Answer:
a. 5
b. 5
1B. 8%
Explanation:
a. MV = PY
Money Supply * Velocity of money = Price level * Real GDP
100 * V = 5 * 100
100V = 500
V = 5
b. Velocity = 5
It will not change because the money supply for both questions is the same = $100.
1.B. Change in real money balances = 8%
The change in real money balances will be the same as the GDP growth rate if velocity is constant.

Tracey does not have insurance coverage. She presents to NSA Memorial Hospital for treatment of what she believes is a severe cold. When she arrives at NSA Memorial Hospital she is triaged and told to wait in the waiting room for treatment.
1. What are the next steps NSA Memorial Hospital must take to comply with EMTALA?
2. What happens if they determine Tracey has an Emergency Medical Condition?
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
1.
To comply with EMTALA (Emergency Medical Care and Labor Act), NSA Memorial Hospital should take the following measures once Tracey has been triaged and told to wait in the waiting room for treatment:
Within the scope of the hospital's structure and ability for treating emergencies, a medical screening test should be arranged. This includes the emergency department's access to supplemental resources. This should be done to rule out the possibility of a medical emergency.
2.
If an emergency medical condition is found in the hospital, the following steps should be taken in accordance with EMTALA.
If medication to stabilize the condition is beyond the reach and capability of the facility, it should begin immediately, or the patient should be moved to another hospital with the appropriate treatment facilities.
The hospital should strictly follow EMTALA's guidelines and restrictions when moving the patient, which states that the condition of transfer must be purely medical necessity.
Regardless of whether the patient has insurance coverage or not, EMTALA enforcement is required. To summarize, the hospital should comply with EMTALA.
Select screening to determine whether an emergency situation exists.
Stabilize the situation with care.
If possible, make arrangements for a suitable move.
Accept the move if it is necessary.

Village Bank has $310 million worth of assets with a duration of 12 years and liabilities worth $248 million with a duration of five years. In the interest of hedging interest rate risk, Village Bank is contemplating a macrohedge with interest rate T-bond futures contracts now selling for 104-20 (30nds). The T-bond underlying the futures contract has a duration of eight years. If the spot and futures interest rates move together, how many futures contracts must Village Bank sell to fully hedge the balance sheet? (
Answer:
2129 futures contracts to be sold
Explanation:
Asset worth = $310 million
Asset duration = 12 years
liabilities = $248 million
Liabilities duration = 5 years
T-bond futures contracts = 104-20 (30nds)
% of assets = 310 / 248 =
Determine how many futures contracts Village Bank will sell to fully hedge the balance
Number of Contracts = -[Assets * (Asset Duration – (Liabilities Duration * % of Assets) / (Duration * Contract Value)]
= - [ 310 * ( 12 - ( 5 * (310/248)) / ( 8 * ( 104 + ( 20/30)) ]
= - [ 310 * ( 12 - 6.25 ) / ( 8 * 104.6667 ) ]
= - [ 310 * 5.75 / 837.3336 ]
= - 2.12878 * 1000
= 2128.78 ≈ 2129 ( number of futures contracts to be sold )

A leading beverage company sells its signature soft drink brand in vending machines for $0.87 per 12 oz. can. A vending machine has monthly fixed costs of space rental, energy consumption, and capital depreciation of $146. Variable cost for a can of soda is $0.48. The more pessimistic operations manager was concerned about rising costs and asked the sales manager, if fixed costs increase to $190 per month, and the variable costs increase by $.10 due to rising sugar costs, what is the new breakeven volume in units at the original price
Answer:
655
Explanation:
Breakeven quantity are the number of units produced and sold at which net income is zero
Breakeven quantity = fixed cost / price – variable cost per unit
$190 / ( 0.87 - 0.58) = 655.2 = 655 to the nearest whole number

Job specialization can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves the ability of employees working in an organization to develop specific skills, knowledge, great expertise or professionalism and experience to perform their duties, tasks or job functions effectively and efficiently.
In order to gain the requisite skills, expertise and knowledge for job specialization, it is very important for the employees to have undergone an extensive training and a good number of years in work experience.
The primary purpose of job specialization is to increase efficiency and productivity because the employees are able to specialize in the use of specific tools (equipments) to accomplish their tasks, as well as limit the level of error or mistakes in the production process.
In Business management, method analysis can be defined as the study of the detailed process for the performance of a job i.e how a job is done. Thus, method analysis gives a detailed report on the tasks involved in the performance of a job and how they are to be done.
Basically, methods analysis is particularly valuable when it is used on jobs that:
1. Are high in labor content.
2. Are done frequently.
3. Are unsafe, tiring, unpleasant, and/or noisy.
The Clemson Company reported the following results last year for the manufacture and sale of one of its products known as a Tam.
Sales (6,500 Tams at $130 each) $845,000
Variable cost of sales 390,000
Variable distribution costs 65,000
Fixed advertising expense 275,000
Salary of product line manager 25,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead 145,000
Net loss ($55,000)
Clemson Company is trying to determine whether or not to discontinue the manufacture and sale of Tams. The operating results reported above for last year are expected to continue in the foreseeable future if the product is not dropped. The fixed manufacturing overhead represents the costs of production facilities and equipment that the Tam product shares with other product. Assume that discontinuing the Tam product would result in a $120,000 increase in the contribution margin of other product lines. How many Tams would have to be sold next year for the company to be as well off as if it?
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
According to the information above, there would be no sales if TAM is discontinued as there would be no cost traced to it safe for $145,000 for fixed manufacturing overhead.
We already know that the net operating loss was $55,000 the fixed manufacturing overhead of $145,000 would further increase the loss by $90,000
Contribution Margin and Contribution Margin Ratio
For a recent year, McDonald's company-owned restaurants had the following sales and expenses (in millions):
Sales $18,169.3
Food and packaging $ 6,129.7
Payroll 4,756.0
Occupancy (rent, depreciation, etc.) 4,402.6
General, selling, and administrative expenses 2,487.9
$17,776.2
Income from operations $ 393.1
Assume that the variable costs consist of food and packaging, payroll, and 40% of the general, selling, and administrative expenses.
a. What is McDonald's contribution margin? Round to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place).
b. What is McDonald's contribution margin ratio? Round to one decimal place.
c. How much would income from operations increase if same-store sales increased by $500 million for the coming year, with no change in the contribution margin ratio or fixed costs? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place).
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Variable food and packaging = $6,129.7
Variable payroll = $4,756.0
Variable general, selling and administrative expenses = 40% × $2,487.9 = $995.16
Fixed general, selling and administrative expenses = 60% × $2,487.9 = $1,492.74
Fixed occupancy = $4,402.6
Total fixed cost = $1,492.84 + $4,402.6 = $5,895.34
Total variable cost = Variable food and packaging + Variable payroll + Variable general, selling and administrative expenses
= $6,129.7 + $4,756 + $995.16
= $11,880.86
a. McDonald's contribution margin
= Sales - Variable cost
= $18,169.3 - $11,880.86
= $6,288.44
b. McDonald's contribution margin
= Contribution margin / Sales
= $6,288.44 / $18,169.3
= 34.61%
c. Increase in operating income
= $500 million × 34.71
= $173,050,000

NU YU announced today that it will begin paying annual dividends. The first dividend will be paid next year in the amount of $0.37 a share. The following dividends will be $0.42, $0.57, and $0.87 a share annually for the following three years, respectively. After that, dividends are projected to increase by 2.8 percent per year. How much are you willing to pay today to buy one share of this stock if your desired rate of return is 9 percent?
Answer:
P0 = $11.968577 rounded off to $11.97
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under DDM is,
P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
D1, D2, ... , Dn is the dividend expected in Year 1,2 and so on g is the constant growth rate in dividends r is the discount rate or required rate of return
P0 = 0.37 / (1+0.09) + 0.42 / (1+0.09)^2 + 0.57 / (1+0.09)^3 +
0.87 / (1+0.09)^4 + [(0.87 * (1+0.028) / (0.09 - 0.028)) / (1+0.09)^4]
P0 = $11.968577 rounded off to $11.97
One of the themes that came out of the survey responses is that employees take their responsibility of serving fresh, hot food quickly and helping customers find menu items that they will like very seriously. But most of the time, employees do not feel like the work they do is very important. According to the job characteristics theory, which of the following should you do to address this issue?
A. Improve employees' growth need strength.
B. Improve feedback.
C. Improve skill variety.
D. Improve task significance.
C. After carefully considering the most recent employee survey results, you decide that the core issue that you need to address to improve employee motivation is that employees do not seem to know how they are doing relative to what is expected of them. Knowing this, which critical psychological state will you be most targeting in your job redesign initiative?
A. Experienced responsibility for outcomes of the work.
B. Growth need strength.
C. Knowledge of the actual results of work activities.
D. Experienced meaningfulness of the work.
Answer:
D. Improve task significance.
C. Knowledge of the actual results of work activities.
Explanation:
1. In order to address this issue you should focus on improving task significance. Doing so will increase employee motivation as they will begin actually seeing that their work is important. Being able to visualize the consequences that your work has on others or in general is incredibly motivating in a work environment as it provides purpose to the otherwise mundane tasks.
2. In this case, you would need to target a redesign of Knowledge of the actual results of work activities. Employees need to be able to visualize or atleast hear feedback of how they are performing. This feedback will allow them to adjust their actions/performance and improve upon it. Without this feedback there is no way for the employees to improve as they have no baseline of what is exceptional behavior if they do not have data or an example to compare their performance to.
Hyper Color Company manufactures widgets. The following data is related to sales and production of the widgets for last year. Selling price per unit Variable manufacturing costs per unit Variable selling and administrative expenses per unit Fixed manufacturing overhead (in total) Fixed selling and administrative expenses (in total) Units produced during the year Units sold during year Using absorption costing, what is operating income for last year? (Round any intermediary calculations to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer: $24,000
Explanation:
Operating income under absorption costing:
= Sales - Cost of goods sold - Selling and admin expenses
Cost of goods sold = Variable production cost + Fixed production cost
= (61 * 1,000 units sold) + (32,000 / 1,500 units produced * 1,000 units sold)
= $82,333
Selling and admin expenses:
= Variable + Fixed
= (6 * 1,000) + 8,000
= $14,000
Operating income = (120 * 1,000) - 82,333 - 14,000
= $23,667
= $24,000

Answer:
a. reward system
b. Surface value
c. Perquisites
d. Compensation packages
Explanation:
Reward system encompasses the whole compensation packages for workers.
Base pay is the main determinant for other compensations.
Symbolic value refers to the representational value of a reward as opposed to the worth.
Compensation packages for various entities vary depending on the organization.
Indirect compensation is not directly linked to a job.
Perquisites refer to the benefits from employment.
Flexible reward system is not a fixed system, but one that flexes with other factors.
Participative pay system encourages workers' contribution in determining pay.
Surface value is the worth of a compensation to the recipient.
Incentive system refers to the employment structure that motivates employees to act in the best interest of the organization.

The auto repair shop of Quality Motor Company uses standards to control the labor time and labor cost in the shop.The standard labor cost for a motor tune-up is given below:
Standard Hours Standard Rate Standard Cost
Motor tune-up 2.50 $35.00 $87.50
The record showing the time spent in the shop last week on motor tune-ups has been misplaced. However, the shop supervisor recalls that 60 tune-ups were completed during the week, and the controller recalls the following variance data relating to tune-ups:
Labor rate variance $ 50 F
Labor spending variance $ 55 U
Required:
1. Determine the number of actual labor-hours spent on tune-ups during the week.
2. Determine the actual hourly rate of pay for tune-ups last week.
Answer:
Actual Quantity= 151.57
Actual Rate= $3.17
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard Hours 2.50
Standard Rate $35.00
Standard Cost $87.50
Number of tune-ups= 60
Labor rate variance $ 50 F
Labor spending variance $ 55 U
First, we need to calculate the actual number of hours. We need to use the direct labor efficiency variance:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
-55 = (60*2.5 - Actual Quantity)*35
-55 = 5,250 - 35Actual Quantity
35Actual Quantity = 5,305
Actual Quantity= 151.57
Now, the actual hourly rate. We need to use the direct labor rate variance formula:
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
50 = (3.5 - Actual Rate)*151.57
50= 530.5 - 151.57Actual Rate
151.57Actual Rate= 480.5
Actual Rate= $3.17

MECCS Inc. stock paid its annual dividends of $4.90 per share yesterday. The dividend is expected to decrease at a constant rate of 2.50 percent per year indefinitely. Investors require a rate of return of 8.60 percent on the stock. How much should one share of the stock be priced today
Answer: $43
Explanation:
The current stock price will be calculated as:
= Do(1 - g) / (Ke + g)
where,
Do = $ 4.90
g = 2.50%
Ke = 8.60%
Po = [4.90 - (1 - 0.025)] / [0.086 + 0.025]
Po = 4.7775 / 0.111
Po = $43
The price of one share of the stock today will be $43
During August, Boxer Company sells $354,000 in merchandise that has a one year warranty. Experience shows that warranty expenses average about 5% of the selling price. The warranty liability account has a credit balance of $11,600 before adjustment. Customers returned merchandise for warranty repairs during the month that used $8200 in parts for repairs. The entry to record the estimated warranty expense for the month is: Question 8 options: Debit Estimated Warranty Liability $8200; credit Warranty Expense $8200. Debit Estimated Warranty Liability $17,700; credit Warranty Expense $17,700. Debit Warranty Expense $6100; credit Estimated Warranty Liability $6100. Debit Warranty Expense $14,300; credit Estimated Warranty Liability $14,300. Debit Warranty Expense $17,700; credit Estimated Warranty Liability $17,700.
Answer:
Debit Warranty Expense $14,300
Credit Estimated Warranty Liability $14,300
Explanation:
With regards to the above, we are matching the warrant cost , which can be anytime in the future.
Expected warranty liability
= 5% of sales
= 5% × $354,000
= $17,700
Less;
Current balance
= $11,600 - $8,200
= $3,400
Adjustment
= $14,300
Here, the returned goods had a cost of $8,200 which is warranted against warrant liability, hence the balance reduces to $3,400

Harry was on the phone negotiating the terms of a contract for the purchase of ball caps containing his university's logo with All Logos, LLC. They had agreed on the quantity (1200) and price ($2/cap), but could not agree on the delivery date, so Harry hung up. A few days later, Harry received an invoice in the mail, billing him for the caps, and advising that they would be shipped in 30 days' time. Under the UCC, has a contract been formed?
Answer: d. No, a contract has not been formed, since Harry has not signed a contract for the goods.
Explanation:
The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) utilizes the Statute of Frauds which states that contracts for goods worth over $500 in value are to be signed for them to be valid.
The goods here are worth:
= 1,200 * 2
= $2,400
This contract is well worth over the $500 required for the contract to be signed which means that as Harry did not sign the contract, there is no contract.
