Answer:
a. 10,000
Explanation:
Standard material provided, for each plane 1 sheet of aluminium, therefore, material for 10,000 planes = 10,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 1 = 10,000
Average sheets provided for 7,500 units of 1.5 units is not to be considered as this is actual and not standard, and not important.
As the average is based on actual results, and standard is set as based on standard capacities.
Therefore final answer is 10,000 sheets.
The standard number of sheets of aluminum allowed for a volume of 10,000 airplanes is 10,000.
What is direct labor?Direct labor is defined as the production or services labor that is appointed to a particular product, work order, or cost center.
When a business makes products, direct labor is regarded to be the labor of the production units that makes goods, such as machine operators, machine line operators, painters.
One sheet of aluminum is used for Standard material of producing the 10,000 planes, with the 10000 aluminum sheets.
[tex]10,000 \text{Planes} \times 1 \text{\Aluminum sheet}= 10,000 \text{aluminum sheets}.[/tex]
Average sheets supplied for 7,500 units of 1.5 units, in the above situation is not to be looked because this is actual and not standardised, and not important.
As we know that, the average is founded on existent outcomes, and standard is set up as founded on standard capabilities.
Therefore, option a is correct.

Current information for the Healey Company follows: Beginning raw materials inventory $15,200 Raw material purchases 60,000 Ending raw materials inventory 16,600 Beginning work in process inventory 22,400 Ending work in process inventory 28,000 Direct labor 42,800 Total factory overhead 30,000 All raw materials used were traceable to specific units of product. Healey Company's Cost of Goods Manufactured for the year is: $139,000. $137,000. $128,600. $131,400. $125,800.
Answer:
125,800
Explanation:
FIRST we check how many materials were used in production
beg raw + purchases = ending raw + used in production
15,200 + 60,000 = 16,600 + used in production
used in production = 58,600
SECOND the cost added during the period for the three main cost components
Raw materials 58,600
DL 42,800
MOH 30,000
cost added during the period 131,400
LASTLY the COGM
Beg WIP + cost added = ending + COGM
22,400 + 131,400 = 28,000 + COGM
COGM = 153,800 - 28,000
COGM = 125,800

This year, Builtrite had true net profits after taxes of $65,000 which includes common stock dividends received of $10,000, and also paid a preferred dividend of $35,000. What is Builtrite’s new level of retained earnings? A) $180,000 B) $190,000 C) $200,000 D) $170,000
Answer: $160,000
Explanation: Retained earnings can be defined as the amount pf earnings left with the company after taking into consideration all tyoes of dividends and taxes.
formula :-
Retained earnings = previous retained earnings + net income - dividends to equity holders - dividends to preference holders
thus,
Retained earnings = $140,000 + $65,000 - $10,000 - $35,000
= $160,000
Which of the following is most representative of the functional finance view of the macroeconomy? The economy is self-regulating and the best thing the government can do to enhance stability is to stay out of the way. Budgets should be balanced. Doing otherwise is morally wrong. The government should decide on tax and spending plans based on their effects on the economy. Crowding out almost completely cancels out any deficit spending, so fiscal policy is likely to be ineffective.
Answer:
The government should decide on tax and spending plans based on their effects on the economy.
Explanation:
According to the functional finance theory, the government is the authority which should finance itself to come along to meet with the explicit goals of the economy of the country. The theory has been proposed by Abba P. Lerner. Some of the goals of the economy include attainment of full employment, decreasing the rate of inflation and ensuring growth.

Which of the following statements is false? A perfectly price-discriminating monopolist does not lower price on all previous units in order to sell an additional unit of its product. Second-degree price discrimination is when the seller charges a uniform price per unit for one specific quantity, a lower price of an additional quantity, and so on. Charging senior citizens less for medicine is an act of third-degree price discrimination. Charging women less for a car wash is an act of second-degree price discrimination. A price taker cannot practice price discrimination.
Answer: Charging women less for a car wash is an act of second-degree price discrimination
Explanation: Second-degree price discrimination occurs when a company charges a different price for different quantities of the same commodity consumed.
Third-degree price discrimination occurs when a company charges a different price to different consumer groups.
Seller shouldn't be a price taker in order for him/her to practice price discrimination.
Hence, Charging women less for a car wash is an act of third -degree price discrimination
Final answer:
The false statement is that charging women less for a car wash is an act of second-degree price discrimination; it is actually an example of third-degree price discrimination, which differentiates prices based on demographic groups.
Explanation:
The statement "Charging women less for a car wash is an act of second-degree price discrimination" is false. In the context of price discrimination, first-degree (or perfect price discrimination) occurs when a monopolist charges each consumer the maximum price they are willing to pay, capturing all consumer surplus and maximizing profits. Second-degree price discrimination involves setting different prices based on the quantity consumed, such as bulk discounts. Third-degree price discrimination involves setting different prices for different demographic groups, such as charging senior citizens less for medicine. Charging women less for a car wash is actually an example of third-degree price discrimination, as it sets prices based on a demographic group. Lastly, a price taker cannot practice price discrimination as they must accept the market price and cannot influence it.
Which of the following is not important to know when preparing the flexible budget? A) Budgeted production levels B) Actual production levels C) Actual per-unit costs D) Budgeted per-unit costs E) All of the above are important for the flexible budget
All of the above are important for the flexible budget
Final answer:
All options provided are important when preparing a flexible budget. Actual and budgeted production levels, as well as actual and budgeted per-unit costs, are necessary to adjust and analyze the budget effectively. Costs like average cost, average variable cost, variable costs, and marginal cost are measured on a per-unit basis, while production technology refers to manufacturing processes that influence cost structure.
Explanation:
The correct answer to the student's question is that all the options provided (A, B, C, D) are important to know when preparing a flexible budget. Specifically, actual production levels are necessary to adjust the budget according to the actual activity during the period, while budgeted production levels provide a baseline for performance evaluation and planning. Furthermore, both actual per-unit costs and budgeted per-unit costs are essential as they help in analyzing the variances between expected and actual performance.
Costs measured on a per-unit basis typically include average cost, average variable cost, variable costs, and marginal cost. Fixed costs, however, do not vary with the production level and are therefore not calculated on a per-unit basis when considering the total fixed costs, although they can be expressed on a per-unit basis if allocated across units produced. In contrast, production technology refers to the method or process through which goods are manufactured and it influences the efficiency and cost structure of production.
Abacus Company has an opportunity to invest in a depreciable asset that will yield a net cash inflow of $30,000 per year for four years. Abacus’ desired rate of return is 10%. Based on this information, what is the present value of the investment opportunity (round to the nearest whole dollar)?
Answer:
Present Value of Investment Opportunity = $95,096
Explanation:
Net cash inflow = Cash inflow - cash outflow
Given that net cash inflow = $30,000 per month for 4 years
Rate of return = 10%
Present Value = [tex]\frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{1} } X $30,000 + \frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{2} } X $30,000 + \frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{3} } X $30,000 + \frac{1}{(1+0.1)^{4} } X $30,000[/tex]

PC Bell, a computer manufacturer that sells computer systems directly to customers, buys a computer chip for $180, software for $350, and a printer for $30. If the value added by PC Bell from selling this system (including the printer and the software) is $1,400 , what is the price at which the system is sold?
Answer:
At $1,960 price the system is sold.
Explanation:
All the expenses is to be considered while calculating the total cost because these cost is attached with the amount and the same price is to be charged by the customer. These costs which are given in the question is the part of the product. Hence, it would be added in the selling price. The computation is shown below.
The total selling price of the sold = computer chip + software + printer + Value added amount
= $180 + $350 + $30 + $1,400
= $1,960
Thus, at $1,960 price the system is sold.

Notson, Inc. produces several models of clocks. An outside supplier has offered to produce the commercial clocks for Notson for $420 each. Notson needs 1,200 clocks annually. Notson has provided the following unit costs for its commercial clocks: Direct materials $100 Direct labor 140 Variable overhead 80 Fixed overhead (40% avoidable) 150. Prepare an incremental analysis which shows the effect of the make-or-buy decision.
Answer:
The production of the clocks should be continued, as buy option will increase the cost for the company by 48,000
Explanation:
Current escenario
100 DM x 1,200 = 120,000
140 DL x 1,200 = 168,000
80 VO x 1,200 = 96,000
Fixed Cost 150 x 1,200 = 180,000
Total cost = 564,000
420 x 1,200 = 504,000
60% fixed cost unavoudable 180,00 = 108,000
Total Cost 612,000
make 564,000
buy (612,000)
total cost saving (48,000)
Final answer:
An incremental analysis to compare making clocks in-house against buying them shows the costs associated with each option, with consideration to avoidable costs. Making the clocks in-house involves direct materials, direct labor, variable overhead, and a portion of fixed overhead costs. Buying results in a flat cost per unit from the supplier.
Explanation:
The student's question involves conducting an incremental analysis to compare the cost of making clocks internally versus buying them from an external supplier. This is a common question in business courses, particularly those focused on managerial accounting and cost management. To make an informed make-or-buy decision, one must consider not only the direct costs but also the opportunity costs and potential savings on avoidable costs.
To calculate the incremental cost of making the clocks in-house, we consider the total cost for in-house production and subtract any costs that can be avoided if production is outsourced. The fixed overhead is the only avoidable cost noted, equaling 40% of $150. The remaining costs are direct materials, direct labor, variable overhead, and 60% of fixed overhead, which are inevitable. For the cost of buying clocks, we only need the quoted price from the supplier.
Here's the make-or-buy analysis:
Make:
Direct materials: $100 x 1,200 = $120,000
Direct labor: $140 x 1,200 = $168,000
Variable overhead: $80 x 1,200 = $96,000
Non-avoidable fixed overhead (60% of $150 x 1,200) = $90,000
Buy:
Cost of buying clocks: $420 x 1,200 = $504,000
By comparing these calculations, Notson, Inc. can decide whether to make or buy the commercial clocks based on cost considerations.
The per-worker production function flattens out due to ________. A) the negative relationship between price and quantity demanded B) the positive relationship between price and quantity demanded C) the diminishing marginal product of capital D) an increase in the general level of prices
Answer: the correct answer is C) the diminishing marginal product of capital.
Explanation:
Inputs include labor and raw materials. The law of diminishing marginal returns states that when an advantage is gained in a factor of production, the marginal productivity will typically diminish as production increases. This means that the cost advantage usually diminishes for each additional unit of input produced.

Suppose Lisa starts driving for Uber as a part-time job to supplement her income as a home-based web designer. When working as a web-designer she can make $25 per job and each day and can complete 2 additional jobs in the first hour of work but by the eighth hour she can only produce an additional 0.5 jobs. What hourly rate would Lisa need driving for Uber to induce her to drive for Uber in that 8th hour instead of web designing?
Answer:
$12.5(at least) would be needed to induce Lisa for driving Uber instead of working on web designing.
Explanation:
Lisa makes $25 per job on web designing from her home and in the first hour she can complete 2 additional jobs. But as per the question by the eight hour she can only do .5 jobs which means that for the eight hour she would earn -
.5 x $25 = $12.5 ( per job she gets $25)
So if Lisa goes on doing work as uber driver she is going to loose $12.5 in the eight hour , so we can say that if Lisa is offered $12.5 hourly rate to work as cab driver then she is not going to miss out on the money she would have made as web designer from home.
Lisa would need to make more than $12.5 per hour driving for Uber in her 8th hour to make it more financially beneficial than working her job as a web designer.
Explanation:If Lisa can make $25 per job in an hour's work as a web designer, and she is capable of completing 2 jobs in the first hour but only an additional 0.5 jobs by the eighth hour, we need to determine the opportunity cost of her working as an Uber driver instead. The opportunity cost of the eighth hour of work as an Uber driver would be the income she could potentially make in web designing, which is $25*0.5 = $12.5. Therefore, the hourly rate she would need to earn driving for Uber to make it more productive than web designing would need to be higher than $12.5.

Alpha Industries is considering a project with an initial cost of $8 million. The project will produce cash inflows of $1.49 million per year for 8 years. The project has the same risk as the firm. The firm has a pretax cost of debt of 5.61 percent and a cost of equity of 11.27 percent. The debt–equity ratio is .60 and the tax rate is 35 percent. What is the net present value of the project?
To find the net present value of a project in the business field, calculate the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) using the cost of equity, cost of debt, tax rate, and debt-equity ratio. Use the WACC as the discount rate to calculate the NPV. A positive NPV generally suggests the project could add value.
Explanation:The subject of this question pertains to the field of finances, more specifically to corporate finance and investment analysis in a business context. To calculate the net present value (NPV), we first need to calculate the weighted average cost of capital (WACC). The WACC incorporates the cost of equity and cost of debt adjusted for taxes, accounting for the debt-equity ratio. In this case, the WACC gets calculated as follows: Cost of Equity * Equity/(Debt+Equity) + Cost of Debt * (1-tax rate) * Debt/(Debt+Equity).
Substitute the given values to calculate the WACC, and then use the resulting WACC as the discount rate to calculate the NPV of the project by subtracting the initial investment from the sum of future cash inflows discounted back to present dollar value.
Please note, that it's also advisable to compare the resulting NPV with other potential investments to make an informed decision. If NPV is positive, it generally indicates that the project might add value to the firm.

In 2014, GoPro spent \$27.5$27.5 million on capital expenditures, experienced an increase in net working capital (including cash) equal to \$239$239 million, and realized \$18$18 million in depreciation. What is GoPro's unlevered free cash flow for 2014? *Make sure to input all currency answers without any currency symbols or commas, and use two decimal places of precision.
In this case, the called information is not enough to calculate the unlevered free cash flow. We need both the EBIT and the taxes, which are not given in the question. We can do a simplified calculation using the available data, but it will not be the accurate Unlevered Free Cash Flow without the missing figures.
Explanation:Unlevered Free Cash Flow (UFCF) is a company's cash flow before taking interest payments into account. It is calculated by adding depreciation back to Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT), then subtracting taxes, and finally reducing the net amount by the change in net working capital and capital expenditures. In this case, the question does not provide information about GoPro's EBIT or taxes, which are necessary components in calculating UFCF. However, if we take the three provided figures, we can partially calculate a simplified UFCF using the following equation: EBIT + Depreciation - Capital Expenditures - Change in Net Working Capital. Using the provided information, we find the calculation to be: Simplified UFCF = $18 million (depreciation) - $27.5 million (capital expenditures) - $239 million (change in Net Working Capital). Unfortunately, without the EBIT and tax figures, we can't provide a complete answer.

A Clarke Corporation subsidiary buys marketable equity securities and inventory on April 1, 2017, for 100,000 won each. It pays for both items on June 1, 2017, and they are still on hand at year-end. Inventory is carried at cost under the lower-of-cost-or-net realizable rule. Currency exchange rates for 1 won follow: January 1, 2017 $ 0.84 = 1 won April 1, 2017 0.85 = 1 June 1, 2017 0.86 = 1 December 31, 2017 0.88 = 1 Problem 10-11 (LO 10-2, 10-4) Assume that the U.S. dollar is the subsidiary’s functional currency. What balances does a consolidated balance sheet report as of December 31, 2017?
Answer:
Inventory at December 31th, 2017 = $85,000
Marketable securities at December 31th, $88,000
Explanation:
Inventory $100,000 WON (foreing currency)
securities $100,000 WON (foreing currency)
At April 1 The currenct exchage is 0.85
So their are posted at 100,000 x 0.85 = 85,000 Dollars
Because Inventory is carried at cost under the lower-of-cost-or-net realizable rule. their valuation doesn't change, because the WON never went down the 0.85 so their net realizable was higher than cost so
Inventory at December 31th, 2017 = $85,000
The marketable securities will be adjusted at the current exchange because they are a short term investment
Marketable securities at December 31th, $88,000

The best production method is determined by evaluating the costs of labor and capital for each method. Method 1 is the most cost-effective initially and remains so even if labor costs increase or if the cost of capital decreases.
Explanation:When evaluating the best production method, we must consider the costs of labor and capital for each method. With labor costing $100/unit and capital costing $400/unit:
Method 1 incurs a cost of (50 units of labor × $100/unit) + (10 units of capital × $400/unit) = $5,000 + $4,000 = $9,000.Method 2 incurs a cost of (20 units of labor × $100/unit) + (40 units of capital × $400/unit) = $2,000 + $16,000 = $18,000.Method 3 incurs a cost of (10 units of labor × $100/unit) + (70 units of capital × $400/unit) = $1,000 + $28,000 = $29,000.Thus, Method 1 is the most cost-effective initially. If the cost of labor rises to $200/unit, the costs change:
Method 1: ($200 × 50) + ($400 × 10) = $14,000.Method 2: ($200 × 20) + ($400 × 40) = $18,000.Method 3: ($200 × 10) + ($400 × 70) = $30,000.Even with increased labor costs, Method 1 remains the least expensive. Finally, if the cost of labor remains at $40/unit, but the cost of capital decreases to $50/unit, the total cost for each method would be:
Method 1: ($40 × 50) + ($50 × 10) = $2,000 + $500 = $2,500.Method 2: ($40 × 20) + ($50 × 40) = $800 + $2,000 = $2,800.Method 3: ($40 × 10) + ($50 × 70) = $400 + $3,500 = $3,900.In this last scenario, Method 1 should be used as it is still the most cost-effective.
Byron Corporation forecasts that its income will be $21,000 next year. The firm pays out 30 percent of earnings as dividends to common stockholders. Its target capital structure is 40 percent debt and 60 percent common equity. What Byron's retained earnings break point
Answer:
RE break point = $24500
Explanation:
21,000 net income
30% OF Earnings as dividends
21,000 x 30% = 6,300 dividends
Retained Earnings (assuming no previous beginning value)
21,000 - 6,300 = 14,700
RE break point = 14,700/0.6 = 24500
What does the $24,500 mean?
This mean that the company can raise financing for this ammount without changing their capital structure (60% equity 40% debt)
If the company wants to finance for more, it will need to raise new shares or chance their capital structure, and therefore the WACC will change
Vaughn Manufacturing has a weighted-average unit contribution margin of $30 for its two products, Standard and Supreme. Expected sales for Vaughn are 40000 Standard and 60000 Supreme. Fixed expenses are $1950000. At the expected sales level, Vaughn’s net income will be:
Answer:
expected income 105,000
Explanation:
Our goal would be to multiply the average contribution margin of the company by the total units produced.
[tex]average \: contribution \times units\: sold = contribution \: margin\\30 \times (40,000 + 60,000) = 30\times 100,000 = 300,000[/tex]
Important: the given is the weighted average, so the units mix (40% STD 60% SUPREME) is taken into consideration already, no need to additional calculation. If we were told the Contribution Margin per type of unit we will be needing to calculate the average CM.
Now, second step will be subtract the fixed cost from the contribution to get the pretax income
[tex]Net \:Income = contribution \: margin - fixed \: cost\\300,000 - 195,000 = 105,000[/tex]

Why does a surplus exist under a binding price floor? It encourages sellers to produce less of the product. It encourages buyers to purchase more of the product. It makes the price so high that the quantity supplied exceeds the quantity demanded in the legal market. It makes the price so low that the quantity demanded exceeds the quantity supplied on the legal market. It discourages sellers from increasing the quality of the product they sell, which, in turn, increases the quantity demanded.
A surplus exists under a binding price floor due to the price being set higher than the equilibrium, causing producers to increase supply and consumers to decrease demand, resulting in a surplus.
Explanation:A surplus exists under a binding price floor because it sets the price of a product or service at a higher level than the equilibrium price in a free market. In this scenario, producers are incentivized to supply more because the set price is higher than the market rate, while consumers are discouraged from buying because the price is more than they would be willing to pay at market level. Thus, the quantity supplied exceeds the quantity demanded, creating a surplus.
To illustrate, let's say the market equilibrium price for a loaf of bread is $2, but a binding price floor sets the minimum price at $3. Producers will be willing to make more loaves given the higher return, but consumers may see it as too expensive and choose to buy less, or perhaps none. As a result, there is excess supply, i.e., a 'surplus' of bread in the market.
