The maximum prices she would have been willing to pay for each bottle are $6 for the first bottle, $5 for the second bottle, $4 for the third bottle, and $3 for the fourth bottle. The marginal cost of producing the bottles is $2.50. What is Pule's consumer surplus on the third bottle of bathroom cleaner?a. $.50 b. $6c. $1d. $0
Answer:
The correct answer is:
$1 (d)
Explanation:
A consumer surplus is the difference between what a consumer is willing to pay and what they are able to pay for a particular good or service. It is simply the extra benefit gained by the consumer for paying lesser for a good or service than what they actually intended to pay. Based on this, it is noticed that consumer surplus tends to increase as the market price of goods/services fall, and reduce as their price increases. It is represented mathematically as:
Consumer surplus = (Price willing to pay) - (Actual price paid)
In this example, the consumer surplus is calculated thus:
price willing to pay for third bottle = $4
Price paid = $3
Consumer surplus = 4 - 3 = $1
Casey Electronics has a piece of machinery that costs $300,000 and is expected to have a useful life of 6 years or 40,000 hours. Residual value is expected to be $50,000.Using the units-of-production method, what is depreciation expense for the first year assuming it was used 6,000 hours?a) $37,500b) $70,000c) $81,000d) $41,667
Answer:
a) $37,500
Explanation:
In order to determine the depreciation for year 1 based on the units-of-production method, we apply the formula below:
Annual Depreciation= Depreciable Value × Units produced during the year /Estimated total production
Depreciable Value = Original cost – Scrap value
depreciable value=$300,000-$50,000=$250,000
Units produced during the year=6,000 hours
Estimated total production in hours=40,000 hours
first-year depreciation=$250,000*6000/40000
first-year depreciation=$ 37,500.00

2. HomeSafe sells and installs wireless home security systems in 5 districts across the Midwest. HomeSafe has about 20 sales reps in each district. At the end of each year, the top sales rep from each district wins an extra week of paid vacation time to use in the following year.
3. Your organization is in a rut. Everyone is doing the same things they’ve always done and there’s nothing creative or groundbreaking happening. You have two employees retiring soon and decide to replace them with people from completely different industries to bring in novel perspectives and keep everyone on their toes.
4. People in your office seem to be afraid to try new things, so the company sets up a monthly brainstorming session where employees can safely present wild and innovative new ideas. The sessions happen after work hours, but everyone who attends and contributes at least one new idea gets to take the last Friday of the month off of work.
5.

Question Completion:
Managers are constantly confronted with conflicts—both functional and dysfunctional-while trying to reach organizational goals. This activity is important because effective management requires the ability to stimulate functional conflicts.
The goal of this exercise is to challenge your knowledge of the techniques for stimulating functional conflict.
Select the most appropriate technique for stimulating functional conflict for each of the items listed below.
Options:
Spur competition among employees
Change the organization's culture and procedures
Bring in outsiders for new perspectives
Use programmed conflict
Answer:
1. Change the organization's culture and procedures
2. Spur competition among employees
3. Bring in outsiders for new perspectives
4. Spur competition among employees
5. Use programmed conflict
Explanation:
Functional workplace conflicts are purposeful conflicts that spur healthy, constructive, and problem-solving disagreements between functional groups or individuals. They help to identify problems early, as these regulated conflicts trigger some actions that may expose other underlying problems. They also improve productivity by galvanizing the workforce to improve their individual insights, relationships with others, and commitment to the achievement of organizational success. Functional conflicts should be encouraged by management, while efforts should be exerted to reduce dysfunctional conflicts through appropriate mediations.
Rearden Metal has a bond issue outstanding with ten years to maturity, a yield to maturity of 8.6%, and a B rating. The corresponding risk-free rate is 3% and the market risk premium is 6%. Assuming a normal economy, the expected return on Rearden Metal's debt is closest to:______
a. 0.6%
b. 1.6%
c. 4.6%
d. 6.0%
Answer:
c. 4.6%
Explanation:
the question is incomplete, since it is missing the average beta for B rated bonds, so I looked for similar questions: average beta for B bonds = 0.26 and since we are assuming a normal economy, we should use it:
the expected return on the bonds = risk free rate + (average beta of B rated bonds x risk premium)
expected return = 3% + (0.26 x 6%)
expected return = 3% + (0.26 x 6%) = 3% + 1.56% = 4.56% ≈ 4.6%
15-9: Harris Company must set its investment and dividend policies for the coming year. It has three independent projects from which to choose, each of which requires a $3 million investment. These projects have different levels of risk, and therefore different costs of capital. Their projected IRRs and costs of capital are as follows: Project A: Cost of capital: 17%; IRR: 20% Project B: Cost of capital: 13%; IRR: 14% Project C: Cost of capital: 7%; IRR: 9% Haris intends to maintain its 35% debt and 65% common equity capital structure, and its net income is expected to be $7,500,000. If Harris maintains its residual dividend policy (with all distributions in the form of dividends), what will its payout ratio be?
Answer:
Its payout ratio will be 22%
Explanation:
Residual dividend policy is a policy where a company uses the residual equity to fund dividend payments.
Accept Project A, B and C as they all have higher Cost of capital than the IRR
The total investment = $3,000,000 * 3 = $9,000,000
Dividend = Earnings - Investment in equity = $7,500,000 - 65%*$9,000,000 = $7,500,000 - $5,850,000 = $1,650,000
Dividend payout ratio = Dividend / Total earnings = $1,650,000 / $7,500,000 = 0.22 = 22%

Investment in an equipment project yields a net present worth of (–$150) at 15% interest rate and $95 at 20% interest rate. Calculate the internal rate of return on this investment.
Answer:
18.067%
Explanation:
Let , i = 15% , then NPV = -$150 ,
When i = 20%, NPV = $95 A
At IRR , let the NPV = 0
Now, using the linear interpolation method we get
20% - 15%/ IRR -15 = 95-(-150) / 0-(-150)
20% - 15%/ IRR -15 = 245 / 150
5 / IRR -15 = 1.63
1/IRR -15 = 0.326
1/0.326 = IRR - 15
3.067 = IRR -15
IRR = 3.067+ 15
IRR = 18.067%

Answer:
The correct option is c. 5 units.
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before the question is answered. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of change in price and Quantity Demanded from the bottom.
From the table in the question and the attached excel file, whenever price changes (falls or increases) by $1, we have:
Change in Quantity Demanded by Michelle = 1
Change Quantity Demanded by Laura = 2
Change Quantity Demanded by Hillary = 2
Total change in quantity demanded = Change in Quantity Demanded by Michelle + Change Quantity Demanded by Laura + Change Quantity Demanded by Hillary = 1 + 2 + 2 = 5 units
From the above calculation therefore, if the market consists of Michelle, Laura, and Hillary and the price falls by $1, the quantity demanded in the market increases by the total change in quantity demanded, i.e. by 5 units.
Therefore, the correct option is c. 5 units.
Martinez Corporation purchased machinery on January 1, 2022, at a cost of $268,000. The estimated useful life of the machinery is 4 years, with an estimated salvage value at the end of that period of $31,800. The company is considering different depreciation methods that could be used for financial reporting purposes.
(SEE PICTURE)
Answer:
see below
Explanation:
1. Depreciation using the straight-line method.
Under the straight-line method, depreciation is a constant figure in every year of an asset's useful life.
The calculation of depreciation expense is by establishing the depreciable amount, which is the asset cost minus salvage value.
Depreciable amount = Asset cost - Salvage value.
In this case
Depreciable amount = $268,000 - $31,800
=$236,200
The depreciation rate = 1/4 x 100 = 25%
Depreciation per year
=25/100 x $236,200
=$59,050
year Depreciable cost rate Amount
2022 $236,200 25% $59,050
2023 $236,200 25% $59,050
2024 $236,200 25% $59,050
2025 $236,200 25% $59,050
2. Depreciation under the double-declining method.
The double-declining method uses twice the rate of the straight-line depreciation method.
The depreciation rate for the straight-line method is 25%, double-declining will use 50%. The salvage value is $31,800. The asset is depreciated until the salvage value is achieved.
year Depreciable cost rate Amount
2022 $268,000 50% $134,000
2023 $134,000 50% $67,000
2024 $67,000 50% $33,500
2024 $33,500 - $1,700
Balance : salvage value of $31,800
b The straight-line method would have the highest income reported in 2022. It reports less depreciation expense.
c. both Methods will report the same amount of income over the 4 year period.
All of the following are true except:___________
a. A favorable labor efficiency variance could result from using higher quality materials that result in fewer inspections.
b. A favorable labor rate variance could result from lower wage workers quitting.
c. A favorable materials price variance could result from purchasing identical materials from another supplier at a lower price.
d. An unfavorable materials usage variance could result from not efficiently utilizing raw materials, thus causing waste.
e. An unfavorable labor efficiency variance can be caused by machine downtime, and poor quality materials.
Answer:
b. A favorable labor rate variance could result from lower wage workers quitting.
Explanation:
The reason is because Lower wage workers quitting will often result in increase labour cost and the Increase in labour cost will be resulted in unfavorable labour variance. Hence, the option B is incorrect.
Bill Darby started Darby Company on January 1, 2016. The company experienced the following events during its first year of operation:
a. Earned $1,600 of cash revenue.
b. Borrowed $3,000 cash from the bank.
c. Adjusted the accounting records to recognize accrued interest expense on the bank note. The note, issued on September 1, Year 1, had a one-year term and an 10 percent annual interest rate.
Required:
a. What is the amount of interest payable at December 31, 2016?
b. What is the amount of interest expense in 2016?
c. What is the amount of interest paid in 2016?
Answer:
Darby Company
a. The amount of interest payable at December 31, 2016 is $100.
b. The amount of interest expense in 2016 is $100.
c. The amount of interest paid in 2016 is $0.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Notes Payable to the bank = $3,000
Interest rate = 10%
Period of note = 1 year
Issue date = September 1
Interest on the note = $3,000 * 10% * 4/12 = $100
b) The interest payable in 2016 equals the interest expense for 2016. From the calculations, there is no payment for interest expense in 2016, that is why the interest payable equals the interest expense.
Calculate the yield to maturity of a zero coupon bond with a face value (par value) of $1,000, maturing in 15 years and selling for a price of $525.75.a. 5.62%.b. 4.38%.c. 8.74%.d. 15.26%.e. 16.27%.
Answer:
YTM = 0.043793 or 4.3793% rounded off to 4.38%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity or YTM is the yield or return that an investor can earn on the bond if the bond is purchased today and is held till the bond matures. The formula to calculate the Yield to maturity of a zero coupon bond is as follows,
YTM = [ (( F / PV)^1/n) - 1 ]
Where,
F is the Face value of the bond
PV is the current value of the bond
n is the number of years to maturity
YTM = [ (( 1000 / 525.75)^1/15) - 1 ]
YTM = 0.043793 or 4.3793% rounded off to 4.38%

Union local school district has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 3.2 percent paid semiannually and 16 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on these bonds is 3.7 percent and the bonds have a par value of $5,000. What is the dollar price of the bonds?
Answer:
Bond Price= $4,700.15
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
coupon rate= 0.032/2= 0.016
YTM= 0.037/2= 0.0185
Number of periods= 16*2= 32
Par value= $5,000
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:
Bond Price= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]
Bond Price= 80*{[1 - (1.0185^-32)] / 0.0185} + (5,000/1.0185^32)
Bond Price= 1,919.05 + 2,781.10
Bond Price= $4,700.15
Answer:
4700.15
Explanation:
Using BA calculator:
N=2*16=32 (because semiannually)
I/Y=3.7%/2=1.85% (because semiannually)
PMT=3.2%/2*5000=1.6%*5000=80
FV=5000
Compute PV=4700.15

The Backwoods American company in Problem 2.1 produces approximately 20,000 parkas annually. The quality management program the company implemented was able to improve the average percentage of good parkas produced by 2% each year, beginning with 83% good-quality parkas in 2012. Only about 20% of poor-quality parkas can be reworked.
Total (not per parka) direct manufacturing cost is given below:
Year 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007
Direct Manufacturing Cost $420,900 $423,400 $424,700 $436,100 $435,500
A) Compute the product yield for each of the five years.
B) Using a rework cost of $12 per parka, determine the manufacturing cost per good parka for each of the five years. What you can you conclude about the improvement process?
Answer:
a. 2003 product yield = 20,000(0.83) + 20,000 (1 - 0.83)(0.20)
= 16,600 + 680
= 17,280 parkas
2004 product yield = 20,000*(0.85) + 20,000*(0.15)(0.20)
= 17,000 + 600
= 17,600 parkas
2005 product yield = 20,000*(0.87) + 20,000*(0.13)(0.20)
= 17,400 + 520
= 17,920 parkas
2006 product yield = 20,000*(0.89) + 20,000*(0.11)(0.20)
= 17,800 + 440
= 18,240 parkas
2007 product yield = 20,000*(0.91) + 20,000*(0.09)(0.20)
= 18,200 + 360
= 18,560 parkas
b. 2003 manufacturing cost per good parka = 420,900 + 12*(20,000)(0.17)(0.20) /17,280
= 420,900 + 12 (680) / 17,280
= 429,060 /17,280
= $24.83
2004 manufacturing cost per good parka = 423,400 + 12*(600) /17,600
= 430,600 /17,600
= $24.47
2005 manufacturing cost per good parka = 424,700 + 12*(520) / 17,920
= 430,940 /17,920
= $24.05
2006 manufacturing cost per good parka = 436,100 + 12*(440) / 18,240
= 441,380 /18,240
= $24.20
2007 manufacturing cost per good parka = 435,500 + 12 *(360) /18,560
= 439,820 / 18,560
= $23.70

Answer:
b. can potentially remedy the problem an increase economic efficiency.
Explanation:
A market failure can be defined as a situation in which the market fails to produce an efficient level of output required to meet the demands of the consumers or customers.
This ultimately implies that, a market failure arises when there is inefficiency in the distribution or allocation of goods and services in a free market. Thus, the demand of the consumer of these goods and services are not being met with the level of supply (output) required i.e the forces of demand and supply are not efficient in producing the level of output required by the economy.
Some of the causes of market failure are imperfect information, monopoly, oligopoly, externalities etc.
Hence, when markets fail, public policy can potentially remedy the problem an increase economic efficiency.

In the Keynesian model, when government decreases its spending by $20 billion, and it decreases taxes by $30 billion, and the MPC is .75, by how much will total spending in the economy change?A) Total spending will increase by $70 billion.
B) Total spending will decrease by $270 billion.
C) Total spending will increase by $200 billion.
D) Total spending will increase by $10 billion.
E) Total spending will decrease by $470 billion.
Answer:
D) Total spending will increase by $10 billion.
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Multiplier = 1 ÷ 1 -MPC
= 1 ÷ 1 - 0.75
= 1 ÷ 0.25
= 4
When there is a decrease in tax so the total spending increase is $30 billion
And, the reduction in spending because of the reduction in the government expenditure is $20 billion
So, the increase in total spending is
= $30 billion - $20 billion
= $10 billions
hence, the correct option is D.

The contract includes installation which costs $4,000 and a maintenance agreement over the life of the printer at a cost of $10,000. The printer cannot be operated without the installation. Destin Company as well as other companies could provide the installation and maintenance agreement. What are Destin Company's performance obligations in this contract?
Answer:
From the question, the contract stipulates that Destin Company has three (3) performance obligations.
1. Manufacture a new 3D printer
2. Installation of the 3D printer.
3. Maintenance of the 3D printer over the life of the printer.
All three of these are to be performed by Destin Company for the client they signed the contract with.
Ben and Mildred's Stables used two different independent variables (trainer hours and number of? horses) in two different equations to evaluate the cost of training horses. The most recent results of the two regressions are as follows:
Trainer's hours: Variable Coefficient Standard Error t-Value Constant $1,005.45 $217.52 4.61 Independent Variable $22.54 $3.23 7.40 r2 = 0.56 Number of horses: Variable Coefficient Standard Error t-Value Constant $5,240.20 $1,180.32 4.44 Independent Variable $22.54 $3.23 4.75 r2= 0.63
What is the estimated total cost for the coming year if 14,700 trainer hours are incurred and the stable has 310 horses to be trained, based upon the best cost driver?
A. $13,995,671.20
B. $7,992.85
C. $332,343.45
D. $300,276.50
Answer:
the estimated total cost for the coming year is $12,227.60
Explanation:
The computation of the estimated total cost is shown below:
y
= Constant coefficient + independent variable coefficient × number of horses
= $5,240.20 + $22.54 × 310 horses
= $5,240.20 + $6,987.40
= $12,227.60
This is the answer but not the same is to be given in the options
hence, the estimated total cost for the coming year is $12,227.60
The point where marginal cost curve crosses the ____________ and ___________ curve is where the profit maximizing quantity demanded (dropping down to the X-axis) and price (going up to the demand curve or average revenue curve and over to the Y-axis) are determined.
Answer:
This question is incomplete, the options are missing and the word "and" between the gaps is wrong and should not be there.
The options are the following:
a) Marginal revenue
b) Average revenue
c) Variable cost
d) Fixed cost
And the correct answer is the option A: Marginal revenue.
Explanation:
To begin with, in the microeconomics theory the marginal analysis is very well known for being one of the reasons why the price is determined in the markets under the laws of economic sciences. Moreover, this marginal analysis focus on the interaction between all the curves that represents the costs and revenues that are related to the consumer of a good or service in a particular market. In the graphic, the point where the marginal cost curve equals the marginal revenue curve is where the profit maximizing quantity demanded and the price are the same and therefore those are the equilibrium numbers.
Peter, has discovered another wine, wine D. Wine drinkers are willing to pay 45 dollars to drink it right now. The amount that wine drinkers are willing to pay will rise by 15 dollars each year that the wine ages. The interest rate is 10%. How much would Peter be willing to pay for the wine if he buys it as an investment? (Pick the closest answer.)
a. 76 dollars
b. 45 dollars
c. 150 dollars
d. 495 dollars
e. 71 dollars
Answer:
e. 71 dollars
Explanation:
Peter was willing to but the wine for $45
In a year, there is an increase of $15 = $45 + $15 = $60
The interest rate of 10% of $60 = $6
Total = $66 ~ $70
Therefore, the amount he is willing to pay for the win if he buys it as investment would be 71 dollars.
