The price elasticity of supply for basmati rice (an aromatic strain of rice) is likely to be which of the following?
A. High in both the long run and the short run, because the inputs required to produce basmati rice can easily be duplicated.
B. Low in both the long and short runs, because rice farming requires only unskilled labor.
C. High, because consumers have a lot of other kinds of rice and other staple foods to choose from.
D. Higher in the long run than the short run, because farmers cannot easily change their decisions about how much basmati rice to plant once the current crop has been planted.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: D. Higher in the long run than the short run, because farmers cannot easily change their decisions about how much basmati rice to plant once the current crop has been planted.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Supply refers to how Supply changes in response to a change in price. Essentially, if the price of a good increases, will Supplier supply more or less of that good as a result and by how much will they do so.

In the short run, the farmers would have already planted the crops and so would be unable start changing the quantity that they expect from the harvest. They will therefore supply the amount they harvested regardless of a price change.

In the long run however, they can change the amount of rice planted depending on the price of the rice in the market. Price Elasticity is therefore higher in the long run than in the short run.

Andrews Company manufactures a line of office chairs. Each chair takes $14 of direct materials and uses 1.9 direct labor hours at $16 per direct labor hour. The variable overhead rate is $1.10 per direct labor hour and the fixed overhead rate is $1.50 per direct labor hour. Andrews expects to have 620 chairs in ending inventory. There is no beginning inventory of office chairs.
Required:
1. Calculate the unit product cost. (Note: Round to the nearest cent.)$
2. Calculate the cost of budgeted ending inventory. (Note: Round to the nearest dollar.)$

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct material= $14

Direct labor= 1.9 direct labor hours at $16 per direct labor hour.

Variable overhead= $1.10 per direct labor hour

Fixed overhead rate= $1.50 per direct labor hour.

Ending inventory (units)= 620

We can calculate the unitary product cost using the absorption or variable costing method. The first one includes the unitary fixed overhead to the unitary product cost.

Absorption costing:

Unitary cost= 14 + 1.9*16 + (1.1+1.5)*1.9= $49.34

Ending inventory= 49.34*620= $30,590.8

Variable costing:

Unitary cost= 14 + 1.9*16 + 1.1*1.9= $46.49

Ending inventory= 46.49*620= $28,823.8

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent Units for conversion = 50,000 units

Cost per equivalent unit for conversion = $5.253

Explanation:

​WIP, April 1                                               = 7,000 units

Transferred-costs in​ WIP, April 1            = ​$79,940

Direct materials​ (100%) in​ WIP, April 1   = ​$24,420

Conversion costs ​(55​%) in​ WIP, April 1  = ​$23,400

100% for materials and 40​% for conversion​ costs

Required = Equivalent Units for conversion cost?

Solution

Equivalent Units for conversion = 100% of units completed + 40% of units in work in process

Equivalent Units for conversion = (46000 x 100%) + ( 10,000 x 40%)

Equivalent Units for conversion = 46,000 + 4000

Equivalent Units for conversion = 50,000 units

Cost per equivalent unit for conversion = Total conversion cost/Equivalent unts for conversion

Cost per equivalent unit for conversion = (23,400+239,250) /50,000units

Cost per equivalent unit for conversion = $5.253

Virginia owns 100% of Goshawk Company. In the current year, Goshawk Company sells a capital asset (held for three years) at a loss of $40,000. In addition, Goshawk has a short-term capital gain of $18,000 and net operating income of $90,000 during the year. Virginia has no recognized capital gain (or loss) before considering her ownership in Goshawk.

Complete each lettered item below, outlining how much of the capital loss may be deducted for the year and how much is carried back or forward.

a. If Goshawk is a proprietorship, only $ _________ long-term capital loss can be deducted in the current year. The remaining $ ___________net capital loss is carried ___________ and then ____________Correct 3 of Item 1.

b. If Goshawk is a C corporation, only $ __________long-term capital loss can be deducted in the current year. The remaining $ ___________ net capital loss is carried ______________ and then _____________ of Item 2.

Answers

Answer:

a)  If Goshawk is a proprietorship, only $21000 long-term capital loss can be deducted in the current year. The remaining $19000 net capital loss is carried forward and then carried back

b)  If Goshawk is a C corporation, only $ 18000 long-term capital loss can be deducted in the current year. The remaining $22000 net capital loss is carried back and then forward of Item 2.

Explanation:

The gain or loss on the sale of a property is said to be the difference between between the realized value of goods and its adjusted basis. When there is a gain the realized value would be greater than the adjusted basis, while when there's loss the realized value would be less than the adjusted basis.

A) In this case, if Goshawk is a proprietorship, only $21,000 of the $40,000 long-term capital loss can be deducted in the current year. The loss will offset the short-term capital gain of $18,000 first; then, an additional $3,000 of the loss may be utilized as a deduction against ordinary income. The remaining $19,000 net capital loss is carried forward to next year and years thereafter until completely deducted. The capital loss carryover retains its character as long term.

B) If Goshawk is a C corporation, $18,000 short term capital gain can be set off for long term capital loss. Then the remaining $22,000($40,000 - $18,000) will be carried backwards

Answers

Answer:

So, the maximum price per share that should place is $62.5

Explanation:

As per given data

Current Price of stock = $50

Numbers of share = 200 shares

Limit of loss = $2,500

We will use the following formula to calculate the Maximum price of stock

Total Maximum loss possible = [ ( Prefix Price of share - Current price of share ) x Numbers of shares of stock ]

$2,500 = [ ( Prefix Price of share - $50 ) x 200 ]

$2500 / 200 = Prefix Price of share - $50

$12.5  + $50 = Prefix Price of share

$62.5 = Prefix Price of share

Therefore, thee order will be stopped at $62.50

The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to:

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $31.14 per machine-hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated machine-hour= 35,900 machine-hours

Estimated variable overhead= $4.80 per machine-hour

Total fixed manufacturing overhead was $945,606.

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (945,606/35,900) + 4.8

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $31.14 per machine-hour

The company had a net income of $248,462, and depreciation expenses were equal to $72,487. What is the firm's cash flow from financing activities?

Answers

Complete Question:

The complete question can be seen the in the attachment at the end of the solution of the question.

Answer:

Option B. -$182,057

Explanation:

The Cash flow from financing activities can be calculated by using the following formula:

Cash flow from financing activities = Changes in the equity finance

+ Changes in long term borrowings + Changes in short term borrowings

- Interest paid - Dividends paid

Here

Changes in the equity = $175,000 common stock in year 2008

- $125,000 common stock in year 2008 = $50,000

Changes in long term Borrowings = $61,290 - $78,445 = - $17,155

Changes in short term Borrowings = $16,753 - $12,004 = $4749

Interest paid is $0 because interest rate is not given hence we can't calculate it.

Dividends paid = $190,568 Opening Retained Earnings + $248,462 Net Profit for the year - $219,379 Closing Retained Earnings  = $219,651

Now, by putting values in the above equations, we have:

Cash flow from financing activities = $50,000 - $17,155 + $4749 - 0 - $219,651 = -$182,057

1. Computation of the activity rate for each activity cost pool:

a. Machine setups = Total machine setups overhead costs/total machine setups

= $28,980/252 = $115 per machine set up

b. Special processing = Total special processing overhead costs/total machine hours

= $92,000/4,600 = $20 per machine hour

c. General factory = $89,000/65,000 = $1.369 per unit produced

2. Determination of the unit product cost of each product using ABC system:

f) Activity based costing system (ABC) is a costing technique that accumulates according to activity pools and allocates costs based on the activities carried out.  For example, the general factory overhead costs, could be allocated based on direct labour hours, machine hours, or total units of production.  It calculates the allocation rate based on the accepted activity pool.

Intricate Wiring Corp., based in Ohio, creates a brand new high-tech product. The demand for the product in the United States is high but very low or non-existent elsewhere. The company decides not to locate manufacturing facilities elsewhere and will simply meet the small foreign demand via exports. The theory that best explains the company's policy is

Answers

Answer:a. product life cycle theory.

Explanation:

The Product Life Cycle Theory was created to explain the International trade pattern of a new product. The theory attempts to show that when a product is first invented, its demand and production inputs such as capital and labor, come from the area it was invented in. As the product starts getting more recognised and it's demand increases elsewhere, it will start to export and then continue until it starts manufacturing in other areas to feed the demand of those areas as well.

Intricate Wiring Corp's new high-tech product is following this theory because it has just started out and so its demand is based in its country of origin being the United States. For as long as this is the case, the company should focus on producing in the United States until demand picks up substantially enough to produce elsewhere.

Creighton Construction ordered $200,000 worth of steel beams for a new project. The invoice listed trade discounts of 30/20/15. The Net Price = $95,200
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The trade discounts of 30/20/15 indicate that the discounts are deducted one after the other from the list price.

First, you calculate the price after the 30% discount from $200,000:

200,000*(1-0.3)=200,000*0.7= $140,000

Now, you have to calculate the new value after the 20% discount from $140,000:

140,000*(1-0.2)=140,000*0.8= $112,000

Then, you have to calculate the new value after the 15% discount from $1112,000:

112,000*(1-0.15)=112,000*0.85=$95,200

According to this, the Net Price is $95,200 and the statement is true.

What is the nominal interest rate (k) of a 5-year U.S. Treasury bond with a real risk-free rate of interest of 1% and inflation expected to be at 3.5% per year

Answers

Answer:

The nominal interest rate is 4.50%

Explanation:

Nominal interest=real interest rate+inflation rate

The real interest rate is the return earned by an investor without considering  the inflation rate in the economy which is 1%

inflation rate is the movement in prices of goods and services in the economy i.e 3.5%

nominal interest rate=1%+3.5%

nominal interest rate=4.5%

Laurel inc and Hardy corp both have 10 percent coupon bonds outstanding, with semiannual interest payments, and both are currently priced at the par value of $1,000. The Laurel, Inc., bond has five years to maturity, whereas the Hardy Corp. bond has 16 years to maturity. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of these bonds? If the interest rates fall by 2 percent?

Answers

Answer:

current bond price $1,000

interest rate 10%

Laurel bond matures in 5 years, 10 semiannual payments

Hardy bonds matures in 16 years, 32 semiannual payments

if market interest increases to 12%

Laurel bond:

$1,000 / (1 + 6%)¹⁰ = $558.39

$50 x 7.36009 (annuity factor, 6%, 10 periods) = $368.00

market price = $926.39

% change = -7.36%

Hardy bond:

$1,000 / (1 + 6%)³² = $154.96

$50 x 14.08404 (annuity factor, 6%, 32 periods) = $704.20

market price = $859.16

% change = -14.08%

current bond price $1,000

interest rate 10%

Laurel bond matures in 5 years, 10 semiannual payments

Hardy bonds matures in 16 years, 32 semiannual payments

if market interest decreases to 8%

Laurel bond:

$1,000 / (1 + 4%)¹⁰ = $675.56

$50 x 8.1109 (annuity factor, 4%, 10 periods) = $405.55

market price = $1,081.11

% change = 8.11%

Hardy bond:

$1,000 / (1 + 4%)³² = $285.06

$50 x 14.08404 (annuity factor, 4%, 32 periods) = $704.20

market price = $1,178.74

% change = 17.87%

The open-ended question post-project evaluation meeting should contain an opportunity to talk about possible additional projects and assume permission to use the customer as a reference with potential customers.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

B. False.

Explanation:

In the rightful manner, this meeting type is said to typically happen in different formats though most of it happens to appear in different video calls, conference or zoom which is popular in recent times. This meeting should contain or entertain the ability for opportunity talks which could yield possibilities in adding works that can benefit the parties involved. But in the case above, assuming the permission to use the customer as a reference with potential customers is totally out of the line so it is said to not totally fall in as post project evaluation.

Your company has 16 regional offices (terminals) scattered around the country in each of the regional capitals and a main office (hub) located in the capital city of the country. Your operations are strictly domestic. You do not accept international shipments.The day at each terminal begins with the arrival of packages from the hub. The packages are loaded onto trucks for delivery to customers during morning hours. In the afternoon, the same trucks pick up packages that are returned to the terminal in late afternoon and then shipped to the hub where shipments arrive from the terminals into the late evening and are sorted for delivery early the next day for the terminals.Examiner: Dr. Abubakari Atchulo Page 1 of 2Each terminal in your company is treated as an investment centre and prepares individual income statements each month. Each terminal receives 30% of the revenue from packages that it picks up and 30% of the revenue from the packages it delivers. The remaining 40% of the revenue from each transaction goes to the hub. Each terminal accumulates its own costs. All costs relating to travel to and from the hub are charged to the hub. The revenue per package is based on size and service type and not the distance the package travels. (There are two services: overnight and ground delivery, which takes between 1 and 7 days, depending on the distance traveled).All customer service is done through a central service group located in the hub. Customers access this service centre through a toll-free telephone number. The most common calls to customer service include requests for package pickup, requests to trace an overdue package, and requests for billing information. The company has invested in complex and expensive package tracking equipment that monitors the packages trip through the system by scanning the bar code placed on every package. The bar code is scanned when the package is picked up, enters the originating terminal, leaves the originating terminal, arrives at the hub, leaves the hub, arrives at the destination terminal, and is delivered to the customers. All scanning is done with hand held wands that transmit the information to the regional and then central computer.The major staff functions in each terminal are administrative (accounting, clerical, and executive), marketing (the sales staff), courier (the people who pick up and deliver the shipments and the equipment they use), and operations (the people and equipment who sort packages in the terminal).This organisation takes customer service very seriously. The revenue for any package that fails to meet the organisations service commitment to the customer is not assigned to the originating and destination terminals.All company employees receive a wage and a bonus based on the terminals economic value added. This system has promoted many debates about the sharing rules for revenues, the inherent inequity of the existing system, and the appropriateness of the revenue share for the hub. Service problems have arisen primarily relating to overdue packages. The terminals believe that most of the service problems relate to wrong sorting in the hub, resulting in packages being sent to the wrong terminals.Required:A) Explain why an investment centre is or not an appropriate organisational design in ATCHULO Company Ltd.
