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.

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.
8. Agreement and disagreement among economists Suppose that Tim, an economist from a business school in Georgia, and Alyssa, an economist from a university in Massachusetts, are arguing over government bailouts. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate: Alyssa: Thanks to recent financial crises, the concept of bailouts is a hot topic for debate among everyone these days. Tim: Indeed, it's gotten crazy! A government bailout of severely distressed financial firms is unnecessary because free markets will properly price assets. Alyssa: I don't know about that. Without a bailout of severely distressed financial firms, the economy will experience a deep recession. The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to .
Answer:
The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to .
differences between perceptions versus reality.
Explanation:
A bailout occurs when the government provides capital resources to a distressed business or failing company, which it considers to be too big to fail. The purpose is to prevent the consequences of the downfall of such an entity, which may include bankruptcy, default on its financial obligations, economic impact on the wider society. Most bailouts are made for the benefit of the society rather than the business entity. The mindset from which two economists can perceive the reality of bailouts will always differ.
Margot starts a new business and contributes $20,000 in cash; she also borrows $25,000 from her local bank. She utilizes the cash to purchase supplies for $5,000 and a computer system for $10,000. After these transactions, the total claims to the company's total resources are:
Answer:
$45,000
Explanation:
Given the above information, total resources is computed as;
Total resources = Cash + Purchase supplies + Equipment computer system
But
Cash = $20,000 + $25,000 - $5,000 - $10,000 = $30,000
Total resources = $30,000 + $5,000 + $10,000 = $45,000

The residents of cities A, B, C, D and E consume wi-fi routers, with consumption in each city is 150 routers (see the map below). The firm that produces routers must decide how to set-up production. It could set up five factories, dispersed across each city, with each factory producing 150 routers and supplying to its own local city market. In this case, the firm incurs no cost for shipping output. Alternatively, the firm could locate its factory at centrally located city C, and supply routers to the entire region. The single factory in city C must then produce 750 routers, 600 of which are shipped to the cities A, B, D and E for a shipping cost of $6 per router.
A E
C
B D
(a) Suppose the average cost of producing a router is AC (Q) = 1500/Q, where Q is the number of routers produced in a factory. Calculate AC with Q = 150 and Q = 750, respectively. Note and explain how this production process exhibit economies of scale.
(b) Based on the AC function from part (a), find the optimal arrangement of production for the firm (one central factory or five dispersed factories). The optimal arrangement minimizes total cost for the firm, where total cost is the sum of production cost and shipping cost. Clearly write down all your calculations.
(c) Now suppose the average cost of producing a router is AC = 14000/(Q+1250). Now, repeat the calculation of AC with Q = 150 and Q = 750.
(d) Based on the AC function from part (c), now repeat your calculations to find the cost-minimizing arrangement of production in the case. (e) Explain intuitively the difference is results between responses to part (b) and (d).
(f) Suppose now production costs are those given in part (a) but let shipping cost per router be given by t (in the preceding discussion, we had t = 6, now we assume we don’t know the cost of shipping). What value of t would make the two arrangements for production (centralized versus separate factories) equivalent in terms of cost? i.e. what value of t would make the firm indifferent between a centralized versus a dispersed set-up?
Answer:
a. The production process shows that the more the quantity produced, the less the average cost of production. It proves that there are advantages arising from economies of scale.
AC with Q = 150 = $10 ($1,500/150) and
AC with Q = 750 = $2 ($1,500/750)
b. The optimal arrangement is (centralized production) to produce the 750 routers at city C and ship to the 4 other cities.
c. AC with Q = 150 = $10 (14000/(150+1250) and
AC with Q = 750 = $7 (14000/(750+1250)
d. The cost-minimizing arrangement of production in this case is decentralized production.
e. The average cost of producing 150 units at the various cities has remained unchanged while the average cost of producing the 750 units at city C has increased from $2 to $7.
f. Suppose now production costs are those given in part (a) but let shipping cost per router be given by t (in the preceding discussion, we had t = 6, now we assume we don’t know the cost of shipping).
The value of t that would make the two arrangements for production (centralized versus separate factories) equivalent in terms of cost is:
t = $10 per router
Therefore, centralized production cost will be equal to $7,500 ($1,500 + ($10 * 600), and decentralized production cost will remain at $7,500 (750 * $10).
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cities with consumers of wi-fi routers = A, B, C, D and E
Demand for routers by each city = 150
Total number of routers required = 750 (150 * 5)
b) Suppose the average cost of producing a router is AC (Q) = 1500/Q, where Q is the number of routers produced in a factory:
Therefore AC with Q = 150 = $10 ($1,500/150) and
AC with Q = 750 = $2 ($1,500/750)
Cost of Production of routers in city C:
cost of producing 750 routers at $2 per router = $1,500
Shipping cost of 600 routers to 4 cities at $6 per router = $3,600
Total cost of producing at city C = $5,100 ($1,500 + $3,600)
Total cost of producing 750 routers at 5 cities = $7,500 ($1,500/150 * 750)
c) Suppose the average cost of producing a router is AC = 14000/(Q+1250):
Therefore, AC with Q = 150 = $10 (14000/(150+1250) and
AC with Q = 750 = $7 (14000/(750+1250)
Cost of Production of routers in city C:
cost of producing 750 routers at $7 per router = $5,250
Shipping cost of 600 routers to 4 cities at $6 per router = $3,600
Total cost of producing at city C = $8,850 ($5,250 + $3,600)
Total cost of producing 750 routers at 5 cities = $7,500 ($1,500/150 * 750)
d) $7,500 = $1,500 + tQ
where Q = 600 (150 * 4)
Therefore, $7,500 - $1,500 = t600
simplifying
t600 = $6,000
t = $6,000/600 = $10
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:

What are the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter B apply.) A. Productivity is increased by specialization. B. Each good has only one price. C. There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners. D. There is a lack of standardization. E. There is difficulty in accumulating wealth. OF. Transactions costs are almost always high.
Answer:
C)There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.
D)There is a lack of standardization.
E)There is difficulty in accumulating wealth.
Explanation:
barter in a trade can be regarded as a system of exchange that involves exchange of goods and services for another without using money as a medium of exchange. Barter is been considered as 'inefficient' as a result of the needs for 'double coincidence of wants'. For instance in a situation whereby someone is buying particular amount of another's goods, but the payment he/she has is for just one indivisible unit of another good, and the worth is higher than what he/she want to obtain, in this case there won't be barter transaction.
It should be noted that the costs and sources of inefficiency in a barter are;
✓There is increased time and effort spent looking for trading partners.
✓There is a lack of standardization.
✓There is difficulty in accumulating
A firm produces truffles by using labor and capital. The price of labor is $10 per unit, and the price of capital is $20 per unit. At current output level, the marginal product of labor is 40 truffles and the marginal product of capital is 60 truffles. To reduce the total cost of producing the current quantity of truffles, how should the firm change its spending on labor and capital
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
With the information given in the question, the firm should change its spending on labor and capital by increasing its labor and at thesame time, also reducing capital.
This is because since the marginal product of labor is 40 truffles and the price of labor is $10 per unit, it means that 4 truffles/dollar is being spent on labor, while for capital, 3 truffles/dollar is being spent.

The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to:_____
The incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to $10.65.
Here, the fixed cost would not be relevant for the computation.
Incremental manufacturing cost when production level changed is
= Direct material cost per unit + Direct labor cost per unit + Variable manufacturing overhead per unit
= $6.25 + $3.20 + $1.20
= $10.65
In conclusion, the incremental manufacturing cost that the company will incur if it increases production from 5,500 to 5,501 units is closest to $10.65.

Uncle Fred recently died and left $280,000 to his 45-year-old favorite niece. She immediately spent $80,000 on a town home but decided to invest the balance for her retirement at age 65. What rate of return must she earn on her investment over the next 20 years to permit her to withdraw $75,000 at the end of each year through age 80 if her funds earn 10 percent annually during retirement
Answer:
6.06%
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of return is shown below:
Given that
NPER = 20 years
PV = ($280,000 - $80,000) = $200,000
PMT = $0
FV = $75,000 × PVIFA factor at 10% for 21 years
= $75,000 × 8.6487
= $648,652.50
The following formula should be applied
= RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)
The present value comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the rate of return is 6.06%
The following units of an inventory item were available for sale during the year. Use this information to answer the following questions.
Beginning inventory 10 units at $55
First purchase 25 units at $60
Second purchase 30 units at $65
Third purchase 15 units at $70
The firm uses the periodic inventory system. During the year, 60 units of the item were sold.
The value of ending inventory using FIFO is:________
a. $1,350
b. $1,150
c. $1,375
d. $1,250
Answer:
The value of ending inventory using FIFO is $1,375
Explanation:
Under FIFO the items of inventory purchases earlier will be sold first and the items purchased later will be sold at last.
First, we need to calculate the total available inventory units
Numbers of units available to sale = Beginning Inventory + First purchase + Second purchase + Third purchase = 10 units + 25 units + 30 units + 15 units = 80 units
Now 60 units out of 80 are sold the remaining 20 units ( 80 units - 60 units ) will be in the ending inventory.
As per FIFO 20 units will be values as per the last 20 units purchases which will be as follow
Ending Invetory = ( 15 units x $70 ) + ( (20-15) units x $65 ) = $1,375

1. Friedman distinguishes between the two concepts that (a) businesses really do act in ways to maximize profit and (b) businesses have a moral responsibility (or, as he puts it, a social responsibility) to act to maximize profit. How does he defend the latter position? (See both the Friedman and Sandbu readings)
Explanation:
Friedman defends the position that companies have a social responsibility to act to maximize profit, in the sense that, the primary function of companies is to generate profit. The author goes against the growing opinions in society that companies must have social responsibility, that is, they need to create a positive and sensitive corporate image to please political and society interests and counter or even soften the words and actions its central purpose, which is profit generation. For him, social responsibility cannot be politicized in order to be an obligation of companies, as it limits freedom and interests arising from the business.

Mortensen Industries, which uses a process-costing system, adds material at the beginning of production and incurs conversion cost evenly throughout manufacturing. The following selected information was taken from the company's accounting records: Total equivalent units of materials: 8,000 Total equivalent units of conversion: 7,240 Units started and completed during the period: 6,100 On the basis of this information, the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:
Answer:
60%
Explanation:
Calculation for what the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:
First step is to calculate the Total materials
Total equivalent units of materials + Units started and completed during the period = Total materials or 6,100 + x = 8,000; x = 1,900 (8,100-6,100)
Second step is to calculate Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory
Using this formula
Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory= Equivalent units of conversion –
Units started and completed during the period
Let plug in the formula
Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory= 7,240 – 6,100
Partial units with conversion costs in ending inventory = 1,140 units
Now let calculate the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion
Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion= 1,140 ÷1,900
Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion=0.6*100
Ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion= 60%
Therefore the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is:60%
Joshua loans his son, Seth, $100,000 interest free for five years. Seth uses the money for a down payment on his home. Assume that the applicable federal interest rate is 4 percent. What are the tax consequences of this loan to Joshua and to Seth? How would your answer change if Seth uses the money to invest in corporate bonds paying 8 percent annual interest? [LO
Answer:
What are the tax consequences of this loan to Joshua and to Seth?
The IRS requires that any loans must charge a minimum interest rate, and in this case, since Joshua is not charging any interest to his son, the IRS will consider the minimum interest rate as a gift and will tax it that way. Since Joshua can make gifts for $15,000 per year, if the threshold is already passed, the IRS will consider $100,000 x 4% = $4,000 as taxable gifts.
How would your answer change if Seth uses the money to invest in corporate bonds paying 8 percent annual interest?
The answer shouldn't change since Joshua is the one that can be taxed here. Seth cannot deduct any interest expense or gift tax expense either.

On January 1, year 8, Derek Co.’s defined benefit pension plan had plan assets with a fair value of $750,000, and a projected benefit obligation of $875,000. In addition: Actual and expected return on plan assets – 7% Interest cost – 9% Service costs - $24,000 Unamortized prior service cost - $120,000 Employer contributions to the plan - $45,000 Distributions to employees from the plan - $60,000 Unamortized prior service cost is being amortized over the expected remaining service lives of covered employees, which consists of a total of 9 employees: 2 employees are each expected to have 9 years remaining 3 employees are each expected to have 6 years remaining 4 employees are each expected to have 1 year remaining How much amortization of prior service cost will be included in Derek Co.’s pension expense for year 8?
Answer: $27,000
Explanation:
Amortization of prior cost = (No. of employees / Total number of years left) * Unamortized prior service cost
Total number of years left:
2 employees are each expected to have 9 years remaining = 2 * 9
= 18 years
3 employees are each expected to have 6 years remaining = 3 * 6
= 18 years
4 employees are each expected to have 1 year remaining = 4 * 1
= 4 years
Total number of years = 18 + 18 + 4
= 40 years
Amortization of prior cost = (9 / 40) * 120,000
= $27,000

how to journalize this?
When a business transaction requires a journal entry, we must follow these rules:
The entry must have at least 2 accounts with 1 DEBIT amount and at least 1 CREDIT amount.
The DEBITS are listed first and then the CREDITS.
The DEBIT amounts will always equal the CREDIT amounts.
For another example, let’s look at the transaction analysis we did in the previous chapter for Metro Courier (click Transaction analysis):
1. The owner invested $30,000 cash in the corporation. We analyzed this transaction by increasing both cash (an asset) and common stock (an equity) for $30,000. We learned you increase an asset with a DEBIT and increase an equity with a CREDIT. The journal entry would look like this:
2. Purchased $5,500 of equipment with cash. We analyzed this transaction as increasing the asset Equipment and decreasing the asset Cash. To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit. This journal entry would be:
plz follow me
one thanks give me motivation for answering
plz mark me brainliest
Answer:
All the journal entries illustrated so far have involved one debit and one credit; these journal entries are called simple journal entries. Many business transactions, however, affect more than two accounts. The journal entry for these transactions involves more than one debit and/or credit. Such journal entries are called compound journal entries.
Explanation:
1. The owner invested $30,000 cash in the corporation. We analyzed this transaction by increasing both cash (an asset) and common stock (an equity) for $30,000. We learned you increase an asset with a DEBIT and increase an equity with a CREDIT

3. Purchased a new truck for $8,500 cash. We analyzed this transaction as increasing the asset Truck and decreasing the asset Cash. To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit.
4. Purchased $500 in supplies on account. We analyzed this transaction as increasing the asset Supplies and the liability Accounts Payable. To increase an asset, we debit and to increase a liability, use credit.
5. Paid $300 for supplies previously purchased. Since we previously purchased the supplies and are not buying any new ones, we analyzed this to decrease the liability accounts payable and the asset cash. To decrease a liability, use debit and to decrease and asset, use debit.
6. Paid February and March Rent in advance for $1,800. When we pay for an expense in advance, it is an asset. We want to increase the asset Prepaid Rent and decrease Cash. To increase an asset, we debit and to decrease an asset, use credit.

Sheffield Corp. applies overhead to production at a predetermined rate of 90% based on direct labor cost. Job No. 250, the only job still in process at the end of August, has been charged with manufacturing overhead of $11700. What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000
Answer:
$20,300
Explanation:
Calculation for What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000
Direct materials charged to Job 250=$45,000 - ($11,700 / .90) - $11,700
Direct materials charged to Job 250=$45,000 - $13,000- $11,700
Direct materials charged to Job 250= $20,300
Therefore the amount of direct materials charged to Job 250 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is $45000 will be $20,300
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
