A developer of a new townhome community estimates that there will be 1,200 home (all types) sales in University City over the next year. An analysis of demographic information has revealed that the core market share for the townhome project within the community is 10%. Assuming a capture rate of 20%, what is the developer's first-year projection of townhome sales in the new community
PAnswer:
24 units
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what is the developer's first-year projection of townhome sales in the new community

First-year projection=24 units
Therefore the developer's first-year projection of townhome sales in the new community is 24 units
A department adds all raw materials to a process at the beginning of the process and incurs conversion costs uniformly throughout the process. For the month of January, there were no units in the beginning work in process inventory; 89100 units were started into production in January; and there were 19200 units that were 50% complete in the ending work in process inventory at the end of January. What were the equivalent units of production for materials for the month of January?
Answer:
the equivalent units of production for materials for the month of January is 89,100 units
Explanation:
The computation of the equivalent units of production for materials for the month of January is shown below:
= Units completed + completed units in ending inventory
= (89,100 units - 19,200 units) + 19,200 units
= 69,900 units + 19,200 units
= 89,100 units
hence, the equivalent units of production for materials for the month of January is 89,100 units

Suppose you've just inherited $10,000 from a relative. You're trying to decide whether to put the $10,000 in a non-interest-bearing account so that you can use it whenever you want (that is, hold it as money) or to use it to buy a U.S. Treasury bond.
The opportunity cost of holding the inheritance as money depends on the interest rate on the bond.
For each of the interest rates in the following table, compute the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money.
Interest Rate on Government Bond (Percent) Opportunity Cost (Dollars per year)
8 _____ (10,000.00 / 800.00 / 0.08 / 8.00 / 125,000.00)
10 _____ (10,000.00 / 10.00 / 100,000.00 / 1,000.00 / 0.10)
What does the previous analysis suggest about for money?
a. The quantity of money demanded decreases as the interest rate rises.
b. The quantity of money demanded increases as the interest rate rises.
c. The supply of money is independent of interest rate.
Answer:
A. $800
B. $1,000
C. a. The quantity of money demanded decreases as the interest rate rises
Explanation:
A. Computation for the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 8%
Opportunity Cost for 8% interest rate=$8%*$10,000
Opportunity Cost for 8% interest rate= $800
Therefore the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 8% will be $800
B. Computation for the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 10%
Opportunity Cost for 10% interest rate =10%*$10,000
Opportunity Cost for 10% interest rate = $1,000
Therefore the opportunity cost of holding the $10,000 as money if Interest Rate is 10% will be $1,000
C. Based on the information given the previous analysis suggest about for money: THE QUANTITY OF MONEY DEMANDED DECREASES AS THE INTEREST RATE RISES.
Suppose that you are conducting market research at a regional mall in your city. The survey you are administering contains some relatively personal questions that some consumers might be reluctant to answer. As a result, you decide to select passers-by whom you believe are most likely to agree to answer your questions. Such an approach helps to ensure that all surveys will be completed and that questions will be answered in an unbiased manner. Nonetheless, it may come with a cost. Of the following statements, which is not a potential problem associated with this approach?
a. It might unexpectedly impact the "representativeness" of the sample.
b. All the answer options are potential problems.
c. It is likely to decrease the response rate.
d. It violates the underlying principles inherent in "probability sampling" techniques.
e. It could negatively influence the validity of the research study.
Answer: b. All the answer options are potential problems.
Explanation:
In other to get a truly unbiased result from surveys, the sample chosen should be completely random. This method is not random as the people being chosen are selected which means that the basic underlying principle of probability sampling of randomness is violated.
The representativeness of the sample might also be affected if only a certain type of people look like they will answer which means that only they will be represented in the sample. These problems have a strong chance of influencing the research in a negative way as the research may be biased.
And of course the response rate will likely be lower as only a certain type of people are being looked for and they might not number much.

Vaughn Manufacturing incurred the following costs for 84000 units: Variable costs $504000 Fixed costs 392000 Vaughn has received a special order from a foreign company for 2500 units. There is sufficient capacity to fill the order without jeopardizing regular sales. Filling the order will require spending an additional $4500 for shipping. If Vaughn wants to earn $5000 on the order, what should the unit price be?
Answer: $9.80
Explanation:
The unit price to earn $5000 on the order will be calculated thus:
The variable costs for 2500 units will be:

= 15000
The unit price will now be:
= (15000+4500+5000) / 2500
= 24500 / 2500
= $9.80
The unit price is $9.80

Zubin Ltd. had set the transfer price at $40 for the purchase of goods from its U.S. subsidiary. But the IRS audited the transfer price and determined that it should have been using a transfer price of $190. Assuming the adjustment results in an increase in U.S. tax liability of $200,000. Determine the penalty amount.
Answer:
Zubin Ltd.
The Penalty amount is:
Minimum = $10,000
Maximum = $50,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Company set transfer price = $40
IRs determined transfer price = $190
Increase in U.S. tax liability = $200,000
IRS penalty rate = 5% minimum for each month of default and not exceeding 25% maximum
Therefore, the penalty amount:
Minimum = $10,000 (5% of $200,000)
Maximum = $50,000 (25% of $200,000)

The major advantage of a regular partnership or a corporation as a form of business organization is the fact that both offer their owners limited liability, whereas proprietorships do not. True False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Some owners of a regular partnership (limited liability partnership) or a corporation (S-corporation) enjoy limited liability, unlike the owners of proprietorships, whose business liabilities and solvency are backed with the personal assets of the owners. The owners of a C-corporation enjoy full limited liability unless the corporate veil is lifted by the court, depending on prevailing circumstances. With limited liability also comes limited participation in the management of the entity.

In 1 to 2 paragraphs, analyze how a person's ethics or values might affect his performance on the job
Answer:
In simple words, Individual workers' ethical convictions have an impact on team and department productivity as well as individual achievement. Being an ethical worker allows you to be a stronger team participant constantly contributing positively in group situations and just never impeding collective success.
Even though all individuals are important in and of themselves, ethical individuals can be more monetarily useful to their companies as well as more respected by their colleagues and competitors. Reflecting on workplace ethics may help you become a better employee, and it's a good thing to begin if you want to do the right thing all of the time.
Answer:
How can poor ethics devalue you as an asset on the team? Well, if you have poor moral standards and beliefs and what not, people can somewhat easily identify your personality as a negative trait. However if you're a good person with good values and spot on ethics, people will quickly realize that you're a good asset to have on the team.
Your energy, work ethic, and values also determine how good or bad your work ethic is.

Mary makes 10 pies and 20 cakes a day and her opportunity cost of producing a cake is 2 pies. Tim makes 20 pies and 10 cakes a day and his opportunity cost of producing a cake is 4 pies. If Mary and Tim specialize in the good in which they have a comparative advantage, ______.
Answer:
If Mary and Tim specialize in the good in which they have a comparative advantage, ______.
Mary would specialize in making cakes while Tim would specialize in making pies.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Mary's opportunity cost of making a cake = 2 pies
She can make additional 5 (10/2) cakes instead of making pies
This will increase her cakes to 25 a day (20 + 5)
Tim's opportunity cost of making a cake = 4 pies
She can make additional 40 pies (10 * 4) instead of making cakes
This will increase her pies to 60 pies a day (20 + 40)
When they specialize there will be 25 cakes and 60 pies produced in a day instead of 30 cakes and 30 pies.
Applications that integrate business activities across departmental boundaries are often referred to as _____________ planning systems.
Answer:
Enterprise resource.
Explanation:
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a business strategy process where organizations manage and integrate the main parts of their day-to-day business activities by using software applications.
The ERP software system is used to integrate planning, accounting, finance, marketing and human resources.
For instance, when an organization is replacing a payroll program that it developed in house, with the relevant subsystem of a commercial Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, It should be noted that a faulty migration of historical data from the old system to the new system represent the highest potential risk because you won't be able to measure and analyze performance.
Hence, software applications or programs that integrate all business activities across departmental boundaries such as marketing, procurement, customer relationship, sales, etc., are often referred to as enterprise resource planning systems.

Mesa County contracts with New Construct Inc. to build a courthouse. New Construct hires Odell to excavate the site. Odell’s work damages adjacent properties. Mesa files a suit against the excavator, who argues that the county is not named in his contract with New Construct. Most likely, the court will hold that Odell is:_________
a. not liable because Mesa is not named in Odell’s contract.
b. liable on the ground that Mesa is an incidental third-party beneficiary.
c. liable on the ground that Mesa is an intended third-party beneficiary.
d. not liable because Odell’s contract was with New Construct, not Mesa.
Answer:
c. liable on the ground that Mesa is an intended third-party beneficiary
Explanation:
In a contract, the third-party beneficiary is a business or a person that benefits from the agreement and the terms of the contract that is made between the two other parties. According to law, third-party beneficiary have certain rights which they can enforced if the contract is not fulfilled.
In the context, Mesa is a third party beneficiary. The Mesa County enters into a contract with New Construct Inc. to construct a court house. Now New Construct Inc. again hires the firm Odell to excavate the land site.
While excavating Odell damages few nearby properties, so Mesa County files a law suit against Odell. But Odell argues that Odell is not in agreement with Mesa County or have not entered into with any contract with the County, so Mesa cannot sue the excavator.
But the court hold that as Mesa County is the third party beneficiary of the contract and have certain rights, Odell is held liable for the loss and should compensate for the loss to the County.
