Answers

Answer:

Part 1

Suppose that nominal GDP was $11 trillion in 2040 in Mordor. In 2050, nominal GDP was $15 trillion in Mordor. The price level fell 3% between 2040 and 2050, and population growth was 2%. Between 2040 and 2050 in Mordor,

nominal GDP growth was 36.4%

and economic growth was 37.4%.

total nominal growth rate:

(15 - 11) / 11 = 0.3636 = 36.4%

economic growth = nominal GDP growth rate - change in price level - population growth rate = 36.36% - (-3%) - 2% = 37.36%

Part 2

Suppose that nominal GDP was $20 trillion in 2040 in Mordor. In 2050, nominal GDP was $18 trillion in Mordor. The price level rose 3% between 2040 and 2050, and population growth was 2%.

Between 2040 and 2050 in Mordor, nominal GDP growth was -10%

and economic growth was -15%

total nominal growth rate:

(18 - 20) / 20 = -0.1 = -10%

economic growth = nominal GDP growth rate - change in price level - population growth rate = -10% - 3% - 2% = -15%

Part 3

Suppose that nominal GDP was $8 trillion in 2040 in Mordor. In 2050, nominal GDP was $10 trillion in Mordor. The price level rose 18.0% between 2040 and 2050, and population growth was 13.0%.

Between 2040 and 2050 in Mordor, nominal GDP growth was 25%

and economic growth was -6%.

total nominal growth rate:

(10 - 8) / 8 = 0.25 = 25%

economic growth = nominal GDP growth rate - change in price level - population growth rate = 25% - 18% - 13% = -6%

Gold Corp. sells office furniture. In 2020, it sold 200 desks for $500 each. For each desk sold, Gold Corp. distributed a 50% discount coupon for purchase of an office chair valid for two months. Based on historical experience, Gold Corp. expects that approximately 20% of the coupons will be utilized. The chairs purchased with the coupons are priced at $150 and normally discounted 10%. What would be the stand-alone sales price used by Gold Corp. for the coupon when allocating the $500 transaction price to the performance obligations

Answers

Answer:

Gold Corp.

The stand-alone sales price is $135

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Selling price of desks = $500 per unit

Selling price of chairs = $150 per unit

Combined price of desks and chairs = $650

50% discount coupon on chairs = $75 (50% * $150)

Normal discount price of chairs = $135 ($150 * 90%)

Combined price of desks and discounted chair = $575 ($500 + $75)

Allocation of transaction price:

Desk = $575 * $500/$635 = $452.76

Chair = $575 * $135/$635 =  $122.24

Total                                     = $575

Two methods can be used for producing solar panels for electric power generation. Method 1 will have an initial cost of $550,000, an AOC of $160,000 per year, and $125,000 salvage value after its 3-year life. Method 2 will cost $830,000 with an AOC of $120,000, and a $240,000 salvage value after its 5-year life. Assume your boss asked you to determine which method is better, but she wants the analysis done over a 3-year planning period. You estimate the salvage value of method 2 will be 35% higher after 3 years than it is after 5 years. If the MARR is 10% per year, which method should the company select?

Answers

Answer:

method 1 should be selected.

Explanation:

for method 1:

p = 550000

a = 160000

s = 125000

I = 10%

n = 3 years

aw = -550000(a/p, 0.10,3)-160000+125000(a/f,0.10,3)

= -550000(0.4021)-160000+125000(0.3021)

= -221155-160000+37762.5

= -343.392.5 dollars

for method 2:

salvage value = 240000x1.35

= 324000

p= 830000

a = 120000

s = 324000

I = 0.10 or 10%

n = 3

aw = -830000(a/p,0.10,3)-120000+324000(a/f,10%,3)

= -830000(0.4021)-120000+324000(0.3021)

= -333743-120000+97880.4

= -355862.6 dollars

after comparing both values, method 1 is better

A particular raw material is available to a company at three different prices, depending on the size of the order: Less than 100 pounds $ 25 per pound 100 pounds to 3,999 pounds $ 24 per pound 4,000 pounds or more $ 23 per pound The cost to place an order is $40. Annual demand is 2,700 units. Holding (or carrying) cost is 25 percent of the material price. What is the economic order quantity to buy each time, and its total cost

Answers

Answer:

EOQ = 201 units

total cost = $66,007.35

Explanation:

we can calculate the EOQ using 2 different prices (it makes no sense to use $23 since the minimum order size is larger than annual demand):

EOQ = √[(2 x S x D) / H]

S = order costD = annual demandH = holding cost

$25 per unit

S = $45

D = 2,700

H = $25 x 25% = $6.25

EOQ = √[(2 x 45 x 2,700) / 6.25] = 197.18

$24 per unit

S = $45

D = 2,700

H = $24 x 25% = $6

EOQ = √[(2 x 45 x 2,700) / 6] = 201.25 ≈ 201 units

since both EOQs are higher than 100 units, then we must use $24 per unit

you have to make 2,700 / 201 = 13.43

total cost = (13.43 x $45) + (2,700 x $24) + (201 x $6 x 0.5) = $604.35 + $64,800 + $603 = $66,007.35

Between January 2010 and January 2016, U.S. employment increased by 12.1 million workers, but the number of unemployed workers declined by only 7.3 million. True or False: The labor force has remained unchanged.

Answers

Answer:

False, the labor forced increased

Explanation:

labor force = total number of people actively working (employed) or searching for jobs (unemployed)

lets say L = the total labor force in 2010

by 2016, L had increased by 12.1 million and decreased by 7.3 million

net change of L = 12.1 - 7.3 = 4.8 more million people were part of the labor force in 2016 than in 2010.

Bond Ratings. Companies pay rating agencies such as Moody’s and S&P to rate their bonds, and the costs can be substantial. However, companies are not required to have their bonds rated in the first place; doing so is strictly voluntary. Why so you think they do so?

Answers

Answer:

Bond Ratings

Companies employ rating agencies such as Moody's and S&P to rate their bonds despite the substantial costs and their voluntariness because ratings by these agencies add a badge of honor to the bonds.  It gives investors some level of assurance that the bonds will be honored at maturity and that the pricing is right, given the company's credit risk.

Explanation:

Credit risk rating agencies assess the credit risk of a company or financial product as formal and credit-worthy benchmarks for investment decisions.  While companies pay huge costs to have these ratings conducted by the big three, including Moody's, S&P, and Fitch, the main value goes to the potential investors who require the information to decide whether to invest in the rated companies.

Other fixed costs are expected to increase by 10 percent. Calculate the unit cost and the total cost if 5,750 meals are served next quarter

Answers

Answer:

$87,975

15.30

Explanation:

The computation of unit cost and total cost is shown below:-

Managers' salary ($22,000 + $6,450) $28,450

Rent $18,000

Depreciation on equipment $2,000

Other fixed cost (3,000 × 1.1) 3,300

Total Fixed cost $51,750

Total Cost = $36,225 + $51,750

= $87,975

Unit Cost = 87,975 ÷ 5,750

Answers

Answer:

$10 million

Explanation:

Calculation for How much additional 10 percent debt can Catharine, Inc issue

First step is to find the EBT

EBT = $3.0 / (1 - 0.40)

EBT= $5.0

Second step is to find the EBIT

EBIT = $5.0 + $1.0

EBIT= $6.0

Third step is to find the Interest permitted using this formula

Interest permitted = EBIT / Times interest earned

Let plug in the formula

Interest permitted = $6.0 / 3.0

Interest permitted = $2.0

Fourth step is to find the Additional interest amount

Additional interest = $2.0 - $1.0

Additional interest = $1.0

Last step is to compute the Additional debt amount

Additional debt = $1.0 / 0.1

Additional debt= $10 million

Therefore the Additional debt will be $10 million

Answers

Answer:

$12

Explanation:

Moore Company purchased an item for inventory that cost $20 per unit and was priced to sell at $34. It was determined that the cost to sell is $22 per unit. Using the lower of cost or net realizable value rule, what amount should be?

Cost per Unit = $20

Sale per unit = $34

Disposal cost = $22

Net realizable value per unit = Sale per unit - Disposal cost

Net realizable value per unit = $34 - $22

Net realizable value per unit = $12

Using the LCM method, $12 should be reported on the balance sheet for inventory.

Bluebird Mfg. has received a special one-time order for 15,000 bird feeders at $3 per unit. Bluebird currently produces and sells 75,000 units at $7.00 each. This level represents 80% of its capacity. Production costs for these units are $3.50 per unit, which includes $2.25 variable cost and $1.25 fixed cost. If Bluebird accepts this additional business, the effect on net income will be:

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $11,250

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production costs:

Variable= $2.25

Special offer:

Selling price= $3

Units= 15,000

Because it is a special offer, and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.

Effect on income= Number of units*unitary contribution margin

Unitary contribution margin= 3 - 2.25= $0.75

Effect on income= 15,000*0.75= $11,250

Teakap, Inc., has current assets of $1,456,312 and total assets of $4,812,369 for the year ending September 30, 2016. It also has current liabilities of $1,041,012, common equity of $1,500,000, and retained earnings of $1,468,347. What is the value of long term debt?

Answers

Answer:

$803,010

Explanation:

Calculation for the value of long term debt

First step is to find the Stockholders' equity

Stockholders' equity = $1,500,000 + $1,468,347 Stockholders' equity= $2,968,347

Last step is to find the Long-term debt

Using this formula

Value of Long-term debt= Total assets – Current liabilities – Stockholders' equity

Let plug in the formula.

Value of Long-term debt= $4,812,369 – $1,041,012 – $2,968,347

Value of Long-term debt = $803,010

Therefore the Value of Long-term debt

will be $803,010

Flo enters into a contract with Global Shipping Ltd. to insure and ship a painting from France to the United States for a certain price. Global makes a mistake in adding the costs, which results in a contract price that is $1,000 less than the true cost. Most likely, a court would a. enforce the contract as is. b. allow the parties to rescind the contract. c. award damages to Global for the mistake. d. award damages to Flo for the mistake.

Answers

Answer:

b. Allow the parties to rescind the contract

Explanation:

Flo enters into a contract with Global Shipping Ltd. to insure and ship a painting from France to the United States at a certain amount mentioned in the contract. However, Global Shipping Ltd. makes a mistake in calculating the costs. As a result, a contract price is equal to the amount that is $1,000 less than the true cost. Most likely, a court would allow the parties to rescind the contract.

Option b. is correct.

Your classmates from the University of Chicago are planning to go to Miami for spring break, and you are undecided about whether you should go with them. The round-trip airfare is $600, but you have a frequent-flyer coupon worth $500 that you could use to pay part of the airfare. All other costs for the vacation are exactly $900. The most you would be willing to pay for the trip is $1,400. Your only alternative use for your frequent-flyer coupon is for your trip to Atlanta two weeks after the break to attend your sister's graduation, which your parents are forcing you to attend. The Chicago-Atlanta round-trip airfare is $450. If the Chicago-Atlanta round-trip air fare were $350, should you use the coupon to go to Miami?

Answers

Answer:

You should use the discount coupon to pay for the Chicago-Miami trip. Not considering the personal motivations for the trip, the coupon is worth $500. The cost of flying is $600, so you will only pay $100 yourself. You will be spending $900 + $1000 = $1,000 in total.

The opportunity cost of using the coupon is $350 (the cost of the round trip to Atlanta). Even if you add the $350 to the $1,000 expense, the total is $1,350, less than your $1,400 maximum budget.

United Parcel Service, Inc. (Ticker: UPS (Links to an external site.)) estimates its cost for a distribution center at $18.63 million. Management has decided to invest $1.1 million a quarter to fund the project. Assuming that the firm can earn a return of 6.25 percent, compounded quarterly, on its savings, how long does the firm have to wait before expanding its operations

Answers

Answer:

It will take 182.44 quarters to reach $18,630,000.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future Value= $18,630,000

Initial Investment= $1,100,000

Interest rate= 0.0625/4= 0.01563

To calculate the time required to reach the objective, we need to use the following formula:

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)

n= ln(18,630,000 / 1,100,000) / ln (1.01563)

n= 182,44

It will take 182.44 quarters to reach $18,630,000.
