Answer:
c. market conditions may improve.
Explanation:
Investing in the right time and at the right place is very important. It can help to make money or profit or to loose money.
When a company permanently rejects the opportunity to invest in a project to day may not be a good or a wise decision mainly because the company is foregoing all the possible future options. And so the opportunity to postpone an investment by a company in a project until another time in the future has value as in the future the market condition may improve. And it will be better to invest at that time in the project.

You note the following yield curve in The Wall Street Journal. According to the unbiased expectations theory, what is the one-year forward rate for the period beginning two years from today, 3f1? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16)) Maturity Yield One day 1.58 % One year 2.10 Two years 2.34 Three years 2.45
Answer:
2.58%
Explanation:
Mathematically, the relationship between the different interest rates using the equation is shown below:
(1+S2)^2=(1+S1)^1*(1+2y1y)
The spot rate in year 2 is the same as the spot rate in year 1 multiplied by the 1-year forward rate beginning in year 2.
S2=2-year rate =2.34%
S1=1-year rate =2.10%
2y1y=one-year interest rate 2 years from now=the unknown
(1+2.34%)^2=(1+2.10%)^1*(1+2y1y)
(1+2y1y)=(1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1
2y1y)=(((1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1)-1
2y1y=1.025805642-1
2y1y= 2.58%
The formula shows that borrowing or lending for 2 years at 2.34% is the same as borrowing or lending at 2.10% in year and 2.58% forward rate in year 2

Damien Carranza is a nonexempt employee of Verdant Enterprises where he is a salesperson, earning a base annual salary of $31,750 plus a 3 percent commission on all sales during the pay period. During the weekly pay period ending August 25, Damien closed $26,400 in sales and worked 4 hours overtime.
Required:
What is his gross pay for the period? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.)
Gross pay
Answer:
Damien Carranza
Gross pay = $1.494.17
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Base annual salary = $31,750
Weekly base hours = 40 hours
We assume that there are 52 weeks in a calendar year.
Hourly rate = $31,750/(52 weeks * 40 hours) = $15.26442 per hour
Overtime worked = 4 hours
Overtime rate = 4 * $31,750/2,080 * 1.5 = $91.59
Weekly base pay = 40 * $31,750/2,080 = 610.58
Commission = $26,400 * 3% = 792.00
Gross pay = $1,494.17
b) Since Damien is a non-exempt employee, he is entitled to earn the federal minimum wage and qualify for overtime pay. This is calculated as one-and-a-half times his hourly rate, for every hour worked above and beyond the standard 40-hour workweek. The gross pay is Damien's total earnings throughout the week before deductions for mandated taxes, health insurance, retirement, and Medicare contributions are made.

How does international trade affect the lives of U.S. citizens?
Answer:
The short answer is - A lot!
Explanation:
According to the U.S Chamber of Commerce, the population of the U.S. is just 5% of that of the rest of the world and the only way to raise real wages within the U.S. is to reach out to that other 95% with its own products and services.
To put that in perspective, there are over forty million jobs in the U.S. all of which depend directly or indirectly on trade. In 2019 alone, the U.S. recorded approximately USD 1.4 trillion in exports of its own manufactured goods. According to the U.S. Department for Commerce, in the same year, the above-mentioned export activity accounted for at least 6 million jobs within the manufacturing sector in the U.S. and this is just U.S. manufacturing versus international trade.
Taking a look at Services exported from the U.S. in 2019, we see that services worth about USD 850 billion were exported. This makes America the largest exporter of services to the world.
Let's imagine for a moment, that that didn't exist?
We have looked at exports thus far. However, there is also a flip side of the coin called international trade and that is imports. No country is 100% self-sufficient to the point that they have a comparative advantage in every area hence the need for international trade.
The U.S. economy has a Free Trade Agreement with over 20 countries. Statistics also show that more than 60% of all raw material inputs are imported.
We can thus conclude that International Trade is key to attaining and sustaining the American Dream.

A loan of $12,000 is to be repaid within one year with level monthly payments, due at the beginning of each month. The 12 payments equal $1,000 each. A finance charge of $632 is also due with the first payment. Which of the following is closest to the effective annual interest rate on the loan?
a. 12.7%
b. 12.9%
c.13.1%
d. 13.3%
e. 13.5%
Solution :
It is given : loan amount = $12,000
Time to repay = 12 months
Finance charge = $ 632
AT the interest rate, outflow = inflow
The present value of the loan amounts = loan amount
[tex]$1000+632+[1000 \times (PVAF (r ,11))]=12000$[/tex]
[tex]$1000 \times PVAF(r,11)=12000-1632$[/tex]
[tex]$PVAF(r,11)=\frac{10368}{1000}$[/tex]
[tex]$PVAF(r,11)=10.368$[/tex]
Now using the annuity table we get
PVAF(1%, 11)=10.9676
This is equal to 10.368 (approximately)
∴ [tex]$r=1$[/tex] % per month of compounded monthly
So the annual interest rate is :
[tex]$=[(1+0.01)^{12}]-1$[/tex]
[tex]$r=[(1.01)^{12}]-1$[/tex]
[tex]$r = 12.68$[/tex] %
= 12.70 %
Hence the correct option is (a).
[tex]\text{It is given : loan amount} = $12,000\\\text{Time to repay} = 12 months\text{Finance charge} = $ 632\\\text{At the interest rate, outflow = inflow}\\\text{The present value of the loan amounts = loan amount}[/tex]
[tex]1000 + 632 + [ (P.V (r.11))] = 12,000\\\\1000 \text { x } P.V (r,11) = 12,000 - 1,632\\\\P.V (r.11) = \frac{10,368}{1000}\\\\P.V (r,11) = 10.368[/tex]
[tex]\text{Now using the annuity table we get} \\P.V (0.01, 11) =10.9676\\\text{This is equal to 10.368 (approximately)}[/tex]
[tex]r = 0.01 \text{ per month}\\\text{ Annual Interest rate}:\\r= [(1+0.01}^{12}] - 1\\r= [(1.01}^{12}] - 1\\r= 12.68\\[/tex]
Therefore, the closest option among the following choices is an option (a), i.e., 12.7%

Markson Company had the following results of operations for the past year:
Sales (8,000 units at $20.80) $166,400
Variable manufacturing costs $89,200
Fixed manufacturing costs 15,800
Variable administrative expenses 15,200
Fixed selling and administrative expenses 20,800 (141,000 )
Operating income $25,400
A foreign company whose sales will not affect Markson's market offers to buy 2,000 units at $15.20 per unit. In addition to variable manufacturing costs, selling these units would increase fixed overhead by $1,680 for the purchase of special tools. Markson's annual productive capacity is 12,000 units. If Markson accepts this additional business, its profits will:_______
Solution :
The cost of variable manufacturing is given as = $ 89,200
Number of units = 8000 units.
Therefore, the cost of variable manufacturing per unit [tex]$=\frac{89,200}{8000}$[/tex]
= $ 11.15
Therefore for 2000 units = 2000 x 11.15
= $ 22,300
Amounts in $
Sales 30,400 (2000 x 15.20)
Less : variable manufacturing cost 22,300
Less : fixed manufacturing cost 1,680
Less : variable selling and administrative cost 3800
Profit 2620
Therefore the profit is increased by $ 2620.

a. An increase in the price of oranges, the change in equilibrium quantity is uncertain.
b. A decrease in the price of oranges, the change in equilibrium quantity is uncertain.
c. An increase in the equilibrium quantity of oranges, the change in equilibrium price is uncertain.
d. A decrease in the equilibrium quantity of oranges, the change in equilibrium price is uncertain.
Answer:
The net effects on the equilibrium price and quantity of oranges are:
c. An increase in the equilibrium quantity of oranges, the change in equilibrium price is uncertain.
Explanation:
The promotion of the eating of oranges by Scientists will increase the demand for oranges. This increased demand will shift the equilibrium quantity of oranges demanded by consumers. With the use of the new fertilizer by farmers to increase the production of oranges, the equilibrium quantity of supply will shift with demand. However, it is uncertain, from the data provided, if the equilibrium price will upward or downward. This will depend on other market forces, e.g. the market competitiveness.

Calculate depreciation expense using the activity-based method for 2018 and 2019, assuming a December 31 year-end.
Answer:
The depreciation expenses will be "950 and 3610". A further explanation is given below.
Explanation:
The given values are:
Cost,
= $21,500
Salvage value,
= $2,500
Asset's total life,
= $100,000
Now,
The Depreciation rate will be:
= [tex]\frac{ (Cost - Salvage \ value) }{Asset's \ total \ life}[/tex]
On putting the values, we get
= [tex]\frac{ (21500 - 2500) }{100000}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{19000}{100000}[/tex]
= [tex]0.19[/tex]
So,
For the year 2021, the depreciation expense will be:
= [tex]Depreciation \ Rate\times Actual \ Mileage[/tex]
= [tex]0.19\times 5000[/tex]
= [tex]950[/tex]
For the year 2022, the depreciation expense will be:
= [tex]Depreciation \ Rate\times Actual \ Mileage[/tex]
= [tex]0.19\times 19000[/tex]
= [tex]3610[/tex]

Answer:
Classification of costs as period cost or product cost
a1. Property taxes is 30% period cost
a2. Property taxes is 70% product cost (MOH)
b. Wages and benefits to factory workers = product cost (DL)
c. Depreciation on production equipment = product cost (MOH)
d. Salaries to quality control inspectors in the plant = product cost (MOH)
e. Repairs and maintenance on factory equipment = product cost (MOH)
f. Standard packaging materials = product cost (MOH)
g. Lease payment on administrative headquarters = period cost
h. Telecommunication costs for customer service = period cost
Explanation:
Period costs are fixed costs incurred that relate more to the period in which they are incurred than to the product. They are not directly related to the product and are treated as expenses. Product costs, on the other hand, are costs incurred in producing the product. They may be in the form of direct materials, direct labor, or manufacturing overhead costs.
Rihanna Company is considering purchasing new equipment for $450,000. It is expected that the equipment will produce net annual cash flows of $60,000 over its 10-year useful life. Annual depreciation will be $45,000. Compute the cash payback period
Answer:
7.5 years
Explanation:
Payback is the period a project takes to recover its initial capital outflow.
The formula for calculating the payback period = Initial investments divide by net cash flow per period.
Payback Period = Initial Investments/ Net Cash Flow per Period
Payback period = $450,000/ $60,000
Payback period =7.5 years

The Blacksburg Company is separating materials handling cost into fixed and variable components. The following data have been collected over a five-month period ( all amounts are in thousands): Direct Cost of Materials Month Labor Hours Materials Issued Handling Costs 1 4 $7 $1.60 2 5 5 1.70 3 6 4 1.80 4 7 8 1.90 5 8 6 2.00
Required:
(1) Determine the fixed and variable materials handling using direct labor hours as the measure of volume.
(2) Determine the fixed and variable materials handling cost by the method of least squares using direct labor hours as the measure of volume.
Answer:
1. Variable cost = $0.10, fixed cost = $1.2
2. Variable cost = $0.10, fixed cost = $1.2
Explanation:
This question simply wants us to solve for variable cost and fixed cost using two different methods
1. Variable cost = (y2 - y1)/x1-x2
Y2 is the cost of at the highest level of activity = $2
Y1 is cost at lowest level of activity = $1.6
X2 = highest level of direct labor = 8
X1 = lowest level of labor = 4
V = variable cost = 2-1.6/8-4
= 0.4/4 = $0.1
Fixed cost = y2 - V*x2
= 2 - (0.1*8)
= $1.2
So the fixed cost here is $1.2 and variable cost is $0.10
2.
This requires us to solve using the least squares method. We first create a table as shown in the attachment and then solve for variable cost and fixed cost.
n = 5, xy = 55, x = 30, y = 9
We solve for a and b
b = 5x55-30x9/5x190-30²
= 275-270/950-900
= 5/50
= $0.10 this is the variable cost
a = 9-0.1(30)/5
= 6/5
= $1.2 this is the fixed cost
So using both methods in 1 and 2
Fixed cost = $1.2, variable cost = $0.10
