Economic costs of unemployment
Consider a hypothetical economy in which potential output is $200 billion and the natural rate of unemployment is 4%. The current unemployment rate is 5.6%. Since the unemployment rate is greater than the natural rate of unemployment, the economy's actual GDP will be______ potential GDP.
According to Okun's law, the economy's GDP gap is billion. The burden of an increase in the economy-wide unemployment rate can differ widely across regions and across different groups of people. For example, in the United States, the jobless rate among workers with only a high school diploma has tended to be________ than the jobless rate among college graduates.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: less than; higher

Explanation:

Since the unemployment rate is greater than the natural rate of unemployment, the economy's actual GDP will be less than potential GDP.

...the jobless rate among workers with only a high school diploma has tended to be higher than the jobless rate among college graduates.

When the economy is at its natural rate of unemployment, it means that the economy is producing at potential GDP. If however, the unemployment rate is more than this natural rate, it means that the economy is facing a downturn which is causing companies to not employ as much labor. Actual GDP is therefore lower than Potential GDP.

Workers with more specialized skills will usually feel the impact of an increase in unemployment less those with more general skills will. For this reason, college graduates will see less unemployment than those with only a high school diploma.

1. The federal government is considering selling tracts of federally owned land to private developers and using the revenues to provide aid to victims of an earthquake in a foreign country. How would this policy affect the levels of federal revenues, expenditures, and deficits under a cash accounting system

Answers

Answer:

The responses to this question can be defined as follows:

Explanation:

In a currency system, its current amount of the debt is influenced by the cash financial statements, and sales will rise by amount and revenue would be compensated by spending increases on foreign aid. The financial accounting system must realize that its government sold a well-established resource and increased the overall scarcity.

Its capital account weakness relates to an undistorted added money from the currency exchange that would offset a decrease throughout the estimate of the benefits of Congress and lead to an increase in the utilization of the shortfall quickly.

Haylock Inc. bases its manufacturing overhead budget on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,500 direct labor-hours will be required in August. The variable overhead rate is $1.50 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $100,410 per month, which includes depreciation of $8,940. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The August cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:

Answers

Answer:

Overhead cash disbursement= $102,720

Explanation:

First, we need to allocate variable overhead using the following formula:

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

Allocated MOH= 1.5*7,500

Allocated MOH= $11,250

Now, we can calculate the cash disbursement for August. Depreciation is not a cash expense. We should deduct it from fixed costs.

Overhead cash disbursement= 11,250 + 100,410 - 8,940

Overhead cash disbursement= $102,720

Sales $18,169.3
Food and packaging $ 6,129.7
Payroll 4,756.0
Occupancy (rent, depreciation, etc.) 4,402.6
General, selling, and administrative expenses 2,487.9
$17,776.2
Income from operations $ 393.1
Assume that the variable costs consist of food and packaging, payroll, and 40% of the general, selling, and administrative expenses.
a. What is McDonald's contribution margin? Round to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place).
b. What is McDonald's contribution margin ratio? Round to one decimal place.
c. How much would income from operations increase if same-store sales increased by $500 million for the coming year, with no change in the contribution margin ratio or fixed costs? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place).

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Variable food and packaging = $6,129.7

Variable payroll = $4,756.0

Variable general, selling and administrative expenses = 40% × $2,487.9 = $995.16

Fixed general, selling and administrative expenses = 60% × $2,487.9 = $1,492.74

Fixed occupancy = $4,402.6

Total fixed cost = $1,492.84 + $4,402.6 = $5,895.34

Total variable cost = Variable food and packaging + Variable payroll + Variable general, selling and administrative expenses

= $6,129.7 + $4,756 + $995.16

= $11,880.86

a. McDonald's contribution margin

= Sales - Variable cost

= $18,169.3 - $11,880.86

= $6,288.44

b. McDonald's contribution margin

= Contribution margin / Sales

= $6,288.44 / $18,169.3

= 34.61%

c. Increase in operating income

When using a physical-volume measure, what is the approximate amount of joint costs that will be allocated to cream and liquid skim

Answers

Question Completion:

Production:

Cream = 443,000 gallons

Liquid skim = 354,500 gallons

Total production = 797,500 gallons

Answer:

The approximate amount of joint costs that will be allocated to cream and liquid skim =

Cream = $1,305,392

Liquid skim = $1,044,608

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Direct materials purchased = 820,000 gallons

Total yield at split-off = 797,500

Joint costs = $2,350,000

                                        Cream       Liquid Skim  

Sales units at split-off   424,000     344,500 gallons

Selling price per unit          $130            $115

Production Cream       443,000     354,500 gallons

Allocation of joint costs, using a physical volume measure:

Cream = $2,350,000 * 443,000/797,500 = $1,305,392

Liquid Skim = $2,350,000 * 354,500/797,500 = $1,044,608

Budgeted production in units for January, February, and March were 315, 318, and 362 respectively. Each unit requires 3 direct labor hours and Galactic’s hourly labor rate is $16 per hour. The company’s variable overhead is $5.00 per unit produced and its fixed overhead is $5,600 per month..

Required:
a. Determine Galactic's direct labor budget for the first quarter.
b. Determine Galactic's manufacturing overhead budget for the first quarter

Answers

Answer:

Direct labor costs= $47,760

total manufacturing overhead= $10,575

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 315 + 318 + 362= 995 units

Each unit requires 3 direct labor hours.

Hourly rate= $16

Variable overhead per unit= $5

Fixed overhead= $5,600

First, we need to calculate the direct labor hours:

Direct labor hours= 995*3= 2,985

Now, the direct labor costs:

Direct labor costs= $47,760

Finally, the total manufacturing overhead:

total manufacturing overhead= 5,600 + 5*995

total manufacturing overhead= $10,575

Total demand for Oxy is 10,000 units and for Sonic is 6,000 units. Machine time is a scarce resource. During the year, 50,000 machine hours are available. Oxy requires 4 machine hours per unit, while Sonic requires 2.5 machine hours per unit. What is the maximum contribution margin Garrison can achieve during a year

Answers

Answer:

$444,250

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the maximum contribution margin Garrison can achieve during a year

First step is to calculate the Contribution margin per hour

Oxy sonic

Sales $75 $44

Less: variable cost $40 $21

=Contribution margin per unit 35 23

÷Machine hour per unit 4 2.5

=Contribution margin per hour $8.75 $9.2

Ranking 2 1

Second step is to calculate the Hour required for sonic

Hour required for sonic = 6,000*2.5

Hour required for sonic= 15,000 hours

Third step is to calculate the Hour available for oxy

Hour available for oxy = 50,000-15,000

Hour available for oxy = 35,000 hours

Fourth step is to calculate the Production of Oxy

Production of Oxy = 35,000/4

Production of Oxy= 8,750 units

Now let calculate the Maximum contribution margin

Maximum contribution margin = 8,750*35+ 6000*23

Maximum contribution margin =306,250+,138,000

Maximum contribution margin = $444,250

Therefore the maximum contribution margin Garrison can achieve during a year is $444,250

Explanation:

A warranty can be defined as a written promise or guarantee made by a manufacturer, lessor or seller about the identity or quality of goods and services or a property to a purchaser, promising him or her to repair or replace it if necessary within a specified time frame.

An express warranty is typically considered to be an affirmative promise about the quality or characteristics of an item that is being sold to a buyer and as such it is binding and enforceable by law.

Inside the packaging of a new bread machine she purchases, Ginger finds a paper stating, "All our products will be replaced within the first year if they fail to operate correctly. However, consumer misuse or abuse will effectively end this policy." This is an express warranty.

It recognized by the Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC") as explicit, stated promises by a manufacturer.

What is the balance sheet account that gives rise to a temporary difference in this situation

Answers

Answer: Unearned subscription revenue.

Explanation:

Tax is made on a cash basis which means that a transaction is eligible for taxation once cash has been paid for it. Businesses however have to use the Accrual basis which only record transactions in the period that they have been incurred.

In this scenario, there is more subscription payment in cash than the company recognized which means that the company has not yet delivered the service they were paid for and so could not recognize the subscriptions. They will however be taxed on those amounts because the cash has come in.

The account giving this temporary difference is therefore the Unearned Subscription Revenue account.

Answers

Answer:

P0 = $11.968577  rounded off to $11.97

Explanation:

The dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under DDM is,

P0 = D1 / (1+r)  +  D2 / (1+r)^2  +  ...  +  Dn / (1+r)^n  +  [(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]

Where,

D1, D2, ... , Dn is the dividend expected in Year 1,2 and so on g is the constant growth rate in dividends r is the discount rate or required rate of return

P0 = 0.37 / (1+0.09)  +  0.42 / (1+0.09)^2  +  0.57 / (1+0.09)^3  +  

0.87 / (1+0.09)^4  +  [(0.87 * (1+0.028) / (0.09 - 0.028)) / (1+0.09)^4]

Explanation:

This is the remaining part of the question :

Required: Calculate depreciation expense of the equipment for the first year, using each of the following methods

1. Straight-line.

2.Double Declining Method

3.Activity Based

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(43,000 - 4000) / 10 = $3900

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2/10 = 0.2

Depreciation expense = 0.2 x $43,000 = $8600

Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x  (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

(1200 / 13,000) x (43,000 - 4000) = $3600

b. Compute diluted earnings per share for 2018. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

Soliman Corporation

1. Basic EPS

= $6.18 per share

2. Diluted EPS

= $5.23 per share

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Convertible Preferred Stock = 5,000 or 10,000 Common Shares

Common Stock:

January 1, 2018 =                  25,000

May 1, 2018 Issued                 9,000

July 1, 2018 Treasury            (6,000)

September 1, 2018 Treasury 6,000

Total outstanding                34,000

Converted preferred stock 10,000

Total outstanding               44,000

2018 Net Income =    $230,000

Preferred dividend        20,000 ($4 * 5,000)

Income for Common $210,000

Basic Earnings per share = $210,000/34,000 = $6.18

Diluted Earnings per share = $230,000/44,000 = $5.23
