______________, a vast network of linked computers, had its origins in the late 1960s, when scientists at the United States Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) established the ARPAnet computer network so they could transfer data between sites working on similar research projects. This led to a quantum leap forward in computer communications.

Answer 1

Answer:

The internet.

Explanation:

The internet refers to a vast, global system of interconnected computer networks.

There's a standard framework for the transmission of informations on the internet, it is known as the internet protocol suite or Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) model. One of the very basic rule of the TCP/IP protocol for the transmission of information is that, informations are subdivided or broken down at the transport layer, into small chunks called packets rather than as a whole.

Hence, the standard Internet communications protocols which allow digital computers to transfer (prepare and forward) data over long distances is the TCP/IP suite.

Additionally, WWW simply means World Wide Web. The World Wide Web was invented by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 1990 while working with the European Council for Nuclear Research (CERN); Web 2.0 evolved in 1999. Basically, WWW refers to a collection of web pages that are located on a huge network of interconnected computers (the Internet). Also, users from all over the world can access the world wide web by using an internet connection and a web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc.

Yuri owns just one ship, he calls it Previt. The ship is worth $25 million dollars. If the ship sinks, Yuri loses $25 million. The probability that it will sink is .02. Yuri's total wealth, including the value of the ship is $50 million. He is an expected utility maximizer with utility U(W) equal to W2. What is the maximum amount that Yuri would be willing to pay in order to be fully insured against the risk of losing his ship

Answers

Answer:

$745,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the maximum amount that Yuri would be willing to pay in order to be fully insured against the risk of losing his ship

First step is to calculate the Expected Utility (√W)

Expected Utility = (98% x √$25,000,000) + (2% x √$0)

Expected Utility = $4,900

Second step is to calculate the Fair premium of insurance policy using this formula

Fair premium of insurance policy = Probability of loss x Size of loss

Let plug in the formula

Fair premium of insurance policy = 2% x $25,000,000

Fair premium of insurance policy = $500,000

Third step is to calculate the Maximum premium using this formula

Maximum premium = Maximum utility - Expected Utility²

Let Plug in the formula

Maximum premium = $25,000,000 - $4,900²

Maximum premium = $25,000,000 - $24,010,000

Maximum premium= $990,000

Now let calculate the Maximum amount willing to pay using this formula

Maximum amount willing to pay = (Fair premium + Maximum premium) / 2

Let plug in the formula

Maximum amount willing to pay= ($ 500,000 + $990,000) / 2

Maximum amount willing to pay=$1,490,000/2

Maximum amount willing to pay= $745,000

Therefore the maximum amount that Yuri would be willing to pay in order to be fully insured against the risk of losing his ship is $745,000

Leto Company manufactures a certain type of alloy. The alloy undergoes a hardening process. The hardening unit is operating at full capacity and is a production constraint. The unit contribution margin and the number of hours of hardening treatment used by the alloy are as follows: Unit selling price$96.80 Unit variable cost(23.50) Unit contribution margin$73.30 Hardening treatment hours per unit5 hrs. Assuming Leto produces 2,300 units of the alloy, calculate the unit contribution margin per production constraint hour.

Answers

Answer:

Leto Company

The unit contribution margin per production constraint hour is:

= $0.00637.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Unit selling price =              $96.80

Unit variable cost =              (23.50)

Unit contribution margin = $73.30

Hardening treatment hours per unit = 5 hours

Units of alloy produced = 2,300

Total hours spent on hardening treatment = 11,500 (5 * 2,300)

Contribution margin per production constraint hour = Unit contribution margin/Total hours spent on hardening treatment

= $0.00637 ($73.30/11,500)

b) The unit contribution margin per production constraint hour shows the contribution margin that is made per unit of the production constraint.  The production constraint is the limited input resources that are available for production.  It is a product of the units of the alloy that Leto produces and the number of hours required to produce one unit.

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) reports that the HP Spectre laptop computer starts at $994.00 for a base configuration. The model displayed at its recent show costs $1,353, $118 more than the comparable 13-inch Apple MacBook Air. If Computers-R-Us buys the HP Spectre at the show with 3/15, net 30 terms on August 26, how much does it need to pay on September 9

Answers

Answer: $1312.41

Explanation:

The following information can be depicted from the question:

Cost of HP Spectre laptop = $1353

Credit terms = 3/15, net 30

Therefore, since discount allowed is 3%, the complement of the discount rate will be:

= 100% - 3%

= 97%

Therefore, amount needed to pay will be:

= Listed price × Complement of discounts rate

= $1353 × 97%

= $1353 × 0.97

= $1312.41

Therefore, the amount needed to pay is $1312.41

The cost of issuing new common stock is calculated the same way as the cost of raising equity capital from retained earnings. False: Flotation costs need to be taken into account when calculating the cost of issuing new common stock, but they do not need to be taken into account when raising capital from retained earnings. True: The cost of retained earnings and the cost of new common stock are calculated in the same manner, except that the cost of retained earnings is based on the firm’s existing common equity, while the cost of new common stock is based on the value of the firm’s share price net of its flotation cost.

Answers

Answer: False: Flotation costs need to be taken into account when calculating the cost of issuing new common stock, but they do not need to be taken into account when raising capital from retained earnings.

Explanation:

When issuing common stock, the firm will need to pay certain floatation costs such as underwriting fees, legal fees, and registration fees. These will reduce the net amount received from the floatation of new securities.

When raising capital from the retained earnings however, the company can avoid flotation costs because they would be acquiring funds internally and so do not have to worry about paying other entities to access it.

if a bond with a $1,000 par value, 20 years to maturity, and a coupon interest rate of 10% was selling for $1100, then the yield to maturity on that bond is: A. is less than 10% B. is greater than 10% C. is 10% D. cannot be determined g

Answers

Answer:

a

Explanation:

the yield to maturity of a bond is the total return on a bond if the bond is held to maturity. it is the equivalent of the internal rate of return.

If the yield to maturity is greater than the bonds coupon rate the bond is selling at a discount

If the yield to maturity is less than the bonds coupon rate the bond is selling at a premium

If a bond’s coupon rate is equal to its yield to maturity, then the bond is selling at par.

the bond is selling at a premium as 1100 is greater than 1000. Thus, the ytm is less than 10%

Write a short paragraph describing how segmentation could make your marketing efforts more effective.

g A manufacturer is considering replacing a production machine tool. The new machine would cost $3700, have a life of four years, have no salvage value, and save the firm $500 per year in direct labor cost and $200 per year indirect labor costs. The existing machine tool was purchased four years ago at a cost of $4000. It will last four more years and have no salvage value at the end of that time. It could be sold now for $1000 cash. Assume money is worth 8%, and that the difference in taxes, insurance, and so forth, for the two alternatives is negligible. Determine whether or not the new machine should be purchased

Answers

Answer:

The new machine should not be purchased

Explanation:

Calculation to determine whether or not the new machine should be purchased

Calculation for the New Machine

EUAC = $3,700 (A/P, 8%, 4) - $500 - $200

EUAC= $3,700 (0.3019) - $700

EUAC=$1,117.03+$700

EUAC= $417.03

Calculation for EXISTING MACHINE

EUAC = $1,000 (A/P, 8%, 4)

EUAC= $1,000 (0.3019)

EUAC= $301.90

Therefore based on the above calculation The new machine should NOT be purchased reason been that it is more COSTLIER than the Existing Machine

Explanation:

RealTurf is considering purchasing an automatic sprinkler system for its sod farm by borrowing the entire $50,000 purchase price. The loan would be repaid with four equal annual payments at an interest rate of 12%/year. It is anticipated that the sprinkler system would be used for 9 years and then sold for a salvage value of $5,000. Annual operating and maintenance expenses for the system over the 9-year life are estimated to be $10,500 per year. If the new system is purchased, cost savings of $20,500 per year will be realized over the present manual watering system. RealTurf uses a MARR of 15%/year for economic decision making.What is the internal rate of return used to reach your decision?

Answers

Answer:

savings per year = $20,500 - $10,500 = $10,000

the loan and interest are not included in the calculation

initial outlay = $50,000

cash flows 1-8 = $10,000

cash flow 9 = $15,000

discount rate = 15%

using a financial calculator, the NPV = -$862.85, and the IRR = 14.53%

Michael McBride is an employee of Reach-it Pharmaceuticals. His company car is a 2019 Lexus GS 200t with a fair-market value of $50,000 and a lease value of $13,250, according to Publication 15-b. During the year, Michael drove 45,000 miles, of which 9,000 were for personal use. The car was available for use on 270 of the days during the year. All gasoline was provided by the employer and is charged back to Michael at $0.055 per mile. What is the amount of the company-car fringe benefit that will appear on Michael's W-2, using the lease-value rule

Answers

Answer:

Michael

The amount of the company-car fringe benefit that will appear on Michael's W-2, using the lease-value rule is:

= $1,960.27

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Fair market value of 2019 Lexus GS 200t = $50,000

Lease value of the company car = $13,250

Distance that Michael drove the car during the year = 45,000

Personal use of the car during the year = 9,000

Percentage of personal use = 9,000/45,000 * 100 = 20%

Availability of the car during the year = 270

Gasoline charged back to Michael by the employer = $0.055 * 45,000 * 20%

= $495

Company-car fringe benefit that will appear on Michael's W-2, using the lease-value rule is = $13,250 * 20% * 270/365 = $1,960.27

Folklore Music manufactures harmonicas. Folklore uses standard costs to judge performance. Recently, a clerk mistakenly threw away some of the records, and only partial data for July exist. Folklore knows that the total direct labor variance for the month was $350 F and that the standard labor rate was $11 per hour. A recent pay cut caused a favorable labor rate variance of $0.40 per hour. The standard direct labor hours for actual July outputs were 5,910.

Required:
a. Find the actual number of direct labor hours worked during July. First, find the actual direct labor rate per hour. Then, determine the actual number of direct labor hours worked by setting up the computation of the total direct labor variance as given.
b. Compute the direct labor rate and efficiency variances. Do these variances suggest that the manager may have made trade-offs? Explain.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. The actual direct labor rate per hour will be:

= Standard direct labor rate per hour - favorable labor rate variance

= $11 - $0.40

= $10.60

Then, the actual direct labor hours worked during July will be calculated as:

= (5910 × $11) - $350 / $10.6

= ($65010 - $350) / $10.6

= $64660 / $10.6

= 6100

b. The direct labor rate variance will be:

= (Actual rate per hour - standard rate per hour) × Actual labor hours

= (10.60 - 11.00) × 6100

= 2440F

Direct labor efficiency variance will be:

= (6900 - 5910) × $11

= 2090U

The direct labor rate variance that was favorable shows that the manager paid a lower rate to its staffs while the direct labor efficiency variance that was unfavorable implies that the manager used less efficient workers. This indicates that a trade-off took place.

= (6900

In the market for pickled herring there are two competing producers: Abbas and Taste of Base. Both herring manufacturers have fixed cost of $240,000 a year and a constant marginal cost (AVC) of $1.80 per jar. In the current year, Abbas produced and sold 125,000 jars of herring while Taste of Base produced and sold 150,000 jars. Based on this information, we can expect Taste of Base's quantity sold to _____________ and its ________ in the future.

Answers

Answer: a. increase; average fixed cost to decrease.

Explanation:

Taste of Base produced and sold 150,000 jars of herring which was more than that of Abbas. As far as competition goes, Base is ahead of Abbas and this will only increase in future as they have the same cost yet are ahead. This efficiency will ensure that their quantity sold will increase.  

Their average fixed cost will therefore decrease because average fixed cost is total fixed cost divided by the number of units produced so with a higher production level, there will be less average fixed cost.

Suppose a drop in the compensating wage differential between risky jobs and safe jobs has been observed. Two explanations have been put forward: • Engineering advances have made it less costly to create a safe working environment. • The phenomenal success of a new reality show Die on the Job! has imbued millions of viewers with a romantic perception of work-related fatal risks. Using demand and supply diagrams of risky jobs, show how each of the two developments can explain the drop in the compensating wage differential. Can information on the number of workers employed in the risky occupation help determine which explanation is more plausible?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the advancement of engineering has allowed it to be cheaper for a company to promote a safe environment for professionals than to pay a higher salary for the risk they run within the work environment. This causes companies to modify the offer of risky jobs, as a way of reducing expenses. However, due to wage compensation, the demand for these jobs remains high, because professionals are attracted to compensation. To stop this demand, companies promote a compensation differential, which modifies the demand curve by decreasing it, which means that fewer people will look for these jobs.
