Consider two ways to protect your car from theft. The Club is a conspicuous steering wheel lock that makes it difficult for a thief to take a car. Lojack is a secret tracking system that makes it easier for police to catch a thief who steals a car on which it is installed.
If a car thief encounters a car with the Club and a car without it, the car with the Club imposes a________externality on the car without the Club. A policy implication of this result is a______those who use the Club.
If a car thief encounters two cars without the Club, but the car thief fears a Lojack system might be installed in one of the cars, the car with the Lojack system imposes a_______externality on the other car. A policy implication of this result is a_______those who use the Lojack technology.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

According to the given situation,

The car with the club enforces on the car without the club a negative externality if a robber experiences a car with the club and a car without them. A policy implication of that result is a tax on those who use the club.

If a car thief reaches two cars even without club, however the car thief is afraid to build a lojack system in one of cars, the car with the Lojakc system forces on the other car positive externality. A resulting policy consequence is a subsidy for those who use the Lojack system.

Hayes Inc. provided the following information for the year 2015:
Beginning inventory 100 units
Units produced 750 units
Units sold 800 units
Selling price $ 150/unit
Direct materials $35/unit
Direct labor $16/unit
Variable manufacturing overhead $15/unit
Fixed manufacturing overhead $24,000/yr
Variable selling/administrative costs $8/unit
Fixed selling/administrative costs $15,500/yr
What is the unit product cost for the year using absorption costing?

Answers

Answer:

Unitary production cost= $98

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units produced 750 units

Direct materials $35/unit

Direct labor $16/unit

Variable manufacturing overhead $15/unit

Fixed manufacturing overhead $24,000/yr

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

First, we need to calculate the unitary fixed overhead:

Unitary fixed overhead= 24,000/750= $32

Unitary production cost= 35 + 16 + 15 + 32= $98

During 2009, Accent Toys Plc., which began business in October of that year, purchased 15,000 units of a toy at cost of $10 per unit in October. The toy sold well in October. In anticipation of heavy December sales, Accept purchased 7,000 additional units in November at a cost of $11 per unit. During 2009, Accent sold 18,000 units at a price of $15 per unit. Under the first in, first out (FIFO) method, what is Accent's cost of goods sold for 2009?

Answers

Answer:

$183,000

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of goods sold using the FIFO method is shown below:

= Number of units purchased × per unit + additional units purchased × per unit

= 15,000 units × $10 + 3,000 units × $11

= $150,000 + $33,000

= $183,000

Since there are 18,000 units are sold

out of which 15,000 are at $10 and the remaining 3,000 units are at $11 and the same is to be considered

Four highly similar and competitive income-producing properties located in close proximity to the subject property have sold this month. All four offer essentially the same amenities and services as the subject property. The sale prices and estimated first-year NOI for each of the comparable properties are as follows: Comparable Sale Price NOI1 A $1,450,000 $155,000 B $1,100,000 $135,400 C $1,250,000 $143,400 D $1,500,000 $169,000 Using the information provided, calculate the overall capitalization rate by direct market extraction assuming each property is equally comparable to the subject.

Answers

Answer: 11.43%

Explanation:

Capitalization rate is a real estate valuation measure that is used to compare and contrast different real estate investments.

The capitalization rate is calculated as shown below:

Capitalization rate of comparable A:

= Net operating income (NOI) / Sales price

= $ 155,000 / $ 1,450,000

= 0.1069

Capitalization rate of comparable B:

= Net operating income (NOI) / Sales price

= $ 135,400 / $ 1,100,000

= 0.1231

Capitalization rate of comparable C:

= Net operating income (NOI) / Sales price

= $ 143,400 / $ 1,250,000

= 0.1147

Capitalization rate of comparable D:

= Net operating income (NOI) / Sales price

= $ 169,000 / $ 1,500,000

= 0.1127

The overall capitalization rate will the be the average of all the 4 rates that we have calculated. This will be:

= (0.1069 + 0.1231 + 0.1147 + 0.1127) / 4

= 0.4574/4

= 0.1143 or 11.43%

Explanation:

Like many college students, Melanie applied for and got a credit card that has an annual percentage rate (APR) of 12%. The first thing she did was buy a new stereo system for $400. At the end of the month, her credit card statement said she only needed to make a minimum monthly payment of $15. Assume Melanie makes her payment when she sees her statement at the end of each month. If Melanie doesn't charge anything else and only makes the minimum monthly payments, approximately how many months would it take her to completely pay off the stereo system

Answers

Answer:

31.17 months

Explanation:

For computing the number of months required to pay off the stereo system we need to apply the NPER formula i.e be shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $400

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 12%  ÷ 12 months = 1%

PMT = $15

The formula is shown below:

= NPER(Rate;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after applying this,  the number of months is 31.17 months

There was a dispute between an automobile insurance company and its insured concerning value in the loss of a truck. The insurance policy required arbitration of disputes. Each party selected an arbitrator; then these two, when unable to agree, selected a third party as umpire. The umpire, without consulting anyone or receiving any testimony, fixed the value of the loss. If challenged, will a court set aside this award?Why or why not?

Answers

Answer: The court has no reason to set aside this award.

Explanation:

According to the facts of the case, the arbitrators for both parties were unable to decide and therefore they selected another third person which is the umpire) to help decide on the matter.

Under these circumstances, the third person who is the umpire becomes the chair and will act as a trial court. The umpire award is identical to a ruling given by the trial court and is enforced. The third party that is, the umpire isn't enforced to give any explanation or discussion before giving the award. In case the award isn't followed by any of the parties, it can be enforced by the court. The court has no reason to set aside this award.

Answer:

inelastic demand

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand (PED) measures the proportional change in quantity demanded when the price of a product or service changes:

when a 1% decrease in price, increases quantity demanded in a smaller proportion, the PED is said to be inelastic.when a 1% decrease in price, increases quantity demanded in a larger proportion, the PED is said to be elastic.when a 1% decrease in price, increases quantity demanded in the same proportion, the PED is said to be unit elastic.

In this case, the decrease in price (-2%) barely increased the quantity demanded, therefore, the PED is inelastic.

An employee receives an hourly rate of $15, with time and a half for all hours worked in excess of 40 during the week. Payroll data for the first week of the calendar year are as follows: hours worked, 46; federal income tax withheld, $110; Social security tax rate, 6%; and Medicare tax rate, 1.5%; state unemployment tax, 5.4% on the first $7,000; federal unemployment tax, 0.8% on the first $7,000. What is the net amount to be paid to the employee? If required, round your answers to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

Net pay $569.88

Explanation:

Let the gross earnings be:

$15 * 40 = $600

$15 * 1.5 * 6 = $135

$600+$135

=$735

Withheld Federal income tax = $110

Social security tax rate =0.06* $735

= $44.10

Medicare tax rate = 0.015* $735

= $11.02

Net pay $569.88

($735 - $110 - $44.10 - $11.02)

Amount to be paid to the each employee will be $569.88

Flare Co. manufactures textiles. Among Flare's 2016 manufacturing costs were the following salaries and wages: Loom operators $ 129,000 Factory foremen 54,000 Machine mechanics 39,000 What was the amount of Flare's 2016 indirect labor

Answers

Answer: $93,000

Explanation:

Flare Co. manufactures textiles. As such the direct labour should be those directly involved in the Manufacturing of these textiles and all others will be considered Indirect Labour.

Looming refers to the weaving of fabric meaning therefore that it is directly related to the Manufacturing of textiles.

Factory Foremen only supervise the activities of the factory and so are not directly involved and Machine Mechanics ensure that machines are running smoothly and so are not directly involved either.

Indirect labor for 2016 is therefore,

= Factory Foremen + Machine Mechanics

= 54,000+ 39,000

= $93,000

Percival Hygiene has $10 million invested in long-term corporate bonds. This bond portfolio's expected annual rate of return is 9%, and the annual standard deviation is 10%. Amanda Reckonwith, Percival's financial adviser, recommends that Percival consider investing in an index fund that closely tracks the Standard & Poor's 500 Index. The index has an expected return of 14%, and its standard deviation is 16%. The Treasury bill yield is 6%. A. Suppose Percival puts all his money in a combination of the index fund and Treasury bills. Can he thereby improve his expected rate of return without changing the risk of his portfolio measured as the standard deviation?B. Could Percival do even better by investing equal amounts in the corporate bond portfolio and the index fund? The correlation between the bond portfolio and the index fund is _.1.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a)We find the portfolio weights first. For a two security portfolio

[tex]sP^2 = x_1^2s_1^2 + 2x_1x_2s_1s_2r_1_2 + x_2^2s_2^2[/tex]

[tex](0.10)^2 = 0 + 0 + x_2^2(0.16)^2[/tex]

 x2 = 0.625 and x1 = 0.375

Then

rp = x1r1 + x2r2

rp = (0.375 ´ 0.06) + (0.625 ´ 0.14)

  = 0.11

 = 11.0%

Hence, he can improve the expected rate of return without any change in the risk of the portfolio.

b)

The expected return is:

rp = x1r1 + x2r2

rp = (0.5 *´ 0.09) + (0.5 ´* 0.14)

= 0.115 = 11.5%

[tex]sP^2 = x_1^2s_1^2 + 2x_1x_2s_1s_2r_1_2 + x_2^2s_2^2[/tex]

sP2 = (0.5)^2(0.10)^2 + 2*(0.5)(0.5)(0.10)(0.16)(0.10) + (0.5)^2(0.16)^2

sP2 = 0.0097

sP = 0.985 = 9.85%

Hence, he can never perform better by investing equal amount in bond portfolio and index fund. The expected return increases to 11.5% and standard deviation decreases to 9.85%.

Emerald Statuary manufactures bust statues of famous historical figures. All statues are the same size. Each unit requires the same amount of resources. The following information is from the static budget for 2017: Expected production and sales $7,000 unitsExpected selling price per unit 680Total fixed costs $1,400,000 Standard quantities, standard prices, and standard unit costs follow for direct materials and direct manu- facturing labor: Standard Quantity Standard Price Standard Unit CostDirect materials 10 pounds $ 8 per pound $ 80Direct manufacturing labor 3.7 hours $ 50 per hour $ 185 During 2017, actual number of units produced and sold was 4,800, at an average selling price of $720. Ac- tual cost of direct materials used was $392,700, based on 66,000 pounds purchased at $5.95 per pound. Direct manufacturing labor-hours actually used were 18,300, at the rate of $48 per hour. As a result, actual direct manufacturing labor costs were $878,400. Actual fixed costs were $1,170,000. There were no beginning or ending inventories.Required: 1. Calculate the sales-volume variance and flexible-budget variance for operating income. 2. Compute price and efficiency variances for direct materials and direct manufacturing labor.

Answers

Answer:

a) Sales volume variance = $1496000 unfavorable

flexible-budget variance = $192000 favorable

b) For direct materials

Price variance = `$135000 unfavorable

efficiency variances = $527920 favorable

For direct manufacturing labor

Price variance = `$36600 unfavorable

efficiency variances = $914815 favorable

Explanation:

a) Sales volume variance = (Actual units sold - Budgeted units sold) x Budgeted price per unit = (4800 - 7000) × $680 = $1496000 unfavorable

flexible-budget variance =  (Actual price - Budgeted price) x Actual units sold= ($720 - $680) × 4800 = $192000 favorable

b) For direct materials

Price variance = (Actual cost - standard cost) x Actual quantity of units purchased = ($5.95/ pound - $8/pound) × 66000 pound= `$135000 unfavorable

efficiency variances = (Actual unit - Standard unit) x Standard cost per unit = (66000 pound - 10 pound) × $8 per pound= $527920 favorable

For direct manufacturing labor

Price variance = (Actual cost - standard cost) x Actual hours = ($48/hour - $50/hour) × 18300 hours = `$36600 unfavorable

efficiency variances = (Actual hours - Standard hours) x Standard cost per hour= (18300 hour - 3.7 hour) × $50/hour = $914815 favorable

In this exercise we have to use business knowledge to calculate the variance of each of the items requested in the given text, in this way we find that:

1) Sales volume variance, we can say that is  unfavorable amd flexible-budget variance we can say that is favorable.

2) Price variance we can say that is unfavorable and efficiency variances is favorable.  For direct manufacturing labor we can say that  price variance is unfavorable and efficiency variances is favorable.

So calculating the variance for the items, we find that:

1)To calculate the variance in sales volume we will use the formula:

[tex](Actual \ units \ sold - Budgeted \ units \ sold) * (Budgeted \ price \ per\ unit )[/tex]

Replacing the values ​​informed in the text, we find that:

[tex]= (4800 - 7000) * (680) = \$1.496.000[/tex]

So the variance in sales volume is equal  to [tex]\$1.496.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is unfavorable.

To calculate the variance in flexible-budget we will use the formula:

[tex](Actual \ price - Budgeted \ price) * (Actual \ units \ sold)[/tex]

Replacing the values ​​informed in the text, we find that:

[tex]= ($720 - $680) * 4800 = \$192000[/tex]

So the variance in flexible-budget is equal  to [tex]\$192.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is favorable.

b) To calculate the variance in price variance we will use the formula:

[tex](Actual\ cost - standard\ cost) * (Actual\ quantity\ of\ units\ purchased)[/tex]

Replacing the values ​​informed in the text, we find that:

[tex]= ($5.95 - $8) * (66000)= \$135.000[/tex]

So the variance in price variance is equal  to [tex]\$135.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is unfavorable.

To calculate the variance in efficiency variances we will use the formula:

[tex](Actual \ unit - Standard \ unit) * Standard \ cost\ per\ unit[/tex]

Replacing the values ​​informed in the text, we find that:

[tex](66000 - 10 ) * $8 = \$527.920[/tex]

So the variance in efficiency variances  is equal  to [tex]\$527.000[/tex] and we can also say that it is favorable.

To calculate the variance in price variance we will use the formula:

[tex](Actual \ cost - standard \ cost) * Actual\ hours[/tex]

Replacing the values ​​informed in the text, we find that:

[tex]($48 - $50) * 18300 = \$36.600[/tex]

So the variance in price variance is equal  to [tex]\$36.600[/tex] and we can also say that it is unfavorable.

To calculate the variance in efficiency variances we will use the formula:

[tex](Actual \ hours - Standard \hours) * Standard \ cost \ per \ hour[/tex]

Replacing the values ​​informed in the text, we find that:

[tex](18300 - 3.7 ) * $50 = $914.815[/tex]

So the variance in efficiency variances  is equal  to [tex]\$914.815[/tex] and we can also say that it is favorable.

Winners and losers from tariff reductions Suppose that Canada imports pearl necklaces from India. The free market price is $80.00 per necklace. If the tariff on imports in Canada is initially 8%, Canadians pay $________ per necklace. One of the accomplishments of the Uruguay Round that took place between 1986 and 1993 was significant across-the-board tariff cuts for industrial countries, as well as many developing countries. Suppose that as a result of the Uruguay Round, Canada reduces its import tariffs to 4%. Assuming the price of pearl necklaces is still $______ per necklace, consumers now pay the price of per necklace. in Canada_______ and Based on the calculations and the scenarios presented, the Uruguay Round most likely in India

Answers

Answer:

a. $86.40 per necklace

b. $86.40 per necklace

c. $83.20 per necklace

Explanation:

free market price pf necklace is $80.00

Initial tariff on import = 8%

8% of $80.000 = 0.08 x $80.00 = $6.40

Canadians will therefore pay $80.00 + $6.40 = $86.40 per necklace

If tariff is reduced to 4%,

4% of $80.00 = 0.04 x $80.00 = $3.20

new price per necklace = $80.00 + $3.20 = $83.20 per necklace

Orwell building supplies' last dividend was $1.75. Its dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 19.00% for 2 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6% forever. Its required return (rs) is 12%. What is the best estimate of the current stock price

Answers

Answer:

$38.74

Explanation:

Div₀ = $1.75

Div₁ = $2.0825

Div₂ = $2.4782

Div₃ = $2.6269 and grow at a 6% constant rate forever

required rate of return = 12%

using growing perpetuity formula to determine the terminal value of the stock in year 2 = $2.6269 / (12% - 6%) = $43.78

the stock's current price = $2.0825/1.12 + $2.4782/1.12² + $43.78/1.12² = $1.86 + $1.98 + $34.90 = $38.74

A stockbroker predicts whether a stock will go up or down by tossing a coin and so has a 50% chance of making a correct prediction. Another broker, who is skilled, has a 60% chance of making a correct prediction. You don’t know which broker is which, so you watch their predictions for three days. Each broker gets all three predictions correct. What are the relevant probabilities? How do you decide who is the skilled broker? Search entries or author

Answers

Answer:

A skilled  broker will be right at  60% of time compared to 50%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Now,

Let X  be represented as = number of correct predictions/outcomes

X foll binomial distribution with n = 3 and p = 0.5 for broker who use a toss coin

Thus,

P(X = 3) = p^3 = 0.5^3 which gives us  = 0.125

So,

For a skilled broker, Y goes with the binomial distribution with n = 3 and p is = 0.6

Then,

P(Y = 3) = 0.6^3 = 0.216

We can therefore conclude who is skilled broker by making large number of observations

Hence, we say that a skilled broker will be correct 60% of time compared to 50% .

Jimmy Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The ending work in process inventory consists of 9,000 units. The ending work in process inventory is 100% complete with respect to materials and 70% complete with respect to labor and overhead. If the cost per equivalent unit for the period is $3.75 for material and $1.25 for labor and overhead, what is the balance of the ending work in process inventory account? Select one: a. $41,625 b. $33,750 c. $45,000 d. $31,500

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The ending work in process inventory consists of 9,000 units.

The ending work in process inventory is 100% complete for materials and 70% complete for labor and overhead.

The cost per equivalent unit for the period is $3.75 for material and $1.25.

First, we need to calculate the ending inventory in units for equivalent units:

Direct material= 9,000*1= 9,000 units

Conversion costs= 9,000*0.7= 6,300

Now, the cost of ending inventory:

Direct material= 9,000*3.75= 33,750

Conversion costs= 6,300*1.25= 7,875

Total cost= $41,625

Inventory, often known as stock, refers to the items and materials that a company keeps on hand with the intention of reselling, producing, or using them. Inventory management is largely concerned with defining the shape and location of stocked products.

The correct answer is A.  $41,625  

The ending work in process inventory consists of 9,000 units.

The ending work in process inventory is 100% complete for materials and 70% complete for labor and overhead.

The cost per equivalent unit for the period is $3.75 for material and $1.25.

Calculation of the ending inventory:

Direct material= [tex]9,000\times1[/tex]= 9,000 units

Conversion costs=[tex]9,000\times0.7[/tex]= 6,300

Now, the cost of ending inventory:

Direct material= [tex]9,000\times3.75[/tex]= 33,750

Conversion costs= [tex]6,300\times1.25[/tex]= 7,875

Total cost= $41,625

Answers

Answer:

B. is not liable because Mike was on a frolic of his own.

Explanation:

Mike who is a dispatch rider, decided to see his girlfriend, Jackie, who lived 50 miles off his pizza route. He had an accident while driving to his girlfriend's, and injured a pedestrian, Chuck due to his negligent driving.

Under the circumstances, Frank's Pizza isn't liable because Mike was on a frolic of his own. Mike embarking on a 50 mile drive to see his girlfriend is frolicsome and outside the scope of his employment as a delivery agent.

Hence, this will absolve his employer from any liability as he wasn't working on the designated route at the time.

The change in accounts receivable turnover from year 1 to year 2 indicates a(n) a(n) days days in the efficiency of collecting accounts receivable and is___________ change. The change in the days' sales in receivables indicates a _________ change

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Account receivable turnover ratio is  

= Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable  

where,  

the Average accounts receivable would be  

= (Accounts receivable, beginning of year + Accounts receivable, end of year) ÷ 2  

For year 2

= ($3,522) ÷  ($81 + $68) ÷ 2  

= 47.3 times

For year 1

= ($3,283) ÷  ($68 + $74) ÷ 2  

= 46.2 times

b. The days sales in receivables is

= 365 days ÷ account receivable turnover ratio

For year 2

= 365 days ÷ 47.3 times

= 7.7 days

For year 1

= 365 days ÷ 46.2 times

= 7.9 days

c. As we can see that the change in accounts receivable turnover from year 1 to year 2 i.e from 46.2 times to 47.3 times is favorable change and it is increasing and the change in days sales in receivables from year 1 to year 2 i.e from 7.9 days to 7.7 days indicates a favorable change
