Which of the following is not counted as a part of GDP?
A. the purchase of 100 shares of AT&T stock by your grandfather.
B. the purchase of a snow plough by the city of Minneapolis.
C. the unsold additions to inventory at an appliances store
D. the purchase of a loaf of bread by a consumer
Answer:
C, The unsold additions to inventory at an appliances store.
Explanation:
GDP = Gross DOMESTIC Product
Since the unsold additions are not sold, there's no money coming from it, thus it is not counted in GDP.
Bonus: If you order clothes from Thailand, that is called GNP. It counts as Thailand's GDP because the money is going into the country, and it counts as America's GNP as you are buying goods from another country.
Calculating and using Dual Charging Rates
The expected costs for the Maintenance Department of Stazler, Inc., for the coming year include:
Fixed costs (salaries, tools): $65,400 per year
Variable costs (supplies): $1.3 per maintenance hour

As a student in the Principles of Management class of Ama Ghana University, you are expected to have experiential knowledge so that you can be able to solve real life business problems after graduation. To achieve this objective, the 2020 class has been divided into ten groups; and each team works in a management capacity with ten management consulting companies in the Greater Accra Region. San Consulting - the firm that your group works with is a project management company that is into Real Estate construction and management consulting. This firm which has twenty years’ experience in this business is the first choice for all individuals and companies that want quality service. You have on the contrary, observed that many of the management practices have not developed precipitously as situations in the business environment warrant. The accountant confirmed this by saying in the last general meeting that a certain percentage of San’s profit margin is being lost because of this situation. She gave the example that the surveying department spent eight labor hours generating data that had been generated two weeks ago by another unit. Due to the fact that the surveying department did not know that the data had already been created, a substantial effort was wasted and this has been a recurrent problem.
In addition, the increase in demand of the services of San’s Consulting has placed significant pressures on the five managers whose duties are not clearly defined. For instance, you have observed that any of these managers perform duties in the operations department as well as any other unit within the firm. They are not able to perform all the functions required of them due to the ineffectiveness of the organizational structure.
You and the members of your group are expected to write a report to the top-level management team regarding your analysis of the situation in the firm.
Questions
1. Explain which of the four main management functions is/are not operating as it/they should within the firm? 3 Marks
2. What recommendations will you make in your report that will help assure that this situation or similar one would not happen again? 4 Marks
3. Assume that the top-level management team has accepted your recommendations, how can their effectiveness be evaluated three months after implementation? 4 Marks
4. Discuss the organizational structure currently used by San’s Consulting and would you recommend the continuous use of this structure? If yes or no, present the factors (4) that influenced your decision regarding the right organizational structure for San’s Consulting. 5 Marks
5. Identify and discuss the main problems that the firm is likely to experience (i) if the current structure is continued or (ii) if a new structure is implemented. 5 Marks
1B) Akwamba made this statement ‘organisations cannot be successful if managers fail to pay attention to the forces in the external environment’. Do you agree or not? Justify using practical examples (9 marks)
Answer:
San Consulting
1. There are four main management functions which work coherently: Planning, Organizing tasks & delegation, Leading, and Controlling. The main function is not operating within the firm is Organizing. Tasks which are necessary to achieve organizational plans are not been effectively organized. That is why more than one department will be handling a task.
2. I would recommend that operational tasks are organized and delegated according to functional departments (functional organizational structure). Any task that requires cross-functional efforts should attract the setting up of a project team from relevant departments. The five managers should be in charge of one operational department each, with clear assignment of authorities and responsibilities. This will ensure that they can be held accountable for their departmental results and avoid duplication of efforts companywide.
3. The effectiveness can be evaluated by checking if the problem situation is recurring and also how much is now being saved through proper delegation of responsibilities.
4. San Consulting is currently using a flat organizational structure. This is not suitable for the organization. The best organizational structure will be a functional structure, with clearly defined roles, responsibilities, and reporting lines. Some of the factors that influenced my decision for choosing the functional structure are size and strategy. The size of San Consulting given its businesses and experience shows that it is not a small organization.
5. 1) If the current structure is continued, the firm will continue to witness duplication of efforts by various units, lack of coordination of tasks, and loss of profit margin, companywide. These problems are already been noticed. The only way to solve them is to put an end to the existing structure and then its replacement with a more suitable structure.
5.2) Resistance to change will be the main problem encountered initially with the implementation of a new structure. This is always to be expected. However, all stakeholders can be carried along through proper communication. Brainstorming can even be introduced to enable different contributions to be made on the way forward.
1B) I agree with Akwamba's statement. Every successful organization monitors its external environment and tries to be proactive instead of reactive to external environmental forces. Without such external environmental monitoring, the organizational may find itself in the position of IBM, Xerox, etc. The external environment is made of these factors: customers, competition, economy, technology, political and social conditions, laws and regulations, and resources.
Explanation:
1. There are four management functions which are linked to one another. The first is planning and involves plans designed to achieve goals. The second is the organization of tasks to implement the plans. The third is the leadership that must be provided to ensure that tasks are carried out according to plan. The last is the coordination, which involves the evaluation of activities and results to monitor performance and make improvements.
2. There are four main organizational structures: functional, flat, divisional, and matrix.
3. There are two environments in which an organization operates: internal and external. The organization controls its internal environment. However, its external environment is usually outside its control. But, attention should always be paid to the external environment because of its influences on organizational success and failure.
Dollar-Value LIFO On January 1, 2018, Sato Company adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory costing. Sato's ending inventory records appear as follows: Year Current Cost Index 2018 $40,000 100 2019 56,100 120 2020 58,500 130 2021 70,000 140 Required: Compute the ending inventory for the years 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021, using the dollar-value LIFO method. Do not round your intermediate calculations. If required, round your answers to the nearest dollar. Year Ending inventory 2018 $ 2019 $ 2020 $ 2021 $
Answer:
40,000 ; 48100 ; 46000 ; 53000
Explanation:
Year Current(A) Cost Index(B) base amount(A/B) change from prior year
2018 $40,000 1.00 40000 0
2019 56,100 1.20 46750 6750
2020 58,500 1.30 45000 (1750)
2021 70,000 1.40 50000 5000
Year 2018 = $40,000
Year 2019:
$40000 × 1.00 = $40,000
$6750 × 1.20 = 8100
$40,000 + 8100 = $48100
Year 2020:
$40000 × 1.00 = $40,000
($6750 - $1,750 = $5000) × 1.20 = $6,000
40000 + 6000 =$46000
Year 2021 :
$40,000 × 1.00 =$40,000
($6750 - $1750 = $5000) × 1.20 = $6000
$5000 × 1.40 = $7000
40000 + 6000 + 7000 =$53000
A corporation has 41,770 shares of $35 par stock outstanding that has a current market value of $292 per share. If the corporation issues a 4-for-1 stock split, the market value of the stock will fall to approximately a.$1,168.00 b.$8.75 c.$73.00 d.$257.00
Answer:
c. $73.00 per share
Explanation:
The computation of market value of the stock will fall to approximately is shown below:-
The market value of the stock will fall to approximately = Market value per share ÷ 4-for-1 stock split
= $292 ÷ 4-for-1 stock split
= $73.00 per share
Therefore for computing the market value of the stock will fall to approximately we simply applied the above formula.

Assets totaled $24,750 and liabilities totaled $8,550 at the beginning of the year. During the year, assets decreased by $3,550 and liabilities increased by $2,850. What is the amount of the change in stockholders' equity during the year?
Answer:
Amount of the change in stockholders' equity during the year is $6,400 (Decrease)
Explanation:
Assets = $24,750
Liabilities = $8,550
Equity = Assets - Liability
Equity at Beginning : $24,750 -$8,550 = $16,200
Equity at End : ($24,750 - $3,550) - ($8,550+$2,850)
= $21,200 - $11,400
= $9,800
Change in Stock holder's Equity : $16,200 -$9,800
= $6,400(Decrease)

Sam and Amanda moved from Hawaii to Iowa. Their grocery budget has remained at $100 per month, but the price of their groceries has dramatically gone down due to cost of living! They used to pay $10 for a dozen organic eggs (let Q1 represent the number of dozens of eggs) but now they pay $5. For frozen pizza (Q2) they paid $15 but now they are paying $10. What is Sam and Amanda's new budget constraint?
Answer:
A budget constraint is the amount of goods and service that a person or firm can purchase given their income.
In this case, the budget constraint of Sam and Amanda is determined by their income: that is to say, their monthly grocery budget, which is $100 per month.
Because a dozen organic egg costs $5, and a frozen pizza costs $10, if we suppose that Sam Amanda will spend half their income on each item, their budget constraint will allow them to buy the following amounts:
$50 / $5 = 10 dozen organic eggs
$50 / $10 = 5 frozen pizzas.
Blossom Company sells office equipment on July 31, 2022, for $23,730 cash. The office equipment originally cost $79,700 and as of January 1, 2022, had accumulated depreciation of $36,130. Depreciation for the first 7 months of 2022 is $4,970.
Prepare the journal entries to (a) update depreciation to July 31, 2014, and (b) record the sale of the equipment. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually.)
Answer:
a. The entries are:
Debit Depreciation expenses for $4,920;
Credit Accumulated depreciation for $4,920.
b. The entries are:
Debit Cash for $23,730
Debit Accumulated depreciation for $41,100
Debit Loss on disposal of equipment for $14,870
Credit Equipment for $79,700
Explanation:
(a) Prepare the journal entries to update depreciation to July 31, 2022.
Note: the correct date to update to is July 31, 2022 not the wrongly stated July 31, 2014 in the question.
The journal entries will look as as follows:
Date Particulars Dr ($) Cr ($)
July 31 Depreciation expenses 4,920
Accumulated depreciation 4,920
To record the updating of depreciation to July 31, 2022.
(a) Prepare the journal entries to record the sale of the equipment.
To prepare this, we need to first calculate the gain or loss on disposal as follows:
Accumulated depreciation till date = $36,130 + $4,970 = $41,100
Net book value = Equipment cost - Accumulated depreciation till date = $79,700 - $41,100 = $38,600
Gain or loss on disposal = Sales proceed - Net book value = $23,730 - $38,600 = $14,870 loss
The journal entries will be as follows:
Date Particulars Dr ($) Cr ($)
July 31 Cash 23,730
Accumulated depreciation 41,100
Loss on disposal of equipment 14,870
Equipment 79,700
(To record disposal of equipment.)

Balance sheet and income statement data indicate the following: Bonds payable, 11% (due in 15 years) $1,023,237 Preferred 8% stock, $100 par (no change during the year) $200,000 Common stock, $50 par (no change during the year) $1,000,000 Income before income tax for year $383,882 Income tax for year $115,165 Common dividends paid $60,000 Preferred dividends paid $16,000 Based on the data presented above, what is the times interest earned ratio (round to two decimal places)
Answer:
The times interest earned (TIE) ratio = 4.41 times
Explanation:
The times interest earned (TIE) ratio is an accounting ratio that shows the extent to which the income income of an organization can be used to cover its future interest expenses. This can be calculated as follows:
TIE Ratio = Earning before interest and tax (EBIT) / Interest expenses
Since,
Bonds payable, 11% (due in 15 years) = $1,023,237
Interest expenses = 11% * $1,023,237 = $112,556.07
Income before income tax for year = $383,882
EBIT = Interest expenses + Income before income tax for year = $112,556.07 + $383,882 = $496,438.07
Therefore, we have:
The times interest earned (TIE) ratio = $496,438.07 / $112,556.07 = 4.41 times
This shows that the income is 4.41 times greater than its annual interest expense. That is, the income can cover the annual interest 4.41 times.
g Romans sells the Regular blend for $3.60 per pound and the DeCaf blend for $4.40 per pound. Romans would like to place an order for the Brazilian and Colombian coffee beans that will enable the production of 1000 pounds of Romans Regular coffee and 500 pounds of Romans DeCaf coffee. The production cost is $0.80 per pound for the Regular blend. Because of the extra steps required to produce DeCaf, the production cost for the DeCaf blend is $1.05 per pound. Packaging costs for both products are $0.25 per pound. Formulate a linear programming model that can be used to determine the pounds of Brazilian Natural and Colombian Mild that will maximize the total contribution to profit.
Romans Food Market, located in Saratoga, New York, carries a variety of specialty foods from around the world. Two of the stores leading products use the Romans Food Market name: Romans Regular Coffee and Romans DeCaf Coffee. These coffees are blends of Brazilian Natural and Columbian mild coffee beans, which are purchased from a distributor from New York City. Because Romans purchases large quantities the coffee beans may be purchased om an as need basis for the price of 10% higher than the market price the distributor pays for the beans. The current market price is $0.47 per pound for Brazilian Natural and $0.62 per pound for Columbian Mild The composition of each coffee blend are as follows:
Bean Regular DeCaf Blend
Brazilian Natural 75% 40%
Columbian Mild 25% 60%
Romans sells the Regular blend for $3.60 per pound and the DeCaf blend for $4.40 per pound. Romans would like to place an order for the Brazilian and Colombian coffee beans that will enable the production of 1000 pounds of Romans Regular coffee and 500 pounds of Romans DeCaf coffee. The production cost is $0.80 per pound for the Regular blend. Because of the extra steps required to produce DeCaf, the production cost for the DeCaf blend is $1.05 per pound. Packaging costs for both products are $0.25 per pound. Formulate a linear programming model that can be used to determine the pounds of Brazilian Natural and Colombian Mild that will maximize the total contribution to profit.
Answer:
[tex]\mathbf{Max \ Z = 2.033 BR + 2.583 BD + 1.868 CR + 2.418 CD}[/tex]
Explanation:
From the given information:
The total revenue can be illustrated as :
Total revenue = 3.6 BR + 4.4 BD + 3.6 CR + 4.4 CD
On the other hand; the total cost of the beans is:
= 1.1 (0.47 BR + 0.47 BD + 0.62 CR + 0.62 CD)
= 0.517 BR + 0.517 BD + 0.682 CR + 0.682 CD
Also; The total production cost is :
= 0.8 BR + 1.05 BD + 0.8 CR + 1.05 CD
The total profit = Total revenue - Total Cost of Beans - Total Production Cost
The total profit = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{}3.6 BR + 4.4 BD + 3.6 CR + 4.4 CD\\- (0.517 BR + 0.517 BD + 0.682 CR + 0.682 CD)\\-(0.8 BR + 1.05 BD + 0.8 CR + 1.05 CD)\end{array}\right][/tex]
The total profit = 2.033 BR + 2.583 BD + 1.868 CR + 2.418 CD
Therefore the linear programming model represents the Objective function of the total profit as:
[tex]\mathbf{Max \ Z = 2.033 BR + 2.583 BD + 1.868 CR + 2.418 CD}[/tex]
Kansas Enterprises purchased equipment for $72,500 on January 1, 2021. The equipment is expected to have a five-year service life, with a residual value of $7,950 at the end of five years. Using the straight-line method, the book value at December 31, 2021, would be:
Answer:
Depreciation expense $12,910
Book value $46,680
Explanation:
Kansas Enterprises
Formula for Depreciation expenses
Annual depreciation expense=(Cost-Residual value)/Useful Life
Where,
Cost = 72,500
Residual value =7,950
Useful life = 5 years
Let plug in the formula
=(72,500-7950)/5
=64,550/5
=$12,910/year
Therefore depreciation expense for 2021
=$12,910
Calulation for Book value
Book value = $72,500 – ($12,910× 2)
$72,500 -$25,820
=$46,680
Therefore the book value would be $46,680

Xu owns two investments, A and B, that have a combined total value of $40,000. Investment A is expected to pay $28,000 in 3 years from today and has an expected return of 7.1 percent per year. Investment B is expected to pay $36,000 in T years from today and has an expected return of 5.5 percent per year. What is T, the number of years from today that investment B is expected to pay $36,000?
Answer:
The number of years is [tex]T =13 \ years[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The total value of the investment A and B is [tex]k =[/tex]$40, 000
The future value of A is [tex]F_A =[/tex]$28,000
The time period is t = 3
The expected return of A is [tex]e_A =[/tex] 7.1 % = 0.071
The future value of B is [tex]F_B =[/tex]$36,000
The time period for B is T
The expected return of B is [tex]e_B =[/tex]5.5 % = 0.055
The present value of investment A is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = \frac{F_A }{(1 + e_A) ^t}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]A = \frac{ 28000 }{(1 + 0.071) ^3}[/tex]
[tex]A =[/tex]$ 22792.38
The present value of B is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]B = k - A[/tex]
substituting values
B = 40, 000 - 22792.38
B = $17,208
The future value of B is
[tex]F_B = B * (1 + e_B)^T[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]36,000 =17,208 * (1 + 0.055)^T[/tex]
[tex]2.0921 = (1.055)^T[/tex]
take log of both sides
[tex]log(2.0921) =log (1.055)^T[/tex]
[tex]0.32057 = T log (1.055)[/tex]
=> [tex]T = \frac{0.3206}{0.0232}[/tex]

Answer:
$4,000
Explanation:
For computation of the government's total support payments to producers first we need to find out the surplus units which is shown below:
Floor price = $40
[tex]Q_d = 180[/tex]
[tex]Q_s = 280[/tex]
[tex]Surplus\ units[/tex] = [tex]Q_s - Q_d[/tex]
= 280 - 180
= 100
Therefore,
The Total support payments to producer = Price floor × Surplus units
= $40 × 100
= $4,000
So, for determining the total support payment to producer we simply multiply the price floor with surplus units.

Questions
Aborkian Co. is forecasting sales of 75,000 units of product for November. To make one unit of finished product, seven pounds of raw materials are required. Actual beginning and desired ending inventories of raw materials and finished goods are:
November 1 November 30
(Actual) (Desired)
Raw materials (pounds) 91,400 86,400
Finished goods 8,500 9,600
(a.) Calculate the number of units of product to be produced during November.
(b.) Calculate the number of pounds of raw materials to be purchased during November
Answer:
Number of units to be produced= 76,100 units
Raw materials to be purchased= 527,700 pounds
Explanation:
Units to be produced
Number of units to be produced = sales budget + closing inventory - opening inventory
= 75,000 + 9,600 - 8,500 = 76,100 units
Number of units to be produced= 76,100 units
Raw materials purchase budget
Raw materials to be purchased = Raw materials to be used + closing inventory of raw materials - opening inventory of raw materials
Raw material usage = production units × standard pounds per unit
= 76,100× 7 =532700 pounds
Raw materials to be purchased = 532,700 +86,400 - 91,400=527700
Raw materials to be purchased= 527,700 pounds

Suppose Ms. Smith sells her 2018 Honda Fit next year. The original cost of the
vehicle was $10,000. During the time she has owned the car she has taken $3,000 dollars
of deprecation on it. Ms. Williams sells the car for $9,000. What is result of the transaction?
A. An ordinary loss of $1,000
B. Long-term capital gain of $2,000
C. An ordinary gain of $2,000
D. An ordinary gain of $6,000
Answer:
An ordinary gain of $2,000
Explanation:
Ms. Smith wants to sell her 2018 Honda fit car next year
The original cost of the car is $10,000
She has incurred $3,000 worth of depreciation on it during the period that she has used the car
She sells the car for $9,000
Her transaction rate can be calculated as follows:
Net value of the car= $10,000-$3,000
= $7,000
Amount of gain realized while selling the car= $9,000-$7,000
= $2,000
Hence Ms. Smith has an ordinary gain of $2,000 after selling her car
Juggernaut Satellite Corporation earned $19.6 million for the fiscal year ending yesterday. The firm also paid out 30 percent of its earnings as dividends yesterday. The firm will continue to pay out 30 percent of its earnings as annual, end-of-year dividends. The remaining 70 percent of earnings is retained by the company for use in projects. The company has 2.8 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current stock price is $84. The historical return on equity (ROE) of 14 percent is expected to continue in the future.
What is the required rate of return on the stock?
Answer:
The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
The Company is distributing 30% of its earnings as dividends
Therefore, company is retaining = 100-30 = 70% of its earnings
Growth = Retention ratio * ROE = 0.7*0.14 = 9.8%
Earning = 19.6 million
hence, Paid as dividends = 19.6*0.3 = $5.88 million
The Number of shares outstanding = 2.8 million
hence, Dividend per share = Total dividends / number of shares outstanding = 5.88/2.8 = $2.1
Current stock price = $84
Therefore, to calculate the required rate of return on the stock we would have to use the following formula:
Price of stock = Current dividend*(1+growth)/(r-growth), where r is required rate of return
84 = 2.1*(1.098)/(r-0.098)
40 = 1.098/(r-0.098)
r - 0.098 = 0.02745
r = 0.02745+0.098 = 0.12545
The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%

The company has 22,000 defective units that cost $6 per unit to manufacture. The units can be a) sold as is for $2.00 each, or b) reworked for $4.50 each and then sold for the full price of $8.50 each. What is the incremental income from selling the units as scrap and reworking and selling the units
Answer:
Sales as scrap $44,000
Rework $88,000
Explanation:
Sale as Scrap Rework
Sales of scrap units(22,000×$2.00)
44,000
Sales of Rework units (22,000×$8.50) 187,000
Costs to Rework units(22,000×$4.50) 99,000
Incremental income/loss
44,000 88,000
The company should should REWORK because it has incremental income of 88,000(187,000-99,000) which is higher than that of SCRAP $44,000
