Here is the complete question

The GDP price index for this year is calculated by dividing the (A) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy in the base year (B) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year (C) cost of a given market basket of goods and services using 2) ______ (A) the base year's prices (B) this year's prices by the 3) ________ A) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy in the base year (B) Value of all goods and services produced in the economy this year (C) cost of a given market basket of goods and services using 4) ______ (A) the base year's prices (B) this year's prices

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year

GDP price index = (nominal GDP / Real GDP ) X 100

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

For example, country A produces 10 kg of rice at $10 per kg in 2019 and 50kg of beans at $30 per kg in 2018. In 2019, it produces 10 kg of rice at $20 per kg in 2019 and 50kg of beans at $40 per kg in 2019. 2018 is the base year.

Nominal GDP in 2018 = (10 x $10) + (50 x $30) = $1600

Nominal GDP in 2019 = (10 x $20) + (50 x $40) = $2200

Real GDP in 2018 = (10 x $10) + (50 x $30) = $1600

Real GDP in 2019 = (10 x $10) + (50 x $30) = $1600

GDP price index in 2019 =  nominal gdp in 2019 / real gdp in 2019 ) x 100

(2200 / 1600 ) x 100 = 137.5

Answer:

Chirac Enterprises

a) Diluted EPS = $0. 35

b) Diluted EPS = $0. 35

c) Diluted EPS = $0. 35

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Issued at par 75 $1,060, 8% bonds = $70,000 Bonds Premium $9,500

Each of the 75 bonds are convertible into 200 shares = 15,000 (75 * 200) shares

2014 Revenue     $19,100

2014 expenses      8,860

Pre-tax income  $10,240

Tax (40%)              4,096

Net income         $6,144

Ordinary EPS = $2.43 per share ($6,144/2,530)

Common shares = 2,530

Convertible bonds shares = 15,000

Total shares = 17,530

Diluted EPS = $0. 35 ($6,144/17,530) per share

b) The basic assumption for computing diluted earnings per share is that  Chirac's earnings are expressed per share (EPS) as if all convertible securities were exercised.  This implies that whether the bonds had been converted or not, the number of the shares used for calculating diluted earnings per share will remain the same in these scenarios.

Under an installment contract, a buyer can:
A. Reject an installment if the nonconformity substantially impairs the value of the installment without giving the seller an opportunity to cure
B. Hold the seller in breach of the entire installment contract when a nonconforming installment substantially impairs the value of that
installment alone.
C. Reject an installment no matter how minor the nonconformance is
D. None of these answers

Answers

Answer:

A. Reject an installment if the nonconformity substantially impairs the value of the installment without giving the seller an opportunity to cure.

Explanation:

A contract can be defined as an agreement between two or more parties (group of people) which gives rise to a mutual legal obligation or enforceable by law.

There are different types of contract in business and these includes: fixed-price contract, cost-plus contract, bilateral contract, implies contract, unilateral contract, adhesion contract, unconscionable contract, option contract, express contract, installment contract, etc.

Total installment price is the total amount a consumer or customer end up paying for goods and services.

Mathematically, it can be calculated by using the formula below;

Total Installment Price = ([Monthly payment] × [No. of payments] + Down payment)

Hence, you multiply the monthly revenue by the amount of payments and add it to the down the payment.

Under an installment contract, a buyer can reject an installment if the nonconformity substantially impairs the value of the installment without giving the seller an opportunity to cure. This is in accordance with the uniform commercial code (UCC).

The uniform commercial code (UCC) is a set of standardized business laws which are put in place for the regulation of financial contracts and commercial transactions used across different states in the United States of America.

There are special rules known as the special business standards that are set up by UCC governing the merchants and the sales of goods in the Article 2 of the uniform commercial code.

(TYPE 6) Given that beginning inventory level is 660 units, total forecasted demand over the next 12 months is 18,000 units, and desired ending inventory level at the end of the 12th month is 900 units, what is the cost of production per month if a level strategy is used and per unit cost of production is $22

Answers

Answer: $33,440

Explanation:

First find the units to be produced for the year:

= Forecasted demand + Closing inventory - Opening inventory

= 18,000 + 900 - 660

= 18,240 units

Cost of production:

= 18,240 * 22

= $401,280

Cost per month:

= 401,280 / 12

= $33,440

The Change Corporation has two different bonds currently outstanding. Bond M has a face value of $30,000 and matures in 20 years. The bond makes no payments for the first six years, then pays $3,100 every six months over the subsequent eight years, and finally pays $3,400 every six months over the last six years. Bond N also has a face value of $30,000 and a maturity of 20 years; it makes no coupon payments over the life of the bond. The required return on both these bonds is 12% compounded semi-annually. What is the current price of Bond M and Bond N?

Answers

Answer:

a. Current price of Bond M = $24,062.31

b. Current price of Bond N = $2,916.67

Explanation:

a. Calculation of current price of Bond M

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of current price of Bond M (in bold red color).

In the attached excel file, the following are used:

r = required return = 12%

s = number of semiannuals in a year = 2

From the attached excel file, we have:

Current price of Bond M = $24,062.31

b. Calculation of current price of Bond N

This can be calculated using the following formula:

Current price of Bond N = Face value of bond N / (100% + Semiannual required return)^n ............................ (1)

Where;

Face value of bond N = $30,000

Semiannual required return = Required return / Number of semiannual in a year = 12% / 2 = 6%

n = Number of semiannuals = Number of years of maturity * Number of semiannual in a year = 20 * 2 = 40

Substituting the above into equation (1), we have:

Current price of Bond N = $30,000 / (100% + 6%)^40 = $2,916.67

A) Jury of executive opinion method
B) Dependence method
C) Time-series analysis
D) Correlation analysis

Answers

Answer: D. Correlation analysis

Explanation:

Since she estimated the future sales of these textbooks by measuring the interconnection between sales and announcement of courses that recommend them, she's using correlation analysis of sales forecast.

Correlation analysis is used to show the relationship that exist between two quantitative variables. We should note that in this case, the dependent variable is sales while the independent variables will be the factors that bring about the fluctuation in sales.

A high correlation simply implies that there's a strong relationship between the variables while a weak correlation implies that the variables are not related.

Fuqua Company’s sales budget projects unit sales of part 198Z of 10,000 units in January, 12,000 units in February, and 13,000 units in March. Each unit of part 198Z requires 4 pounds of materials, which cost $2 per pound. Fuqua Company desires its ending raw materials inventory to equal 40% of the next month’s production requirements, and its ending finished goods inventory to equal 20% of the next month’s expected unit sales. These goals were met at December 31, 2019.

Requried:
a. Prepare a projected budget for Jan and Feb 2017.
b. Prepare a direct material budget for Jan 2017.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the production budget for January, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

January:

Production= 10,000 + (12,000*0.2)

Production= 12,400 units

February:

Production=  12,000 + 13,000*0.2 - (12,000*0.2)

Production= 12,200

Now, the raw material budget:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 12,400*4 + (12,200*4)*0.4

Purchases= 69,120 pounds

Total cost= 69,120*2= $138,240

Answers

Answer:

Unitary costs= $133.38

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activities rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Assembly= 794,300 / 47,000= $16.9 per machine-hour

Processing orders= 61,280 / 1,600= $38.3 per order

Inspection= 109,681 / 1,430= $76.7 per inspection-hour

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Assembly= 16.9*1,130= 19,097

Processing orders= 38.3*115= 4,404.5

Inspection= 76.7*20= 1,534

Total allocated costs= $25,035.5

Finally, the unitary costs:

Unitary allocated costs= 25,035.5/500= $50.07

Unitary costs= 50.07 + 42 + 41.31

Unitary costs= $133.38

A coffee manufacturer is interested in whether the mean daily consumption of regular-coffee drinkers is less than that of decaffeinated-coffee drinkers. A random sample of 50 regular-coffee drinkers showed a mean of 4.35 cups per day. A sample of 40 decaffeinated-coffee drinkers showed a mean of 5.12 cups per day. Assume the population standard deviation for those drinking regular coffee is 1.20 cups per day and 1.36 cups per day for those drinking decaffeinated coffee. Perform an appropriate test at the 1% level of significance. Use the critical value approach.Compute the p-value.

Answers

Answer:

The P-Value ≅0 (zero).

Explanation:

From the given data we have

Regular coffee drinkers sample size = n1 = 50

Decaffeinated-coffee drinkers sample size = n2= 40

Regular coffee drinkers sample mean= x1 = 4.35

Decaffeinated-coffee drinkers sample mean = x2= 5.12

Regular coffee drinkers population standard deviation = σ1 = 1.2

Decaffeinated-coffee drinkers population standard deviation = σ2= 1.36

1) Formulate null and alternate hypothesis

H0: u1≥ u2 Ha: u1 < u2

The null hypothesis is that the mean of the regular coffee drinkers is greater or equal to the mean of decaffeinated-coffee drinkers

against the claim

the mean daily consumption of regular-coffee drinkers is less than that of decaffeinated-coffee drinkers.

2) The test statistic is

z= x1-x2/ sqrt( σ1 ²/n1 + σ2²/n2)

Putting the values

z = 4.35- 5.12/ sqrt( 1.44/50 + 1.8496/40)

z= -5.44

3) The significance level is 0.01

The critical region is Z < -2.33

4) Since the calculated value of z= -5.44 is less than the z ∝= -2.33 we reject H0.

5) the P-value can be calculated using the calculator.

The P-Value is < 0.00001.

P= 0

Which means that the claim is accepted that the mean of the regular coffee drinkers is less than the mean of decaffeinated-coffee drinkers.

Answers

Answer:

$7,000 Favourable

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The Step Company's sales-price variance is:

Using this formula

Sales Price Variance = (Actual Sales Price – Budgeted Sales Price) * Actual Sales Volume

Let plug in the formula

Sales Price Variance=[($ 147,000÷14,000)-(150,000/15,000)]*14000

Sales Price Variance = ($10.5 – $10) * 14000

Sales Price Variance = $7,000 Favorable

Joe King has an annual income of $240,000. Joe is buying a $400,000 house in a very desirable area, sought after by buyers. He applies for a loan at the bank and is approved for fully amortizing 30-year FRM at an annual rate of 3.40%, with monthly payments, compounded monthly. The bank will not lend more than 80% LTV. The appraisal indicates the house is worth $375,000. Assuming he does not want PMI What is the biggest mortgage Joe can get

Answers

Answer:

Joe King

The biggest mortgage Joe can get $300,000 (80% of $375,000).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Joe King's annual income = $240,000

Cost of purchasing a house = $400,000

Bank highest limit = 80% LTV

Appraised worth of house = $375,000

80% of $375,000 = $300,000

b) 80% LTV means 80% of the loan to the property value (LTV).  It is essentially the size of the mortgage that the bank is prepared to offer Joe in relation to the value of the property he is purchasing.  In this instance, the appraised value of the property is $375,000.  The 80% LTV will be equal to $300,000 ($375,000 * 80%).
