Can this information be used to estimate an inverse demand curve? A demand curve? Explain briefly. Asking how many customers would buy a proposed new menu item at various prices can be used to estimate A. the inverse demand curve, and the demand curve can be calculated from it. B. only the inverse demand curve. C. neither the demand curve nor the inverse demand curve. D. only the demand curve. E. the demand curve, and the inverse demand curve can be calculated from it.
Answer:
E. the demand curve, and the inverse demand curve can be calculated from it.
Explanation:
A demand function helps to show the relation between quantity demanded and price, the price here is the quantity is a function of price. So, writing the function in other way round, the price which is a function of quantity demanded is called as an inverse demand function.
As per the details given in the question above, it is clear that the quantity is a function of price. The prices on the menu varies and the quantity demanded is determined through various prices. Using this a demand function can easily be computed since quantity is a function of price.

HW13. Suppose that you begin saving up to buy a car by depositing a certain amount at the end of each month in a savings account which pays 3.6% annual interest compounded monthly. If your goal is to have $15,000 in the account four and a half years from now, how much do you need to put into the savings account each month
Answer:
$256.31
Explanation:
Interest rate per annum = 3.6%
Number of years = 4.5
No of payment per annum = 12
Interest rate per period 3.6%/12 = 0.3%
Number of period = 4.5*12 = 54
FV of annuity = 15,000
Deposit in each month (P) = FVA / ([1+r)^n - 1]/r)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / ([1+0.3%]^54 - 1) / 0.3%)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / ([1.003^54 - 1]/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / (1.175575 - 1/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / (0.175575/0.003)
Deposit in each month (P) = 15,000 / 58.525
Deposit in each month (P) = 256.3007262
Deposit in each month (P) = $256.31
The partnership of Keenan and Kludlow paid the following wages during this year:

C. Rudolph (maintenance) 5,100
In addition, the partnership owed $200 to Rudolph for work he performed during December. However, payment for this work will not be made until January of the following year. The state unemployment tax rate for the company is 2.95% on the first $9,000 of each employee's earnings. Compute the following:
a. Net FUTA tax for the partnership for this year.
b. SUTA tax for this year.
Answer:
a. The Net FUTA tax for the partnership for this year is $1,680.
b. The SUTA tax for this year is $1,062.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
M. Keenan (partner) $85,000
S. Kludlow (partner) 75,000
N. Perry (supervisor) 53,000
T. Lee (factory worker) 34,600
R. Rolf (factory worker) 29,800
D. Broch (factory worker) 6,900
Ruiz (bookkeeper) 25,400
C. Rudolph (maintenance) 5,100
Gross payroll = $314,800
FUTA rate is 6% for the first $7,000
Gross Pay FUTA SUTA
(first $7,000) (first $9,000)
N. Perry (supervisor) 53,000 $420 $265.50
T. Lee (factory worker) 34,600 420 265.50
R. Rolf (factory worker) 29,800 420 265.50
D. Broch (factory worker) 6,900 0 0
Ruiz (bookkeeper) 25,400 420 265.50
C. Rudolph (maintenance) 5,100 0 0
Payroll for employees = $154,800 $1,680 $1,062
b) The FUTA tax rate is 6.0%. The tax applies to the first $7,000 that Keenan and Kludlow paid to each employee as wages during the year. This first $7,000 is often referred to as the federal or FUTA wage base. The state's SUTA tax rate depends on each state where SUTA is collected. Note that the additional $200 owed to Rudolph does not alter his base wages which fall below $7,000.

b. the return on capital will fall as the supply of capital decreases over time, and simultaneously, the price for loanable funds will increase as savers make even more savings available.
c. eventually the return on capital will decrease to the point where businesses will find it profitable to borrow loanable funds
Answer:
If the return on capital is 12% and the price for loanable funds is 14%, then:____.
a. currently businesses will not borrow loanable funds to invest in capital goods.
Explanation:
This simply means that the costs of borrowing exceed the returns. This makes borrowing and investment unattractive to businesses. The resulting effect on the economy will be disastrous. Many economic variables will be affected negatively, especially output and employment. At such times, the central bank needs to intervene with monetary policies to move the economy out of recession.

If you calculate GDP by adding together the final demands of consumers, business firms, the government, and foreigners (i.e., using the expenditure approach), GDP for this economy is ________$ billion. Given this information, the statistical discrepancy between national income and net national product, obtained when GDP is measured using the expenditure approach, is________ $ billion.
Answer:
A. $16,041 billion
B. $33 billion
Explanation:
A. Calculation to Determine what GDP for this economy is using the expenditure approach
Using this formula
GDP by expenditure method=C+I+G+X-M
Let plug in the formula
GDP by expenditure method= 6,300+2,300+4,521+3,120-200
GDP by expenditure method=$16,041 billions
Therefore GDP for this economy is $16,041 billion
B. Calculation to determine the statistical discrepancy.
First step is to calculate GDP at MP by income method
GDP at MP by income method=8,174+365+903+1,895+1,343+1,987+1,341
GDP at MP by income method=$16,008 billions
Now let calculate the Statistical discrepancy using this formula
Statistical discrepancy= GDP by expenditure method - GDP by income method
Let plug in the formula
Statistical discrepancy=$16,008-$16,041
Statistical discrepancy=$33 billions
Therefore the statistical discrepancy between national income and net national product, obtained when GDP is measured using the expenditure approach is $33 billion.

USAco, a domestic corporation, manufactures widgets for sale worldwide. In year 2020, USAco had $10 million of net income related to sales of products it manufactures in the US, of which 3 million relates to sales to customers outside the US. USACO also owns a factory, which it uses to produce the above income, and which has an average adjusted U.S. tax basis of $40 million (taking into account the straight-line depreciation method). As a result of these activities, USACo will be allowed a Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") deduction of _______________
Answer:
USAco
As a result of these activities, USACo will be allowed a Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") deduction of _______________
$236,250.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations
Net income = $10 million
Export sales income = $3 million
Normal tax on $3 million at 21% = $630,000
FDII 13.125% tax on $3 million = $393,750
Difference = $236,250
b) A foreign derived intangible income (FDII) arises from the ownership, sale, or exchange of intangible property, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, or other products tied to intangible assets by USACo, which entitles it to make a tax deduction of the calculated amount or to be taxed at a reduced tax rate of 13.125% instead of the normal 21% corporate tax rate. The FDII is aimed at encouraging US-based corporations to export more goods and services while locating more intangible assets in the US.
For lunch, Ada prefers to eat soup and bread in fixed proportions. When she eats X pints of soup, she prefers to eat 2X ounces of bread. If she has X pints of soup and more than 2X ounces of bread, she eats all the soup along with 2X ounces of bread and throws the extra bread away. If she has 2X ounces of bread and more than X ounces of soup (say Y ounces), she eats all the bread along with X ounces of soup and throws the extra soup away. Draw Ada's indifference curves between soup and bread.
Answer:
Ada's indifference curves between soup and bread is an example of Perfect Complement Indifference Curve.
Explanation:
Note: See the attached photo for Ada's indifference curves between soup and bread with pints of soup on the vertical axis and ounces of bread on the horizontal axis.
Ada's indifference curves between soup and bread is an example of Perfect Complement Indifference Curve.
The way soup and bread are described in the question, it implies they are complements.
When two goods are perfect complements, their indifference curve (IC) will be right-angled or L shaped as drawn in the attached photo.
The IC implies that soup and bread are consumed by Ada in fixed proportions or ratio which in this case is 1:2.
From the attached file, Ada has to consume 1 pint of soup and 2 ounces of bread at point A to be on the IC1. To be on IC2, she has to consume 2 pint of soup and 4 ounces of bread at point B to maintain the fixed ratio "1:2 = 2:4". Also, to be on IC3, she has to consume 3 pint of soup and 6 ounces of bread at point C to still maintain the fixed ratio "1:2 = 3:6", and so on.
Therefore, an increase in the consumption of either soup or bread without a proportional increase in the consumption of the other good that maintains the fixed proportion will not give Ada additional utility that can take her to a higher indifference curve.

Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Issue of 10-year 8% Convertible Debentures at 102 = $3,814,800 (Cash)
Debenture premium $74,800
Half-yearly premium amortization = $74,800/20 = $3,740
Face value = $3,740,000
b) Interest on Debenture = $3,740,000 * 8% * 1/2 = $149,600
c) $374,000 debentures converted into 8 shares for every $1,000.
= $374,000/1,000 * 8 = 2,992 shares at $100 par value
d) Interest on Debentures ($3,740,000 - $374,000) * 8% * 1/4
= $3,366,000 * 8% * 1/4 = $67,320
Plus
$3,366,000 - $374,000 * 8% * 1/4 = $59,840
Total interest = $127,160

Bassett Corporation has two production departments, Milling and Customizing. The company uses a job-order costing system and computes a predetermined overhead rate in each production department. The Milling Department's predetermined overhead rate is based on machine-hours and the Customizing Department's predetermined overhead rate is based on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the current year, the company had made the following estimates:
Machining Customizing
Machine-hours 17,000 15,000
Direct labor-hours 3,000 6,000
Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $102,000 $61,200
Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $1.70
Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour $4.10
During the current month the company started and finished Job T268. The following data were recorded for this job:
Job T268: Machining Customizing
Machine-hours 80 30
Direct labor-hours 30 50
Direct materials $720 $380
Direct labor cost $900 $1,500

a. $6,763.40
b. $7,440.00
c. $4,831.00
d. $1,932.40
Answer:
a. $6,763.40
Explanation:
The computation of the selling price is shown below:
But before that the predetermined overhead rate is
For machining
= ($102000 ÷ 17,000) + $1.70
= $7.7 per machine hour
For fabrication
= ($61200 ÷ 6000) + $4.10
= $14.30 per labour hour
Now the selling price is
Direct material ($720 + $380) $1,100
Direct labor ($900 + $1,500) $2,400
Machining department overhead (7.7 × 80) $616
Fabrication department overhead (50 × 14.3) $715
Total manufacturing cost $4,831
Markup 40% $1,932.40
Selling price $6,763.40
Tomkat Corp. has only a single asset. This asset generates operating cash flow of $300,000 per year, in perpetuity. Tomkat also has a single liability, which is a perpetual bond (the maturity date is infinitely far in the future) that has a face value of $1 million and that pays coupon interest at a rate of 6% once per year. The appropriate discount rate for the asset is 10%, while that for the bond is 5% per year.
Required:
What is the value of Tomkat’s equity?
Answer:
$1,800,000
Explanation:
Value of Tomcat's Asset = $300000 / 0.1
Value of Tomcat's Asset = $3,000,000
Interest amount = $1,000,000 * 6%
Interest amount = $60000
Value of Liability (bond) = $60000/0.05
Value of Liability (bond) = $1,200,000
Value of Tomcat's equity = $3000000 - $1200000
Value of Tomcat's equity = $1,800,000

1. What information is provided by the budget? Specifically, what questions can the bank manager ask of the Operations Department
manager?
2. What information does the static budget fail to provide? Specifically, could the budget information be presented differently to
provide even more insight for the bank manager?
Answer:
Some of the information provided by the budget is...
fixed costs - items such as rent, salaries and financing costs
variable costs - including raw materials and overtime
one-off capital costs - purchases of computer equipment or premises, for example
Some interview questions include:
What would you say is your leadership style?
You have an underperforming team member–how do you handle that?
Your team's morale has been low–how would you go about fixing that?
Tell me about a past project that did not go as planned.
2. One key disadvantage of a static budget is that it is not flexible and so it cannot be changed to take advantage of changes in revenue or expenses as the year proceeds. With a static budget, companies cannot manage the impact of changes, for example, by decreasing a portion of the budget in response to slow sales.
