Answer:
d.$72 per machine hour
Explanation:
Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity
therefore,
Predetermined overhead rate = $11,742,000 ÷ 164,000
= $71.598 or $72
The predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours is $72 per machine hour.
A pollution tax would be preferable to a system of transferable permits when... a. the marginal costs of damages are steep and the marginal costs of pollution reduction are relatively stable. b. the marginal costs of damages are steep and the marginal costs of pollution reduction are steep. c. the marginal costs of damages are relatively stable and the marginal costs of pollution reduction are relatively stable. d. the marginal costs of damages are relatively stable and the marginal costs of pollution reduction are steep. e. the marginal costs of damages are elastic and the marginal costs of pollution reduction are also elastic.
Answer:
a. the marginal costs of damages are steep and the marginal costs of pollution reduction are relatively stable.
Explanation:
Pollution can be defined as the physical degradation or contamination of the environment through an emission of harmful, poisonous and toxic chemical substances.
Offset trading refers to a type of trading system that is typically designed for the realization of more efficient pollution control.
This ultimately implies that, an offset trading is a strategic program that allows emerging business firms to pay existing business firms in order to significantly reduce their emissions or pollutants below a specific standard.
Free market in tradable pollution permits simply means giving manufacturing companies and individuals the legal right to pollution of the environment. For example, XYZ company is purchasing the permit of 500 units of carbon dioxide (CO2) pollution annually, this simply means it is permitted to pollute the environment by 500 units of CO2 annually.
Additionally, a free market in tradable pollution permits has some sort of benefits as companies can resell their unused permits or devise a cheaper means of reducing pollution. It also compensate companies that significantly reduces its pollution of the environment.
A pollution tax can be defined as a type of tax imposed on business firms that causes pollution and damages to the environment. It is also referred to as Pigovian tax which is a tax on goods with negative externality.
Hence, tradable permits when compared with pollution tax are likely to result in less inefficiency, when the marginal costs of damages are steep and the marginal costs of pollution reduction are relatively stable.

Nash Company purchased a computer for $8,160 on January 1, 2019. Straight-line depreciation is used, based on a 5-year life and a $1,020 salvage value. On January 1, 2021, the estimates are revised. Nash now feels the computer will be used until December 31, 2022, when it can be sold for $510. Compute the 2021 depreciation. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.) Depreciation expense, 2021 $
Answer:
$2,397
Explanation:
Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation
Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Estimated useful life
therefore,
Annual depreciation charge
2019
Depreciation Charge = $1,428
2020
Depreciation Charge = $1,428
2021
Depreciation Charge = ($8,160 - $1,428 - $1,428 - $510) ÷ 2
= $2,397
therefore,
Depreciation expense, 2021 is $2,397

Your company has finished working on an open world video game, CyberPerson 2080. You now have a decision to make. You can auction your game off to a publisher, or you can keep your game and do the marketing and publishing yourself. If you auction your game off, your analytics team estimates there is a 25% chance you will earn $5 million, a 35% chance you will earn $12 million, and a 40% chance you will earn $16 million. If you keep your game, your marketing and publishing costs will be $7 million. If you keep your game, your analytics team estimates there is a 30% chance your game will be a critical and commercial hit, a 25% chance your game will sell well and make gross revenues of $12 million, and a 45% chance another similar game will come out at the same time and you will make gross revenues of $1 million.
If your game is a critical and commercial hit, there is a 60% chance it is on the "best of the year" lists and makes gross revenues of $64 million, a 35% chance it stays on the top seller lists for weeks and makes gross revenues of $28 million, and a 5% chance it makes gross revenues of $18 million. Assume you make decisions using expected value, and you are an expected value maximizer. If you make the optimal decision, how much will you expect to earn from your game?
Answer:
CyberPerson 2080
If you make the optimal decision, the amount you will expect to earn from your game is:
= $11.85 million.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Expected value of game being a critical and commercial hit:
Probability Gross Revenue Expected Revenue
60% $64 million $38.4 million
35% 28 million 9.8 million
5% 18 million 0.9 million
100% $49.1 million
Value of auctioning game:
Probability Gross Revenue Expected Revenue
25% $5 million $1.25 million
35% $12 million $4.20 million
40% $16 million $6.40 million
100% $11.85 million
Value of keeping game:
Probability Gross Revenue Expected Revenue
100% -$7 million -$7.00 million
30% $49.1 million $14.73 million
25% $12 million $3.00 million
45% $1 million $0.45 million
100% $11.18 million
b) The optimal solution will be to auction the game and make $11.85 million, which is higher than $11.18 million made from keeping the game and doing the marketing and publishing.

ABM, Kaizen Costing Baker, Inc., supplies wheels for a large bicycle manufacturing company. The bicycle company has recently requested that Baker decrease its delivery time. Baker made a commitment to reduce the lead time for delivery from seven days to one day. To help achieve this goal, engineering and production workers had made the commitment to reduce time for the setup activity (other activities such as moving materials and rework were also being examined simultaneously). Current setup times were 12 hours. Setup cost was $600 per setup hour. For the first quarter, engineering developed a new process design that it believed would reduce the setup time from 12 hours to nine hours. After implementing the design, the actual setup time dropped from 12 hours to seven hours. Engineering believed the actual reduction was sustainable. In the second quarter, production workers suggested a new setup procedure. Engineering gave the suggestion a positive evaluation, and they projected that the new approach would save an additional six hours of setup time. Setup labor was trained to perform the new setup procedures. The actual reduction in setup time based on the suggested changes was four hours.
Required:
1. What kaizen setup standard would be used at the beginning of each quarter?
2. How much non-value-added cost was eliminated by the end of two quarters?
Answer and Explanation:
the computation is shown below:
1. Setup Time standard
Here the first quarter standard would be considered i.e. 9 hours so we dont take the actual setup time
The Second quarter is 1 hour that denotes the Expected setup time
2. The Total non-value cost which got eliminated is
Since, The setup time was Decrease from 12 hours to 3 hours.
So, the Total non value added cost eliminated is
= $600 × (12 - 3)
= $600 × 9
= $5,400

The inflation rate in Great Britain is expected to be 4% per year, and the inflation rate in Switzerland France is expected to be 6% per year. If the current spot rate is £1 = SF 12.50, what is the expected spot rate in two years? A) SF12.99 B) SF 10.25 C) SF 11.44 D) SF 8.50 E) None of the above
Answer:
The spot rate in two years time = SF 12.99
Explanation:
The purchasing power parity states that the relationship between the current and future spot rate between two currencies can be linked to the differences in the expected inflation rate between the currency.
This relationship can be expressed as follows:
S1= So× (1 + hc)/(1 + hb)
So= Current spot rate, Hc- inflation rate in Switzerland, Inflation rate in Britain
Spot rate in a year's time
S1= 12.50, Hc=6%, Hc=4%
S1= 12.50× (1.06/1.04)
S1=12.74
Spot rate in two year's time
S1= 12.74× (1.06/1.04)
S1= 12.99
The spot rate in two years time = SF 12.99

a. Product-variety externality
b. Business-stealing externality
c. Markup over marginal cost
d. Excess capacity
Answer:
D
Explanation:
A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopolistic competition has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.
An example of monopolistic competition are restaurants
The product-variety externality: When new firms enter into an industry, competition drives price down. This increases consumer surplus. As a result, entry of firms into an industry results in a positive externality on consumers.
The business-stealing externality: When a new firm enters into an industry, existing firms lose customers and profits fall. As a result, entry of a new firm results in a negative externality on existing firms.
Markup over marginal cost is the extent of which price exceeds marginal cost
Excess capacity is when a firm is producing at a capacity that is less than what it is designed for. Excess capacity is evidenced when upon increasing output, average cost falls.

Explanation:
Firm A is very aggressive in its use of debt to leverage up its earnings for common stockholders, whereas Firm NA is not aggressive and uses no debt. The two firms' operations are identical--they have the same total investor-supplied capital, sales, operating costs, and EBIT. Thus, they differ only in their use of financial leverage (wd). Based on the following data, how much higher or lower is A's ROE than that of NA, i.e., what is ROEA - ROENA?

B) 12.01%.
C) 10.35%.
D) 12.12%.
E) 12.84%.
Answer:
Kindly check the because my below submission is water tight
Explanation:
First and foremost, we need to determine the net income for both companies bearing in mind that the for firm A interest expense is 12% of debt capital whereas debt capital is 50% of total capital of $180,000 since the debt ratio(debt/total capital) of firm of Firm A is 50% and 0% for Firm NA
EBIT=$40,000
tax rate=35%
Firm A:
Debt capital=50%*$180,000=$90,000
Equity=50%*$180,000=$90,000
interest expense=$90,000*12%
interest expense=$10,800
Earnings before tax=$40,000-$10,800=$29,200
net income=earnings before-tax*(1-tax rate)
net income=$29,200*(1-35%)
net income=$18,980
return on equity=net income/equity
return on equity=$18,980/$90,000
return on equity=21.09%
Firm NA:
Equity=$180,000
debt=0%
EBIT=$40,000
no debt, no interest expense
net income=$40,000*(1-35%)
net income=$26,000
return on equity=$26,000/$180,000
return on equity=14.44%
ROEA - ROENA=21.09%-14.44%=6.65%

Rodney (a fictional person) was self-employed, running a successful business, seemingly healthy, and never thought he would have financial problems. Being self-employed, he lacked health insurance. One day on the job, Rodney suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized for a week. As a result, he owed more than $100,000 in hospital and medical bills to the hospital. After the heart attack, Rodney could not work in his physically demanding line of work, and his business suffered dramatically. The bills and mortgage payments kept piling up, and Rodney was sinking fast. On top of the medical bills and mortgage, he owed thousands of dollars to multiple companies and creditors. Rodney considered selling his house to get out of the financial crisis he was in, but the value of the house had dropped significantly. After much consideration, Rodney decided to file, bankruptcy. In the end, he decided he would rather have a bankruptcy on his record instead of dealing with a mountain of debt.

e. Order of relief.
6. A possible consequence of Rodney's failure to show up at a creditors meeting is:
b. The court may refuse to grant the bankruptcy
Explanation:
In bankruptcy practices, an order for relief invokes the automatic stay. It is a block on Rodney's debts which brings down the iron curtain, thus, separating Rodney's pre-bankruptcy from his post-bankruptcy. It automatically creates a bankruptcy estate, which prohibits all unauthorized transfers of the Rodney's property.
Jacoby Company received an offer from an exporter for 25,400 units of product at $18 per unit. The acceptance of the offer will not affect normal production or domestic sales prices. The following data are available: Domestic unit sales price $21 Unit manufacturing costs: Variable 13 Fixed 5 The differential revenue from the acceptance of the offer is
Answer:
Differential income from the special order= $127,000
Explanation:
A company should accept a special order where the order generates additional contribution. i.e where the special order sales exceeds all relevant cost.
The relevant cost for decision to accept the special order are
I Incremental Revenue from the special order
2. incremental variable cost
Contribution per unit = 18-13=5
Total contribution from special order = contribution per unit × units
= 5× 25,400=$127,000
Differential income from the special order= $127,000
Note that whether or not the special order is accepted the fixed manufacturing and fixed operating expenses of would be incurred either way. Therefore , they are not relevant for the decision
You need to earn 6% annul real rate of return and, in addition, you need to keep up with the annual inflation rate. Exactly 4 years ago, the expected inflation rate was 2% per year. At that time, you decided to invest in a 7-year annuity with $20,000 deposited at the end of each year. Now, right after you made the 4th deposit, the expected annual inflation rate for the next 3 years is 3% per year. To keep your investment goal of 6% real annual return and keeping up with the new inflation rate, how much more each year for the last 3 years you will need to deposit in addition to the $20,000 per year to reach that goal?
Answer:
"4,000" is the appropriate option.
Explanation:
Given:
Real interest rate,
= 6%
Inflation rate,
= 2%
Annual deposit,
= $20,000
Now,
The nominal interest rate will be:
= [tex]Real \ interest \ rate+Inflation \ rate[/tex]
= [tex]6+2[/tex]
= [tex]8[/tex] (%)
As per the annual deposit, I was making,
= [tex]20000\times 0.6[/tex]
= [tex]1200 \ every \ year[/tex]
Inflation rate rise 3% i.e.,
= [tex]2+3[/tex]
= [tex]5[/tex] (%)
Just to earn 1200, I have to:
= [tex]\frac{1200}{0.05}[/tex]
= [tex]24,000[/tex]
Thus the above is the appropriate answer.
Pension Plan Entries Yuri Co. operates a chain of gift shops. The company maintains a defined contribution pension plan for its employees. The plan requires quarterly installments to be paid to the funding agent, Whims Funds, by the fifteenth of the month following the end of each quarter. Assume that the pension cost is $157,100 for the quarter ended December 31.
Journalize the entry to record the accrued pension liability on December 31.
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry is shown below:
On Dec 31
Pension expense $157,100
To Unfunded pension liability $157,100
(Being the quarterly pension cost is recorded)
here the pension expense is debited as it increased the expense and credited the unfunded pension liability as it also increased the liabilities
So, the above journal entry should be recorded
"Bennett Co. has a potential new project that is expected to generate annual revenues of $247,700, with variable costs of $137,600, and fixed costs of $56,500. To finance the new project, the company will need to issue new debt that will have an annual interest expense of $16,500. The annual depreciation is $22,000 and the tax rate is 40 percent. What is the annual operating cash flow?"
Answer:
$40,960
Explanation:
The computation of the operating cash flow is shown below;
As we know that
Annual Operating Cash Flow is
= EBIT × (1 - Tax Rate) + Depreciation Expenses
Here,
Earnings Before Interest & Tax [EBIT] = Revenues - Variable Cost - Fixed Costs - Depreciation Expenses
= $247,700 - $137,600 - $56,500 - $22,000
= $31,600
Now
Annual Operating Cash Flow = EBIT × (1 - Tax Rate) + Depreciation Expenses
= $31,600 × (1 - 0.40) + $22,000
= [$31,600 × 0.60] + $22,000
= $18,960 + 22,000
= $40,960
