Answer:
$102.3 per machine hour
Explanation:
We can compute the total production engineering cost per hour by using the following equation;
Cost per machine hour = (Fixed cost + Variable cost) / Total machine hours
But first, we need to calculate variable cost at 9,600 hours;
= $766,320 × 9,600hr / 9,300hr
= $791,040
Now, cost per machine hour
= $191,040 + $791,040 / 9,600hr
= $982,040 / 9,600hr
= $102.3 per machine hour

The marginal product of labor in the production of computer chips is chips per hour. The marginal rate of technical substitution (MRTS) of hours of labor for hours of machine capital is . What is the marginal product of capital? The marginal product of capital is nothing chips per hour. (Enter your response as an integer.)
Answer: 500 chips per hour
Explanation:
Marginal rate of technical substitution is calculated by the formula:
= Marginal product of labor / Marginal product of capital
0.20 = 100 / marginal product of capital
Marginal product of capital * 0.20 = 100
Marginal product of capital = 100 / 0.20
= 500
When a company outsources some of its work / activities currently done by itself, it ultimately shifts the cost structure of the company. In most cases this shift entails:
Answer:
Outsourcing Company Activities
The shift in the cost structure of the company entails:
the elimination of most fixed costs and making variable costs to become more prominent.
Explanation:
A company's cost structure describes the relative proportions of fixed and variable costs which the company incurs in its business activities. Outsourcing is a cost-driven strategy that involves the use of outside vendors to perform services and create goods that were traditionally produced in-house, thereby eliminating some employees and facilities, and thus, reducing cost.
John F. Kennedy, Jr. crashed his airplane as a result of being disoriented while flying in marginal weather conditions at night. In order to reduce the risk of an accident during these conditions, a pilot should
Answer: b. Rely more on flight instruments than normal
Explanation:
Due to the weather conditions, John Kennedy Jr. became disoriented and in the process did not know which way to best fly to plane towards which means that he lost direction and that was why he crashed.
In such a situation, it is advised that a pilot should rely more on their navigation equipment instead of the horizon or other navigation patterns that could have been affected by the weather. The flight equipment on board would be less affected and so would be safer to use.

Assume that consumers' incomes and the number of sellers in the market for good A (a normal good) both decrease. Based upon this information we can conclude, with certainty, that equilibrium:
Answer:
Quantity will Increase
Explanation:
As we know that when market is in equilibrium so the demand curve should be intersected the supply curve. At the time when there is an increase in suppliers so supply curve shift rightward due to which the consumer income would increase and this result in more demand. So the demand could be shift in rightward
So here the price should be the same but the quantity is increased
The risk free rate currently have a return of 2.5% and the market risk premium is 5.77%. If a firm has a beta of 1.42, what is its cost of equity
Answer:
10.69%
Explanation:
Market risk premium = 5.77% or 0.0577
The beta = 1.42
Risk free rate = 2.5% or 0.025
Cost of equity = Risk free rate + Beta*Market risk premium
Cost of equity = 0.025 + 1.42*0.0577
Cost of equity = 0.025 + 0.081934
Cost of equity = 0.106934
Cost of equity = 10.69%

The contribution margin per composite unit is:__________
Answer:
The correct answer is "12,500 units" and "$100 per unit".
Explanation:
Given:
Selling price,
= $10 per unit
Variable cost per unit,
= $6 per unit
Fixed cost,
= 30,000
Desired profit,
= 20,000
Now,
The contribution margin per unit will be:

= [tex]4[/tex] ($) per unit
The required units will be:
= [tex]\frac{(Fixed \ cost+Desired \ profit)}{Contribution \ margin}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{30000+20000}{4}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{50000}{4}[/tex]
= [tex]12,500 \ units[/tex]
Now,
The contribution margin per composite unit will be:
= [tex]Selling \ price-Variable \ cost[/tex]
= [tex]150-50[/tex]
= [tex]100[/tex] ($) per unit
Paxton Company can produce a component of its product that incurs the following costs per unit: direct materials, $9.50; direct labor, $13.50, variable overhead $2.50 and fixed overhead, $7.50. An outside supplier has offered to sell the product to Paxton for $33.00. Compute the net incremental cost or savings of buying the component.
Answer:
$7.50 per unit
Explanation:
Cost of buying from outside supplier = $33 per unit.
Relevant cost of making such component in-house = Direct materials+ Direct labor+ Variable overhead
= $9.50 per unit + $13.50 per unit + $2.50 per unit
= $25.50 per unit
Net incremental cost of buying the component = Cost of buying from outside supplier- Relevant cost of making such component in-house
= $33.00 per unit - $25.50 per unit
= $7.50 per unit

Market efficiency is probably the most controversial concept in finance. Even recent winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics come down on opposite sides of the issue. Nonetheless, it is important for you to grapple with this idea. It has very important practical implications for investment decisions, including (especially) for your personal investment decision. In particular, should you pursue active or passive strategies
Answer:
Active strategies should be pursued when the market is more volatile, with larger fluctuations over a shorter period of time, that require a more active management of a portfolio, in order to take advantage of fast changing positions in different assets, and also in order to avoid possible losses due to staying in particular positions for too long.
Passive strategies is more long-term focused, and should be pursued when the economy is more stable. Passive strategies should be analyzed carefully before execution because once the passive investment is made, the idea is to keep the position for a long period of time instead of buying and selling constantly as in a active strategy.
Use the following information for a manufacturer to compute cost of goods manufactured and cost of goods sold:
(Click the icon to view the information.)
First, compute cost of goods manufactured.
Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured
Beginning Work-in-Process Inventory $42,000
Direct Materials Used:
Beginning Direct Materials $28,000 Purchases of Direct Materials 70,000
Direct Materials Available for Use 98,000 Ending
Direct Materials (30,000)
Direct Materials Used $68,000
Direct Labor 86,000
Manufacturing Overhead 38,000
Total Manufacturing Costs Incurred during the Year 192,000
Total Manufacturing Costs to Account For 234,000
Ending Work-in-Process Inventory (35,000)
Cost of Goods Manufactured $199,000
Now compute cost of goods sold.
Cost of Goods Sold Direct Materials Available for Use 98000 Cost of Goods Manufactured 199000
Cost of Goods Available for Sale
Total Operating Costs
Cost of Goods Sold
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the cost of goods manufactured using the following formula:
cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP
cost of goods manufactured= 42,000 + (28,000 + 70,000 - 30,000) + 86,000 + 38,000 - 35,000
cost of goods manufactured= $199,000
Now, the cost of goods sold:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory
We do not have information regarding the beginning and ending finished goods inventory. But, suppose the beginning inventory equals $45,000 and the ending inventory $30,000:
COGS= 45,000 + 199,000 - 30,000
COGS= $214,000
Your boss believes the company's power plant is producing too much air pollution on a typical island. Your boss gives you three choices for dealing with this problem because he/she does not want to deal with it: You can pay a pollution tax (Carbon Offsets) one time of $13,000,000 immediately. You can close the plant and install a power cable from the mainland to the Island. That will cost you $1,000,000 at the end of this year, $3,000,000 at the end of next year and then $750,000 forever for maintenance. You can retrofit the plant with scrubbers to reduce the emissions to make the plant green. That will cost $7.5m at the end of this year and $100,000 for 50-years for maintenance. Assume that the cost of generating power on the mainland is approximately the same as the cost of generating power at the Island's plant. Assume, this comes as a surprise to you and you, have not saved any money in reserves, and you need to raise capital. Additional information is that market has a 12 percent market risk premium on the power plant with the risk-free rate being 5 percent with a company tax rate of 35 percent.
Current total raised capital at the power plant: (This will help you calculate the WACC) Debt – 7,000 outstanding bonds, at 7.5% coupon and 20 years to maturity. These bonds pay interest semiannually and quoted a price of 108 percent of par. Common Stock -180,000 shares outstanding, selling for $50 per share: Beta .90. Preferred Stock – 8,000 shares of 5.5 percent preferred stock outstanding, currently selling for $95.00 per share. Please answer in essay format and provide your Excel document showing all your calculation in appendixes choose the best option for Island. Support your answer with your calculations. Also, to calculations use specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles.
Answer:
WACC is 10.38%.
Best option is no 3, paying $750,000 this year and then $100,000 for 5 years.
Explanation:
WACC = Common stock * cost of equity + Debt * Cost of debt + Preferred stock * rate of return.
Common stock = 180,000 shares * $50 = $9,000,000
Preferred stock = 8,000 shares * $95 per share = $760,000
Debt = 7,000 bonds * 108% = $7,560,000
Cost of equity : 12% * 0.9 + 5% = 12.5%
Cost of debt : 7.5% * 0.65 = 4.40%
Preferred stock return rate : 5.5% / 95 = 5.79%
WACC = 10.38%

On August 1, Lola Company’s assets are $30,000 and its liabilities are $10,000. On August 4, Lola issues a sustainability report. On August 5, ownership invests $3,000 cash and $7,000 of equipment in Lola. After the investment, what is the amount of equity for Lola?
Answer: $30,000
Explanation:
Before the investment, Equity was:
= Assets - Liabilities
= 30,000 - 10,000
= $20,000
The owner then invested $3,000 and $7,000 therefore making a total of $10,000.
Equity becomes
= 20,000 + 10,000
= $30,000
The equity is $30,000
Lola's company assets are $30,000
The liabilities are $10,000
Equity= $30,000-$10,000
= $20,000
On August 5, ownership invests $3,000 in cash and $7,000 in equipment
= $3,000+$7,000
= $10,000
The amount of equity for Lola is
= $20,000+$10,000
= $30,000

Last year Ace charged $1,469,867 Depreciation on the Income Statement of Andrews. If early this year Ace purchased a new depreciable asset, the effect on Andrews's financial statements would be (all other items remaining equal):
Answer:
Increase Net Cash from operations
Explanation:
Note that the purchase of another depreciable asset means that annual depreciation expense would increase( increase on the old asset which is $1,469,867 plus the depreciation on newly acquired asset), hence, assuming that net income remains the same as last year(the meaning of all other items remaining equal), when the amount of increased depreciation is added back to the net income in the cash flow statement, the amount of net cash flow from operations would increase compared to last year.
In essence, the correct option in this case is that there would be an increase in net cash from operations not just an increase in amount of asset in the balance sheet
List at least four factors a project manager should consider when identifying individuals to work on a project. Why is each important
Answer:
The four elements to consider when identifying individuals to be part of a project team:
ability to communicate effectivelySelf Assuredness, experience, and ability, Organizational agilityEmotional IntelligenceExplanation:
1. Communication is essential because in a project if there is a miscommunication between one person, group, or team and another, that could prove fatal to the goal of the project.
Communication is verbal and non-verbal and (in a project and as with most organizations) must happen across both sides of the spectrum horizontally and vertically.
For example, when expectations are not clarified or there are assumptions about what one person or team said or expects, this could lead to project disruption. When too much is also divulged, a project can go belly-up.
2. Experience and ability are key but they are not enough. Each team member must be confident in what they believe is right. Sometimes, senior members of a team may want a course of action (that is detrimental) to be executed. A junior team member who is not self-assured may think, "it's coming from above, what can one do?" this type of thinking can be very costly.
A self-assured team player would stand for what is right and in the best interest of the team and the project even at the risk of being fired.
3. Organisational Agility
It is impossible to keep a messy itenary and achieve project success.
The ability to know exactly what needs to be done in succession is an invaluable trait of project team members. This prevents waste of time and resources.
4. Emotional Intelligence
Successful team players are also successful leaders. The most cohesive teams are teams that comprise of highly emotionally intelligent people. One of the benefits of emotional intelligence is that it helps the individual to know how to regulate their own behaviors as well as respond to those of others. It is also critical to motivating others to get the job done.

You have been asked to create a synthetic short position in a forward contract that permits you to sell 10 units of the underlying one year from now at a price of $50 per unit. (1) Describe the positions you need to take in call and put options to achieve the synthetic short forward position. (2) If the underlying is selling for $48 today (i.e. So = 48), what is the cost of your synthetic short position?
Solution :
[tex]\text{Short forward = buy a put + short a call on the same stock}[/tex] with the same exercise price.
X = exercise price = 50
1). Position to be taken :
-- buy 10 numbers of Put options with strike price of $ 50 per unit.
--- short (sell) 10 numbers of Call option with strike price of $ 50 per unit.
2). Cost of synthetic short position = [tex]$10 \times (P-C)$[/tex],
where, P = price of 1 put ption
C = price of 1 call option
The Call - Put parity equation :
[tex]$\frac{C+X}{(1+r)^t}=S_0+P$[/tex]
Here, C = Call premium
X = strike price of call and Put
r = annual rate of interest
t = time in years
[tex]$S_0$[/tex] = initial price of underlying
P = Put premium
Therefore,
[tex]$P-C=PV(X)-S_0=\frac{X}{(1+r)^t}-S_0$[/tex]
Here, t = 1, [tex]S_0[/tex] = 48, X = 50
So the cost of the position is given as : [tex]$\frac{50}{(1+r)} -48$[/tex]

Joe is currently selling 873 hamburgers per month at $5 per hamburger for total monthly sales of $4,365. The restaurant manager feels that a $1,000 monthly advertising budget would increase monthly sales by $3,000 to a total of 1,473 hamburgers. Should Joe add advertising
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Yes, as long as Joe is able to recover the money that he has spent on advertising and still increase his profit, then he should advertise. In this scenario, he wants to spend a fixed $1000 monthly on ads. If these ads generate an increase monthly sales of $3,000 as expected, then this means that Joe's restaurant will increase their total profits by $2,000 after recovering what they spent on the ads. This is what ads are for.

Right 5, 4 6, 5
The only dominant strategy in this game is for __________ to choose____________ . The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Sam chooses _____________ and Teresa chooses ______________.
Answer:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for Teresa to choose Right. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Sam chooses Right and Teresa chooses Right.
Explanation:
Given:
Teresa
Left Right
Sam Left 8, 4 4, 5
Right 5, 4 6, 5
A dominant strategy is one that makes a player in a game better off regardless of the choice of strategy of his opponent.
An examination of the payoff matrix above shows that when Sam plays Left, Teresa will play Right because 5 > 4. When Sam plays Right, Teresa will still play Right because 5 > 4. This is an indication that Teresa will always play Right no matter what Sam plays. Therefore, the dominant strategy for Teresa is Right.
On the other hand, when Teresa plays Left, Sam will also play Left because 8 > 5. And when Teresa plays Right, Sam will also play Right because 6 > 4. This implies that Sam does not have any unique strategy that make him better off. Therefore, Sam does NOT have a dominant strategy.
Therefore, we have:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for Teresa to choose Right. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Sam chooses Right and Teresa chooses Right.
