Answer:
Determination of points that represent pressure for cost reduction and those that represent pressure for local responsiveness:
A. Pressure for cost reductions:
3. Outsourcing
4. Universal Needs
6. Optimal Location
8. Experience Curve
B. Pressure for local responsiveness:
1. Differences in Infrastructure
2. Differences in Preferences
5. Distribution Channels
7. Host Government Demands
Explanation:
Local responsiveness to international strategies arises from differences in customer preferences, differences in traditional practices and infrastructure, differences in distribution channels, and from host government demands. The rest, including the need for outsourcing, meeting universal needs, finding optimal locations, and gaining from experience curves, originate from the entity's efforts to reduce costs of products and services for market competitiveness.
CCC Company’s most recent income statement shows (in thousands of dollars) sales $2,000, interest payments $100, and net income $140. Its most recent balance sheet shows (also in thousands of dollars) total debt financing $800. If the total asset turnover ratio computed from the company’s most recent financial statements was 1.5, what would we compute return on assets (ROA) to be? (Hint: you should use the DuPont method of analysis.) A. 4.7% B. 10.5% C. 26.7% D. 18.7% E. 3.0%
Answer:
B. 10.5%
Explanation:
The computation of the return on assets is shown below:
As we know that
Return on assets = Net income ÷ total assets
where,
Total assets is
Total asset turnover = Sales ÷ Total assets
1.5 = $2,000 ÷ Total assets
So, the total assets is $1,333.33
Now the return on assets is
= $140 ÷ $1,333.33
= 10.5%
Assuming two investments have equal lives, a high discount rate tends to favor Group of answer choices the investment with even cash flow neither investment since they have equal lives the investment with large cash flow early the investment with large cash flow late
Answer:
the investment with large cash flow early
Explanation:
This can be illustrated with an example.
There are 2 investments A and B
The cash flows of A =
Cash flow in year 1 = $50,000
Cash flow in year 2 = 0
Cash flow in year 3 = 0
The cash flows of B =
Cash flow in year 1 = 0
Cash flow in year 2 = 0
Cash flow in year 3 = 50,000
Discount rate for both investment is 40%
Present value of A = $35,714.29
Pesent value for B = $18,221.57
It can be seen that the investment with the higher cash flow early has a higher present value
Timing Technology, Inc. manufactures timing devices. During 20x1, 1,500,000 units were completed and transferred to finished-goods inventory. On December 31, 20x1, there were 320,000 units in work in process. These units were 49 percent complete as to conversion and 100 percent complete as to direct material. Finished-goods inventory consisted of 450,000 units. Materials are added to production at the beginning of the manufacturing process, and overhead is applied to each product at the rate of 100 percent of direct-labor costs. There was no finished-goods inventory on January 1, 20x1. A review of the inventory cost records disclosed the following information:
Units Materials Labor
Work in process, January 1, 20x1 310,000 $310,000 $315,400
(84% complete as to conversion)
Units started in production 1,510,000
Direct-material costs $2,966,000
Direct-labor costs $2,998,200
Required:
Complete the following schedule as of December 31, 20x1, to compute the cost of work-in-process inventory.
Physical Units
Total units to account for 0
Total units to account for 0
Answer:
The cost of work-in-process inventory as of December 31, 20x1 is:
= $368,998.40
Physical units:
For materials = 320,000 units
For conversion = 156,800 units
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Units Materials Labor
Work in process, January 1, 20x1 310,000 $310,000 $315,400
(84% complete as to conversion)
Units started in production 1,510,000 1,510,000 1,510,000
Direct-material costs $2,966,000
Direct-labor costs $2,998,200
Total costs $3,276,000 $3,313,600
Units started in production 1,510,000 1,510,000 1,510,000
Work in process, December 31, 20x1 320,000 320,000 156,800
Total equivalent units 1,830,000 1,666,800
Costs per equivalent unit $1.79 $1.988
Cost of Ending WIP = $ (320,000 *$1.79 + 156,800*$1.988)
= $57,280 for materials + $311,718.40 for materials
= $368,998.40
b) The weighted average method was used to calculate the equivalent units. With this method, the beginning units of work-in-process are not part of the calculation (only the units started and completed and the ending work-in-process are). However, the costs of the beginning work-in-process form part of the calculation together with the cost of units started and completed during the current period.

Suppose that you reach 65 years old, and have $100,000 in an investment that pays a return of 5 percent per year. a) If you withdraw $10,000 at the end of each year for living expenses, how many years will it take before your investment is gone
Answer:
It will take approximately 14.21 years before the investment is gone.
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 = Present value or investment value = $100,000
P = Annual withdrawal = $10,000
r = return rate = 5%, or 0.05
n = number of more years it will take before the investment is gone = ?
Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:
100,000 = 10,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.05))^n) / 0.05)
100,000 / 10,000 = (1 - (1 / 1.05)^n) / 0.05
10 = (1 - (1 / 1.05)^n) / 0.05
10 * 0.05 = 1 - (1 / 1.05)^n
0.50 = 1 - (1 / 1.05)^n
(1 / 1.05)^n = 1 - 0.50
0.952380952380952^n = 0.50
Loglinearize both sides, we have:
n * log0.952380952380952 = log0.50
n = log0.50 / log0.952380952380952
n = -0.301029995663981 / -0.0211892990699382
n = 14.2066990828904
Approximating to 2 decimal places, we have:
n = 14.21
Therefore, it will take approximately 14.21 years before the investment is gone.

(4) It is going to be a while before things get better in the United states.
Explanation:
Since in the question it is mentioned that the unemployment would be approx 10% also it remains to be continued into chaos.
So in the case when there is a fall in the economy there are various measures required to be taken such as the introduction of the price control takes by the government it helps to improve the fall that experience in the economy this would take time to return the economy in its normal states
So, the last option is correct
A special project is going to be started by Hally Corporation. Company is considering using stocks of an old raw material in a special project. The special project would require all 230 kilograms of the raw material that are in stock and that originally cost the company $900 in total. If the company were to buy new supplies of this raw material on the open market, it would cost $8.25 per kilogram. However, the company has no other use for this raw material and would sell it at the discounted price of $7.50 per kilogram if it were not used in the special project. The sale of the raw material would involve delivery to the purchaser at a total cost of $50 for all 230 kilograms. What is the relevant cost of the 230 kilograms of the raw material when deciding whether to proceed with the special project?

Irfan runs a small business. His business's total liabilities amount to $200.000. His net profit for the latest accounting period is $50.000. The total
value of all the business assets comes to $600.000. What is the debt to asset ratio in the case of Irfan's business?
The debt to assets ratio of Irfan's business to two decimal places, is ???
percent
Answer:
33.33%
Explanation:
The debt to assets ratio indicates the proposition of a company's assets that have been financed through debt.
the formula for determining this ratio is as follows
Debt to asset ratio = Total debts/total assets x 100
For Cy Ifran, total debts or liabilities =$200,000
total assets = $600,000
Debt to asset ratio =$200,000/ $600,000
=0.33 x 100
=33.33%

The United Nations Development Pro- gramme (UNDP) uses the Human Development Index (HDI) in an attempt to summarize in one number the progress in health, education, and economics of a coun- try. The number of cell phone subscribers per 1000 people is positively associated with economic progress in a coun- try. Can the number of cell phone subscribers be used to predict the HDI
Answer:
I'm not sure that the number of cell phones users per 1,000 people can be a good economic indicator. E.g. there are currently more than 1.6 billion cell phone users in China, which means that some people obviously use more than 1 cell phone (Chinese population is around 1.4 billion people). But China's HDI is 0.752 (2017) and that places China at the number 85 spot, which is really not a good place.
While other countries like Norway have less than 5 million cell phone users with a population of more than 5.35 million people. But Norway is ranked as the number 1 country in HDI.
If the quantity demanded of a good falls by 2% when income rises by 10%, then: Group of answer choices demand is income-elastic. the good is normal. the good is inferior. Both A and C.
Answer:
The good is inferior
Explanation:
For instance, if the income of a consumer increases, his demand for cheap shoes and shirt decreases and the demand for expensive shoes and shirt increases. So, therefore, the cheap shirt and shoes are inferior goods in the instance. So, whenever quantity demanded of a good fall when the income rises, the goods is considered inferior goods.
the _____ adds up the market prices of final goods and services.
Answer:
Expenditure Approach
Explanation:
Juanita makes $30 an hour at work. She has to take time off work to purchase her dress, so each hour away from work costs her $30 in lost income. Assume that returning to work takes Juanita the same amount of time as getting to a store and that it takes her 30 minutes to shop. As you answer the following questions, ignore the cost of gasoline and depreciation of her car when traveling.
Assume that it takes 15 minutes to travel to the local department store, 30 minutes to travel to the store across town, and 60 minutes to travel to the store in the neighboring city. Complete the following table by computing the opportunity cost of Juanita's time and the total cost of shopping at each location.
Store Opportunity Cost of Time (Dollars) Price of a Suit (Dollars per suit) Total Cost (Dollars)
Local Department Store ___________________ 114 _________
Across Town ___________________ 86 _________
Neighboring City ____________________ 60 _________
Assume that Juanita takes opportunity costs and the price of the suit into consideration when she shops. Juanita will minimize the cost of the suit of she buys it from the _____
Answer:
Juanita should purchase the suit at the store across town because the total economic cost will be lowest.
Explanation:
three options:
local store 15 minutes away and a price of $114 across town 30 minutes away and a price of $86 neighboring city 1 hour away and a price of $60Juanita makes $30 per hour at her work, and her purchase decision includes the opportunity cost of lost wages:
total economic cost:
local store = $114 + [1/4 hours x 2 (round trip) x $30] + (1/2 hours x $30 spent shopping) = $144 across town = $86 + [1/2 hours x 2 (round trip) x $30] + (1/2 hours x $30 spent shopping) = $131 neighboring city = $60 + [1 hour x 2 (round trip) x $30] + (1/2 hours x $30 spent shopping) = $135Juanita should purchase the skirt at the store across town because the total economic cost will be lowest ($131)
Opportunity costs are the benefits lost or extra costs incurred for choosing one activity or investment over another alternative. Economic costs include both accounting costs and opportunity costs.

A. Prices could skyrocket, making goods more difficult to buy.
B. Unemployment could rapidly rise, making it harder to find a
job.
C. GDP could rapidly fall, creating a recession in the economy.
D. All of the above
Answer: D. All of the above
Explanation:
Economic policies are the policies athat are out in place by the government in order to control economic activities.
These policies are used to reduce inflation, provide employment opportunities, increase standard of living, encourage economic growth etc.
If the government and Central Bank don't use economic policy, that s cs lead to inflation, increase in unemployment and fall in the GDP.

XYZ, Inc. is a seller of the good. XYZ sells a unit of the good to a buyer and then pays the tax on that unit to the government. XYZ is left with how much money
Answer: $2
Explanation:
The Supply curve S1 represents the supply before tax. The equilibrium price at this point is therefore $3.
With taxes, the supply curve is S2 and the equilibrium price has now gone up to $5.
The amount that XYZ will be left with after paying the tax is:
= Price after tax - price before tax
= 5 - 3
= $2

A year ago, Kim Altman purchased 160 shares of BLK, Inc. for $20.50 on margin. At that time the margin requirement was 40 percent. If the interest rate on borrowed funds was 12 percent and she sold the stock for $29.00, what is the percentage return on the funds she invested in the stock
Answer:
85.66%
Explanation:
Calculation for what is the percentage return on the funds she invested in the stock
First step is to calculate the Cost of the shares
Cost of the shares=160 × $20.50
Cost of the shares= $3,280
Second step is to calculate the Margin
Margin=$3,280 × 0.4
Margin= $1,312.00
Third step is to calculate the Funds borrowed
Funds borrowed= $3,280-$1,312.00
Funds borrowed= $1,968.00
Fourth Step is to calculate Interest paid
Interest paid=$1,968.00 × 0.12
Interest paid= $236.16
Fifth step is to calculate Profit on the stock
Profit on the stock=$4,640.00 - $3,280
Profit on the stock = $1,360
(160*29=$4,640.00)
Last step is to calculate the Return on the investment
Return on the investment:m= ($1,360.00 - $236.16)/$1,312.00
Return on the investment=$1,123.84/$1312.00
Return on the investment=85.66%
Therefore the percentage return on the funds she invested in the stock is 85.66%
Using the midpoint method, calculate the price elasticity of demand for Gondwanaland gosum berries. Explain what this price elasticity of demand means
Answer:
The data of the question is this:
YEAR Gosum Berries Price Per
Demand Barrel
107 700 $70
108 600 $84
Explanation:
The Mid-Point Formula to calculate the Price Elasticity of Demand is:
[ (Q2 - Q1) / (Q2 + Q1) / 2 ] this divided by [ (P2 - P1) / (P2 + P1) / 2 ]
where Q is demand, and P is price
Now, we plug the amounts into the formulas:
[ (600 - 700) / (600 + 700) / 2 ] = -0.038
[ (84 - 70) / (84 + 70) / 2 ] = 0.045
-0.038 / 0.045 = -0.844
Thus, the elasticity of demand for gosum berries, using the midpoint method, is -0.844, however, economists use absolute values for elasticities, so -0.844 becomes 0.844
An elasticity of demand of 0.844, which is less than one, indicates inelastic demand. This means that the quantity demanded for gosum berries falls less in proportion to raises in price.
In order worlds, the coefficient of elasticity of demand measures the price sensitivity of consumer demand for a particular good or service.

The Vaughn Inc., a manufacturer of low-sugar, low-sodium, low-cholesterol TV dinners, would like to increase its market share in the Sunbelt. In order to do so, Vaughn has decided to locate a new factory in the Panama City area. Vaughn will either buy or lease a site depending upon which is more advantageous. The site location committee has narrowed down the available sites to the following three very similar buildings that will meet their needs.
Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $615,000, useful life 28 years.
Building B: Lease for 28 years with annual lease payments of $71,570 being made at the beginning of the year.
Building C: Purchase for $659,900 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 28 years at a net annual rental of $6,870. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year. The Vaughn Inc. has no aversion to being a landlord.
Required:
In which building would you recommend that Brubaker Inc. locate, assuming a 12% cost of funds?
Answer:
The new factory should be located in building C.
Explanation:
This can be determined by comparing the present values of the cost of the three buildings and select the one with the lowest.
Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $615,000, useful life 28 years.
Present value of cost of building A = Cost of building A = $615,000
Building B: Lease for 28 years with annual lease payments of $71,570 being made at the beginning of the year.
Since the payments are to be made are the beginning of the year, the present value of the cost of the building can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value (PV) of annuity due given as follows:
PV of B = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) * (1 + r) .................................. (1)
Where ;
PV of B = Present value of the cost of building B = ?
P = Annual lease payments = $71,570
r = interest rate or cost of funds = 12%, or 0.12
n = number of years = 28
Substituting the values into equation (1) above, we have:
PV of B = $71,570 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.12))^28) / 0.12) * (1 + 0.12)
PV of B = $640,018.55
Present value of the cost of building B = $640,018.55
Building C: Purchase for $659,900 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 28 years at a net annual rental of $6,870. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year. The Vaughn Inc. has no aversion to being a landlord.
Cost of building C =$659,900
Since the annual rental from the sublet will be received at the end of each, the present value of the sublet can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV of sublet = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (2)
Where;
PV of sublet = Present value of the annual rental from the sublet = ?
P = Annuity rental from the sublet = $6,870
r = interest rate or cost of funds = 12%, or 0.12
n = number of years = 28
Substituting the values into equation (2) above, we have:
PV of sublet = $6,870 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.12))^28) / 0.12)
PV of sublet = $54,852.98
Present value of the cost of building C = Cost of building C - PV of sublet = $659,900 - $54,852.98 = $605,047.02
Conclusion
From the calculations above, we have the following:
Present value of cost of building A = $615,000
Present value of the cost of building B = $640,018.55
Present value of the cost of building C = $605,047.02
Since $605,047.02 which is the present value of the cost of building C is the lowest, the new factory should be located in building C.
The price of milk at the local grocery store is cut by 15%. In response to the price cut, the quantity of milk demanded falls by 5%. The absolute value of the price elasticity of demand for milk is _____, and the price elasticity of demand is
Answer:
the absolute value is -0.33 and it is inelastic
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
The Absolute value of Price Elasticity of Demand (PED) is
= Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded ÷ Percentage Change in Price
= 0.05 ÷ (-0.15)
= -0.33
Since the price elasticity of demand is less than one so here there is an inelastic demand
Therefore the absolute value is -0.33 and it is inelastic
The absolute value is -0.33 and the price elasticity of demand is inelastic .
"Price Elasticity of Demand"
Price elasticity of demand is the proportion of the rate alter in amount requested of a item to the rate alter in cost. Financial analysts utilize it to get it how supply and request alter when a product's cost changes.Formula :

Marine City Company sells bags of coffee. Each bag includes one coupon; five coupons (plus $3.00) are redeemable for a personalized coffee mug. In 2023, Marine City purchased 9,000 mugs at $4.20 each and sold 60,000 bags of coffee that year at $6.00 per bag. Marine City estimated that 50% of the coupons would be redeemed. Actual coupons redeemed were 8,000 in 2023 and 13,000 in 2024. The estimated liability for outstanding premiums on the 12/31/23 balance sheet is:
Answer:
$5,280
Explanation:
Coupon expected to be redeemed = 60000 bags * 0.50 = 30,000
Number of coffee mugs to be obtained against coupons = 30,000 / 5 = 6,000
Bags actually redeemed against coupons = 8000/5 = 1,600
Cash cost to the company = Cost of mug - Cash to be paid
Cash cost to the company = $4.20 - $3.00
Cash cost to the company = $1.20
Estimated liability = (6,000 - 1,600) * $1.20
Estimated liability = 4,400 * $1.20
Estimated liability = $5,280
So, the estimated liability for outstanding premiums on the 12/31/23 balance sheet is $5,280
