Gion Company is considering eliminating its windows division, which reported an operating loss for the recent year of $111,000. Division sales for the year were $1,170,000 and its variable costs were $1,035,000. The fixed costs of the division were $245,000. If the windows division is dropped, 60% of the fixed costs allocated to it could be eliminated. The impact on Gion’s operating income from eliminating this business segment would be:
Answer:
$12,000 increase
Explanation:
The computation of the impact on operating income from eliminating this business segment is shown below:
= Lost revenue + Variable cost avoided + Eliminated Fixed cost
= -$1,170,000 + $1,035,000 + $245,000 × 0.60
= -$1,170,000 + $1,035,000 + $147,000
= $12,000
The $12,000 represent the increase in operating income

Dr Unearned rent revenue $47,800
Cr Rent revenue $47,800 to record accrued rent revenue.
Explanation:
Contract value for one year $71,700
One month of rent $71,700/12 = $5,975

1. The Troller Corporation’s common stock has a beta of 1.15. If the risk-free rate is 3.5 percent and the expected return on the market is 11 percent, what is the company’s cost of equity capital?
Answer:
Cost of equity capital is 0.12125 or 12.125%
Explanation:
The cost of equity capital or the required rate of return is the minimum rate of return expected by the investors to invest in the stock of the company. The cost of equity capital can be calculated using the CAPM equation. The formula for CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
r is the cost of equity capital or required rate of returnrRF is the risk free raterM is the return on Marketr = 0.035 + 1.15 * (0.11 - 0.035)
r = 0.12125 or 12.125%

20. A country with a surplus of oil but limited access to fresh water decides to trade resources with a country w
exchange these resources without any money involved. This exchange of products is best described as
O A. countertrading.
O B. mutual import.
O C. dual export.
O D. resource
Answer:
The correct answer is A. This exchange of products is best described as countertrading.
Explanation:
In international trade, countertrading is the process by which countries trade with each other through the exchange of products, as in barter, and not through the use of money to pay for such goods or services. That is, a country gives a series of goods that another country needs, in exchange for goods that said country produces and it does not have.
This type of international trade has the advantage of not altering the trade balance of nations, which remains neutral given that both countries deliver goods valued equally. Thus, fair and equitable trade is reached, although not always possible since the needs of one party do not always match those of the other.

A letter of credit is a promise given by an issuing bank at the request of its customer in which the bank promises to pay the beneficiary the states amount within a specified period of time. It has three elements – the beneficiary/seller, the buyer/applicant and the issuing bank.
While A banker's acceptance is a short term instrument given by a bank that obligates itself to make a payment at a later date. It is like a post-dated check.
Jack's adjusted basis in his passive activity is $30,000 at the beginning of the year. His losses from the activity is $8,000. What is Jack's deduction for the year
Answer:
No deduction
Explanation:
A passive activity is that event, in which the taxpayer did not participate significantly in the sector. In the other hand if the taxpayer is not having passive income though-out the the year, so a taxpayer will not get any deduction of passive losses which is available.
Therefore as per the above explanation, the passive loss is 8,000 and as per the situation, Jack is not eligible to get any deduction.
Match each word with the phrase: diversification- the period of time after people end their working careers, guaranteed- to promise and deliver
Answer:
*Diversification => The practice of putting money into more than one kind of investment
*Guarantee => To promise and deliver a future result
*Return => The money earned on an investment in a certain period of time
*Liquidity => The ability to quickly convert something into cash
*Retirement => The period of time after people end their working careers
Explanation:
1. Diversification is the act of investing resources into different areas or sectors of an economy. For example, a company that produces mainly clothing and textile materials can decide to diversify by investing in other areas like agriculture or food processing.
2. Guarantee is usually the ability of a company to promise, for example, certain qualities of a product to the consumers, and also matching the promise with the actual fulfillment of what was promised to the consumers.
3. Return: for example, if I invest $5000 on a restaurant business, and after like 12 months, the money generated on the money invested is my returns.
4. Liquidity: for example, if I have harvested cash crops, and I need money immediately, I can easily generate cash by selling them. The ease at which an asset can be converted to cash is what is termed liquidity.
5. Retirement: virtually all careers have a set time when their employees are due for retirment. The period when one leaves a career officially, after spending a certain period of years in service, is what is termed retirement.

n order to run the business Economan gave up a chance to earn $110,000 in a job at the local Space Agency. In addition, he estimates that instead of investing in his business he could have put money in the bank and earned $5,000 interest. A) What is Economan’s accounting profit?
Answer: $100,000
Explanation:
His accounting profit is his Revenue less his Explicit Costs. Explicit costs are those costs that have an actual payment/ physical cash attached to them.
Accounting Profit = Revenue - Explicit Costs
= 230,000 - ( 10,000 + 100,000 + 20,000)
= 230,000 - 130,000
= $100,000

Define the role of the mathematical concepts of maximization and equilibrium in microeconomic theory.
Answer:
Functions and graphs are two mathematical concepts that are heavily used in microeconomics.
Explanation:
1. Functions
Economics is full of functions: manufacturing functions, distribution functions, parameter values, components for welfare programs, and so on. A function is indeed a connexion between several sets of data, such that the second set correlates exactly to one variable for each value in one collection.
2. Graphs
By visualising it in a graph we can enhance the innate knowledge of a practices and organisational performance. In a chart, independent variable effects are generally read off the horizontal axis, and the dependent variable effects are generally read off another vertical axis. And for variables, each position in the line matrix correlates to a set of variables
Setrakian Industries needs to raise $96.2 million to fund a new project. The company will sell bonds that have a coupon rate of 6.04 percent paid semiannually and that mature in 30 years. The bonds will be sold at an initial YTM of 6.85 percent and have a par value of $2,000. How many bonds must be sold to raise the necessary funds
Answer:
53,597 Bonds
Explanation:
The first is to determine how much each bond of $2,000 face value is sold using the excel pv function below:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is the yield to maturity which is 6.85% divided by 2
nper is the number of semiannual coupons the bond would pay i.e 30*2
pmt is the amount of semiannual coupon i.e $2,000*6.04%*6/12=60.4
fv is the face value of $2,000 per bond
=-pv(6.85%/2,60,60.40,2000)= 1,794.86
a bond is $ 1,794.86
number of bonds=$96,200,000/$1,794.86= 53,597

Paying suppliers 175,000 500 invoices
Ensuring the factory 300,000 40,000 square feet
Designing packaging 75,000 2 models
Required:
1. Compute a single plantwide overhead rate, assuming that the company assigns overhead based on 125,000 budgeted direct labor hours
2. In January 2017, the Deluxe model required 2,500 direct labor hours and the basic model required 6,000 direct labor hours. Assign overhead costs to each model using the single plantwide overhead rate.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
handling materials $625,000
Inspecting product $900,800
Processing purchase orders $105,000
Paying suppliers $175,000
Ensuring the factory $300,000
Designing packaging $75,000
Total overhead= $2,180,800
First, we need to calculate the plantwide predetermined overhead rate:
Estimated direct-labor hours= 125,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,180,800/125,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $17.45 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Deluxe= 2,500*17.45= $43,625
Basic= 6,000*17.45= $104,700
The total value (debt plus equity) of Wilson Dover Inc. is $500 million and the face value of its 1-year coupon debt is $200 million. The volatility (σ) of Wilson Dover's total value is 0.60, and the risk-free rate is 5%. Assume that N(d1) = 0.9720 and N(d2) = 0.9050. Refer to the data for Wilson Dover Inc. What is the value (in millions) of Wilson Dover's debt if its equity is viewed as an option?
Answer:
$313.81
Explanation:
Calculation for the value (in millions) of Wilson Dover's debt if its equity is viewed as an option
Total value = P = $500.0
Debt = X = $200.0
Volatility (σ) = 0.6
rRF = 5%
d1 = 1.910485
N(d1) = 0.9720
d2= 1.310485
N(d2)=0.9050
Using this formula
Vs= PN(d1) − Xe−RFtN(d2)
Let plug in the formula
Vs= $500(0.9720) − $200e−0.05(1)(0.9050)
Vs= $485.98 − $172.17
Vs= $313.81
Therefore the value (in millions) of Wilson Dover's debt if its equity is viewed as an option will be $313.81
Placker Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on total fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $155,000, variable manufacturing overhead of $3.40 per machine-hour, and 50,000 machine-hours. Recently, Job A881 was completed with the following characteristics: Total machine-hours 100 Direct materials $ 645 Direct labor cost $2,300 The total job cost for Job A881 is closest to:
Answer:
Total cost of job A881= $9,445
Explanation:
The total cost of Job 881 would be the sum of the direct cost and the manufacturing overhead
Total cost = Direct material + direct labour + variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed Overhead
Direct material and labour represent cost of material and labour incurred wholly and directly for Job A881
The overhead absorption rate(OAR) would be used to charge fixed manufacturing overhead to Job A881
The absorbed overhead = OAR × actual machine hours used for Job A881
OAR = budgeted overhead ÷ budgeted machine hours
OAR = $155,000 ÷ 50,000 machine hours = $3.1 per machine hour
Fixed manufacturing overhead absorbed = $3.1 × 100 = $3,100
Variable manufacturing overhead = $3.40 × 100 = $3,400
Total cost of job A881= 645 + 2,300 + 3,400 + 3,100 = $9,445
Total cost of job A881= $9,445

" Fiona wants to sell a local advertising calendar. She knows there are 1000 households in her community, and estimates 30 percent will buy the calendar. The printing company will charge a $100 set up fee and calendars will cost $1 each to print. What price will she need to charge to cover all costs and make a $500 profit. Group of answer choices"
Answer:
The answer is $3
Explanation:
Pr = Q(P-VC) - FC
Where Pr is the profit made
Q is the quantity of calendar to be sold
P is the price to be charged
VC is the variable cost
FC is the fixed cost
Quantity of calendar to be produced is
30 percent of 1000
0.3 x 1000 units
= 300 units
500 = 300(x-1) - 100.
500 = 300x - 300 - 100
300x = 500 + 300 + 100
300x = 900
x = 900/300
x = 3
The price to be charged to cover all costs and make a $500 profit is therefore $3
Suppose Azerbaijan decides to increase its production of nails by 20. What is the opportunity cost of this decision
Answer: c. 5 bolts.
Explanation:
From the graph we see that the opportunity cost of making 80 nails is 20 bolts.
Opportunity cost of making 1 nail is;
80/80 : 20/80
1 : ¼
If 1 nail has an opportunity cost of ¼ bolts then making 20 extra nails would cost;
= 20 * ¼
= 5 bolts.
If a player chooses a mixed strategy in a Nash equilibrium, this implies that the payoff from using that mixed strategy is the same as the payoff from using any of the pure strategies in it. If the statement is true try to reason why, if it is false find a counterexample.
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
The concept of "Nash equilibrium" is been by economist and also by "gamers" in game theory. Nash equilibrium is so good for making decisions and the determination of strategies.
In playing this game, the players or participants can use the pure strategy or the mixed strategy. The mixed strategy is the use of different strategies randomly.
"If a player chooses a mixed strategy in a Nash equilibrium, this implies that the payoff from using that mixed strategy is the same as the payoff from using any of the pure strategies in it".
The statement given above is FALSE because the PAYOFF WILL INCREASE IF WE ARE TO PLAY A MIXED STRATEGY.
For instance if we have a head of 1 and -1, and a tail of -1 and 1, the payoff for pure strategy is likely one or minus one but for a mixed strategy it could be zero.
2. Lereve Company has recorded the following information about the results of its operations for the fourth quarter: Sales revenues Variable cost of sales Fixed costs: Common Traceable Total Company $200,000 $ 60,000 $100,000 $ 50,000 Western Division $ 80,000 30,000 25,000 20,000 Eastern Division $120,000 30,000 75,000 30,000 Based on this information, prepare a segmented income statement for the quarter and comment on the results.
Answer:
Lereve Company
Segmented Income Statement for the fourth quarter:
Total Company Western Division Eastern Division
Sales revenues $200,000 $80,000 $120,000
Variable cost of sales 60,000 30,000 30,000
Contribution $140,000 $50,000 $90,000
Fixed costs:
Common $100,000 $25,000 $75,000
Traceable 50,000 20,000 30,000
Net Income (Loss) ($10,000) $5,000 ($15,000)
The results show that the Eastern Division made a net loss of $15,000 and the Western Division raked in a net income of $5,000, which resulted in the company-wide net loss of $10,000. This loss could be traced to the allocated common fixed costs of the division, because its contribution to fixed costs was substantial and better than the Western Division's.
Explanation:
When the results of the operations of a divisional company like Lereve Company are prepared in segmental form, the performance pictures become clearer. Management is enabled to focus on the segments or the factors that are generating the loss to the company. Perhaps, as in this case, the problem may not be with the division, but the allocation of fixed costs to the divisions. It can still be traced to the company as a whole, since it is generating much more fixed costs than it could afford from its revenue.

A firm pays Pam $40 per hour to assemble personal computers. Each day, Pam can assemble 4 computers if she works 1 hour, 7 computers if she works 2 hours, 9 computers if she works 3 hours, and 10 computers if she works 4 hours. Pam cannot work more than 4 hours day. Each computer consists of a motherboard, a hard drive, a case, a monitor, a keyboard, and a mouse. The total cost of these parts is $600 per computer. What is the marginal cost of producing the computers that Pam can assemble during her 2nd hour of work
Answer:
$1,840
Explanation:
In order to calculate the Marginal cost of producing the computers in 2nd hour of work, we need to add the marginal cost of computer and marginal cost of wage in the 2nd hour of work.
MC = MC(computers) + MC(wage)
MC = $1,800(w) + $40
MC = $1,840
Working
MC (computers ) = 3 x 600$ = $1,800
hour computers assembled
1st 4
2nd 7
If pam works 2 hours she can assemble 7 computers but she already assembled 4 computers in 1st hour.
So the 2nd-hour computers will be 3 ( 7 - 4) computers.
