Answer: d. All of the above
Explanation:
A cost driver refers to the activity that causes an actual change in the cost of a transaction and by extension it's local cost.
For example, cost driver of labor would be the number of people working or cost driver of Electricity paid would be the actual number of units consumed.
In the above, the products and services mentioned are the integral activities for those firms so they are cost drivers to those firms.

g A particular brand of toothpaste costs 4 British pounds in London. The nominal exchange rate is .80 and the real exchange rate is about 1.16. These numbers imply that the U.S. price of the same toothpaste is about a. $5.79 b. $4.29 c. $3.70 d. $2.76
Answer:
The answer is option (d)$2.76
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The cost of a particular brand of toothpaste = 4 pounds
The exchange rate = .80
Real exchange rate = 1.16
Now
Real exchange rate is given as:
R = real exchange rate
e = nominal exchange rate
PF = foreign price
P = domestic price
Suppose we say that U.S. is a domestic country and British is a foreign country we have the following formula below:
R = e(PF/P)
R = 1.16
e = 0.80
PF = 4
Thus
R = e(PF/P)
1.16 = 0.80(4/P)
P = 3.2/1.16
= 2.7586207
= $2.76
Therefore, The U.S rice of the same toothpaste is about $2.76

The Morris Corporation has $350,000 of debt outstanding, and it pays an interest rate of 8% annually. Morris's annual sales are $1.75 million, its average tax rate is 30%, and its net profit margin on sales is 8%. If the company does not maintain a TIE ratio of at least 3 to 1, its bank will refuse to renew the loan and bankruptcy will result. What is Morris's TIE ratio? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
8.14 times
Explanation:
The computation of the Time interest earned ratio is shown below:
As we know that
Times interest earned ratio = (Earnings before interest and taxes) ÷ (Interest expense)
where,
Earnings before interest and taxes = Income before income tax for the year + Interest expense
But before tha, we need to do the following calculations
The interest amount is
= $350,000 × 0.08
= $28,000
The net profit is
= $1,750,000 × 8%
= $140,000
The EBIT is
= Profit before tax + interest expense
= $140,000 ÷ (1 - 0.30) + $28,000
= $200,000 + $28,000
= $228,000
And, the interest expense is $28,000
So, the TIE ratio is
= $228,000 ÷ $28,000
= 8.14 times
Under the First Amendment, commercial speech is:
a. subject to intermediate scrutiny unlike political speech.
b. completely suppressed regardless of it being misleading or truthful.
c. subject to strict scrutiny just like political speech.
d. completely unregulated unless it is put in writing.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: subject to intermediate scrutiny unlike political speech.
Explanation:
On the one hand, the First Amendment to the United States Constitution is the law that basically protects the rights of the people to have a free speech and moreover, establishes that the government can not intervene in an establishment of religion and prohibits the free exercise of religion.
On the other hand, the Commercial Speech under the First Amendment is seen as a particular case of speech due to the fact that this one can be harmful for the people and therefore can be fraudulent to them and in order to prevent that from happening the First Amendment does not protect so much the commercial speech and this last one is far more regulate it by the government than political speech.
Waterway’s Market recorded the following events involving a recent purchase of merchandise:
Received goods for $75000, terms 1/10, n/30.
Returned $1100 of the shipment for credit.
Paid $400 freight on the shipment.
Paid the invoice within the discount period.
As a result of these events, the company’s inventory increased by:_______.
Answer:
$73,561
Explanation:
The computation of inventory increased is shown below:-
Inventory increase = (Received goods - Returned goods) × (1 - 0.01) + Freight charges
= ($75,000 - $1,100) × 0.99 + $400
= $73,900 × 0.99 + $400
= $73,161 + $400
= $73,561
Therefore for computing the increased inventory we have simply applied the above formula.
LeBron James (LBJ) Corporation agrees on January 1, 2020, to lease equipment from Wildhorse, Inc. for 3 years. The lease calls for annual lease payments of $21,000 at the beginning of each year. The lease does not transfer ownership, nor does it contain a bargain purchase option, and is not a specialized asset. In addition, the useful life of the equipment is 10 years, and the present value of the lease payments is less than 90% of the fair value of the equipment. This lease is properly classified as an operating lease. The credit to Lease Liability on December 31, 2020 is ________.
Answer:
interest expense 4,881.08 debit
lease liability 4,881.08 credit
Explanation:
We solve for the present value of the lease payment and with that we solve forthe interest accrued during the period which will be interest expense debit and lease liability credit.

A company had net sales of $21,500 and ending accounts receivable of $2,700 for the current period. Its days' sales uncollected equals: (Use 365 days a year.) Multiple Choice 8.0 days. 58.9 days. 45.8 days. 7.4 days. 45.2 days.
Answer:
45.8 days
Explanation:
The computation of the days sales uncollected is shown below:
But before that first we need to find out the inventory turnover ratio which is
Inventory turnover ratio = Sales ÷ Accounts receivable
= $21,500 ÷ $2,700
= 7.96 times
Now Days sales uncollected is
= 365 ÷ Inventory turnover ratio
= 365 ÷ 7.96
= 45.8 days
We simply applied the above formulas

At this price, the bonds yield 8.1 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?
Answer:
7.8%
Explanation:
For computing the coupon rate first we have to determine the PMT by using the PMT formula which is shown in the attachment below:
Given that,
Present value = $969
Future value or Face value = $1,000
RATE =8.1%
NPER = 17 years
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the PMT is $77.58
Now the coupon rate is
= $77.58 ÷ $1,000
= 7.8%
From 2010 to 2011, nation A's real GDP increased from $100 billion to $106 billion and its population grew from 50 million to 51 million. As a result, real GDP per capita _____ because real GDP rose _____ than the population.
Answer:
As a result, real GDP per capita WILL INCREASE because real GDP rose MORE than the population.
Explanation:
increase in real GDP = $106 - $101 = $5 billion, or 4.95%
population increase = 51 - 50 = 1 million people, or 2%
real GDP per capita 2010 = $101,000 / 50 = $2,020
real GDP per capita 2011 = $106,000 / 51 = $2,078
since the real GDP increased by almost 5%, while the population increased only by 2%, the real GDP per capita will increase by 2.9%
Pettygrove Company had 1,700,000 shares of $10 par value common stock outstanding. The amount of additional paid-in capital is $8,500,000, and Retained Earnings is $2,550,000. The company issues a 2-for-1 stock split. The market price of the stock is $11. What is the balance in the Common Stock account after this issuance
Answer:
$17,000,000
Explanation:
Balance in common stock after the issuance = $1700,000 x $10
Balance in common stock after the issuance = $17,000,000
You can't find difference between balance of common stock, additional paid-in capital, and retained earnings when a company issues a stock split But there would be surely a change in par value and number of outstanding shares. Market value of share will either increase or decrease.

In 2016, Akin Company sold 3,000 units at $750.00 each. Variable expenses were $375.00 per unit, and fixed expenses were $130,000. The same selling price is expected for 2017. Akin is tentatively planning to invest in equipment that would increase fixed costs by 17.00%, while decreasing variable costs per unit by 20.00%. What is the company's break-even point in units for 2017?
Answer:
338
Explanation:
Break even point = F/ P - V
F = fixed cost
P = price
V = variable cost
Change in fixed cost = $130,000 × 1.17 = $152,100
Change in variable cost = $375.00 × 0.80 = $300
$152,100 / $750.00 - $300 = $152,100 / $450 = 338

Roy Company manufactures a product in Departments A and B. Materials are added at the beginning of the process in Department B. Roy uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Conversion costs for Department B were 50% complete with respect to the 6,000 units in the beginning work in process and 75% complete with respect to the 8,000 units in the ending work in process. A total of 12,000 units were completed and transferred out of Department B during February. An analysis of the costs in Department B for February follows: The total cost per equivalent unit during February was closest to:_________
a. $2.75
b. $2.78
c. $2.82
d. $2.85
Answer:
Number of equivalent units= 18,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Conversion costs for Department B were 50% complete concerning the 6,000 units in the beginning work in process and 75% complete for the 8,000 units in the ending work in process. A total of 12,000 units were completed and transferred out of Department B during February.
With the information provided, we can calculate the number of equivalent units of the period.
Beginning work in process = 6,000*0.5= 3,000
Units started and completed = 12,000 - 3,000= 9,000
Ending work in process completed= 8,000*0.75= 6,000
Number of equivalent units= 18,000
Consider a lake found in the town of Center Barnstead, and then answer the questions that follow.
The town has a hiking lodge whose visitors use the lake for recreation. The town also has a fish cannery that dumps industrial waste into the lake. This pollutes the lake and makes it a less desirable vacation destination. That is, the fish cannery's waste decreases the hiking lodge's economic profit.
Suppose that the chemical plant could use a different production method that involves recycling water. This would reduce the pollution in the lake to levels safe for recreation, and the hiking lodge would no longer be affected. If the chemical plant uses the recycling method, then the chemical plant's economic profit is $1,400 per week, and the hiking lodge's economic profit is $2,700 per week. If the chemical plant does not use the recycling
method, then the chemical plant's economic profit is $2,200 per week, and the hiking lodge's economic profit is $1,500 per week. These figures are summarized in the following table.
Complete the following table by computing the total profit (the chemical plant's economic profit and the hiking lodge's economic profit combined) with and without recycling.
Action Chemical Plant Hiking Lodge Total
No recycling $2200 $1500 ______
Recycling $1400 $2700 ______
Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is:________
Answer:
a. Total profit without recycling is $3,700, while Total profit with recycling is $41,000.
b. Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is: implemented or utilized.
Explanation:
a. Complete the following table by computing the total profit (the chemical plant's economic profit and the hiking lodge's economic profit combined) with and without recycling.
These can be computed by adding the profit under the two scenario as follows:
Total profit without recycling = Chemical plant's economic profit without recycling + Hiking lodge's economic profit without recycling = $2,200 + $1,500 = $3,700
Total profit with recycling = Chemical plant's economic profit with recycling + Hiking lodge's economic profit with recycling = $1,400 + $2,700 = $4,100
The table can therefore be reproduced as follows:
Action Chemical Plant Hiking Lodge Total
No recycling $2,200 $1,500 $3,700
Recycling $1,400 $2,700 $4,100
b. Total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is:________
From part a. above, total economic profit is highest when the recycling production method is: implemented or utilized.
The reason is that total profit with recycling of $4,100 is greater than total profit without recycling of $3,700.
Based on the table, the Center Barnstead Town receives more economic benefit when the Fish Cannery recycles the industrial waste.
Though, Cannery's revenue drops by $800 ($2,200 - $1,400), the Hiking Lodge's revenue increases by $1,200 ($2,700 - $1,500). These results cause the net total revenue for the town to increase by $400 ($1,200 - $800) plus the cleaner ecosystem.
Data and Calculations:
Action Chemical Plant Hiking Lodge Total
No recycling $2,200 $1,500 $3,700 ($2,200 + $1,500)
Recycling $1,400 $2,700 $4,100 ($1,400 + $2,700)
Total increase in Revenue with recycling = $400 ($4,100 - $3,700)
Thus, it is in the best economic interest of the town to ensure that the Cannery recycles the waste.

Therefore for computing the interest rate spread we simply applied the above formula and ignore all other amount as it is not relevant.
Suppose a firm’s sales for the year = $1200 and its average receivables balance is $200. What is the firm’s Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio, expressed in days (not times per year)?
Answer:
61 days
Explanation:
Accounts receivable turn over ratio is an efficiency ratio that is used to calculate how efficiently a company is receiving its sales on account payments . This measures the number of times in a period that a company collects its average accounts receivable.
When expressed in days , it reveals the number of days it takes a sales on account customer to make payment
Workings
Annual sales = 1200
Average receivable balance = 200
Receivable turnover ratio = Annual sales /average receivable balance
1200/ 200 = 6
Account receivable turnover ratio in days = 365/receivable turnover ration
365/6 = 60.8 days = approximately 61 days
This shows that it takes a customer approximately 61 days to pay their purchase on account which

A new company plans to lose money for the first 5 years of its existence. They think they will lose $4,000,000 in year 1 and the losses are expected to decrease by $150,000 per year for the next three years. At 8% MARR what is the Annual Worth of their losses
Answer:
The answer is $3,789.363
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
For the first 5 years of functioning, a new company plans to lose money.
In the first year they think they will lose money of the amount = $4,000,000
The expected decrease (losses) is =$150,000 (next three years)
MARR = 8%
Now
We find the annual worth losses which is given below:
Annual worth = $4,000,000 - $150,000(A/G, 8%, 4)
(A/G,i, N) = 1/i - N/(1 +i)^N -1
= 1/0.08 - 4/(1 + 0.08)^4 -1
= 12.5 -4/1.360488961 -1
=12.5 - 11.09606977
=1.40425
Thus,
AW = $4,000,000 - $150,000 ( 1.40425)
AW = $4,000,000 -$210637.5
AW = $3,789. 363
Therefore, the annual worth pf their losses is $3,789.363

Remsco has taxable income of $61,000 and a charitable contribution limit modified taxable income of $72,500. Its charitable contributions for the year were $7,540. What is Remsco's current-year charitable contribution deduction and contribution carryover
Answer:
Remsco's current-year charitable contribution deduction is $7,250
Contribution carryover is $ 290
Explanation:
Taxable income = $61,000
Charitable contribution limit modified taxable income = $72,500
Charitable contributions for the year = $7,540
Since, charitable contribution deduction is limited to 10% of charitable contribution limit modified taxable income ,
Remsco's current-year charitable contribution deduction = $72,500 x 10%

How much is the value of full costing ending inventory?
Answer:
$8,750
Explanation:
1,000 units were produced and 800 were sold, so ending inventory = 200 units
total production cost per unit (under full costing) = $35,000 / 800 = $43.75
ending inventory = $43.75 x 200 = $8,750
Full costing basically refers to absorption costing, which calculates COGS using both variable and fixed costs (total production costs).
There is often litter along highways but rarely in people's yards. Which of the following statements help explain this observation?
a. Littering on the highway generates a positive externality.
b. The private cost of littering on the highway is low.
c. The private cost of littering on your own yard exceeds the social cost.
Answer:
The answer is A and C
Explanation:
Solution
Social costs refers to the total cost of an activity incurred by society.
Private costs are direct costs incurred by an individual
Frequently there is liter along the high ways but rarely in people's yards because the social cost of littering is more than private cost. since the society must bear the negative externality, the social cost is more and the private cost is less.
The private cost is higher when one liters on his own yard as the cost is only borne or carried by the owner and not the society.

We must include here FUTA taxes paid by the employer. In this case, since we are not given the state unemployment (SUTA) tax rate, we can only calculate the federal unemployment tax 6% x $11,900 = $714. Both the employee and employer pays FICA taxes in an equal amount. The amount that is withheld from the employee's paycheck is identified as FICA tax withholding.

Using both the supply and demand for bonds and liquidity preference framework, show how interest rate are affected when the riskiness of bonds rises. Are the results the same in the two frame works
Answer:
Yes, the results are the same in both frameworks. Please see below for explanation.
Explanation:
With regards to the bond supply and demand framework, people will look to buy more bonds since they are more wealthy now. Hence, the supply of bonds will increase. The supply curve and the demand curve will both move to the right, with the former shifting more than the latter. The equilibrium interest rate will increase.
With regards to the liquidity preference framework, once the economy experiences a positive shift, there will also be an increase in the demand for money. People will make an increased number of transactions as well and hence, the demand curve will move towards the right. The equilibrium interest rate will rise too.
