired at any wage set above or equal to the minimum wage. Kenji will have to increase his skills in order to get hired, thus, he is in structural unemployment.
Sharon is a real estate agent. House sales in her area have declined because the region has been going through a recession. She has no clients and is currently looking for a new full-time job. - Cyclical
Cyclical unemployment corresponds to unemployment that is directly related to economic cycles, hence the name. When the economy is in a downturn, this type of unemployment rises, and when the economy is expanding, this type of unemployment falls.
Sharon is unemployed because the real estate market in her area is in recession.
This economy is not currently at full employment. b. False
Full employment occurs when the unemployment rate is at the natural rate, which is the sum of frictional and structural unemployment. This means that for an economy to at full employment, cyclical unemployment must be zero, as it is the case in this question.

Suppose you own 50,000 shares of common stock in a firm with 2.5 million total shares outstanding. The firm announces a plan to sell an additional 1 million shares through a rights offering. The market value of the stock is $ 35 before the rights offering and the new shares are being offered to existing shareholders at a $ 5 discount. a.If you exercise your preemptive rights, how many of the new shares can you purchase? b.What is the market value of the firm after the rights offering? c.What is your total investment in the firm after the rights offering? How is your investment split between original shares and new shares? d.If you decide not to exercise your preemptive rights rather sell your rights, what is your investment in the firm after the rights offering? How is this split between old shares and rights?
Answer:
20,000 ; $117.5 million; $2,350,000; $1678500; $1,078,500
Explanation:
Given the following :
Number of common stock shares owned = 50,000
outstanding shares = 2.5 million
Additional shares = 1 million
Market value of stock before rights offering = $35
Net stock price for existing shareholders ($5 discount) = $(35 - 5) = $30
A.) If you exercise your preemptive rights, how many of the new shares can you purchase?
Number of stocks / (outstanding shares ÷ additional shares)
[(50,000) ÷ (2.5 ÷1)] = 50,000/2.5 = 20,000
B.) b.What is the market value of the firm after the rights offering?
(Outstanding shares * market price) + ( additional shares * discount price)
(2.5million * $35) + (1 million * $30)
$87.5 + $30 = $117.5 million
C.) What is your total investment in the firm after the rights offering?
(stock shares held before offering * market price) + ( new shares that can be purchased * discount price)
(50,000 * $35) + (20,000 * $30)
1750000 + $600,000 = $2,350,000
D.)
Number of common stock shares *new market value after Issuance
New Market value after Issuance :
Market value of firm after offering / (outstanding + additional shares)
$117,500,000 / (2.5+1)million
$117,500,000 / 3,500,000
= $33.57
50,000 * $33.57 = $1678500
11)
Revenue from right sale :
Number of right shares * discount price
20,000 * $30 = $600,000
Value of proceed :
$1678500 - $600,000 = $1,078,500
Ben quit his job as an economics professor to become a golf professional. He gave up his $30,000 salary and invested his retirement fund of $50,000 (which was earning 10 percent interest) in this venture. After all expenses, his net winnings were $35,000. Ben's economic profits were
Answer:
Economic profit = $0
Explanation:
Economic profit = Revenue - Opportunity cost
Economic profit = $35,000 - (30,000 + (10% x 50,000))
Economic profit = $35,000 - $35,000
Economic profit = $0
Economic profit can be calculated by deducting the opportunity cost from the revenue earned. Here the economic profit is $0 as Ben lost his salary of $30,000 and the interest on retirement fund just for $35,000 revenue.
The economic profit is zero.
Important information:He gave up his $30,000 salary and invested his retirement fund of $50,000 (which was earning 10 percent interest) in this venture. After all expenses, his net winnings were $35,000.
Calculation of the economic profit:Economic profit = Revenue - Opportunity cost
Economic profit = $35,000 - (30,000 + (10% x 50,000))
Economic profit = $35,000 - $35,000
Economic profit = $0

If the price of biscuit per packet increased from N250 to N500 and the quantity bought per week decreased from 300 to 200 packets, determine the elasticity of demand for biscuit.
Answer:
The the elasticity of demand for biscuit is -0.33.
Explanation:
Elasticity demand is the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded for a commodity to a change in the price of that commodity.
The elasticity of demand for biscuit can be calculated using the following elasticity of demand formula:
Elasticity of demand = Percentage change in Qd / Percentage change in price .................. (1)
Where Qd denotes quantity demanded.
Percentage change in Qd = [(New Quantity - Old Quantity) / Old quantity] * 100 = [(200 - 300) / 300] * 100 = -33.33%
Percentage change in price = [(New price - Old price) / Old price] * 100 = [(N500 - N250) / N250] * 100 = 100%
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Elasticity of demand = -33.33% / 100% = - 0.33
Therefore, the the elasticity of demand for biscuit is -0.33.
Note that since -0.33 in absolute term |-0.33| is less than 1, the demand for biscuit is inelastic. That is, the change in the quantity demanded for biscuit responds less than the change in its price.

According to the dividend growth model, an increase in which of the following will increase the current value of a stock all other things equal? I. dividend amount II. discount rate III. dividend growth rate
Answer: (1.) Dividend amount (111.) Dividend growth rate
Explanation:
The divided growth model is defined by the relation:
Po = D1 / (r - g)
Where Po = current price of stock
r = discount rate and g = growth rate of the stock
D1 = Next year's Dividend
From the Gordon model; The price of stock is directly proportional to the Dividend amount, therefore, an increase in Dividend amount will result in current value of stock and vice versa.
Since the current value of stock increases as Dividend amount increases, therefore an increase in the growth rate of the Dividend will also favor increase in the current value of stock.
Based on the dividend growth model, when the following are increased, the value of the stock would increase:
I. dividend amount III. dividend growth rateThe dividend growth model is calculated as:
Value of stock = Dividend / ( Discount rate - Growth rate)
For the value of stock to be high, the numerator will have to increase or the denominator will have to decrease.
Increasing the dividend would increase the numerator and increasing the growth rate would decrease the denominator, both of which would increase stock value.
In conclusion, increasing dividend amount and growth rate will increase the value of stock.

A homeowner receives a tax bill that includes an amount for the library district, taxed at $1.00 per $1,000, and the fire protection district, taxed at $2.00 per $1,000. How much does the taxpayer have to pay for these two items if the property's taxable value is $470,000?
Answer:
$1,410
Explanation:
Given the following :
Library district tax:
$1.00 per $1000
Fire protection district tax:
$2.00 per $1000
TAXABLE value of property = $470,000
Library district tax on property :
($470,000 ÷ $1000) * $1.00
470 * $1.00 = $470
Fire protection district tax on property :
($470,000 ÷ $1000) * $2.00
$470 * $2.00 = $940
Toral tax value :
$940 + $470 = $1,410
Equilibrium price is $8 in a perfectly competitive market. For a perfectly competitive firm, MR = MC at 150 units of output. At 150 units, ATC is $11, and AVC is $10. The best policy for this firm is to __________ in the short run. Also, total fixed cost equals __________ and total variable cost equals __________ for this firm.
Answer:
Shut down
$1650
$1500
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
in the shut run, a perfect competition should shut down if average variable cost is greater than price. this is the case for this firm $10 is greater than $8.
total fixed cost = average fixed cost x quantity produced = $11 x 150 = $1650
Total variable cost = average variable cost x quantity produced = $10 x 150 = $1500

Organization structure is when a company's mode of operations and strategies are clearly defined and translated into various functions to be carried out by units in the organization and how those units work together to achieve common objectives, while organization design which is quite broader than organization structure tells us about a company's whole process, how teams are set up and led to achieve an organization goals.
Both structure and design are often used to give directions to an organization where the desired results are not met. As in the above scenario, both the structure and the design will now be restructured and redefined such that the new employees that will be recruited must meet the criteria as set out therein hence result in operational efficiency.
