Bell Corporation reports that at an activity level of 8,700 units, its total variable cost is $653,109, and its total fixed cost is $658,416.
Required: For the activity level of 8,800 units, assume this level is within the relevant range. Compute: the total variable cost, the total fixed cost, the total cost, the average variable cost per unit, the average fixed cost per unit, and the average total cost per unit.
There is not a word length requirement for this question; however, you must show your work.
Answer:
Bell Corporation
The total variable cost is = $660,616
The total fixed cost is = $658,416
The total cost is = $1,319,032
The average variable cost per unit is = $75.07
The average total cost per unit is = $149.89
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current activity level = 8,700 units
Variable cost based on the current activity level = $653,109
Unit variable cost = $75.07 ($653,109/8,700)
Fixed cost = $658,416
At activity level of 8,800 units, since 8,800 units are within the relevant range:
The total variable cost = $660,616 (8,800 * $75.07)
The total fixed cost = $658,416 (same as at 8,700 units)
The total cost = $1,319,032 ($660,616 + $658,416)
The average variable cost per unit = $75.07 ($653,109/8,700)
The average total cost per unit = $149.89 ($1,319,032/8,800)

A tremendous flood along the Mississippi River destroys thousands of factories, reducing the nation's capital stock by 5%. What happens to current employment and the real wage rate
Answer:
Both employment and the real wage rate would decrease
Explanation:
Given that the capital stock of a nation or country jas a direct impact on such country in terms of savings and investments which directly translates to additional.economic development.
Hence, in this case, when a tremendous flood along the Mississippi River destroys thousands of factories, reducing the nation's capital stock by 5%. What happens to current employment and the real wage rate is that "Both employment and the real wage rate would decrease"
This because there won't be adequate money available to create more employment. And with lease employment opportunities than the available labor, the real wage rate tends to decrease over time.
The calculation for annual depreciation using the straight-line depreciation method is:____.A. Initial cost × Estimated useful life.B. Initial cost / Estimated useful life.C. Depreciable cost × Estimated useful life. D. Depreciable cost / Estimated useful life.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
D. Depreciable cost/estimated useful life
you don’t use initial cost because you subtract the salvage value from initial value to get the depreciable costs. And you divide not multiply by the estimated useful life.
Culler Construction Company agreed with the City of Orange Key to build a road. The project was to begin on December 1. One week after the work began, a hurricane struck the site, washing away so much land that the construction would be twice as expensive. As a result, Culler refused to continue the job, unless Orange Key paid a large sum in addition to the initial contract price. A promise by Orange Key to pay more than the original price is:_______
Answer: D. Enforceable because Culler encountered unforeseen difficulties.
Explanation:
Contractual obligations can be changed if one or both parties encounter unforeseen circumstances that would significantly alter their ability to fulfil their part of the contract.
In this scenario, Culler Construction would incur a significantly higher cost to carry out their side of the contract than what was agreed. The contract can therefore be changed and this change would be enforceable by law. The higher offer by Orange Key is therefore legal and enforceable.

Maize Plastics manufactures and sells bottles per day. Fixed Costs are $30,000 and the variable costs for manufacturing 50 bottles are $10,000. Each bottle is sold for $1,000. How would the daily profit be affected if the daily volume of sales drop by 10%?
a. profits are reduced by $4,000
b. profits are reduced by $1,000
c. profits are reduced by $5,000
d. profits are reduced by $6,000
Answer:
a. profits are reduced by $4,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How would the daily profit be affected if the daily volume of sales drop by 10%
First step is to calculate the Variable cost per unit
Variable cost per unit = $10,000 / 50
Variable cost per unit = $200
Second step is to calculate the Profit for 50 bottles
Profit for 50 bottles = ($1,000 × 50) - ($30,000 + $10,000)
Profit for 50 bottles = $10,000
Third step is to calculate the Sales after 10% drop
Sales after 10% drop = 50 × (1 - 0.10)
Sales after 10% drop= 45
Fourth step is to calculate the Profit for 45 bottles
Profit for 45 bottles = ($1,000 × 45) - ($30,000 + (45 × 200))
Profit for 45 bottles= $6,000
Now let determine the Change in profit
Change in profit = $10,000 - $6,000
Change in profit= $4,000
Therefore How would the daily profit be affected if the daily volume of sales drop by 10% is that the PROFITS ARE REDUCED BY $4,000

Order of preference to allocate material 2nd 3rd 1st
Since the product C has maximize 'contribution margin per pound' it will give 1st preference, followed by the product A and B.
The allocation of the available 5000 pounds of the raw material.
A B C
Maximize units that can be sold (A) 1000 1000 1000
Materials required per unit (B) 8 5 3
Total material requirement (C) 8000 5000 3000
Available raw material in pounds 5000 pounds
(-) first allocation to product C 3000 pounds
Remaining material 2000 pounds
(-) seconds allocation to product A 2000 pounds
Remaining for the product B 0 pounds
Now calculating the total contribution on the above allocation basis.
A B C Total
Material allocated to A(pounds) 2000 0 3000 5000
Contribution per pound (B) $ 4 $2.8 $7
Total contribution margin (AxB) $8000 $0 $21000 $29,000
Therefore, the total contribution margin is $29,000.

Suppose that the total value of dividends to be paid by companies in the Narnian stock market index is $100 billion. Investors expect dividends to grow over the long term by 5% annually, and they require a 10% return. Now a collapse in the economy leads investors to revise their growth estimate down to 4%. By how much should market values change
Answer:
The correct answer is "16.67%".
Explanation:
Given:
Dividend,
= $100 billion
Rate of return,
= 10%
= 0.10
Growth rate,
= 5%
= 0.05
Now,
Market value will be:
= [tex]\frac{Dividend}{Rate \ of\ return-Growth \ rate}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{100}{0.10-0.05}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{100}{0.05}[/tex]
= [tex]2000 \ Billion[/tex] ($)
After collapse,
The market value will be:
= [tex]\frac{100}{(.10-.04)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{100}{.06}[/tex]
= [tex]1666.67[/tex] ($)
Change in market value will be:
= [tex]2000-1666.67[/tex]
= [tex]333.33 \ Billion[/tex] ($)
hence,
The percentage change in market value will be:
= [tex]\frac{333.33}{2000}[/tex]
= [tex]16.67[/tex]%

Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar.
Present Value Annuity Amount i = n =
1. ___________ $2,600 8% 5
2. 507,866 135,000 ___ 4
3. 661,241 170,000 9% ____
4. 540,000 78,557 ___ 8
5. 230,000 _____________ 10% 4
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given question:
Explanation:
For point 1:
[tex]Annuity\ Amount= \$2,600\\\\i=8\%\\\\n=5\\\\Present\ Value=?[/tex]
Our table shows that the factor is equal at 3.99271 for 8 percent and 5 periods. In addition to this, the present value is $10,381 dollars in the annuity.
For point 2:
[tex]Present \ Value=507,866\\\\ Annuity \ Amount= 135,000\\\\ i =?\\\\n =4[/tex]
[tex]\text{Present Value of Ordinary Annuity = Annuity Amount} \times PVOA \ Factor[/tex]
[tex]507,866 = 135,000 \times PVOA \ Factor\\\\\frac{507,866}{135,000} = PVOA \ Factor\\\\3.76197 = PVOA\ Factor[/tex]
When looking at our n=4 row table, we notice that perhaps the factor of PVOA is equal to 3,56197 whenever the rate is equal to 2,5%.
For point 3:
[tex]Present\ Value=661,241\\\\ Annuity\ Amount= 170,000\\\\ i = 9\% \\\\n =?[/tex]
[tex]\text{Present Value of Ordinary Annuity = Annuity Amount} \times PVOA \ Factor[/tex]
[tex]661,241 = 170,000 \times PVOA\ Factor \\\\\frac{661,241}{170,000} = PVOA \ Factor\\\\3.88965 = PVOA \ Factor[/tex]
If you really are looking at our table in column i = 9%, we found PVOA is 3.88965 if n is 5.
For point 4:
[tex]Present\ Value= 540,000 \\\\Annuity \ Amount=78,557\\\\ i = ?\\\\n =8[/tex]
[tex]\text{Present Value of Ordinary Annuity = Annuity Amount} \times PVOA \ Factor[/tex]
[tex]540,000 = 78,557 \times PVOA\ Factor\\\\\frac{540,000}{78,557} = PVOA \ Factor\\\\6.873989 = PVOA \ Factor[/tex]
If you verify our table for n = 8 lines, the PVOA factor is approximately 6.87399 when the rate of interest is 3.5 percent.
For point 5:
[tex]Present\ Value=230,000\\\\ Annuity\ Amount=?\\\\ i =10\%\\\\ n =4[/tex]
The PVOA factor is 3.16997 when we search our table with i = 10% and n = 4.
[tex]230,000 = Annuity \ Amount \times 3.16987\\\\\frac{230,000}{3.16987} = Annuity\ Amount\\\\72,558 = Annuity\ Amount\\\\annuity\ total= \$72,558.[/tex]
