Answer:
a. Calculate the price elasticity of demand for Barney’s bagels.
0.4 price inelastic
b. Using the price elasticity of demand for Barney’s bagels, explain whether he should raise or lower the price to generate more revenue.
Barney should increase his prices in order to increase total revenue.
c. A bakery moves in across the street from Barney’s shop. Explain what is likely to happen to the price elasticity of demand for Barney’s bagels.
If a bakery moves in front of Barney's bagel place, then the PED of his product is probably going to increase. The higher the competition, the higher the PED. This means that any change in price will result in a higher proportional change in quantity demanded.
2) I do not agree with that statement. If the PED is price inelastic, then increasing the product's price will increase total revenue, but if the PED is price elastic, any small increase in price will result in a larger decrease in quantity demanded. If the PED is price inelastic, then any change in price will not alter total revenue.
Explanation:
The price elasticity of demand shows us how a 1% change in price will affect the quantity demanded of a product.
PED = % change in Q demanded / % change in price
% change in Q demanded = (275 - 250) / 250 = 10%
% change in price = (0.75 - 1) / 1 = -25%
PED = 0.1 / -0.25 = -0.4 or |0.4| in absolute terms
The PED for Barney's bagels is demand inelastic (PED < 1), therefore, a 1% change in price will result in a smaller proportional change in quantity demanded.
If Barney increases his price to $1.50 instead of lowering it, the quantity demanded will decrease only by:
% change in Q demanded = 0.5 change in price x 0.4 = 0.2 or 20% decrease
his total revenue will increase from $250 per hour to 200 x $1.50 = $300 per hour.
Q1. The price elasticity for the company would be 0.4.
Q2. No, it is not true that a higher price would bring higher revenues from their sales.
Question 1:
a. The price elasticity is derived from the given formula:
[tex]\frac{percentagechange in Qd}{percentage change in P}[/tex]
Hence, the percentage change in quantity demanded would be:
[tex]\frac{275 - 250}{250} \\=0.1[/tex]
Now, the percentage change in price would be:
[tex]\frac{0.75 - 1}{1} \\=-25[/tex]
Finally, price elasticity would be:
[tex]\frac{0.1}{-25} \\=-0.4[/tex]
b. Therefore, the business may increase its product's price to get increased revenue as the demand elasticity is 0.4, which means less change in quantity demanded would be seen when prices tend to rise by 1%
c. If the business plan to move across the price elasticity would be seen as rising because of experiencing more competition in the market. Thus, when prices increase by even 1% then the quantity demanded may be seen as changing at a higher rate.
Question 2:
The business revenue is dependent on the price and sales of the product. Further, the elasticity of demand is sales essential for deciding the quantity of demand by the customers. Thus, when demand is highly elastic then increasing the product price would harm the final revenue of the business.

As chief financial officer, it is your responsibility to weigh financial pros and cons of the many investment opportunities developed by your company's research and development division. You are currently evaluating two competing 15-year projects that differ in several ways. Relative to your firm's current EPS, the first project is expected to generate above-average EPS during the first 5 years, average EPS during the second 5 years, and then below-average EPS in the last 5 years. The second project is expected to generate below-average EPS during the first 5 years, average EPS in the second 5 years, and then well-above-average EPS in the last 5 years. Is the choice obvious if you expect that the second investment will result in a larger overall earnings increase?
Given the goal of the firm, what issues will you consider before making a final decision?
Is the choice obvious if you expect that the second investment will result in a larger overall earnings increase?
Answer:
a) The choice is not obvious even if I expect that the second investment will result in a larger overall earnings increase. The volume and value of the cash flows are not disclosed in this instance. Earnings are not the same as cash flows.
b) The timing, volume, and cash flows are very important issues here. Because of the time value of money, the second choice with its larger overall earnings may not necessarily be the better choice. This is because its cash flows are delayed relative to the first choice.
c) However, since the consideration centers around the EPS (Earnings Per Share), the company's goal will be to grow the EPS. This goal favors the second choice that bears more increasing earnings year-on-year than the first choice.
Explanation:
a) Data and Checks:
1st Project:
During first 5 years, above-average EPS
During second 5 years, average EPS
During last 5 years, below-average EPS
2nd Project:
During first 5 years, below-average EPS
During second 5 years, average EPS
During last 5 years, well-above average EPS

Harding Company is in the process of purchasing several large pieces of equipment from Danning Machine Corporation. Several financing alternatives have been offered by Danning: (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
1. Pay $1,210,000 in cash immediately.
2. Pay $471,000 immediately and the remainder in 10 annual installments of $95,000, with the first installment due in one year.
3. Make 10 annual installments of $157,000 with the first payment due immediately.
4. Make one lump-sum payment of $1,740,000 five years from date of purchase.
Required:
Determine the best alternative for Harding, assuming that Harding can borrow funds at a 7% interest rate. (Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)
Answer:
The best alternative is alternative 2.
PV = $1138240.246 rounded off to $1138240
Explanation:
To determine the best alternative, we need to find the present value of each alternative and the alternative with the lowest present value will be the best one.
To calculate the present value of a single sum, we will use the normal present value formula,
PV = Future Value / (1+r)^t
Where,
r is the discount ratet is the time in periodsTo calculate the present value of alternative with equal payments over a period of time with same intervals, we will use the present value of annuity formula which is attached.
The present value of alternative 1 is already known.
The present value of alternative 2 will be calculated using the present value of annuity ordinary formula as the payments of 95000 are made at the end of each period.
PV = 471000 + 95000 * [( 1 - (1+0.07)^-10) / 0.07]
PV = $1138240.246 rounded off to $1138240
The present value of alternative 3 will be calculated using the present value of annuity due formula as the payments of 157000 are made at the start of each period.
PV = 157000 * [( 1 - (1+0.07)^-10) / 0.07] * (1+0.07)
PV = $1179891.463 rounded off to $1179891
The present value of alternative 4 will be calculated using the present value
of the sum formula,
PV = 1740000 / (1+0.07)^5
PV = $1240595.952 rounded off to $1240596
The best alternative is alternative 2.

You’re a bright, female investment analyst about to give a major presentation to a group of bankers supporting a corporate acquisition. After walking in and meeting the bankers before you give the presentation, you’re asked by your boss to "be a dear and serve them coffee." Imagine the insult and awkwardness of such a situation—what do you do? Do you carry through with the task, sacrificing your dignity or doing something wrong because you can’t afford to lose the job? Or do you speak up?
Explanation:
In this case, the ideal is to reject a task that is not mandatory in your contract. The boss's attitude in this situation was somewhat sexist, as it reduced the professional skills of a female investment analyst to having to be liked and serving coffee to bankers, since the professional was there to make a great professional presentation.
These unprofessional attitudes can be combated with an assertive attitude, without the professional feeling cornered by the possibility of suffering reprisals, but it is by maintaining an ethical, professional attitude and imposing respect, that it is possible for such unethical acts to be combated and not accepted any more. formal work environment.

At the beginning of the most recent year, the company estimated its manufacturing overhead cost at $179,450. Estimated direct labor cost was $444,000 for 18,500 hours. Actual costs for the most recent month are summarized here: Item Description Total Cost Direct labor (1,850 hours) $ 44,401 Indirect costs Indirect labor 2,470 Indirect materials 3,420 Factory rent 3,350 Factory supervision 4,780 Factory depreciation 5,690 Factory janitorial work 1,290 Factory insurance 1,750 General and administrative salaries 4,280 Selling expenses 5,430 Required: 1. Calculate the predetermined overhead rate. 2. Calculate the amount of applied manufacturing overhead. 3. Calculate actual manufacturing overhead costs. 4. Compute over- or underapplied overhead.
Answer:
See answers below
Explanation:
1 The predetermined overhead rate
= Estimated manufacturing overhead / Estimated direct labor hour
= $179,450 / 18,500 hours
= $9.7 per direct labor hour
2. The applied manufacturing overhead
= Actual direct labor hours × predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour
= 1,850 hours × $9.7
= $17,945
3 Actual manufacturing overhead costs
Indirect labor 2,470 + Indirect materials 3,420 + Factory rent 3,350 + Factory supervision 4,780 + Factory depreciation 5,690 + Factory janitorial work + 1,290 + Factory insurance 1,750
Actual manufacturing overhead costs
= $21,000
4. Over or under applied overhead
= $21,000 - $17,945
= $3,055
Under applied overhead is $3,055

Cash flows during the first year of operations for the Harman-Kardon Consulting Company were as follows: Cash collected from customers, $340,000; Cash paid for rent, $40,000; Cash paid to employees for services rendered during the year, $120,000; Cash paid for utilities, $50,000. In addition, you determine that customers owed the company $60,000 at the end of the year and no bad debts were anticipated. Also, the company owed the gas and electric company $2,000 at year-end, and the rent payment was for a two-year period. Calculate accrual net income for the year.
Answer:
$208,000
Explanation:
Net income= Revenue -expenses
The first step is to calculate the total revenue
Total revenue= credit sales+cash collected from customers
= $60,000 + $340,000
= $400,000
The total expenses can be calculated as follows
= Rent expense + salaries expense + utilities expense
= (40,000/2)+$120,000 + ($50,000 + $2,000)
= $20,000 + $120,000 + $52,000
= $192,000
Therefore the accrual net income for the year can be calculated as follows
= $400,000 - $192,000
= $208,000
Hence the accural net income for the year is $208,000

The state highway department has condemned Mr. Beamer's farm to build a new highway by-pass. They have already paid $160,000 for the property and have agreed to let Mr. Beamer continue to live in the house until construction on the by-pass actually begins. Due to state budget problems, all highway construction jobs in the region have been suspended indefinitely. Today Mr. Beamer deposits the entire amount paid for the property in an account at an interest rate of 4%, compounded monthly (12 times per year). He plans to use the entire balance in the account to invest in a new home at the time that construction on the by-pass actually begins. How much will Mr. Beamer have to invest in a new home if construction begins 4 years from today
Answer:
The invested amount is $187,412.68
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that have to invested is shown below:
Amount = Paid amount × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years
where,
The Paid amount is $160,000
rate of interest is 4% ÷ 12 = 0.33%
And, the number of years is = 4 × 12 = 48
Now the invested amount is
= $160,000 × (1 + 0.33%)^48
= $187,412.68
Hence, the invested amount is $187,412.68
Suppose your employer offers you a choice between a bonus and shares of the company's stock. Whichever one you choose will be awarded today. The stock is currently trading at per share. a. If you receive the stock bonus and you are free to trade it, which form of the bonus should you choose? What is its value? b. If you receive the stock bonus and you are required to hold it for at least one year, what can you say about the value of the stock bonus now? What will your decision depend on?
Answer:
the question in incomplete:
Suppose your employer offers you a choice between a $5000 bonus and 100 shares of the company stock. Whichever one you choose will be awarded today. The stock is currently trading for $63 per share.
a. If you receive the stock bonus and you are free to trade it, which form of the bonus should you choose? What is its value?
the value of the stock bonus is $6,300 while the cash bonus is only worth $5,000, therefore, I would choose the stock bonus.b. If you receive the stock bonus and you are required to hold it for at least one year, what can you say about the value of the stock bonus now? What will your decision depend on?
if you could sell the stocks today, then the stock bonus would be worth $6,300 but in one year, who knows. Since you work at the company you will be in a very good position to determine if the stock is priced correctly and how the price might change in 1 year. On the other hand, if you really need the money now, and you are not so sure about the future stock price, then the cash bonus might be better. Since the information is limited, I cannot tell which scenario would be best, because it depends on several variables.The artisans at Jewelry Junction in Phoenix are preparing to make gold jewelry during a 2-month period for the Christmas season. They can make bracelets, necklaces, and pins. Each bracelet requires 6.3 ounces of gold and 17 hours of labor, each necklace requires 3.9 ounces of gold and 10 hours of labor, and each pin requires 3.1 ounces of gold and 7 hours of labor. Jewelry Junction has available 125 ounces of gold and 320 hours of labor. A bracelet sells for $1,650, a necklace for $850, and a pin for $790.

On April 1, the company retained an attorney for a flat monthly fee of $3,500. Payment for April legal services was made by the company on May 12. As of April 30, $1,932 of interest expense has accrued on a note payable. The full interest payment of $5,797 on the note is due on May 20. Total weekly salaries expense for all employees is $14,000. This amount is paid at the end of the day on Friday of each five-day workweek. April 30 falls on a Tuesday, which means that the employees had worked two days since the last payday. The next payday is May 3.

Explanation:
Adjusting entries are made at the end of an accounting period to record expenses and revenue that have accrued but are not yet paid or received. They are also used to account for expenses and revenue made in advance. The purpose is to ensure that the accounting records reflect the period's actual expenses and revenue incurred and earned.
Suppose your firm receives a million order on the last day of the year. You fill the order with million worth of inventory. The customer picks up the entire order the same day and pays million up front in cash; you also issue a bill for the customer to pay the remaining balance of million within 40 days. Suppose your firm's tax rate is (i.e., ignore taxes). Determine the consequences of this transaction for each of the following:
a. Revenues
b. Earnings
c. Receivables
Answer:
a. Revenues - These will increase by $5 million to represent the entire value of the order.
b. Earnings. - Increase by $3 million
Earnings in this case are revenue less the cost of inventory which will be;
= 5 - 2
= $3 million
c. Receivables - Increase by $4 million
The customer paid $1 million upfront which means that they still owe $4 million out of the $5 million. This will go to the receivables account to show that the customer owes the business.

Salaries payable $ 6,500 Retained earnings $ 55,000 Buildings 63,000 Notes payable (due in 9 years) 40,000 Prepaid rent 7,500 Office supplies 3,000 Merchandise inventory 15,000 Land 32,000 Accounts payable 15,000 Accumulated depreciation-Building 6,000 Prepaid insurance 4,000 Mortgages payable (due in 5 years) 22,000 Accounts receivable 9,000 Cash 26,000 Common stock 15,000 Required: Prepare a classified balance sheet. (Amounts to be deducted should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Answer is given below
Explanation:
given data
Salaries payable = $6,500
Retained earnings = $55,000
Buildings = 63,000
Payable = 40,000
Prepaid rent = 7,500
Office supplies = 3,000
Merchandise inventory = 15,000
Land = 32,000
Accounts payable = 15,000
Accumulated depreciation Building = 6,000
Prepaid insurance = 4,000
Mortgages payable = 22,000
Accounts receivable = 9,000
Cash = 26,000
Common stock = 15,000

Current Assets
Cash $26,000
Accounts Receivable $9,000
Merchandise inventory $15,800
Office Supplies $3,000
Prepaid Rent $7,500
Prepaid Insurance $4,000
Total Current Assets: $65,300
and
Property, Plant and Equipment
Buildings $63,000
Land $32,000
Accumulated Depreciation 6,000
Total PP&E = $101,000

Accounts payable $15,000
Total Current Liabilities = $21,500
and
Long-Term Liabilities
Notes Payable $40,000

YIELD CURVE FOR ZERO COUPON BONDS RATED AA Maturity YTM Maturity YTM Maturity YTM 1 year 8.00 % 7 year 9.15 % 13 year 10.45 % 2 year 8.11 % 8 year 9.25 % 14 year 10.65 % 3 year 8.20 % 9 year 9.35 % 15 year 10.75 % 4 year 8.50 % 10 year 9.47 % 16 year 10.95 % 5 year 8.75 % 11 year 9.52 % 17 year 11.00 % 6 year 8.85 % 12 year 9.77 % 18 year 11.25 % Assume that there are no liquidity premiums. To the nearest basis point, what is the expected interest rate on a four-year maturity AA zero coupon bond purchased six years from today
Answer:
10.41%
Explanation:
Calculation for the expected interest rate on a four-year maturity
Expected interest rate=[(1+.0947)^10 ÷1+.0885)^6 ]^1=4-1
Expected interest rate=[(1.0947)^10÷(1.0885)^6 ]^1/4-1
Expected interest rate=[(2.47÷1.66)^1/4]-1
Expected interest rate=(1.486^1/4)-1
Expected interest rate=1.1041-1
Expected interest rate=0.1041*100%
Expected interest rate=10.41%
Therefore the expected interest rate on a four-year maturity AA zero coupon bond purchased six years from today will be 10.41%

Custom Homebuilders (CH) designs and constructs high-end homes on large lots owned by customers. CH has developed several formulas, which it uses to quote jobs. These include costs for materials, labor, and other costs. These estimates are also dependent on the region of the country a particular customer lives. The following are the cost estimates for one region in the Midwest. Administrative costs $ 20,000 Building costs – per square foot (basic) $ 90 Building costs – per square foot (moderate) $ 150 Building costs – per square foot (luxury) $ 225 Appliances (basic) $ 15,000 Appliances (moderate) $ 25,000 Appliances (luxury) $ 45,000 Utilities costs (if required) $ 40,000 Required: A customer has expressed interest in having CH build a moderate, 3,000 square-foot home on a vacant lot, which does not have utilities. Based on the engineering estimates above, what will such a house cost to build?
Answer:
$495,000
Explanation:
Based on the engineering estimates above cost to build such a house can be calculated by just adding the cost incurring in building the house as a moderate house.
The cost of a moderate 3000 square foot house
Administrative Cost = 20,000
Building Cost (150x3000) = 450,000
Appliances = 25,000
Utilities Cost = NIL
Total Cost = 495,000
Sarjit Systems sold software to a customer for $176,000. As part of the contract, Sarjit promises to provide "free" technical support over the next six months. Sarjit sells the same software without technical support for $153,000 and a stand-alone six-month technical support contract for $27,000, so these products would sell for $180,000 if sold separately. Prepare Sarjit’s journal entry to record the sale of the software. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
DR Cash ..............................................................$ 176,000
CR Sales Revenue................................................................$149,600
CR Deferred Revenue..........................................................$26,400
Explanation:
Revenue should only be recorded when earned and as the 6 month technical support can be sold separately, it is revenue that has not be earned yet as the 6 months have not elapsed. This will therefore need to be recorded as Deferred revenue.
Sold alone, the revenue is more than when they are sold together so use the standalone price to find out the revenue when sold together by proportionality.
Sales revenue = 153,000/180,000 * 176,000
= $149,600
Deferred Revenue = 27,000/180,000 * 176,000
= $26,400
Activity-Based And Department Rate Product Costing and Product Cost Distortions Black and Blue Sports Inc. manufactures two products: snowboards and skis. The factory overhead incurred is as follows: Indirect labor $507,000 Cutting Department 156,000 Finishing Department 192,000 Total $855,000 The activity base associated with the two production departments is direct labor hours. The indirect labor can be assigned to two different activities as follows: Activity Budgeted Activity Cost Activity Base Production control $237,000 Number of production runs Materials handling 270,000 Number of moves Total $507,000 The activity-base usage quantities and units produced for the two products follow: Number of Production Runs Number of Moves Direct Labor Hours-Cutting Direct Labor Hours-Finishing Units Produced Snowboards 430 5,000 4,000 2,000 6,000 Skis 70 2,500 2,000 4,000 6,000 Total 500 7,500 6,000 6,000 12,000 Required: 1. Determine the factory overhead rates under the multiple production department rate method. Assume that indirect labor is associated with the production departments, so that the total factory overhead is $315,000 and $540,000 for the Cutting and Finishing departments, respectively. Round per unit amounts to the nearest whole cent.
Answer:
Cutting department = $52.50
Finishing department = $90.00
Explanation:
The computation of factory overhead rates under the multiple production department rate method is shown below:-
For cutting department
= Overhead cost ÷ Direct labor hour
= $315,000 ÷ 6,000
= $52.50
For Finishing department
= Overhead cost ÷ Direct labor hour
= $540,000 ÷ 6,000
= $90.00
Hence, the above are the answers and the same is to be considered
