Final answer:
Jordan Electronics should continue to make the containers, as the total relevant cost of making them ($19,300) is less than buying them from Russo Container Company ($25,760).
Explanation:
To calculate the total relevant cost for Jordan Electronics to decide whether to make or buy the shipping containers, we need to consider only the costs that will change based on the decision. The costs provided are as follows:
Unit-level materials: $5,800
Unit-level labor: $6,400
Unit-level overhead: $3,900
Product-level costs: $9,600 (only one-third is avoidable if buying, so the relevant portion is $3,200)
Allocated facility-level costs: $26,600 (non-relevant as they are likely fixed and allocated broadly across the company's products)
If Jordan Electronics buys the containers from Russo Container Company at $2.80 each for 9,200 containers, the total cost would be 9,200 containers × $2.80 = $25,760. Therefore, the relevant cost of buying is $25,760.
Now, let's calculate the relevant cost of making the containers:
Unit-level materials: $5,800
Unit-level labor: $6,400
Unit-level overhead: $3,900
Relevant product-level costs: $3,200
The total relevant cost of making the containers is $5,800 + $6,400 + $3,900 + $3,200 = $19,300. Since the cost of making ($19,300) is less than buying ($25,760), Jordan Electronics should continue to produce the containers in-house.
Jordan Electronics should purchase the containers from Russo Container Company as the total cost of purchasing ($25,760) is lower than the total relevant cost of making ($45,900).
1. Calculate the total unit-level costs for producing 9,200 containers:
Unit-level materials + Unit-level labor + Unit-level overhead = $5,800 + $6,400 + $3,900 = $16,100
2. Calculate the avoidable product-level costs:
One-third of product-level costs = $9,600 × (1/3) = $3,200
3. Calculate the total relevant cost of making the containers:
Total relevant cost = Unit-level costs + Avoidable product-level costs + Allocated facility-level costs
Total relevant cost = $16,100 + $3,200 + $26,600 = $45,900
4. Calculate the cost of purchasing containers from Russo Container Company:
Cost per container = $2.80
Total cost of purchasing 9,200 containers = Cost per container * Number of containers
Total cost of purchasing containers = $2.80 ×9,200 = $25,760
5. Compare the total relevant cost of making with the cost of purchasing:
Total relevant cost of making = $45,900
Total cost of purchasing = $25,760
Since the total cost of purchasing ($25,760) is lower than the total relevant cost of making ($45,900), Jordan Electronics should purchase the containers from Russo Container Company instead of continuing to make them.
The builder of a new arena is sued after a section of the roof collapses during a football game, injuring hundreds of people and causing extensive damage to the arena. This is an example of what kind of exposure
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": completed operations liability exposure.
Explanation:
Completed Operations Liability exposure refers to the risk contractors are subject to by which a third party can sue them alleging bodily and property injuries as a result of finished work. Under these circumstances, all the parties responsible in the operations of the work (contractors and subcontractors) are cited until it is determined who could be liable for the harm.
Contractors are obligated to keep a completed operations liability insurance to face such scenarios, Failure to count on insurance for these cases could be considered a breach of the contract with the general contractor of the work.

A&B Enterprises may add customer appraisals as a component of employee performance appraisals. All of the following are most likely reasons for A&B to use customer appraisals EXCEPT ________. fostering change evaluating development programs holding employees accountable demonstrating customer commitment
Answer: Evaluating Development Programs
Explanation:
Customer Appraisal is very and should be very important to companies because it is a critical source of information that guides a company on knowing Consumer Behavior.
Knowledge of Consumer Behavior can make or break a company as it enables them to know if they are satisfying their customer's needs.
Fostering Change, Holding Employees Accountable and Demonstrating a commitment to Customers are main reasons for Customer Appraisals. Evaluating Development Programs is not likely to be a reason so is the correct answer here.
An excise tax levied on a product will impose a smaller relative burden on consumers (and a larger relative burden on sellers) when: Group of answer choices the supply of the product is relatively inelastic. the supply of the product is relatively elastic. the demand for the product is relatively elastic. either a or c is true.
Answer: the demand for the product is relatively elastic
Explanation:
When a product is said to be Elastic, it means that for every 1% change in price, there is a more than 1% change in the Quantity Demanded of that product. For example, if the price of a good rises by 2% and the Quantity Demanded drops by 2.5% that good is considered Elastic.
Now, if an excise tax is intruduced on a good that is Elastic that means that the price would rise and the demand would drop. This will impose a larger burden on suppliers because in an attempt to keep the price relatively stable, they will absorb most of the tax thus reducing their profitability in order to avoid a more than proportional decrease in Quantity Demanded.
An excise tax impacts consumers and sellers differently based on the elasticity of demand and supply. When demand is more elastic than supply, consumers bear less tax burden; when supply is more elastic than demand, consumers bear a larger burden. The tax incidence falls on the group with the most inelastic price-quantity curve.
An excise tax introduces a wedge between the price paid by consumers (Pc) and the price received by producers (Pp). When the demand is more elastic than supply, the tax incidence on consumers is lower, but when the supply is more elastic than demand, the tax incidence on consumers is larger.
The tax burden falls on the group with the most inelastic price-quantity curve. If demand is inelastic relative to supply, buyers bear most of the tax burden; if demand is elastic relative to supply, sellers bear most of it.
The more elastic the demand and supply curves, the lower the tax revenue generated. In cases of relatively elastic supply and relatively inelastic demand, the tax burden falls more on consumers than on sellers.

Using simple math, the Water Utility Fund of Eugene, Oregon has the following subtotals on its December 31, 2019 Statement of Net Position: Total Current and Accrued Assets, $2,000; Total Restricted Assets, $1,050; Net Utility Plant, $10,500; Other Assets, $60; Total Current Liabilities, $800; Liabilities payable from restricted assets, $250; and Long-term Liabilities, $7,900. How much would be the net position—Unrestricted? A. $1,200. B. $1,260. C. $950. D. $2,000.
Answer:
B. $1,260
Explanation:
The computation of the net position unrestricted is shown below
Unrestricted Net Position is
= Total Current and accrued Assets + Other assets - current liabilities
= $2,000 + $60 - $800
= $1,260
We simply added the other assets and deduct the current liabilities to the total current and accrued assets so that the amount could come in a correct way
Therefore all other information that is not considered is irrelevant. Hence, ignored it

Libre, Inc. has experienced bad debt losses of 5% of credit sales in prior periods. At the end of the year, the balance of Accounts Receivable is $125,000 and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has an unadjusted credit balance of $1,750. Net credit sales during the year were $200,000. Using the percentage of credit sales method, what is the estimated Bad Debt Expense for the year?
Answer:
Bad Debt Expense = $10,000
Explanation:
Using the percentage of credit sales method, estimated Bad Debt Expense for the year is
Bad Debt Expense = Net credit sales × Percentage of credit sales uncollectible
Given,
Net credit sales = $200,000
Percentage of credit sales = 5%
Putting the values into the formula, we can get
Bad Debt Expense = Net credit sales × Percentage of credit sales uncollectible
Bad Debt Expense = $200,000 × 5%
Bad Debt Expense = $10,000
As the company is using the Percentage of credit sales method, they do not need to adjust Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.

Ayayai Corp. had the following inventory transactions occur during 2022: Units Cost/unit Feb. 1, 2022 Purchase 102 $42 Mar. 14, 2022 Purchase 175 $44 May 1, 2022 Purchase 124 $46 The company sold 288 units at $59 each and has a tax rate of 30%. Assuming that a periodic inventory system is used, and operating expenses of $1692, what is the company’s after-tax income using LIFO?
Answer:
Income after tax = $1666
Explanation:
LIFO (Last-In-First-Out) is a method of inventory valuation where the goods that are received last are used first. In other words, the latest stock is used first. This is common for bulky inventory, stacked one on top of another.
In order to obtain the after-tax income, both the gross profit and income before tax are required. To obtain gross profit, we require the cost of goods sold information. The inventory information is as follows:
Feb 1 : Purchases : 102 units x $42 = $4284
Mar 14 : Purchases : 175 units x $44 = $7700
May 1 : Purchases : 124 units x $46 = $5704
288 units were sold
The COGS would be:
124 x $46 = $5704
164 x $44 = $7216
Thus COGS : $5704 + $7216 = $12920
Gross profit : Sales - COGS
Sales : $59 x 288 = $16992
Gross Profit = $16992 - $12920 = $4072
Income before tax : Gross Profit - Expenses
Operating expenses : $1692
Income before tax = $4072 - $1692 = $2380
Income after tax : Income before tax - (tax rate x income before tax)
Tax rate : 30%
Income after tax = $2380 - ($2380 x 30%) = $1666

What is Bad Debt ?Bad debts are documented as charge-offs when they become uncollectible and are present on a creditor's books.
An account receivable that has been specifically determined to be uncollectible and, as a result, is written off is referred to as a bad debt.
When a borrower or debtor defaults—that is, fails to pay back a loan or other obligation—bad debt results. These accounts are eliminated from the receivables list.

The Holmes Company's currently outstanding bonds have a 10% coupon and a 14% yield to maturity. Holmes believes it could issue new bonds at par that would provide a similar yield to maturity. If its marginal tax rate is 40%, what is Holmes' after-tax cost of debt
Answer:
The correct answer is 6.84%.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:
Coupon = 10%
yield to maturity = 14%
Marginal Tax rate = 40%
Here, Issue new bond at par show that YTM = Coupon rate
So, we can calculate the after tax cost of debt by using following formula:
After tax cost of debt = YTM × ( 1 - marginal tax rate )
By putting the value, we get
After tax cost of debt = 0.14 × ( 1 - 0.40)
= 0.14 × 0.60
= 0.684
= 6.84%
Consider the race for governor of a small state. The population of the state is evenly divided between three cities—Summertown, Tarrytown, and Auburn. The governor's race is between Ralph Rubin (the mayor of Summertown) and Travis Turner (the mayor of Tarrytown). Assume that no matter what is said during the campaign, Rubin can count on the support of 100% of the Summertown population, and Turner can count on the support of 100% of the Tarrytown population. Assume 100% voter participation.
a. According to the result of majority-rule voting, the next governor will be the one preferred by the majority of the residents of ___________.
Options:
a. Summertown
b. Tarrytown
c. Auburn
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The first point here is that the State is evenly distributed among the three cities that made up the state. That means if the state population is 300 , each city population is 100 .
Now , if Ralph Rubin get a 10% support from Summerton (100 people) and Turner got the 100% support of Tarrytown (100 people) assuming 1005 participation. The decider of the election will be the people of Auburn.
The preferred candidate by the majority ((more tha 50%)people of auburn will be the winner
According to the result of majority-rule voting, the next governor will be the one preferred by the majority of the residents of Auburn.
In a race for governor between two candidates with city-specific support, the winner will be the one preferred by the majority of the residents of Auburn due to the even division of the state's population among three cities.
In this scenario, even though each candidate has the complete support of their city's population, the winner will be chosen based on the majority of votes from all three cities combined.Since the population is evenly divided among the three cities, the majority will be determined by the combined total of votes from Auburn, making it crucial for a candidate to secure the majority support there.Six months ago, you purchased 2,300 shares of ABC stock for $28.08 a share. You have received dividend payments equal to $.80 a share. Today, you sold all of your shares for $30.07 a share. What is your total dollar return on this investment?
Answer:
Dollar Return $2.79
$6417 as per investment in shares
Explanation:
The return from an investment is the difference between value of stock when is was purchased to when it is sold plus any income received during the period
Dollar return will be divided into two
Capital gain which is the difference between purchasing price and selling price
Capital Gain = 30.07-28.08= 1.99
Income which is any income distributions made
Income = dividend Income = $0.80
Return = 1.99+0.8=$2.79
As per investment =2300*2.79 = $6417

Consumer division ROI = $3,850 / $27,500 = 0.1400, or 14%
Commercial division ROI = $3,885 / $27,750 = 0.1400, or 14%
This shows that investments in both divisions are performing equally well at the ROI of 14% each.
Lakisha is a professor of economics. She is currently earning $100,000 a year as a professor. She decides to quit her job as a professor and opens a consulting firm. In order to do this, she cashes out her retirement fund of $200,000. Her retirement fund has been earning 10% interest each year. At the end of her first year as an economic consultant, she earns $120,000 in accounting profit. What was her economic profit for the year?
Answer:
The correct answer is $0.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:
Accounting Profit = $120,000
Current earning = $100,000
retirement fund = $200,000
Interest from retirement fund = 10% × $200,000 = $20,000
So, we can calculate the economic profit by using following formula:
Economic profit = Accounting profit - Current earning - Interest from retirement fund
By putting the value, we get
= $120,000 - $100,000 - $20,000
= $20,000 - $20,000
= $0
Lkisha economic profit for the year equal $0
Economic profit is the profit derived after deduction of costs of inputs and opportunity cost from revenue made from sale of output.
The Formula to use to calculate Lkisha economic profit is {Accounting profit - Salary given up - Interest from retirement fund given up}Given Information
Accounting Profit = $120,000
Current earning = $100,000
Retirement fund = $200,000
Economic Profit = $120,000 + $100,000 - (200,000 * 10%)
Economic Profit = $120,000 + $100,000 - $20,000
Economic Profit = $0
Therefore, Lkisha economic profit for the year equal $0.

At December 31, 2020, Sager Co. had 1,200,000 shares of common stock outstanding. In addition, Sager had 450,000 shares of preferred stock which were convertible into 750,000 shares of common stock. During 2021, Sager paid$1,200,000 cash dividends on the common stock and $800,000 cash dividends on the preferred stock. Net income for 2021 was $6,800,000 and the income tax rate was 40%.
The diluted earnings per share for 2021 is (rounded to the nearest penny) _______.
Answer:
$3.48
Explanation:
Net income ÷Shares of common stock outstanding + Preferred stock convertible shares of common stock.
Net income 6,800,000
Shares of common stock outstanding 1,200,000
Preferred stock convertible 750,000
Hence:
$6,800,000/ ($1,200,000 + $750,000)
=$6,800,000/$1,950,000
=$3.48
Therefore the diluted earnings per share for 2021 is $3.48
Mayfield Inc. will pay a dividend of $3.14 per share next year. The company pledges to increase its dividend by 3.7 percent per year indefinitely. If you require a return of 10 percent on your investment, how much will you pay for the company's stock today
Answer:
The price that will be paid for the stock today is $49.84
Explanation:
The company is expected to grow the dividends at a constant rate, thus the constant growth model of DDM will be used to calculate the price of the stock today. The formula for the price of the stock is:
P0 = D1 / r - g
Where,
D1 is the dividend expected for the next periodr is the required rate of returng is the growth rate in dividendsP0 = 3.14 / (0.1 - 0.037)
P0 = $49.84
Using the Gordon Growth Model, an investor who requires a 10% return on their investment should pay $49.84 for Mayfield Inc.'s stock today, given a future dividend of $3.14 with a perpetual annual increase of 3.7%.
The student is asking how much they should pay for a company's stock today given that Mayfield Inc. will pay a dividend of $3.14 next year, and the dividends are expected to increase by 3.7% each year indefinitely. This question involves determining the present value of an infinite series of dividends growing at a constant rate, which is a Dividend Discount Model (DDM) application, a concept found within finance and investment analysis.
To calculate the price of the stock today, we will use the Gordon Growth Model (a version of the DDM for perpetuity with growth):
P = D / (r - g)
where P is the price of the stock today, D is the next year's dividend, r is the required rate of return, and g is the growth rate in dividends.
Plugging in the numbers, we get:
P = 3.14 / (0.10 - 0.037)P = 3.14 / 0.063P = $49.84
So, if an investor requires a 10% return on their investment, they should be willing to pay $49.84 for Mayfield Inc.'s stock today.
Explain why a contractor will typically do almost anything in his power to prevent having the owner notify the bonding company that the contractor has failed to fulfill some of the provisions guaranteed by a bond.
Answer:
Default by Contractor
Explanation:
A contractor will typically prevent having the owner notify the bonding company all because the bonding company, upon notification by the obligee, is then required to make remedy to the owner in accord with the provisions of the bond instrument, up to a maximum of the face amount of the bond.
Answer:
Explanation:
Note that The contractor is said to be in default when he fails to fulfil one or more provisions that was guaranteed in a bond. (He didn't keep his own part of the bargain in the bond)
He will do everything within his power to ensure that the owner doesn't know this because Once the owner knows the bonding company of a default, the bonding company will fulfil the obligations as set forth in the bond instrument. The company will vigorously seek the principal which the bonding paid in fulfilling the provisions of the bond, and the contractor must pay out of his own pocket.

Sandusky Company borrowed $28,000 from the Lakeside Bank by issuing a 10% three-year installment note. Sandusky agreed to repay the principal and interest by making annual payments in the amount of $11,259.21. Based on this information, the amount of the interest expense associated with the second payment would be: (round your answer to the nearest dollar)
Answer:
the amount of the interest expense associated with the second payment would be $1,954
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Amount borrowed= $28,000.00
10% interest=$28,000×0.10=$2,800
Therefore, Total outstanding at end of year 1=$28,000+$2,800
Total outstanding at end of year 1=$30,800
Sandusky agreed to repay the principal and interest by making annual payments in the amount of $11,259.21, therefore
Net balance at end of year 1= $30,800-$11,259.21
Net balance at end of year 1=$19,540.79
Hence, To calculate the amount of the interest expense associated with the second payment we would have to make the following calculation:
amount of the interest expense associated with the second payment= $19,540.79×10%=$1,954
