Answer: Responsibility check.
Explanation:
A person's credit report can sometimes tell an employer what they need to know about how the prospective employee can handle responsibility because it shows how the person handles their financial obligations.
For instance, a person who's report shows is in financial distress will not be considered very responsible as opposed to some whose credit report is in good shape. To put it in perspective, would a bank like to hire a teller in financial distress? Chances are very negative for that.
Why would it be economically efficient to require a natural monopoly LOADING... to charge a price equal to marginal cost? A. Economic efficiency requires natural monopolies to earn zero economic profits. B. Economic efficiency requires the total benefit of producing a good to equal the total cost of producing it. C. Economic efficiency requires the last unit of a good produced to provide an additional benefit to consumers equal to the average cost of producing it. D. Economic efficiency requires the last unit of a good produced to provide an additional benefit to consumers greater than the additional cost of producing it. E. Economic efficiency requires the last unit of a good produced to provide an additional benefit to consumers equal to the additional cost of producing it.
Answer:
Option C is the correct Option.
Explanation:
First of all, let me clear it to you that, it is a multiple choice question with 5 options in it.
Question Statement:
Why would it be economically efficient to require a natural monopoly to charge a price equal to marginal cost?
Solution:
The correct answer to this question is option C .
Option C = Economic efficiency requires the last unit of a good produced to provide an additional benefit to consumers equal to the average cost of producing it
Reasoning:
The marginal value of the last unit of output delivered to consumers is equal to the marginal cost of production. The overall welfare surplus is maximized, including both user and producer surpluses. There is no loss of dead weight.

Answer: A business can explore new market opportunities with the help of accurate market research data.
Explanation:
When market research data is accurate, a business is better able to know what consumers want and can therefore explore new opportunities to satisfy these needs and make healthy returns as a result.
If market research data is poor however, companies run the risk of either investing in a loss making venture or not investing in a potentially profitable venture because they did not know how profitable it would be.

WalkLikeYou, Corp. is a specialty athletic shoe manufacturer which uses a job order costing system. The following information below is given for WalkLikeYou:
As of January 31 As of February 28
Inventory account balances:
Raw materials inventory $42,000 $30,000
Work in process inventory $9,200 $20,600
Finished goods $56,000 $33,500
Additional information for the month ended February 28:
Raw materials purchased $198,000
Factory payroll $150,000
Actual factory overhead costs:
Indirect materials $15,000
Indirect labor $34,500
Other overhead costs $13,500
Sales $1,100,000
Predetermined overhead rate (based on direct labor costs) = 55% of DL costs
Compute the following amounts for the month of February. You must show all of your work, either using formulas or using T-accounts.
a. Cost of direct materials used.
b. Total manufacturing costs.
c. Cost of goods manufactured.
d. Cost of goods sold.(ignore effects of underapplied / overapplied overhead)
e. Gross profit.
f. Overapplied or underapplied overhead.
Answer:
a. $195,000
b. $423,525
c. $412,125
d. $434,625
e. $665,375
f. $525 over-applied
Explanation:
a. Cost of direct materials used.
Cost of direct materials used = Opening Materials Inventory + Materials Purchase - Ending Materials Inventory - Indirect materials
= $42,000 + $198,000 - $30,000 - $15,000
= $195,000
b. Total manufacturing costs.
Total manufacturing costs = Variable Manufacturing Costs + Fixed Manufacturing Costs
Total manufacturing costs calculation
Direct materials $195,000
Direct Labor ($150,000 - $34,500) $115,500
Indirect materials $15,000
Indirect labor $34,500
Other overhead costs - applied ($115,500 x 55%) $63,525
Total Cost $423,525
c. Cost of goods manufactured.
Cost of goods manufactured = Opening Work In Process + Total manufacturing costs - Closing Work In Process
= $9,200 + $423,525 - $20,600
= $412,125
d. Cost of goods sold.
Cost of goods sold = Opening Finished Goods Inventory + Cost of goods manufactured - Closing Finished Goods Inventory
= $56,000 + $412,125 - $33,500
= $434,625
e. Gross profit.
Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold
= $1,100,000 - $434,625
= $665,375
f. Overapplied or underapplied overhead
If Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads, we have under-applied overheads
and
If Applied Overheads > Actual Overheads, we have over-applied overheads
where,
Actual Overheads = $15,000 + $34,500 + $13,500 = $63,000
Applied Overheads = $63,525
Over-applied overheads = Applied Overheads - Actual Overheads
= $63,525 - $63,000
= $525

Match each capital budgeting method with its definition. METHODS 1. Accounting rate of return 2. Internal rate of return 3. Net present value 4. Payback Definition Capital Budgeting Method a. Is only concerned with the time it takes to get cash outflows returned b. Considers operating income but not the time value of money in its analyses c. Compares the present value of cash outflows to the present value of cash inflows to determine investment worthiness d. The true rate of return an investment earns
Answer:
1. Accounting rate of return ⇒ Considers operating income but not the time value of money in its analyses.
Accounting rate of return is only concerned with the rate of return made over the life of the asset.
2. Internal rate of return ⇒ The true rate of return an investment earns.
Internal rate of return shows the true rate of investment and it does so by equating the NPV to zero.
3. Net present value ⇒ Compares the present value of cash outflows to the present value of cash inflows to determine investment worthiness.
Net Present value allows us to subtract the present value of outflows from inflows and is a very useful capital budgeting techniques.
4. Payback ⇒ Is only concerned with the time it takes to get cash outflows returned.
Payback period is concerned with the time it would take to pay off the investment. It does not try to convince other titans.
(4) Asset A has an expected return of 15% and a Sharpe ratio of .4. Asset B has an expected return of 20% and a Sharpe ratio of .3. A rational risk-averse investor would prefer a portfolio using the risk-free asset and ______. A. asset A B. asset B C. no risky asset D. not enough information to determine the answer
Answer: A. Asset A
Explanation:
The Sharpe ratio is used to adjust the return earned on an asset based on its risk. This allows investors to know the returns they are getting for risk being taken.
A higher Sharpe ratio is preferred to a lower one as it shows that more returns are being received per risk taken. A rational risk averse investor would therefore pick Asset A because they would be getting more return for the risk they take regardless of how little this risk is.
The following information was taken from the segmented income statement of Restin, Inc., and the company's three divisions: Restin, Inc. Los Angeles Division Bay Area Division Central Valley Division Revenues $ 750,000 $ 200,000 $ 235,000 $ 325,000 Variable operating expenses 410,000 110,000 120,000 180,000 Controllable fixed expenses 210,000 65,000 75,000 70,000 Noncontrollable fixed expenses 60,000 15,000 20,000 25,000 In addition, the company incurred common fixed costs of $18,000. Assume that the Los Angeles division increases its promotion expense, a controllable fixed cost, by $10,000. As a result, revenues increased by $50,000. If variable expenses are tied directly to revenues, the new Los Angeles segment profit margin is:
Answer:
$112,500
Explanation:
With regards to the above information, we would compute first the Los Angeles division revenue.
Contribution margin
= Loss Angeles division revenues - Variable operating expenses
Los Angeles division revenues
= $200,000 + $50,000
= $250,000
Variable operating expenses
= ($110,000 × $250,000) / $200,000
= $137,500
Therefore,
Contribution margin
= $250,000 - $137,500
= $112,500
It means that if variable expenses are tied directly to revenues, the new Los Angeles profit margin would be $112,500
Despite the heavy reliance on e-mail, in certain situations calling may be the most efficient channel of communication, whether mobile or on your office line. Be sure to understand professional expectations for telephone, cell phone, and voice mail etiquette. Identify the telephone etiquette that will make your telephone calls productive. Check all that apply. Avoid telephone tag. End the call politely. Leave complete voice mail messages. Use a three-point introduction. Be professional and courteous.
Answer:
All options are correct
Explanation:
For a telephone call to be effective, it is necessary to introduce three points, where you must name the person you are calling, identify yourself and identify the reason for the telephone contact. It is ideal to avoid phone etiquette, as a clear and objective call will retain more attention and be more efficient.
If you are unable to communicate with the necessary person, it is ideal that the messages left in the voicemail are complete for the perfect understanding and identification of the reasons and how the person can return the contact if necessary.
In a phone call being professional and courteous is essential, through the tone of voice and cordiality of the attendant the attention will increase and the objectives of the call are more likely to be achieved, so throughout the call until its close, education must be the basis, because in addition to being necessary, the professional is a representative of the company that is calling, so ethics, education and cordiality are essential in any professional connection.
Joint products Alpha and Beta emerge from common processing that costs $200,000 and yields 9,000 units of Product Alpha and 5,600 units of Product Beta. Product Alpha can be sold for $150 per unit. Product Beta can be sold for $90 per unit. What amount of the joint costs will be assigned to Product Beta if joint costs are allocated on the basis of number of units produced
Answer:
the amount of the joint cost allocated is $76,712.32
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of the joint cost allocated is shown below"
= Processing cost × beta units ÷ (alpha units + beta units)
= $200,000 × 5,600 units ÷ (9,000 units + 5,600 units)
= $76,712.32
Hence, the amount of the joint cost allocated is $76,712.32
Dawson Toys, Ltd., produces a toy called the Maze. The company has recently established a standard cost system to help control costs and has established the following standards for the Maze toy:Direct materials: 6 microns per toy at $1.50 per micron Direct labor: 1.3 hours per toy at $21 per hourDuring July, the company produced 3,000 Maze toys. Production data for the month on the toy follow:Direct materials: 25,000 microns were purchased at a cost of $1.48 per micron. 5,000 of these microns were still in inventory at the end of the month.Direct labor: 4,000 direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $88,000.Required: 1. Compute the following variances for July:a. The materials price and quantity variances.b. The labor rate and efficiency variances.
Answer:
1. a. The materials price and quantity variances
Material price variance: Standard cost per micron is $1.50 and actual cost per micron is $1.48. So, price variance is 1.48 - 1.5 = $(0.02) per micron
Quantity variance: Based on standard bill of material, Dawson Toys need 3,000 x 6 = 18,000 microns to produce 3,000 Maze toys. Actual consumption volume is 25,000 - 5,000 = 20,000 microns. So, quantity variance is 20,000 - 18,000 = 2,000 microns.
1. b. The labor rate and efficiency variances
Actual labor rate = Actual labor cost / Actual hour = 88,000/4,000 = $22 per hour.
Efficiency variance = Actual labor rate - Standard labor rate = 22 - 21 = $1 per hour.
2. Prepare a brief explanation of the possible causes of each variance.
Direct material cost variance: Total actual material cost is 20,000 x 1.48 = $29,600, higher than standard material cost of 18,000 x 1.5 = $27,000. This is mainly due to higher production waste as compared to standards.
Direct labor cost variance: Total actual labor cost is $88,000, higher than standard labor cost of 4,000 x 21 = $84,000. This is mainly due to lower labor rate per hour than expected.

Community hospital of the west is experiencing changes occurring throughout the facility, many of the employees are concerned about how the change will affect their current position and workflow. Although the employees are aware that change is occurring in the facility, there has been little communication regarding the changes and the employees are feeling unsettled. Describe the steps the hospital needs to do in order to better support employees during the transitional phase of change. What are some consequences for the hospital if this type of support is not provided
Answer:
in order to support the employees during the transitional phase of change, the hospital could try helping the employees get used to the new changes by maybe adding facilities that they are used to or maybe arrange some colleagues that the employees are familiar with to work with them, so they can get used to the new things with some support by their side.
consequences the hospital May face if they don't support their employees to make them feel more comfortable in their workplace, many of their workers May quit and it would be hard to find new employees and it would be time-consuming to teach the new employees all over again.
another consequence is that if their employees are the ones that make a lot of people want to go to their Hospital community, then losing them may make the people that go to the hospital community to not want to return again and maybe leave a bad review, since the help support care and treatment probably isn't the same.

crane company purchased aa depreciatble asset for $614000 on january 1, 2018. the estimated salvage value os $56000 and the estimated useful life is 9 years. the straight-line method is used for depreciztion. in 2021, crane changed its estimates to a total useful life of 5 years with a salvage value of $92000. what is 2021 depreciation expense
Answer:
$166,000
Explanation:
The computation of the 2021 depreciation expense is shown below:
Depreciation expense is
= (Cost - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life
= ($614,000 - $56,000) ÷ 9
= $62000/year
Now book value as on 2021 is
= (Cost - Accumulated depreciation expense)
= $614,000 - (62000 × 3)
= $424000
Now revised depreciation expense is
= ($424,000 - $92,000) ÷ 2
= $166,000

d. If money demand does not depend on the interest rate, the LM curve is vertical. True False e. If money demand does not depend on income, the LM curve is horizontal. True False f. If money demand is extremely sensitive to the interest rate, the LM curve is horizontal. True False g. Suppose the government wants to change the level of output. If the LM curve is horizontal, then fiscal policy is completely ineffective, whereas monetary policy is highly effective. monetary policy
Answer:
d. True
e. False
f. True
g. True
Explanation:
Interest rate movement is based on the fiscal policy of the government. If interest rates changes there is movement in the LM curve. This is because LM curve represents money market equilibrium of real interest rates. Monetary policy is completely ineffective if the interest rates does not change since the LM curve will be horizontal.

Koczela Inc. has provided the following data for the month of May: Inventories: Beginning Ending Work in process $ 28,000 $ 23,000 Finished goods $ 57,000 $ 61,000 Additional information: Direct materials $ 68,000 Direct labor cost $ 98,000 Manufacturing overhead cost incurred $ 74,000 Manufacturing overhead cost applied to Work in Process $ 72,000 Any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead is closed out to cost of goods sold. The cost of goods manufactured for May is:
Answer:
COGS= $241,000
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the cost of goods manufactured with allocated overhead:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
cost of goods manufactured= 28,000 + 68,000 + 98,000 + 72,000 - 23,000
cost of goods manufactured= $243,000
Now, we determine the cost of goods sold:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory
COGS= 57,000 + 243,000 - 61,000
COGS= $239,000
Finally, we close the under/over applied overhead to COGS:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 74,000 - 72,000
Underapplied overhead= $2,000
We need to debit COGS and credit overhead:
COGS 2,000
Manufacturing overhead 2,000
COGS= 239,000 + 2,000
COGS= $241,000
Ivan Knobel holds a well-diversified portfolio that has an expected return of 11.0% and a beta of 1.20. He is in the process of buying 1,000 shares of Syngine Corp at $10 a share and adding it to his portfolio. Syngine has an expected return of 13.0% and a beta of 1.50. The total value of Ivan's current portfolio is $90,000. What will the expected return and beta on the portfolio be after the purchase of the Syngine stock? a. 11.76%; 1.29 b. 10.64%; 1.17 c. 12.97%; 1.42 d. 12.35%; 1.36 e. 11.20%; 1.23
Answer:
e. 11.20%; 1.23
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return and the beta is shown below
For expected return
= ($10,000 ÷ ($10,000 + $90,000) × 13%) + (0.9 × 11%)
= ($10,000 ÷ $100,000 × 13%) + (0.9 × 11%)
= (0.1 × 13%) + (0.9 × 11%)
= 11.20%
And, the beta is
= ($10,000 ÷ 100,000 × 1.50) + ($90,000 ÷ 100,000 × 1.20 )
= 1.23
At the beginning of 2021, Terra Lumber Company purchased a timber tract from Boise Cantor for $2,950,000. After the timber is cleared, the land will have a residual value of $670,000. Roads to enable logging operations were constructed and completed on March 30, 2021. The cost of the roads, which have no residual value and no alternative use after the tract is cleared, was $228,000. During 2021, Terra logged 570,000 of the estimated 5.7 million board feet of timber. Required: Calculate the 2021 depletion of the timber tract and depreciation of the logging roads assuming the units-of-production method is used for both assets
Answer:
depletion of the timber tract = $228,000 and
depreciation of the logging roads = $22,800
Explanation:
Timber tract
Depletion rate = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated units
= ($2,950,000 - $670,000) ÷ 5,700,000
= $0.40
Depletion expense = Units used x Depletion rate
= 570,000 x $0.40
= $228,000
Logging Roads
Depreciation rate = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated units
= ($228,000 - $0) ÷ 5,700,000
= $0.04
Depreciation expense = Units used x Depreciation rate
= 570,000 x $0.04
= $22,800
Diving Fiasco. Mike, who owns a dive shop in the United States, decides to take a group of his customers diving in U.S. waters. Mike is aware that sharks occasionally visit the area where the divers will be visiting. He is also aware that while stingrays are usually tame, they can become aggressive when fed. Mike does not reveal that information to the group of divers going with him. The divers go down into the water, and some have squid with which to feed the stingrays. During the dive, one of the stingrays becomes agitated and latches onto diver Susie's arm. Susie is so disconcerted that she drops her regulator (her breathing device) from her mouth and is in considerable difficulty. Another diver, Billy, encounters a shark, which snaps at him. While the shark does not actually bite Billy, the attack results in damage to his diving equipment. Mike, who is in charge of the dive, does nothing to help and leaves the other divers to return to the boat because the dive turned out to be more trouble than expected. Wendy, another diver on the trip, also returns to the boat without doing anything to help the divers in distress. Sam, on the other hand, goes to rescue the divers who are in distress. He manages to do so but in the process he pulls his back and requires medical care. All divers are very unhappy with Mike. Billy and Susie are annoyed that Mike did not come to their assistance. Which is true regarding Mike's duty to provide assistance to them during the dive?
A) Mike had no duty to provide any assistance to them.
B) Mike had a duty to come to their aid because he arranged the dive and was charging them.
C) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if he had specifically agreed to do so prior to the dive.
D) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if they were minors.
E) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if no one else did so.
Answer:
B) Mike had a duty to come to their aid because he arranged the dive and was charging them.
Explanation:
Mike organized the diving trip as part of his business activities. he is making money out of it, he is not doing it for free. He should haver warned the other divers about the risks involved and should also help them in case they are in trouble. When you provide a service, you are responsible for your customers' safety.
Asset management ratios are used to measure how effectively a firm manages its assets, by relating the amount a firm has invested in a particular type of asset (or group of assets) to the amount of revenues the asset is generating. Examples of asset management ratios include the average collection period (also called the days sales outstanding ratio), the inventory turnover ratio, the fixed asset turnover ratio, and the total asset turnover ratio. Consider the following case: Graham Pharmaceuticals has a quick ratio of 2.00x, $31, 500 in cash, $17, 500 in accounts receivable, some assets of inventory, total $70,000, and total abilities of $24, 500. The company reported annual sales of $100,000 in the most recent annual report, over the past year, how often did Graham Pharmaceuticals sell and replace its inventory? a. 8.01 x.b. 5.24 x.c. 2.85 x.d. 4.75 x.The inventory turnover ratio across companies in the pharmaceutical industry is 4.05x. Based on this information, which of the following statements is true for Graham Pharmaceuticals? A. Graham Pharmaceuticals is holding less inventory per dollar of sales compared to the industry average. B. Graham Pharmaceuticals is holding more inventory per dollar of sales compared to the industry average.

2. Our Play's fixed assets turnover ratio is _lower__ than that of Like Games. This could be because Our Play is relatively new company, so the acquisition cost of its fixed assets is _higher___ than the recorded cost of Like Games's fixed assets.
3. Like Games's total assets turnover ratio is _1.05x_ which is _higher_ than the industry's average total assets turnover ratio. In general, a higher total assets turnover ratio indicates greater efficiency.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Graham Pharmaceuticals
Quick ratio = 2.00x
Cash = $31,500
Accounts receivable = $17,500
Inventory = x
Total current assets = $70,000
Total current liabilities = $24,500
Quick assets = $24,500 * 2 = $49,000 ($31,500 + $17,500)
Inventory (x) = $21,000 ($70,000 - $49,000)
Annual sales = $100,000
Inventory Turnover = $100,000/$21,000 = 4.76x
Part B:
Like Games Our Play Industry Average
Accounts receivable 2,700 3,900 3,850
Net fixed assets 55,000 80,000 216,750
Total assets 95,000 125,000 234,600
Sales revenue 100,000 100,000 100,000
Days Sales Outstanding 9.9 days 14.2 days 14x
Accounts receivable turnover 37x 25.6x 26x
Average Collection Period 9.9 days 14.3 days 14x
Fixed assets turnover ratio 1.82x 1.25x 0.46x
Total assets turnover ratio 1.05x 0.8x 0.43x
Average days of sales outstanding = Average Accounts Receivable/Sales * 365
Accounts receivable turnover = Net Sales/Average Receivable
Average Collection Period = 365/Accounts receivable turnover
Fixed assets turnover ratio = Net Sales/Net Fixed Assets
Total assets turnover ratio = Net Sales/Total assets
Mary Alice just won the lottery and is trying to decide between the options of receiving the annual cash flow payment option of $420,000 per year for 25 years beginning today, or receiving one lump-sum amount today. Mary Alice can earn 6% investing this money. At what lump-sum payment amount would she be indifferent between the two alternatives
Answer:
The lum-sum must equal $5,369,009.59
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
First option:
Annual payment= $420,000
Number of periods= 25 years
Interest rate= 6%
First, we need to calculate the future value of the first option using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {420,000*[(1.06^25) - 1]} / 0.06
FV= $23,043,095.04
Now, to determine the lump-sum to receive today, we need to determine the present worth of the annuity:
PV= FV / (1 + i)^n
PV= 23,043,095.04 / (1.06^25)
PV= $5,369,009.59
