What is a rational economic decision?
A)
One in which there are no opportunity costs.
One in which marginal benefits exceed marginal costs.
One in which marginal costs exceed marginal benefits.
D)
One in which the benefits are unknown, but costs are low.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

One in which marginal benefits exceed marginal costs.

Explanation:

A ration decision implies a sensible or reasonable decision.  A rational economic decision has undergone the process of comparing costs and benefits to determine the best option. A rational decision benefits outweigh or are equal to its costs.  

Marginal benefit is the additional gain associated with the production or sale of one more unit, while the marginal cost is the expense of making or selling an extra product. A ration decision will have marginal benefit exceed or equal to marginal cost.

If the discount rate is 21 percent, what is the present value of these cash flows? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Investment X

Present value if discount rate is 7% = $50,167.29

Present value if discount rate is 21% = $30,071.84

Investment Y

Present value if discount rate is 7% = $43,462.09

Present value if discount rate is 21% = $31,015.43

Explanation:

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Investment X

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 9 = $7,700

Present value if discount rate is 7% = $50,167.29

Present value if discount rate is 21% = $30,071.84

Investment Y

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = $10,600

Present value if discount rate is 7% = $43,462.09

Present value if discount rate is 21% = $31,015.43

Multiple Choice Question 48 As a result of a thorough physical inventory, Marigold Company determined that it had inventory worth $320600 at December 31, 2020. This count did not take into consideration the following facts: Walker Consignment currently has goods worth $47700 on its sales floor that belong to Marigold but are being sold on consignment by Walker. The selling price of these goods is $74100. Marigold purchased $21200 of goods that were shipped on December 27, FOB destination, that will be received by Marigold on January 3. Determine the correct amount of inventory that Marigold should report.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Worth of inventory on Dec 31 020 is $320600

Goods sold on consignment will also be included at historical cost and not on the basis of current price because ownership still lies with the company

Total inventory will be thus

320600 + 47700

= $368300 .

Goods to be received later than 31 Dec will not be included in the inventory.

Hence goods purchased worth 21200 will not be included .

Total worth of goods = $368300 .

Answer:

Explanation:

Ten years ago, you took out a $500,000 loan to buy a small apartment building. The loan had a 6.25% interst rate, 25-year amortization and, like all mortgage loans, had monthly payments and interest compounding. Currently, mortgage rates have declined so that you could refinance the current loan balance with a new loan having a 5.75% interest rate and 20 year amortization period. You intend to own the property for 5 more years and are considering refinancing. a) Calculate the payments on the original loan b) Calculate the current loan balance of the original loan c) Calculate the loan balance of the original loan 5 years from now. d) Using the current, lower interest rate, calculate the present value of the remaining original loan payments (i.e. the PV of 60 monthly loan payments and the repayment of the loan balance after 5 years) e) Assume you refinance, taking out a new loan at the lower rate with an initial balance equal to the current balance of the original loan (i.e. the new loan amount is your answer from part b). Calculate the payments on this new loan. f) Calculate the loan balance of the new loan 5 years from now.

Answers

Answer:

a) Calculate the payments on the original loan

monthly payment = principal / annuity factor

principal = $500,000

PV annuity factor, 300 periods, 0.52% = 151.59095

monthly payment = $500,000 / 151.59095 = $3,298.349934 ≈ $3,298.35

b) Calculate the current loan balance of the original loan

I prepared an amortization schedule on an excel spreadsheet. The balance after the 120th payment is $384,681.

c) Calculate the loan balance of the original loan 5 years from now.

the balance after the 180th payment = $293,760

d) Using the current, lower interest rate, calculate the present value of the remaining original loan payments

we can use the present value of an ordinary annuity formula to determine the present value of the remaining 60 payments (of $3,298.35 each) and the present value of $293,760.

PV of loan payments = $3,298.35 x 52.0404 (PV annuity factor, 0.479%, 60 periods) = $171,647.45

PV of principal = $293,760 / (1 + 5.75%)⁵ = $222,121.59

total = $393,769.04

e) Assume you refinance, taking out a new loan at the lower rate with an initial balance equal to the current balance of the original loan (i.e. the new loan amount is your answer from part b). Calculate the payments on this new loan.

monthly payment = principal / annuity factor

principal = $384,681PV annuity factor, 240 periods, 0.479% = 142.43323

monthly payment = $384,681 / 142.43323 = $2,700.78

f) Calculate the loan balance of the new loan 5 years from now.

I prepared a second amortization schedule (modified amortization schedule). The principal balance after the 60th payment is $325,235

You charge $116.00 on average for each service.You are considering moving the salon to an upscale neighborhood where the rent and utilities will increase to $11,944.00, salaries to $6,992.00 and insurance to $2,427.00 per month. Cost of supplies will increase to $8.00 per service. However you can now charge $151.00 per service. At what point will you be indifferent between your current location and the new loaction

Answers

Answer:

The indifference point is 290 services.

Explanation:

Current location:

Rent and utilities= $5,093

Salies= $5,924

Insurance= $1,370

Total fixed cost= $12,387

Contribution margin per unit= 116 - 4= $112

New location:

Rent and utilities= $11,944

Salies= $6,992

Insurance= $2,427

Total fixed costs= $21,363

Contribution margin per unit= 151 - 8= $143

First, we need to structure the total income formula (y):

Current location:

y= 112x - 12,387

New location:

y= 143x - 21,363

x= number of services

Now, we equal both formulas and isolate x:

112x - 12,387 = 143x - 21,363

31x =8,976

x=  289.55 = 290 services

The indifference point is 290 services.

Prove:

y= 112*290 - 12,387= $20,093

y= 143*290 - 21,363= $20,107

The difference is due to round up.

The Swatch Group and Cultural Uniqueness

Summary

This case explores the Swatch Group and the influence of Swatch on culture. Founded in 1983 by Nicolas Hayek, Swatch is now the world’s biggest watch maker. The company not only produces finished watches, it also produces jewelry, watch movements, and watch components. Indeed, Swatch Group supplies nearly everything used in the production of its 18 individual brands that includes icons like Omega and Harry Winston as well as more mainstream options like Tissot and Longines.

In addition to its own line of products, Swatch Group sells watch components to third-party watchmakers and produces parts used for sport event timing. Swatch employs about 37,000 people across 37 global subsidiaries. With some 40 percent of the company still under the control of the Hayek family, Swatch focuses on diversity and culture.

The Swatch Revolution combines Swiss excellence in watchmaking with quirky affordable plastic components. Swatch promotes its watches as a means of speaking without words. Wearers of Swatch watches are telling more than just time, they are telling the world something about themselves. Swatch even suggests that wearers share their individuality and preferences on Instagram by tagging #MySwatch.

Discussion Questions

1. With the Hayek family controlling nearly 40 percent of The Swatch Group, how do you think the family’s influence impacts the corporate culture in the company? What about the company’s international culture being impacted by the Hayek family?

2. Many of the Swatch brands have become cultural icons among a strong core following of customers in the global marketplace. Some even talk about the "Swatch Revolution" that began when Nicolas Hayek founded the company. Why do you think Swatch has such a strong cultural following?

3. As mentioned, Swatch wants you to create your own unique way of accessorizing through its Swatch watch. Is a watch a way to show who a person is culturally? Does a watch get embedded into a person’s culture? Can a watch create a cultural image?

Answers

Answer:

The question definition is outlined underneath in the overview section.

Explanation:

(1)

Including respect to something like the Hayek family, which also owns approximately or more nearly 40 percent of the Swatch Community, I conclude that by acknowledging their construction companies as family members, the relatives seem to have an impact on the concept of the corporate community. The workers should operate collectively, independently of their employment, as a team. For the Swatch Group, this creates a powerful organizational environment which put suitable implemented in a variety of fields.Family beliefs that influence this entire corporation will affect the international culture of the firm. The unlikelihood's in national culture, however, affect the lack of common ideals and significance. Inside the digital economy, this limits communication, trust, and knowledgeable contributors.

(2)

The major cultural monitoring can be explained by the mixture of technology as well as creativity that has rooted the Swatch Culture through its product. And perhaps even developments in branding and ads, the Swatch concept relies on reference implementation, automation, and assembly technology. It began with a high-tech as well as inexpensive watch that those of us who could accommodate.Access to affordable was indeed the primary factor for the market success of the Swatch Company. However, the Swatch Organization is actively innovating and marketing the commodity to technical data scientists. In every consumer segment, the Swatch Community has evolved from inexpensive to pricey watches.

(3)

In symbolizing to person, a monitor plays an important part. It displays different things, such as from an amount of available data, a sign of money, a fashion accessory, or maybe even a clear indication of upcoming appointments. When individuals see that they are late, the concept of time can mean the commercial term "time is money," which does not matter where they would be close to the election. I don't understand why, however according to oneself, I'm open to the culture of a world when certain individuals sports smart watches. A community is a composite of a single group's principles, behaviors, vocabulary, and beliefs. All forms, such as political ideologies, traditions, language as well as standards, may represent representations of culture.As something of a national signifier for many conservative communities, Hamza seems to be the hand of the creator. A cultural icon shouldn't be seen as an icon and should therefore be scattered away from physically artificial norms. It has now become a symbol of money, strength, elevated status as well as fashionable that, however, according to me, it's not like every trait should have an essential cultural image.

The answers are provided from the information given in the summary. Kindly follow the given answers below.

(1)

By identifying their construction companies as family members, the relatives appear to have an impact on the concept of the corporate community, especially when it comes to the Hayek family, which owns about or almost 40% of the Swatch Community. Workers should work together as a team, regardless of their employment status. This generates a robust organizational framework for the Swatch Group, which may be used in a variety of disciplines.

The worldwide culture of the company will be influenced by family ideas that influence the entire enterprise. National culture's improbabilities, on the other hand, have an impact on the lack of common ideals and significance. This hinders communication, trust, and informed contributors inside the digital economy.

(2)

The combination of technology and creativity that has planted the Swatch Culture through its product explains the major cultural monitoring.

The Swatch concept is based on reference implementation, automation, and assembly technologies, as well as possible improvements in branding and advertising. It all started with a high-tech but low-cost watch that those of us who could afford it could afford.

The Swatch Company's commercial success was largely due to its ability to provide cheap watches. The Swatch Group, on the other hand, is constantly inventing and marketing the commodity to technical data scientists. The Swatch Community has evolved from low-cost to high-end watches in every market group.

(3)

A monitor plays an important role in symbolizing a person. It can show a variety of things, like the amount of data accessible, a symbol of money, a fashion accessory, or even a clear signal of forthcoming meetings. When people realize they are late, the concept of time might mean the commercial phrase "time is money," regardless of where they are in relation to the election.

The price elasticity of demand for gizmos is known to be ​(disregarding the negative ​sign). If sellers of gizmos increase their​ prices, total revenue from gizmo sales will

Answers

Answer:

C. rise.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as some data are missing. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

The price elasticity of demand for gizmos is known to be 0.2 (disregarding the negative sign). If sellers of gizmos increase their prices, total revenue from gizmo sales will:

A. fall.

B. stay the same.

C. rise.

D. There is not enough information to determine the change in revenue.

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

The price elasticity of demand can be described as the degree of responsivess of quantity demanded of a commodity to a change in the price of that commodity.

The price elasticity of demand is calculated as the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price.

The three major categories of price elasticity of demand and their effect on revenue are as follows:

a. Elastic: Price elasticity of demand is said to be elastic when its absolute value is greater than one (i.e. Ep > 1). This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded is greater than the percentage in price. That is, the quantity demanded is more responsive to any change in price. As there is negative relationship between price and quantity demanded for a normal good, an increase in price will make the percentage fall in the quantity demanded to be higher than the percentage increase in price. This will therefore result in a fall in total revenue.

b. Unitary: Price elasticity of demand is said to be unitary when its absolute value is equal to one (i.e. Ep = 1). This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded is equal the percentage in price. That is, the quantity demanded is equally responsive to any change in price. As there is negative relationship between price and quantity demanded for a normal good, an increase in price will make the percentage fall in the quantity demanded to be equal to the percentage increase in price. This will make the total revenue to remain the same.

c. Inelastic: Price elasticity of demand is said to be inelastic when its absolute value is less than one (i.e. Ep < 1). This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded is less than the percentage in price. That is, the quantity demanded is less responsive to any change in price. As there is negative relationship between price and quantity demanded for a normal good, an increase in price will make the percentage fall in the quantity demanded to be less than the percentage increase in price. This will therefore result in a rise in total revenue.

Based on the explanation above, the price elasticity of demand for gizmos falls into category c. This implies that it is inelastic because its absolute value of 0.2 is less than 1. Therefore, the correct option is C. rise. That is, total revenue from gizmo sales will rise If sellers of gizmos increase their prices.

Indirect labor                                                    $150,000

Property taxes on factory                                 $90,000

Depreciation on factory building                    $125,000

Indirect material used                                       $45,000

Depreciation on factory equipment                $60,000

Insurance on factory and equipment              $40,000

Utilities for factory                                             $70,000

Actual Overheads Incurred                            $580,000

Now,

Where Applied Overheads is $577,500 and Actual Overheads is $580,000, we have an underapplied situation of $2,500 ($580,000 - $577,500).

This under-applied amount is closed off to the cost of goods sold.

1. Computation of the cost of goods manufactured for 20x2

Direct Materials = Beginning Raw-material Inventory + Purchases of raw material -  Closing Raw-material inventory - Indirect material used

Direct Materials = $89,000 + $731,000 - $59,000 - $45,000

Direct Materials = $716,000

Particulars                                                               Amount

Beginning Work In Process Inventory                  $0

Add: Direct Materials                                             $716,000

Add: Direct Labor                                                   $474,000

Add: Applied manufacturing overhead                $577,500

Less: Ending Work In Process Inventory              ($40,000)

Cost of goods manufactured                                $1,727,500

2 .Computation of the cost of goods sold for 20x2

Actual Overheads Incurred = Indirect labor + Property taxes on factory + Depreciation on factory building + Indirect material used + Depreciation on factory equipment + Insurance on factory and equipment + Utilities for factory

Actual Overheads Incurred = $150,000  + $90,000  + $125,000 + $45,000  + $60,000 + $40,000 + $70,000

Actual Overheads Incurred = $580,000

Here, since the Applied Overheads is $577,500 and the Actual Overheads is $580,000, then, we have an under-applied value of $2,500 ($580,000 - $577,500)

Particulars                                                               Amount

Beginning Finished goods inventory                    $35,000

Add: Cost of goods manufactured                        $1,727,500

Less: Ending Finished goods inventory               ($40,000)  

Cost of Goods Sold                                                $1,722,500

Adjustment of Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of Goods Sold                                                 $1,722,500

Less: Under-applied Overheads                             ($2,500)

Adjusted Cost of Goods Sold                                 $1,720,000

3. Computation of the income statement for 20x2.

Particulars                                                             Amount

Sales revenue                                                    $2,105,000

Less: Cost of Goods Sold                                 ($1,720,000

Gross Profit                                                        $385,000

Less: Selling and administrative expenses      ($269,000)

Net Profit Before tax                                          $116,000

You can purchase a tract of land for $75,000 that you believe you can develop and sell as a residential development. Your development costs are $60,000 to be incurred immediately. You expect to sell all the lots in years 3-5 at a net income of $70,000, $85,000, and $68,000 respectively. Your required rate of return is 12 percent. Do you purchase the tract of land? HTML EditorKeyboard Shortcuts

Answers

Answer:

The tract of land should be purchased

Explanation:

To determine if the land should be bought, compare the present value of the income that would be derived from selling the lots to the cost of the land

Total cost of the land = $75,000 + $60,000 = $135,000

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = 0

Cash flow in year 3 =  $70,000

Cash flow in year 4 =  $85,000

Cash flow in year 5 =  $68,000

I = 12%

Present value = $142,428.68

The tract of land should be purchased because the present value of the cash flows is greater than the cost of the land

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Toot!, which connects tutors with students who are looking for tutoring services, and TiX, which can be used to buy, sell, or exchange event tickets. For the following year, SMI expects the following results. Toot! TiX Total Users 8,900 16,600 25,500 Revenues $ 1,450,000 $ 1,200,000 $ 2,650,000 Engineering hours 7,375 5,375 12,750 Engineering cost $ 402,500 $ 521,875 $ 924,375 Administrative costs $ 739,500 Required: a. Compute the predetermined overhead rate used to apply administrative costs to the two services assuming SMI uses the number of users to allocate administrative costs. b. Based on the rates computed in requirement (a), what is the profit for each service?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Predetermined overhead rate will be:

= Administrative costs/Number of users

= 739,500/25,500

= $29 per user

Administrative costs applied to Toot will be:

= Number of users x Predetermined overhead rate

= 8900 x 29

= $258100

Administrative costs applied to Tix will be:

= Number of users x Predetermined overhead rate

= 16600 x 29

= $481400

b. For Toot

Revenue: $1,450,000

Less: Engineering cost: $402,500

Less: Administrative cost: $258,100

Profit = $789400

For Tix:

Revenue: $1,200,000

Less: Engineering cost: $521,875

Less: Administrative cost: $481,400

Profit = $196725

Answer:

3.

DR Selling and Administrative Salaries               $240,000

      Manufacturing Overhead                                $150,000

      Work in Process                                                $600,000

CR Wages Payable                                                                      $990,000

4.

Manufacturing Overhead Applied

= 41,000 hours * 16.25

= $666,250

5. Total Manufacturing cost to be added = Raw Materials + Direct Labor + Manufacturing Overhead

= 480,000 + 600,000 + 666,250

= $1,746,250

6.

DR Finished Goods                                             $1,680,000

CR Work in Process                                                                $1,680,000

7.

Ending Balance = Beginning balance + Raw materials + Direct labor + Manufacturing Overhead - Cost transferred to Finished goods

= 18,000 + 480,000 + 666,250 + 84,250 - 1,680,000

= $84,250

9. Predetermined overhead cost - Actual cost = 666,250 - 650,000 = $16,250.

Overapplied as predetermined cost was more than Actual.

12. Finished goods = Beginning balance + Cost transferred from WIP - Cost of goods sold

= 35,000 + 1,680,000 - 1,690,000

= $25,000

13.

Adjusted Cost of Goods sold = Cost of goods sold - Overapplied

= 1,690,000 - 16,250

= $1,673,750

14. Gross Margin = Sales - Adjusted COGS

= 2,800,000 - 1,673,750

= $1,126,350

15. Net Operating Income

= Gross Margin - Selling and Administrative salaries - Selling and Administrative expenses

= 1,126,350 - 240,000 - 367,000

= $519,250

Answers

Answer:

$1603.97

Explanation:

We are to find the present value of the annuity

the formula for finding he present value of an annuity is :

A = FV / annuity factor

annuity factor = [(1 + r)^n - 1 ] / r

FV = Future value = $5340

r = interest rate = 10.6%

n = number of years = 3

(1.106)^3 - 1 / 0.106 = 3.329236

a = $5,340 /  3.329236 = $1603.97

Explanation:

PS: The joint probability distribution of the returns of the two assets is given in the attached picture. Also, both stocks are not independent.

So, let us delve straight into the solution to this particular question or problem. From the question, we are given two assets that is, Microsoft (M) stock and Starbucks (S) stock.

Thus, the expected return on Microsoft stock can be determined and the expected return on Starbucks stock can also be determined.

[1]. The expected return on Microsoft stock  = - 10 × 0.15 + 30 × 0.20 + 10 × 0.35 + 20 ×0.30 = 14%.

Using excel, Standard deviation on Microsoft stock = 12.4[ from [tex]\sqrt{(100 * 0.35 + 100 * 0.15 + 900 * 0.20 + 400 * 0.30}[/tex] - √[14]² ]

[2]. The expected return on starbucks stock= 20 × 0.15 + 20 × 0.10 + 20 × 0.2 = 12%.

Using excel, Standard deviation on Starbucks stock = √( 400 × 0.15 + 400 × 0.20 + 400 × 0.15 + 400 × 0.10) - √(12)²

= 9.8

Answers

Answer:

$2,145

Explanation:

For the computation of Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT) first, we need to compute the tax rate which is shown below:-

Tax rate = Tax expense ÷ Earnings before tax

= 700 ÷ 2,000

= 35%

Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT) = EBIT × (1 - tax rate)

= 3,300 × (1 - 35%)

= $2,145

Therefore for computing the Net Operating Profit After Taxes (NOPAT) we simply applied the above formula.

Answers

Answer:

$25.5090,000 units140,000 units

Explanation:

1. Current contribution margin ratio

= (Selling price - Variable cost)/ Selling price

= (25 - 19.8) / 25

= 0.208

New Direct labor = 5.0 * ( 1 + 8%)

= $5.40

New variable cost = 19.8 + 0.4 = $20.20

To maintain 0.208

0.208 = (Selling price - 20.20) / Selling price

0.208 * Price = Price - 20.20

0.208Price - Price = -20.20

-0.792Price = -20.20

Price = -20.20/-0.792

Price = $25.50

2. Breakeven = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin

Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= 25 - 19.8

= $5.20

= 468,000/5.2

= 90,000 units

3. To earn $260,000;

= (Fixed Cost + 260,000) / Contribution margin

Mojo Mining has a bond outstanding that sells for $640 and matures in 18 years. The bond pays semiannual coupons and has a coupon rate of 5.54%. The par value is $1,000. If the company's tax rate is 35%, what is the aftertax cost of debt

Answers

Answer:

After tax cost of debt = 6.40%

Explanation:

Coupon rate = 5.54%

Years of maturity = 18

NPER = Years of maturity * 2 = 18 * 2 = 36

PMT = (Face value * Coupon rate) / 2 = (1,000 * 5.54%) / 2 = 27.7

Face value = $1,000

Price (PV) = $640

Rate (36, 27.2, -640, 1000) Using excel = 0.049246 = 4.92%

YTM = Rate * 2 = 4.92% * 2 = 0.098492 = 9.85%

Pre-tax csot of debt = 9.85%

After tax cost of debt = 9.85%* (1 - 0.35)

After tax cost of debt = 9.85% * 0.65

After tax cost of debt = 0.098492 * 0.65

After tax cost of debt = 0.0640198

After tax cost of debt = 6.40%
