Answer:
Contractionary stance
Explanation:
When the government collects more extra money than it is spending, it signals a robust and fast-growing economy. Contractionary fiscal policy measures are applied to slow down growth and reduce inflationary pressure.
The contractionary fiscal policy is the government's mechanism of reducing the money supply in the economy. The government may reduce its spending in the economy, increase business taxes, or both. These actions decrease the money supply in the economy, which reduces the amount that businesses can borrow to expand. The objective is to lower the aggregate demand, thereby slowing the country's rate of producing new goods and services.
TeleGlobal is an American firm producing TV sets. TeleGlobal imports TV set components from Taiwan and assemb them domestically. Suppose that in the United States, a TV set sells for $500 and that 80% of the TV set's value comes from the value of the imported components. The United States imposes a 30% tariff on TV sets and a 10% tariff on the TV set's components. Assume that costs of producing components are the same in the United States a Taiwan. Based on the information provided, the effective rate of protection that TeleGlobal receives from the tariff is:__________.
a. -17.5%
b. 70.0%
c. 110.0%
d. 24.4%
e. 47.5%
Answer:
The right choice is Option c (110.0%).
Explanation:
⇒ [tex]Effective \ rate \ of \ protection = tariff \ rate \ on \ imported \ finished \ good + price \ of \ Component\times \frac{(tariff \ on \ imported \ good- tariff \ on \ imported \ component)}{(Price \ of \ finished \ good - Price \ of \ components)}[/tex]
On estimating the values, we get
⇒ = [tex]30 \ percent + (80 \ percent\times 500)\times \frac{(30 \ percent - 10 \ percent)}{500-80 \ percent\times 500}[/tex]
⇒ = [tex]110 \ percent[/tex]
Note: percent = %
Every year, management and labor renegotiate a new employment contract by sending their proposals to an arbitrator, who chooses the best proposal (effectively giving one side or the other $3 million). Each side can choose to hire, or not hire, an expensive labor lawyer (at a cost of $300,000) who is effective at preparing the proposal in the best light. If neither hires a lawyer or if both hire lawyers, each side can expect to win about half the time. If only one side hires a lawyer, it can expect to win nine tenths, or 0.9, of the time. Use the given information to fit in the expected payoff, in dollars, for each cell in the matrix.

No Lawyer Lawyer
No Lawyer L: M: S L: S M: S
Labor (L) Lawyer L: M: S L: S M: S
The Nash equilibrium for this game is for Management to_____a lawyer, and for Labor to_____a lawyer.
Answer: hire; hire
Explanation:
The Nash equilibrium for this game is for Management to hire a lawyer, and for Labor to hire a lawyer.
The Nash Equilibrium is the solution in a game where the parties are not cooperative with one another and refers to the strategy at which neither party would not want to move from as it would not benefit them to do so.
The Nash Equilibrium here is that they both hire a lawyer because if one side decides not to hire a lawyer, they could win only one tenths of the time. Both of them will therefore hire lawyers and neither would go without a lawyer on the chance that the other hires a lawyer.
Daily demand for a certain product is normally distributed with a mean of 138 and a standard deviation of 13. The supplier is reliable and maintains a constant lead time of 7 days. The cost of placing an order is $17 and the cost of holding inventory is $0.40 per unit per year. There are no stock-out costs, and unfilled orders are filled as soon as the order arrives. Assume sales occur over 358 days of the year.
Your goal here is to find the order quantity and reorder point to satisfy a 73 percent probability of not stocking out during the lead time.
a. To manage inventory, the company is using
Continuous review system
Periodic review system
b. Find the order quantity. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Order quantity books
c. Find the reorder point. (Use Excel's NORMSINV() function to find the correct critical value for the given α-level. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round "z" value to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole number.)
Reorder point
Answer:
A. Continuous review system
B. Order quantity = 2,049 Books
C. Reorder point=987
Explanation:
a. In order To manage inventory, the company is using what is called Continuous review system
b. Calculation to find the order quality
Using this formula
Order quantity = √((2DS)/H)
Let plug in the morning
Order quantity=√ ((2 x 49,404 x 17)/0.40)
Order quantity = 2,049 Books
(138*358=49,404)
C. Calculation for reorder point
First step is to find the σL
73 % S.L. - z = 0.613
Using this formula to find the σL
σL = (Lσ^2)
Let plug in the formula
σL=√(7(13)^2)
σL= 34.39
Second step is to find the Reorder point using this formula
R = d bar(L) + zσL
Let plug in the formula
Reorder point = (138)(7) + 0.613(34.39)
Reorder point = 966+21
Reorder point=987

The lease agreement specified quarterly payments of $6,500 beginning September 30, 2021, the beginning of the lease, and each quarter (December 31, March 31, and June 30) through June 30, 2024 (three-year lease term). The florist had the option to purchase the truck on September 29, 2023, for $13,000 when it was expected to have a residual value of $19,000. The estimated useful life of the truck is four years. Mid-South Auto Leasing’s quarterly interest rate for determining payments was 3% (approximately 12% annually). Mid-South paid $51,000 for the truck. Both companies use straight-line depreciation or amortization. Anything Grows’ incremental interest rate is 12%.
Required:
a. Calculate the amount of selling profit that Mid-South would recognize in this sales-type lease. (Be careful to note that, although payments occur on the last calendar day of each quarter, since the first payment was at the beginning of the lease, payments represent an annuity due.)
b. Prepare the appropriate entries for Anything Grows and Mid-South on September 30, 2021.
c. Prepare an amortization schedule(s) describing the pattern of interest expense for Anything Grows and interest revenue for Mid- South Auto Leasing over the lease term.
d. Prepare the appropriate entries for Anything Grows and Mid-South Auto Leasing on December 31, 2021.
e. Prepare the appropriate entries for Anything Grows and Mid-South on September 29, 2023, assuming the purchase option was exercised on that date.

BENEFITS OF COPORATE GOVERNANCE
Explanation:
Reducing the cost of capital. In today’s volatile environment, the implementation of good governance practices can lead to a reduction in a company’s cost of capital. An organisation that is seen to be stable, reliable and able to mitigate potential risks will be able to borrow funds at a lower rate than those with weak corporate governance. Companies with debt or equity investors may find that their investors pay a premium to work with a company that has a sound governance framework.
Improving top-level decision-making. There is a strong and demonstrable link between an organisation’s governance and rapid decision-making associated with improved performance, explains the Corporate Governance Institute in a recent report. Moreover, a number of performance failures have been directly linked to poor governance. There is no doubt that good governance assures rapid access to information and the good communication among stakeholders that leads to better results. Good governance also enables rapid and accurate prioritising of actions. This can prove invaluable in enabling the organisation to weather tough economic storms and supports the organisation’s sustainability

e. Big Wave owes $70,000 on a long-term note payable. At December 31, 12% interest for the year plus $35,000 of this principal are payable within one year.
Required:
For each item, indicate the account and the related amount to be reported as a current liability on the Big Wave Marine balance sheet at December 31.
Answer: Check explanation
Explanation:
a. Sales tax payable
Amount = $120,000 × 5%
= $120,000 × 0.05
= $6000
b. Notes payable, short term
Amount = $85000
Interest payable = $85000 × 4% × 4/12
= $1133.3
c. Unearned revenue
Amount: $2400 × 2/6
= $800
d. Accrued Warranty Payable
Amount = $11600 + $34000 - $34800

Coronado Industries sells 50000 units for $13 a unit. Fixed costs are $350000 and net income is $100000. What should be reported as variable expenses in the CVP income statement?
Answer:
Total variable cost= $200,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Coronado Industries sells 50,000 units for $13 a unit. Fixed costs are $350,000 and net income is $100,000.
First, we need to calculate the total contribution margin:
Total contribution margin= net income + fixed costs
Total contribution margin= 100,000 + 350,000
Total contribution margin= $450,000
Now, we can calculate the total variable costs:
Total variable cost= Sales - total contribution margin
Total variable cost= 50,000*13 - 450,000
Total variable cost= 200,000
Adriana Corporation manufactures football equipment. In planning for next year, the managers want to understand the relation between activity and overhead costs. Discussions with the plant supervisor suggest that overhead seems to vary with labor-hours, machine-hours, or both. The following data were collected from last year's operations:
Month Labor-Hours Machine-Hours Overhead Costs
1 730 1,354 $ 102,748

(a)
Use the high-low method to estimate the fixed and variable portions of overhead costs based on machine-hours. (Round your variable cost answer to 2 decimal places.)
(b)
Managers expect the plant to operate at a monthly average of 1,400 machine-hours next year. What are the estimated monthly overhead costs, assuming no inflation?
Answer:
A. Variable cost per hour=$41.50
Fixed cost =$48,390
B. $106,490
Explanation:
a. Using the high-low method to estimate the fixed and variable portions
Calculation for the variable cost per hour
Variable cost per hour=(115,205-101,925) / (1,610-1,290)
Variable cost per hour=13,280/320
Variable cost per hour=$41.50
Calculation for fixed cost
Fixed cost= 115,205-1,610*$41.50
Fixed cost =$48,390
B. Calculation for the estimated monthly overhead costs
Overhead cost =$48,390+1,400 machine-hours*$41.50
Overhead cost =$106,490
Alternative price indexes
Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator. The GDP deflator for this year is calculated by dividing the_____using______by the_____using_____and multiplying by 100. However, the CPI reflects only the prices of all goods and services.
Indicate whether each scenario will affect the GDP deflator or the CPI for the United States.

the U.S. but not bought by U.S. consumers.
Answer and Explanation:
The consumer price index refers to an index in which the prescribed market cost of goods & services by the prices years from the base year prices of the prescribed market basket and then it is multiplied by 100.
But the Gross Domestic Inflator would be represented when the all types of prices of goods and services generated domestically
An increase in the price refelected the GDP deflator
And, the decrease in the price of treewood represents CPI

He has been with his present company, a large retail grocer, for the past six years performing the same job. There are twelve people in the meat department, and each one specializes in cutting certain types of meat. Tommy's job is to cut ribeye steaks. Cutting ribeye steaks is very precise and requires holding and using a knife in the same way every day. This requirement has started to cause Tommy pain in his right hand. Although Tommy still likes his work, he is getting a little bored of the repetition and is bothered by the pain.
The quality of Tommy’s work has not suffered, but the store managers can tell that he is getting bored. What could they do to keep him better engaged?
a. Purchase special ergonomic mats to help with the pain associated with standing on the hard floor every day.
b. Motivate Tommy by giving him feedback about how skilled he is in cutting ribeye and explain that customers visit the store for his custom steaks.
c. Offer Tommy more money because he is so good at cutting meat.
d. Cross train the employees in the meat department, so beef cutters can learn how to cut pork and vice versa.
e. Administer a work personality quiz to Tommy to see if there is another area in the store where he could move to, such as the produce department.
Answer: d. Cross train the employees in the meat department, so beef cutters can learn how to cut pork and vice versa.
Explanation:
Since the quality of Tommy’s work has not suffered, but the store managers can tell that he is getting bored, the thing that could be done to keep him better engaged is to cross train the employees in the meat department, so beef cutters can learn how to cut pork and vice versa. Cross training helps the workers in the company appreciate the workers of others in other department and shows workers flexibility.
Ian loaned his friend $20,000 to start a new business. He considers this loan to be an investment, and therefore requires his friend to pay him an interest rate of 7% on the loan. He also expects his friend to pay back the loan over the next four years by making annual payments at the end of each year. Ian texted and asked that you help him calculate the annual payments that he should expect to receive so that he can recover his initial investment and earn the agreed-upon 7% on his investment.
Required:
Calculate the annual payment and complete the following capital recovery schedule:

Terms called for a down payment of $500,000 with the balance in two equal annual installments payable on December 15, 2014, and December 15, 2015. Ignore interest charges. Rigsby has a December 31 year-end. In its December 31, 2013, balance sheet, Rigsby would report:
a. Realized gross profit of $100,000.

Gross profit = Installment received * Percentage of gross profit
Gross profit = $500,000*20%
Gross profit = $100,000
ogan Products computes its predetermined overhead rate annually on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 40,000 direct labor-hours would be required for the period's estimated level of production. The company also estimated $466,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead expenses for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $3.00 per direct labor-hour. Logan's actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $713,400 and its actual total direct labor was 41,000 hours.
Required:
Compute the company's pre-determined overhead rate for the year.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated direct labor hour= 40,000
Estimated fixed overhead= $466,000
Variable manufacturing overhead of $3.00 per direct labor-hour.
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (466,000/40,000) + 3
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour

Shenandoah Skies is the name of an oil painting by artist Kara Lee. In each of the following cases, determine the amount and character of the taxpayer’s gain or loss on sale of the painting.
A. The taxpayer is Kara Lee, who sold her painting to the Reller Gallery for $6,000.
B. The taxpayer is the Reller Gallery, who sold the painting purchased from Kara to a regular customer for $10,000.
C. The taxpayer is Lollard Inc., the regular customer that purchased the painting from the Reller Gallery. Lollard displayed the painting in the lobby of its corporate headquarters until it sold Shenandoah Skies to a collector from Dallas. The collector paid $45,000 for the painting.
Answer:
a. Kara Lee is the painter so the painting is simply part of her normal business operations in selling it.
Amount is $6,000 and this is a sale.
b. Taxpayer is Reller Gallery who sold the painting as part of their normal business operations.
Profit on Sale = Amount sold - Amount purchased
= 10,000 - 6,000
= $4,000
Amount is $4,000 and the nature is ordinary business income.
c. Lollard Inc sold this painting even though it is not part of their normal operations.
This is therefore a gain.
Gain = 45,000 - 10,000
= $35,000
Amount is $35,000 and is a Capital Gain.

Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that in the late 1930s management at Atalanta Industries agreed to hire only those workers who were already members of the Electrical Union.
It should be noted that here, Atlanta agreed to a type of arrangement known as closed shop. This occurs when the workers have to belong to a particular union before they'll be employed. This was legal in 1930 but it was later declared illegal by Taft Hartley Act.
