Answer:
D
Explanation:
An economic model is a caricature of reality. It allows users to observe, understand and predict economic phenomena. Economic models don't capture every detail of the real world
Examples of economic models include :
the production possibility frontierthe Keynesian IS/LM modelthe Mundell-Fleming model.The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.
The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.

The Bradley Corporation produces a product with the following costs as of July 1, 20X1: Material $4 per unit Labor 4 per unit Overhead 2 per unit Beginning inventory at these costs on July 1 was 4,250 units. From July 1 to December 1, 20X1, Bradley Corporation produced 14,500 units. These units had a material cost of $2, labor of $4, and overhead of $2 per unit. Bradley uses LIFO inventory accounting. a. Assuming that Bradley Corporation sold 18,000 units during the last six months of the year at $13 each, what is its gross profit
Answer:
Gross profit $83,000
Explanation:
The computation of the gross profit is as follows:
Sales (18,000 units × $13) $234,000
Less: Material
(14,500 × $2) -$29,000
(18,000 - 14,500) × $4 -$14,000
Less; labor
(14,500 × $4) -$58,000
(18,000 - 14,500) × $4 -$14,000
Less: Overhead
(14,500 × $2) -$29,000
(18,000 - 14,500) × $2 -$7,000
Gross profit $83,000
Kostelnik Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on total fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $555,000, variable manufacturing overhead of $2.10 per machine-hour, and 74,000 machine-hours. The company has provided the following data concerning Job A496 which was recently completed:
Number of units in the job 20
Total machine hours 80
Direct materials $500
Direct labor cost $2,160
The amount of overhead applied to job A496 is closes to____.
A) $1,256.
B) $632.
C) $944.
D) $312.
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $768
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (555,000/74,000) + 2.1
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $9.6 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to Job A496:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 9.6*80
Allocated MOH= $768

Which of the elements of this scenario represent a flow from a firm to a household? This could be a flow of dollars, inputs, or outputs. Check all that apply. The $250 Edison spends to purchase medical services from the Medical Clinic The mojito Hilary receives Hilary's labor The $200 per week Edison earns working for Little Havana
Answer:
1. The mojito Hilary receives
2. The $200 per week that Edison receives working for Little Havana
Explanation:
We are to pick the options that represents a flow from a firm to household.
There is a flow of labor from the household to the firm which results In a flow of goods or wages from the firm to the household.
1. The mojito that Hilary receives gives a flow of goods that is moving from the firm to the household.
2. The $200 per week that Edison is getting for working for Little Havana is a flow of money from the firm to edison for the services he renders at the firm. This here is a flow of money from the firm to the household
A company has derivatives transactions with Banks A, B, and C which are worth +$20 million, −$15 million, and −$25 million, respectively to the company. How much margin or collateral does the company have to provide? The transactions are cleared bilaterally and are subject to one-way collateral agreements where the company posts variation margin, but no initial margin. The transactions are cleared centrally through the same CCP and the CCP requires a total initial margin of $10 million.
Answer:
1. With Bilateral Clearing, where the company posts variation margin, but no initial margin:
The company has to provide collateral to Banks A, B, and C of $0 million, $15 million, and $25 million respectively.
Therefore, the total collateral required is $40 million.
2. With Central Clearing through the CCP, where the CCP usually requires an initial margin of $10 million:
The derivatives are netted against each other, and the company’s total variation margin is $20 million (–$20 + $15 + $25) in total.
The total margin required (including the initial margin) is, therefore, $30 million ($20 + $10 million).
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Worth of derivative with Bank A = +$20 million
Worth of derivative with Bank B = -$15 million
Worth of derivative with Bank C = -$25 million
b) In a bilateral clearing, the company and each bank (called market participants) enter into an agreement with each other to cover all outstanding derivative transactions between the two parties. On the other hand, in central clearing, a central clearing party (CCP) stands between the two sides of an OTC derivative transaction in much the same way that the exchange clearing house does for exchange-traded contracts.
You have decided to invest $15,000 in a money market fund that pays you interest at the annual rate of 6% and compounds interests monthly. Your plan is to take out your money in a year and pay taxes on the interest earned. If the corresponding tax rate is 20%, how much money in total will you expect to receive in a year after paying taxes.
Answer:
$15,869.66
Explanation:
The formula for determining the future value of the amount invested is :
FV = PV x (1 + r / m)^mn
FV = Future value
PV = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
m = number of compounding
$15,000 x (1+ 0.06/12)^12 = $15,925.17
Interest earned = future value - present value
$15,925.17 - $15,000 = $925.17
Tax paid on interest earned = 0.06 x $925.17 = $55.51
Interest after taxes = $925.17 - $55.51 = $869.66
Total amount expected = $15,000 + $869.66 = $15,869.66
Assume that you live in California and are on vacation, traveling by car from California to Texas. You are injured in a motel room when the bed on which you are sleeping collapses, causing you to fall to the floor. You suffer substantial back and leg injuries, requiring many medical treatments and causing you to miss work for 15 weeks. Your medical bills total $50,000 and your lost wages total $15,000. You intend to sue the owner of the Texas motel.
Required:
a. Can you bring your case in federal court? Why or why not?
b. Can you commence the case in California? What additional information might you need to answer this question?
c. At the end of the trial, the jury awards you $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages). After the trial, the attorney for the hotel approaches and offers to settle the case for $50,000. Should you consider accepting the settlement? Why or why not?
Answer:
a. No. A state court will do a better job in this case because it exercises unlimited jurisdiction. Moreover, you can only bring your case to a federal court if the amount of your claim is up to $75,000 or the issue is exclusive to the federal court. This is not the case here.
b. Yes and No. We need some additional information about the accident location to help answer this question definitively.
c. No. You should not consider accepting the offered settlement. The jury award is meant to pay for your medical bills and also to help you recover financially as though the accident did not happen in the first place. Accepting any lesser amount after the judgment is rendered is in bad taste. The other party should have negotiated to settle out of court before the final judgment was rendered. But it did not. So, go with the jury award.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Missed work for 15 weeks
Total medical bills incurred = $50,000
Total lost wages incurred = $15,000
Jury award = $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages)
Settlement offer = $50,000
1-a. Allocate the lump-sum purchase price to the separate assets purchased. 1-b. Prepare the journal entry to record the purchase. 2. Compute the first-year depreciation expense on the building using the straight-line method, assuming a 15-year life and a $28,000 salvage value. 3. Compute the first-year depreciation expense on the land improvements assuming a five-year life and double-declining-balance depreciation.
Answer:
1. a. Allocated prices
First add the market values = 444,150 + 255,150 + 56,700 + 189,000 = $945,0
00
Building allocated price Land allocated price
= 444,150/ 945,000 * 830,000 = 255,150/945,000 * 830,000
= $390,100 = $224,100
Land improvement allocated price Four vehicles allocate price
= 56,700/945,000 * 830,000 = 189,000/945,000 * 830,000
= $49,800 = $166,000
b. Journal entry

Jan. 1, 2017 Building $390,100
Land $224,100
Land improvement $49,800
Vehicles $166,000
Cash $830,000
2. Depreciation on building using straight-line method.
= (390,100 - 28,000) / 15
= $24,140
3. Depreciation on land improvements using double declining method.
First do straight line:
= 49,800/ 5 years
= $9,960
Straight line rate of depreciation = 9,960/49,800 = 20%
Double declining will be twice that rate = 40%
Depreciation = 40% * 49,800
= $19,920
Tirri Corporation has provided the following information: Cost per Unit Cost per Period Direct materials $ 7.50 Direct labor $ 3.85 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.55 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 24,400 Sales commissions $ 1.05 Variable administrative expense $ 0.60 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 8,800 If the selling price is $28.10 per unit, the contribution margin per unit sold is closest to:
Answer:
$13.55
Explanation:
The contribution margin per unit is computed as;
= Selling price - (Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Sales commission + Variable administrative expense)
= $28.10 - ($7.50 + $3.85 + $1.55 + $1.05 + $0.60)
= $28.10 - $14.55
= $13.55
Therefore , the contribution margin per unit is $13.55

The chart below gives prices and output information for the country of Utopia. Use this information to calculate real and nominal GDP for both years. Use 2001 as the base year.
Year 2000 2001
Price Quantity Price Quantity
Ice Cream $7.00 600 $3.00 400
Blue Jeans $70.00 20 $20.00 90
Laptops $300.00 5 $300.00 5
2000 nominal GDP = $_________
2001 nominal GDP = $_________
2000 real GDP = $_________
2001 real GDP = $_________
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Nominal GDP = Sum of (Present Year Price × Present Year Quantity)
And,
Real GDP = Sum of (Base Year Price × Present Year Quantity)
Now
(a) Nominal GDP, 2000 is
= $[(7 × 600) + (70 × 20) + (300 × 5)]
= $4,200 + $1,400 + $1,500
= $7,100
(b) Nominal GDP, 2001 is
= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]
= ($1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500)
= $4,500
(c) Real GDP, 2000 is
= $[(3 × 600) + (20 × 20) + (300 × 5)]
= $1,800 + $400 + 1,500
= $3,700
(d) Real GDP, 2001 is
= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]
= $1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500
= $4,500

Answer:
Manufacturing overhead= $59,000
Explanation:
Manufacturing overhead refers to indirect factory-related costs that are incurred when a product is manufactured. We need to identify the indirect costs incurred in production. It includes the depreciation of factory equipment.
Manufacturing overhead= Utilities, factory + Indirect labor + Depreciation of production equipment
Manufacturing overhead= 9,000 + 25,000 + 25,000
Manufacturing overhead= $59,000

1. Performance Report for the party:
Budget Actual Variance
Expected attendance (persons) 80 96 16
Room rental .. $ 170 $170 $0
Food ....... 660 875 $215 U
Entertainment .. 570 570 $0
Decorations ... 210 270 $60 U
Total ...... $1,610 $1,885 $275 U
2. The costs that deserve further examination are Food and Decorations. The party overspent on these items.
Explanation:
Since 96 persons attended the party, the food cost should have been = $792 ($660/80 * 96), which is the flexible budget cost. The cost of decorations should have remained $210 unless there were improper estimates of the items required for the decorations and the size of the party venue.
During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000. As of year end, Beta had resold only 60 percent of these intra-entity purchases. Alpha sells inventory to Beta at the same markup it uses for all of its customers. What is the total for consolidated cost of goods sold
Answer:
a. $173,000
Explanation:
Missing word "Alpha Company owns 80 percent of the voting stock of Beta Company. Alpha and Beta reported the following account information from their year-end separate financial records: Alpha Beta Inventory $95,000 $88,000 Sales Revenue 800,000 300,000 Cost of Goods Sold 600,000 180,000 During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000."
Percentage of profits Alpha charge to other customers = ($800,000 - $600,000) / $800,000 = 25% of sales
Stock held at year end by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $100,000 * 40% =$40,000
Profit involved in stock held by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $40,000 * 25% = $10,000
So, Value of stock of Beta = $88,000 - $10,000 = $78,000
Hence, Total for consolidated inventory = $95,000 + $78,000 = $173,000

Explanation:
State if each of the following statements is true or false. Justify your answers. The efficient-market hypothesis assumes that a. There are no taxes. b. There is perfect foresight. c. Successive price changes are independent. d. Investors are irrational. e. There are no transaction costs. f. Forecasts are unbiased.
Answer:
a. FALSE
The Efficient Market Hypothesis has no assumption that limits the role of taxes in the model so this statement is false.
b. FALSE
The model does believe in the notion of imperfect foresight because the model follows the assumption that it is not possible to estimate stock price with absolute accuracy.
c. TRUE
The model does indeed believe this because it assumes that the price on a day is independent of the price of the same stock on another day.
d. FALSE
It it believed that investors are rational.
e. FALSE
Transaction costs are catered for in the model so this statement is incorrect.
f. TRUE
As much as possible, the model does not allow for the creation of biased forecasts as it strives for no bias in its forecasts.
In a market system, the allocation of scarce goods involves the consideration of multiple choice 1 what must be sacrificed in using a resource for its next-best use. identifying the possibility of professional advancement. the time required to pursue an economic activity. the dollar cost of any good or service.
Answer:
what must be sacrificed in using a resource for its next-best use
Explanation:
The market cost would be managed by the clients also it would remember the advantage that is best Also it is remembered in order to support the satisfaction to their own decisions.
So in the case of the market system, the allocation of the scarcity goods would be based on the opportunity cost i.e. to be sacrificed for the next best usage
Departmental overhead rates are preferred over plantwide rates when: Multiple Choice The plant makes a single product. The products use different amounts of different processes in different departments. There are a number of different products in the plant which go through the same processes. The plant has a complex production process for a small number of products that go through the same production processes.
Answer:
The products use different amounts of different processes in different departments
Explanation:
Plant Wide overhead rates is basically a single rate that is used to assign to the company's manufacturing overhead costs. This is best used when a company produces single product. On the other hand, if the manufacturing of different products with use of different processes is being done then using plant wide rate (which applies only a single rate) might not be appropriate.
The activities of the diversified products would have a high correlation with regard to the input of overheads. Therefore, the departmental overhead rates are preferred when the products use different amounts of different processes in different departments.
1. Friedman distinguishes between the two concepts that (a) businesses really do act in ways to maximize profit and (b) businesses have a moral responsibility (or, as he puts it, a social responsibility) to act to maximize profit. How does he defend the latter position? (See both the Friedman and Sandbu readings)
Explanation:
Friedman defends the position that companies have a social responsibility to act to maximize profit, in the sense that, the primary function of companies is to generate profit. The author goes against the growing opinions in society that companies must have social responsibility, that is, they need to create a positive and sensitive corporate image to please political and society interests and counter or even soften the words and actions its central purpose, which is profit generation. For him, social responsibility cannot be politicized in order to be an obligation of companies, as it limits freedom and interests arising from the business.

Consider Pacific Energy Company and U.S. Bluechips, Inc., both of which reported earnings of $967,000. Without new projects, both firms will continue to generate earnings of $967,000 in perpetuity. Assume that all earnings are paid as dividends and that both firms require a return of 13%.
A. What is the current PE ratio for each company?
B. Pacific Energy Company has a new project that will generate additional earnings of $117,000 each year in perpetuity. Calculate the new PE ratio of the company.
C. Atlantic Energy has a new project that will increase earnings by $217,000 in perpetuity. Calculate the new PE ratio of the firm.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. Current PE ratio is
For Pacific energy company
= Price ÷ Earnings
= ($967,000 ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)
= 7.69 times
For U.S Bluechips
= Price ÷ Earnings
= ($967,000 ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)
= 7.69 times
b. The new PE ratio is
= Price ÷ Earnings
= (($967,000 + $117,000) ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)
= 8.62 times
c. The new PE ratio is
= Price ÷ Earnings
= (($967,000 + $217,000) ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)
= 9.42 times
At Medallion Industries, variable cost per unit is budgeted to be $8.00 and fixed cost per unit is budgeted to be $5.00 in a period when 4,000 units are produced. What is the expected total cost of the units produced at Medallion, if instead, production is actually 5,100 units
Answer:
Total cost= $60,800
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
For 4,000 units:
Unitary variable cost= $8
Unitary fixed cost= $5
First, we need to calculate the total fixed cost:
Total fixed cost= 5*4,000= $20,000
Now, we can determine the total cost for 5,100 units:
Total cost= 5,100*8 + 20,000
Total cost= $60,800
Parks Corporation is considering an investment proposal in which a working capital investment of $10,000 would be required. The investment would provide cash inflows of $2,000 per year for six years. The working capital would be released for use elsewhere when the project is completed. If the company's discount rate is 10%, the investment's net present value is closest to (Ignore income taxes.): Click here to view Exhibit 13B-1 and Exhibit 13B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using the tables provided.
Answer:
$4,355.26
Explanation:
The net present value is the present value of future cash flows expected from the project minus the initial investment outlay
initial investment outlay=working capital investment = -$10,000
Years 1-5 cash inflow=$2,000
Year 6 cash inflow=normal cash inflows+release of working capital
Year 6 cash inflow=$2,000+$10,000=$12,000
the present value of a future cash flow=cash flow/(1+r)^n
n is 1 for year cash inflow 2 for year 2 cash inflow, 3 for year 3 cash inflow and so on
NPV=-$10,000+$2,000/(1+10%)^1+$2,000/(1+10%)^2+$2,000/(1+10%)^3+$2,000/(1+10%)^4+$2,000/(1+10%)^5+$12,000/(1+10%)^6
NPV=$4,355.26

DRK, Inc., has just sold 100,000 shares in an initial public offering. The underwriter’s explicit fees were $60,000. The offering price for the shares was $40, but immediately upon issue, the share price jumped to $44. a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue? b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters? multiple choice Yes No
Answer: a. $460,000 ; b. No
Explanation:
a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue?
First, we calculate the implicit cost per share which will be:
= $44 - $40 = $4.
Therefore, the total implicit cost will be:
= $4 × 100,000
= $400,000
Therefore, total cost to DRK of the equity issue will be:
= Implicit cost + Explicit cost
= $400,000 + $60,000
= $460,000
b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters?
No. The entire cost of the underwriting would not be a source of profit to the underwriters. This is because the cost of underpricing isn't included.
