Suppose the demand function for a good is expressed as Q=100-4p. If the good currently sells for 10, what is the price elasticity equal to? a)-4 b)-1.5 c) -0.67 d) -2.5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c)-0.67

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the price elasticity equal to

Using this formula

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=dQ/dP*Q/P

Let plug in the formula

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=d(100-4p)/dp*p/100-4p

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=-4*p/100-4p

at p=$10

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=-4*$10/100-4($10)

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=-40/60

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=-2/3

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=-0.666

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)=-0.67 Approximately

Therefore the price elasticity equal to -0.67

Current information for the Stellar Corporation follows: Beginning work in process inventory $ 17,900 Ending work in process inventory 19,300 Direct materials used 147,000 Direct labor used 85,000 Total factory overhead 63,100 Stellar Corporation's cost of goods manufactured for the year is:

Answers

Answer:

The right answer is "$293700".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Direct material,

= $147000

Direct labor,

= $85000

Total factory overhead,

= $63100

Beginning work,

= $17900

Ending work,

= $19300

now,

The total manufacturing cost will be:

= [tex]Direct \ material +Direct \ labor+Total \ factory \ overhead[/tex]

= [tex]147000+85000+63100[/tex]

= [tex]295100[/tex] ($)

hence,

The costs of goods manufactured will be:

= [tex]Manufacturing \ cost+Beginning \ work-Ending \ work[/tex]

= [tex]295100+17900-19300[/tex]

= [tex]313000-19300[/tex]

= [tex]293700[/tex] ($)

Using the FIFO method, if the ending inventory is 400 units, what is the cost of the ending inventory

Answers

Answer: Cost of closing inventory =$25,000

Explanation:

Using the FIFO which is the First In First Out method, The inventorY purchased first  be  sold first with the  the ending inventory  consisting  of the most recent purchases.

Given nthta ending inventory is 400 units, we start fro  the most recent purchase

12/15   purchase of 100 units at $80 each=$8,000

6/15      purchase of 200 units at $60 each=$12,000

we are left with 100 units so

2/28 Purchase 100 units at $50 each =$5000

Cost of closing inventory =$8,000+$12,000+$5000= $25,000

Therefore cost of 400 units using the FIFO Method is $25,000.

Explanation:

When you go to a shop and buy something at the till and the cashier prints a receipt and gives it to you, that paper is a cash register tape.

A cash register tape therefore shows the goods sold and the amount the goods were sold at. It is therefore not used as a method of control for cash disbursement which is cash going out of a business but rather for cash that is coming into the business.

16) The Nantucket Nugget is unlevered and is valued at $640,000. Nantucket is currently deciding whether including debt in its capital structure would increase its value. The current of cost of equity is 12%. Under consideration is issuing $300,000 in new debt with an 8% interest rate and maintaining this dollar amount of debt in the long run. Nantucket would repurchase $300,000 of stock with the proceeds of the debt issue. There are currently 32,000 shares outstanding and its effective marginal tax bracket is 34%. What will Nantucket's new WACC be? (5 pts)

Answers

Answer:

10.34%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what will Nantucket's new WACC be

New Firm Value= $640,000 + (.34) ($300,000)

New Firm Value= $742,000

Capital Structure = $300,000 + $442,000

($742,000-$300,000=$442,000)

rs = .12 + (300/442) * (.12 - .08) * (1 - .34)

rs= .12 + .0179

rs = .1379*100

rs = 13.79%

Now let calculate the New WACC

New WACC = (300/742) * (.08) * (1 - .34) + (442/742) * (.1379)

New WACC= .0213 + .0821

New WACC= .1034*100

New WACC= 10.34%

Therefore what will Nantucket's new WACC be is 10.34%

Factory overhead 55,100
Beginning work in process inventory 10,700
Ending work in process inventory 11,300

Answers

Answer:

cost of goods manufactured= $98,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials used $19,000

Direct labor used 24,500

Factory overhead 55,100

Beginning work in process inventory 10,700

Ending work in process inventory 11,300

To calculate the cost of goods manufactured, we need to use the following formula:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

cost of goods manufactured=  10,700 + 19,000 + 24,500 + 55,100 -11,300

cost of goods manufactured= $98,000

Bonita Company had the following department information about physical units and percentage of completion: Physical Units Work in process, May 1 (60%) 59100 Completed and transferred out 179500 Work in process, May 31 (40%) 49800 If all materials are added at the beginning of the production process, what is the total number of equivalent units for materials during May?

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent units of production= 229,300

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Physical Units Work in process, May 1 (60%) 59100

Completed and transferred out 179500

Work in process, May 31 (40%) 49800

To calculate the equivalent units, we need to use the following formula:

Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production

Equivalent units of production= 179,500 + 49,800*1

Equivalent units of production= 229,300

Because the direct material is added at the beginning of the process, the %of completion is 100%.

You have deposited $1,200 into an account that will earn an interest rate of 8% compounded semiannually. How much will you have in this account at the end of 10 years

Answers

Answer:

$2,629.35

Explanation:

The amount in future for the dollar invested today is known as the Future Value (FV)

We can simply calculate the Future Value using a Financial Calculator as follows :

PV = - $1,200

PMT = $0

P/YR = 2

I = 8 %

N = 10 x 2 = 20

FV = ??

Therefore,

The Future Value (FV) will be $2,629.35

You will have $2,629.35 in this account at the end of 10 years.

You consider buying a share of stock at a price of $24. The stock is expected to pay a dividend of $1.32 next year, and your advisory service tells you that you can expect to sell the stock in 1 year for $27. The stock's beta is 0.6, rf is 10%, and E[rm] = 20%. What is the stock's abnormal return?

Answers

Answer:

2%

Explanation:

Actual return = [(Dividend + Capital gain) / Purchase price] * 100

= [($1.32 + $27 - $24) / $24] * 100

= 18%

Expected return = rf + Beta*(E(rm) - rf)

= 10% + 0.6*(20% - 10%)

= 16%

Abnormal return = Actual return - Expected return

Abnormal return = 18% - 16%

Abnormal return = 2%

Given:

Income from city bond = $122,000

Find:

Effective tax rate

Computation:

We know thar Marc is single tax payee

So,

As per rule

Federal tax = $14,089.50 + (Income - $82,500)24%

Federal tax = $14,089.50 + ($122,000 - $82,500)24%

Federal tax = $23,569.50

Effective tax rate = (Federal tax / Income)100

Effective tax rate = [23,569.50/122,000]100

Effective tax rate = [0.1931]100

Effective tax rate = 19.31% (Approx.)

tylor is considering a five-year project that will require $859,000 for new fixed assets that will be deprecieated what is the amount of the aftertax salvage value

Answers

Answer:

$120,603.60

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

But before that the following calculations to be done

Salvage Value = Cost of Asset × 18%

= $859,000 × 18%

= $154,620

Since the fixed asset depreciated to zero for the 5 years so the book value should also be zero

Now  

Capital Gain = Salvage Value - Book value of Asset

= $154,620 - $0

= $154,620

Tax on Capital Gain = Capital Gain  ×  Tax Rate

= $154,620  ×  0.22

= $34,016.4

And finally,

After Tax Salvage Value = Salvage Value - Tax on Capital Gains

= $154,620 - $34,016.40

= $120,603.60

Answers

Answer:

the rate of output where marginal revenue equals marginal cost.

Explanation:

A monopoly is a market structure which is typically characterized by a single-seller who sells a unique product in the market by dominance. This ultimately implies that, it is a market structure wherein the seller has no competitor because he is solely responsible for the sale of unique products without close substitutes.

Additionally, a monopolist refer to any individual that deals with the sales of unique products in a monopolistic market.

A monopolist maximizes profits by finding the rate of output or quantity where marginal revenue (MR) equals marginal cost (MC) and the intersection of these two (2) points determines the equilibrium of a business firm.

Marginal revenue can be defined as the additional amount of money that is gained or generated by a business firm from the sales of an additional unit of a product or service.

Marginal cost can be defined as the additional or extra cost that is being incurred by a company as a result of the production of an additional unit of a product or service.

Generally, marginal cost can be calculated by dividing the change in production costs by the change in level of output or quantity.
