Victryl Company applies overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, Victryl estimates overhead to be $700,000, machine hours to be 200,000, and direct labor hours to be 35,000. During February, Victryl has 5,000 direct labor hours and 10,000 machine hours.

If the actual overhead for February is $98,300, what is the overhead variance, and is it overapplied or underapplied?

a.$1,700 overapplied
b.$600 overapplied
c.$1,000 underapplied
d.$1200 underapplied
e.$800 overapplied

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a.$1,700 over applied

Explanation:

For computing the overhead variance, first we have to compute the predetermined overhead rate which is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)

= $700,000 ÷ 35,000 hours

= $20

Now we have to find the applied overhead which equal to

= Actual direct labor-hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 5,000 hours × $20

= $100,000

So, the overhead variance equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - applied overhead

= $98,300 - $100,000

= $1,700 over-applied

Assume the following: (1) Desired target operating income $20,000; unit price for sales $500; variable costs per unit $300; total fixed cost $10,000. (2) We have applied the formula to calculate the contribution margin method of determining target operating income, and have arrived at a numerator amount of $30,000 (20,000 plus 10,000) and a denominator amount of $200 (500 minus 300). (3) These figures yield an answer of 150 units (30,000 divided by 200). What is the required revenue to achieve the target operating income of $20,000?

Answers

Answer:

$75,000

Explanation:

The targeted operating income is the difference between the targeted total sales and the budgeted total cost. The total cost is the sum of the fixed and variable cost. The sales and variable cost are dependent on the level of activities or number of units produced and sold.

The difference between the sales and variable cost gives the contribution margin.

Let the number of units sold be c

500c - 300c - 10,000 = 20,000

200c = 30,000

c = 150 units

Required revenue to earn target income is the product of the unit sales with the number of units sold

= $500 × 150

= $75,000

Answer:

$75,000 sales revenue

Explanation:

We solve using the target profit formula:

[tex]\frac{Fixed\:Cost + Target Profit }{Contribution \:Margin} = Units for Profit[/tex]

Where:

[tex]Sales \: Revenue - Variable \: Cost = Contribution \: Margin[/tex]

We divide the fixed cost and the target profit over the amount of contribution generate for each unit:

500 sales price - 300 variable cost = 200

Now:

[tex]\frac{10,000 + 20,000 }{200} = Units for Profit[/tex]

150 units

Last, we multiply by the sales revenue per unit:

150 units x $500  = $75,000

Karen Bates has owned several automobiles from her favorite brand. Therefore, when deciding to purchase a new car for her daughter, her brand loyalty made the decision easy. Consequently, she gifted her daughter the latest model of that brand. According to the functional theory of attitudes, this scenario relates to the _____.

Answers

Answer: Knowledge function of attitudes

Explanation:

Knowledge function of attitude helps with the decision making process. Knowledge helps customers make a buying decision based off of what they know about the products and brands they are buying. For example, as a consumer I am an exclusive apple product user. If apple comes out with a product, I trust their quality based off the other products I already own. Because I have the knowledge of my apple products, I can make a simple decision on any future apple products I would want

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": knowledge function of attitudes.

Explanation:

American psychologist Daniel Katz (1903-1998) proposed there are four (4) functions of attitudes: Adjustment Function, Ego-Defensive Function, Value-Expressive Function, and Knowledge Function.

The Knowledge Function of attitudes represents individuals' needs for having a consistent and stable source of information. It helps them perceive the world as "more understandable", therefore predictable. The absence of this type of function creates individuals to be reluctant over a certain matter.

Thus, Karen Bates's example relates the reluctant Knowledge Function of attitudes since she predictably gifted her daughter a vehicle from the brand she has always purchased from.

A municipal bond has a YTM of 4.11 percent while the YTM of a comparable taxable bond is 6.16 percent. What is the tax rate that will make an investor indifferent between the municipal bond and the taxable bond

Answers

Answer:

tax-rate 32.73%

Explanation:

The municipal bonds are tax-free thus, the private corporate bond is a pre-tax yield. We should solve for thetax rate which makes the 6.16% private bond yield 4.11% after tax:

0.0611 x ( 1 - t ) = 0.0411

t = 1 - 0.0411/0.0611 = 0,32733224

Being taxed at 32.73% will make the investor indifferent between these two options.

Neeley Grocery has a monthly target operating income of​ $25,000. Variable expenses are​ 20% of sales and monthly fixed expenses are​ $15,000. What is Neeley​ Grocery's operating leverage factor at the target level of operating​ income?

Answers

Answer:

1.6

Explanation:

In this question, we use the operating leverage factor that is shown below:

Operating Leverage Factor = Contribution ÷ Operating Income

where,

Contribution = Operating income + monthly fixed expenses

                     = $25,000 + $15,000

                     = $40,000

And, the operating income is $25,000

So, the operating leverage factor is

= $40,000 ÷ $25,000

= 1.6

The operating leverage factor is 1.6

Calculation of operating leverage factor:

Operating Leverage Factor = Contribution ÷ Operating Income

Here

Contribution = Operating income + monthly fixed expenses

                    = $25,000 + $15,000

                    = $40,000

And, the operating income is $25,000

So, the operating leverage factor is

= $40,000 ÷ $25,000

= 1.6

Suppose that, historically, April has experienced rain and a temperature between 35 and 50 degrees on 20 days. Also, historically, the month of April has had a temperature between 35 and 50 degrees on 25 days. You have scheduled a golf tournament for April 12. If the temperature is between 35 and 50 degrees on that day, what will be the probability that the players will get wet

Answers

Final answer:

If the temperature on April 12 is between 35 and 50 degrees, the probability that it will rain, based on historical data, is 20/25, which simplifies to 4/5 or an 80% chance.

Explanation:

The question asks about the probability of rain given a specific temperature range. If historically April experiences rain on 20 days with temperatures between 35 and 50 degrees, and there are 25 days in April with temperatures in that range, one can assume these temperatures are a prerequisite for rain. If it is between 35 and 50 degrees on April 12, the probability that it will rain on that day can be calculated by dividing the number of rainy days within that temperature range (20 days) by the total number of days with that temperature range (25 days).

Thus, the probability that it will rain is 20/25, which simplifies to 4/5 or 0.80. Therefore, there is an 80% chance that the players will get wet during the golf tournament if the temperature is between 35 and 50 degrees.

a..Not work
b. Work in all circumstances
c. None of the above

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Not work.

Explanation:

The case proposes having sales agents request managers for discount thresholds every time a salesperson is trying to give customers promotions since there is only one source of information. It will be a better idea to have a set threshold for every product offered in the store so sales agents would know the limits of prices they can offer as discounts.  

Thus, the idea of requesting managers for discounts in every sale is unlikely to work.

Wimpy Inc. produces and sells a single product. The selling price of the product is $155.00 per unit and its variable cost is $62.00 per unit. The fixed expense is $341,460 per month. The break-even in monthly dollar sales is closest to_____________.a. $853,650b. $512,190c. $569,100d. $341,460

Answers

Answer:

Option c. $569,100

Explanation:

At the break-event the profit is zero, or the total costs equal the revenue.

1. Revenue

Revenue, R(x), is the product of the price by the number of units sold (x).

R(x) = $155.00x

2. Cost

The cos, C(x) is the sum of the fixed costs and the variable cost. The variable cost is the product of the variable cost per unit and the number of units sold:

C(x) = $341,460 + $62.00x

3. Break-even

Make the equation R(x) = C(x) and solve:

341,460 + 62x = 155xx = 341,460/93x = 6,442.64 units ≈ 6,442.64 units

4. Calculate the revenue with 6,442.64 units:

R(6,442.64) = 155(6,442.64) = $569,100

The real risk-free rate is 2.25%. Inflation is expected to be 2.5% this year and 4.25% during the next 2 years. Assume that the maturity risk premium is zero. What is the yield on 2-year Treasury securities

Answers

Answer:

yield on 2 year treasury = 5.63 %

Explanation:

given data

real risk-free rate = 2.25 %

Inflation rate year 1 = 2.5 %

Inflation rate year 2 = 4.25 %

solution

we get here average inflation rate is

average inflation rate = [tex]\frac{2.5+4.25}{2}[/tex]   ...........1

average inflation rate = 3.38 %

so here yield on 2 year treasury

yield on 2 year treasury = real risk-free rate + average inflation rate + MRP   ...............2

yield on 2 year treasury = 2.25 % + 3.38 % + 0%

yield on 2 year treasury = 5.63 %

To create the T-account balance sheet, we list the bank's reserves, loans, and government bonds as assets, and the deposits as liabilities. Subtracting the liabilities from the assets, we find the net worth to be $220.

Explanation:

To set up a T-account balance sheet for the bank, we must list the bank's assets on one side and the liabilities and net worth (equity) on the other. The assets of the bank include its reserves and any loans it has made or government bonds it has purchased. The liabilities are primarily the deposits from customers. Net worth is calculated by subtracting total liabilities from total assets.

Bank's T-Account Balance Sheet:

Assets:

Reserves: $50Loans: $500Government Bonds: $70

Liabilities:

Deposits: $400

To calculate the bank's net worth, subtract the total liabilities from the total assets:

Total Assets = Reserves + Loans + Government Bonds = $50 + $500 + $70 = $620

Total Liabilities = Deposits = $400

Net Worth = Total Assets - Total Liabilities = $620 - $400 = $220

Zephron Music purchased inventory for $4,400 and also paid a $260 freight bill. Zephron Music returned 25​% of the goods to the seller and later took a 1​% purchase discount. Assume Zephron Music uses a perpetual inventory system. What is Zephron Music​'s final cost of the inventory that it​ kept? (Round your answer to the nearest whole​ number.)

Answers

Answer:

Cost of the inventory kept by Zephron Music is $3495

Explanation:

Zephron Music purchased inventory for $4,400 and also paid a $260 freight bill

Inventory $4660 (debit)

Trade Payable $ 4400 (credit)

Bank $260 (credit)

Recognise an Asset - Inventory and De-recognise asset - Bank

Zephron Music returned 25​% of the goods to the seller, took a 1​% purchase discount

Trade Payable $1212

Inventory $1165 (credit)

Discount Received $47 (credit)

Therefore Inventory Balance = $4660-1165 = $3495

Final answer:

Zephron Music’s final cost of the inventory that it kept is calculated by adding freight charges to the initial purchase cost, subtracting the cost of returned goods, and applying a purchase discount before rounding to the nearest whole number, resulting in $3,524.

Explanation:

To calculate Zephron Music’s final cost of the inventory kept after purchasing, returning a portion, and receiving a purchase discount, we follow these steps:

Start with the initial inventory cost which is $4,400.Add the freight charges of $260 to the initial cost to get the total cost before returns and discounts.Calculate 25% of the initial inventory cost to find out the cost of goods returned and subtract it from the total cost.Lastly, calculate a 1% purchase discount on the remaining cost after returns and subtract it to get the final cost of kept inventory.

Performing these calculations we have:

Total cost before returns and discounts: $4,400 + $260 = $4,660.Value of returned goods: 25% of $4,400 = $1,100.Cost after returns: $4,660 - $1,100 = $3,560.1% discount on $3,560: $35.60.Final cost of inventory kept: $3,560 - $35.60 = $3,524.40 which is rounded to $3,524.

Three stocks have share prices of $37, $115, and $85 with total market values of $540 million, $490 million, and $290 million, respectively. If you were to construct a price-weighted index of the three stocks, what would be the index value?

Answers

Answer:

Index value is $79

Explanation:

Index value calculation comes from the prices of the underlying holdings. Most indices have values based on market-cap weighting, revenue-weighting, float-weighting, and fundamental-weighting.

For index calculations, weighted average mathematics is used as values are derived from a weighted average calculation of the value of the total portfolio. As such, price-weighted indexes will be more greatly impacted by changes in holdings with the highest price, market cap weighted indexes will be most greatly impacted by changes in the largest stocks, and so on depending on the weighting characteristics.

Price index = average of share prices

Price index = [tex]\frac{37+115+85}{3}=\frac{237}{3} =79[/tex]

Price index = $79

The index value of a price-weighted index made up of three stocks with prices of $37, $115, and $85 is calculated by summing the prices and dividing by the number of stocks, resulting in an index value of $79.

To construct a price-weighted index of the three stocks with share prices of $37, $115, and $85, you would first sum the prices of the stocks. The formula for a price-weighted index is the sum of the stock prices divided by the number of stocks, which in this case is 3.

Sum of stock prices = $37 + $115 + $85 = $237

Then, you divide this sum by the number of stocks to get the index value:

Index value = $237 / 3 = $79

Therefore, the index value for these three stocks would be $79.

Explanation: Collectivism values the group over individuals belonging to the group. In cultures where collectivism is the norm, individuals tend to want to conform to the group expectations. Also, it is common for individuals in collectivist societies to define themselves as belonging to a group than as individuals so groups are a way of identifying themselves.

When ABC car wash opened its doors at 9 AM, there were already 10 cars waiting in line (first come first serve). New cars arrive at the average rate of 20 cars per hour. The car wash can wash the car at the average rate of 15 cars per hour. If a new car arrives at 10 AM, how many hours should this car expect to wait before it is washed

Answers

Answer:

The car that arrives at 10 AM will have to wait for at least 1 hour before it is washed.

Explanation:

First of all, let us lay out the important points:

at 9 AM; 10 cars were already waiting

arrival rate = 20 cars per hour

wash rate = 15 cars per hour.

New car arrives at 10 AM

From the statements above, if 20 cars arrive every hour, it can be inferred that between 9 AM to 10 AM, the number of new cars that arrive = 20 cars.

But remember that before the car was opened, 10 cars were already waiting in line, therefore the total number of cars that arrived between 9 AM and 10 AM = 20 + 10 = 30 cars.

We are also told that the rate of wash of the cars are; 15 cars every hour. Therefore between 9 AM and 10 AM which is 1 hour, 15 out of 30 cars were washed, leaving 15 more cars unwashed. To wash this 15 remaining cars, another hour will pass, so by 11 AM, the cars that arrived between 9 AM and 10 AM will be completely washed. hence the car that arrived at 10 AM, will wait till 11 AM in order to be washed, which is a wait time of 1 hour.

Final answer:

A new car arriving at the ABC car wash at 10 AM, given the existing backlog and the rates of arrival and servicing, should expect to wait about 4 hours before it is washed.

Explanation:

Calculating Waiting Time for a Car Wash

When ABC car wash opened at 9 AM, there were already 10 cars waiting. New cars arrive at an average rate of 20 cars per hour, and the car wash can handle an average rate of 15 cars per hour. For a new car arriving at 10 AM, to calculate its expected waiting time, we must consider both the initial backlog and the rate of incoming cars vs. the car wash rate.

By 10 AM, in one hour, the car wash would have serviced 15 of the initial 10 cars, clearing the initial queue and starting on cars that have arrived since opening. However, during that hour, 20 new cars have arrived, creating a backlog. This backlog continues to grow every hour since the arrival rate (20 cars/hour) is higher than the service rate (15 cars/hour).

The difference in arrival and service rates is 5 cars/hour. The car arriving at 10 AM is effectively the 20th car in line at that moment. We must calculate how long it will take to clear the queue ahead, considering the growing backlog. It requires solving the equation for when the service rate will catch up to the arriving car's position in the queue.

To find the exact waiting time:

Service rate deficit: 5 cars/hour.

Queue position of new arrival: 20th.

Hours to service 20 cars at a deficit of 5 cars/hour = 20 / 5 = 4 hours.

Thus, a car arriving at 10 AM should expect to wait 4 hours before being serviced.

Deciding to Buy. Dave and Diane Starr of New Orleans, Louisiana, both of whom are in their late 20s, currently are renting an unfurnished two-bedroom apartment for $1,200 per month, plus $230 for utilities and $34 for insurance. They have found a condominium they can buy for $170,000 with a 20 percent down payment and a 30-year, 6.5 percent mortgage. Principal and interest payments are estimated at $860 per month, with property taxes amounting to $150 per month and a homeowner's insurance premium of $900 per year. Closing costs are estimated at $4,200. The monthly homeowners association fee is $275, and utility costs are estimated at $240 per month. The Starrs have a combined income of $90,000 per year, with take-home pay of $5,800 per month. They are in the 25 percent tax bracket, pay $225 per month on an installment loan (ten payments left), and have $39,000 in savings and investments outside of their retirement accounts. (d) Available financial information suggests that mortgage rates might increase over the next several months. If the Starrs wait until the rates increase 1/2 of 1 percent, how much more will they spend on their monthly mortgage payment

Answers

Answer:

Total cost of house is $170,000

Total loan to be taken = 170,000 x (1 - 0.20) = $136,000

Current annual Interest rates = 6.5%, current monthly interest rate = 6.5% / 12= 0.5417%

number of monthly periods = 30 * 12 = 360

Monthly installment (payment) on loan = $860 (859.6)

If interest rate increases by 0.5% to 7%, Monthly interest rate = 7%/12 = 0.583%

using excel formula,

Monthly installment for new monthly interest rate of 0.583% =PMT(0.583%,360,-136000,0)

New Monthly payment = $904.8

Increase in monthly mortgage payment = 904.8 - 859.6

Increase in monthly mortgage payment = $45.2

They will have around $45 additionally on monthly mortgage payment if interest increase by 0.5% to 7%

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Calculation of items needed for construction of budget:

During May, the company’s activity was actually 240 diving-hours. So all items should be calculated with 240 diving-hours instead of 250.

Revenue = Revenue per diving hour* Diving hours = 440*240 = $105,600

Wages and salaries = $11,800+$128*240 = $42,520

Supplies = $3*240 = $720

Equipment rental = $2100 + $22*240 = $7380

Miscellaneous = $530 + $1.48*240 = $885

A clothing retail company is deciding whether to use a traditional marketing research project approach or dive into a CRM system approach to guide their new year’s marketing strategy. Why should it use a CRM system approach?

Answers

Final answer:

A clothing retail company should opt for a CRM system over a traditional marketing research approach as it provides real-time data analytics, enables effective customer segmentation, and offers scalability and flexibility to adapt to market changes.

Explanation:

A clothing retail company considering whether to use a traditional marketing research project approach or implement a CRM system should lean towards the latter for several reasons. Firstly, a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system provides real-time data and analytics which can guide more informed decisions. This system can track customer behavior, preferences, and interactions with the brand across multiple channels, providing a holistic view of the customer journey. Secondly, a CRM system enhances the ability to segment customers based on varied criteria, facilitating more targeted and personalized marketing strategies. Using detailed customer profiles, the company can tailor their communications and promotions to meet specific customer needs. Lastly, CRM systems are designed for scalability and flexibility, enabling the company to easily adapt to changes in the market or in customer behavior without the need for starting new research projects from scratch. This adaptability is crucial in today's fast-paced retail environment in which trends and consumer preferences can shift rapidly. Overall, a CRM system can offer a dynamic and comprehensive approach to crafting a marketing strategy that is responsive to customers' evolving demands.

A trader buys two March futures contracts on frozen orange juice. Each contract is for the delivery of 15,000 pounds. The current futures price is 136 cents per pound, the initial margin is $1,960 per contract, and the maintenance margin is $1,400 per contract. What price change would lead to a margin call

Answers

Answer:

3.73 cents

Explanation:

Margin call occurs when the account loses more than $ 560  ($ 1960 - $ 1400).

The change in price that will lead to a margin call = Y cent × 15000 pounds = $ 560

Y cents = $ 560 / 15000 = 3.73 cents  

the future price must drop more than 3.73 cents from 136 cents to below 132.3 cents

Suppose you are interested in selling your home and would like to clear a net value of $300,000.

If you have agreed to pay your broker a commission of 5.5% (no matter who ultimately is responsible for finding the buyer), what price must you sell the home for in order to meet your net profit (rounded to the nearest dollar)?A. $282,540
B. $300,000
C. $316,500
D. $317,460

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

$317,460 (D.)

Explanation:

At the end of sales, after deducting the 5.5% commission of broker fee, the amount left as net value = $300,000. It can also be said that the total amount will be $300,000 + 5.5% of the total amount.

Let the price which the home is to be sold be "X"

From the statement above, the equation below can be written:

$300,000 + (5.5% of X) = X

X - (5.5% of X) = $300,000

Note that 5.5% of X = 5.5/100 × X = 0.055X

∴ X - (5.5% of X) = $300,000

= X - 0.055X = 300,000

0.945X = 300,000

X = [tex]\frac{300,000}{0.945} = 317,460.31[/tex]

= $317,460 (to the nearest dollars)

Final answer:

To clear a net value of $300,000 after paying a 5.5% commission, the home must be sold for about $317,460, which is the amount obtained by dividing the desired net by 0.945, accounting for the retained percentage after commission.

Explanation:

To determine the selling price of the home to clear a net value of $300,000 after paying a 5.5% broker commission, you need to set up an equation to account for the commission. Let's call the selling price P. The equation to represent this scenario is P - 0.055P = $300,000. Solving this equation for P will give us the required selling price to achieve the net value desired.

First, we can rewrite the equation as P(1 - 0.055) = $300,000. Doing the math, we get P = $300,000 / 0.945, which equals approximately $317,460. Therefore, the home must be sold for about $317,460 to meet the net profit after commission.

Following are the calculations to get the precise answer:

First, we calculate the percentage that the homeowner will receive after commission, which is 100% - 5.5% = 94.5%.

We then express the percentage as a decimal for calculation: 94.5% = 0.945.

Finally, we divide the desired net amount by the percentage the homeowner keeps: $300,000 / 0.945 = $317,460.05, which rounds to $317,460.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. $317,460.

The central bank of the fictitious country "Alpha" raises bank reserves by $100. What effect will the increase in bank reserves have on the money supply in each of the following situations: a. If the banking system is a 100% reserve banking system, the money supply will increase by $ . b. The banking system is a fractional reserve banking system with a desired reserve deposit ratio of 0.25, the money supply will increase by $ .

Answers

Final answer:

In a 100% reserve banking system, the money supply will increase by the same amount as the increase in bank reserves. In a fractional reserve banking system with a desired reserve deposit ratio, the money supply can be calculated using the money multiplier.

Explanation:

In a 100% reserve banking system, the money supply will increase by the same amount as the increase in bank reserves. So, if the central bank of Alpha raises bank reserves by $100, the money supply will also increase by $100.



In a fractional reserve banking system with a desired reserve deposit ratio of 0.25, the money supply can be calculated using the money multiplier. The money multiplier is the reciprocal of the reserve deposit ratio. In this case, the money multiplier would be 1/0.25 = 4. So, if the central bank of Alpha raises bank reserves by $100, the money supply will increase by $100 x 4 = $400.

Kevin is a retired teacher who lives in Philadelphia and teaches tennis lessons for extra cash. At a wage of $40 per hour, he is willing to teach 7 hours per week. At $50 per hour, he is willing to teach 10 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Kelvin's labor supply between the wages of $40 and $50 per hour is approximately, which means that Kelvin's supply of labor over this wage range is:_______.

Answers

Kelvin's supply of labor over this wage range is 3.80

Explanation:

This is Price elasticity supply issue, and wages / hours are independent variables.

Price elasticity of supply tests the response to the supply of a product or service following a shift in its market price. The supply of a good will increase as its prices rise according to basic economic principles. On the other hand, when its price declines, goodwill supplies decline

So, PES ( Kevin's labor) = {(10-7)/[(10+7)/2)} /{(50-40)/[(50+40)/2]}

                                       = 24.75/6.5 = 3.80
