Four roommates are planning to spend the weekend in their dorm room watching old movies, and they are debating how many to watch. Here is their willingness to pay for each film:
Willingness to Pay (Dollars)
Antonio Dmitri Jake Nick
First film 10 9 8 3
Second film 8 7 6 2
Third film 6 5 4 1
Fourth film 4 3 2 0
Fifth film 2 1 0 0
Within the dorm room, the showing of a movie a public good. If it costs $12 to rent a movie, the roommates should rent movies in order to maximize the total surplus. Suppose the roommates choose to rent the optimal number of movies you just indicated and then split the cost of renting equally. This means that each roommate will pay $_____________ .
The roommates would rent 3 movies to maximise total surplus
Each roommate would pay $9
The roommates would watch the films that yields a positive consumer surplus
Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.
Consumer surplus = willingness to pay – price of the good
Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer is willing to pay for a good or service
Consumer surplus is positive if willingness to pay exceeds the price of the movie and it is negative when the price of the good exceeds the willingness to pay of the consumers
Total willingness to pay for the first movie = 10 + 9+ 8+ 3 = 30
Total willingness to pay ($30) exceeds the price of the movie ($12). Consumer surplus is positive. The first movie will be rented
Total willingness to pay for the second movie = 8+ 7+ 6+ 2 = 23
Total willingness to pay ($23) exceeds the price of the movie ($12). Consumer surplus is positive. The second movie will be rented.
Total willingness to pay for the third movie = 6+ 5+ 4+ 1 = 16
Total willingness to pay ($16) exceeds the price of the movie ($12). Consumer surplus is positive. The third movie will be rented.
Total willingness to pay for the fourth movie = 4+ 3+ 2+ 0 = 9
Total willingness to pay ($9) is less than the price of the movie ($12). Consumer surplus is negative. The fourth movie will be rented.
Only three movies would be rented.
Total cost of the 3 three movies = $12 x 3 = $36
Cost to each roommate if the bill is split equally = $36 / 4 = $9

Magazine sells subscriptions for for issues. The company collects cash in advance and then mails out the magazines to subscribers each month. Apply the revenue recognition principle to determine a. when Magazine should record revenue for this situation. b. the amount of revenue Magazine should record for issues. a. Seacoast Magazine should record revenue whe
Answer:
a. It should record revenue on a monthly basis
The Revenue Recognition principle in accounting posits that revenue should only be recognized after the goods and services that the revenue was paid for, have been delivered.
Seacoast Magazine has not delivered the magazine and will do so monthly for 18 months. It should therefore apportion profits to those months and only recognize the profit after the magazines are delivered.
b. Amount of revenue for 8 issues:
= 36/ 18 issues * 8 issues
= 2 * 8
= $16

July 9 100 311.50 411.50
July 16 100 304.10 406.90
July 23 100 318.20 416.00
July 30 100 293.60 397.50
1. Determine the ending balance of the cash short and over account.
2. Does it represent an expense or revenue?
Answer:
1. Ending balance of cash short and over account:
Ending cash = 100 beginning balance + Cash register amount - Actual cash counted
July 2 = 100 + 281.80 - 379.00
= $2.80 shortage because actual cash is less than it should be
July 9 = 100 + 311.50 - 411.50
= $0
July 16 = 100 + 304.10 - 406.90
= $2.80 surplus because actual cash is more
July 23 = 100 + 318.20 - 416.00
= $2.20 shortage
July 30 = 100 + 293.60 - 397.50
= $3.90 surplus
Balance = Surplus - shortages
= (3.90 + 2.80) - (2.80 + 2.20)
= $1.70
2. This is revenue because it is a surplus.

Tan Corporation of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 9,400,000 $ 24,000,000 Net operating income $ 752,000 $ 2,400,000 Average operating assets $ 2,350,000 $ 8,000,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 18%. Compute the residual income for each division.
Answer:
1. Osaka ROI 32 %
Yokohoma ROI 30%
2.Osaka Residual income $329,000
Yokohoma Residual income $960,000
Explanation:
1. Computation for return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover.
Using this formula
ROI = Net operating income/Average operating assets
Let plug in the morning
Osaka ROI = 752,000/2,350,000
Osaka ROI =32 %
Yokohoma ROI = 2,400,000/$ 8,000,000
Yokohoma ROI =30%
Therefore for return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover is :
Osaka ROI 32 %
Yokohoma ROI 30%
2. Computation for the residual income for each division.
Using this formula
Residual income = Net operating income - Required return
Let plug in the formula
Osaka Residual income= 752,000 - (2,350,000*18%)
Osaka Residual income= 752,000-423,000
Osaka Residual income = $329,000
Yokohoma Residual income = 2,400,000 - ($8,000,000*18%)
Yokohoma Residual income = 2,400,000-1,440,000
Yokohoma Residual income= $960,000
Therefore the residual income for each division is:
Osaka Residual income $329,000
Yokohoma Residual income $960,000
Froot Loop Inc., a cereal manufacturer, has variable costs of $0.40 per unit of product. In May, the volume of production was 25,000 units, and units sold were 21,600. The total production costs incurred were $30,600. What are the fixed costs per month
Answer:
the fixed cost per month is $20,600
Explanation:
The computation of the fixed cost is given below:
Fixed costs = Total Production Costs - Variable costs
= $30600 - $0.40 per unit × 25000 units
= $30600 - $10,000
= $20,600
hence, the fixed cost per month is $20,600
We simply deduct the variable cost from the total production cost so that the fixed cost could come
If Walmart (WMT) recently earned a profit of $5.10 per share and has a P/E ratio of 16.25. The dividend has been growing at a 6 percent rate over the past few years. If this growth continues, what would be the stock price in five years if the P/E ratio remained unchanged?
What would the price be if the P/E ratio declined to 12 in five years?
A) $41.44, $30.60 respectively
B) $82.88, $61.20 respectively
C) $110.91, $81.90 respectively
D) $414.38, $306.00 respectively
Answer:
C) $110.91, $81.90 respectively
Explanation:
Earning per share after year 5 = $5.10*(1+6%)^5
Earning per share after year 5 = $5.10*(1.06)^5
Earning per share after year 5 = $5.10*1.33823
Earning per share after year 5 = $6.825
If this growth continues, what would be the stock price in five years if the P/E ratio remained unchanged?
Price per share = P/E ratio * Earning per share
Price per share = 16.25*$6.825
Price per share = $110.91
What would the price be if the P/E ratio declined to 12 in five years?
Price per share = P/E ratio * Earning per share
Price per share = 12*$6.825
Price per share = $81.90

If Franklin sues under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Franklin will win and this will force IRC to accommodate his disability under this civil rights legislation.
The ADA law was passed to protect persons experiencing physical or mental impairment or disability against workplace discriminations.
While ALS is recognized as a progressive nervous system disease that surely affects Franklin's nerve cells in his brain and spinal cord, which has caused him to lose muscle control, he can still perform his duties as a research scientist at IRC.
Thus, Insight Research Corporation should accommodate Franklin and make the necessary changes, which have been determined to be relatively inexpensive to the company.
Thus, if IRC fails to accommodate Franklin and he sues the company in the court under ADA, he will prevail.

Front Company had net income of $73,500 based on variable costing. Beginning and ending inventories were 900 units and 1,400 units, respectively. Assume the fixed overhead per unit was $7.95 for both the beginning and ending inventory. What is net income under absorption costing
Answer:
$77,475
Explanation:
Calculation to determine net income under absorption costing
Using this formula
Net income=Net income+(Ending inventories×fixed overhead per unit)- (Beginning Inventories × Fixed overhead per unit)
Let plug in the formula
Net income=$73,500 + (1,400 units x $7.95) - (900 x $7.95)
Net income=$73,500+$11,130-$7,155
Net income=$77,475
Therefore net income under absorption costing is $77,475

Nate borrowed $38,672 from bank and his friends to expand his casino business. Nate set up an aim to pay $2,450 at the end of each week for 16 weeks. Assume each year has 52 weeks. What are the nominal rate per year and the effective interest rate per year?
Answer:
Hence, the Nominal annual rate is 20.28%.
Effective annual rate is 22.43%.
Explanation:
Amount borrowed = $38,672.
Weekly repayment for 16 weeks = $2,500.
Loan repayment = (Loan amount x r) / {1-(1+r)-n}
$2,450 = ($38,672 x r)/{1-(1+r)-16}
r= 0.39%
Weekly interest rate = 0.39%
Nominal annual rate = 0.39 % x 52 weeks = 20.28%
Effective annual rate = [tex](1 + 0.0039^{52} ) - 1[/tex] = 0.2243 = 22.43%

As operations manager, you are concerned about being able to meet sales requirements in the coming months. You have just been given the following production report: JAN FEB MAR APR Units produced 2,250 1,750 2,750 2,950 Hours per machine 318 194 393 315 Number of machines 5 7 6 5 Find the average of the monthly productivity figures (units per machine hour).
Answer: 2.81 per hour
Explanation:
Average monthly productivity = (January productivity + February productivity + March productivity + April productivity) / 4
January productivity:
= Units produced / ( Hours per machine * Number of machines )
= 2,250 / ( 318 * 2 )
= 3.537
February productivity:
= 1,750/ ( 194 * 4 )
= 2.255
March productivity:
= 2,750 / ( 393 * 3 )
= 2.332
April productivity:
= 2,950/ ( 315 * 3)
= 3.121
Average monthly productivity = (3.537 + 2.255 + 2.332 + 3.121)/ 4
= 2.81 per hour

Suppose that XYZ Company hires labor and capital in competitive input markets. Assume that labor costs $200 per day and that a unit of capital costs $150 per day. At the current level of production, labor's marginal product is 40 units of output produced per day and capital's marginal product is 30 units of output per day.
a) Given the information provided, is the firm minimizing the cost of current production? Explain why or why not.
b) If the daily wages were to increase, explain the long run adjustments that the firm would likely make in response to the wage increase.
Answer:
a) Yes, the firm is minimizing the cost of current production. This is because MRPL / w = MRPC / r = 0.20.
b) The long run adjustments that the firm would likely make in response to the wage increase is to use more labor and less capital until MRPL / w = MRPC / r, which is the condition for the cost minimization of a firm.
Explanation:
a) Given the information provided, is the firm minimizing the cost of current production? Explain why or why not.
The condition for the cost minimization of a firm is as follows:
MRPL / w = MRPC / r ……………………………. (1)
Where:
MRPL = Labor's marginal product = 40
w = Cost of labour = $200
MRPC = Capital's marginal product = 30
r = Cost of capital = 150
Therefore, we have:
MRPL / w = 40 / 200 = 0.20
MRPC / r = 30 / 150 = 0.20
Since MRPL / w = MRPC / r = 0.20, this implies that these conditions are consistent with equation (1). Therefore, the firm is minimizing the cost of current production.
b) If the daily wages were to increase, explain the long run adjustments that the firm would likely make in response to the wage increase.
If the daily wages were to increase, the MRPL / w in equation (1) in part a above will fall and we will have:
MRPL / w < MRPC / r …………………… (2)
Since equation (2) is no longer consistent with equation (1), the firm is NOT minimizing the cost of current production.
Therefore, the long run adjustments that the firm would likely make in response to the wage increase is to use more labor and less capital until MRPL / w = MRPC / r, which is the condition for the cost minimization of a firm.
What would happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of lattés if the cost to produce steamed milk, which is used to make lattés, increased, and scientists discovered that lattés lead to a longer life expectancy? Group of answer choices The equilibrium quantity would decrease, and the effect on equilibrium price would be ambiguous. Both the equilibrium price and quantity would increase. Both the equilibrium price and quantity would decrease. The equilibrium price would increase, and the effect on equilibrium quantity would be ambiguous.
Answer:
The equilibrium price would increase, and the effect on equilibrium quantity would be ambiguous.
Explanation:
The equilibrium price would increase, and the effect on equilibrium quantity would be ambiguous.
The increase in the cost of production will decrease the supply so the supply curve will shift leftward and simultaneously the research by scientists says the consumption of lattes will increase the life expectancy so many people will start consuming t os demand curve will shift rightwards. That means equilibrium price will increase but change in quantity can not be determined.
On August 1, Batson Company issued a 60-day note with a face amount of $49,800 to Jergens Company for merchandise inventory. (Assume a 360-day year is used for interest calculations.) a. Determine the proceeds of the note assuming the note carries an interest rate of 8%. fill in the blank 1 b. Determine the proceeds of the note assuming the note is discounted at 8%.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Determine the proceeds of the note assuming the note carries an interest rate of 8%.
The proceeds of the note is the face value which is $49800.
b. Determine the proceeds of the note assuming the note is discounted at 8%.
Face amount: $49800
Less: Interest = $49800 × 8% × 60/360 = $664
Proceed of the note = $49136
MC Qu. 120 Levelor Company's flexible budget shows... Levelor Company's flexible budget shows $10,640 of overhead at 75% of capacity, which was the operating level achieved during May. However, the company applied overhead to production during May at a rate of $2.20 per direct labor hour based on a budgeted operating level of 6,050 direct labor hours (90% of capacity). If overhead actually incurred was $11,106 during May, the controllable variance for the month was:
Answer: $466 Unfavorable
Explanation:
The Controllable variance is found by the formula:
= Flexible budget overhead - Actual Overhead incurred
= 10,640 - 11,106
= -$466
As this is a negative, it is an Unfavorable variance because it shows that actual overhead was higher than planned.
The aggregate expenditure (AE) curve Group of answer choices includes expenditures on foreign as well as domestic goods. does not include expenditures on either imports or exports. includes expenditures by domestic residents only. includes all expenditures on domestic goods.
Answer:
includes all expenditures on domestic goods.
Explanation:
AE curve is a combined current value of all the finished goods ad services in the economy. AE curve assumes a fixed price level, here the level of condition, expenditure and net imports would change. The equation of curve is AE = C + I + G + NX.
