CI = ( 22 - 19.8 ) / 3 * 0.5
CI = 1.47 approximately.
29. Randolph is a 30 percent partner in the RD Partnership. On January 1, RD distributes $22,500 cash and inventory with a fair value of $56,000 (inside basis of $28,000) to Randolph in complete liquidation of his interest. RD has no liabilities at the date of the distribution. Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625. What is the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution
Answer: $3125 capital loss
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, we should note that RD Partnership distributes $22500 cash and inventory with inside basis of $28000.
Since Randolph's basis in his RD Partnership interest is $53,625, the amount and character of Randolph's gain or loss on the distribution will be:
= ($22500 + $28000) - $53625
= $50500 - $53625
= -$3125
Therefore, there's a capital loss of $3125
Chen Company's Small Motor Division manufactures a number of small motors used in household and office appliances. The Household Division of Chen then assembles and packages such items as blenders and juicers. Both divisions are free to buy and sell any of their components internally or externally. The following costs relate to small motor LN233 on a per unit basis.
Fixed cost per unit $5.20
Variable cost per unit $10.81
Selling price per unit $34.55
Assuming that the Small Motor Division has excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of small motor LN233 to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Minimum transfer price $ per unit
Assuming that the Small Motor Division does not have excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of the small motor to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. If the small motor division has excess capacity,
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost
Variable cost per unit = $10.81
Add:
Opportunity cost per unit = $0.00 (Because the company has sufficient excess capacity)
Minimum transfer price = $10.81
2. If the small motor division has excess capacity,
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost
Variable cost per unit = $10.81
Add:
Opportunity cost per unit = $23.74 (As the company has no excess capacity, contribution lost is the opportunity cost)
Minimum transfer price = $34.55
N.B
Contribution lost = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
= $34,55 - $10.8 = $23.74

The Mighty Music Company produces and sells a desktop speaker for $100. The company has the capacity to produce 50,000 speakers each period. At capacity, the costs assigned to each unit are as follows: Unit level costs $ 45 Product level costs $ 15 Facility level costs $ 5 The company has received a special order for 500 speakers. If this order is accepted, the company will have to spend $15,000 on additional costs. Assuming that no sales to regular customers will be lost if the order is accepted, at what selling price will the company be indifferent between accepting and rejecting the special order
Answer:
$75
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what selling price will the company be indifferent between accepting and rejecting the special order
Using this formula
Selling price between accepting and rejecting the special order= ( Additional cost ÷ Units sold number) + Unit level Cost
Let plug in the formula
Selling price between accepting and rejecting the special order= ( $15,000 ÷ 500 ) + $45
Selling price between accepting and rejecting the special order= $30 + $45
Selling price between accepting and rejecting the special order= $75
Therefore The selling price that the company will be indifferent between accepting and rejecting the special order is $75
Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. More of Project A's cash flows occur in the later years. b. We must have information on the cost of capital in order to determine which project has the larger early cash flows. c. The crossover rate, i.e., the rate at which Projects A and B have the same NPV, is greater than either project's IRR. d. The NPV profile graph is inconsistent with the statement made in the problem. e. More of Project B's cash flows occur in the later years.
Answer: a. More of Project A's cash flows occur in the later years.
Explanation:
When a project has its cashflows occurring in later years, the NPV will be less because the discount rate would have a greater period to discount it in as opposed to cashflows that occur more recently which would receive less discounting from the discount rate.
As a result of Project A having more distant cashflows, the discount rate discounted its cash flows more which is why higher rates led to its NPV being zero because those higher rates got to discount it over a longer period.

Supposed that the daily wage for miners is $110 and that of the muckers is $90 per day. Find the long run cost function for US Iron & Steel Co. (x teams produce 10x tons of iron ore per day.)
Answer:
$200 to produce 10x ton of iron ore
Explanation:
The cost for one day to produce 10x tons of iron ore is calculated as follows.
1 miner and 1 mucker work together to make 10x ton of iron ore where,
1 miners wage = $110
1 mucker wage = $90
This makes a total of $200 to produce 10x ton of iron ore.
The costs in the long run will remain same because the wages are fixed if the wages are negotiable or varies then in the long run the cost function can differ.
Swifty Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2020 of $1,453,700 and retained earnings of $5,392,600 at December 31, 2020. Swifty later discovered that its ending inventories at December 31, 2019 and 2020, were overstated by $102,820 and $37,880, respectively. Determine the corrected amounts for 2020 cost of goods sold and December 31, 2020, retained earnings.
Answer:
Corrected cost of goods sold $1,388,760
Corrected retained earnings $5,354,720
Explanation:
First, we need to determine corrected cost of goods sold
Corrected cost of goods sold at December 31, 2020
= Beginning inventory - Purchases - Ending inventory
= $1,453,700 - [$102,820 - $37,880]
= $1,453,700 - $64,930
= $1,388,760
The December 31,2020 corrected retained earnings would be computed as;
= Ending retained earnings - Overstated ending inventories at December 31, 2020
= $5,392,600 - $37,880
= $5,354,720

b) Based on the information given 2,200,000 shares were issued
c) Calculation for many shares are outstanding
Outstanding shares= (2,200,000 issued-30,000 in treasury)
Outstanding shares=2,170,000 shares
d) Calculation for the balance of the Common Stock account
Balance of the Common Stock account = ($1 × 2,200,000 shares
Balance of the Common Stock account=$2,200,000
9. Stabilization Suppose the US educational system improves, making workers more productive. If the federal reserve is trying to stabilize the price level in response, they should A. do nothing, because prices will not change anyhow. B. do nothing, because prices cannot be prevented from changing in the long run C. sell bonds in open market operations. D. lower the reserve requirement. E. increase the discount rate F. Raise taxes. G. Increase government spending.
Answer:
d
Explanation:
If workers become more productive, the supply curve shifts rightward. As a result prices would fall. In a bid to stabilise price, the federal reserve would conduct an expansionary monetary policy to increase money supply in the economy
Expansionary monetary policy : these are polices taken in order to increase money supply. When money supply increases, aggregate demand increases. reducing reserve requirement and open market purchase are ways of carrying out expansionary monetary policy
Increasing discount rate and selling bonds are examples of contractionary monetary policies. Contractionary monetary policy : these are policies taken to reduce money supply.
Raising tax is an example of contractionary fiscal policy
Increasing government spending is an example of expansionary fiscal policy

Barbara, a product manager at an organic soap manufacturing company, is supposed to interview a candidate for a new job opening in her department. The candidate arrives late to the interview, and therefore Barbara assumes that he will be tardy and uninterested in his job as well. Despite the fact that the candidate meets all the job requirements, Barbara rejects the candidate. Which of the following interview errors has Barbara most likely made?
A. The first-impression error.
B. The similarity error.
C. The contrast error.
D. The non-relevancy error.
Answer:
A. The first-impression error.
Explanation:
It is correct to say that Barbara probably made the first-impression error in the interview, because this error occurs when there are initial judgments about a candidate in the interview, it was what happened when Barbara thought that the candidate would be disinterested at work due to his late to the interview even the candidate meeting all the requirements of the position.
This error can be based on positive and negative judgments and can directly influence a job hiring.

T or F: During the credit crisis of 2008, investors around the worls were fearful about the collapse of real estate markets, shaky stock markets, and illiquidity of several securities in the US and several other nations. The demand for US treasury bonds increased, which led to a rise in their price and a decline in their yields.
2. T or F: When the ecnomy is weakening, the Fed is likely to increase short-term interest rates.
3. T or F: When the Fed increses the money supply, short-term interest rates tend to decline.
4. T of F: the Federal Reserve Board has significant influence over the level of economic activity, inflation, and interest rates in the US.

Because of recent increases in gasoline prices, the car dealership has noticed a reduced demand for its SUVs, vans, and trucks.
Required:
a. Compute the total cost of the entire inventory.
b. Determine whether each inventory item would be reported at cost or market. Multiply the quantity of each inventory item by the appropriate cost or market amount and place the total in the "Lower-of-Cost-or-Market" column. Then determine the total for that column.
c. Compare your answers in Requirement 1 and Requirement 2 and then record any necessary adjustment to write down inventory from cost to market value.

Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did over the previous 12 months. Today, December 31, you just received your salary of $58,000 and you plan to spend all of it. However, you want to start saving for retirement beginning next year. You have decided that one year from today you will begin depositing 3 percent of your annual salary in an account that will earn 11 percent per year. Your salary will increase at 6 percent per year throughout your career.
Required: How much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?
Answer:
The amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.
Explanation:
This can be determined using the formula for calculating the future value of growing annuity as follows:
FV = M * (((1 + r)^n - (1 + g)^n) / (r - g)) ...................................... (1)
Where
FV = Future value or the amount on the date of retirement = ?
M = First annual deposit = Annual salary * Deposit percentage = $58,000 * 3% = $1,740
r = annual interest rate = 11%, or 0.11
g = salary growth rate = 6%, or 0.06
n = number of years = 40 years
Substituting all the values into equation (1), we have:
FV = $1,740 * (((1 + 0.11)^40 - (1 + 0.06)^40) / (0.11 - 0.06))
FV = $1,740 * 1,094.30298736951
FV = $1,904,087.20
Therefore, the amount you will have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today is $1,904,087.20.
Ronnie operates a lawn-care service. On each day, the cost of mowing the first lawn is $15, the cost of mowing the second lawn is $25, and the cost of mowing the third lawn is $40. His producer surplus on the first three lawns of the day is $100. If Ronnie charges all customers the same price for lawn mowing, that price is a. $20. b. $60. c. $80. d. $180.
Answer:
b. $60
Explanation:
Produced surplus = Price producer is able to sell - Price producer would be willing to sell
Price the producer is able to sell = Producer surplus + Price producer would be willing to sell
= $100 + ($15 + $25 + $40)
= $180 for 3 lawn
Therefore, if Ronnie charges are customers the same price for lawn mowing, that price is

(c) Identifiable assets test. W and X
Explanation:
Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.
The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
Note: See the attached excel file for the determination of the operating segments which are reportable (in bold red color).
Note that the criterion is that a segment is reportable if it contains an amount that is greater than 10% of the total amount. Otherwise, it is nonreportable.
Based on this criterion, we have the following from the attached excel file:
Reportable Segments
(a) Revenue test. W and Y
(b) Operating profit (loss) test. W, X and Y
(c) Identifiable assets test. W and X
Assume that a state government currently provides no child-care subsidies to working single parents, but it now wants to adopt a plan that will encourage labor force participation among single parents. Suppose that child-care costs are hourly, and suppose the government adopts a child-care subsidy that pays $3 per hour for each hour the parent works, up to 8 hours per day. Draw a current budget constraint (net of child-care costs) for an assumed single mother and then draw in the new constraint. Discuss the likely effects on labor force participation and hours of work.
Answer:
The line on the graph will be parallel to the pre-subsidy line and the new constraint will then be equal to the points connecting the two lines.
Explanation:
The subsidy by government to single parents is $3 per hour for up to 8 hours. The total of subsidy will be $16 for each day. The labor force who were not receiving the subsidy before had steep indifference curve but now few workers will find utility maximization with flatter indifference curve so the workers will join the subsidy program.

Media outlets often have websites that provide in-depth coverage of news and events. Portions of these websites are restricted to members who pay a monthly subscription to gain access to exclusive news and commentary. These websites typically offer a free trial period to introduce viewers to the website. Assume that during a recent fiscal year, one outlet spent $2,368,800 on a promotional campaign for its website that offered two free months of service for new subscribers. In addition, assume the following information:
Number of months an average new customer stays with the service (including the two free months) 22 months
Revenue per month per customer subscription $21
Variable cost per month per customer subscription $7
Determine the number of new customer accounts needed to break even on the cost of the promotional campaign. In forming your answer:
a. treat the cost of the promotional campaign as a fixed cost
b. treat the revenue less variable cost per account for the subscription period as the unit contribution margin.
Answer: 8,905 customers
Explanation:
Breakeven = Fixed cost / Contribution Margin
Fixed cost = $2,368,800
Contribution margin = Revenue - Variable cost
Revenue will be for 20 months because there were 2 free months:
= 21 * 20
= $420 per customer
Variable cost = 7 * 22
= $154
Contribution margin = 420 - 154
= $266
Breakeven = 2,368,800 / 266
= 8,905 customers
Suppose you have to wait in line to purchase a soft drink at a Missouri State - Tulsa football game. The drink costs one dollar. While waiting in line, you hear the crowd roar as someone scores a touchdown. While running back to your seat, you fall and spill your drink on another spectator. What is your opportunity cost for the drink?
A. the cost of the drink plus the lost enjoyment of not seeing Missouri State score another touchdown (it couldn't have been Tulsa)
B. the cost of the drink, the lost enjoyment of not seeing the Missouri State touchdown, your thirst (you didn't get a drink), and the discomfort (to the other spectator) of sitting in the sun with wet, sticky clothing
C. the lost enjoyment of not seeing the Missouri State touchdown, your thirst (you didn't get a drink), and the discomfort (to the other spectator) of sitting in the sun with wet, sticky clothing
D. the lost enjoyment of not seeing the Missouri State touchdown, your thirst (you didn't get a drink), and your discomfort (assuming the other spectator responded by throwing his drink in your lap) of sitting in the sun with wet, sticky clothing
What effect will firms entering have on the market price? When firms enter , A. the marginal cost of production will decrease , decreasing price. B. market supply will increase , decreasing price. C. market demand will decrease , decreasing price. D. the average total cost of production will decrease , decreasing price. E. market supply will decrease , decreasing price.
Answer:
b
Explanation:
when firms enter into an industry, there are more firms competing for customers. This would shift the demand curve to the right as supply increases. An increase in supply would lead to a reduction in price.
If firms leave the industry, there would be a reduction in supply and price would increase

Capalbo Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated labor-hours for the upcoming year. At the beginning of the most recently completed year, the company estimated the laborhours for the upcoming year at 52,000 labor-hours. The estimated variable manufacturing overhead was $2.78 per labor-hour and the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was $1,192,360. The actual labor-hours for the year turned out to be 52,600 labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to: A. $2.78. B. $25.45. C. $25.71. D. $22.93.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $25.71 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
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= (1,192,360 / 52,000) + 2.78
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 22.93 + 2.78
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $25.71 per direct labor hour
