Answer: Batch
Explanation:
Batch processing refers to the method whereby high-volume, and repetitive data jobs are being run. The batch method enables the users to be able to process data when there's availability of computing resources and there's minimal user interaction.
From the question, since the system falls in the area of low volume and low standardization, but isn't at the extreme left (lowest) point, then the batch processing is recommended.

Assume the licorice industry is perfectly competitive. Each firm produces 2 million strings per year. The strings have an average total cost of $0.20, and sell for $0.30. a. What is the marginal cost of a string? b. Is the industry in long-run equilibrium? Why or why not? Explain.
Answer:
a. $0.30
b. No it is not.
Explanation:
a. In a perfectly competitive industry, the profit is maximized at the point where Marginal Revenue = Marginal cost.
At the same time Marginal Revenue in a perfectly competitive industry is equal to Price.
As the price is $0.30 then this must be the Marginal cost as well.
b. When a perfectly competitive industry is in a long term equilibrium, the Average Total cost is at its lowest level.
The Marginal cost would intersect the Average Total cost curve at the lowest which means that the Marginal cost should be the same as the Average Total cost when the industry is in a long term equilibrium.
As they are not the same, the industry is not in a long-run equilibrium.
An investor in the 32% tax bracket is considering two investment options of equal risk: a corporate bond that yields 8.25% and a municipal (muni) bond that yields 4.75%. Assuming the investor will select the bond with the highest yield, which bond should this investor choose
Answer: Corporate bond
Explanation:
It should be noted that the municipal bond aren't taxable. Therefore, its yield will be 4.75%.
On the other hand, the After Tax Cost of the yield of the corporate bond will be:
= Yield × (1-Tax Rate)
= 8.25% × (1-35%)
= 8.25% × 65%
= 5.36%
Therefore, the Corporate Bond should be chosen since it has a higher yield.
The WACC is used to _______ the expected cash flows when the firm has ____________. Select one: a. decrease; short term financing on the balance sheet b. discount; short term financing on the balance sheet c. discount; debt and equity in the capital structure d. increase; debt and equity in the capital structure
Answer:
c
Explanation:
WACC = weight of equity x cost of equity + weight of debt x cost of debt x (1 - tax rate)
weight of debt = D / (D + E)
It is used to discount the expected cash flows when the firm has debt and equity in the capital structure. It is suitable because in the calculation of WACC, debt and equity are included
Determining Cost of Land On-Time Delivery Company acquired an adjacent lot to construct a new warehouse, paying $45,000 in cash and giving a short-term note for $317,000. Legal fees paid were $1,625, delinquent taxes assumed were $10,500, and fees paid to remove an old building from the land were $21,400. Materials salvaged from the demolition of the building were sold for $5,400. A contractor was paid $1,100,500 to construct a new warehouse. Determine the cost of the land to be reported on the balance sheet.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The cost of land to be reported in the balance sheet is seen below;
= [(Cash paid + short term notice) + legal fees + taxes assumed + fees paid to remove an old building from the land - materials salvaged from the demolition of the building
= [($45,000 + $317,000) + $1,625 + $10,500 + $21,400 - $5,400
= $390,125
Hence, cost of land to be reported in the balance sheet is $390,125
Why can we be confident that the market for college education is competitive and that an increase in demand rather than the greed of college administrators is the reason for the ongoing rise in tuition? We can be confident that the market for college education is competitive and that an increase in demand rather than the greed of college administrators is the reason for the ongoing rise in tuition for all of the following reasons except _______.
Question Completion:
A. if college administrators raised the tuition with no change in supply, a surplus of college places would be created at the higher tuition, and the tuition would start to fall
B. the law of demand does not hold
C. more than 4,500 public and private 2-year and 4-year schools supply college education services
D. an increase in demand raises the tuition and increases the enrollment, which accurately describes the market for college education
Answer:
We can be confident that the market for college education is competitive and that an increase in demand rather than the greed of college administrators is the reason for the ongoing rise in tuition for all of the following reasons except _______.
B. the law of demand does not hold
Explanation:
The law of demand implies that the price of a good or service responds to the level of demand. In other words, higher demand increases the price, while lower demand reduces the price. This implies that without the higher demand for college education, college administrators will not be able to sustain an increase in tuition. Therefore, an increase in the demand for college education will lead to increased enrollment, which spurs college administrators to raise tuition.

In analyzing company operations, the controller of the corporation found a $250,000 favorable flexible-budget revenue variance. The variance was calculated by comparing the actual results with the flexible budget. This variance can be wholly explained by
Answer: C. changes in unit selling prices.
Explanation:
The options given are:
a. the total flexible budget variance
b. the total static budget variance
c. changes in unit selling prices
d. changes in the number of units sold
Based on the information given, the variance can be wholly explained by changes in unit selling prices.
This is due to the fact that the flexible budget revenue variance is calculated and gotten as the difference between the budgeted revenue and the actual revenue at thesame activity level.
Therefore, the number of units will be thesame in both the actual results and the flexble budget. Then, the difference will be as a result of the change in the unit selling price.

Goose Corporation, a C corporation, incurs a net capital loss of $12,000 for 2020. It also has ordinary income of $10,000 in 2020. Goose had net capital gains of $2,500 in 2016 and $5,000 in 2019.
a. Determine the amount, if any, of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is deductible in 2020.
b. Determine the amount, if any, of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is carried forward to 2017.
Answer:
a. The amount of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is deductible in 2020 is zero.
b. The amount of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is carried forward to 2021 is $7,000.
Explanation:
Sections 1211 and 1212 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) address capital losses of corporations and declare that:
Corporation capital losses are not allowed to be deducted from ordinary income.For that year, corporations can only deduct capital losses up to the amount of capital profits from other assets.Any capital losses that haven't been deducted because there aren't any more capital gains can be carried back three years and forward five years.As a result of the foregoing, we have:
a. Determine the amount, if any, of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is deductible in 2020.
Because there are no capital gains in 2020, no portion of the $12,000 net capital loss is deductible in 2020. It cannot be deducted from ordinary income in 2020.
Therefore, the amount of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is deductible in 2020 is zero.
b. Determine the amount, if any, of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is carried forward to 2017.
Note: This question b is not correct because the 2017 is used instead of 2021 as the year. It therefore correctly stated before answering the question as follows:
Determine the amount, if any, of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is carried forward to 2021.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
Because businesses can carry back three years and forward five years, the amount to carry forward to 2021 will be the difference of $12,000 in capital losses for 2020 and $5,000 in capital gains for 2019, which is $7,000 (i.e. $12,000 - $5,000 = $7,000).
Therefore, the amount of the net capital loss of $12,000 that is carried forward to 2021 is $7,000.
Using the data below, compute DEBT RATIO.
Using the data below, compute Return on Equity.
Accounts Payable 800
Accounts Receivable 1,100
Capital Stock 2,000
Cash 50
Cost of Goods Sold 6,000
Inventory 1,500
Long-term Debt 1,820
Net Income 950
Property, Plant, and Equipment (net) 3,000
Retained Earnings 1,030
Sales 10,000
Market value of shares 12,000
Answer:
a. Total Liabilities = Accounts Payable + Long-term Debt
Total Liabilities = 800 + 1,820
Total Liabilities = $2,620
Total Assets = Accounts Receivable + Cash + Inventory + Property, Plant, and Equipment (net)
Total Assets = 1,100 + 50 + 1,500 + 3,000
Total Assets = $5,650
Debt Ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Assets
Debt Ratio = $2,620 / $5,650
Debt Ratio = 0.463717
Debt Ratio = 46.37%
b. Return on Equity = Net Income / Shareholder Equity
Return on Equity = Net Income / (Capital Stock + Retained Earnings)
Return on Equity = $950 / ($2,000+$1,030)
Return on Equity = $950 / $3,030
Return on Equity = 0.31353135
Return on Equity = 31.35%

On January 1, Year 1, the City Taxi Company purchased a new taxi cab for $36,000. The cab has an expected salvage value of $2,000. The company estimates that the cab will be driven 200,000 miles over its life. It uses the units-of-production method to determine depreciation expense. The cab was driven 45,000 miles the first year and 48,000 the second year. What would be the depreciation expense reported on the Year 2 income statement and the book value of the taxi, respectively, at the end of Year 2?
a. $8,640 and $19,260
b. $8,640 and $17,260
c. $8,160 and $20,190
d. $8,160 and $18,190
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Activity method based on output = (output produced that year / total output of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
year 2 = (48,000 / 200,000) x (36,000 - 2000) = 8160
book value = cost of asset - accumulated depreciation
accumulated depreciation = year 1 + year 2's depreciation
year 1 = (45,000 / 200,000) x (36,000 - 2000) =
- 200,000 - (7650 + 8160) =
