Answer: $6,500
Explanation:
Given that,
Quantities of apples in 2008 = 500
Quantities of apples in 2009 = 500
Quantities of apples in 2010 = 550
Quantities of computer in 2008 = 5
Quantities of computer in 2009 = 5
Quantities of computer in 2010 = 6
Prices of apple per kilo:
In 2008 = 1
In 2009 = 2
In 2010 = 3
Prices of computers:
In 2008 = 900
In 2009 = 1000
In 2010 = 1000
Real GDP in 2010 prices for year 2008:
= (Quantities of apple in 2008 × price of apple in 2010) + (Quantities of computers in 2008 × price of computers in 2010)
= (500 × $3) + (5 × $1000)
= $1,500 + $5,000
= $6,500
Trade diversion happens when... Instead of importing from most efficient country, a Country import goods from nation within a Preferential Trade Agreement, with higher production costs Instead of importing from most efficient country within a Preferential Trade Agreement, a Country imports from the World's most efficient producer, violating the agreement A Country imports the same good from several different Countries, instead of focusing on one or few Countries alone A Country exports the same good from several different Countries, instead of focusing on one or few Countries alone
Answer: Option (A) is correct.
Explanation:
There are two terms in international economics; Trade creation and Trade diversion.
When some countries engaged in a particular economic integration then they have to agree upon various tariff rates. Trade diversion means that an economic integration or a free trade area diverts the trade from the most productive or efficient producer outside the economic integration towards the less productive or efficient producer inside the free trade area.
Types of economic integration:
(1) Preferential trade agreement
(2) Free trade agreement
(3) Custom unions
(4) Common Market
(5) Economic Union
LeBlanc Company had the following department data:Physical UnitsWork in process, July 1 18,000Completed and transferred out 81,000Work in process, July 31 27,000Materials are added at the beginning of the process. What is the total number ofequivalent units for materials in July?
Answer:
FIFO 90,000
W/A 108,000
Explanation:
There are two method for process costying FIFO and Weighted Average (WA) as there is no indication we will do both:
The difference is that FIFO discriminate bwetween started and completed units and completed units. therefore, the complete beginning inventory is subtracted.
As the materials are added at the beginning of the period then both, beginning and ending are at 100%
completed units 81,000
ending WIP 27,000
beginning WIP (18,000)
equivalent units FIFO 90,000
complete units 81,000
ending WIP 27,000
equivalent untis Weighted average 108,000
The total number of equivalent units for materials in July is 108,000 units.
To determine the total number of equivalent units for materials in July for LeBlanc Company, we need to consider the process described in the given data. Here's a step-by-step method to calculate it:
Physical Units Calculation: Before Conversion
Units in Work in Process, July 1: 18,000 units
Units Completed and Transferred Out: 81,000 units
Units in Work in Process, July 31: 27,000 units
Materials Addition
Since materials are added at the beginning of the process, all units in work in process at the end of the period (July 31) will have 100% of the materials added.
Total Equivalent Units for Materials
To find the total equivalent units for materials, we add the units completed during the month to the units in the ending work in process (WIP), because they all have materials added:
{Total Equivalent Units for Materials} ={Units Completed and Transferred Out} + {Ending WIP}
{Total Equivalent Units for Materials} = 81,000 { units} + 27,000{ units}
Therefore, the total number of equivalent units for materials in July is 108,000 units.

Algonquin Cosmetics noticed that while India had a population of more than 1.2 billion people, the retail market was such that more than 95% of retail was through stand-alone stores that were not part of a chain. In other words, if Algonquin were to enter India, they would have to sell through more than a million independent retail stores. What kind of a retail system does India have for the products that Algonquin Cosmetics is trying to sell?
Answer:
Fragmented retail system.
Explanation:
India presents a fragmented retail system.
This type of system works when there are many retailers, but none of them has a majority share of the market. In this country, the best distribution strategy is a long channel, since this type of market tends to promote the growth of wholesalers to provide retailers.

Your firm has a credit rating of A. You notice that the credit spread for five-year maturity A debt is 85 basis points (0.85%). Your firm’s five-year debt has a coupon rate of 6%. You see that new five-year Treasury notes are being issued at par with a coupon rate of 2.0%. What should the price of your outstanding five-year bonds be per $100 of face value?
Answer:
The market price should be: $114.67
Explanation:
the risk free rate is 2.00%
this firm has a spread of 0.85%
firm cost of debt 2.85%
The market will adjust the bond price so the yield ofthe bonds relfect this rate.
So we will calculate the present value of a coupon 100 with a 6% rate
We use the ordinary annuity for the coupon payment:
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
Coupon payment: 100 face value x 3% bond rate = 3
time 10 (5 years with 2 payment per year)
market rate: 0.01425 (2.85%/2)
[tex]3 \times \frac{1-(1+0.01425)^{-10} }{0.01425} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $27.7768
and lump sum present value for the maturity:
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 100
time 5
rate 0.0285
[tex]\frac{100}{(1 + 0.0285)^{5} } = PV[/tex]
PV 86.89
Last, we add them to get the market price:
PV c $27.7768
PV m $86.8917
Total $114.6685
Final answer:
To calculate the price of the firm's outstanding five-year bonds per $100 of face value, one must discount the bond's cash flows by the total yield required by investors, which is the sum of the Treasury yield and the firm's credit spread. This approach reflects the impact of interest rate changes on bond prices, with bonds trading at discounts or premiums depending on the prevailing interest rate environment.
Explanation:
The student is asking how to determine the price of their firm's outstanding five-year bonds given the coupon rate, the credit spread, and the current Treasury note rate. To calculate the price of the bonds, you need to consider the total yield that investors would require to hold the firm's bond instead of a risk-free Treasury bond. The total yield would be the Treasury yield plus the credit spread, which in this case would be 2.0% (from the Treasury note) plus 0.85% (the credit spread), resulting in a total yield of 2.85%. Using this yield to discount the firm's bond coupon payments and the face value payment at maturity will give you the present value, or price, of the outstanding bonds per $100 of face value.
Calculating Bond Prices
Let's look at an example to illustrate how bond prices are affected by changes in interest rates. Assume an investor holds a two-year bond that was issued for $3,000 at an 8% interest rate. This bond pays $240 in interest annually. If the discount rate reflects the current interest rate environment at 8%, then the present value of these payments equals the face value of the bond, because the coupon rate matches the discount rate. In this scenario, the bond would be worth its face value, or $3,000. However, if interest rates rise and the new discount rate is 11%, the present value of the bond's future payments would be lower than the face value, because investors can get a higher return elsewhere. Therefore, the bond would trade at a discount to reflect the higher market interest rates.
Using a financial calculator or present value formula would allow you to calculate the precise price of the bond under different interest rate scenarios, taking into account the time value of money and the structure of cash flows from the bond.
The accountant for Healthy Life Company, a medical services consulting firm, mistakenly omitted adjusting entries for (a) unearned revenue earned during the year ($34,900) and (b) accrued wages ($12,770). If the net income for the current year had been $196,400, what would have been the correct net income if the proper adjusting entries had been made?
Answer:
The correct net income is $218,530
Explanation:
The computation of the correct net income is shown below:
= Current year net income + unearned revenue earned - accrued wages
= $196,400 + $34,900 - $12,770
= $218,530
The unearned revenue earned should be added in the net income whereas the accrued wages is an expense which should be deducted in the net income

Consider the following marginal cost function. a. Find the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 100 units to 150 units. b. Find the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 500 units to 550 units. C′(x)=4000−0.4x
Answer: (a) $197,500
(b) $ 189,500
Explanation:
Given : The marginal cost function : [tex]C′(x)=4000−0.4x[/tex]
To find the cost function, we need to integrate the above function with respect to x.
Now, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 100 units to 150 units will be:-
[tex]\int^{150}_{100}\ C'(x)\ dx\\\\=\int^{150}_{100} (4000-0.4x)\ dx\\\\=[4000x-\dfrac{0.4x^2}{2}]^{150}_{100}\\\\=[4000(150)-\dfrac{0.4(150)^2}{2}-4000(100)+\dfrac{0.4(100)^2}{2}]\\\\=[600000-4500-400000+2000]\\\\=197500[/tex]
Hence, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 100 units to 150 units= $197,500
Similarly, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 500 units to 550 units :-
[tex]\int^{550}_{500}\ C'(x)\ dx\\\\=\int^{550}_{500} (4000-0.4x)\ dx\\\\=[4000x-\dfrac{0.4x^2}{2}]^{550}_{500}\\\\=[4000(550)-\dfrac{0.4(550)^2}{2}-4000(500)+\dfrac{0.4(500)^2}{2}]\\\\=[2200000-60500-2000000+50000]\\\\=189,500[/tex]
Hence, the additional cost incurred in dollars when production is increased from 500 units to 550 units = $ 189,500
Calculate additional costs for production level changes using the given marginal cost function.
Explanation:Marginal cost function: C′(x) = 4000 − 0.4x
Additional cost for 100 to 150 units: C'(150) - C'(100)Substitute values and calculate: $ (4000 - 0.4*150) - (4000 - 0.4*100)Answer: The additional cost is $20Additional cost for 500 to 550 units: C'(550) - C'(500)Substitute values and calculate: $ (4000 - 0.4*550) - (4000 - 0.4*500)Answer: The additional cost is $20Kant Miss Company is promising its investors that it will double their money every 3 years. What annual rate is Kant Miss promising? Is this investment a good deal? If you invest $300 now and Kant Miss is able to deliver on its promise, how long will it take your investment to reach $26 comma 000?
Answer:
Intructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Kant Miss Company is promising its investors that it will double their money every 3 years.
A) According to the rule of 70, an investment will duplicate in X number of years using the following formula:
N= 70/ interest rate
In this exercise:
3=70/i
i=70/3= 23.33%
B) If this is a good deal or not will depend on the interest rate and risk that you are willing to accept.
C) To find how many years it will take to reach to $26000 we need to use the following formula:
n=[ln(FV/PV)]/ln(1+r)
ln= natural logarithm
FV= Final value
PV= present value
r= interest rate
n=[ln(26000/300)]/ln(1+0,23333)
n= 21,55 years.
The Kant Miss Company is promising an implied annual rate of approximately 25.9%. Whether this is a good investment would depend on various factors. It would take about 20.3 years for an investment of $300 to reach $26,000 at this rate.
Explanation:The Kant Miss Company is offering to double investors' money every 3 years, meaning it's implying an interest rate that can achieve this. To find this rate, we can use the formula of compound interest: A = P(1+r/n)^(nt), where A is the final amount, P is the principal amount, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is time in years. In this case, A/P = 2 (doubling), n = 1(compounding annually), and t = 3 years.
As such, 2 = (1 + r) ^ 3. Solving it using a cube root function, we get (1+r) = 2^(1/3) = 1.259. Hence, r = 1.259-1 = 0.259 or 25.9% as the implied annual rate.
Whether this is a good deal or not depends on the risk tolerance of the investor and the viability of the company. Hardly any secure investment yields a 25.9% annual return, so it might carry significant risk.
Regarding how long it would take for a $300 investment to reach $26,000:
we can set up and solve the same compound interest equation, letting P = $300, A = $26,000, r = 0.259, and solve for t. Using a logarithmic function, it will take approximately 20.3 years to reach your investment goal.

A balance sheet is an accounting tool that lists a company's assets and liabilities. Shareholders' equity is the residual interest in the assets of a company after deducting liabilities. Sophie's Sofas has shareholders' equity of $185,000. The firm's net income is $2,000 and its revenues are $10,000. The firm's EBIT is also $2,000.
Explanation:A balance sheet is an accounting tool that lists a company's assets and liabilities. Assets are things of value that a company owns, such as cash, inventory, and property. Liabilities are debts or obligations, such as accounts payable and long-term debt.
Shareholders' equity is the residual interest in the assets of a company after deducting liabilities. It represents the owners' claim on the company's assets and is calculated by subtracting total liabilities from total assets. In the case of Sophie's Sofas, the shareholders' equity would be $185,000 ($332,000 - $170,000 - $17,000).
To determine the firm's net income, we need to subtract the total expenses from the total revenues. In this case, the expenses include the cost of goods sold, income taxes paid, administrative expenses, interest expense, and depreciation. Given the information provided, the firm's net income would be $2,000 ($8,000 - $2,000 - $3,000 - $1,000 - $1,000).
The firm's revenues can be calculated by adding the cost of goods sold, net income, and interest expense. In this case, the firm's revenues would be $10,000 ($8,000 + $2,000 + $1,000).
EBIT, or Earnings Before Interest and Taxes, can be calculated by subtracting the interest expense and income taxes paid from the net income. In this case, the firm's EBIT would also be $2,000 ($2,000 - $1,000 - $1,000).

The First Church has been asked to operate a homeless shelter in part of the church. To operate a homeless shelter the church must hire a full time employee for $1,200/month to manage the shelter. In addition, the church would have to purchase $400 of supplies/month for the people using the shelter. The space that would be used by the shelter is rented for wedding parties. The church averages about 5 wedding parties a month that pay rent of $200 per party. Utilities are normally $1,000 per month. With the homeless shelter, the utilities will increase to $1,300 per month. What is the opportunity cost to the church of operating a homeless shelter in the church?
Answer: $1,000
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.
If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals.
Therefore, the opportunity cost for operating a homeless shelter is the amount that is received by renting the space of shelter for wedding parties.
Opportunity cost = Average wedding parties per month × Rent per party
= 5 × $200

The opportunity cost for the First Church to operate a homeless shelter is $2,900 per month, which includes lost rental income, increased utility costs, and new expenses for an employee and supplies.
Explanation:The opportunity cost to the First Church of operating a homeless shelter is the total of lost rental income from wedding parties, additional utility costs, and the new expenses for the employee and supplies. The church earns $200 per party from 5 wedding parties a month, which results in $200 x 5 = $1000 per month in rental income. Since they will give up this income to operate the shelter, this is part of the opportunity cost.
Next, we consider the increase in utility costs from $1,000 to $1,300 per month. This increased cost of $300 is also a part of the opportunity cost. Additionally, the church would have new expenses totaling $1,200 (employee) + $400 (supplies) per month.
Adding these figures together, the total opportunity cost for the church is:
Lost rental income: $1,000
Increase in utility costs: $300
Employee salary: $1,200
Supplies: $400
So, the total opportunity cost = $1,000 + $300 + $1,200 + $400 = $2,900 per month.
Dream House Builders, Inc. applies overhead by linking it to direct labor.

A newspaper article informs you that most businesses reduced production in the last quarter but also sold from their inventories during the last quarter. Based on this information GDP likely
a. increased.
b. decreased.
c. stayed the same.
d. may have increased, decreased, or stayed the same
Answer:
The correct answer is B: decreased
Explanation:
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the sum of all the finished goods and services produced in a specific period, based on the market value of such items. The data sets are net of inflation, they are calculated adjusting for price changes.
The formula is as follow:
GDP = C + I + G + NX
GDP is the sum of consumer spending C, Investments I, Government spending G, and net exports NX.
Inventory level itself is not part of GDP; however, changes in inventory does affect GDP by affecting investments. So if a corporation chooses to build up its inventory by amount X, it essentially makes an expenditure that increases I by X. Inventory will increase when a company produces more than what it sells.
So a reduction in production affects I, reducing GDP.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": decreased.
Explanation:
The Gross Domestic Product or GDP represents the overall market value of all nation-produced goods and services and calculates the performance of the economy. It is calculated using the following formula:
GDP = C + G + I + NX
Where:
C: private consumption or consumer spending G: government spending I: businesses' capital spending NX: net exports (exports - imports)
In the example, if businesses decreased their production, capital spending (I) will be lowered. Thus, if the other factors remained the same, the GDP is likely to decrease during that quarter.
Which of the following is NOT an OM strategy/issue during the introduction stage of the product life cycle? A. long production runs B. limited models C. high production costs D. frequent product and process design changes
Answer:
A. long production runs
Explanation:
In the production life cycle, there are four types of stages which comprise of introduction, growth, maturity, and decline
The introduction stage refers to the stage in which the product is first time introduced in the market. It involves high production cost, less market size, changes in frequent product and process design, limited models, etc.
So, the option A is correct.
Final answer:
The correct answer is long production runs. This is not a typical Operations Management strategy during the introduction stage of a product life cycle; longer production runs are usually seen at later stages when demand is stable and refinement is complete.
Explanation:
The question asks which of the following is NOT an Operations Management (OM) strategy/issue during the introduction stage of the product life cycle: A. long production runs B. limited models C. high production costs D. frequent product and process design changes.
The correct answer is A. long production runs. During the introduction stage of a product's life cycle, companies are more likely to encounter high production costs, limited models, and frequent changes to product and process designs in response to market feedback.
Long production runs are generally associated with the maturity stage of the product life cycle, where demand is stable and companies optimize manufacturing for efficiency.
At the introduction stage, the focus is usually on tweaking the product to suit market needs and establishing a market presence, which can be hampered by lengthy production runs that reduce the company's ability to adapt quickly to market responses.

When the team members mention two former employees, Doug and Linda, who moved on to new companies, the team members explain how happy their former colleagues are in their new jobs. The team members are alluding to the fact that company leaders lack credibility most fundamentally in what regard?
(A) Competence
(B) Caring
(C) Character
Answer: Caring
Explanation: In the given case, the team members are conveying that their former members are happy in their new jobs. This states that the members are getting more respect and care over there as nothing is mentioned in the question regarding the monetary benefits.
If there was a lack of character or competence in the leaders then it would be affecting the organisational operations more than their subordinates.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the leaders lack credibility in caring.
Team members discussing former employees' happiness at new jobs subtly implies a lack of leadership credibility at the current company, particularly questioning the leaders' character. So, option C is correct.
When team members mention two former employees, Doug and Linda, who moved on to new companies and explain how happy they are in their new jobs, the team members seem to be alluding to a lack of credibility in company leadership. Considering the research by Glen Fowler and the importance of integrity in leadership, the fundamental aspect of credibility that is being questioned here is likely character. Character refers to the moral qualities of honesty and integrity, and when leaders lack these, it can diminish their credibility and negatively impact the entire organization.
Suppose that the value of an investment in the stock market has increased at an average compound rate of about 5% since 1914. It is now 2019. a. If your great grandfather invested $1,000 in 1914, how much would that investment be worth today?
Answer:
FV= $273381.67
Explanation:
Giving the following information we need to find the value of the investment in present day
I=1000
i=0.05
n=115
The general formula to calculate the value of an investment for cases like this is:
FV= I*[(1+i)^n]
FV= 1000*(1,05^115)= $273381.67
To calculate the value of the investment today, use the formula for compound interest: Final Value = Initial Value × (1 + Rate)^(Number of Years). Plugging in the values, the investment would be worth around $28,942.34 today.
Explanation:To calculate the value of the investment today, we can use the formula for compound interest. In this case, the investment has grown at an average compound rate of 5% per year since 1914. We can use the formula:
Final Value = Initial Value × (1 + Rate)^(Number of Years)
Plugging in the values, we get:
Final Value = $1,000 × (1 + 0.05)^(2019 - 1914)
Simplifying the equation:
Final Value ≈ $1,000 × (1.05)^105
This calculation gives us a final value of approximately $28,942.34. Therefore, the investment would be worth around $28,942.34 today.
First, compute cost of goods manufactured. Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured Beginning Work-in-Process Inventory 38000 Direct Materials Used: Beginning Direct Materials 28000 Purchases of Direct Materials 70000 Direct Materials Available for Use 98000 Ending Direct Materials (33000) Direct Materials Used 65000 Direct Labor 80000 Manufacturing Overhead 38000 Total Manufacturing Costs Incurred during the Year 183000 Total Manufacturing Costs to Account For 145000 ▼ Cost of Goods Manufactured
Answer:
Cost of manufactured period= $221000
Explanation:
We need to calculate the production during the period.
Cost of manufactured period= Beginning work in progress inventory+ direct materials + direct labor + factory overhead - ending work in progress
Beginning work in progress= $38000
Cost of raw materials= beginning inventory + purchase - ending inventory= 28000 + 70000 - 33000= $65000
Direct labor= 80000
Manufactured overhead=38000
Ending work in progress= 0
Cost of manufactured period= 38000 + 65000 + 80000 + 38000= $221000
Marion Inc. has 5,000 shares of 5%, $100 par value, noncumulative preferred stock and 20,000 shares of $1 par value common stock outstanding at December 31, 2015. The board of directors declares and pays a $65,000 dividend in 2015. What is the amount of dividends received by the common stockholders in 2015?
Answer:
$40,000
Explanation:
Holders of preferred stocks are given preference in terms of dividend distribution. However, the amount of dividend that they will share in the $65,000 dividends declared by the board of directors is only limited to 5% of the total par value (5,000 shares x $100 = $500,000) of preferred stocks, which in this case is only $25,000 ($500,000 x 5%). After deducting the dividends for preferred stocks, the remaining dividends of $40,000 ($65,000 - $25,000) will be distributed to holders of common stocks.
A company needs 10,000 units of a component used in producing one of its products. The latest internal accounting reports show that the per unit manufacturing cost to be $150.00, variable manufacturing costs of $110.00 and fixed manufacturing cost of $40. The company recently received an offer from another manufacturer to produce the component for $144.00. If it buys the component on the outside 40% of the fixed manufacturing cost can be avoided. Required: a. If the company buys the component from the outside supplier at $144.00, what is the impact on income? b. What price would make the company indifferent between making the component internally and having the outside supplier make it?
Answer:
A) The outsourcing costs $18 more per unit. It increases the cost by $18000
B) Price= $126
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Q= 10000 units
In-house:
Variable manufacturing cost= $110 unit
Fixed cost= $40 unit
Total cost= $150 unit
Outsource:
Price=$144 unit
Fixed cost= $40*0,60= $24
Total cost= $168
A) The outsourcing costs $18 more per unit. It increases the cost by $18000
B) The price that makes the decision indifferent is the one that equals unitary costs. We can't reduce fixed costs.
Price=144-18= $126
There is evidence that the rate at which money changed hands rose during the German hyperinflation. This means that
a. velocity rose. If monetary neutrality holds the rise in velocity increased the ratio M/P.
b. velocity rose. If monetary neutrality holds the rise in velocity decreased the ratio M/P.
c. velocity fell. If monetary neutrality holds the fall in velocity increased the ratio M/P.
d. velocity fell. If monetary neutrality holds the fall in velocity decreased the ratio M/P.
Answer:
The correct answer is b. velocity rose. If monetary neutrality holds the rise in velocity decreased the ratio M/P.
Explanation:
The quantitative theory of money states that in a given period of time, the money supply multiplied by the velocity of money (that is the rate at which moeny changes hands) is equal to the price level multiplied by the amount of goods and services. Mathematically:
[tex]M_{t} \times V_{t} =P_{t}\times Y_{t}[/tex]
By algebraic manipulation we obtain:
[tex]\frac{M_{t}}{P_{t}} \times V_{t}=Y_{t}[/tex]
Money neutrality means that a change in the supply of money only has an effect on nominal variables, such as the price level, with no effect on real variables such as the real amount of goods and services.
Therefore if we know that the velocity of money rises then the ratio [tex]M_{t}/P_{t}[/tex] must decrease for money neutrality to hold, that is for [tex]Y_{t}[/tex] to remain constant.
A firm seeks to accept projects with a high degree of liquidity, avoid the higher forecasting error associated with cash flows occurring in the distant future, and avoid projects that require a large amount of research and development expenses. This firm may be justified in using the ___________to evaluate its projects.
Answer: Payback rule
Explanation: As per the pay back rule, the project which earns its initial investment more quickly is considered to be acceptable and profitable.
In the given case, the company is expecting a project which do not affect liquidity and does not take too much cost on research for the coming future. Thus, a project with a shorter time period of recovery of initial investment will be suitable fro them.
Hence the company should use payback rule to evaluate its product.
