To protect consumers from unfair credit practices, credit laws were established
-true
-false

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

true

Explanation:

"It started with the Consumer Credit Protection Act of 1968, when Congress moved to shield consumers and their financial records from abuse. In the years following, other laws refined consumer rights, spelling out how the government can access bank customers’ information, how banks treat borrowers and the way banks handle customer deposits.

It all came to a head after the Great Recession in 2008, and out of that, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was formed, a new government agency dedicated to protecting consumers.

Today, there are countless laws, acts and regulations designed to protect consumers. The sheer number of laws can be overwhelming, but it is important that consumers understand their basic rights, so they can identify when those rights have been violated."

b) 12.00
c) 15.00
d) 34.17

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $34.17 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor hours are estimated at 100,000 for the year.

Ordering and Receiving $120,000

Machine Setup $297,000

Machining  $1,500,000

Assembly $1,200,000

Inspection $300,000

Total estimated overhead= $3,417,000

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 3,417,000/100,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $34.17 per direct labor hour

Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grow at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2019, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 4%, and the forecasted payout ratio is 45%. Use the AFN equation to forecast Broussard's additional funds needed for the coming year. Enter your answer in dollars. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered as $1,200,000.
Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer: $‭412,600‬

Explanation:

AFN = Increase in assets - Increase in Liabilities - Addition to Retained Earnings

Increase in Assets

= 5,000,000 *  15%

= $750,000

Increase in Liabilities

For liabilities use only the Accounts payable and Accruals.

= (450,000 + 450,000) * 15%

= $135,000

Additional to Retained Earnings

= After tax Profit * ( 1 - Payout ratio)

= (9,200,000 * 4%) * ( 1 - 45%)

= $202,400‬

= 750,000 - 135,000 - 202,400

= $‭412,600‬

Daily demand for a certain product is normally distributed with a mean of 138 and a standard deviation of 13. The supplier is reliable and maintains a constant lead time of 7 days. The cost of placing an order is $17 and the cost of holding inventory is $0.40 per unit per year. There are no stock-out costs, and unfilled orders are filled as soon as the order arrives. Assume sales occur over 358 days of the year.
Your goal here is to find the order quantity and reorder point to satisfy a 73 percent probability of not stocking out during the lead time.

Reorder point

Answers

Answer:

A. Continuous review system

B. Order quantity = 2,049 Books

C. Reorder point=987

Explanation:

a. To manage inventory, the company is using CONTINUOUS REVIEW SYSTEM

b. Calculation to find the order quality

Using this formula

Order quantity = √((2DS)/H)

Let plug in the morning

Order quantity=√ ((2 x 49,404 x 17)/0.40)

Order quantity = 2,049 Books

Calculation for annual demand

Annual demand=138*358 days

Annual demand=49,404

C. Calculation for reorder point

First step is to find the σL

73 % S.L. - z = 0.613

Using this formula to find the σL

σL = (Lσ^2)

Let plug in the formula

σL=√(7(13)^2)

σL= 34.39

Second step is to find the Reorder point using this formula

Reorder point = d bar(L) + zσL

Let plug in the formula

Reorder point = (138)(7) + 0.613(34.39)

Reorder point = 966+21

Reorder point=987

Read the scenario, and then identify how the brainstorming or brainwriting process could be improved. Jeanne, a girls’ outdoor adventure leader, created a meeting agenda to address a problem her troop had. Their cookie fundraiser was in trouble: The mint chocolate chip cookies were not selling. Jeanne wanted the girls to come up with new cookie ideas and innovative ways to sell them. The group began the session by yelling out cookie ideas ranging from real mud pies to snickerdoodles in the shape of a bear. It was an amazing session; everyone participated. The group came up with 50 new cookie ideas in less than 12 minutes, but they could remember only a few of them at the end of the meeting. To improve the group’s brainstorming, Jeanne should:_________

a. Use flip-charts and classify ideas
b. Create an agenda
c. Encourage out-of-the-box thinking

Answers

Answer:

1- a. Use flip-charts and classify ideas.

2) a. Crowd-storming.

Explanation:

1- To improve the group's brainstorm, Jeanne should use flipcharts and classify ideas.

Flipcharts is a whiteboard used as a visual resource, which allows the best visualization of graphics, new ideas, etc., in a dynamic and summarized way, since this visual resource attracts attention, records and helps in the fixing of content and central ideals.

2- The situation represents crowdstorming, which is a marketing strategy used when an organization wants to improve the services and products offered through interaction with groups of employees who can even be consumers, as in the case above.

This strategy helps in better brand positioning, by receiving direct feedbacks from the potential public, which helps in better meeting their wants and needs.

The city of Ashkelon, on the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea, is one of the major cities of the Philistines. A powerful merchant family (known henceforth as The Family) of this city has to decide how to allocate its vast but finite resources to further their own wealth and the glory and influence of their state. Some trade routes use camel caravans and go to the southern deserts, where they may trade in salt and gold with the great inland African nations; others may go north and west, oversea by galley, toward the Greeks; others may push their foul-mouthed, humped mounts east, overland toward Sumeria, to trade in spices and the crafted goods specific to that region. Some of the routes are over more arduous terrain than others, so make take longer to pay off (no revenue is realized by The Family until the caravan returns to Ashkelon). The financial costs and returns of each route are as follows (in Phils, the currency of the Philistines:
Route Costs,Period 0 Revenue, Period1 Revenue, Period 2 Revenue, Period 3
African Route - 75,000 215,000
Greek Route - 50,000 140,000
Sumerian Route -125,000 385,000
Costs are incurred at the end of year zero, and revenues accrue at the end of Periods 1, 2, and 3, for each respective route (for instance, the African caravan returns at the end of period two, at which time its revenue is realized). The discount rate for the shipping company is 5%.
a. Calculate the NPV, B/C ratio, Payback period, and IRR for each route option
b. Rank the route options according to NPV, B/C ratio, Payback period, and IRR
c. If the company had unlimited funds, which trade routes would you recommend the family pursue? Why? Be sure to consider all combinations of routes, including multiple caravans on the same trade route
d. Given that the family can only invest 150,000 Phils, which combination of trade routes would you recommend pursuing? Why?

Answers

Answer:

African Route costs = -75,000, period 1 revenues = 215,000

Greek Route costs = -50,000, period 2 revenues = 140,000

Sumerian Route costs = -125,000, period 3 revenues = 385,000

discount rate = 5%

a) African route:

NPV = -75,000 + 215,000/1.05 = 129,762

B/C ratio = 215/75 = 2.87

Payback = 1 period

IRR = 187%

Greek route:

NPV = -50,000 + 140,000/1.05² = 76,984

B/C ratio = 140/50 = 2.8

Payback = 2 periods

IRR = 67%

Sumerian route

NPV = -125,000 + 385,000/1.05³ = 332,577

B/C ratio = 385/125 = 3.08

Payback = 3 periods

IRR = 45%

b) rank according to:

NPV = Sumerian route, African route, Greek route

B/C ratio = Sumerian route, African route, Greek route

Payback = African route, Greek route, Sumerian route

IRR = African route, Greek route, Sumerian route

c) if the family had unlimited resources, they should invest in the 3 routes since all their NPVs are positive.

d) African and Greek routes since they yield the highest gains (IRR).

b. Before finding the initial​ solution, a dummy_____________ should be introduced.
c. The total cost of the optimal solution​ =____________

Answers

Answer:

(A) An optimization problem

(B) Variable

(C) $14,700

Explanation:

HOUSTON, PHOENIX, MEMPHIS ----- DALLAS, ATLANTA, DENVER

    |                     |                  |                        |               |                 |

  850               650            300                 800         600           200

Shipping Cost per Room Air Conditioner:

HOUSTON to Dallas - $8   [800 × 8 = $6400]

                   to Atlanta - $12   [50 × 12 = $600]

                   to Denver - $10  

Total shipping cost = $7,000

PHOENIX to Dallas - $10  

                 to Atlanta - $14  [250 × 14 = $3500]

                 to Denver - $9  [200 × 9 = $1800]

Total shipping cost = $5,300

MEMPHIS to Dallas - $11

                 to Atlanta - $8  [300 × 8 = $2400]

                 to Denver - $12

Total shipping cost = $2,400

The total cost of the optimal solution is:

7,000 + 5,300 + 2,400 = $14,700

How was this optimal cost gotten?

- Check the least shipping cost to Dallas, this is found in Houston and that's 8 dollars. Houston hence supplies Dallas 800 ACs and has 50 left. Remember this, in case you need more ACs.

- Check the least shipping cost to Atlanta, this is found in Memphis and that's 8 dollars. An obstruction here is that Memphis only has 300 ACs to send to Atlanta, so Atlanta needs 300 more. Keep this in mind.

- Check the least shipping cost to Denver, this is found in Phoenix and that's 9 dollars. Phoenix hence supplies Denver its needed 200 ACs and has 450 left.

- There is need to complete shipping to Atlanta and the next affordable shipping cost to Atlanta is found in Houston and that's $12. Houston should send its remaining 50 ACs to Atlanta.

- Atlanta needs 250 more ACs and Phoenix has 450 extra. Allen Air Conditioning Company can now settle for the relatively high shipping cost of Phoenix to Atlanta, to supply the remaining 250 ACs which Atlanta needs.

Answers

Answer:

A. $36.28

B. $8.48

Explanation:

a. Calculation for the amount of OASDI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay

OASDI taxes is 6.2%

Hence,

OASDI taxes to withhold = 585.15*0.62

OASDI taxes to withhold = $36.28

Therefore the OASDI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay is $36.28

b. Calculation for the amount of HI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay

HI taxes is 1.45%

Hence,

HI taxes to withhold =585.15*0.0145

HI taxes to withhold=$8.48

Therefore HI taxes to withhold from Crow's pay is $8.48

Options A and C are correct.

What is a central bank?

A central bank is referring to the largest bank that controls the regional and subordinate banks. It is the bank in which the commercial banks keep the needed reserve ratio. There are various policies being made by the central bank to monitor the monetary system like fiscal policy, monetary policy, economic policy, etc.

The central bank of the US country is the Federal Reserve that applied the expansionary monetary policy.  The three ways that are made by Federal Reserve in respect of this policy are by making the discount rates to be fallen down for every bank, by acquiring the securities being sold by the government in the market and by keeping the reserve ratio to the lowest so that commercial banks can easily maintain them.

Fields Company has two manufacturing departments, forming and painting. The company uses the weighted-average method of process costing. At the beginning of the month, the forming department has 36,000 units in inventory, 70% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs. The beginning inventory cost of $82,100 consisted of $58,000 of direct materials costs and $24,100 of conversion costs.
During the month, the forming department started 520,000 units. At the end of the month, the forming department had 40,000 units in ending inventory, 85% complete as to materials and 35% complete as to conversion. Units completed in the forming department are transferred to the painting department. Cost information for the forming department is as follows:

1B. Calculate the costs per equivalent unit of production for the forming department.
1C. Using the weighted-average method, assign costs to the forming department’s output—specifically, its units transferred to painting and its ending work in process inventory.

Answers

Answer:

beginning WIP 36,000

$58,000 of direct materials costs

$24,100 of conversion costs

units started 520,000

units finished 516,000

materials added during the month $1,942,930

conversion added during the month $1,359,730

ending WIP 40,000

materials 85% complete, EU = 34,000

conversion 35%, EU = 14,000

total equivalent units

materials = 516,000 + 34,000 = 550,000

conversion = 516,000 + 14,000 = 530,000

cost per equivalent unit

materials = ($58,000 + $1,942,930) / 550,000 = $3.63805

conversion = ($24,100 + $1,359,730) / 530,000 = $2.611

total = $6.24905

costs assigned to

units transferred out = $6.24905 x 516,000 = $3,224,511

ending WIP = (34,000 x $3.63805) + (14,000 x $2.611) = $160,249

A company has the following aging schedule of its accounts receivable with the estimated percent uncollectible:______.

0-60 days past due $ 40,000 10 %
61-120 days past due $ 10,000 30 %
More than 120 days past due $ 5,000 60 %
Assuming the balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is $3,000 (credit) before adjustment, which of the following would be recorded in the year-end adjusting entry?

Answers

Answer: $14,000

Explanation:

Estimated Uncollectible = (4% * 175,000) + ( 10% * 40,000) + ( 30% * 10,000) + (60% * 5,000)

= 7,000 + 4,000 + 3,000 + 3,000

= $17,000

The credit balance on the Allowance account will be used to account for some of the uncollectibles. The remaining amount will be the year-end adjusting entry;

= 17,000 - 3,000

= $14,000

The shipping cost per unit from Houston to Dallas is $8, to Atlanta $12, and to Denver $10. The cost per unit from Phoenix to Dallas is $10, to Atlanta $14, and to Denver $9. The cost per unit from Memphis to Dallas is $11, to Atlanta $8, and to Denver $12.

Required:
a. How many units should owner Stephen Allen ship from each plant to each regional distribution center?
b. What is the total transportation cost?

Answers

Answer:

$14700

Explanation:

Given that:

i. Dallas needs 800 per month

ii. Atlanta needs 600 per month

iii. Denver needs 200 per month

iv. Houston has 850 available per month

v. Phoenix has 650 available per month

vi. Memphis has 300 available per month

Assuming that a plant can deliver air conditioners to more than one regional distributor in a month. Then;

a. For least-cost way to meet the demand, Stephen Allen could ship the air conditioners to each regional distributors as follows:

From Houston to Dallas = 800 units

From Houston to Atlanta = 50 units

From Phoenix to Atlanta = 250 units

From Memphis to Atlanta = 300 units

From Phoenix to Denver = 200 units

Total units transported = 1600 units

b. Cost per transportation:

Houston to Dallas = $8 x 800  = $6400

Houston to Atlanta = $12 x 50 = $600

Phoenix to Atlanta = $14 x 250 = $3500

Memphis to Atlanta = $8 x 300 = $2400

Phoenix to Denver = $9 x 200 = $1800

Total transportation cost = $6400 +$600 + $3500 + $2400 + $1800

                                         = $14700

The total transportation cost would be $14700.

Consider an economy that produces only chocolate bars. In year 1, the quantity produced is 3 bars and the price is $2. In year 2, the quantity produced is 5 bars and the price is $4. In year 3, the quantity produced is 7 bars and the price is $6.

Required:
Using year 1 as the base year, compute nominal GDP, real GDP, and the GDP deflator for each year.

Answers

Answer:

Nominal GDP in year 1 = $6

Nominal GDP in year 2 = $20

Nominal GDP in year 3 =  $42

Real GDP in year 1 = $6

Real GDP in year 2 = $10

Real GDP in year 3 =  $14

GDP deflator in year 1 = 100

GDP deflator in year 2 = 200

GDP deflator in year 3 = 300

Explanation:

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

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Nominal GDP = quantity produced x current year price

Nominal GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Nominal GDP in year 2 = 5 x $4 = $20

Nominal GDP in year 3 = 7 x $6 = $42

Real GDP = quantity produced x base year price

Real GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Real GDP in year 2 = 5 x $2 = $10

Real GDP in year 3 = 7 x $2 = $14

GDP deflator = nominal GDP / Real GDP x 100

GDP deflator in year 1 = $6 / $6 x 100 = 100

GDP deflator in year 2 = $20 / $10 x 100= 200

GDP deflator in year 3 = $42 / 14 x 100 = 300

Eduardo has been reading about the use of drone technology in recent military conflicts and is not quite sure what to think. On the one hand, the use of drones means that military missions can be executed without putting American lives at risk. On the other hand, this very fact means that our political leaders might be quicker to resort to military solutions when other solutions might be available. Eduardo is also concerned about other effects of fully mechanized battle operations. For instance, unlike a human soldier, a drone can neither hear nor sympathize with a mother pleading for the life of her innocent child. Eduardo has decided to research the topic of military drones in more detail and write an essay in which he decides whether the use of drone technology is a positive or negative development in the history of American military action. Which type of argument will Eduardo be making?

a. Argument of fact
b. Argument of definition
c. Argument of evaluation
d. Policy argument

Answers

Answer:

c. Argument of evaluation

Explanation:

Eduardo will be making a decision on "whether the use of drone technology is a positive or negative development in the history of American military action."  This is a judgement call.  And he will be determining whether or not drone usage is good or bad.  So this is purely an argument of evaluation.  The argument is not of fact or definition or a policy argument, but one in which he will establish his opinion on the issue of the use of drone technology in the military.

Explanation:

Last month Empire Company had a $35,280 profit on sales of $287,000. Fixed costs are $68,040 a month. By how much would sales be able to decrease for Empire to still break even

Answers

Answer:

sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even

Explanation:

gross profit = net income + fixed costs = $35,280 + $68,040 = $103,320

COGS = total sales - gross profit = $287,000 - $103,320 = $183,680

contribution margin ratio = $103,320 / $287,000 = 36%

break even point in $ = $68,040 / 36% = $189,000

sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even
