Answer:
The Kreidler Kids company has a producer surplus of $500.
Explanation:
Producer surplus can be described or calculated as the amount a producer is willing to supply or sell goods and the actual amount the supplier received.
For this question, the producer surplus can therefore be calculated as follows:
The amount Kreidler Kids company can produce swing sets = $1,000
The amount paid by Kendra for the the swing set = $1,500
Producer surplus = The amount paid by Kendra for the the swing set - The amount Kreidler Kids company can produce swing sets = $1,500 - $1,000 = $500
Therfore, the Kreidler Kids company has a producer surplus of $500.

If a company is pursuing a low-cost strategy, it is important that employees only perform duties specified in their job description. Group of answer choices True False
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
Business strategy sets the overall direction for the business; it focuses on defining how a business would achieve its goals, objectives, and mission; as well as the funds and material resources required to implement or execute the business plan.
A low-cost strategy can be defined as a strategic pricing plan adopted by a business firm or organisation in order to make the price of their goods and services cheaper to enhance demand and increase their competitiveness i.e market share.
If a company is pursuing a low-cost strategy, it does not mean that it is important that employees only perform duties specified in their job description.
The production possibility frontier is used to illustrate the concept of A) the laissez-faire economy. B) opportunity costs. C) equilibrium. D) aggregate demand.
Answer:
B) opportunity costs.
Explanation:
The production possibility frontier is used to illustrate the concept of opportunity costs. The production possibility frontier shows the combination of goods which can be produced by making use of all the available resources in an economy. In order to produce an extra unit of one good, some amount of other good has to be sacrificed. This is known as opportunity cost.
The production possibility frontier is applied for illustrating the concept of option b. opportunity costs.
What are opportunity costs?
The production possibility frontier represent the combination of the goods that need to be generated via using the resources that are available that time. For generating the additional unit of one good, the some value of the other goods need to be sacrificed. So for that we know as the opportunity cost.
Therefore, we can conclude that the option b is correct.

Prince Company owns 104,000 of the 130,000 shares outstanding of Serf Corporation. Serf Corporation sold equipment to Prince Company on January 1, 2017 for $740,000. The equipment was originally purchased by Serf Corporation on January 1, 2016 for $1,280,000 and at that time its estimated depreciable life was 8 years. The equipment is estimated to have a remaining useful life of four years on January 1, 2017. Both companies use the straight-line method to depreciate equipment. In 2018 Prince Company reported net income from its independent operations of $3,270,000, and Serf Corporation reported net income of $820,000 and declared dividends of $60,000. Prince Company uses the cost method to record the investment in Serf Company.

Explanation:
The sale of equipment to Prince Company is an intragroup transaction and must be eliminated from Prince Company Consolidated Financial Statements as follows :
Carrying Amount before sale :
Carrying Amount = Cost - Accumulated Depreciation
= $1,280,000 - ($1,280,000 ÷ 8)
= $1,120,000
Unrealized gain / loss =Selling Price - Carrying Amount
= $740,000 - $1,120,000
= $380,000 loss
Eliminate this loss on sale of equipment
2017
Unrealized depreciation = $380,000 ÷ 4
= $95,000
Eliminate this depreciation charge deferred at the beginning of 2018
2018
Unrealized depreciation = $380,000 ÷ 4

Explanation:
Note : I will use the FIFO method for this question since the information given is only suitable for this method.
Assembly Department
First, calculate the equivalent units of production with respect to materials and conversion costs :
1.Materials
To finish Opening Work In Process (4,100x0%) = 0
Started and Completed ((15,600 - 4,100) x100%) = 11,500
Ending Work In Process (5,300x 100%) = 5,300
Equivalent units with respect to materials = 16,800
2.Conversion costs
To finish Opening Work In Process (4,100x60%) = 2,460
Started and Completed ((15,600 - 4,100) x100%) = 11,500
Ending Work In Process (5,300x 80%) = 4,240
Equivalent units with respect to conversion costs = 19,840
Next, calculate the total costs with respect to materials and conversion costs :
1. Materials
FIFO method only accounts for costs incurred during the period
Costs Incurred during the period = $124,320
Total Material costs = $124,320
2. Conversion Costs
FIFO method only accounts for costs incurred during the period
Costs Incurred during the period ($140,000 + $98,420) = $238,420
Total Conversion costs = $238,420
Next, calculate the cost per equivalent unit of materials, conversion costs and in total
1. Materials
Cost per equivalent = Total Costs / Total Equivalent Units
Therefore,
Cost per equivalent = $124,320/ 16,800
= $7.40
2. Conversion Costs
Cost per equivalent = Total Costs / Total Equivalent Units
Therefore,
Cost per equivalent = $238,420/ 19,840
= $12.02
3. Total
Total unit cost = materials unit cost + Conversion unit cost
= $7.40 + $12.02
= $19.42
Finally, calculate the total cost of units completed and transferred out and units still in process
1. units completed and transferred out
Total cost = units completed and transferred out x total unit cost
= 15,600 units x $19.42
= $302,952
2. units still in process
Total cost = material costs + conversion costs
= 5,300 x $7.40 + 4,240 x $12.02
= $90,184.80

Johnson Inc. is a job-order manufacturing company that uses a predetermined overhead rate, based on direct labor hours, to apply overhead to individual jobs.
For the current year, estimated direct labor hours are 95,000 and estimated factory overhead is $617,500.
The following information is for September of the current year:
September 1, inventories:
Materials inventory $ 7,500
Work-in-process inventory (All Job A) 31,200
Finished goods inventory 67,000
Material purchases 104,000
Direct materials requisitioned:
Job A 65,000
Job B 33,500
Direct labor hours:
Job A 4,200
Job B 3,500
Labor costs incurred;
Direct labor ($8.50/hour) 65,450
Indirect labor 13,500
Supervisory salaries 6,000
Rental costs:
Factory 7,000
Administrative offices 1,800
Total equipment depreciation costs:
Factory 7,500
Administrative offices 1,600
Indirect materials used 12,000
Job A was completed during September and Job B was started but not finished.
Required:
1. What is the total cost of Job A?
2. What is the total factory overhead applied during September?
3. What is the over-applied or under-applied overhead for September?
Answer:
1. $159,200
2. $50,050
3. $4,050 overapplied
Explanation:
1. Calculation for The total cost of Job A?
TOTAL COST OF JOB A
Direct materials requisitioned $ 65,000
Add Direct labor costs $ 35,700
(4,200 hours * $ 8.50 per hour)
Add Applied overheads $ 27,300
(4,200 hours * $ 6.50 per hour)
($617,500/95,000=$ 6.50 per hour)
Add Work in process $ 31,200
Total Cost of Job A $ 159,200
Therefore Total Cost of Job A will be $ 159,200
2. Calculation for What is the total factory overhead applied during September
First step is to calculate Predetermined Overhead Rate
Predetermined Overhead Rate=$617,500/95,000
Predetermined Overhead Rate=$ 6.50 per hour
Now let calculate the total factory overhead applied
Total factory overhead applied =(Job A 4,200+Job B 3,500) × ($6.50)
Total factory overhead applied =7,700×$6.50
Total factory overhead applied =$50,050
Therefore the total factory overhead applied will be $50,050
3. Calculation for What is the over-applied or under-applied overhead for September
First step is to calculate Actual factory overhead
Actual factory overhead :
Indirect labor 13,500
Supervisory salaries 6,000
Rental costs:Factory 7,000
Factory 7,500
Indirect materials used 12,000
Actual factory overhead =$46,000
Second step is to calculate Predetermined Overhead Rate
Predetermined Overhead Rate=$617,500/95,000
Predetermined Overhead Rate=$ 6.50 per hour
Now let calculate the over-applied or under-applied overhead for September
Over-applied or under-applied overhead =(Job A 4,200+Job B 3,500*$ 6.50 per )-$46,000
Over-applied or under-applied overhead =(7,700*$6.50)-$46,000
Over-applied or under-applied overhead =$50,050-$46,000
Over-applied or under-applied overhead =$4,050 overapplied
Therefore the over-applied for September is $4,050
Carlin Company, which uses net present value to analyze Investments, requires a 10% minimum rate of return. A staff assistant recently calculated a $500,000 machine's net present value to be $86,400, excluding the impact of straight-line depreciation
6.105 FV of 1 (i = 100,-5): 1.611
TV of a series of $i cash flows ( - 108, n. 5):
PV of $1 (1 - 108; n = 5) 0.621
PV of a series of $1 cash flown (1 101, n = 5) 3.791 #
If Carlin Ignores income taxes and the machine is expected to have a five-year service life, the correct net present value of the machine would be:
a) $292,700
b) $186,400
c) $86,400
Answer: c) $86,400
Explanation:
Depreciation on an asset reduces the amount of taxes that need to be paid and this is the main reason assets are depreciated.
If Carlin is going to ignore income taxes then there is no need to account for the impact of depreciation on the asset when calculating its present value.
The present value will therefore be the same as the amount calculated by the assistant at $86,400.
Suppose you learned that the price elasticity of demand for wheat is 0.7 between the current price for wheat and a price $2 higher per bushel. Do you think that
Answer:
Farmers will not try to reduce the supply.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is the responsiveness of demand against the change in the price of the good.
As per the given data
Elasticity of demand = 0.7
Change in price = $2
It is assumed that the Price was $10
Change in price = $2 / $10 = 0.20
Use the following formula to calculate the change in quatity demand
Elasticity of demand = Change in quantity demand / Change in price
Placing values in the formula
0.7 = Change in quantity demand / 0.2
Change in quantity demand = 0.7 x 0.2 = 0.14 = 14%
As the price of the wheat increased by 20% the demand is decreased by 14%.
In this situation reducing the supply to increase the supply is not feasible because with the increase in price the demand for the wheat will fall which will conflict with their objective. It will reduce the revenue of the farmer's supply, in this case, the farmers try to reduce the supply more than will reduce their revenue more and it will make a loss for the farmers.

On average, workers in Australia can produce 3 units of agriculture output or 9 units of manufacturing output per day. In Guyana, workers can produce 4 units of agriculture or 8 units of manufacturing output per day.
1. What is the opportunity cost of agricultural output in Canada? units of manufacturing output?
2. What is the opportunity cost of agricultural output in Guyana? units of manufacturing output?
Answer:
3 UNITS OF MANUFACTURING OUTPUT
2 units of manufacturing output?
Explanation:
Opportunity cost or implicit is the cost of the option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.
the opportunity cost of agricultural output in Australia = manufacturing output per day / agricultural output
= 9/3 = 3
the opportunity cost of agricultural output in Guyana = manufacturing output per day / agricultural output
= 8/4 = 2
Suppose that Brian, an economist from a research institute in Texas, and Crystal, an economist from a public television program, are arguing over saving incentives. The following dialogue shows an excerpt from their debate:
Crystal: I think it's safe to say that, in general, the savings rate of households in today's economy is much lower than it really needs to be to sustain the improvement of living standards.
Brian: I think a switch from the income tax to a consumption tax would bring growth in living standards.
Crystal: You really think households would change their saving behavior enough in response to this to make a difference? Because I don't.
The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to _____
Despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree?
a. Immigrants receive more in government benefits than they contribute in taxes.
b. Having a single income tax rate would improve economic performance.
c. Rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
Answer: c. Rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
Explanation:
Economists are generally known to refuse to agree on most things due to the different schools of economic thought.
One thing they generally agree on however, is that rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
The reason being that when a rent ceiling is imposed, some landlords will not see the need to improve their housing with the hope of charging higher rent rates which will lead to a reduction in housing quality.
Some landlords will not go into the rental business at all because they might doubt that the rent ceiling will provide them with enough rental income to offset the costs of constructing a building for rent.
Describe how audit procedures involving tests of controls can provide indirect evidence about whether financial statement account balances are free of material misstatement.
Answer:
Internal Controls are tested by audit team through entering dummy entries and identifying the system restrictions. Observing the management behavior towards controls and investigating any flaw in the internal control.
Explanation:
Audit is a technical process as it involves detailed analysis of the controls that are in place in the organization. The management behavior towards those controls are very important as it is the management responsibility to ensure that all employees follow the internal controls and there is no breach in the control. The financial statements should be prepared in the finance department with only the relevant staff and there should not be access given to employees of other department so that there can be less risk for material misstatement.
A company started a new product, and in the first month started 100,000100,000 units. The ending work in process inventory was 20,00020,000 units that were 1000% complete with materials and 75u% complete with conversion costs. There were 100,000100,000 units to account for, and the equivalent units for materials was $6$6 per unit while the equivalent units for conversion was $8$8 per unit. What is the value of the inventory transferred out, using the weighted-average inventory method
Answer:
$240,000
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the value of the inventory transferred out, using the weighted-average inventory method
First step is to calculate the Equivalent material cost=
Equivalent material cost= 20,000×100%×$6
Equivalent material cost= 120,000
Second step is to calculate Equivalent conversion cost
Equivalent conversion cost=20,000×75%×8
Equivalent conversion cost=120,000
Now let calculate the value of the inventory transferred out, using the weighted-average inventory method
Inventory value transferred out= 120,000+120,000
Inventory value transferred out=$240,000
Therefore the value of the inventory transferred out, using the weighted-average inventory method is $240,000
Pharoah Corp. had total variable costs of $179,400, total fixed costs of $74,400, and total revenues of $260,000. Compute the required sales in dollars to break even.
Answer:
$165,333.33
Explanation:
The computation of the required sales in dollars to break even is as follow:
Break even point in dollars = Fixed cost ÷ contribution margin ratio
where,
Contribution margin ratio is
= (Sales - variable cost) ÷ (Sales)
= ($260,000 - $179,400) ÷ ($179,400)
= 45%
Now the break even point in dollar is
= $74,400 ÷ 0.45
= $165,333.33
Answer: $240,000
Explanation: Step 1
Let's understand the basics.
Break-even point is a point at which no profit no loss condition arises. In other words, it is a point at which contribution equals to a fixed cost of the company.
Break even point (In amount) = Fixed cost/Contribution margin ratio
Contribution margin ratio = ((Sales - Variable cost)/Sales) * 100
Step 2
So here in this case,
Contribution margin ratio = (($260,000 - $179,400)/$260,000) * 100 = 31%
Break even point (In amounts) = $74,400/31= $240,000
In 2018 the NFL football team, the Carolina Panthers, have an owner accused of sexual harassment. The fans’ demand for team jerseys has dropped with the scandal this year. At about the same time the cost to manufacture the jerseys in China increased by 20%. Describe what the new equilibrium price and quantity is like compared with the prior year’s Panthers’ jersey market before the scandal and increased manufacturing costs?
Question Completion with Options:
1. The demand curve shifted to the right, the supply curve shifted to the left, the equilibrium price and quantity increased from 2017
2. Supply and demand curves have shifted to the left and the equilibrium quantity has decreased from 2017 but it is impossible to determine the effect on the equilibrium price.
3. The demand curve shifted to the left, the supply curve shifted to the right, the equilibrium price and quantity increased from 2017 Od.
4. Supply and demand curves have shifted to the left and the equilibrium price and quantity for Panthers' jersey market has decreased since 2017.
Answer:
This is how the new equilibrium price and quantity are like compared with the prior year’s Panthers’ jersey market before the scandal and increased manufacturing costs:
2. Supply and demand curves have shifted to the left and the equilibrium quantity has decreased from 2017 but it is impossible to determine the effect on the equilibrium price.
Explanation:
The scenario presents a decrease in supply of the jersey caused by the increase in the cost of production by 20%. This is why supply shifted to the left. Based on this factor, price is supposed to increase but this does not reflect on the data because the scandal also dampened demand. No wonder demand also shifted to the left, resulting in further decrease. These two leftward shifts caused the equilibrium quantity to decrease. However, we cannot establish whether the price decreased as well because it is supposed to increase due to the increased production cost in China.

In the decision-making process, you must take into account several cultural variables. Describe one of the variables associated with risk tolerance and one of the variables associated with internal/external locus of control. Why are these important factors to consider?
Answer:
Answer is explained below in the explanation section.
Explanation:
There is always a need to have an important control upon the decisions that we have in the business setup. Informed decision making is very necessary for business. People use different decision setups designed to help in the manufacturing process and most often come up with very fruitful decisions.
One of the cultural factors associated with risk tolerance may be the threshold for when we can make decisions that are not detrimental to the cultural view of groups. We need to carefully consider our employees and make sure that our decisions are not too objective. Cultural-emotional bias can lead to decisions that can damage brand ownership throughout the business. This is very dangerous and detrimental for any company, so it is necessary to limit decisions and their consequences in terms of cultural sense to avoid any losses.
The internal locust of control is the kind of person who is the best fit for all the jobs. So it is obvious that this person has some control over others. But there are some do's and don'ts for such kind of person as well. Such as, he has to communicate with almost everyone in the workplace. So, he must ensure neutrality in all aspects of other people with whom he is working. Such aspects are religion, race, caste. society etc. and his humor must not harm the emotions of anyone in the workplace.
In order to run business smoothly with maximum profits and best workforce and the best workplace. Effective decision making is the key to go. Hence, these variables are very important to achieve the effective business decision making in the long term.

Using a method similar to that used to calculate the consumer price index, the percentage change in the overall price level is__________
Using a method similar to that used to calculate the GDP deflator, the percentage change of the overall price level is ____________ Which of the following statements is correct? Check all that apply.
a. The inflation rate in 2018 is not the same using the two methods.
b. The CPI allows the basket of goods and services to change.
c. The GDP deflator holds the basket of goods and services constant.
Answer:
1. 52.17%
2. 50.41%
3. a. The inflation rate in 2018 is not the same using the two methods
Explanation:
1.
We are to calculate the % change in overall price level
Market basket:
Year 2017 = (30x2) + (8x4)
= 60 +32
= $92
Year 2018 = (50x2) + (10x4)
= 100+40
= $140
Cpi in 2017 = market basket in this year/market basket in base year x 100
= 92/92 x 100
= 100
Cpi in 2018
= 140/92 x 100
= 152.17
% change = 152.17 - 100 / 100
= 0.5217 x100
= 52.17%
2.
Nominal gdp in year 2017 = (20x30) +(40x8)
= 920 dollars
Real gdp in same year = 920 dollars
Gdp deflator (2018) = nominal/real x 100
= 920/920 x 100
= 100
Real gdp (2018) = (25*30) + (60x8)
= $1230
Nominal gdp(2018) = 25x50 + 60x10
= $1850
Gdp deflator = 1850/1230 x 100
= 150.41
% change in overall price level = 150.41-100/100
= 0.5041 x 100
= 50.41%
3. Using the 2 methods inflation rate in 2018 is not the same. The cpi's rate of inflation holds basket of goods to be fixed. Gdp deflator allows a fluctuation (it changes)

If a basket selling price is $13per unit with the variable expense is $10 per unit and the company's monthly fixed expense if $7,800, what is the break even point in sales
Answer:
26,000 units
Explanation:
The break-even point is calculated by dividing fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit.
Fixed costs are $78,000
Contribution margin per unit = selling costs - variable costs
=$13-$10
Contribution margin per unit=$3
Break-even point = $7800/$3
=26,000 units

You purchase 150 shares for $70 a share ($10,500), and after a year the price rises to $80. Calculate the percentage return on your investment if you bought the stock on margin and the margin requirement was (ignore commissions, dividends, and interest expense):
Answer:
57.14%
Explanation:
Missing word "25 percent."
Gain on the stock = (150*$80) - $10,500
Gain on the stock = $ 12,000 - $10,500
Gain on the stock = $1,500
If Margin requirement is 25%, The Margin = 10,500*25% = $2,625
Return on Investment = $1,500/$2,625 * 100 = 0.571429 * 100 = 57.1429% = 57.14%

Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Remain constant
From the question, we are informed that Nation Furniture workers just signed a two-year contract. This then means that even though there is an increase in price level, it doesn't affect the prices of inputs as they still remain constant.
b. Increase
We should note that when there is a rise in the price level, this will also bring about an increase in the prices of the output.
c. Increase in economic profit
The firm will have a rise in the economic profit in the short run. There'll be an increase in revenue which ultimately increase economic profit as well since input prices remain the same.

A company sells 500 shirts at a price of $15 each with a cost of goods sold of $2 per shirt. The company has selling and administrative expenses of $2,500, depreciation expenses of $500, interest expenses of $1,000, and a tax rate of 35%. Calculate the EBT
Answer:
EBT= $5,000
Explanation:
We need to calculate the earnings before taxes:
Sales= 500*15= 7,500
COGS= 500*2= (1,000)
Gross profit= 6,500
Depreciation= (500)
Interest= (1,000)
EBT= 5,000
Now, if we want to continue and calculate the net income:
EBT= 5,000
Tax= (5,000*0.35)= (1,750)
Depreciation= 500
Net income= 3,750
