Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": equalize hierarchical or status differences among members of a group.

Explanation:

The Nominal Group Technique (NGT) is a method of brainstorming ideas in a group that starts by having the members writing down their perceptions on certain matters to later expose them to the rest of the group. Collectively, all the group members decide which idea is the best to solve the issue they have in common.

Under those circumstances, the NGT treats each of the opinions of the individuals involved equally regardless of the hierarchy they may occupy in the group.

Answer:

$1,593,535.83

Explanation:

Future Value of mortgage determines the future value of a mortgage after payments have been made, at a regular frequency, charged a regular rate of interest, compounded at payment dates.

DATA

PV = $1,500,000

N = 24

r = 0.04/12

PMT = $1250

FV =?

Solution

PV = (PMT/r)*[1 – 1/(1 + r)^N] + FV/(1 + r)^N

1,500,000 = (1250/(0.04/12)) * (1 – 1/(1 + 0.04/12)^24) + FV/(1 + 0.04/12)^24

1,500,000 = 28785.31353687 + 0.92323916 FV

FV = (1,500,000 - 28785.31353687)/ 0.92323916

FV = $1,593,535.83

Consider two markets: the market for motorcycles and the market for pancakes. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the sa

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

1. PES for pancakes is 2.45

2. Supply in the market for motorcycles is less elastic than supply in the market for pancakes.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply is the responsiveness of quantity supplied to a change in price. it is calculated by dividing the % change in quantity supplied by the % change in price. Generally, it can be of two types:

Price Elastic: Change in quantity supplied is higher than change in price. PES > 1
Price Inelastic: Change in quantity supplied is lower than change in price. PES < 1

When calculated using the mid-point formula, this is the formula used:

(Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1)/2]

(P2 - P1) / [(P2 + P1)/2]

1. We will now substitute the actual values of pancakes in place after identifying them from the question:

Equilibrium Quantity - 27 (Q1)

New Quantity - 109 (Q2)

Equilibrium Price - $6.50 (P1)

New Price - $10.75 (P2)

(109 - 27) / [(109 + 27)/2] 

(10.75 - 6.50) / [(10.75 + 6.50)/2]

1.21

0.493

Therefore, PES for pancakes is 2.45 (approx. two decimal places) suggesting it is price elastic.

2. In order to check whether motorcycles or pancakes are more elastic, we calculate the PES of motorcycles using the same method:

Equilibrium Quantity - 27 (Q1)

New Quantity - 61 (Q2)

Equilibrium Price - $6.50 (P1)

New Price - $10.75 (P2)

(61 - 27) / [(61 + 27)/2]

(10.75 - 6.50) / [(10.75 + 6.50)/2]

0.77

0.493

Therefore, PES for motorcycles is 1.56 (approx. two decimal places) suggesting it is price elastic. However, it is less price elastic than PES for pancakes.

One reason for this could be production time. Pancakes can be produced much faster than motorcycles. Therefore, it is more flexible to price changes.

Yello Bus Lines uses the units-of-activity method in depreciating its buses. One bus was purchased on January 1, 2019, at a cost

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The depreciation cost of the bus per unit is $ 1.4 which is purchased on January 1, 2019.

Explanation:

The depreciation cost per unit is computed as:

Depreciable asset = Cost - Salvage Value

= $205,860 - $7,900

= $197,960

Depreciation per unit = Depreciable asset /Useful life expected value

= $197,960 / 141,400

= $1.4

Therefore, the per unit cost is $1.4

The Meyers CPA firm has the following overhead budget for the year: Overhead Indirect materials $ 370,000 Indirect labor 1,705,0

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total manufacturing overhead= $ 2,986,000

The firm estimates total direct labor cost for the year to be $1,866,250.

The firm uses direct labor cost as the cost driver to apply overhead to clients.

1) Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base= 2986000/1866250= $1.6 per direct labor $

2) the firm worked for many clients; data for two of them follow: Gargus account Direct labor $ 3,200

Feller account Direct labor $ 9,200

Allocated MOH= Actual amount of allocation base*Estimated manufacturing overhead rate

Gargus overhead= 3200*1.6= 5120

Feller= 9200*1.6= 14720

3) Total cost Gargus= 3200 + 5120= $8,320

TC Feller= 14720 + 9200= $23,920
