Skyline Florists uses an activity-based costing system to compute the cost of making floral bouquets and delivering the bouquets to its commercial customers. Company personnel who earn $180,000 typically perform both tasks; other firm-wide overhead is expected to total $70,000. These costs are allocated as follows:
Bouquet Production Delivery Other
Wages and salaries 60% 30% 10%
Other overhead 50% 35% 15%
Riverside anticipates making 20,000 bouquets and 4,000 deliveries in the upcoming year. The cost of wages and salaries and other overhead that would be charged to each bouquet made is closest to:
a. $12.50.
b. $7.15.
c. some other amount.
d. $8.75.
e. $13.75.
Answer:
b. $7.15
Explanation:
Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = [($180,000*60%) + ($70,000*50%)] / 20,000
Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = ($108,000 + $35,000) / 20,000
Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = $143,000 / 20,000
Cost of wages & salaries per bouquet = $7.15
So, the cost of wages and salaries and other overhead that would be charged to each bouquet made will be $7.15.
Windhoek Mines, Ltd., of Namibia, is contemplating the purchase of equipment to exploit a mineral deposit on land to which the company has mineral rights. An engineering and cost analysis has been made, and it is expected that the following cash flows would be associated with opening and operating a mine in the area: Cost of new equipment and timbers $ 370,000 Working capital required $ 115,000 Annual net cash receipts $ 130,000 * Cost to construct new roads in year three $ 43,000 Salvage value of equipment in four years $ 68,000 *Receipts from sales of ore, less out-of-pocket costs for salaries, utilities, insurance, and so forth. The mineral deposit would be exhausted after four years of mining. At that point, the working capital would be released for reinvestment elsewhere. The company’s required rate of return is 18%. Click here to view Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables. Required: a. What is the net present value of the proposed mining project? b.

Which of the following statements is INCORRECT. All else equal, 1. If a bond's yield-to-maturity (YTM, i.e., market interest rate) is greater than its coupon rate, then the bond is trading at a premium. 2. Duration measures the sensitivity of a bond's price to changes in interest rate. 3. If a bond's market value is equal to its par amount, then its YTM will be equal to its coupon rate. 4. The estimated market price of a bond is the sum of its future discounted cash flows.
Answer:
1
Explanation:
When the yield to maturity is greater than the coupon rate, the bond is selling at a discount.
When the yield to maturity is less than the coupon rate, the bond is selling at a premium.
When the yield to maturity is equal to the coupon rate, the bond is selling at par.
Stock Valuation Suppose you know that a company's stock currently sells for $64 per share and the required return on the stock is 13 percent. You also know that the total return on the stock is evenly divided between a capital gains yield and a dividend yield. If it's the company's policy to always maintain a constant growth rate in its dividends, what is the current dividend per share?
Answer:
$3.85
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the current dividend per share
First step is to calculate the Dividend yield using this formula
Dividend yield=Dividend for next period/Current price
Let plug in the formula
Dividend yield=(13%/2)
Dividend yield=6.5%
Second step is to calculate the Dividend for next period
Dividend for next period=($63*6.5%)
Dividend for next period=$4.095
Now let determine the Current dividend using this formula
Current dividend=Dividend for next period*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
Let plug in the formula
Current dividend=$4.095/1+.065
Current dividend=$4.095/1.065
Current dividend=$3.85(Approx).
Therefore the current dividend per share is $3.85

g Suppose total output (real GDP) is $1,000 and labor productivity is $10. We can conclude that the number of worker hours must be
Answer:
100
Explanation:
Hours worked = Real GDP / labour productivity
1000 / 10 = 100
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
Lakeview Engine, Inc., produces engines for the watercraft industry. An outside manufacturer has offered to supply several component parts used in the engine assemblies, which are currently being produced by Lakeview. The supplier will charge Lakeview $325 per engine for the set of parts. Lakeview’s current costs for those part sets are direct materials, $145; direct labor, $85; and manufacturing overhead applied at 100% of direct labor. Variable manufacturing overhead is considered to be 20% of the total, and fixed overhead will not change if the part sets are acquired from the outside supplier.
What would be the net cost advantage or disadvantage if Lakeview decided to purchase the parts?
Answer:
Lakeview Engine, Inc.
The net cost disadvantage if Lakeview decided to purchase the parts from the supplier per part is:
= $78
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Price by outside supplier per engine = $325
Current costs of manufacturing the engine:
Direct materials per unit = $145
Direct labor per unit = $85
Variable manufacturing overhead (20%) = $17
Fixed manufacturing overhead (80%) = $68
Total variable manufacturing cost per unit = $247
Incremental Analysis:
Make Buy Incremental
Production costs:
Variable manufacturing costs per unit:
Direct materials per unit $145
Direct labor per unit $85
Variable manufacturing per unit $17
Total variable manufacturing costs $247 $325 $78
b) Therefore, it costs more to Lakeview to buy the part from the outside supplier than it does when it makes it internally. Lakeview should continue making the parts.
Patty took a cash advance of $1,500. Her new credit card charges an Annual Percentage Rate of 21%. The transaction fee for the cash advance is 3% of the amount of the advance, with a minimum fee of $35. This fee is added to the total cash advance, and accrues interest.
Hint: calculate 3% of 1,500. Add that 3% to the original cash advance of 1,500. This becomes your charged amount.
If Patty makes monthly payments of $65:
What is the total amount Patty will end up paying for the cash advance?

Managers lead in a wide variety of situations and organizations and have various kinds of subordinates performing diverse tasks in a multiplicity of environmental contexts. Given the wide variety of situations in which leadership occurs, what makes a manager an effective leader in one situation (such as certain traits or behaviors) is not necessarily what that manager needs to be equally effective in a different situation. Contingency models of leadership take into account the situation or context within which leadership occurs. According to contingency models, whether or not a manager is an effective leader is the result of the interplay between what the manager is like, what he or she does, and the situation in which leadership takes place.

A dozen eggs cost $0.96 in December 2000 and $1.82 in December 2017. The average wage for workers in private industries was $14.28 per hour in December 2000 and $22.31 in December 2017. By what percentage did the price of a dozen eggs rise
Answer:
the percentage in which the price of the dozen eggs rise is 89.58% or 90%
Explanation:
The computation of the percentage in which the price of the dozen eggs rise is shown below;
Percentage Change in Dozens egg price is
= (Price in 2017 - Price in 2000) ÷ Price in 2000 × 100
= ($1.82 - $0.96) ÷ $0.96 × 100
= 89.58% or 90%
Hence, the percentage in which the price of the dozen eggs rise is 89.58% or 90%
If the amount of beachfront land in Malibu supplied to the market remains the same even when the price of beachfront land in Malibu increases, the:_________.
a. demand for beachfront land in malibu must be perfectly inelastic,
b. supply of beachfront land in Malibu must be perfectly elastic.
c. demand for beachfront land in Malibu must be perfectly elastic.
d. supply of beachfront land in Malibu must be perfectly inelastic.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.
Supply is perfectly inelastic if a small change in price has no effect on quantity supplied
A short forward contract that was negotiated some time ago will expire in 12-month and has a delivery price of $49.25. The current forward price for the 12-month forward contract is $46.00. The 12-month risk-free interest rate (with continuous compounding) is 6.65%. What is the value of the short forward contract? Answer with two decimal digits accuracy and the correct sign. Example: -11.92
Answer:
$3.04
Explanation:
F = (K - F0)*e^(-r*T) Where f = current value of forward contract, F0 = forward price agreed upon today, K = delivery price for a contract negotiated, r = risk-free interest rate applicable to the life of forward contract, T = delivery date
F = ($49.25-$46.00)*e^(-0.0665*12/12)
F = $3.25*e^(-0.0665)
F = $3.25*0.935662916
F = $3.040904477
F = $3.04
So, the value of the short forward contract is $3.04.

C Corporation is investigating automating a process by purchasing a machine for $803,700 that would have a 9 year useful life and no salvage value. By automating the process, the company would save $138,500 per year in cash operating costs. The new machine would replace some old equipment that would be sold for scrap now, yielding $22,300. The annual depreciation on the new machine would be $89,300. The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to (Ignore income taxes.):
Answer:
6.30%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to
Using this formula
Simple rate of return= Annual net profit / net investment
Let plug in the formula
Simple rate of return= (138,500-89,300)/(803,700-22,300)
Simple rate of return= 49,200/781,400
Simple rate of return= 6.30%
Therefore The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to 6.30%
Consider a firm that has fixed costs of $300. The firm also faces a marginal cost of $600 for producing the first unit of output, $200 for producing the second unit, and $100 for producing the third unit. What is the average total cost of producing three units of output?
Answer: $400 per unit
Explanation:
The total cost of producing all three units is:
= Fixed cost + marginal costs
= 300 + 600 + 200 + 100
= $1,200
The average total cost is:
= 1,200 / Number of units
= 1,200 / 3
= $400 per unit

You need to buy corn for producing ethanol. You want to purchase 10,000 bushels one year from now, 15,000 bushels two years from now, and 20,000 bushels three years from now. The current forward prices, per bushel, are $3.89, $4.11, and $4.16 for one, two, and three years respectively. You want to enter into a commodity swap to lock in these prices. Which of the following sequences of payments at times one, two, and three will NOT be acceptable to you and to the corn supplier?
a. $38,900; $61,650; $83,200
b. $39,083; $61,650; $82,039
c. $40,777; $61,166; $81,554
d. $41,892; $62,340; $78,997
e. $60,184; $60,184; $60,184 73.2
Answer:
e. $60,184; $60,184; $60,184
Explanation:
Corn supplier will have yields of 6 in year 1 and 6.5 in year 2, if it will purchase bushels now he will have to pay $39,083 now or $38,900 2 years later. The corn supplier will not accept the price below this and we will not pay price above this. The Medicare price should be determined and set.

It is necessary for a firm to keep track and quality of every circuit should be checked.
The following data are available for product no. CK74, manufactured and sold by Ruby Corporation:
Maximum capacity with present facilities 11,000 units
Total fixed cost (per period) $ 851,400
Variable cost per unit $ 120.00
Sales price per unit $ 186.00
Required:
The number of units of CK74 that Ruby must sell to break- even is:________.
a. 12,900.
b. 4,577.
c. 7,095.
d. 6,050.
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 12,900
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total fixed cost (per period) $ 851,400
Variable cost per unit $ 120.00
Sales price per unit $ 186.00
To calculate the break-even point, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 851,400 / (186 - 120)
Break-even point in units= 12,900
Answer: 12900
Explanation:
From the information given, we'll first calculate the contribution per unit which will be:
= Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit
= $186 - $120
= $ 66
Then, the break even sales in units will be: = Fixed cost/Contribution per unit
= 851,400 / 66
= 12,900
Therefore, the breakeven is 12900
From 1990 to 2000, calculate the percentage change in Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to one decimal place. If you are entering any negative numbers be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of those numbers. a. Real GDP. % b. Real consumption. % c. Real government spending
Answer:
Note The full question is attached as picture below
1. Real consumption % change = ((Consumption in 2009 / Consumption in 2007) - 1) * 100
Real consumption % change = ((9847 / 10042) - 1) * 100
Real consumption change % = (0.981 - 1) * 100
Real consumption change% = -1.9%
2. Real investment % = ((Investment in 2009 / 2007) - 1) * 100
Real investment % = ((1898 / 2644) - 1) * 100
Real investment % = (0.718 - 1) * 100
Real investment % = -28.2%
3. Government spending % = ((Government spending 2009 / 2007) - 1)*100
Government spending % = ((3089 / 2914) - 1)*100
Government spending % = (1.06 - 1) * 100
Government spending % = 6%

List at least four factors a project manager should consider when identifying individuals to work on a project. Why is each important
Answer:
The four elements to consider when identifying individuals to be part of a project team:
ability to communicate effectivelySelf Assuredness, experience, and ability, Organizational agilityEmotional IntelligenceExplanation:
1. Communication is essential because in a project if there is a miscommunication between one person, group, or team and another, that could prove fatal to the goal of the project.
Communication is verbal and non-verbal and (in a project and as with most organizations) must happen across both sides of the spectrum horizontally and vertically.
For example, when expectations are not clarified or there are assumptions about what one person or team said or expects, this could lead to project disruption. When too much is also divulged, a project can go belly-up.
2. Experience and ability are key but they are not enough. Each team member must be confident in what they believe is right. Sometimes, senior members of a team may want a course of action (that is detrimental) to be executed. A junior team member who is not self-assured may think, "it's coming from above, what can one do?" this type of thinking can be very costly.
A self-assured team player would stand for what is right and in the best interest of the team and the project even at the risk of being fired.
3. Organisational Agility
It is impossible to keep a messy itenary and achieve project success.
The ability to know exactly what needs to be done in succession is an invaluable trait of project team members. This prevents waste of time and resources.
4. Emotional Intelligence
Successful team players are also successful leaders. The most cohesive teams are teams that comprise of highly emotionally intelligent people. One of the benefits of emotional intelligence is that it helps the individual to know how to regulate their own behaviors as well as respond to those of others. It is also critical to motivating others to get the job done.
