Answer:
If this effort had no effect on the wages of its workers, one might consider this as evidence in support of:
d. neither the human-capital nor the signaling view of education.
Explanation:
The human capital view of education argues that education increases workers' productivity, which also affects some increase in workers' wages. The signaling view states that education passes a message about workers' various innate abilities to potential employers. This implies that the focus of the signaling view or theory is not the effect of education on the students but the message communicated in the labor market.

For what amount would the company report research and development expense in the current year
Answer: $200,000

Answer:
Return on equity = 32.967%
Explanation:
Given:
Beginning balance = $30,000
Share of partnership = $10,500
Withdrawal = $6,800
Find:

Rick O'Shea, the only employee of Hunter Furniture Company, makes $32,400 per year and is paid once a month. For the month of January, his federal income taxes withheld are $189, state income taxes withheld are $27, social security is 6.2% on a maximum wages of $122,700, Medicare tax is 1.45%, State Unemployment Tax is 5.4%, and Federal Unemployment tax is 0.6%, both on a maximum wages of $7,000 per employee. What is the employer's payroll tax expense associated with Rick's paycheck
Answer: $368.55
Explanation:
Employer payroll tax is;
= Social security + Medicare + State Unemployment Tax + Federal Unemployment tax
Monthly salary = 32,400/12 = $2,700
= (6.2% * 2,700) + (1.45% * 2,700) + ( 5.4% * 2,700) + ( 0.6% * 2,700)
= $368.55
You have received a job offer upon graduation from a prestigious consulting firm. Before you receive your first paycheck, you have decided to purchase a $100,000 Porsche. The Eighth National Bank of Okemos is willing to give you a 5-year loan, but they require a 10% down payment, and the interest rate will be 10% annually. How much will your monthly payments be
Answer:
The monthly payments will be $1,912.23.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV at 65 = Present value of the balance of the Porsche = $100,000 * (100% - Percentage of down payment) = $100,000 * (100% - 10%) = $90,000
P = monthly payments = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = Annual interest rate / 12 = 10% / 12 = 0.10 / 12 = 0.00833333333333333
n = number of months = 5 years * 12 months = 60
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for P, we have:
$90,000 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.00833333333333333))^60) / 0.00833333333333333)
$90,000 = P * 47.0653690237519
P = $90,000 / 47.0653690237519
P = $1,912.23
Therefore, the monthly payments will be $1,912.23.
Coronado Inc. has completed the purchase of new Dell computers. The fair value of the equipment is $708,769. The purchase agreement specifies an immediate down payment of $172,000 and semiannual payments of $66,179 beginning at the end of 6 months for 5 years. What is the interest rate, to the nearest percent, used in discounting this purchase transaction
Answer: 8%
Explanation:
Fair value = $708,769
Down payment will be made so only the amount net of the down payment will be paid periodically.
= 708,769 - 172,000
= $536,769
Present value of Annuity interest factor for payment = 536,769/66,179
= 8.11087
No. of periods = 2 * 5years = 10 semi annums
Look at the Present value of interest factor of Annuity (PVIFA) table and find the interest rate that corresponds to 10 periods and gives an interest factor of 8.11087.
That interest rate is ⇒ 4%
As this is a semi-annual rate, the annual rate is;
= 4% * 2
= 8%
Supercircuits is a decentralized company and has a required opportunity cost of capital of 15%. The home computer division, whose current ROI IS 10%, is considering an investment which will earn 13% return. The gaming division, whose current ROI is 20%. Is considering an investment which will earn a 17% return. If the objective is to maximize residual income, each division will make the following choice:______. Computer Gaming A. Reject Accept B. Accept Reject C. Accept Accept D. Rejec Reject
Answer:
B. Accept Reject
Explanation:
As we can see that the home computer has the earning of 10% and its return on investment is increased to 13% so it is a better choice for division of home computer to accept the investment and the other division i.e. gaming division should reject the proposal as it is already earned the 20% and if it is accepted so it decreased the return on investment
Therefore the option B is correct
Consider the following information on returns and probabilities: Invest 1/2 of your money in Asset A and 1/2 in Asset B. State Probability A B Boom .25 12% 4% Bust .75 6% 18% What is the expected return for the portfolio
Answer: 11%
Explanation:
Find the expected return in both Booms and Busts;
0.5 of your money is in Asset A and Asset B each.
Boom;
= (0.50 * 12%) + (0.50 * 4%)
= 8%
Bust
= (0.50 * 6%) + (0.50 * 18%)
= 12%
Portfolio expected return = (0.25 * 8%) + (0.75 * 12%)
= 11%

assume the following the standard price per pound is 2.00 the standard quantity of pounds allowed per unit of finished goods is 4 pounds the actual quantity of materials purchased and used in production is 50000 pounds the company produced 13000 units of finished goods during the period the actual price per pound of direct materials is closest to
Answer: $2.28
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the actual price per pound of direct materials will be calculated as:
Material Price Variance = (14000)
Since material price valriance is the actual price deducted from the standard price for actual quantity that was used during production process. This will be:
(14000) = [(2 × 50000)] - [Actual Price × 50000]
(14000) = (100000) - (actual price × 50000)
(Actual Price × 50000) = 100000 + 14000
Actual Price × 50000) = 114000
Actual Price = 114000 / 50000
Actual price = 2.28

A company estimates that overhead costs for the next year will be $8,500,000 for indirect labor and $164,500 for factory utilities. The company uses machine hours as its overhead allocation base. If 490,000 machine hours are planned for this next year, what is the company's plantwide overhead rate? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Answer:
$17.68 per machine hour.
Explanation:
Plant Overhead rate per machine hour = $8,500,000 + $164,500 / 490,000 machine hours
Plant Overhead rate per machine hour = $8,664,500 / 490,000 machine hours

g The Ricardian equivalence states that if the government cuts taxes without changing current or future expenditure then: a) households will consume more because the marginal propensity to consume is positive b) households will save more because they will expect higher taxes in the future c) households will consume less because they will acquire the debt issued by the government d) households will save less because the tax multiplier is bigger than 1 e) both (a) and (d) f) both (b) and (c)
Answer:
b) households will save more because they will expect higher taxes in the future
Explanation:
The Ricardian Equivalence proposition is one of the pillars of classical economics, which sadly has proven to not work very well in the real world. According to classical economists, and their quantity theory of money plus the Ricardian Equivalence, recessions do not exist because it is impossible for them to exist. But in the real world, that is not true. Recessions exist, e.g. the US is in a recession since the first quarter of 2020 (even before the current health crisis). When real people lose their jobs or are afraid to lose their jobs, their spending habits change.
On the other hand, when real people get a tax refund or tax cut, they generally spend it, they will not save it to pay future taxes. That is why car sales increase during February after checks form the IRS are handed out.
Theoretically, classical economics is great. The problem is that we are human beings, and as such, our behavior cannot be controlled or determined by what we should or should not do. This is exactly why the velocity of money (quantitative theory of money) is not constant.
