Answer:
$14,407.72
$10,604.64
$15,979.32
Explanation:
The formula to be used is :
FV = PV x е^r x N
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
$1,900 x e^0.08 x 7 = $14,407.72
$1,900 x e^0.11 x 5 = $10,604.64
$1,900 x e^0.05 x 8 = $15,979.32
What factors account for a fall in the long-run cost curve?
You are considering buying stock A. If the economy grows rapidly, you may earn 40 percent on the investment, while a declining economy could result in a 15 percent loss. Slow economic growth may generate a return of 3 percent. If the probability is 19 percent for rapid growth, 39 percent for a declining economy, and 42 percent for slow growth, what is the expected return on this investment
Answer:
3.01%
Explanation:
Calculation for what is the expected return on this investment
Expected return =(0.19)(0.40) + (0.42)(0.03) + (0.39)(-0.15)
Expected return=0.076+0.0126+-0.0585
Expected return=0.0301*100
Expected return=3.01%
Therefore the expected return on this investment will be 3.01%
Bassett Corporation has two production departments, Milling and Customizing. The company uses a job-order costing system and computes a predetermined overhead rate in each production department. The Milling Department's predetermined overhead rate is based on machine-hours and the Customizing Department's predetermined overhead rate is based on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the current year, the company had made the following estimates:
Machining Customizing
Machine-hours 17,000 15,000
Direct labor-hours 3,000 6,000
Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $102,000 $61,200
Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $1.70
Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $4.10
During the current month the company started and finished Job T268. The following data were recorded for this job:
Job T268: Machining Customizing
Machine-hours 80 30
Direct labor-hours 30 50
Direct materials $720 $380
Direct labor cost $900 $1,500
If the company marks up its manufacturing costs by 40% then the selling price for Job T268 would be closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
a. $6,763.40
b. $7,440.00
c. $4,831.00
d. $1,932.40
Answer:
a. $6,763.40
Explanation:
The computation of the selling price is shown below:
But before that the predetermined overhead rate is
For machining
= ($102000 ÷ 17,000) + $1.70
= $7.7 per machine hour
For fabrication
= ($61200 ÷ 6000) + $4.10
= $14.30 per labour hour
Now the selling price is
Direct material ($720 + $380) $1,100
Direct labor ($900 + $1,500) $2,400
Machining department overhead (7.7 × 80) $616
Fabrication department overhead (50 × 14.3) $715
Total manufacturing cost $4,831
Markup 40% $1,932.40
Selling price $6,763.40
Manufacturers of large equipment such as aircraft and ships and companies involved in road construction have jobs that may require two or more years for completion. For example, Boeing Corporation might have an order for 50 aircraft for a particular airline, and the order will extend over a three- to five-year period. Aircraft are delivered as completed, but not in a batch of 50 at one time. In the typical fashion, the overhead application rate must be calculated and applied in such a way that each aircraft that is delivered has the proper amount of overhead for that aircraft. Required: What unique difficulties do you see in the calculation and application of overhead in industries such as aircraft manufacturing or shipbuilding
Answer and Explanation:
The unique difficulty that faced by industries in terms of aircraft manufacturing or ship building that includes the measurement of the capciaty cost that would be distributed each year with respect to the job. The overhead would be distributed to the capacity spent. Also the company find to be difficult for tracking the actual capacity i.e. used in the production of a single aircraft or ship. In this case, the predetermined overhead rate would not be worked.

1. What information is provided by the budget? Specifically, what questions can the bank manager ask of the Operations Department
manager?
2. What information does the static budget fail to provide? Specifically, could the budget information be presented differently to
provide even more insight for the bank manager?
Answer:
Some of the information provided by the budget is...
fixed costs - items such as rent, salaries and financing costs
variable costs - including raw materials and overtime
one-off capital costs - purchases of computer equipment or premises, for example
Some interview questions include:
What would you say is your leadership style?
You have an underperforming team member–how do you handle that?
Your team's morale has been low–how would you go about fixing that?
Tell me about a past project that did not go as planned.
2. One key disadvantage of a static budget is that it is not flexible and so it cannot be changed to take advantage of changes in revenue or expenses as the year proceeds. With a static budget, companies cannot manage the impact of changes, for example, by decreasing a portion of the budget in response to slow sales.

Before work can begin on the project, the customer must Group of answer choices sign a contract with the contractor that includes the project start date and payment plan. assess the risks for completing the project on time and reduce the award amount if there is any risk. announce who won the bid for the project so the work can start immediately. contact the contractor and say the project is the winner so the work can start immediately.
Answer:
sign a contract with the contractor that includes the project start date and payment plan.
Explanation:
A contract can be defined as an agreement between two or more parties (group of people) which gives rise to a mutual legal obligation or enforceable by law.
Mutual assent is a legal term which represents an agreement by both parties to a contract. When two parties to a contract both have an understanding of the parameters, terms and conditions surrounding a contract, it ultimately implies that they are in agreement; this is generally referred to as mutual assent.
Hence, before work can begin on the project, the customer must sign a contract with the contractor that includes the project start date and payment plan.

_________ hours
What is the average number of hours between when a job is received and when it is completed? Round your answer to one decimal place.
_________ hours
What percentage of the time is Gubser's welder busy? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
_________ % of the time the welder is busy.
Answer:
a) Mean arrival rate in jobs per hour = 0.6250
b) Mean service rate in jobs per hour = 0.7692
c) The average number of jobs waiting for service = 2.802
d) Average time a job waits before the welder can begin working on it = 4.5 hours
e) Average number of hours between when a job is received and when it is completed = 5.8 hours
f) Percentage of the time is Gubser's welder busy = 81%
Explanation:
As given,
Number of jobs = 5
Rate = 8 hour per day
Average hours = 1.3
Standard deviation - 1 hour
a)
Mean arrival = [tex]\frac{No. of jobs}{rate}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] = 0.6250 per hour
⇒Mean arrival rate in jobs per hour = 0.6250
b)
Mean service rate = [tex]\frac{hour}{average hour}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{1.3}[/tex] = 0.7692 per hour
⇒Mean service rate in jobs per hour = 0.7692
c)
Average number of job waiting for service = [tex]\frac{(0.6250)^{2} (1)^{2} + \frac{0.6250}{0.7692} }{2 ( 1 - \frac{0.6250}{0.7692} )}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1.05}{0.375}[/tex] = 2.802
⇒The average number of jobs waiting for service = 2.802
d)
Average time a job waits before the welder can begin working on it = [tex]\frac{2.802}{0.6250}[/tex]
= 4.5 hr
⇒Average time a job waits before the welder can begin working on it = 4.5 hours
e)
Average number of hours between when a job is received and when it is completed = 4.5 + [tex]\frac{1}{0.7692}[/tex]
= 4.5 + 1.3
= 5.8 hours
⇒Average number of hours between when a job is received and when it is completed = 5.8 hours
f)
Percentage of the time is Gubser's welder busy = [tex]\frac{0.6250}{0.7692}[/tex] ×100%
= 0.8125×100%
= 81.25% ≈ 81%
⇒Percentage of the time is Gubser's welder busy = 81%

What is development?A subfield of economics called "development economics" is concerned with enhancing the fiscal, economic, and social situations in underdeveloped nations.
With an emphasis on enhancing conditions in the world's poorest nations, development economics takes into account elements including health, education, working conditions, local and international policy, and market conditions.
The area also looks at macroeconomic and microeconomic aspects of developing economies' structures, as well as domestic and global economic growth.
Because every country has a unique set of cultural, social, and economic institutions, the application of development economics is intricate and varied.
Mercantilism, nationalism, the linear stages of growth model, and structural-change theory are four popular theories of development economics.
Determining whether rapid population increase aids or hinders development, changing the way economies are structured, and the importance of education and healthcare are some components of development economics.

Babe Ruth was a famous baseball player in the 1920s. He made a salary of $80,000 in 1930, which was considered outrageous because it was more than President Hoover made ("I had a better year than he did" was Ruth's supposed response). Nowadays, baseball players make much more than $80,000; the average major league salary in 2017 is $4.47 million per year, and the highest salary is $33 million for Clayton Kershaw. Some of the difference in salaries between Babe Ruth and today's players is due to inflation, and some of it is due to the fact that major league players make more in real terms today, because the market for baseball has grown over times and because players have gotten a higher share of the baseball pie over time because they have a powerful union How much of the difference is due to inflation? What is Babe Ruth's 1930 salary in today's dollars? You can use the same "index method" formula that we used to convert nominal GDP to real GDP in class. There are various websites that show the Consumer Price Index for various years.
Answer:
In real dollars, Babe Ruth's salary = $80,000 / 0.0645 (CPI 1930) = $1,240,000
Since Babe Ruth was the highest paid baseball player back then, if we compare his updated salary to Kershaw's salary, it represents only = $1,240,000 / $33,000,000 = 3.76%.
That means that most of the players' salary raise was due to other factors, not just inflation.

Answer:
34 coupons. $33.75Explanation:
The coupons are the interest payments the bond makes.
1. The bond has a term of 17 years and coupons are to be paid semi-annually.
This means that for every year, 2 coupon payments will be made.
In 17 years therefore:
= 17 * 2
= 34 coupons
2. The interest on this bond is 6.75% in a year. The coupon is however, semi-annual. Payment per coupon will therefore be half of the yearly rate:
= 6.75% * 1,000 * 1/2
= $33.75

Materials cost per EUP = $157,605 / 1,900 = $82.95
Labor cost per EUP = $59,490 / 1,800 = $33.05
Overhead cost per EUP = $288,745 / 1,700 = $169.85
b. Compute the total cost per equivalent whole unit.
total cost per EUP = $82.95 + $33.05 + $169.85 = $285.85

A local college is deciding whether to conduct a campus beautification initiative that would involve various projects, such as planting trees and remodeling buildings, to make the campus more aesthetically pleasing. For the students of the college, the visual appearance of the campus is _____and ________Thus, the visual appearance would be classified as a public good. Suppose the college administrators estimate that the beautification initiative will cost $1,540. To decide whether the initiative should be undertaken,
administrators conduct a survey of the college's 380 students, asking each of them their willingness to pay for the beautification project. The average willingness to pay, as revealed by the survey, is $14.
The benefit of the beautification initiative, as suggested by the survey, is $ ________.Because the estimated benefit is________ than the cost, the college administrators _________ undertake the beautification initiative.
The calculation of the benefit of the beautification initiative relied on the ability of the administrators to capture the true willingness to pay of each student accurately.
Which of the following scenarios would cause the survey used by the college administrators to yield misleading data on willingness to pay?
a. Students believe that if the initiative does not happen, the funds for the initiative will not be spent elsewhere.
b. Students believe they will eventually be charged their willingness to pay.
Answer:
non-rival
non-excludable
$5320
greater
should
b
Explanation:
A public good is a good that is non rivalled and non excludable in consumption. An example is road networks.
If the beautification project is carried out, a student cannot be excluded from benefitting from the project. The benefit a student derives from the project isn't affected by the benefit other students derive from it
Benefit of the project = number of students x willingness to pay
$14 x 380 = $5320
Because the benefit is greater than the cost of the project, the project should be undertaken
Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer is willing to pay for a product
Willingness to pay might be misstated if students think they would be charged their willingness to pay. They would understate their willingness to pay.
If the supply of a good increased, what would be the effect on the equilibrium price and quantity?
Answer:
An increase in supply, all other things unchanged, will cause the equilibrium price to fall; quantity demanded will increase. A decrease in supply will cause the equilibrium price to rise; quantity demanded will decrease.
If supply increases while all other factors remain constant, the equilibrium price will fall. The quantity demanded will rise. A decrease in supply raises the equilibrium price while decreasing the quantity demanded.
What is supply?Supply is a fundamental economic concept that describes the total amount of a specific good or service that consumers have access to.
If displayed on a graph, supply can refer to the amount available at a specific price or the amount available across a range of prices. Changes in the supply curve shift the equilibrium price and quantity. If supply grows, equilibrium price falls and quantity grows.
Therefore, an increase in the supply will cause a reduction in equilibrium price and an increase in the quantity of a good.

Tomkat Corp. has only a single asset. This asset generates operating cash flow of $300,000 per year, in perpetuity. Tomkat also has a single liability, which is a perpetual bond (the maturity date is infinitely far in the future) that has a face value of $1 million and that pays coupon interest at a rate of 6% once per year. The appropriate discount rate for the asset is 10%, while that for the bond is 5% per year.
Required:
What is the value of Tomkat’s equity?
Answer:
$1,800,000
Explanation:
Value of Tomcat's Asset = $300000 / 0.1
Value of Tomcat's Asset = $3,000,000
Interest amount = $1,000,000 * 6%
Interest amount = $60000
Value of Liability (bond) = $60000/0.05
Value of Liability (bond) = $1,200,000
Value of Tomcat's equity = $3000000 - $1200000
Value of Tomcat's equity = $1,800,000
