Answer:
The question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:
You borrow $900 from your bank for 3 months. The loan agreement states that you must repay the loan at a rate of $300 per month plus interest. The interest rate for the loan is 2 % above the prime interest rate. During the first month the prime rate is 4.45% during the second month it is 5.25% and during the third month it is 5.% What is the total amount of interest you pay on the loan?
the first monthly payment = $300 + ($900 x 6.45% x 1/12) = $304.84
interest payments = $4.84
the second monthly payment = $300 + ($600 x 7.25% x 1/12) = $303.63
interest payments = $3.63
the third monthly payment = $300 + ($300 x 7% x 1/12) = $301.75
interest payments = $1.75
Stranahan Company allocates overhead based on machine hours. Estimated overhead costs for the year total $217,000 and the company estimates that it will use 31,000 machine hours during the year. Actual overhead for the year was $220,000 and the company used 30,000 machine hours. If Job 45 requires 1,000 machine hours, how much overhead will be allocated to Job 45?
a) $7,097
b) $7,333
c) $7,233
d) $7,000
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $7,000
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= 217,000 / 31,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $7 per machine hour
Job 45:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 7*1,000
Allocated MOH= $7,000
Ken went shopping with only $160 on him. He wants to buy a new pair of sneakers and a pair of designer pants. Each item costs exactly $160, so he can only purchase one of the two. This scenario directly illustrates the basic concept that:________
1) most consumers are self-interested
2) society can produce more output when workers "specialize" in production
3) irrational people never respond to incentives
4) when resources are scarce, people face tradeoffs
Answer:
4) when resources are scarce, people face tradeoffs
Explanation:
All resources are scarce, but some are more scarce than others. For example, the day of the richest or poorest person in the world last exactly the same, 24 hours. You cannot buy more time per day. Even the richest person in the world has a limited amount of money, he/she cannot own all the money in the world. Some countries are rich in natural resources, but do not have capital. This leads to the concept of opportunity costs, which are the benefits lost or extra costs associated with choosing one alternative action or investment over another one. If Ken buys the new pair of sneakers, his opportunity cost is the pair of designer pants.

QUESTION 9 of 10: You bid $111 per room per night for 40 guests for one night. The meeting planner says you've got the business If you
can come down 10% on the bid. What new total bld will win the business?
Answer:
$3,996.00
Explanation:
The current bid represents 100%. the total for this bid is below
=$111 x 40 rooms
=$4,440.00
The new bid should be 10% less than the original bid. in other words, the new bid is 90% of the original bid
=90% of $4,440.00
=90/100 x $4,440.00
=0.9 x $4,440
=$3,996.00
Yekutia has the resources to manufacture 320 motorcycles or 570 lawn-mowers per year. The country of Bezanitia, has the capability of producing 230 motorcycles or 410 lawn-mowers per year. Which country has the largest opportunity cost to produce one more motorcycle and what is the opportunity cost to that country?
Answer:
Bezanitia,
1.782609
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone hen one alternative is chosen over another alternative.
By choosing to produce one more motorcycle, the countries would be giving up the opportunity to produce one more unit of lawn mowers
Yekutia's opportunity cost in the production of motor cycle = 570 / 320 = 1.781250
Bezanitia's opportunity cost in the production of motor cycle = 410 / 230 = 1.782609
Review the transactions and determine the accounts, the account types (use assets, liabilities, equity, dividends, revenue, and expenses), if they increase/decrease and if they are DR/CR.
Assets Liabilities
Beginning of the year: $27,000 $16,000
End of Year: $61,000 $25,000
1) What is the equity at the beginning of the year?
2) What is the equity at the end of the year?
3) If the company issues common stock of $5,300 and pay dividends of $44,200, how much is net income (loss)?
4) If net income is $3,800 and dividends are $6,600, how much is common stock?
5) If the company issues common stock of $16,500 and net income is $18,700, how much is dividends?
6) If the company issues common stock of $42,900 and pay dividends of $3,100, how much is net income (loss)?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1.
Beginning Equity = Beginning Assets – Beginning Liabilities
= $27,000 - $16,000
= $11,000
2.
Ending Equity = Ending Assets – Ending Liabilities
= $61,000 - $25,000
= $36,000
3.
Increase in Equity = Ending Equity – Beginning Equity
= $36,000 - 11,000
= $25,000
Now
Increase in Equity = Issue of Common Stock + Net Income - Dividend
$25,000 = $5,300 + Net Income - $44,200
Net Income = $63,900
4.
Increase in Equity = Issue of Common Stock + Net Income - Dividend
$25,000 = Issue of Common Stock + $3,800 - $6,600
Issue of Common Stock = $27,800
5.
Increase in Equity = Issue of Common Stock + Net Income – Dividend
$25,000 = $17,200 + $19,600 - Dividend
Dividend = $11,800
6.
Increase in Equity = Issue of Common Stock + Net Income – Dividend
$25,000 = $42,900 + Net Income - $3,100
Net Income (loss) = -$14,800
Suppose the following information was taken from the 2022 financial statements of pharmaceutical giant Merck and Co. (All dollar amounts are in millions.) Retained earnings, January 1, 2022 $46,600.0 Cost of goods sold 8,900.0 Selling and administrative expenses 8,100.0 Dividends 4,000.0 Sales revenue 35,800.0 Research and development expense 5,500.0 Income tax expense 2,300.0 After analyzing the data, prepare an income statement for the year ending December 31, 2022.
Answer and Explanation:
The preparation of the income statement is presented below:
Revenue:
Sales $35,800
Less: Expenses:
Cost of Goods Sold -$8,900
Selling & Adm. Exp. -$8,100
Research & Dev. Exp. -$5,500
Income Tax -$2,300
Net Income $11,000
We simply deduct all the expenses from the revenue so that the net income could arrive
stock sells for $100 rights-on, and the subscription price is $90. Ten rights are required to purchase one share. Tomorrow the stock of Tricki will go ex-rights. What is Tricki’s expected price when it begins trading ex-rights?
Answer:
$99.09
Explanation:
Calculation for What is Tricki's expected price when it begins trading ex-rights
Using this formula
Expected price=Stock rights-on- [ (Stock rights-on-Subscription price)÷(10 rights+ One share)]
Let plug in the formula
Expected price=$100-[($100-$90)÷(10+1)]
Expected price=$100-($10÷11)
Expected price=$100-$0.91
Expected price=$99.09
Therefore Tricki's expected price when it begins trading ex-rights will be $99.09
You have graduated from college but unfortunately have $39,000 in outstanding loans. The loans require payments of $3,435 per year, which covers interest and principal repayment (that is, the loan has the same basic features as a mortgage). If the interest rate is 4 percent, how long will it take you to repay the debt
Answer:
15.44 years
Explanation:
Using both excel rate function and financial calculator, the time taken to repay the debt can be computed thus:
Excel rate function:
=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)
rate= interest rate=4%
pmt=yearly payment=c
pv=loan oustanding=-39000
fv=the balance after all payments should be zero=0
=nper(4%,3435,-39000,0)= 15.44 years
Financial calculate
PMT= 3435
RATE=4
PV=-39000
FV=0
CPT N=15.44 years
This means a payment of $3,435 per year for 15 years and $ 1,511.40 ($3,435*0.44) in the sixteenth year
Suppose the United States is currently producing 100tons of hamburgers and 45tons of tacos and Mexico is currently producing 20tons of hamburgers and 25tons of tacos. If the United States and Mexico each specialize in producing only one good (the good for which each has a comparative advantage), then a total of nothingadditional ton(s) of hamburgers can be produced for the two countries combined (enter a numeric response using an integer)
Answer: 50 additional tons of hamburgers
Explanation:
United States opportunity costs:
Hamburger opportunity cost = 45/100 = 0.45 tons of tacos
Taco opportunity cost = 100/45 = 2.22 tones of hamburgers
Mexico opportunity cost:
Hamburger opportunity cost = 25/20 = 1.25 tons of tacos
Taco opportunity cost = 20/25 = 0.8 tones of hamburgers
US should specialize in Hamburger production because they have a lower opportunity cost.
If both countries combined production of hamburgers then the total would be:
= 100 + 20
= 120 tons of hamburgers
There is missing information on this question which is the US production of hamburgers when it produces 0 tacos. We shall assume that number to be 170 tons of hamburgers.
The total additional tons produced would be:
= US tons when producing only hamburgers - Combined hamburger production
= 170 - 120
= 50 additional tons of hamburgers

Emily bought 200 shares of ABC Co. stock for $29.00 per share on 60% margin. Assume she holds the stock for one year and that her interest costs will be $80 over the holding period. Ignoring commissions, what is her percentage return (loss) on invested capital if the stock price went down 10%
Answer:
-19%
Explanation:
Emily 200 shares at $29. So, cost of shares = 200 * $29 = $5,800
Margin is 60%. So, cash investment = $5,800 * 60% = $3,480
Stock price went down by 10%. So selling price of stock = $29 x 90% = $26.10
Sale value of stock = 200 * $26.10
Sale value of stock = $5,220
Gross profit / (Loss) = Sale value - Cost
Gross profit / (Loss) = $5,220 - $5,800
Gross profit / (Loss) = ($580)
Net loss = Gross profit / (loss) - Interest cost
Net loss = (580) - 80
Net loss = ($660)
% of loss on cash investment = (Loss / Investment) * 100
% of loss on cash investment = (-$660/$3,480) x 100
% of loss on cash investment = -18.97%
% of loss on cash investment = -19%

Shum Manufacturing, which uses the high-low method, makes a product called Kwan. The company incurs three different cost types (A, B, and C) and has a relevant range of operation between 2,500 units and 10,000 units per month. Per-unit costs at two different activity levels for each cost type are presented below. Type A Type B Type C Total 5,000 units $ 4 $ 9 $ 4 $ 17 7,500 units 4 6 3 13 If Shum produces 10,000 units, the total cost would be: Multiple Choice $90,000. $100,000. $110,000. $125,000. None of the answers is correct.
Answer:
$110,000
Explanation:
Variable cost is determined by high-low method:
Type A = $50,000
Type B = 0
Fixed cost determined using high low method is:
Type A = 0
Type B = $60,000
The total cost of high low method is $110,000.
Radek Company estimates its uncollectible accounts by aging its accounts receivable and applying percentages to various aged categories of accounts. Radek computes a total of $3,200 in estimated uncollectible accounts as of its current year-end. Its accounts receivable has a balance of $73,000, and its allowance for uncollectible accounts has an unused balance of $900 before any year-end adjustments. What amount of bad debts expense will Radek Company report in its income statement for the current year
Answer:
the bad debt expense that reported in the income statement is $2,300
Explanation:
The computation of the bad debt expense that reported in the income statement is as follows;
= Total estimated uncollectible accounts - unused balance
= $3,200 - $900
= $2,300
Hence, the bad debt expense that reported in the income statement is $2,300

Assets = $107,200
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cash Account
Common stock $89,000
Furniture (32,000)
Equipment (40,000)
Salaries (12,000)
Wages (21,000)
Raw materials (26,000)
Sales 72,000
Cash balance $30,000
Inventory:
Cost = $26,000
Units produced = 10,000 units
Cost per unit = $2.60 ($26,000/10,000)
Cost of goods sold = 8,000 * $2.60 = $20,800
Ending inventory = 2,000 * $2.60 = $5,200
Sales Revenue = 8,000 * $9 = $72,000
Assets:
Cash $30,000
Ending inventory 5,200
Furniture 32,000
Equipment 40,000

Suppose that a task in a project has the following time estimates: to optimistic completion time 11 weeks tm most likely completion time 14 weeks tp pessimistic completion time 23 weeks Compute the expected task variance. The task expected task variance is weeks. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)
Answer:
6 weeks
Explanation:
Optimistic Completion Time - 11 weeks
Most likely completion time - 14 weeks
Pessimistic completion time - 23 weeks
Compute the expected task variance in weeks. Recall that Variance is a measure of dispersion - a measure that shows the distance or spread between or among values of a variable.
Expected Variance is the average of the variance values.
First,
the variance between optimistic CT and most likely CT is (14 - 11) = 3 weeks
Second,
the variance between pessimistic CT and most likely CT is (23 - 14) = 9 weeks
The expected variance is the average of these two values and that's (3 + 9)/2 = 12/2 = 6 weeks
So the expected variance from the mean completion time of 14 weeks is 6 weeks before or 6 weeks after. This accommodates both the optimist and the pessimist.
I run a customer service center and I can use either customer representative (L) or an automated system (K) to service complaints. A customer representative can service 8 customers in an hour satisfactorily, whereas the automated system can only service 4 customers in an hour. If Q represents the number of customers serviced in an hour, my production function is a perfect complement production function. True False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
A production function shows the level of output of a production process from a given number of inputs.
So it shows the number of output from a combination of inputs used. Usually capital and labour are used as the input variables.
In the given scenario if we consider the marginal products of L and K
MP of L = 8
MP of K = 4
Since marginal products are constant quantity produced will be a liners function in the form
Q = 8L + 4K
This form of production function where the inputs shows they are perfect substitutes.
They can be substituted for each other at a constant rate.
A complement will need fixed proportions of the inputs and that is not the case here.
Gerken Company concluded at the beginning of 2021 that the company's ownership interest in DillCo had increased to the point that it became appropriate to begin using the equity method to account for the investment. The balance in the investment account is $62,000 at the time of the change, and accountants working with company records determined that the balance would have been $99,000 if the account had been adjusted for investee net income and dividends as prescribed by the equity method. After implementing the change to the equity method, if financial statements were prepared:________
a. Net income and retained earnings will be higher by $85,000.
b. The accounts will be unchanged, because no adjustment is necessary.
c. Net income and retained earnings will be higher by $15,000.
d. Net income will be unchanged, and retained earnings will be higher by $15,000.
Answer: Net income will be unchanged, and retained earnings will be higher by $37,000.
Explanation:
If using the equity method, the value of the investment in DillCo would be adjusted for DillCo net income and dividends.
Gerken Net income will not be affected but retained earnings will be because it is equity and needs to be adjusted for the investee net income.
The adjustment will be:
= 99,000 - 62,000
= $37,000
The Retained earnings will be higher by $37,000.
These options are not for this variant of the question.

Concerned by recent negative trends in economic indicators such as the consumer price index, gross domestic product, and inflation, the marketing manager of Kevin's Kayaks recommends that the company reduce its advertising spending. His recommendation is based on ________ data.
Answer:
Macroeconomics.
Explanation:
Economics can be classified into two (2) main categories, namely;
1. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets. Simply stated, it focuses on analyzing or evaluating the decisions of consumers (buyers) and those of firms (sellers) such as methods of production, pricing; and the manner in which government policies affect those decisions.
2. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Therefore, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.
In this scenario, concerned by recent negative trends in economic indicators such as the consumer price index, gross domestic product, and inflation, the marketing manager of Kevin's Kayaks recommends that the company reduce its advertising spending. Thus, his recommendation is based on macroeconomics data.
This ultimately implies that, macroeconomic is a form of externality that typically affects the levels of inflation, unemployment, consumer price index, or growth in the economy as a whole (GDP).
Youngston Company (a Massachusetts employer) wants to give a holiday bonus check of $750 to each employee.

Besides being subject to social security taxes and federal income tax (supplemental rate), a 5.05% Massachusetts income tax must be withheld on supplemental payments.
Answer:
Gross bonus=$1,148.54
FIT=252.68
OASDI=71.21
HI =16.65
MASS. TAX=58.00
Explanation:
Calculation for the withholding taxes and the gross amount of the bonus
Calculation for gross amount of the bonus
Gross amount of the bonus= [$750/ (1- 0.22 - 0.062 - 0.0145 - 0.0505] - 0.01
Gross amount of the bonus= [$750/ (0.78 - 0.062 - 0.0145 - 0.0505] - 0.01
Gross amount of the bonus= [$750/ 0.653] - 0.01
Gross amount of the bonus=1,148.545-0.01
Gross amount of the bonus=$ 1,148.54
Therefore the Gross amount of the bonus will be $ 1,148.54
Calculation for the withholding taxes
FIT =1148.54 * 22%
FIT=252.68
OASDI= 1148.54 * 6.2%
OASDI=71.21
HI=1148.54 * 1.45%
HI =16.65
MASS. TAX =1148.54 * 5.05%
MASS. TAX =58.00
NET 750.00
[$1,148.54-(252.68+71.21+16.65+58.00)]
Therefore the withholding taxes are:
FIT=252.68
OASDI=71.21
HI =16.65
MASS. TAX = =58.00
