Direct advertising costs b. Newspaper ad space c. Sales

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Allocating cost using direct advertising costs

We have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000

b. Allocating cost using Newspaper ad space

We have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = $72,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = $36,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000

c. Allocating cost using Sales

We have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000

Explanation:

Given:

                                           New Cars         Used Cars       Parts and Service

Direct advertising costs     $30,000            $24,000                $6,000

Newspaper ad space               60%                  30%                       10%

Sales                                   $250,000          $200,000            $50,000

The costs allocated to each department can now be calculated as follows:

a. Allocating cost using direct advertising costs

The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:

Cost allocated to a department = (Direct advertising costs of the department  / Sum of direct advertising costs of the 3 departments) * Indirect advertising costs ................... (1)

Using equation (1), we have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = ($30,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = ($24,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = ($6,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $12,000

b. Allocating cost using Newspaper ad space

The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:

Cost allocated to a department = Percentage of  Newspaper ad space of the department * Indirect advertising costs ................... (2)

Using equation (2), we have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = 60% * $120,000 = $72,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = 30% * $120,000 = $36,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = 10% * $120,000 = $12,000

c. Allocating cost using Sales

The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:

Cost allocated to a department = (Sales of the department  / Sum of Sales of the 3 departments) * Indirect advertising costs ................... (3)

Using equation (3), we have:

Cost allocated to New Cars = ($250,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000 = $60,000

Cost allocated to Used Cars = ($200,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000  * $120,000 = $48,000

Cost allocated to Parts and Service = ($50,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000  * $120,000 = $12,000

"Which of the following is true? Airfreight A. has lower transporting rates than trucks. B. efficiently delivers all types of goods. C. serves many more locations than trucks. D. is best for goods that are heavy relative to their sales value, such as iron ore. E. can help reduce inventory costs."

Answers

Answer:

E. can help reduce inventory costs.

Explanation:

Airfreight can be defined as the transportation or movement of goods from one location to another through the air and use of shipping containers.

A shipping container refers to a metal container made from steel and having the ability or strength to withstand all external factors during shipment or storage of materials. It is an essential part of transportation of goods or materials from one location to another, thereby boosting trade between countries.

The various types of shipping containers are, dry storage container, open-side storage container, ISO Reefer container, flat rack container, tunnel container, open top container, double doors container, thermal containers, intermodal freight container etc.

An inventory cost can be defined as all costs such as carrying cost, stock out (shortage) cost and ordering cost that are associated with the procurement, holding (storage) and management (handling) of inventory.

Generally, airfreight can help to reduce the total logistics cost or inventory cost since it's faster, large and devoid of various impediments when compared with other forms of transportation.

Hence, the true statement about airfreight is that it can help reduce inventory costs.

Assuming that the underlying demand relation is a linear function of price and income, use your spreadsheet program to obtain least squares estimates of Ohio’s demand for KBC microbrews. Instruction:
If the estimate is negative, enter a negative number (-) in the equation.

Answers

Answer:

The least squares estimates of Ohio’s demand for KBC microbrews is Quantity = 1.57Price + 14.00Income.

Explanation:

Note: See Sheet1 of the attached excel for the replication of the data given in the question and Sheet2 for the regression analysis output.

In the third table in the Sheet2, the second column is for the coefficients where, by rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

Price = 1.57

Income = 14.00

Note: The intercept is 0 because a zero intercept was chosen in the analysi.

Based on the above, the least squares estimates of Ohio’s demand for KBC microbrews can be written as follows:

Quantity = 1.57Price + 14.00Income

To run the regression from Sheet1 in order to obtain the output in Sheet, follow his process:

Click the “Data” menu, and then the “Data Analysis” tab. From the new window, scroll down to find  and click on "Regression" and then click “OK”.

In the new window, click in the box of “Input Y Range”, and then select the column containing the Quantity data as the dependent variable. Also in the new window, click in the box of “Input X Range”, and then select the column containing the both Price and Income data as the independent variables.

If Frasquita accrued interest of $15,000 on the note in its 2021 year-end financial statements, what amount would it have recorded the equipment for on 6/30/2021

Answers

Answer:

$525,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what amount would it have recorded the equipment for on 6/30/2021

First step is to calculate the total interest for 10 months;

Based on the information given since the amount of $15,000 was the interest for 6 months in the year 2021 in which the note lasted for 10 months the total interest will be:

Total Interest = 10months/6months x $15,000 Total Interest=$25,000

Now let calculate 6/30/2021 Equipment

6/30/2021 Equipment=$550,000-$25,000

6/30/2021 Equipment=$525,000

Therefore what amount would it have recorded the equipment for on 6/30/2021 is $525,000

You decide to discount a $5,250, 345-day note at 3% to your bank at a discount rate of 4.5% on day 210. What are your proceeds

Answers

Answer: $5309.86

Explanation:

The proceeds will be calculated as:

Face value of note = $5250

Interest rate = 3%

Note tenure = 345

Number of days used = 360

Outstanding interest on note = $5250 × 3% × 345/360 = $150.94

Gross Proceeds = $5250 + $150.94 = $5400.94

Bank Discount rate = 4.5%

Discounting days = 210

Time if maturity left = 345 - 210 = 135

Discount rate for 135 days = 4.5%/360 × 135 = 1.69%

Discount value = $5400 × 1.69% = $91.14

Net proceeds after discount = $5400 - $91.14 = $5309.86

Answer:

12%

Explanation:

The computation of the yield to maturity is shown below:

Given that

Coupon (pmt) = $ 25

Present Value of Bond (PV) = $598.55

Face Value (FV) = $1000

No of Semi annual Period (nper) = 10 × 2 = 20

Now

The formula to calculate Bond's Half yearly yield to maturity is = rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

Are monopolistically competitive firms efficient in​ long-run equilibrium? Monopolistically competitive firms A. are productively efficient because they produce at minimum average total cost and they are not allocatively efficient because they produce where price is equal to marginal revenue. B. are not productively efficient because they do not produce at minimum marginal cost and they are allocatively efficient because they produce where price is equal to marginal revenue. C. are not productively efficient because they do not produce at minimum marginal cost and they are allocatively efficient because they produce where marginal cost equals marginal revenue. D. are not productively efficient because they do not produce at minimum average total cost and they are not allocatively efficient because they produce where price is greater than marginal cost. E. are not productively efficient because they do not produce at minimum average total cost and they are not allocatively efficient because they produce where price is less than marginal cost.

Answers

Answer:

E)are not productively efficient because they do not produce at minimum average total cost and they are not allocatively efficient because they produce where price is greater than marginal cost.

Explanation:

Monopolistic competition can be regarded as imperfect competition whereby many producers that are competing against each other exist in the market, though they are selling products which can be differentiated from one another. Monopolistically competitive firms do

maximize their profit if their production is at a level where marginal costs as well as its marginal revenues equals. Hence, monopolistically competitive firms are not productively efficient because they do not produce at minimum average total cost and they are not allocatively efficient because they produce where price is greater than marginal cost.

Larry estimates that the costs of insurance, license, and depreciation to operate his car total $320 per month and that the gas, oil, and maintenance costs are 14 cents per mile. Larry also estimates that, on average, he drives his car 1,400 miles per month. Required: a. How much cost would Larry expect to incur during April if he drove the car 1,529 miles

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The question above is incomplete. The concluding part is

b. Would it be meaningful for Larry to calculate an estimated average cost per mile for a typical 1,400 mile month. Yes or No

Given the above information,

a. Total number of miles driven = 1.529 miles

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost × Number of miles driven

= $320 + $0.14 × 1,529

= $320 + $214.06

= $534.06

b. Since $320 per month is the fixed, the fixed cost per mile will decrease with the increase in number of miles driven . It means that if he drives less than 1,400 miles , the actual cost will be more than the cost based on predetermined overhead rate of the cost.

No. It would not be meaningful for Larry to calculate an estimated average cost per mile for a typical 1,400 mile month.

Heidi is having trouble understanding the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement and why her workplace sent out an email affirming the company's commitment to diversity and inclusion. This is probably because as a white woman from a small town with little exposure to diversity efforts, Heidi has not had much education about what BLM is trying to accomplish. She is wrestling with this new information about systemic racism and ultimately dismisses it as unfounded because it is contrary to her past experiences. This is an illustration of which of the following?

a. Stereotyping
b. An entrenched mental model
c. Leader-Member Exchange Theory
d. Ethnocentrism
e. Social Identity Theory

Answers

Answer:

e. Social Identity Theory

Explanation:

It is correct to state that the scenario in the question above refers to the theory of social identity, which is a theory that seeks to explain how the categorization of groups such as those based on culture, social class, race, age, directly impact the life of an individual and their perception of the world. Psychology seeks to analyze how important it is for an individual to belong to a group and to form an identity based on the collective of that group, that is, to form a society.

Therefore, the theory of social identity suggests that there is an inclination for individuals to overestimate the characteristics of the group to which they belong and to minimize the characteristics of other groups, which can generate prejudice, racism and apathy, which is what happened with Heidi, who considered information about systemic racism unfounded by the fact that they are contrary to their previous experiences.

Explain why the U.S. demand for Mexican pesos is downsloping and the supply of pesos to Americans is upsloping. Assuming a system of flexible exchange rates between Mexico and the United States, indicate whether each of the following would cause the Mexican peso to appreciate or depreciate, other things equal: LO3 a. The United States unilaterally reduces tariffs on Mexican products. b. Mexico encounters severe inflation. c. Deteriorating political relations reduce American tourism in Mexico. d. The U.S. economy moves into a severe recession. e. The United States engages in a high-interest-rate monetary policy. f. Mexican products become more fashionable to U.S. consumers. g. The Mexican government encourages U.S. firms to invest in Mexican oil fields. h. The rate of productivity growth in the United States diminishes sharply.

Answers

Answer:

A. Appreciate - Mexican goods cheaper, US demand increase

B. Depreciate - high inflation raises price Mexican goods and US demand falls. Supply increases due to cheaper US goods

C. Depreciate - reduction of tourism reduces demand for peso

D. Depreciation - recession reduces imports from ME and decreases demand

E. Depreciate - high interest rate attract ME investors. Increase demand for US dollar and supply peso

F. Appreciate - US purchase pesos to invest in ME. Demand increases

H. Appreciate - decline in productivity reduces US investment. Decrease supply of pesos

Explanation:

The U.S demand for Mexican pesos is downward sloping which implies negative relation between exchange rate (price of per unit mexican pesos in terms of dollars) and demand for mexican pesos. When this price increases (U.S currency depreciates) the import from Mexico becomes expensive by U.S residents, therefore they would import less and hence lower demand of mexican pesos. Similarly the import from Mexico increases this implies more demand of mexican pesos when price of mexican pesos falls (U.S currency appreciates).

The supply of Mexican pesos to Americans is upward sloping because of positive relationship between price of mexican pesos in terms of U.S dollars and supply of mexican peso. when this price increases (U.S currency depriciates) the mexican people would demand more of U.S goods, therefore export of U.S  to Mexico increases that means more supply of mexican pesos to Americans. Similarly, when this price falls (U.S currency appreciates) the U.S goods to Mexico becomes more expensive, this causes fall in the export and therefore supply of...
