Answer:
the opportunity cost of the good measured on the horizontal axis.
Explanation:
The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.
The PPF is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.
Stevens placed an ad in a literary magazine offering $7,400 for a complete set of Vacation in Paradise, a five volume set. Adams, who was not aware of the offer, gave to Stevens four volumes of the Vacation in Paradise set as a birthday present. Adams was informed of the offer at some point, obtained the missing volume, brought the volume to Stevens and requested the $7,400 payment. Stevens refused. If Adams sues, will he prevail
Answer:
Yes he will prevail because the advert placed is a unilateral contract
Explanation:
A unilateral contract is one that has only one promisor who receives a promise for his from the offeror. It is usually settlement for a particular service or product.
On the other hand bilateral agreement has both parties as the promisor and offeror. Meaning both of them have conditions that must be fulfilled in the contract by the other person.
In the given instance Stevens placed an ad in a literary magazine offering $7,400 for a complete set of Vacation in Paradise, a five volume set.
Any service short of this can be viewed as a failure in the contract.
Adams gave to Stevens four volumes of the Vacation in Paradise set as a birthday present. Adams was informed of the offer at some point, obtained the missing volume, brought the volume to Stevens.
Since Adams had not initially satisfied conditions set by Stevens, Stevens can refuse to make the $7,400 payment
"You think that you will be able to retire when you have $1 million dollars in your retirement account. Currently, you only have $200,000 in the account. You plan to save $5000 every year, and your account can generate an annual return of 6%. How many more years you need to work before you can retire?"
Answer:
23 years
Explanation:
PV = 200000
PMT = 5000
RATE = 6%
FV = 1000000
Number of years = Nper(Rate, -Pmt, -Pv, Fv)
Number of years = Nper(6%, -5000, -200000,1000000)
Number of years = 23 years
Jackson, Inc. produces two different products (Product 5 and Product Z) using two different activities:Machining, which uses machine hours as an activity driver, and Inspection, which uses a number of batches as an activity driver. The cost of Machining is $255,000, while the cost of Inspection is $35,000. Product 5 uses 33% of total machine hours and 65% of total batches.What is the total Inspection cost assigned to Product Z?(a) $12,250(b) $17,500(c) $84,150(d) $170,850
Answer:
Inspection costs allocated= $12,250
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The cost of Machining is $255,000, while the cost of Inspection is $35,000. Product 5 uses 33% of total machine hours and 65% of total batches.
First, we need to determine the allocation rate of Inspection for Product Z:
Allocation rate Product Z= 1 - Product 5 use of batches
Allocation rate Product Z= 1 - 0.65
Allocation rate Product Z= 0.35
Now, we can allocate Inspection costs:
Inspection costs allocated= 35,000*0.35
Inspection costs allocated= $12,250

On April 1, Cyclone's Co. purchases a trencher for $314,000. The machine is expected to last five years and have a salvage value of $57,000. Exercise 8-11 Straight-line, partial-year depreciation LO C2 Compute depreciation expense at December 31 for the first and second year assuming the company uses the straight-line method.
Answer:
Annual depreciation= $51,400
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $314,000
Salvage value= $57,000
Useful life= 5 years
To calculate the depreciation expense under the straight-line method, we need to use the following formula:
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (314,000 - 57,000) / 5
Annual depreciation= $51,400
The depreciation expense is the same every year.
In the current year, Tanager Corporation (a calendar year C corporation) had operating income of $480,000 and operating expenses of $390,000. In addition, Tanager had a long-term capital gain of $55,000 and a short-term capital loss of $40,000. a. Compute Tanager's taxable income and tax for the year.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Tanager's taxable income would be calculated as:
= Operating income - Operating expense + Long term gain + Short term loss
= $480,000 - $390,000 + $55,000 - $40,000
= $105,000
Tanager's tax for the year will be:
= $105,000 × 21%
= $105,000 × 0.21
= $22,050
A company has3process options with the following costs:Process OptionsABCfixed cost ($)1,200,000220,000580,000variable cost/unit ($)31371)Find the range of forecasted volumes where process Cis optimal.2)The Point of Indifference between Process A and Process Boccurs at a total costof $________.3)The company has chosen process Aand expects to operate at a lossuntil 30,000 units have been sold.What is the price for each unit s
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. First and foremost, we have to get the total cost equations which will be:
Total cost (A) = 1200000 + 3Q
Total Cost (B) = 220000 + 13Q
Total Cost (C) = 580000 + 7Q
To get the range of forecasted volumes where process C is optimal, we have to get the cross-over point between A, B and C which goes thus:
Between A and C will be:
= (1200000 - 580000)/(7 - 3)
= 620000/4
= 155,000
Between B and C will be:
= (220000 - 580000)/(7 - 13)
= 360,000 / 6
= 60,000
Therefore, the range of the forecasted volumes where process C is optimal will be [60000, 155000]
(b) The point of indifference between A and B will be the difference in their fixed cost divided by the difference in their variable cost which will be:
= (1200000 - 220000)/(13 - 3)
= 980,000 / 10
= 98,000
(c) The price for each unit will be:
30,000 = 1200,000 / (Selling price - 3)
Selling price - 3 = 1200,000 / 30,000
Selling price - 3 = 40
Selling price = 40 + 3
Selling price = $43
The Harris company has 3 options for a new production process. A Labor-Intensive process (A) would cost $350,000 for equipment and $35 for labor and materials for each item produced. A More Automated process (B) costs $970,000 in equipment but has a labor/material cost of $30 per item produced. A Fully Automated process (C) costs $2,510,000 for equipment and $22 per item produced. Based solely on cost, for what range of production should process B be chosen
Answer:
B is more profitable when the production level is higher than 124,000 units, but lower than 192,500
Explanation:
the difference between B and A per unit = $5
the difference in investment = $970,000 - $350,000 = $620,000
B is more profitable when total output is higher than $620,000 / $5 = 124,000 units
the difference between C and A = $8
the difference in investment = $2,510,000 - $970,000 = $1,540,000
C is more profitable when total output is higher than $1,540,000 / $8 = 192,500 units

the discount rate refers to which tool of monetary policy?
A. The ability to buy and sell treasury securities on an open market.
B. The ability to require banks to hold a certain amount of money in reserve.
C. The ability to adjust interest rates for investors who purchase stocks.
D. The ability to change the cost banks have to pay to borrow money.
Answer:
D. The ability to change the cost banks have to pay to borrow money.
Explanation:
Reserve( FED) sets the discount rate and applies it on loans to commercial banks and other institutions. Commercial banks use the discount rate as the basis for determining the interest rate to charge customers for loans issued.
The discount rate is among the monetary policy tools available for use by the FED. An increase in the discount rate leads to a rise in commercial banks' loan interest rates, thereby discouraging borrowing. Reduced borrowing reduces the money supply in the economy.
2. Firm A has a 15 percent marginal tax rate and Firm Z has a 35 percent marginal tax rate. Firm A owns a controlling interest in Firm Z. The owners of Firm A decide to incur a $40,000 deductible expense that will benefit both firms. Compute the after-tax cost of the expense assuming that: a) Firm A incurs the expense.
Answer: $34000

Covent Gardens Inc. is considering two financial plans for the coming year. Management expects sales to be $300,000, operating costs to be $265,000, assets to be $200,000, and its tax rate to be 35%. Under Plan A it would use 25% debt and 75% common equity. The interest rate on the debt would be 8.8%, but under a contract with existing bondholders the Times Interest Earned (TIE) ratio would have to be maintained at or above 4.5. Under Plan B, the maximum debt that met the TIE constraint would be employed. Assuming that sales, operating costs, assets, the interest rate, and the tax rate would all remain constant, by how much would the ROE change in response to the change in the capital structure?
Answer:
Assets = $200,000
For Plan A
25% debt = 200,000 * 25% = 50,000
75% equity = 200,000 * 75% = 150,000
The debt will generate 8.8% interest expense. Interest expense = 50,000 * 8.8% = 4,400
Income for the expected project under Plan A
Sales revenue 300,00
Operating cost 265,000
EBIT 35,000
Interest expense 4,400
EBT 30,600
Income tax 10,710
Net income $19,890
Times interest earned = EBIT /interest expense = 35,000 / 4,400 = 7.95. So, it achieve the requirement of 4.5 or above.
ROE for plan A = Net income / Equity = 19,890/150,000 = 0,1326 = 13.26%
Under Plan B
We will take as much debt as we can until Times interest earned = 4.5
EBIT / interest expense = Times interest earned
35,000/Interest expense = 4.5
Interest expense = 35,000/4.5
Interest expense = 7.777,78
Net income = (EBIT - interest) x (1- tax-rate)
Net income = (35,000 - 7,777.78) x (1-35%)
Net income = 17.694,443
Interest expense = Debt * Rate
Debt = Interest expense / Rate
Debt = 7,777.78/0.088
Debt = 88.383,86
Asset = Debt + Equity
200,000 = 88,383.86 + Equity
Equity = 200,000 - 88,383.86 =
Equity = 111,616.14
ROE for Plan B = Net income/ Equity = 17,694.443 / 111,616.14 = 0,15852943 = 15.85%
So, we compare both ROE
Plan A = 13.26%
Plan B = 15.85%
Difference = 2.59%
So therefore, using the Plan B will increase the ROE for 2.59%

Before year-end adjusting entries, Crane Company's account balances at December 31, 2017, for accounts receivable and the related allowance for uncollectible accounts were $1400000 and $75000, respectively. An aging of accounts receivable indicated that $120000 of the December 31 receivables are expected to be uncollectible. The net realizable value of accounts receivable after adjustment is
Answer:
$1,280,000
Explanation:
The net realizable value of accounts receivable after the net adjustment is computed as
= Ending balance in Accounts receivables - Uncollectible ageing accounts receivables
Given that;
Ending balance in Accounts receivables = $1,400,000
Uncollectible ageing accounts receivables = $120,000
Net realizable value of the accounts receivables after the net adjustment = $1400,000 - $120,000
= $1,280,000
Golden Corporation uses direct labor-hours in its predetermined overhead rate. At the beginning of the year, the estimated direct labor-hours were 22,300 hours. At the end of the year, actual direct labor-hours for the year were 21,100 hours, the actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $538,980, and manufacturing overhead for the year was underapplied by $24,140. The estimated manufacturing overhead at the beginning of the year used in the predetermined overhead rate must have been
Answer:
$544,120
Explanation:
Calculation for what The estimated manufacturing overhead at the beginning of the year used in the predetermined overhead rate must have been
First step is to calculate the Applied manufacturing overhead
Applied manufacturing overhead = $538,980 - $24,140
Applied manufacturing overhead = $514,840
Second step is to calculate the Predetermined overhead rate using this formula
Predetermined overhead rate = Applied manufacturing overhead / Actual direct labor hours
Let plug in the formula
Predetermined overhead rate = $514,840 / 21,100
Predetermined overhead rate = $24.4
Now let calculate the Estimated total manufacturing overheads using this formula
Estimated total manufacturing overheads = Estimated direct labor hours * Predetermined overhead rate
Let plug in the formula
Estimated total manufacturing overheads= 22,300 *$24.4
Estimated total manufacturing overheads= $544,120
Therefore The estimated manufacturing overhead at the beginning of the year used in the predetermined overhead rate must have been $544,120

Holly files married filing jointly and reports income of $300,000 ($340,000 AGI - $40,000 itemized deductions) before the deduction for qualified business income. She has no capital gains or dividends included in taxable income. Holly's engineering consulting service generates $20,000 of qualified business income. She paid no wages during the current year. What is Holly's deduction for qualified business income
Answer:
$4,000
Explanation:
The computation of the deduction for qualified business income is shown below:
In this the lower amount should be considered
20% of net income or 20% of qualified business income
20% of $300,000 or 20% of $20,000
So the lower amount is $4,000
hence, the same would be represented as a deduction
