Answer:
Once expenses have been identified, they can be categorized as either fixed expenses or variable expenses.
For example, your mortgage would be considered a __fixed__ expense, because _the total amount does not vary_. Conversely, grocery bills would be considered _variable_, because the actual amount is _varies_.
Explanation:
Fixed expenses are fixed in total within a relevant range. The amount remains the same from one period to the next. The element of the fixed expense that changes is the cost per unit and not the total amount. On the other hand, variable expenses vary in total because of their quantities vary but their costs per unit remain fixed.

For the current year, Power Cords Corp. expected to sell 42,000 industrial power cords. Fixed costs were expected to total $1,650,000; unit sales price was expected to be $3,750; and unit variable costs were budgeted at $2,250. Power Cords Corp.'s margin of safety (MOS) in units is:
A. 40,900.
B. 48,800
C. 39,000.
D. 32,500.
E. 36,100.
Answer:
A. 40,900
Explanation:
Calculation for what Power Cords Corp.'s margin of safety (MOS) in units is:
First step is to calculate the Break-even
Break-even units = $1,650,000/($3,750 - $2,250)
Break-even units= 1,100 units
Now let calculate the margin of safety (MOS) in units
Margin of Safety = 42,000 - 1,100
Margin of Safety= 40,900 units
Therefore Power Cords Corp.'s margin of safety (MOS) in units is:40,900

Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years using each of the following methods. Round all amounts to the nearest dollar.
1. Straight-line.
2. Double-declining-balance.
3. Activity-based.
Actual miles driven each year were 40,000 miles in year 1 and 46,000 miles in year 2.
Answer:
Straight line method
Year 1. $7,400
Year 2. $7,400
Double - Declining Balance method
Year 1= 18,000
Year 2= 9,000
Activity Based method
Year 1= 8,000
Year 2=9,200
Explanation:
Calculation for the annual depreciation for the first two years using Straight line method for year 1 & 2
STRAIGHT LINE METHOD
Year 1 =(36,000 - 6400) / 4 year
Year 1 =29,600/4 year
Year 1= 7,400
Year 2 =(36,000 - 6400) / 4 year
Year 2 =29,600/4 year
Year 2= 7,400
Calculation for the annual depreciation for the first two years using Double - Declining Balance method
DOUBLE DECLINE BALANCE METHOD
Year 1= (2/4) x (36,000 - 0)
Year 1= (2/4) x 36,000
Year 1= 18,000
Year 2= (2/4) x (36,000 - 18,000)
Year 2= (2/4) x18,000
Year 2= 9,000
Calculation for the annual depreciation for the first two years using Activity Based method
ACTIVITY BASED METHOD
Year 1= [ (36,000 - 6,400) / (148,000) ] x (40,000 miles)
Year 1=( 29,600/148,000)×40,000 miles
Year 1=0.2×40,000 miles
Year 1= 8,000
Year 2= [ (36,000 - 6,400) / (148,000) ] x (46,000 miles)
Year 2 =(29,600/148,000)×46,000 miles
Year 2=0.2×46,000 miles
Year 2 = 9,200
Therefore the annual depreciation for the first two years is:
Straight line method
Year 1. $7,400
Year 2. $7,400
Double - Declining Balance method
Year 1= 18,000
Year 2= 9,000
Activity Based method
Year 1= 8,000
Year 2=9,200
Wilson Products uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate of $10 per direct labor-hour. Direct material and direct labor associated with Job X23 are $4,000 and $1,200, respectively. If Job X23 used 100 direct labor-hours to produce 50 audio controllers, what is this job’s unit product cost (per audio controller)?
Answer:
the job unit product cost is $124
Explanation:
The computation of the job unit product cost is as follows:
= Total cost assigned ÷ number of audio controllers produced
= ($4,000 + $1,200 + $10 × 100) ÷ (50)
= ($4,000 + $1,200 + $1,000) ÷ (50)
= $6,200 ÷ 50
= $124
hence the job unit product cost is $124

Explanation:
The resource market is the market where firms buy resources for the production of goods and services. This means that the resource market deals in the transfer of inputs: labor, capital, land, and entrepreneurship from households to firms. In the product market, households buy output, i.e. goods and services from firms.

You paid $100 for a ticket to the Broadway show Hamilton, for which your value of
attending is $250. In NYC the day the show, you legally sell your ticket on the secondary
market for $1,000. This is an example of?
Answer:
avoiding the hidden or sunk cost fallacy.
Explanation:
The hidden or sunk cost fallacy refers to not realizing that a sunk cost has occurred and no matter what you do, you will not recover it or in this case, enjoy it. A classic example are all you can eat buffets and people simply eating too much because they paid for it.
In this case, if you had not sold the ticket and not earned the profit, you would have incurred in the sunk cost fallacy by not recognizing that you could benefit more from selling the ticket instead of just insisting on going to see the play.
The following table describes the production possibilities of two cities in the country of Baseballia: Pairs of Red Socks per Worker per Hour Pairs of White Socks per Worker per HourBoston 3 6Chicago 5 4Without trade, the price of a pair of white socks (in terms of red socks) in Boston is_______ of red socks, and in Chicago it is ___________ of red socks. _________has an absolute advantage in the production of red socks, and _________ has an absolute advantage in the production of white socks. ___________has a comparative advantage in the production of red socks, and______ has a comparative advantage in the production of white socks. If the cities trade with each other, Boston will export _________socks, and Chicago will export _________socks. The price of white socks can be expressed in terms of red socks. The highest price at which white socks can be traded that would make both cities better off is _________of red socks per pair of white socks, and the lowest price that makes both cities better off is ________of red socks per pair of white socks.
Answer:
1. (0.5 pairs of red socks) and (1.25 pairs of red socks)
2. (Chicago) and (Boston)
3. (Chicago) and (Boston)
4. (White socks) and (Red Socks)
5. (1.25) and (0.5)
Explanation:
Let's extract the meaning of data from the data given.
Boston produces 3 red socks per worker per hour and 6 white socks per worker per hour
B = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 3 pairs Red Socks
B = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 6 pairs white socks
Boston = whites socks in terms of red socks
6 white socks = 3 red socks
white socks = 3/6 red socks
white socks = 0.5 pairs of red socks. It means, Boston will be producing double the amount of white socks than red socks. Hence, white socks production advantage in Boston.
Chicago = white socks in terms of red socks
4 white socks = 5 red socks
white socks = 5/4 red socks
white socks = 1.25 red socks , it means Chicago will produce greater amount of red socks than white socks. Hence, red socks production advantage in Chicago.
C = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 5 pairs Red socks
C = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 4 pairs white socks
It means in Boston, we have advantage of producing white socks and in Chicago we have advantage of producing red socks.
Fill in the blanks:
1. (0.5 pairs of red socks) and (1.25 pairs of red socks)
2. (Chicago) and (Boston)
3. (Chicago) and (Boston)
4. (White socks) and (Red Socks)
5. (1.25) and (0.5)

Hello
Claremore Industries uses a weighted-average process-costing system. All materials are added at the beginning of the process; conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout production. The company finished 40,000 units during the period and had 15,000 units in progress at year-end, the latter at the 40% stage of completion. Total material costs amounted to $220,000; conversion costs were $414,000. The cost of the ending work in process is: Multiple Choice $54,000. $78,000. $114,000. $195,000. None of the answers is correct.
Answer:
$78,000
Explanation:
Calculation for The cost of the ending work in process
First step is to calculate the Material cost per unit.
Material cost per unit = $220,000 / (40,000+15,000)
Material cost per unit= $220,000 / 55,000
Material cost per unit= $4
Second step is to calculate the Conversion cost per unit
Conversion cost per unit= $414,000 / (40,000 + (15,000*40%)
Conversion cost per unit= $414000 / 46000
Conversion cost per unit= $9
Third step is to calculate total cost per equivalent unit
Total cost per equivalent unit= $4 + $9
Total cost per equivalent unit= $13
Fourth step is to calculate the equivalent unit of the ending work in process
Equivalent unit of the ending work in process= 15,000 × 40%
Equivalent unit of the ending work in process= 6,000
Now let calculate cost of the ending work in process
Cost of the ending work in process = 6,000 × $13
Cost of the ending work in process = $78,000
Therefore The cost of the ending work in process is $78,000
In a market without price controls, producers can charge the _____, so that consumers will buy all of their products. I Need Help Please!!
surplus price
shortage price
equilibrium price
Answer:
equilibrium price
Explanation:
At the equilibrium point, the market does not experience a shortage or excess in either demand or supply. The quantity demanded matches the quantity supplied. The equilibrium price is the price at the equilibrium point where demand and supply meet.
Because there are no shortages or excesses at the equilibrium point, suppliers will sell all their products if they set a selling price equal to the equilibrium price. Buyers will purchase all the quantities supplied at the equilibrium price.
The unit of measure concept a.is only used in the financial statements of manufacturing companies b.requires that economic data be reported in yen in Japan or dollars in the United States c.requires that different units be used for assets and liabilities d.is not important when applying the cost concept
Answer: b.requires that economic data be reported in yen in Japan or dollars in the United States
Explanation:
The unit of measure concept simply has to do with the standard convention that is used whereby there must be thesame currency used in recording transactions that takes place.
The concept requires that economic data be reported in yen in Japan or dollars in the United States. Therefore, the correct option is A.

If the company had sales of $4.27 million, what is the price-sales ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Price-sales ratio times
Answer:
Makers Corp.
a. Earnings per share = $3.40
b. Dividends per share = $1,27
c. Book value per share = $34.50
d. Market to book ratio times = 2.03 times
e. Price-earnings ratio times = 20.59 times
f. Price-Sales ratio times = 2.30 times
Explanation:
a) Retained Earnings = $298,000
Cash Dividends paid = $178,000
Total earnings = $ 476,000 ($298,000 + $178,000)
Ending total equity = $4.83 million
Outstanding common stock = 140,000 shares
Earnings per share = $476,000/140,000 = $3.40 per share
Dividends per share = $178,000/140,000 = $1.27 per share
Book value per share = $4.83 million/140,000 = $34.50
Market-to-book ratio = $70/$34.50 = 2.03 : 1
Price-earnings ratio = $70/$3.40 = 20.59 : 1
Sales per share = $4.27 million /140,000 shares = $30.50
Price-sales ratio = $70/$30.50 = 2.30 : 1

If the firm is operating at full capacity and no new debt or equity is issued, what external finaning is needed to support the 20 percent growth rate in sales?
Answer:
$5,006.07
Explanation:
The external financing needed = Projected Increase in Assets - Increase in Liabilities - Increase in Retained Earnings
Projected Increase in Asset = Assets Value*Sales Growth Rate
Projected Increase in Assets = $364,720 * 20%
Projected Increase in Assets = $72,944
Increase in Liabilities = Liabilities * Sales Growth Rate
Increase in Liabilities = $69,600 * 20%
Increase in Liabilities = $13,920
To calculate the Increase in Retained Earning, the below calculations are needed:
a. Profit Margin Rate = Net Income / Sales * 100
Profit Margin Rate = 75,000 / 751,000 * 100
Profit Margin Rate = 9.99%
b. Dividend Payout Ratio = Dividend / Net Income * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = 30,000 / 75,000 * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = 0.4
Dividend Payout Ratio = 40%
Retention Rate = 1 - Dividend Payout Ratio
Retention Rate = 1 - 0.40
Retention Rate = 0.60
Retention Rate = 60%
c. Expected Sales = $751,000 * 1.20 = $901,200
So, the Increase in Retained Earning = Expected Sales * Profit Margin * Retention Rate = $901,200 *9.99% * 60% = $54,017.93
Therefore, External Fund Needed = $72,944 - $13,920 - $54,017.93 = $5,006.07
Okay party tray which cost $14 to make not including labor was sold for $35 if two people work 8-hour shift make it the tree $7 per hour how many tree must be sold to cover all costs including labor
Answer:
2.67 trays
Explanation:
Calculation for how many trays must be sold to cover all costs including labor
First step is to calculate the Total Labor
Total labor = $7 per hour*8-hour shift
Total labor=56
Second step is to the profit per tray
Profit per tray=$35-$14
Profit per tray=$21
Now let calculate how many trays must be sold
Using this formula
Numbers of trays to be sold=Total labor/Profit per tray
Let plug in the formula
Numbers of trays to be sold=56/21
Numbers of trays to be sold=2.67 trays
Therefore the numbers of trays that must be sold to cover all costs including labor is 2.67 trays

We add and subtract the amounts according to the schedule.
In this schedule the indirect material is deducted from the direct materials inventory and added to the factory overhead because it is not treated as a direct expense rather it is an indirect expense.
The following are not related to the cost of manufacturing of products and are excluded from the CGS.
Administrative salaries (non-factory) $105,000
Administrative rent (non-factory) 52,500
Advertising and promotion expense 61,500
Depreciation-administrative 33,000
Depreciation-selling 25,500
Sales 1,267,500
Sales salaries expense 108,000

Suppose Suzuki has the following demand and supply function for Cultus VXL: Qd = 55 - 5P Qs = -50 + 10P After the government decided to impose tax on the production of Cultus VXL, the new supply function: Qs = -60 + 10P Given the information above answer the following questions: Find out the equilibrium price and quantity before tax. Find consumer and producer surplus before tax. Determine government revenue and dead weight loss after tax.
Answer:
Explanation:
From the information given:
The equilibrium price before tax creates an intersection between the demand and supply.
Qd = 55 -5 P Qs = -50 + 10 P
i.e.
55 - 5P = -50 + 10P
55 + 50 = -5P +10P
110 = 5P
P = 110 / 5
P' = 7
replacing the value of P into the demand equation; we have
Qd = 55 - 5P
Qd = 55 - 5(7)
Qd = 55 - 35
Q' = 20
This tells us that the equilibrium quantity = 20 prior to the equilibrium price which is 7 before tax.
Consumer Surplus = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2} Q' \times (P-P')[/tex]
= [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}\times 20 \times (11 -7)[/tex] (∵ if P is the intercept of the demand and Q is set to be 0, P =11)
Consumer Surplus = 40
Producer surplus = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}Q^*(P^*-P')[/tex]
here;
P' = y-intercept of supply curve = 5 since we set Qs to be 0
[tex]=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 20 \times (7-5)[/tex]
Producer surplus = 20
Thus prior to commencement of the tax consumer surplus and producer surplus are 40 and 20 respectively.
After-tax:
Qd = 55 - 5p Qs = -60 + 10 P
55 -5 P = -60 + 10 P
115 = 15P
P** = 23/3
Replacing this into the demand
Qd = 55 - 5P
Qd = 55 - 5(23/3)
Qd = 50/3
Thus, after-tax equilibrium quantity = 50/3 and equilibrium pric = 23/3.
Government revenue = (Tax)Q**
Here;
Q** = (P** - P'')
i.e.
P** = after tax equilibrium price
P'' = price suppliers received when Q** is determined in the previous supply curve =20/3
Government Tax revenue = (23/3 - 20/3) × 50/3
Government Tax revenue = 50/3
Dead weight loss = 1/2 × Tax × (Q* - Q**)
Dead weight loss [tex]=\dfrac{1}{2} * (\dfrac{23}{3} -\dfrac{20}{3}) * (20 -\dfrac{250}{3})[/tex]
Dead weight loss = 5/3

Determine the FOH Rate based on direct labor cost.
Answer:
FOH rate based on direct labor cost is 22.8%.
Explanation:
The computation of the factory overhead rate based on the direct labor cost is as follows:
Factory Overhead (FOH) Rate on Direct Labor Cost is
= Total Estimated Factory Overheads ÷ Direct Labor Cost × 100
= [$32,000 + $25,000] ÷ $250,000 × 100
= $57,000 ÷ $250,000 × 100
= 22.8%
Therefore, FOH rate based on direct labor cost is 22.8%.
Beamish Inc., which produces a single product, has provided the following data for its most recent month of operations: Number of units produced 6,400 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 60 Direct labor $ 54 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 4 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 17 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 236,800 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 492,800 There were no beginning or ending inventories. The absorption costing unit product cost was:
Answer:
$155 per unit
Explanation:
Calculation for what The absorption costing unit product cost was:
Using this formula
Absorption costing unit product cost = Direct material + Direct labour + Variable manufacturing overheads + (Fixed manufacturing overheads / Number of units produced)
Let plug in the formula
Absorption costing unit product cost = $60+ $54+ $4 + ( $ 236,800/6,400 )
Absorption costing unit product cost =$60+ $54+ $4 + $37
Absorption costing unit product cost = $155 per unit
Therefore The absorption costing unit product cost was:$155 per unit
Use the following information to work Problems 8 and 9.
Consumer prices drop as falling oil costs push inflation lower Falling oil prices pushed the CPI down 0.1 percent in December 2015. Energy prices fell 2.4 percent and the price of gasoline fell by 3.9 percent.
Source: Los Angeles Times, January 20, 2016
Given the further information that the weight on energy prices in the CPI is 8 percent, by how much would the CPI have changed in December 2015 if energy prices had not changed?
Answer:
Change in CPI = 0.092%
Explanation:
As we know that ,
CPI - Consumer price index
As given,
CPI is fell down by 0.1%
the weight on energy prices in the CPI is 8%
If energy is not changed means energy is constant , then
Change in CPI = 0.1% - (0.1%)(8%)
= 0.001 - (0.001)(0.08)
= 0.001 - (0.00008)
= 0.00092
= 0.092%
⇒Change in CPI = 0.092%

A primary reason for a company to change from traditional costing to activity-based costing (ABC) is that ABC:___________
A. Is a simpler costing method to use.
B. Identifies the nonvalue-added costs of production.
C. Reduces product undercosting or overcosting.
D. Eliminates indirect cost application to products.
Answer:
C. Reduces product undercosting or overcosting.
Explanation:
Cost-volume-profit analysis is also known as the break even analysis, it is an important tool in predicting the volume of activity, the costs to be incurred, the sales to be made, and the profit to be earned is. It is used to determine how changes in differing levels of activities such as costs and volume affect a company's operating income and net income.
A primary reason for a company to change from traditional costing to activity-based costing (ABC) is that ABC reduces product undercosting or overcosting. One of the most widely used activity-based costing technique is the time-driven activity-based costing.
Time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) avails business owners the opportunity of reporting their costs on an ongoing basis (real time) which give details about the various cost of doing business, as well as the time spent on them respectively.
This ultimately implies that, TDABC gives entrepreneurs or employers all the necessary information on the actual cost of manufacturing, service delivery and other tasks associated with the business. Under the TDABC, the relationship between time and cost measurement is used to determine the cost price of goods and services.
Time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) does not assume employees will self-report idle time but it overcomes some important limitations of activity-based costing (ABC) because it can be used by both the employees and their employers.

O A nominal interest rate that is equal to current inflation is desirable,
O A nominal interest rate that is lower than current inflation is desirable
Answer:
O A real interest rate that is higher than current inflation is desirable,
Explanation:
The real rate is the nominal rate of interest after considering the inflation rate. The nominal rate is the interest rate quoted by financial institutions. It shows the percentage of return expected on a deposit or loan. The inflation rate communicates the rate at which prices are increasing in the economy.
The real rate is equivalent to the nominal minus the inflation rate. An ideal situation is when the real rate is higher than the inflation rate. In such a situation, the rate of money growth is higher than the price increases. It means the invested amount will increase in value. At the end of a period, the invested amounts will buy more goods and services than

The quantity of coffee sold rose sharply last month, while the price remained the same. Five people suggest various explanations:
Sean: Demand increased, but supply increased at the same time.
Yvette: Demand increased, but supply was perfectly elastic.
Bob: Demand increased, but supply was perfectly inelastic.
Cho: Supply increased, but demand was perfectly elastic.
Eric: Supply increased, but demand was unit elastic.
Who could possibly be right?
A. Brian.
B. Crystal.
C. Edison.
D. Hilary.
E. Kevin.
Answer:
Sean: Demand increased, but supply increased at the same time
Explanation:
An increase in demand would lead to a rise in the quantity of coffee sold. This would lead to an increase in price and quantity of coffee demanded.
A rise in supply of coffee would lead to an increase in the quantity of coffee and a decrease in price of coffee.
Taking these two effects together, the effect of an increase in demand which led to a rise in price of coffee and the increase in the supply of coffee which lead to a fall in price would cancel each other and price would remain unchanged.

Denver Mart is considering a project with a life of 5 years and an initial cost of $136,000. The discount rate is 11 percent. The firm expects to sell 2,200 units a year with a cash flow per unit of $26. The firm will have the option to abandon this project after 3 years at which time it expects it could sell the project for $48,000. The firm is interested in knowing how the project will perform if the sales forecast for Years 4 and 5 of the project are revised such that there is a probability of 50 percent that the sales will be 1,000 units and a probability of 50 percent they will be 2,500 units a year. What is the net present value of this project given your sales forecasts?
Answer:
Denver Mart
The net present value of this project given the sales forecasts is:
= $98,400.40
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Project's estimated life = 5 years
Initial project cost = $136,000
Discount rate = 11%
Initial estimated sales = 2,200 at $26
Revenue in years 1, 2, and 3 each = 2,200 * $26 = $57,200
Sales forecast of Year 4 and 5 revised to 1,750 units
Probability of 1,000 * 50% = 500
Probability of 2,500 * 50% 1,250
Total sales forecast = 1,750 units
Revenue in years 4 and 5 each = 1,750 * $26 = $45,500
Present value of revenue:
Year 1, 2, and 3 = $57,200 * Annuity factor
= $57,200 * 3.102 = $177,434.40
Year 4, PV = $45,500 * 0.659 = $29,984.50
Year 5, PV = $45,500 * 0.593 = $26,9815
Year 1 to 5 added = $234,400.40
Present value of revenue = $234,400.40
Present value of costs = 136,000.00
Net present value = $98,400.40
Joe must pay liabilities of 1,000 due 6 months from now and another 1,000 due one year from now. There are two available investments which may be purchased in any amount:
6-month bond with face amount of 1,000, 8% nominal annual coupon rate convertible semiannually, and 6 nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually.
1-year bond with face amount of 1,000, 5% nominal annual coupon rate convertible semiannually, and 7% nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually.
What is the annual effective yield rate for the investment in the bonds required to exactly (absolutely) match the liabilities?
a. 6.5%
b. 6.6%
c. 6.7%
d. 6.8%
e. 6.9%
Answer:
d. 6.8%
Explanation:
The one year bond has a coupon rate of 5% per year.
- For 6 months in order to have a payment of 1000 we need a face value of 1000/1.025 = 975.61.
- Coupon payments of 975.61 x .025 = 24.39 at time 0.5 and time 1,
- Payment of the par amount of 975.61 at time 1.
Total cash flow = 1000.
We compute the price of these bonds by discounting their cash flows at their yields:
1-year bond: Price = 24.39 x 1.035^-1 + 1000 x 1.035^-2 = 957.08
6-month bond: Price = 975.61 x 1.03^-1 = 947.19
Total Price = 957.08 + 947.19
Total Price = 1904.27
So, the required yield for the combined cash flows can be found by solving:
1904.27 = 1000v + 1000v^2
EffectIve rate per 6 months = 3.3332%
Annual effective yield basis = 1.03332^2 - 1
Annual effective yield basis = 1.0677502224 - 1
Annual effective yield basis = 0.0677502224
Annual effective yield basis = 6.8%
