Yekutia has the resources to manufacture 320 motorcycles or 570 lawn-mowers per year. The country of Bezanitia, has the capability of producing 230 motorcycles or 410 lawn-mowers per year. Which country has the largest opportunity cost to produce one more motorcycle and what is the opportunity cost to that country?
Answer:
Bezanitia,
1.782609
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone hen one alternative is chosen over another alternative.
By choosing to produce one more motorcycle, the countries would be giving up the opportunity to produce one more unit of lawn mowers
Yekutia's opportunity cost in the production of motor cycle = 570 / 320 = 1.781250
Bezanitia's opportunity cost in the production of motor cycle = 410 / 230 = 1.782609

Assume that you live in California and are on vacation, traveling by car from California to Texas. You are injured in a motel room when the bed on which you are sleeping collapses, causing you to fall to the floor. You suffer substantial back and leg injuries, requiring many medical treatments and causing you to miss work for 15 weeks. Your medical bills total $50,000 and your lost wages total $15,000. You intend to sue the owner of the Texas motel.
Required:
a. Can you bring your case in federal court? Why or why not?
b. Can you commence the case in California? What additional information might you need to answer this question?
c. At the end of the trial, the jury awards you $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages). After the trial, the attorney for the hotel approaches and offers to settle the case for $50,000. Should you consider accepting the settlement? Why or why not?
Answer:
a. No. A state court will do a better job in this case because it exercises unlimited jurisdiction. Moreover, you can only bring your case to a federal court if the amount of your claim is up to $75,000 or the issue is exclusive to the federal court. This is not the case here.
b. Yes and No. We need some additional information about the accident location to help answer this question definitively.
c. No. You should not consider accepting the offered settlement. The jury award is meant to pay for your medical bills and also to help you recover financially as though the accident did not happen in the first place. Accepting any lesser amount after the judgment is rendered is in bad taste. The other party should have negotiated to settle out of court before the final judgment was rendered. But it did not. So, go with the jury award.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Missed work for 15 weeks
Total medical bills incurred = $50,000
Total lost wages incurred = $15,000
Jury award = $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages)
Settlement offer = $50,000
Use two correctly labeled side-by-side graphs of the loanable funds market in the United States and China to show how a higher interest rate in the United States will lead to capital flows between the two countries. On your graphs, be sure to label the equilibrium interest rate in each country in the absence of international cap- ital flows, the international equilibrium interest rate, and the size of the capital inflows and outflows.
Answer:
Figure is given below.
Explanation:
The graph of United states and china is as follows :
Equilibrium is a condition in which market demand and supply or market forces are balanced, resulting in steady prices. Demand and supply balance each other out, resulting in a condition of equilibrium.
The international interest rate of equilibrium is set at 4%. The chart also shows capital inflows and outflows, as well as the United States and China's off-balance interest rates.

You have graduated from college but unfortunately have $39,000 in outstanding loans. The loans require payments of $3,435 per year, which covers interest and principal repayment (that is, the loan has the same basic features as a mortgage). If the interest rate is 4 percent, how long will it take you to repay the debt
Answer:
15.44 years
Explanation:
Using both excel rate function and financial calculator, the time taken to repay the debt can be computed thus:
Excel rate function:
=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)
rate= interest rate=4%
pmt=yearly payment=c
pv=loan oustanding=-39000
fv=the balance after all payments should be zero=0
=nper(4%,3435,-39000,0)= 15.44 years
Financial calculate
PMT= 3435
RATE=4
PV=-39000
FV=0
CPT N=15.44 years
This means a payment of $3,435 per year for 15 years and $ 1,511.40 ($3,435*0.44) in the sixteenth year

Assume GE has a 35% income tax rate. As of the 2016 year-end, how much has GE saved in taxes by choosing LIFO over FIFO method for costing inventory
Answer:
$ 244 million
Explanation:
Calculation for how much has GE saved in taxes by choosing LIFO over FIFO method for costing inventory
Tax rate Amount (In millions)
LIFO $ 10,315.00 35% =$ 3,610.25
FIFO $ 11,012.00 35% =$ 3,854.20
Savings in taxes $ (697.00) $ (243.95)
Hence,
Savings in taxes=$ 3,610.25 million-$ 3,854.20 million
Savings in taxes=($243.95 million)
Savings in taxes=($ 244 million) Approximately
Therefore the amount that GE saved in taxes by choosing LIFO over FIFO method for costing inventory will be $ 244 million

Webber Technologies is an emerging manufacturer of 3.5 inch diagonal touch screens for mobile communication devices/media players. 2011 industry sales were reported at 17.50 million units. This number represents an 17.7 % increase over 2010 industry sales. Webber Technologies had a 2010 market share of 5.9 %, compared with a 2011 market share of 4.2%. What was the change in unit sales for Webber Technologies, from 2010 to 2011, attributable to the change in industry sales
Answer:
Industry Sales (2011) = 17,500,000
Industry Sales (2010) = Sales of 2011/1+growth = 17,500,000/1+17.7% = 17,500,000/1.177 = $14868309.26083263 = $14,868,309.26
Company Sales (2011) = 17,500,000 * 4.2% = $735,000
Company Sales (2010) = 14,868,309.26 * 5.9% = $877,230.25
Change in units = Company sales in 2011 - Company Sales in 2010 = $735,000 - $877,230.25 = $142,230.25
Change due to change in Industry growth = Company Sales in 2010 * 17.7% = $877,230.25 * 17.7% = 155,269.75
So, there is net increase of 155,269.75 units of sales due to industry growth.

During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000. As of year end, Beta had resold only 60 percent of these intra-entity purchases. Alpha sells inventory to Beta at the same markup it uses for all of its customers. What is the total for consolidated cost of goods sold
Answer:
a. $173,000
Explanation:
Missing word "Alpha Company owns 80 percent of the voting stock of Beta Company. Alpha and Beta reported the following account information from their year-end separate financial records: Alpha Beta Inventory $95,000 $88,000 Sales Revenue 800,000 300,000 Cost of Goods Sold 600,000 180,000 During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000."
Percentage of profits Alpha charge to other customers = ($800,000 - $600,000) / $800,000 = 25% of sales
Stock held at year end by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $100,000 * 40% =$40,000
Profit involved in stock held by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $40,000 * 25% = $10,000
So, Value of stock of Beta = $88,000 - $10,000 = $78,000
Hence, Total for consolidated inventory = $95,000 + $78,000 = $173,000
Beta Alpha Psi, the accounting honorary fraternity, held a homecoming party. The fraternity expected attendance of 80 persons and prepared the following budget: Room rental .. $ 170 Food ....... 660 Entertainment .. 570 Decorations ... 210 Total ...... $1,610 After Beta Alpha Psi paid all the bills for the party, the total cost came to $1,885 or $275 over budget. Details are $170 for room rental; $875 for food; $570 for entertainment; and $270 for decorations. Ninety-six persons attended the party. 1. Prepare a performance report for the party that shows how actual costs differed from the budget. That is, include in your report the budgeted amounts, actual amounts, and variances. 2. Suppose the fraternity uses a management-by-exception rule. Which costs deserve further examination
Answer:
Beta Alpha Psi
1. Performance Report for the party:
Budget Actual Variance
Expected attendance (persons) 80 96 16
Room rental .. $ 170 $170 $0
Food ....... 660 875 $215 U
Entertainment .. 570 570 $0
Decorations ... 210 270 $60 U
Total ...... $1,610 $1,885 $275 U
2. The costs that deserve further examination are Food and Decorations. The party overspent on these items.
Explanation:
Since 96 persons attended the party, the food cost should have been = $792 ($660/80 * 96), which is the flexible budget cost. The cost of decorations should have remained $210 unless there were improper estimates of the items required for the decorations and the size of the party venue.

The statement "The courts ruled that the pay disparity between the sexes at Jaxon Corp. was illegal and ordered the company to remedy it. Jaxon Corp. cannot lower the wages of the higher-paid group in order to comply with the law" is true.
What is disparity?The disparity can be defined as a lack of equality or likeness, particularly in an unfair way: the widening discrepancy between the affluent and poor.
Inequalities in other parts of society, such as the legal system, education, academe, commercial institutions, and politics, are referred to as social disparities. Most of the time, the social discrepancies listed above are the result of other disparities, such as economic disparity, gender disparity, or racial disparity.
The courts determined that Jaxon Corp.'s wage inequality between the sexes was unconstitutional and ordered the corporation to correct it. To comply with the legislation, Jaxon Corp. cannot reduce the compensation of the higher-paid group. Therefore, the above statement is true.
