Answer 1

Answer:

decrease

increase

structural unemployment

Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively

Establishing government-run employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies

Explanation:

If the world price of steel falls, the profits that can be earned from producing steel would fall. This would make steel-producing firms cutback on production. If they do this, they would lead less labour, so the demand for labour would fall.

The decrease in the price of steel would make purchasing steel by automobile companies cheaper. This would lead to a rise in production and as a result an increase in the demand for labour.

Structural unemployment occurs when there is a mismatch between the skills of labour and the jobs available.  Measures taken to increase information on available jobs would reduce this type of unemployment

Answer:

Newsmax Inc.

In the absence of other temporary differences, in the balance sheet one would also expect to find a:

a- Current deferred tax asset

Explanation:

When Newsmax Inc. received the subscriptions of $400,000 in advance, a deferred tax asset will arise on its balance sheet. This deferred tax asset results from the overpayment or advance payment of taxes on the $400,000 taxed because cash has been received, although, the associated costs have not been recorded. Deferred tax asset is the opposite of a deferred tax liability as the latter represents income taxes owed to the IRS, which will be settled in the coming period(s).

Answers

Answer:

A. ​Yes, the cost of taking the order is the lost​ after-tax cash flow of $163,383 from selling the machine.

Explanation:

This question is about opportunity costs. Opportunity costs are benefits lost or extra costs associate to choosing one activity or investment over another alternative.

If Jones decides to accept the special order, he will not be able to sell the machine, so he will lose the $163,383 that he could have earned by selling it (that is the opportunity cost of accepting the special order).

Preferred stock that has the right to prior periods' unpaid dividends even if they were not declared is called:

Answers

Answer:

cumulative preferred stocks

Explanation:

There are several ways in which you can classify preferred stocks, and one of the most important ones is cumulative or non-cumulative.

Cumulative preferred stocks are entitled to past dividends if by some reason they weren't paid by the corporation. E.g. last year no dividends were distributed, but this year preferred stockholders will receive two payments. Non-cumulative preferred stocks are not entitled to past dividends if they were not paid in their specific period. E.g if last year no dividends were declared, then they are lost and will not be paid in the future.  

For a country A, the GDP growth rate is 8 percent and inflation is 4 percent. If the velocity of money remains constant, what is the change in real money balances

Answers

Answer:

The change in the real money balance is 12%

Explanation:

As per gievn data

GDP growth rate = 8%

Inflation = 4%

The real money change is as follow

Equation

Delta M + Delta V = Delta P + Delta Y

Where

Delta M = Real money change = ?

Delta V = Change in velocity = 0

Delta P = Inflation rate = 4%

Delta Y = GDP growth rate = 8%

Placing values in the above equation

Delta M + 0 = 4% + 8%

Delta M = 12%

Hence the money balance will increase by 12%.

So = current index price = 2000

rm = return on market = 8%

D = dividends = $35

inserting into the formula:

2000x(1+0.08)-35

= $2125

b.

So x (1+rf)-D

rf = 3%

2000 x (1+0.03)-35

= $2025

c. yes there is an arbitrage opportunity. the investor should go into contract with an exercise price of 2125dollars then short sell asset in future and after this, buy back after at future market price. since actual future price is 2012 and price expected is 2125.

Two machines are currently in use in a process at the Dennis Kira Mfg. Co. The standards for this process are LSL = 430" and USL = .435". Machine One is currently producing with mean = 432" and standard deviation .0005". Machine Two is currently producing with mean .4315" and standard deviation .0004". Which machine has the higher capability index? Machine One has an index of ?(round your response to two decimal places)

Answer:

Machine 1 has higher capability index

Machine 1 has capability index of 1.33

Explanation:

Given the following :

Lower specification limit (LSL) = 0.430

Upper Specification Limit (USL) = 0.435

MACHINE 1:

mean = 0.432

Standard deviation(σ) = 0.0005

MACHINE 2:

mean = 0.4315

Standard deviation = 0.0004

The Process Capability Index (Cpk) :

Min[(USL - mean) /3σ, (mean - LSL) / 3σ]

FOR MACHINE 1:

MIN[(0.435 - 0.432) /3(0.0005), (0.432 - 0.430) / 3(0.0005)]

MIN[ 2. 9167, 1.3333]

Hence, Cpk of Machine 1 = 1.33

FOR MACHINE 2:

MIN[(0.435 - 0.4315) /3(0.0004), (0.4315 - 0.430) / 3(0.0004)]

MIN[ 2, 1.25]

Hence, Cpk of Machine 2 = 1.25

Machine 1 has higher capability index

Machine 1 has capability index of 1.33

The June 1 work in process inventory consisted of 5,300 units with $20,680 in materials cost and $17,320 in conversion cost. The June 1 work in process inventory was 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to conversion. During June, 37,800 units were started into production. The June 30 work in process inventory consisted of 8,600 units that were 100% complete with respect to materials and 50% complete with respect to conversion. 11. What is the cost of ending work in process inventory for conversion

Answers

Answer:

$22,145

Explanation:

First, calculate the equivalent units of production with respect to conversion costs.

Conversion Costs

Ending Work In Process (8,600 × 50%)                                          =   4,300

Completed and Transferred (34,500 × 100%)                                = 34,500

Equivalent units of production with respect to conversion costs = 38,800

Then Calculate the total Conversion Costs as follows :

Conversion cost in beginning work in process    $ 17,320

Add conversion costs added during the year :

Direct Labor                                                           $ 82,500

Overhead                                                              $100,000

Total Conversion Cost                                          $199,820

Finally, calculate the cost per equivalent unit for conversion and cost of ending work in process inventory for conversion

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units

Therefore,

Cost per equivalent unit = $199,820 ÷ 38,800

                                         = $5.15

Therefore,

Cost of ending work in process inventory for conversion = 4,300 × $5.15

                                                                                              = $22,145

Crane Company identifies three activities in its manufacturing process: machine setups, machining, and inspections. Estimated annual overhead cost for each activity is $140,000, $240,000, and $54,000, respectively. The cost driver for each activity and the estimated annual usage are number of setups 2,000, machine hours 24,000, and number of inspections 1,200. Compute the overhead rate for each activity. Machine setups $ per setup Machining $ per machine hour Inspections $ per inspection

Answers

Answer:

1. $70 per set up

2. $10 per machine hour

3. $45 per inspection

Explanation:

With regards to the above,

Compute the overhead rate for

1. Machine set ups

= Estimated annual overhead cost / Estimated annual Number of setups

Estimated annual overhead costs = $140,000

Estimated annual Number of setups = 2,000

= $140,000 / 2,000

= $70 per set up

2. Machining

= Estimated annual overhead costs / Estimated annual Machine hours

Estimated annual overhead costs = $240,000

Estimated annual Machine hours = 24,000

= $240,000 / 24,000

= $10 per machine hours

3. Inspection

= Estimated annual overhead costs / Estimated annual number of inspections

Estimated annual overhead costs = $54,000

Estimated annual number of inspections = 1,200

= $54,000 / 1,200

= $45 per inspection

Active concealment is when an information that's meant to be shared to an individual is been hidden from such individual by the other party.

In this scenario, the agent intentionally refused giving Sippy the necessary information regarding the house as some facts were hidden.

Therefore, Sippy will rely on active concealment theory.

Despite its drastic downsizing a decade ago under a federally funded bailout and bankruptcy​ restructuring, General Motors again finds itself with too many U.S. factories that can turn out too many​ vehicles. GM's factory-utilization rate in North America averaged​ 95.1% over the past two​ years, below​ Ford's 111.9% and Toyota​ 's 101.4%.​ (Rates can exceed​ 100% when factories work a 3rd shift or schedule overtime work on​ weekends.) The auto industry often runs its factories​ dawn-till-dusk or even around the clock to boost their efficiency. ​Factory-utilization rates typically measure how much production capacity a plant uses based on a​ 16-hour workday. GM says its utilization rate is​ 100% on average when its​ round-the-clock truck and SUV lines are figured in with the relatively sleepy factories making​ cars. GM said it is working to​ "drive further​ improvements" in its plant​ utilization, including adding crossover SUVs to more factory lines. A plant in the Kansas City area that now makes only the Malibu is scheduled to begin assembling a small Cadillac SUV soon. But such a​ switch-over typically takes car makers several years of lead​ time, to order and install new​ assembly-line equipment and tooling.

Answer:

The question is actually missing (see attached image):

the answer is:

D. Less than that of its competitors.

Explanation:

Personally, I believe that GM is an extremely spoiled child that refuses to assume responsibility for its continuous and never ending mistakes. GM has either filed for bankruptcy or threatened to do so twice in the last 30 years or so, and every time the US government has to bail them out. But GM keeps doing things wrong.

It doesn't matter if you like their cars or not, GM is terribly managed. No other company in US history has received so much financial aid from the government and continued to lose money and work inefficiently. The problem is that whenever things go wrong, stockholders lose their money but the executives keep getting tens of millions of dollars. If a company is managed in such a disastrous way, their top management shouldn't get paid that much.

A car factory costs a lot of money, and not using it efficiently is outrageous considering GM's history. If they had never received a cent from the government, then its only their problem. But the government lost $11.2 billion on GM's last bailout. During the 1980s GM lobbied fro the government to impose import quotas on Japanese cars because they were better cars and GM couldn't compete against them. So whenever they do things wrong, big brother has to help them. During the last couple of years GM had to sell most of its foreign operations in order to get cash, and you generally do not make money by selling your assets.

Teakap, Inc., has current assets of $1,456,312 and total assets of $4,812,369 for the year ending September 30, 2016. It also has current liabilities of $1,041,012, common equity of $1,500,000, and retained earnings of $1,468,347. What is the value of long term debt?

Answers

Answer:

$803,010

Explanation:

Calculation for the value of long term debt

First step is to find the Stockholders' equity

Stockholders' equity = $1,500,000 + $1,468,347 Stockholders' equity= $2,968,347

Last step is to find the Long-term debt

Using this formula

Value of Long-term debt= Total assets – Current liabilities – Stockholders' equity

Let plug in the formula.

Value of Long-term debt= $4,812,369 – $1,041,012 – $2,968,347

Value of Long-term debt = $803,010

Therefore the Value of Long-term debt

will be $803,010

Since Elaine files her taxes with her husband and their combined AGI is less than $160,000, then she can claim the full annual credit. The AOTC starts to phase out when the combined AGI is higher than $160,000 and phases out completed when it reaches $180,000.

Structural unemployment is sometimes said to result from a mismatch between the job skills that employers want and the job skills that workers have. To explore this idea, consider an economy with two industries: auto manufacturing and aircraft manufacturing. Assume that workers in these two industries require similar amounts of training, and they can choose which industry to train for at the beginning of their careers. True or False: Wages in the auto manufacturing industry would be less than those in the aircraft manufacturing industry.

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Due to the fact that the same amount of training is needed in each of the industries, wages would be the same. If wages were higher in the air craft industry, their would be an excess supply of labour in the airline industry. This would pull the wages in the airline industry down until the same wages are earned in both industries

Net domestic product: Net domestic product is when depreciation is subtracted from the gross domestic product.

Decision on Transfer Pricing Materials used by the Instrument Division of XPort Industries are currently purchased from outside suppliers at a cost of $185 per unit. However, the same materials are available from the Components Division. The Components Division has unused capacity and can produce the materials needed by the Instrument Division at a variable cost of $154 per unit. a. If a transfer price of $168 per unit is established and 33,200 units of materials are transferred, with no reduction in the Components Division's current sales, how much would XPort Industries’ total income from operations increase?

Answers

Answer:

$1,029,200

Explanation:

The computation of net income increases is shown below:-

Market purchase cost = 33,200 × $185

= $6,142,000

Component division variable cost = 33,200 × $154

= $5,112,800

Net income increases = $6,142,000 - $5,112,800

= $1,029,200

hence, the net income would be increased by $1,029,000 and the same is to be considered

France and England both produce wine and cloth with constant opportunity costs. France can produce 150 barrels of wine if it produces no cloth or 100 bolts of cloth if it produces no wine. England can produce 50 barrels of wine if it produces no cloth or 100 bolts of cloth if it produces no wine. We can conclude that France produces ________ units of wine and ________ units of cloth and that France consumes ________ units of wine and ________ units of cloth.

a.150; 100; 100; 100
b.150; 0; 100; 50
c.150; 0; 50; 50
d. 0; 100; 50; 50

Answers

Answer: B)150; 0; 100; 50

Explanation:

Based on the information that has been provided in the question, for France to produce a barrel of wine, it'll have an opportunity cost of:

= 100/150 = 0.67 bolts of clothes

For England to produce a barrel of wine, the opportunity cost will be:

= 150/50 = 3 bolts of clothes

Based on the explanation, France has a comparative advantage in wine making as its opportunity cost is lower than that of England.

For France to produce a bolt of cloth, the opportunity cost will be:

= 150/100 = 1.5 barrel of wine

For England to produce a bolt of cloth, the opportunity cost will be:

= 50/150 = 0.33 barrel of wine

Here, England has a comparative advantage in cloth production as its opportunity cost is lower than that of France.

Therefore, we can conclude that France produces 150 units of wine and

0 units of cloth and that France consumes 100 units of wine and 50 units of cloth.

The yield on a three-month T-bill is 4%, the yield on a 10-year T-bond is 5.36%. the market risk premium is 10.18%. and the Allen Company has a beta of 1.25. Using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) approach, Allen’s cost of equity is:_______

Answers

Answer: 18.09%

Capital Asset Pricing Model = Risk free rate + beta * Market premium

= 5.36% + 1.25 * 10.18%

= ‭0.18085‬

= 18.09%

Note: Use the yield on a 10-year T-bond as long term risk free rates take into account more volatility.
