Year before payback = 6
Payback amount = 6 + (40,000 / 230,000)
= 6.17 years
Evan phoned his representative when he received his most recent statement on his deferred annuity. Evan is 65 and purchased the fixed annuity seven years ago to be a conservative part of his portfolio. Evan has read and heard a lot about how the market is beginning to take off and that variable annuities have considerable growth potential. He wants to get out of the fixed annuity and purchase a variable annuity to earn a higher return. The representative should:
Answer: Review Evan's investor profile factors and other facts to determine a suitable course of action to address his concerns and needs
Explanation:
The options include:
A. Recommend that Evan consider an exchange into a variable life insurance policy because it has growth potential with a death benefit.
B. Recommend that Evan surrender the annuity and invest in bond mutual funds because they work similar and cost less.
C. Review Evan’s investor profile factors and other facts to determine a suitable course of action to address his concerns and needs.
D. Update his investor profile factors and risk tolerance, and discuss with Evan the long term focus of a variable annuity and how it will outperform the fixed annuity within the first couple of years.
Based on the information given in the question, the best thing that the representative should do will be to review Evan's investor profile factors and other facts to determine a suitable course of action to address his concerns and needs.
When Evan's investor profile factors is checked, then the representative can then inform Evans about the appropriate thing to do and if it's appropriate for him to purchase a variable annuity to earn a higher return.
Going ahead by getting out of the fixed annuity and purchasing a variable annuity without reviewing Evan's investor's profile isn't appropriate.
A Quality Analyst wants to construct a sample mean chart for controlling a packaging process. He knows from past experience that whenever this process is under control, package weight is normally distributed with a mean of twenty ounces and a standard deviation of two ounces. Each day last week, he randomly selected four packages and weighed each:
Day Weight (ounces)
Monday 23 22 23 24

The economy is in long-run equilibrium. Technological change shifts the long-run aggregate supply curve $120 billion to the right. At the same time, government purchases increase by $30 billion. If the MPC equals 0.8 and the crowding-out effects are $30 billion, we would expect that in the long run. (C)
a. real GDP would be higher but the price level would be lower
b. both real GDP and the price level would be lower
c. real GDP would be higher but the price level would be the same
d. both real GDP and the price level would be higher
Answer:
C. Real GDP would be higher but the price level would be the same
Explanation:
Real gdp would get to be higher as long run aggregate supply goes up. Prices would go down because as long run aggregate supply goes up, aggregate demand does not experience the same proportional increase. As long run aggregate supply goes up, short run aggregate supply falls backwards.

Product A consists of two units of Subassembly B, two units of C, and one unit of D. B is composed of four units of E and two units of F. C is made of two units of H and three units of D. H is made of five units of E and two units of G. To produce 100 units of A, determine the numbers of units of B, C, D, E, F, G, and H required using the low-level coded product structure tree.
Level 0 100 units of A
Level 1 units of B
units of C
Level 2 units of F
units of H
units of D
Level 3 units of E
units of G
Answer:
[tex]B = 200\ units[/tex] [tex]C = 200\ units[/tex]
[tex]F = 400\ units[/tex] [tex]H = 400\ units[/tex]
[tex]D = 700\ units[/tex] [tex]E = 2800\ units[/tex]
[tex]G = 800\ units[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
[tex]A = 100\ units[/tex]
See attachment for right presentation of question
Solving (a): The low level coded product structure tree
This is plotted by considering the hierarchy or level of each product item and their corresponding units.
See attachment (2)
Solving (b): The number of units of each.
To do this, we multiply the units of the given product by the number of unit the fall under.
So, we have:
Products B and C are directly under A, so we multiply their units by units of A.
[tex]B = 2 * A = 2 * 100[/tex]
[tex]B = 200\ units[/tex]
[tex]C = 2 * A = 2 * 100[/tex]
[tex]C = 200\ units[/tex]
Product F is directly under B, so we multiply its units by units of B.
[tex]F = 2 * B = 2 * 200[/tex]
[tex]F = 400\ units[/tex]
Product H is directly under C, so
[tex]H = 2 * C = 2 * 200[/tex]
[tex]H = 400\ units[/tex]
Product D has of 3 units of C and 1 unit of A. So:
[tex]D = 3 * C + 1 * A[/tex]
[tex]D = 3 * 200 + 1 * 100[/tex]
[tex]D = 700\ units[/tex]
Product E has of 4 units of B and 5 units of H. So:
[tex]E = 4 * B + 5 * H[/tex]
[tex]E = 4 *200 + 5 * 400[/tex]
[tex]E = 2800\ units[/tex]
Product G has 2 units of H.
So:
[tex]G = 2 * H = 2 * 400[/tex]
[tex]G = 800\ units[/tex]

using a scale: Three boys Isaac ,Alex and Ken are standing in different parts of a field .Isaac is 100 metres north of Alex and Ken is 120 metres east of Alex .Find the compass bearing of Ken from Isaac
Answer:
156 m South East of Isaac
Explanation:
This is going to be solved by using Pythagoras theorem
We have the adjacent of the triangle as the Eastern distance between Ken and Alex, and that is 120 m. We have the opposite side to be the Northern distance between Isaac and Alex to be 100 m
If so, then we know that the hypotenuse side is the distance between Isaac and Ken. Using Pythagoras, we know that
100² + 120² = x²
x² = 10000 + 14400
x² = 24400
x =√24400
x = 156.2 m
The compass bearing of Ken, from Isaac then is,
Ken is 156.2 m South East of Isaac
The Chilton Corporation specializes in manufacturing one type of desk lamp. Chilton allocates variable manufacturing overhead costs on the basis of machine hours. Chilton budgeted 0.3 machine hours per lamp and allocates overhead at a rate of $1.90 per machine hour. Last year Chilton manufactured 19,000 lamps, used 7,600 machine hours and incurred actual overhead costs of $12,920. What was Chilton's variable manufacturing overhead efficiency variance last year?
A. $9,660 favorable
B. $4,140 unfavorable
C. $4,140 favorable
D. $9,660 unfavorable
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Given the above information, we can compute variable manufacturing overhead efficiency variance to be;
= (SA - AQ) × SR
Where
Standard quantity = SQ = 19,000
Actual Quantity = AQ = 7,600
Standard Rate = SR = $1.9
Variable manufacturing overhead efficiency variance
= [(19,000 × 0.3) - 7,600] × $1.9
= (5,700 - 7,600) × $1.9
= $3,610 U
Parker Company pays each member of its sales staff a salary as well as a commission on
each unit sold. For the coming year, Parker plans to increase all salaries by 5% and to keep
unchanged the commission paid on each unit sold. Because of increased demand, Parker
expects the volume of sales to increase by 10%. How will the total cost of sales salaries and
commissions change for the coming year?
A. Increase by 5% or less.
B. Increase by more than 5% but less than 10%.
Answer: B is correct
Explanation:
Sales salaries will increase by exactly 5%. The per-unit commission amount will remain constant, but sales commissions in total are expected to increase by 10%. Thus, total sales salaries and commissions will increase somewhere between 5% and 10%.

Meiji Isetan Corp. of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 3,000,000 $ 9,000,000 Net operating income $ 210,000 $ 720,000 Average operating assets $ 1,000,000 $ 4,000,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 15%. Compute the residual income for each division. 3. Is Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income an indication that it is better managed?
Answer:
1. Return on Investment = Sales Margin / Capital turnover
= (Net income / Sales) ÷ (Assets / Sales)
Osaka:
= (210,000 / 3,000,000) ÷ (1,000,000 / 3,000,000)
= 0.07 / 0.33
= 21%
Yokohama
= (720,000 / 9,000,000) ÷ (4,000,000 / 9,000,000)
= 0.08 / 0.44
= 18%
2. Residual income = Operating income * (Required return * Average operating assets)
Osaka = 210,000 - (15% * 1,000,000)
= $60,000
Yokohama = 720,000 - (15% * 4,000,000)
= $120,000
c. No is isn't because Residual income is not a good matric to use to compare companies or departments as it does not show the amount of assets used by the companies being compared.

Fixed expenses are $214,000 per month. The marketing manager believes that a $7,500 increase in the monthly advertising budget would result in a 190 unit increase in monthly sales. What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change? rev: 03_09_2018_
Answer:
Effect on income= $9,600 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following formula:
Unitary contribution margin= $90
The marketing manager believes that a $7,500 increase in the monthly advertising budget would result in a 190 unit increase in monthly sales.
To calculate the effect on income, we need to use the following formula:
Effect on income= increase in total contribution margin - increase in fixed costs
Effect on income= 190*90 - 7,500
Effect on income= 17,100 - 7,500
Effect on income= $9,600 increase

Barton Industries expects next year's annual dividend, D1, to be $2.00 and it expects dividends to grow at a constant rate g = 4.2%. The firm's current common stock price, P0, is $20.00. If it needs to issue new common stock, the firm will encounter a 4.5% flotation cost, F. What is the flotation cost adjustment that must be added to its cost of retained earnings? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The flotation cost adjustment that must be added to its cost of retained earnings will be calculated thus:
= Expected dividend / [Current price × (1 - Floatation cost)] + Expected growth rate
= 2.00/[20.00 × (1 - 4.5%)] + 4.2%
= 2.00 /[20.00 × (1 - 0.045)] + 0.042
= 2.00 / (20.00 × 0.955) + 0.042
= (2.00/19.10) + 0.042
= 0.104712 + 0.042
= 0.146712
New cost of equity = 14.67%
You didn't give the cost of equity calculated without the flotation adjustment. Let's assume that this is maybe 11%, the floatation on adjustment factor = 14.67% - 11% = 3.67%
