When considering barriers to international communication, companies should be aware that noise tends to increase the probability of effective communication. source effects can be beneficial for an international business when potential consumers in a target country have a bias against foreign firms. many international businesses try to promote positive source effects by deemphasizing their foreign origins. fewer firms vie for the attention of prospective customers in developing countries, thus the noise level is lower. research suggests consumers use country of origin when evaluating a product, when they have detailed knowledge of the product.

Mixed Costs and Cost Formula Callie's Gym is a complete fitness center. Owner Callie Ducain employs various fitness trainers who are expected to staff the front desk and to teach fitness classes. While on the front desk, trainers answer the phone, handle walk-ins and show them around the gym, answer member questions about the weight machines, and do light cleaning (wiping down the equipment, vacuuming the floor). The trainers also teach fitness classes (e.g., pilates, spinning, body pump) according to their own interest and training level. The cost of the fitness trainers is $600 per month and $20 per class taught. Last month, 100 classes were taught. Required: 1. Develop a cost equation for total cost of labor. Total labor cost = $ + $ per class taught 2. What was total variable labor cost last month? $ 3. What was total labor cost last month? $ 4. What was the unit cost of labor (per class) for last month? $ per class 5. What if Callie increased the number of classes offered by 50 percent? a. What would be the total labor cost? $ b. The unit labor cost? $ c. Explain why the unit labor cost d

Answers

Answer:

1 = $600 + $20 × X

2. = $2000

3 = $2,600

4 = $26 per class

5 = a = $3,600

b = $24

c =  the cost per unit has reduced from $26 to $24.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

We assume no. of units = X

1.Total Labor Cost =Total Fixed Cost + (Variable Cost Per Unit × No. of Units)

= $600 + $20 × X

2. Last month 100 classes were taught.

Total Variable Cost = No. of Classes Taught × Variable Cost Per Class

= 100 × $20 = $2000

3. When 100 classes were taught, total labor cost is-

Total Labor Cost = Total Fixed Cost + (No. of Units × Variable Cost Per Units)

= $600 + 100 × $20

= $600 + $2,000

= $2,600

4. Per Classes Unit Cost of Labor =Total Labor Cost ÷ No. of Classes Taught

= $2,600 ÷ 100

= $26 per class

5. If the No. of taught classes increase by 50% then the no. of classes is offered = 100 + (100 × 50 ÷ 100) = 150

a). Total Labor Cost if the no. of classes taught are 150

Total Labor Cost = Total Fixed Cost + (No. of Units × Variable Cost Per Units)

= $600 + 150 × $20

= $600 + $3,000

= $3,600

b). Per Classes Unit Cost of Labor = Total Labor Cost ÷ No. of Classes Taught

= $3,600 ÷ 150

= $24

c). After the change in the level of the activity variable cost per unit and fixed cost per unit remain same. So if there is an increase in the taught classes then the cost per unit has reduced from $26 to $24.

Ziva is an organic lettuce farmer, but she also spends part of her day as a professional organizing consultant. As a consultant, Ziva helps people organize their houses. Due to the popularity of her home-organization services, Farmer Ziva has more clients requesting her services than she has time to help if she maintains her farming business. Farmer Ziva charges $25 an hour for her home-organization services. One spring day, Ziva spends 10 hours in her fields planting $130 worth of seeds on her farm. She expects that the seeds she planted will yield $300 worth of lettuce.


Refer to Scenario 13-3. Ziva's economic profit from farming equals _______.

Answers

Answer:

Economic profit= -$80

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Farmer Ziva charges $25 an hour for her home-organization services. One spring day, Ziva spends 10 hours in her fields planting $130 worth of seeds on her farm. She expects that the seeds she planted will yield $300 worth of lettuce.

Fir the third quarter, the sales are 1,000 units, the seasonal index fir the quarter is 0.85. what is the deseasonalized sales for the quarter

Answers

Answer:

1,176 units

Explanation:

The demand which is created due to a season or specific time in each year is called seasonal demand.

Seasonal Demand = 1,000 units

Seasonal Index = 0.85

Using following formula we can calculate the deseasonalized sales

Seasonal demand = Deseasonalized Sales x  Seasonal Index

Placing value in the formula

1,000 units = Deseasonalized Sales x 0.85

Deseasonalized Sales = 1,000 / 0.85 = 1176.47

Deseasonalized Sales = 1,176 units

Andre Candess manages an office supply store. One product in the store is computer paper. Andre knows that 10,000 boxes will be sold this year at a constant rate throughout the year. There are 250 working days per year and the lead-time is 3 days. The cost of placing an order is $30, while the holding cost is $15 per box per year. If he orders in batches of 500 boxes at a time, what is his annual holding cost

Answers

Answer:

$3,750

Explanation:

The computation of the annual holding cost is shown below:

= Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × holding cost per box per year

where,

Economic order quantity = 500 boxes

And, the holding cost per box per year is $15

Now putting the values to the above formula

The annual holding cost is

= 500 boxes ÷ 2 × $15 per box per year

= 250 boxes × $15 per box per year

= $3,750

Explanation:

Other expenses in business management are non-operating expenses that a business incurs. It is a cost that isn't related to the main operation of a company's business, such as interest expense, losses incurred from disposal of a fixed asset.

Other revenues in business are revenues that are derived by a company from any source other than the company's business operations, such as a company selling one of it's restaurants.

Discontinued operations in business describes a situation where parts of a company's core business are sold, abandoned or shut down and all the profits or losses are usually reported separately on an income statement.

B) $65,000.
C) $88,700.
D) $66,950.

Answers

Answer:

c. $88,700

Explanation:

The computation of operating income for Winston Corporation is shown below:-

Particulars              Dropping before              Dropping after

Sales a                  $469,000                           $383,500

                                                                         ($295,000 × 130%)

Variable cost b     $181,000                              $131,300

($101,000 × 130%)

Contribution margin $288,000                          $252,200

(c = a - b)

Direct fixed cost d  $160,000                          $87,000

Segment margin e $128,000                           $165,200

(e = c - d)

Allocated common cost f $76,500                  $76,500

Operating income(loss) $51,500                      $88,700

(g = d - e)

Therefore to reach the operating income(loss) we simply deduct the allocated common cost from segment margin.

Martin Services Company provides its employees vacation benefits and a defined contribution pension plan. Employees earned vacation pay of $45,000 for the period. The pension plan requires a contribution to the plan administrator equal to 7% of employee salaries. Salaries were $400,000 during the period. Required: Provide the journal entries for (a) the vacation pay and (b) the pension benefit. Refer to the Chart of Accounts for exact wording of account titles.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

a. Vacation and Holidays expenses Dr. $45,000

           To vacation and Holidays payable   $45,000

(Being the Vacation pay is recorded)

b. Pension Expense Dr.  $28,000  ($400,000 × 7%)

           To Pension Liability  $28,000

(Being the pension benefit is recorded)

For recording this we debited the pension expense as it increase the expenses and credited the pension liability as it also increase the liabilities    


Quad Enterprises is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.31 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $1,785,000 in annual sales, with costs of $695,000. The tax rate is 25 percent and the required return on the project is 12 percent. What is the project’s NPV? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 1,234,567.89.)

Answers

Answer:

$115,849.581

Explanation:

For computing the net present value first we have to do following calculations

Annual depreciation expense is

= (Cost - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life

= ($2.31 million ÷ 3)

= $770,000

Now

Annual Operating cash flow = (Sales - Costs) × (1 - tax rate) + Tax savings on Annual depreciation

= ($1,785,000 - $695,000) × (1 - 0.25) + (0.25 × $770,000)

= $817,500 + $192,500

= $1,010,000

Now Present value of annuity is

= Annuity × [1 - (1 + interest rate)^ -time period] ÷ rate  

= $1,010,000 × {1 - (1.12)^-3] ÷ 0.12

= $1,010,000 × 2.401831268

= $2,425,849.581

So, Net present value  is

= Present value of inflows - Present value of outflows

= $2,425,849.581 - $2,310,000

= $115,849.581

Direct labor $45
Variable manufacturing overhead $12
Fixed manufacturing overhead $1,296,000
Variable selling and administrative expenses $ 10
Fixed selling and administrative expenses $ 1,134,000
These costs are based on a budgeted volume of 80,000 units produced and sold each year. National uses cost-plus pricing methods to set its target selling price. The markup percentage on total unit cost is 35%.
Required:
a) Compute the total variable cost per unit, total fixed cost per unit, and total cost per unit for M14–M16.
b) Compute the desired ROI per unit for M14–M16. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 10.50.)

Answers

Answer:

Total Variable Costs  per unit $ 90

Total Fixed Cost per unit $ 30.375

Total Unit Costs= $ 120.375

The investor will receive a benefit of $ 1.13 per unit .

Explanation:

National Corporation

M14–M16

                                                 Per Unit                  Total

Direct materials                            $23                    1840,000

Direct labor                                   $45                  3600,000  

Variable manufacturing overhead $12                960,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead                          $1,296,000

Variable selling & Admin.  expenses $ 10           800,000

Fixed selling and administrative expenses         $ 1,134,000

Total Variable Costs  per unit $ 90

Direct materials $23

Direct labor $45

Variable manufacturing overhead $12

Variable selling & Admin.  expenses $ 10

Total Fixed Cost per unit $ 30.375

Fixed manufacturing overhead   =$1,296,000/ 80,000=  $ 16.2

Fixed selling and administrative expenses  = $ 1,134,000 / 80,000 = $ 14.175

Total Unit Costs= Total Variable Costs  per unit + Total Fixed Cost per unit

                         =$ 90 + $ 30.375= $ 120.375

Return on investment measures the benefit an investor will receive in relation to their investment cost.

Desired ROI per unit + Fixed Cost= Mark Up  Percentage * Variable Cost Per Unit

Putting values in the above

Desired ROI per unit +  $ 30.375= 35 % * $ 90

Desired ROI per unit = 31.5- 30.375

Desired ROI per unit = $ 1.125= $ 1.13

The investor will receive a benefit of $ 1.13 per unit .

There are no beginning inventories. What is the operating income using absorption costing if 580 units are sold for $ 120 ​each?

Answers

Answer:

$22,040

Explanation:

The operating income using absorption costing is find out by using the following equation

Sales revenue                        $69,600    (580 units × $120)

Less:

Direct material cost               $2,900    (580 units × $5)  

Direct labor cost                    $16,820    (580 units × $29)  

Variable manufacturing overhead $5,800    (580 units × $10)  

Fixed manufacturing overhead     $12,180

Variable selling and admin cost $1,740    (580 units × $3)  

Fixed selling and admin cost      $8,120

Operating income using absorption costing   $22,040

We simply deduct the all cost from the sales so that the operating income under absorption costing could come

Property Rights and Corruption When looking at a country as a market or investment, the international business must consider the country's legal system. In that assessment, the firm needs to understand the differences between private actions, which refer to theft, piracy, blackmail, and the like from individuals or groups, and public actions, which are those actions taken by politicians and government bureaucrats. Either kind of action would pose a serious threat to the firm's investment or operations. Before the firm can seek legal remedies, it must clearly understand the options open to it.
In a legal sense, property refers to a resource over which an individual or a business holds a legal title. It is a resource that it owns. Countries differ in the extent to which their legal systems define and protect property rights, even those countries that are still nominally communist states. Property rights can be violated, sometimes by governments and sometimes by individuals or groups.

Eclectic Paradigm is a three-tiered evaluation process which a company that plans to go international must follow in determining whether it would profit the company better limiting its operations to the domestic market or extending its operations to the international market.

The eclectic paradigm is called the OLI model or framework.  It examines the Ownership Rights, Locational Advantages, and Internalization Factors.  This helps the company to make decisions that are beneficial to it.

Property rights and corruption are aspects of the Ownership Rights that must be considered.  Failure to put these factors into consideration may expose the company to risks and uncertainties and greatly reduce the ability of the company to increase economic benefits arising from transactions.

Caden is 62 years old and has a traditional IRA with a balance of $220,000. Of that amount, $66,000 is from nondeductible contributions made while Caden was working. Earnings on the nondeductible contributions equal $20,600. If Caden withdraws $15,000 from his IRA this year, $_____ will NOT be subject to taxation.

Answers

Answer:

$4500.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information in the question above;

=>" traditional IRA with a balance => $220,000."

=> "Of that amount, $66,000 is from nondeductible contributions made while Caden was working. "

=> "Earnings on the nondeductible contributions equal $20,600. "

=> "If Caden withdraws $15,000 from his IRA this year"

Hence;

The amount that will NOT be subject to taxation = (Amount from nondeductible contributions made while Caden was working) ÷ (traditional IRA with a balance) × (withdrawal from his IRA this year).

=> [66000/ 220000] × 15,000 = $4500.

NB: IRA stands for Individual retirement account and it is used in the United States of America to allow workers to save for their retirement and making sure that they are tax-free.
