Answer:
1) Colombians pay $ 12,696,000 per car.
2) Consumers now pay the price of $10,948,000 per car.
Explanation:
1) Given that Colombia imports cars from Australia, and the free market price is $ 9,200.00 per car, if the tariff on imports in Colombia is initially 38%, Colombians pay $ 12,696,000 per car.
This arises from the following calculation:
9,200.00 x 1.38 = X
12.696.00 = X
2) Since that as a result of the Uruguay Round, Colombia reduces its import tariffs to 19%. Assuming the price of cars is still $ 9,200.00 per car, consumers now pay the price of $10,948,000 per car.
This arises from the following calculation:
9,200,000 x 1.19 = X
10,948,000 = X

Explanation:
At the beginning of the recent period, there were 1,230 units of product in a department, 35% completed. These units were finished and an additional 6,100 units were started and completed during the period. 1,240 units were still in process at the end of the period, 25% completed. Using the weighted average method, the equivalent units produced by the department were:
Answer:
7,640 units
Explanation:
Calculation for what the equivalent units produced by the department were Using the weighted average method
First step is to calculate the units Completed & transferred out
Completed & transferred out =6,100+1,230
Completed & transferred out=7,330
Second step is to calculate the EGIP
EGIP= (1,240*25%)
EGIP=310
Now let calculate the equivalent units produced by the department
Equivalent units produced=7,330+310
Equivalent units produced=7,640 units
Therefore Using the weighted average method, the equivalent units produced by the department were:7,640 units
Automation Inc. is a company that provides wireless telecommunications network in several cities in the Midwest region, and the company plans to know more about its customers. The company found that one of his customers has a short customer history of 35, an above-average purchase amount of 75, a low repurchase desirability of 25, a weak product preference of 20, and the customer does not recommend the company's services to potential customers.

35 * 75 = 2,625
Finally, we can see that the loyalty index of the customer in question is 2,625
Faye, Gary, and Heidi each have a one-third interest in the capital and profits of the FGH Partnership. Each partner had a capital account of $50,000 at the beginning of the tax year. The partnership profits for the tax year were $270,000. Changes in their capital accounts during the tax year were as follows:
Faye Gary Heidi Total
Beginning balance $50,000 $50,000 $50,000 $150,000
Withdrawals (20,000) (35,000) (10,000) (65,000)
Additional contributions -0- -0- 5,000 5,000

Ending balance $120,000 $105,000 $135,000 $360,000
In arriving at the $270,000 of partnership profits, the partnership deducted $2,400 ($800 for each partner) in premiums paid for group term life insurance on the partners. Faye and Gary are 39 years old, and Heidi is 35 years old. Other employees are also eligible for group term life insurance equal to their annual salary. These premiums of $10,000 have been deducted in calculating the partnership profits of $270,000.

Community Property (LO. 3)
Liz and Doug were divorced on December 31 of the current year after 10 years of marriage. Their current year's income received before the divorce was as follows:
Doug's salary $41,000
Liz's salary $55,000
Rent on apartments purchased by Liz 15 years ago $8,000
Dividends on stock Doug inherited from his mother 4 years ago $1,900
Interest on a savings account in Liz's name funded with her salary $2,400
Allocate the income to Liz and Doug assuming that they live in:
a. California.
Doug: $ Liz: $
b. Texas.
Doug: $ Liz: $
Answer:
a. Each partner's gross income from the partnership for the tax year is $_________
$90,800
b. Community Property:
a. California.
Doug: $51,100 Liz: $57,200
b. Texas.
Doug: $54,150 Liz: $54,150
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Partnership profits = $270,000
Add Insurance premium 2,400
Total profits shareable $272,400
Share of each partner = $90,800 ($272,400/3)
(Or Share of profit $90,000 + Premium $800 = $90,800)
b) Community Property:
Doug's salary $41,000
Liz's salary $55,000
Rent on apartments purchased by Liz 15 years ago $8,000
Dividends on stock Doug inherited from his mother 4 years ago $1,900
Interest on a savings account in Liz's name funded with her salary $2,400
Total community property = $108,300
Less Separate Property:
Less Liz's rent $8,000
Less Doug's dividends $1,900 9,900
Remaining community property = $98,400
This is shared equally ($98,400/2) = $49,200
a. California.
Doug: $51,100 ($49,200 + $1,900) Liz: $57,200 ($49,200 + $8,000)
b. Texas.
Doug: $54,150 Liz: $54,150 ($108,300/2)
c) Texas and California are two of the nine states that have community property jurisdiction. The implication is that any property acquired by a couple during their marriage is equally owned by both spouses. In California, the spouse also owns a one-half interest in your regular income, provided it does not come from your separate property. But in Texas, income from separate property is included in the community property and is equally shared, though the separate property itself remains separate and is not shareable.

Bunker makes two types of briefcase, fabric and leather. The company is currently using a traditional costing system with labor hours as the cost driver but is considering switching to an activity-based costing system. In preparation for the possible switch, Bunker has identified two activity cost pools: materials handling and setup. Pertinent data follow: Fabric Case Leather Case Number of labor hours 16,000 8,000 Number of material moves 620 930 Number of setups 40 120 Total estimated overhead costs are $238,800, of which $186,000 is assigned to the materials handling cost pool and $52,800 is assigned to the setup cost pool. Required: 1. Calculate the overhead assigned to the leather case line using the traditional costing system based on direct labor hours. 2. Calculate the overhead assigned to the leather case line using ABC. 3. Was the leather case over- or undercosted by the traditional cost system compared to ABC
Answer:
1. 79,600
2. 151,200
3.The leather case line is undercosted by the traditional cost system compared to ABC
Explanation:
1. Calculation for the overhead assigned to the leather case line using the traditional costing system based on direct labor hours
Overhead Assigned to leather case =[$238,800/(16,000+8,000)*8,000]
Overhead Assigned to leather case =[$238,800/24,000*8,000]
Overhead Assigned to leather case =79,600
Therefore the overhead assigned to the leather case line using the traditional costing system based on direct labor hours will be 79,600
2. Calculation for the overhead assigned to the leather case line using ABC
First step is to calculate the Material handling rate
Material handling rate = 186,000/(620+ 930)
Material handling rate = 186,000/1,550
Material handling rate = 120 per move
Second step is to calculate the Setup cost
Setup cost =$52,800/(40+ 120)
Setup cost =$52,800/160
Setup cost = 330 per setup
Now let calculate overhead assigned to the leather case line using ABC
Overhead assigned to leather case ABC = (930*120)+(120*330)
Overhead assigned to leather case ABC =111,600+39,600
Overhead assigned to leather case ABC = 151,200
Therefore the overhead assigned to the leather case line using ABC will be 151,200
3. Based on the above calculation the leather case line is undercosted by the traditional cost system compared to ABC

Joan Demers launched a professional services firm on March 1. The firm will prepare financial statements at each month-end. In March (its first month), Demers executed the following transactions. Demers (owner) invested in the company, $150,000 cash and $30,000 in property and equipment. The company issued common stock to Demers. The company paid $5,000 cash for rent of office furnishings and facilities for March. The company performed services for clients and immediately received $10,000 cash earned. The company performed services for clients and sent a bill for $20,000 with payment due within 60 days. The company compensated an office employee with $6,000 cash as salary for March. The company received $12,000 cash as partial payment on the amount owed from clients in the 4th transaction above. The company paid $2,000 cash in dividends to Demers (owner). What is the net operating income for the month of March
Answer:
the net operating income is $19,000
Explanation:
The computation of the net operating income is shown below:
As we know that
Net Operating Income = Revenue - Costs
= $10,000 + $20,000 - $5,000 -$6,000
= $19,000
Hence, the net operating income is $19,000
we simply deduct the cost from the revenue so that the net operating income could come

Investing cash activities relate to transactions that have to do with the capital expenditure of the company such as fixed assets and securities in other companies.
Financing relates to those transactions relating to how the business finances its operations which includes equity and capital.
Anything that would require cash to be spent is reducing the balance and anytime cash comes in, the balance is increased.
Decrease in current asset is an increase because it means less cash was spent to acquire the asset.
Decrease in current liability is a decrease because it means that the company paid cash to reduce the liability.
Amortization and Depreciation add to the Operating balance because they are none cash items that were removed from Net income.

Preferred dividend per share = $300,000/10,000 = $30 per share
Year 2:
Preferred dividend per share = $100,000/10,000 = $10 per share
Year 1:
Earnings per share for common stock = $1,196,000/500,000 = $2.39 per share
Year 2:
Earnings per share for common stock = $1,506,500/500,000 = $3.01 per share
Net sales $18,750,000 ($15,000,000 * 1.25)
Less: Operating costs, except

What advice or tips would you give Mr. Youngher as he prepares for other interviews? He should learn to appreciate the power of appearance and improve his decoding skills to be a better reader of others’ reactions. He should cancel his appointments and clear his schedule when preparing for interviews, so he’s not late. He should associate with people from diverse cultures to learn about the various customs he’ll encounter in the workplace.
This is the scenario for this question:
Mr. Youngher arrives at his interview for a community relations internship with Bethlehem Electric in Chicago five minutes late and in a rumpled suit. When he is introduced to the chief marketing officer, Mr.Youngher moves in close as they shake hands and winks. The executive takes a step back
Answer:
He should learn to appreciate the power of appearance and improve his decoding skills to be a better reader of others’ reactions.
Explanation:
In the given scenario it is obvious that Mr Youngher did not read the situation and act appropriately.
He came late for the meeting. The correct thing for him to do would have been to apologize.
Instead he moves in close as they shake hands and winks. This kind of familiarity is inappropriate under the circumstances.
Also he went to the interview with a rumpled suit.
This would give a bad impression about himself.
He should learn that a neat appearance creates a good impression about people, this helps them rate you higher

In the month of November, Swifty Company Inc. wrote checks in the amount of $27850. In December, checks in the amount of $37986 were written. In November, $25399 of these checks were presented to the bank for payment, and $32656 were presented in December. No checks were outstanding at November 1. What is the amount of outstanding checks at the end of December
Answer:
$7,781
Explanation:
The amount of check at the end of December is computed as;
= Checks written in November + Checks written in December - Checks presented in November for payments - Checks presented in December for payments
= $27,850 + $37,986 - $25,399 - $32,656
= $7,781
A company is producing christmas light strings containing 20 small bulbs. Suppose the success or failure of a bulb is independent of the success or failure of other bulbs and the probability that a bulb is lightning properly is 0.92.
a. When you order a christmas light string, what is the probability of at most 3 of those small bulbs are not lightning properly.
b. Find the mean and the variance of bulbs in a string that are not lightning properly.
Answer:
Explanation:
Number of bulbs = 20
Success of a bulb lightning properly = 0.92
Success of a bulb not lightning properly = 0.08
We have to find the probability of atmost 3 bulbs not lightning properly -
The random Variable X follows binomial distribution
= 0.929385
Mean and variance of bulbs in a string that are not lightning properly is given by
Mean of binomial distribution or E(X) = n*p = 20*0.08 = 1.6
Variance of binomial distribution or V(X) = n*p*(1-p) = 20*0.08*0.92 = 1.472

Read the descriptions and identify which region each one describes.
1. Historically, this region has suffered from extreme poverty, which continues to this day. Growth has been effectively zero since the 1960s. Problems such as political instability, poor public health and a lack of effective institutions have all contributed to its stagnation.
2. Until the middle of the last century, these countries were relatively poor. Beginning in the mid 1970s, real GDP per capita growth has averaged 6% per year. The growth was achieved in part because of high levels of investment spending in the development of human and physical capital and rapid technological progress.
3. In the early 1990s, this region was in the middle of substantial social and economic reform. Countries in this region have experienced variable growth rates, depending on their ability to adapt to the modern market economy.
4. In the early 20th century, this region was reasonably prosperous. Since that time, however, growth has stagnated, owing to government instability, banking failures, and runaway inflation. Recently, some countries in the region have begun to grow more consistently, with one country becoming a powerhouse of world economic development.
A. European Transition Economies
B. North Africa
C. South Africa
D. Asian Tigers
E. North America
F. Western Europe
G. South America
H. Sub-Saharan Africa
Answer:
Identifying regions with appropriate descriptions:
Description Region
1. H. Sub-Saharan Africa
2. D. Asian Tigers
3. A. European Transition Economies
4. G. South America
Explanation:
One factor which promotes negative economic growth is political instability. There is also the lack of human and physical development and social and economic reforms, including inconsistencies in governmental policies. For the economy of a region to grow out of poverty, governments must collaborate to pursue reforms on a large scale.
The equilibrium level of real GDP in a country is $480 billion. Suppose that planned investment decreases by $5 billion. This decrease causes real GDP to shift to a new equilibrium level of $470 billion.
A. What will be the size of the spending multiplier for this country?
B. What is the marginal propensity to save (MPS) for this country?
Answer:
A. Spending multiplier for this country = 2
B. Marginal propensity to save (MPS) for this country = 0.5
Explanation:
A. What will be the size of the spending multiplier for this country?
This can be calculated as follows:
Change in real GDP = New real GDP – Old real GDP = $470 billion - $480 billion = -$10 billion
Change in planned investment = -$5 billion
Marginal propensity to spend = Change in planned investment / Change in real GDP = -$5 billion / -$10 billion = 0.5
Spending multiplier for this country = 1 / (1 - Marginal propensity to spend) = 1 / (1 – 0.5) = 1 / 0.5 = 2
B. What is the marginal propensity to save (MPS) for this country?
This can be calculated as follows:
Marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 1 - Marginal propensity to spend
Marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 1 – 0.5
Marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 0.5
The spending multiplier for the country would be 2.
The marginal propensity to save (MPS) for the country would be 0.5
What is the calculation of the spending multiplier?The spending multiplier would be derived after the computation of marginal propensity to spend.
Here, Change in planned investment would be divided by Change in real GDP, that is,
[tex]\frac{-5}{470-480} \\=0.5[/tex]
Therefore, the spending multiplier would be;
[tex]\frac{1}{1-MPS}\\ \frac{1}{1-0.5} \\=2[/tex]
What is the calculation of marginal propensity to save?
[tex]1-MPS\\=1-0.5\\=0.5[/tex]
