Yard Tools manufactures lawnmowers, weed-trimmers, and chainsaws. Its sales mix and unit contribution margin are as follows. Sales Mix Unit Contribution Margin Lawnmowers 20 % $33 Weed-trimmers 50 % $22 Chainsaws 30 % $41 Yard Tools has fixed costs of $4,544,800. Compute the number of units of each product that Yard Tools must sell in order to break even under this product mix. Lawnmowers units Weed-trimmers units Chainsaws units

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin

Weighted average contribution margin= 0.2*33 + 0.5*22 + 0.3*41

Weighted average contribution margin= $29.9

Break-even point (units)= 4,544,800 / 29.9

Break-even point (units)= 152,000 units

Now, for each product:

Lawnmowers= 0.2*152,000=30,400

Weed-trimmers= 0.5*152,000= 76,000

Chainsaws= 0.3*152,000= 45,600

demand curve for labor to shift?

I will give brainliest

Answers

Answer:

An increase or decrease in the quantity demanded is shown as movement along the demand curve and is due to a change in price as shown in the graph on the prior page.  An increase or decrease in demand is shown by a shift in the demand curve. A change in the demand of a good or service is caused by something other than a change in the price of a good or service.  

Explanation:

When the demand curve shifts upward and to the right, it is indicative of an increase in demand

When the demand curve shifts downward and to the left, it is indicative of an increase or decrease in demand.

An even numbered card is chosen randomly from a set of cards labeled with the numbers 1 through 8. A second even numbered card is chosen after the first card is replaced. Are these dependent or independent events?
a.
dependent
b.
independent

Answers

Answer:

independent. This is a fun question. I never thought about how I would explain it before.

Explanation:

Can you think of anything that might influence the second even card being drawn?

Let's make the question a whole lot easier. Suppose you have a coin and it's a fair one just coming from the mint. Suppose you toss it and you get either heads or tails. Can you think of a reason why you should get the same thing again or put another way, can you guess what you are going to get next?If you can't then the tosses are independent of each other. You haven't replaced anything, like once you get a tails, you weight the coin so you can never get tails again. That would be a dependent event.If you can guess consistently, you better submit a written paper to a math journal.

Now go back your your question. You replaced the card. The odds are the same as for the first toss. Is there anything that has changed your mind about being able to guess.

You can't guess, so the events are independent.

"Minimum wage laws cause unemployment because the legal minimum wage is set" 9) A) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be greater than labor supply. B) below the market wage, causing labor demand to be greater than labor supply. C) too low. D) below the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply. E) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply.

Answers

Answer: E) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply.

Explanation:

Minimum wage simply refers to the lowest wage that employers can pay their workers. Minimum wage is a form of price floor which means that it's typically higher than the equilibrium or market wage.

In this case, since it's higher than the market wage, there'll be an increase in the supply of labor as those that are unemployed will be willing to work duw to the increase in the wage rate.

On the other hand, there'll be a reduction in the demand for labor as employers typically will want to reduce cost and won't be interested in employing more workers.

Therefore, the correct option is E

Explanation:

International trade occurs when countries buy and sell between themselves. This results from one country's comparative advantage in producing a good over other countries.

As a result when a country exports a lot of goods it's currency is in high demand. This is because the other country has to buy in the home country's currency, so large volume of export means large demand for the country's currency.

It also follows that when it's imports decreases it's currency will also be in high demand since less of it is being given to buy foreign goods.

Stormy Corporation has two service departments (S1 and S2) and two production departments (P1 and P2), and uses the step-down method of cost allocation. Management has determined that S1 provides more service to the firm than S2, and has decided that the number of employees is the best allocation base to use for S1. The following data are available:
Department Number of Employees
S1 10
S2 20
P1 50
P2 70
Which of the following statements is (are) true if S1 and S2 have respective operating costs of $280,000 and $350,000?
Multiple Choice
A. S2 should allocate a portion of its $350,000 cost to S1.
B. S1's cost should be allocated (i.e., spread) over 140 employees.
C. S1's cost should be allocated (i.e., spread) over 150 employees.
D. S2 should allocate a total of $390,000 to P1 and P2.
E. Both S1's cost should be allocated (i.e., spread) over 140 employees and S2 should allocate a total of $390,000 to P1 and P2.

Answers

Answer:

E. Both S1's cost should be allocated (i.e., spread) over 140 employees and S2 should allocate a total of $390,000 to P1 and P2.

Explanation:

As S1 gives more service, So it would be allocated first

Here

S1 cost of $280,000 would be allocated to S2 P1 and P2 based on number  of employees

The total employees in S2 P1 and P2 is

= 20 + 50 + 70

= 140

And, the Cost to be allocated per employee is

= $280,000 ÷ 140

= $2,000

Now cost received by S2 is

= $2,000 × 20

= $40000

And, the cost received by P1 is

= $2,000 × 50

= $100,000

And, the cost received by P2 is

= $2,000 × $70

= $140,000

Now

S2 contains total cost of

= $350,000 + $40,000 (from S1)

= $390,000

So this would be allocated to P1 and P2 as S1 has already allocated  

Hence, option D is correct

Foods Galore is a major distributor to restaurants and other institutional food users. Foods Galore buys cereal from a manufacturer for $20.00 per case. Annual demand for cereal is 200,000 cases, and the company believes that the demand is constant at 800 cases per day for each of the 250 days per year that it is open for business. Average lead time from the supplier for replenishment orders is eight days, and the company believes that it is also constant. The purchasing agent at Foods Galore believes that annual inventory carrying cost is 10 percent and that it costs $40.00 to place an order.
How many cases of cereal should Foods Galore order each time it places an order? What is the total annual inventory cost if you order based on your Economic Order Quantity? (Sum of annual product purchasing cost, holding cost, and ordering cost). What is the total annual inventory cost if Foods Galore orders 10,000 each order at $18 per case? (Sum of annual product purchasing cost, holding cost, and ordering cost)

Answers

Answer:

The appropriate solution is:

(a) 2828 cases each time

(b) $4005656.85

(c) $3609800

Explanation:

The given values are:

Annual demand,

D = 200,000 cases

Per case cost,

C = $20

Carrying host,

H = [tex]10 \ percent\times 20[/tex]

  = $[tex]2[/tex]

Ordering cost,

S = $40

(a)

The economic order quantity will be:

⇒ [tex]Q^*=\sqrt{(\frac{2DS}{H} )}[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

         [tex]=\sqrt{[\frac{(2\times 200000\times 40)}{2} ]}[/tex]

         [tex]=\sqrt{\frac{16000000}{2} }[/tex]

         [tex]=2828[/tex]

(b)

According to the question,

The annual ordering cost will be:

=  [tex](\frac{D}{Q^*}) S[/tex]

=  [tex](\frac{200000}{2828}) 40[/tex]

=  [tex]2828.85[/tex] ($)

The annual carrying cost will be:

=  [tex](\frac{Q^*}{2})H[/tex]

=  [tex](\frac{2828}{2} )2[/tex]

=  [tex]2828[/tex] ($)

The annual purchase cost will be:

=  [tex]D\times C[/tex]

=  [tex]200000\times 20[/tex]

=  [tex]4000000[/tex] ($)

Now,

The total inventory cost will be:

=  [tex]2828.85+2828+4000000[/tex]

=  [tex]4005656.85[/tex] ($)

(c)

According to the question,

Order quantity,

Q = 10000 cases

Per case cost,

C = $18

Carrying cost,

H = [tex]10 \ percent\times 18[/tex]

   = [tex]1.8[/tex]

The annual ordering cost will be:

=  [tex](\frac{D}{Q} )S[/tex]

=  [tex](\frac{200000}{10000} )40[/tex]

=  [tex]800[/tex] ($)

The annual carrying cost will be:

=  [tex](\frac{Q}{2} )H[/tex]

=  [tex](\frac{10000}{2} )1.8[/tex]

=  [tex]9000[/tex] ($)

The annual purchase cost will be:

=  [tex]D\times C[/tex]

=  [tex]200000\times 18[/tex]

=  [tex]3600000[/tex]

Now,

The total cost of inventory will be:

=  [tex]800+9000+3600000[/tex]

=  [tex]3609800[/tex] ($)

Bluebird, Inc., does not provide its employees with any tax-exempt fringe benefits. The company is considering adopting a hospital and medical benefits insurance plan that will cost approximately $9,000 per employee. To adopt this plan, the company may have to reduce salaries and/or lower future salary increases. Bluebird is in the 25% (combined Federal and state rates) bracket. Bluebird also is responsible for matching the Social Security and Medicare taxes withheld on employees' salaries (at the full 7.65% rate). The hospital and medical benefits insurance plan will not be subject to the Social Security and Medicare taxes, and the company is not eligible for the small business credit for health insurance. The employees generally fall into two marginal tax rate (MTR) groups.

Required:
a. How much taxable compensation is the equivalent of $9,000 of exempt compensation for each of the two classes of employees?
b. What is the company’s after-tax cost of the taxable compensation computed in part (a)?
c. What is the company’s after-tax cost of the exempt compensation?
d. Briefly explain your conclusions from the preceding analysis.

Answers

Answer:

a. The Before Tax Compensation for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

Low (0.15) = $11,635.42

High (0.35) = $14,162.08

b. The Employer's after tax cost of taxable compensation for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

Low (0.15) = $9,394.15

High (0.35) = $10,775.57

c. The Employer's after tax cost of exempt benefit for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

Low (0.15) = $6,750

High (0.35) = $6,750

d. The cost in employer's after tax cost of exempt benefit will be less than employer's after tax cost of taxable compensation.

Explanation:

a. How much taxable compensation is the equivalent of $9,000 of exempt compensation for each of the two classes of employees?

Note: See part a of the attached excel file for the calculation of Before Tax Compensation for each of the two classes of employees.

From part a of the attached excel, the Before Tax Compensation for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

Low (0.15) = $11,635.42

High (0.35) = $14,162.08

b. What is the company’s after-tax cost of the taxable compensation computed in part (a)?

Note: See part b of the attached excel file for the calculation of Employer's after tax cost of taxable compensation.

From part b of the attached excel, the Employer's after tax cost of taxable compensation for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

Low (0.15) = $9,394.15

High (0.35) = $10,775.57

c. What is the company’s after-tax cost of the exempt compensation?

Note: See part c of the attached excel file for the calculation of Employer's after tax cost of exempt benefit.

From part c of the attached excel, the Employer's after tax cost of exempt benefit for each of the two classes of employees are as follows:

Low (0.15) = $6,750

High (0.35) = $6,750

d. Briefly explain your conclusions from the preceding analysis.

Comparing employer's after tax cost of exempt benefit in comparison and employer's after tax cost of taxable compensation, it can be seen that cost in employer's after tax cost of exempt benefit will be less than employer's after tax cost of taxable compensation.

Answers

Answer:

b. every firm with 50 or more full-time employees must purchase health insurance for their full-time employees or pay a $2,000 fine per employee.

Explanation:

An employee can be defined as an individual who is employed by an employer of labor to perform specific tasks, duties or functions in an organization.

Basically, an employee is saddled with the responsibility of providing specific services to the organization or company where he is currently employed while being paid a certain amount of money hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly depending on the contractual agreement between the two parties (employer and employee).

Hence, while an employer may be the owner of a business firm or company, an employee is a subordinate employed to provide unwavering services to the employer while also, being professional and diligent at all times.

The employer mandate of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) requires that every firm with 50 or more full-time employees must purchase health insurance for their full-time employees or pay a $2,000 fine per employee.

Answers

Answer:

Part 1

Purchase journal

Debit  : Merchandise Inventory $125,000

Credit : Accounts Payable $125,000

Sales journal

Debit  : Accounts Receivable $163,750

Debit  : Cost of Sales ($125,000 x 75%) $93,750

Credit : Sales Revenue $163,750

Credit : Inventory $93,750

Collection of Payments journal

Debit : Cash ($163,750 x 25%) $40,938

Credit : Accounts Receivable $40,938

Part 2

Inventory = $31,250

revenues = $163,750

expenses = $93,750

gross profit = $70,000

Explanation:

inventory = Purchases - Cost of sales

                = $125,000 - $93,750

                = $31,250

revenues = Sales to Customers paid up or not

                = $163,750

expenses = Cost of sales

                = $93,750

gross profit = Sales - Cost of sales

                   = $163,750 - $93,750

                   = $70,000

Answer:

$76,620.83

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows

Future Value (FV) = $100,000

Rate of interest = 10% yearly

Rate of interest (Rate) = 10%÷ 2 = 5% semiannually

Number of period (Nper) = 9 × 2 = 18

Face value = $100,000

Payment (pmt) = $100,000 × (6%÷2) = $3,000

By putting the value in excel present value formula, we get,

PV = $76,620.83

Explanation:

A project from a joint process should be processed further if additional sales revenue from further processing exceeds further processing cost.

So we will compare the net income i.e additional sales revenue minus sales   further processing cost  less for the three products as follows:

                                                                Net income

Product C : (100,000-75,000)-20,000 = $5,000

Determine aggregate expenditures (AE) in this economy when real GDP (Y) is equal to $1,500 billion, $2,000 billion, and $2,500 billion.
When Y = $1,500 billion, AE =
billion.
When Y = $2,000 billion, AE =
billion
When Y = $2.500 billion, AE =
billion.

Answers

Answer:

a) When Y = $1,500 billion, AE =$1050 billion

b)When Y = $2,000 billion, AE = $1400 billion

c) When Y = $2.500 billion, AE =$1750 billion

Explanation:

As we know,

Yd = Y- T

Y = national income (or GDP)

T = Tax Revenues = 0.3Y

a) When Y = $1,500 billion, AE = $1,500 -0.3*$1,500 = $1050 billion

b) When Y = $2,000 billion, AE =$2,000 - 0.3*$2,000 = $1400 billion

c) When Y = $2.500 billion, AE = $2.500 - 0.3 * $2.500 = $1750 billion

Assuming the economy to operate in equilibrium, the aggregate expenditure model explains that GDP is equal to the Aggregate expenditure. Therefore, the solutions are:

Y = $1,500 billion, AE = $1,500 billion.Y = $2,000 billion, AE = $2,000 billion.Y = $2,500 billion, AE = $2,500 billion.

What is the aggregate expenditure model?

The aggregate expenditure model explains the relationship between GDP and planned spending. The model states that:

[tex]\rm GDP = Planned \:spendings[/tex]

Therefore the Aggregate expenditure for the real GPDs is:

Y = $1,500 billion, AE = $1,500 billion.Y = $2,000 billion, AE = $2,000 billion.Y = $2,500 billion, AE = $2,500 billion.

Suppose we want to estimate the effects of alcohol consumption (alcohol) on college grade point average (cGPA). In addition to collecting information on grade point averages and alcohol usage, we also obtain attendance information (say, percentage of lectures attended, called attend). A standardized test score (say, SAT) and high school GPA (hsGPA) are also available
(i) Should we include attend along with alcohol as explanatory variables in a multiple regression model? (Think about how you would interpret beta-alcohol.)
(ii) Should SAT and hsGPA be included as explanatory variables? Explain.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

(i) Should we include attend along with alcohol as explanatory variables in a multiple regression model? (Think about how you would interpret beta-alcohol.)

No. We should not include attend along with alcohol as explanatory variables in a multiple regression model. This is due to the fact that a high degree of negative correlation exists between attend along with alcohol and including both of them will bring about multi collinearity.

(ii) Should SAT and hsGPA be included as explanatory variables? Explain.

Yes. SAT and hsGPA should be included as explanatory variables. This is important to overcome bias of the model.

When Should we include Attend along with alcohol as explanatory variables in a multiple regression model

(i) So according to me, my answer will be No. We should not include Attend along with alcohol as explanatory variables in multiple factors of the regression model. This is due to the fact that is a high degree of negative correlation exists between the attend also, along with alcohol, and including both of them will bring about multicollinearity.

(ii) When the variables  of SAT AND hsGPA my answer will be Yes. SAT and HSDPA should be included as explanatory variables. This is most important to overcome the bias of the model.

A company is considering replacing its air conditioner. They have narrowed their selection to two alternativesthat will offer considerable savings over their current system. If the effective annual interest rate is 8%,and the lifetime of the machines will be 15 years,what is the benefit cost ratio of eachmachine, and which machine should the company choose

Answers

Answer:

A. Alternative 1 1.88

Alternative 2 1.73

Incremental Analysis 1.34

B. Alternative 2

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine the benefit cost ratio of each machine,

First step is to calculate the present value of each Alternative

ALTERNATIVE 1

Calculation for alternative 1 Benefit and cost

Benefits = ($1500)(P/A, 8%, 15)

Benefits= ($1500)(8.5595)

Benefits= $12,839

Cost = $7,000 – ($500)(P/F, 8%,15)

Cost= $7,000 – ($500)(0.3152)

Cost = $6842

Now let calculate Alternative 1 Ratio of Benefit to Cost using this formula

Ratio of Benefit to Cost = Benefit/Cost

Let plug in the formula

Ratio of Benefit to Cost=$12,839/$6842

Ratio of Benefit to Cost= 1.88

Therefore the benefit cost ratio for Alternative 1 is 1.88

ALTERNATIVE 2

Calculation for alternative 2 Benefit and cost

Benefits = ($1900)(P/A, 8%,15)

Benefits= ($1900)(8.5595)

Benefits= $16,263

Cost = $9000 + ($1250)(P/F,8%,15)

Cost= $9000 + ($1250)(0.3152)

Cost=$9394

Now let calculate Alternative 1 Ratio of Benefit to Cost using this formula

Ratio of Benefit to Cost = Benefit/Cost

Let plug in the formula

Ratio of Benefit to Cost= $16,263/$9394

Ratio of Benefit to Cost = 1.73

Therefore the benefit cost ratio for Alternative 2 is 1.73

B. In order to know which machine should the company choose we have to determine the incremental analysis for each of the machine

Incremental Analysis = ($16,263- $12,839)/ ($9394 - $6842)

Incremental Analysis= 1.34

Based on the above calculation for Incremental Analysis we can see that the Incremental Analysis is greater than 1 which means that the machine that the company should choose is ALTERNATIVE 2

On July 1, 20X1, Mirage Company issued $250 million of bonds with an 8% coupon interest rate. The bonds mature in 10 years and pay interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31 of each year. The market rate of interest on July 1, 20X1, for bonds of this risk class was 8%. Mirage closes its books on December 31. Ignore income taxes.

Required:
a. At what price were the bonds issued?
b. On July 1, 2019, the market interest rate for bonds of this risk class is 6%. What is the fair value of the bonds on this date?
c. Suppose that 50% of the bonds were repurchased for cash on July 1, 2019, at the market price. What journal entry would the company make to record this partial retirement?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. At what price were the bonds issued?

The bonds were issued at $250 million since the issue price will have thesame value as the face value in this case.

b. On July 1, 2019, the market interest rate for bonds of this risk class is 6%. What is the fair value of the bonds on this date?

The fair value of the bond on this date will be:

= {$250,000,000 × 4% × [(1-1.03)^-16]0.03} + {$250,000,000 × (1/1.03)^-16}

= $281402755

c. Suppose that 50% of the bonds were repurchased for cash on July 1, 2019, at the market price. What journal entry would the company make to record this partial retirement?

The journal entry will be:

July 1 ,2019

Debit Bond payable $250,000,000/2 = $125,000,000

Debit loss on bond redemption = $140,701,378 - $125,000,000 = $15,701,378

Credit Cash $281402755 × 50% = $140,701,378
