Answer:
Continuous or Discontinuous Functions
(a) The outdoor temperature as a function of longitude, latitude, and time is ---continuous--- . Small changes in longitude, latitude or time can produce ---continuous--- changes in temperature.
(b) Elevation (height above sea level) as a function of longitude, latitude, and time is ---continuous--- . Small changes in longitude, latitude, or time can produce ---continuous--- changes in elevation.
(c) The cost of a taxi ride as a function of distance traveled and time is usually ---continuous--- . Small changes in distance traveled or time can produce ---continuous--- changes in cost.
Explanation:
A continuous function does not experience discontinuities. Some human attributes like height, weight, temperature, and body colors are continuous variations. Discontinuous variables have distinct categories that are different. Examples are sex, blood group, etc. Discontinuous functions bear "either or" properties.

The Nite Lite Company manufactures small lamps and desk lamps. The following shows the activities per product:
Set-ups Inspections Assembly (DLH)
Small Lamps - 4,000 units 4,000 16,000 4,000
Desk Lamps - 8,000 units 16,000 8,000 24,000
Using the following information prepared by the Nite Lite Company, determine the total factory overhead rate to be charged to desk lamps.
Activity Pool Activity Base Budgeted Amount
Set-ups 20,000 $60,000
Inspections 24,000 $120,000
Assembly (DLH) 28,000 $420,000
a. $380,000
b. $184,000
c. $152,000
d. $448,000
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $448,000
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each activity:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Set-ups= 60,000/20,000= $3 per setup
Inspections= 120,000/24,000= $5 per inspection
Assembly (DLH)= 420,000/28,000= $15 per direct albor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Desk Lamps:
Set-ups= 3*16,000= $48,000
Inspections= 5*8,000= $40,000
Assembly (DLH)= 15*24,000= $360,000
Total overhead= $448,000
2. Jack sold a baseball card collection for $2,500 that he bought a year ago for $2,500. He says, "At least I didn't lose any money on my investment in this baseball card." His economist friend points out that in effect he did lose money because he could have received a 3 percent return on the $2,500, which is $75, if he had deposited the money in a bank. The economist's analysis in this case incorporates the idea of: A. opportunity costs among alternatives, which is $75 here. B. opportunity costs among alternatives, which is $2575 here. C. marginal costs that exceed marginal benefits. D. marginal benefits that exceed marginal costs.
Answer:
The economist's analysis in this case incorporates the idea of:
A. opportunity costs among alternatives, which is $75 here.
Explanation:
Jack's economist friend is right that Jack lost $75, which represents a 3% return on the $2,500 if Jack had invested it in a bank deposit instead of baseball card. The opportunity cost is, therefore, this potential benefit which Jack has missed or lost because of Jack's choice of investment.
Bill Buckely has split-limit 100/200/40 automobile liability insurance on his 2012 Subaru. Driving home from work in a snowstorm, he hit a Mercedes, slid into a guardrail, and knocked down a telephone pole. Damages to the Mercedes, the guardrail, and the telephone pole were $33,428, $7,422, and $12,041 respectively. How much will Bill's insurance company pay? How much will Bill be required to pay directly? Bill's insurance company will pay $nothing. (Round to the nearest dollar.) The amount Bill will be required to pay directly is $nothing. (Round to the nearest dollar.)
Answer:
Bill's insurance company will pay $40,000The amount Bill will be required to pay directly is $12,891Explanation:
A Split limit works thus;
The first figure which is 100 is the maximum amount that will be paid per one injured person.
The second figure is 200 and it is the maximum amount that will be paid out for all injured persons.
The third which is 40 is the maximum amount the insurance will pay out for property damage.
Bear in mind that all these figures are in thousands.
The damages to all the property involved is = 33,428 + 7,422 + 12,041
= $52,891
The Insurance company will therefore payout the maximum amount of $40,000.
The rest will be paid by Bill which is = 52,891 - 40,000
= $12,891
Exercise 6A-1 High-Low Method [LO6-10] The Cheyenne Hotel in Big Sky, Montana, has accumulated records of the total electrical costs of the hotel and the number of occupancy-days over the last year. An occupancy-day represents a room rented for one day. The hotel's business is highly seasonal, with peaks occurring during the ski season and in the summer. Month Occupancy-Days Electrical Costs January 1,736 $ 4,127 February 1,904 $ 4,207 March 2,356 $ 5,083 April 960 $ 2,857 May 360 $ 1,871 June 744 $ 2,696 July 2,108 $ 4,670 August 2,406 $ 5,148 September 840 $ 2,691 October 124 $ 1,588 November 720 $ 2,454 December 1,364 $ 3,529 Required: 1. Using the high-low method, estimate the fixed cost of electricity per month and the variable cost of electricity per occupancy-day. (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your Variable cost answer to 2 decimal places and Fixed cost element answer to nearest whole dollar amount.) 2. What other factors in addition to occupancy-days are likely to affect the variation in electrical costs from month to month
Answer:
1) variable cost = $1.56 per day
fixed costs = $1,395 per month
2) another aspect that increases or decreases electrical consumption is the weather. During very hot days, more people use the air conditioner, which increases electricity costs. Very cold weather will result in a similar increase in electric consumption.
Explanation:
Month Occupancy-Days Electrical Costs
January 1,736 $ 4,127
February 1,904 $ 4,207
March 2,356 $ 5,083
April 960 $ 2,857
May 360 $ 1,871
June 744 $ 2,696
July 2,108 $ 4,670
August 2,406 $ 5,148
September 840 $ 2,691
October 124 $ 1,588
November 720 $ 2,454
December 1,364 $ 3,529
variable cost = (highest activity cost - lowest activity cost) / (highest activity level - lowest activity level) = ($5,148 - $1,588) / (2,406 - 124) = $1.56 per day
fixed costs = $5,148 - ($1.56 x 2,406) = $1,395
The Reynolds Corporation buys from its suppliers on terms of 2/12, net 45. Reynolds has not been utilizing the discounts offered and has been taking 45 days to pay its bills. Ms. Duke, Reynolds Corporation's vice president, has suggested that the company begin to take the discounts offered. Duke proposes that the company borrow from its bank at a stated rate of 16 percent. The bank requires a 11 percent compensating balance on these loans. Current account balances would not be available to meet any of this compensating balance requirement.
Required:
a. Calculate the cost of not taking a cash discount.
b. Calculate the Effective rate of interest if the company borrow from the bank.
Answer:
A. 22.56%
B. 17.97%
Explanation:
a. Calculation for the cost of not taking a cash discount.
Cost of not taking cash discount = ( 2% / 98% )* ( 365 / (45 - 12) )
Cost of not taking cash discount=0.0204*365/33
Cost of not taking cash discount=7.446/33
Cost of not taking cash discount=0.2256*100
Cost of not taking cash discount= 22.56%
Therefore the Cost of not taking cash discount will be 22.56%
b. Calculation for the rate of interest if the company borrow from the bank.
Annual rate of interest = 16% / (1- 11%)
Annual rate of interest = 0.16/0.89
Annual rate of interest = 0.1797*100
Annual rate of interest = 17.97%
Therefore the rate of interest if the company borrow from the bank will be 17.97%
Gavin Jones's friend is planning to invest $ I million in a rock concert to be held I year from noW The friend figures that he will obtain $3 million revenue from his $1 million investment-unless, my goodness, it rains If it rains, he will lose his entire investment There is a 50% chance that it will rain the day of the concert Gavin suggests that he buy rain insurance He can buy one unit of insurance for $ 50, and this unit pays $1 if it rains and nothing if it does not He may pUlchase as many units llS he wishes. up to $3 million
Required:
a. What is the expected rate of return on his investment if he buys units of insurance?
b. What number of units will minimize the variance of his return? What is this minimunm value? And what is the corresponding expected rate of return?
Answer:
a. What is the expected rate of return on his investment if he buys u units of insurance?
total cost = $1,000,000 (concert cost) + $0.50u
return if it rains = $0 + $u
expected return:
doesn't rain = ($3,000,000 x 50%) = $1,500,000
rains = $0 + $u
expected rate of return = [($1,500,000 + $u) / ($1,000,000 + $0.5u)] - 1
b. What number of units will minimize the variance of his return? What is this minimum value? And what is the corresponding expected rate of return?
if you buy 3,000,000 units of u then variance is 0. Whether it rains or not, expected revenue = $3,000,000
total costs = $1 million (concert cost) + ($0.50 x 3 million units of insurance purchased) = $2,500,000
rate of return = ($3,000,000 / $2,500,000) - 1 = 20%
In the current year, Azure Company has $350,000 of net operating income before deducting any compensation or other payment to its sole owner, Sasha. In addition, Azure has interest on municipal bonds of $25,000. Sasha has significant income from other sources and is in the 37% marginal tax bracket.Based on this information, determine the income tax consequences to Azure Company and to Sasha during the year for each of the following independent situations. (Ignore the deduction for qualified business income and the 3.8% Medicare surtax on net investment income.)The rates on qualified dividends are 0%, 15% and 20%.If an amount is zero, enter "0".
Answer:
the question is incomplete:
a. Azure is a C corporation and pays no dividends or salary to Sasha.
Azure Company, as a C corporation, has taxable income of $350,000 and corporate income tax of $73,500 (21% of net income). Sasha has taxable income of $0 from Azure.
b. Azure is a C corporation and distributes $75,000 of dividends to Sasha.
Azure Company has taxable income of $350,000 and corporate income tax of $73,500 (21% of net income). Sasha incurs income tax of $15,000 (20% tax rate) with respect to the dividends.
c. Azure is a C corporation and pays $75,000 of salary to Sasha. (Ignore payroll taxes.)
The salary paid to Sasha is deductible by Azure Company resulting in taxable income of $275,000 and corporate income tax of $57,750 (21% of net income). Sasha incurs income tax of $27,750 (37% marginal tax rate) with respect to the salary she received during the year.
d. Azure is a sole proprietorship, and Sasha withdraws $0. (Ignore self-employment taxes.)
There is no Federal income tax applicable to businesses formed as sole proprietorships. Sasha incurs income tax of $129,500 (37% of $350,000) with respect to Azure Company.
e. Azure is a sole proprietorship, and Sasha withdraws $75,000. (Ignore self-employment taxes.)
There is no Federal income tax applicable to businesses formed as sole proprietorships. Sasha will pay tax on the income of Azure Company, regardless of the amount she withdraws. Applicable taxes are the same a in (d).
A school district is borrowing $40,000,000 over 17 years to fund a building expansion project. The school board can borrow annually for 1 year and then MUST borrow long term (16 years) or, can borrow at a long term fixed rate for the 17 years. The school district is looking at severe budget cuts where they are considering laying off a number of personnel. The choices they are considering are to borrow for one year at 1.75% and then must borrow fixed OR they can borrow for 17 years fixed rate at 4.0%. If they borrow for one year then go fixed, they will save $900,000 in interest that year and save all the jobs. They can borrow annually for to five years then must borrow fixed for the rest of the term. . What do you do and why
Answer:
borrow for one year at 1.75% and then must borrow fixed.
Explanation:
This option appears to be more economically advantageous and would save all jobs. Consider why this is the case from the interest paid in each option:
The Interest rate paid at 1.75%:
for one year at 1.75% = $700, 000 (1.75%x40,000,000) for annually up to five years at 1.75%= $3,500,000 (1.75%x40,000,000x5 years).The Interest rate paid at 4%:
borrow fixed for 16 years at 4% = $25,600,000 (4% x 40,000,000 x 16) borrow fixed for 12 years (17-5) at 4% = $19,200,000 (4% x 40,000,000 x 1,600,000)Total:
First option = $26,300,000 plus all jobs saved
Second option = $22,700,000
Therefore, the first option is more economically advantageous.

Orion Iron Corp. tracks the number of units purchased and sold throughout each year but applies its inventory costing method at the end of the year, as if it uses a periodic inventory system. Assume its accounting records provided the following information at the end of the annual accounting period, December 31. Transactions Units Unit Cost a. Inventory, Beginning 300 $ 14 For the year: b. Purchase, April 11 950 12 c. Purchase, June 1 850 15 d. Sale, May 1 (sold for $42 per unit) 300 e. Sale, July 3 (sold for $42 per unit) 630 f. Operating expenses (excluding income tax expense), $18,200 Required: 1. Calculate the number and cost of goods available for sale. 2. Calculate the number of units in ending inventory. 3. Compute the cost of ending inventory and cost of goods sold under (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, and (c) weighted average cost. 4. Prepare an income statement that shows under the FIFO method, LIFO method and weighted average method. 6. Which inventory costing method minimizes income taxes
Answer:
Transactions Units Unit Cost
a. Inventory, Beginning 300 $ 14
b. Purchase, April 11 950 12
c. Purchase, June 1 850 15
d. Sale, May 1 (sold for $42 per unit) 300
e. Sale, July 3 (sold for $42 per unit) 630
f. Operating expenses (excluding income tax expense), $18,200
1 and 2) When you use a periodic inventory method, cost of goods available for sale and ending inventory are the same. They differ only when you use a perpetual inventory.
ending inventory = 1,170 units
Ending inventory under FIFO:
$28,350 - $11,760 = $16,590
Ending inventory under LIFO:
$28,350 - $13,710 = $14,640
Ending inventory under weighted average:
$28,350 - $12,555 = $15,795
3) total units sold = 930 units
COGS under FIFO:
(300 x $14) + (630 x $12) = $11,760
COGS under LIFO:
(850 x $15) + (80 x $12) = $13,710
COGS under weighted average:
($28,350 / 2,100) x 930 = $12,555
4) Income statement under FIFO
Sales revenue $39,060
COGS ($11,760)
Gross profit $27,300
Operating expenses ($18,200)
Operating income $9,100
Income statement under LIFO
Sales revenue $39,060
COGS ($13,710)
Gross profit $25,350
Operating expenses ($18,200)
Operating income $7,150
Income statement under weighted average
Sales revenue $39,060
COGS ($12,555)
Gross profit $26,505
Operating expenses ($18,200)
Operating income $8,305
6) FIFO minimizes operating income, therefore, minimizes income tax expense.

Ponzi Products produced 114 chain letter kits this quarter, resulting in a total cash outlay of $11 per unit. It will sell 57 of the kits next quarter at a price of $12, and the other 57 kits in two quarters at a price of $13. It takes a full quarter for it to collect its bills from its customers. (Ignore possible sales in earlier or later quarters. )
a. Prepare an income statement for Ponzi for today and for each of the next three quarters. Ignore taxes.
b. What are the cash flows for the company today and in each of the next three quarters?
c. What is Ponzi
Answer:
A Ponzi scheme believe it or not is a form of fraud that lures investors and pays profits to earlier investors with funds from more recent investors. The scheme leads victims to believe that profits are coming from product sales or other means, and they remain unaware that other investors are the source of funds. A Ponzi scheme, such as Bitconnect can maintain the illusion of a sustainable business as long as new investors contribute new funds, and as long as most of the investors do not demand full repayment and still believe in the non-existent assets they are purported to own.
Bitconnect really had people believing in them with people making millions but found that they could not withdraw the money when the company suddenly closed down.
Bitconnect is a great story and shows why people should always be wary.
If it looks too good it probably is.
Explanation:
The production era describes the period of time when most things people used were made by hand.
True
False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Simple Trade Era (Pre-Industrial Revolution) is the era where most things were hand made.
The (mass) Production Era (1860s-1920s were when products were produced in mass at low cost.
The production era does not describe a period when most things were made by hand. Hence the given statement is false.
The production era, also known as the production-oriented era, refers to a historical period in business and marketing when companies focused primarily on production efficiency and maximizing output. This era is characterized by the belief that consumers would buy whatever products were available and affordable.
During the production era, mass production techniques, such as assembly lines, were introduced to increase productivity and lower costs. The emphasis was on achieving economies of scale and reducing production costs rather than catering to specific customer needs or preferences.
The production era is followed by subsequent marketing eras, such as the sales era, marketing era, and relationship era, which shift the focus towards understanding and fulfilling customer needs and building long-term customer relationships.

What is one benefit of a limited liability company over a corporation
On January 1, you plan to take a trip around the world upon graduation four years from now. Your grandmother wants to deposit sufficient funds for this trip in an investment account for you. On the basis of a budget, you estimate that the trip currently would cost $15,000. Being the generous and sweet lady she is, your grandmother decided to deposit $3,500 in the fund at the end of each of the next four years, starting on December 31, 2018. The account will earn 6 percent annual interest, which will be added to the account at each year-end.
Required:
How much interest revenue did the fund earn in 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018?
Answer:
nterest earned for year 1 is zero because the investment made is at the end of the year
Interest earned for year 2 is $210
Interest earned for year 3 is $433
Interest earned for year 4 is $669
Explanation:
We will use the annuity formula to compute the net interest earned for the next 4 years.
Annuity Value = Present Value * Annuity Factor
Here
Annuity factor = [1 - (1 + r)^-n] / r
r is 6%
n is 4 years
The present value is $3500
By putting above values in the equation we have:
Annuity Value = $3500 * [1 - (1 + 6%)^-4] / 6%
= $3500 * 4.374616 = $15,311.156
This is the annuity value of the yearly investment of $3500 for 4 consecutive years.
The interest portion = $15,311.156 - ($3500 * 4) = $1,311.156
Interest earned for year 1 is zero because the investment made is at the end of the year
Interest earned for year 2 = ($3500 * (1.06)) - $3500 = $210
Interest earned for year 3 = ($3500 * (1.06)^2) - $3500) = $433
Interest earned for year 4 = ($3500 * (1.06)^3) - $3500 = $669
Answer:
nterest earned for year 1 is zero because the investment made is at the end of the year
Interest earned for year 2 is $210
Interest earned for year 3 is $433
Interest earned for year 4 is $669
Explanation:
Isaac Inc. began operations in January 2021. For some property sales, Isaac recognizes income in the period of sale for financial reporting purposes. However, for income tax purposes, Isaac recognizes income when it collects cash from the buyer's installment payments.
In 2021, Isaac had $653 million in sales of this type. Scheduled collections for these sales are as follows:
2021 $70 million
2022 128 million
2023 126 million
2024 156 million
2025 173 million
$653 million
Assume that Isaac has a 25% income tax rate and that there were no other differences in income for financial statement and tax purposes. Ignoring operating expenses and additional sales in 2022 what deferred tax liability would Isaac report in its year-end 2022 balance sheet?
Answer:
$146 million
Explanation:
Calculation for the deferred tax liability that Isaac would report
Using this formula
Deferred tax liability=Total future taxable income × Tax rate
Let plug in the formula
Deferred tax liability=($653 million- $70 million) *25%
Deferred tax liability=$583 million *25%
Deferred tax liability=$145.75 million approximately $146 million
Therefore the deferred tax liability that Isaac would report will be $146 million
Discuss briefly how each of the following changes would affect the natural rate of unemployment.
a. Schools operate for the full year, so no students are looking for summer work.
b. The Internet lists all the jobs available in the whole country, so it is easier for job seekers to locate potential jobs.
c. People who quit their jobs are drafted into low-wage community-service jobs.
d. In addition to unemployment insurance, the unemployed receive a bonus for finding new jobs; the bonus is greater if the job is found in the first few weeks of search and declines with the duration of search.
Answer:
a. Schools operate for the full year, so no students are looking for summer work.
This will cause that the total labor force decreases, so the natural rate of unemployment will decrease. The natural rate of unemployment includes only structural and frictional unemployment. Since no students will look for summer jobs, then frictional unemployment will decrease, therefore, total natural unemployment will decrease also.
b. The Internet lists all the jobs available in the whole country, so it is easier for job seekers to locate potential jobs.
This will help to decrease structural unemployment which will in turn decrease the natural rate of unemployment. Structural unemployment happens when an unemployed individual cannot find a job that fits his/her skills. Internet job postings will make it easier for unemployed people to find jobs that match their skills.
c. People who quit their jobs are drafted into low-wage community-service jobs.
This should reduce frictional unemployment (which reduces the natural rate of unemployment), since frictional unemployment is made up of people that quit their jobs in order to search a better job or are looking for their first job ever. If people realize that quitting their current jobs will result in them being drafted into low wage jobs, less people will quit their jobs. This doesn't mean that they will stop searching for a better, it means that they will continue searching for a better while still employed.
d. In addition to unemployment insurance, the unemployed receive a bonus for finding new jobs; the bonus is greater if the job is found in the first few weeks of search and declines with the duration of search.
This should motivate people to get any available job as quick as possible. Sometimes a person that is fired will not accept possible jobs because they consider that they can get a better job, so they decide to wait until they get the job that they want. If a bonus is given, a lot of people will be motivated to accept any new job that they can find as long as it allows them to collect the bonus. This doesn't mean that they will quit looking for their dram job or the job that they deserve, it means that they will be working while doing so. This should decrease the natural rate of unemployment.

Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Product A Product B Total Activity
Activity 1 $26,400 170 380 550
Activity 2 $54,365 950 360 1,310
Activity 3 $136,880 900 3,820 4,720
Activity−basedcost for Poduct A
Activity−basedcost for Activity1= total Cost/total no. of activityx activity for particular product which is product A
=26,400/550 x 170= 8160
Activity−basedcost for Activity2= total Cost/total no. of activityx activity for particular product which is product A
=54,365/1310 x 950=39,425
Activity−basedcost for Activity3= total Cost/total no. of activityx activity for particular product which is product A
=136,880/4720 x 900=26100
Total activity based cost for Product A = $8,160 + $39,425 +$26,100=$73,685
The activity-based costing cost per unit of Product A = Total activity based cost for Product A/ Units Produced for product A=$73,685/8000=$9.21

A bond with a face value of $1,000 has 10 years until maturity, carries a coupon rate of 8.5%, and sells for $1,150. Interest is paid annually. (Assume a face value of $1,000 and annual coupon payments.) a. If the bond has a yield to maturity of 9.5% 1 year from now, what will its price be at that time? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to nearest whole number.) b. What will be the rate of return on the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.) c. If the inflation rate during the year is 3%, what is the real rate of return on the bond? (Assume annual interest payments.) (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Answer:
a. Coupon payment = 8.5% of $1000 = $85
i = 9.5%
n = 9
m =$1,000
Price of the bond after one year P1 = C* [1- 1/ (1+i)^n] /i + M / (1+i)^n
P1 = $85 * [1 – 1 / (1+9.5%) ^9] /9.5% + 1000 / (1+9.5%) ^9
P1 = $499.40 + $441.85
P1 = $941.25
b. The rate of return on the bond = (Income from one coupon payment + capital appreciation)/ Initial price of the bond
The rate of return on the bond = [$85 + ($941.25 - $1,150)]/ $1,150
The rate of return on the bond = ($85 - $208.75)/ $1,150
The rate of return on the bond = - $123.75/ $1,150
The rate of return on the bond = - 0.1076
The rate of return on the bond = -10.76%
c. f the inflation rate during the year is 3%
Real rate of return = [(1+ Nominal rate of return)/ (1+ Inflation rate)]-1
Where Nominal rate of return = - 10.76%, Inflation rate = 3%
Real rate of return = [(1-10.76%)/ (1+ 3%)]-1
Real rate of return = 0.08664 -1
Real rate of return = - 0.1336
Real rate of return = -13.36%
