New Zealand and Spain each produce apples and plums. New Zealand can produce a maximum of 60 apples or 15 plums or some combination of both. Spain can produce a maximum of 60 apples or 60 plums or some combination of both. If they decide to specialize and trade, the trade rate is 25 apples for 17 plums.a. Which nation should specialize in plums and which should specialize in apples
Answer:
New Zealand should specialize in apples.
Spain should specialize in plums.
Explanation:
As per the given production possibility tables, New Zealand must produce maximum apples in the available resources while Spain is able to produce maximum plums with the given resources. To produce 1 plum, New Zealand requires resources equivalent to 4 apples. This shows that New Zealand needs to specialize in apples for efficient utilization of resources. Although the cost of producing plum and apple is almost equivalent for Spain since, New Zealand is already involved in producing apples, It must go for Plums.
The interest rate effect of a decrease in the aggregate price level will increase which of the following?
Answer:
Investment spending.
Explanation:
Rate of return can be defined as the percentage of interest or dividends earned on money that is invested.
In Financial accounting, a return refers to the amount of profit generated by an investor on an investment over a specific period of time.
Basically, the rate of return which is typically expressed as a percentage of the initial costs of an investment can either be a gain or a loss on an investment. Therefore, a positive rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, simply means that an investor is making a profit (gains) while a negative rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, indicates that the investor is running at a loss.
The interest rate effect of a decrease in the aggregate price level will increase investment spending.
usiness Solutions sells upscale modular desk units and office chairs in the ratio of 3:2 (desk unit:chair). The selling prices are $1,250 per desk unit and $500 per chair. The variable costs are $750 per desk unit and $250 per chair. Fixed costs are $120,000. Required: 1. Compute the selling price per composite unit. 2. Compute the variable costs per composite unit. 3. Compute the break-even point in composite units. 4. Compute the number of units of each product that w
Answer:
1. Selling price per composite unit = Price of desk unit * (Ratio of desk unit) + Price of chair * (Ratio of chair)
= $1250*(3) + $500*(2)
= $3,750 + $1,000
= $4,750
2. Variable costs per composite unit = Variable cost per desk unit * (Ratio of desk unit) + Variable cost per chair * (Ratio of chair)
= $750*(3) + $250*(2)
= $2,250 + $500
= $2,750
3. Break even point in composite units = Fixed costs / (Composite selling price - Composite variable cost)
= $120,000 / ($4750 - $2750)
= $120,000 / $2000
= 60 units
4. Number desk units sold at break even point = 60 composite units* 3 per composite unit = 180 units
Number of chairs sold at break even point = 60 composite units * 2 per composite unit = 120 units

= [($34-$20)*124,000*3/4] - [($31-$20)*124,000*2/4]
= [$14*124,000*3/4] - [$11*124,000*2/4]
= $1,302,000 - $682,000
= $620,000

Palpatine runs a facial cream business. He can make 100,000 bottles of facial cream per year and sell them for $3.50 each. It costs Palpatine $250,000 for the raw materials to produce the facial cream. Additionally, he must pay $30,000 annually to rent the factory needed to produce his cream. In order to start his business Palpatine withdrew $200,000 from his own savings account. The bank is currently paying a 3% interest rate on saving accounts. Before Palpatine opened his business he worked as a political consultant where he earned $80,000 per year.
What is the total revenue Palpatine earns in a year?
What are the explicit costs Palpatine incurs while producing bottles of facial cream? [2 Points]
(c) What are the implicit costs Palpatine incurs while producing bottles of facial cream? [2 Points]
(d) What is the amount of Palpatine’s accounting profit? [2 Points]
(e) What is the amount of Palpatine’s economic profit?
Answer:
a. Total revenue:
= Bottles produced * selling price
= 100,000 * 3.50
= $350,000
b. Explicit costs:
Actual costs incurred.
= Raw materials + Rent + investment
= 250,000 + 30,000 + 200,000
= $480,000
c. Implicit costs:
Opportunity costs of going into the facial cream business.
= Amount he would have earned as interest + political consultant salary
= (3% * 200,000) + 80,000
= 6,000 + 80,000
= $86,000
d. Accounting profit:
= Revenue - explicit costs
= 350,000 - 480,000
= -$130,000
e. Economic profit
= Revenue - explicit costs - implicit costs
= 350,000 - 480,000 - 86,000
= -$216,000

Doogan Corporation makes a product with the following standard costs: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Direct materials 7.4 grams $ 2.00 per gram Direct labor 0.5 hours $ 20.00 per hour Variable overhead 0.5 hours $ 7.00 per hour The company produced 5,200 units in January using 39,310 grams of direct material and 2,380 direct labor-hours. During the month, the company purchased 44,400 grams of the direct material at $1.70 per gram. The actual direct labor rate was $19.30 per hour and the actual variable overhead rate was $6.80 per hour. The company applies variable overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased. The labor rate variance for January is:
Answer:
Direct labor rate variance= $1,666 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The company produced 5,200 units in January using 2,380 direct labor-hours.
The actual direct labor rate was $19.30 per hour
To calculate the direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Direct labor rate variance= (20 - 19.3)*2,380
Direct labor rate variance= $1,666 favorable
Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below:
Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost
Direct materials 4.6 pounds $2.50 per pound $11.50
Direct labor 0.2 hours $18.00 per hour $3.60
During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded:
a. Twenty thousand pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.35 per pound.
b. All of the material purchased was used to produce 4,000 units of Zoom.
c. 750 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $14,925.
Required:
Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month.
Answer:
AQ = Actual quantity = 20,000 pounds
AP = Actual price = $2.35 per pound.
SQ = Standard quantity = 4,000 units*4.6 pounds per unit = 18,400 pounds
SP = Standard price = $2.50 per unit
AH = Actual hours = 750 hours.
AR = Actual rate = Total actual cost/Actual hours = $14,925/750 hours = $19.90.
SH= Standard hours = 0.2 hours per unit*4,000 units = 800 hours.
SR = Standard rate = $18 per hour
Materials price variance = (AQ *AP) - (AQ *SP) =
Materials price variance = (20,000*$2.35) - (20,000 *$2.50)
Materials price variance = $47,000 - $50,000
Materials price variance = $3,000 (F)
Material quantity variance = (AQ*SP) - (SQ*SP)
Material quantity variance = (20,000*$2.50) - (18,400*$2.50)

According to the theory of comparative advantage, consumers in all nations can consume more if there are
Answer:
no restrictions on trade
Explanation:
Comparative advantage in economics is the ability of an individual or country to produce a specific good or service at a lower opportunity cost better than another individual or country.
The comparative advantage gives a country a stronger sales margin than their competitors as they are able to sell their specific products or render their peculiar services at a lower opportunity cost.
In 1817, David Ricardo who is an english political economist talked about the law of comparative advantage in his book “On the Principles of Political Economy and Taxation." where he asserted that countries can become better off by specializing in what they do or produce best and eliminate trade barriers (restrictions).
This simply means that, any country applying the principle of comparative advantage, would enjoy an increase in output and consequently, a boost in their Gross Domestic Products (GDP).
Hence, according to the theory of comparative advantage, consumers in all nations can consume more if there are no restrictions on trade.
Activity-Based Costing for a Service Business Sterling Hotel uses activity-based costing to determine the cost of servicing customers. There are three activity pools: guest check-in, room cleaning, and meal service. The activity rates associated with each activity pool are $8.40 per guest check-in, $21.00 per room cleaning, and $4.00 per served meal (not including food). Julie Stone visited the hotel for a 6-night stay. Julie had 3 meals in the hotel during the visit. Determine the total monthly activity-based cost for Washington during the month.
Answer:
Total allocated cost= $146.4
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Julie Stone visited the hotel for a 6-night stay.
Julie had 3 meals in the hotel during the visit.
guest check-in= $8.40 per guest check-in
room cleaning= $21.00 per room cleaning
meal service= $4.00 per served meal
To allocate costs based on the activity, we need to use the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
guest check-in= 8.40*1= 8.4
room cleaning= 21.00*6= 126
meal service= 4.00*3= 12
Total allocated cost= $146.4
Company A and Company B are a duopoly, an oligopoly of only two firms. Neither company advertises its product and both firms earn $10 million in profits.

Company A' Profits
Don't Adevertise Advertise
Don't Advertise A: $10 million A: $12 million
B: $10 million B: $6 million
Company B's Profits A: $6 million A: $8 million
B: $12 million B: $8 million
If Company A increases its advertising budget, Company B should:____.
A. Shut down.
B. Continue to not advertise.
C. Increase its advertising budget.
D. Increase the price it charges to increase profits.
Answer: C. Increase its advertising budget.
Explanation:
If Company A advertises and Company B does not, Company B profits are $6 million compared to $12 million for Company A. If both company advertise, they both have a profit of $8 million.
It is therefore important that when A advertises, B should advertise as well. This is why B should increase its advertising budget when A does because it will lead to them having a better income than they would should A advertise more.
