Answer:

a. PV of a single sum table, n=5, i=9%

Explanation:

The value n determines the number of years annual cash flow is generated. As in this case it is 5 years, therefore n = 5.

The value i determines the rate at which the future value will be discounted to calculate present value of the cash flows. Therefore, in this case i = 9%.

Finally, we are asked to identify which table will be used to discount the salvage value of the equipment. Since we need to determine the discount value at year 5, therefore, the PV of a single sum table will be used.

Hence, the answer is a. PV of a single sum table, n=5, i=9%.

In October, Pine Company reports 18,600 actual direct labor hours, and it incurs $126,540 of manufacturing overhead costs. Stand
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The total overhead variance in hours taken is 3,600 hours

The total overhead cost variance is $1,110

Explanation:

The variance is about the different between budget/ standard and actual figures.

Standard hours allowed for the work done is 22,200 hours; and the predetermined overhead rate is $5.75 per direct labor hour. So total cost budgeted for work done is $127,650 = $5.57 x 22,200 hours

The total overhead variance in hours taken  = standard hours of 22,200 - actual direct labor hours of 18,600 = 3,600 hours

The total overhead cost variance  = standard cost - actual cost = $127,650  - $126,540 = $1,110

In a given amount of time John can produce either 40 pounds of vegetables or 10 pounds of chicken. In the same amount of time Ge
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Ten pounds of chicken to trade for at least <u>40</u> pounds of vegetables but not more than<u> 50</u> pounds of vegetables

Explanation:

                  Vegetables        Chicken        Trade Off Ratio

John             40                     10                4:1 (40/10) or 1:0.25 (10/40)

George          25                      5                 5:1 (25/5) or 1:0.20 (5/25)

John has comparative advantage in Chicken and George has comparative advantage in Veggies because :

  • John's chicken opportunity cost, in veggies < George (4<5). George's veggies opportunity cost, in chicken < John (0.20<0.25).
  • George is more (5X) productive in veggies than chicken, than John (4X). John is less unproductive in chicken than veggies (1/4th), compared to George (1/5th).  

So,  John will sell Chicken to George & George will sell veggies to John. Gains from trade are when each get trade ratio better than their their own trade off ratio.

  • It implies: John gets >' 4 pounds veggies per chicken pound' and George gets > '0.20 pound chicken per veggie pound'.
  • Unitary method:-  '1chicken : 4veggies' = '10chickens : 40veggies' and '0.20chicken : 1veggie' = '10chickens : 50 veggies' .

A) $46,050 B) $68,590 C) $85,190 D) $29,450 E) $62,650

Option E is the correct option,$62,650

Explanation:

The operating cash flow=net income+incremental depreciation

the operating cash flow=$46050+$16,600=$62650

The incremental taxes have already been factored into the computation of the net income, hence it is,it is expected that the depreciation would just be added to the net income in a bid to ascertain operating cash flow of the business

Each week a soft drink machine sells x cans of soda for $0.75/soda. The cost to the owner of the soda machine for each soda is $
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

$34.8

Explanation:

Profits = sales - costs( variable costs +fixed costs)

In this case : total sales will be price $0.75 x units sold X= 0.75X

Variable costs : =$10 x units sold= $10x

Fixed cost remain $25 as they are not affected by quantity.

profits for the Week

P= (0.75x- 0.10x)-$25

Profit for the week with units sold as 92: x = 92

p= ( {0.75x92} - {0.10x92} )- $25

P= $69 - $9.2- $25

P=$59.8- $25

   =$34.8
