Loco Pony Adventures rents clowns and ponies for children’s birthday parties. If the annual total cost of furnishing entertainment is given by TC = 0.5 Q 2 + 25 Q + 1,000, the average variable cost of catering to 30 birthday parties is:
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that the variable cost is the cost that changed with the production
So the variable cost arise from TC should be
VC=0.5Q^2+25Q

Suppose a basketball player has made 294 out of 359 free throws. If the player makes the next 3 free throws, I will pay you $20. Otherwise you pay me $26. Step 1 of 2 : Find the expected value of the proposition. Round your answer to two decimal places. Losses must be expressed as negative values.
Answer: -$0.74
Explanation:
Expected value of the proposition is:
= (Probability that player makes next 3 free throws * 20) - (Probability that player does not make the next 3 free throws * 26)
Probability that player does not make the next 3 free throws = 294/359 * 294/359 * 294/359
= 0.549235557
Expected value of proposition:
= (0.549235557 * 20) - ( (1 - 0.549235557) * 26)
= 10.98471114 - 11.719875518
= -$0.74

As discussed in the lecture video, Crocs’ plastic molding and sandal design capabilities have provided the firm with only a temporary competitive advantage, as incumbent firms began selling sandals that were very similar to the Crocs’ clogs. Crocs lost its competitive advantage primarily because of ___________
Answer: c. competitor imitation
Explanation:
When a company makes a good product that people like and therefore brings in profit, other companies will copy that product if it is not protected by law so that they too can make profit as well.
This is what happened to the Crocs' clogs. Other companies imitated them and so Crocs lost their competitive advantage. This led to prices falling for such footwear as the supply increased. It is for this reason that companies try to get patents when they make a product.
Risk is best thought of as the potential for variability in the investment’s outcomes. This means that if an investment has the potential to provide only one possible outcome or return, then it is , while if there is more than one possible return or result, then the asset should be considered . This is why securities sold by the U.S. Treasury have historically been considered to be the securities in the world; because except in the event of the failure of the U.S. government, any investor holding a Treasury security would receive the security’s face value upon its maturity.
Answer:
safe or risk free, risky, safest
Explanation:
In investment market, risk is defined as the potential for the variability in the outcomes of the investment. Thus it is meant that outcome or return of making an investment is safe and risk free if there is only one return or outcome. But if there are more than one possible return from the investment, then that investment is considered as risky. For this reason the securities sold by the United States' Treasury is considered to be the safest securities in the world as the investor will receive the face value of the security upon its maturity from the government.

The group of managers that Bill discovers is an example of a formal group.
During their visit to a large manufacturing business, Bill discovers a formal group. It is a group of managers who have been placed together to study and recommend a course of action on a flextime schedule for employees.
When we are referring to an organization, a formal group can be understood as a workgroup that is formed by design, depending on a hierarchical composition. The members of this group have specific tasks according to the work they perform in the company.
Usually, these groups are formed based on the experience of their members because they want to accomplish goals in a more effective way and to improve the decision-making process of difficult issues.
The ________ is the difference between merchandise imports and exports and a measure of a country's international trade in goods.
Answer:
balance of trade
Explanation:
Trade can be defined as a process which typically involves the buying and selling of goods and services between a producer and the customers (consumers) at a specific period of time.
Basically, trade can be categorized into two (2) main groups and these are;
I. Import: this involves bringing in goods from a foreign country to sell in a different (domestic) country.
II. Export: it involves the sales of goods produced in a domestic country to a foreign country.
In Economics, a balance of trade is a measure of the difference between merchandise imports and exports, as well as a country's international trade in goods. Thus, it's a measure of the difference between the monetary value of the import and export of goods of a country over a specific period of time.

Gross profit 1,775,000
Operating expenses 840,000
Net income $935,000
Cost of goods sold was 70% variable and 30% fixed; operating expenses were 80% variable and 20% fixed. In September, Moonbeam receives a special order for 21,600 toasters at $8.12 each from Luna Company of Ciudad Juarez. Acceptance of the order would result in an additional $3,100 of shipping costs but no increase in fixed costs.

What is the weighted average cost of capital if a business has a cost of equity of 11%, a yield on debt of 6%, a tax rate of 30%, 100 million market value of debt, and 250 million market value of equity
Answer:
9.028 %
Explanation:
weighted average cost of capital = cost of equity x weight of equity + cost of debt x weight of debt
where,
cost of equity = 11 %
cost of debt (consider after tax) = 6% x (1 - 0.30) = 4.20 %
weight of equity = 250 million ÷ 350 million = 0.71
weight of debt = 100 million ÷ 350 million = 0.29
therefore,
weighted average cost of capital = 11 % x 0.71 + 4.20 % x 0.29
= 9.028 %
Find the intrinsic value of XYZ Inc. The DPS at the end of year 1 is $2.00; at the end of year 2 is $2.40; at the end of year 3 is $2.70. After the third year, the DPS grows at a constant rate of 5%. The required rate of return is 12%.
Answer: 34.33
Explanation:
Firstly, we'll calculate the terminal value
which willl be:
= 2.70 × (1+5%)/(12% - 5%)
= 2.70 x 1.05/(0.12 - 0.05)
= 40.5
Then, the intrinsic value will be:
= 2/1.12 + 2.4/1.12² + (2.7 + 40.5)/1.12³
= 34.33
Therefore, the the intrinsic value of XYZ Inc is 34.33

At December 31, 2020, Suffolk Corporation had an estimated warranty liability of $105,000 for accounting purposes and $0 for tax purposes. (The warranty costs are not deductible until paid.) The effective tax rate is 20%. Compute the amount Suffolk should report as a deferred tax asset at December 31, 2020.
Answer:
Deferred tax asset = $21000
Explanation:
Given the warranty liability = $105000
Effective tax rate = 20%
The deferred tax asset can be calculated by calculating the effective tax from the warranty liability. Therefore, just multiply the effective tax rate to the warranty liability.
Deferred tax asset = Effective tax rate x Warranty liability
Deferred tax asset = 20% x $105000
Deferred tax asset = $21000
Song, Inc., uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior. The company observed that at 22,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $33.40 per hour. When activity jumped to 25,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $30.40. On the basis of this information, the fixed cost was:
Answer:
$550,000
Explanation:
The computation of the fixed cost is shown below:
But before that the variable cost per hour is
= (25,000 ×$30.40 - 22,000 × $33.40) ÷ (25,000 - 22,000)
= ($760,000 - $734,800) ÷ (3,000)
= $8.4
Now the fixed cost is
= $760,000 - (25,000 × $8.4)
= $550,000

Kaskin, Inc., stock has a beta of 1.2 and Quinn, Inc., stock has a beta of .6. Which of the following statements is most accurate?
a. The expected rate of return will be higher for the stock of Kaskin, Inc., than that of Quinn, Inc.
b. The stock of Kaskin, Inc., has more total risk than Quinn, Inc.
c. The stock of Quinn, Inc., has more systematic risk than that of Kaskin, Inc.
Answer: a. The expected rate of return will be higher for the stock of Kaskin, Inc., than that of Quinn, Inc.
Explanation:
The beta of a stock measures its systematic risk which is its risk in relation to the market. With a higher systematic risk, there would be a higher expected return to compensate for this risk.
The beta is used to calculate the expected return in the CAPM formula:
Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta * Market premium
Note how the higher the beta, the higher the expected return based on the above formula.
