Answer:
Increase taxes and decrease government spending
Explanation:
Fiscal policy is used to bring an economy back to normal.
When the economy is at full investment and planned investment is greater than savings, the best policy action would be to Increase taxes and decrease government spending. By increasing taxes there would be a fall in disposable income and household spending would decrease.
Changes in fiscal policy has effects on GDP, unemployment, and inflation. In this question this would be contractionary fiscal policy. Aggregate demand would fall and there would be lower output, lower employment and lower price level
What is the present worth of an equal quarterly payment series of $2,000 for six years, if the interest rate is 8% per year, compounded quarterly?
Answer:
PV= $37,827.85
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cf= $2,000 quarterly
Number of periods= 4*6= 24
i= 0.08/4= 0.02
To calculate the present worth, first, we need to determine the future value using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {2,000*[(1.02^24) - 1]} / 0.02
FV= $60,843.72
Now, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 60,843.72/(1.02^24)
PV= $37,827.85

Dr Notes receivable 33,900
Cr Sales revenue 33,900
Explanation:
Non interest bearing notes must be recorded at present value, so we need to determine the present value of the payment:
Payment due December 21, 2021, PV = $39,700 / (1 + 8%) = $36,759.26
Payment due December 21, 2022, PV = $39,700 / (1 + 8%)² = $34,036.35
We use the discount on notes receivable account (contra asset account) to decrease the net value of notes receivable.
You are pitching a marketing proposal to a company that sells electronic equipment. For a particular product line, their current sales price is $20 per unit, cost is $9 per unit and they have $20,000 in fixed costs associated with this line. Last year, they sold 8,200 units. You are proposing that the company implement your marketing plan which will cost $3,000 per year. You believe this will increase their sales units by 350 units. Calculate the contribution margin ratio at the projected levels, the projected change in operating income of your proposal and the projected ROI. Additionally, if the company requires a 12% return on its investments, calculate the maximum you could charge for your marketing plan.

a. is difficult to transfer.
b. is more easily transferable than ownership in other forms of organization.
c. is transferred in much the same way as stock in a partnership.
d. noticeably affects the operation of the business.
Answer:

Max Company uses 20,000 units of Part A in producing its products. A supplier offers to make Part A for $7. Max Company has relevant costs of $8 a unit to manufacture Part A. If there is excess capacity, the opportunity cost of not buying Part A from the supplier is:________
a) $20,000.
b) $0.
c) $160,000.
d) $140,000.
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
Max company makes use of 20,000 units of part A to manufacture its product
A supplier offers to produce part A for $7
Max company has relevant costs to $8 per unit to produce part A
Therefore, the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier can be calculated as follows
Opportunity cost= 20,000 units of part A($8-$7)
= 20,000 units×$1
= 20,000×$1
= $20,000
Hence the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier when there is excess capacity is $20,000
A 25-year, $1,000 par value bond has an 8.5% annual payment coupon. The bond currently sells for $925. If the yield to maturity remains at its current rate, what will the price be 5 years from now
Answer:
$ 930.20
Explanation:
We need to first of all determine the yield to maturity using excel rate function:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of annual coupons i.e 25
pmt is the annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*8.5%=$85
pv is the current market price of $925
fv is the face value of $1000
=rate(25,85,-925,1000)=9.28%
In 5 years time,the bond would have 20 years remaining to maturity, as a result, only 20 years coupon would be left to be paid.
The formula for bond price is excel pv function given below:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
=-pv(9.28% ,20,85,1000)=$ 930.20
The value of Mike Jackson’s shares in the New Frontiers Technology Fund is $51,400. The management fee for this particular fund is 0.80 percent of the total asset value. Calculate the management fee Mike must pay this year. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
$411.2
Explanation:
The value of Mike Jackson's shares in the New frontiers technology fund is $51,400
The management fee is 0.80%
= 0.80/100
= 0.008
Therefore, the amount of management fee that Mike must pay this year can be calculated as follows
Management fee= Total amount of investment × management fee percent
= $51,400×0.008
= $411.2
Hence the management percent fee that Mike must pay this year is $411.2
When a multi-product plant is being operated at capacity, the products that should be emphasized are those that provide the highest contribution margin:_______.
a. ratio.
b. per sales dollar.
c. per unit of product.
d. per unit of the limited resource.
Answer: per unit of the limited resources.
Explanation:
When a multi-product plant is being operated at the full capacity, it is necessary for the manager that is in charge of the multi-product plant to select the products that provide the highest contribution margin per unit of the limited resources.
This is typically a short run decision and helps to know which product to emphasize.
You invest a single amount of $14,800 for 7 years at 15 percent. At the end of 7 years you take the proceeds and invest them for 14 years at 17 percent. How much will you have after 21 years
Answer:
Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11
Explanation:
The value of an amount invested at a certain rate of return for certain number of years where interest compounded annually is known as the future value.
The future value of an investment can be determined using the future value formula. This formula is stated below:
FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)
FV - Future Value , PV- Present Value, r-rate of return, n- number of years
For the first round of investment 15% for 7 years, future value would be:
FV = 14,800 × (1.15)^(7) = 39,368.29
Second round of investing 17% for 14 year, future value would be
FV = 39,368.29 × (1.17)^(14)= 354,608.11
Future Value =$354,608.11
Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11
Sage Company is operating at 90% of capacity and is currently purchasing a part used in its manufacturing operations for $15.00 per unit. The unit cost for the business to make the part is $22.00, including fixed costs, and $12.00, excluding fixed costs. If 38,423 units of the part are normally purchased during the year but could be manufactured using unused capacity, what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it?
Answer:
$115,269 decrease
Explanation:
Below are the following information given in the question.
Purchase price = $15
Variable cost per unit = $12
Fixed cost per unit = $10. i.e $22-$10
Production in units = 38,423
N.B. As in the above scenario, we will need to factor in the variable cost per unit only in order to determine whether it is convenient to make the part in house or purchase it. Also, we will have to ignore fixed costs because of the fact that it is constant in the option of whether to buy or make part in house.
Therefore,
Option at purchasing/Buying
= $38,423 × $15
= $576,345
Option at making the part in house
= $38,423 × $12
= $461,076
Cost difference is therefore = $115,269 decrease

Polly Smith, a supervisor at Kroger's, was recently evaluated by her subordinates. Their responses indicated that Polly uses Theory X assumptions when dealing with employees. For example, one of the comments indicated that she treats employees as if they:_______.
a. naturally like work.
b. will work toward goals they are committed to.
c. have little ambition.
d. have the potential to accomplish the organization's goals.
e. seek out and accept responsibility.
Answer:
c. have little ambition.
Explanation:
Theory X is a theory that refers to people's behavior at work and suggests that managers tend to think that people are not motivated and don't like to work, avoid responsibility, don't have ambition and because of that, they have to be rewarded or punished to complete their job. According to that, the answer is that for example, one of the comments indicated that she treats employees as if they have little ambition because theory X says that managers have a negative opinion of people.
The other options are not right because they all refer to theory Y in which managers tend to have a positive view of their workers and think that they like their work, are motivated and are willing to take responsibility.

Gabriele enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with seven years to maturity, a par value of 1000, and selling for 962. At this price, this price, the bonds yield 6.6 percent.
What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?
Answer:
The answer is =5.91%
Explanation:
N(Number of periods) = 7 years
I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 6.6percent
PV(present value or market price) = $962
PMT( coupon payment) = ?
FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.
We are using a Financial calculator for this.
N= 7; I/Y = 6.6; PV = -962; FV= $1,000; CPT PMT= $59.05

Your firm has total sales of $22,980, costs of $14,715, and depreciation of $6,045. The tax rate is 34 percent. There are no interest expenses or other income. What is the operating cash flow?
Answer:
Thus, Operating cash flow for company is $7,510.20.
Explanation:
Total Sales = $22,980
Cost of goods sold = $14,715
Depreciation = $6,045
Profit before tax = Total Sales – Cost of goods sold – Depreciation
= $22,980 – $14,715 – $6,045
=$2,220
Profit before tax is $2,220
Tax rate = 34%
Net profit = profit before tax × (1 – 34%)
= $1,465.20
Net profit for company is $1,465.20.
Operating cash flow = Net profit + Depreciation
= $1,465.20 + $6,045
= $7,510.20
Thus, Operating cash flow for company is $7,510.20.
In May direct labor was 35% of conversion cost. If the manufacturing overhead for the month was $116,350 and the direct materials cost was $20,200, the direct labor cost was:
Answer:
Direct labor= $62,650
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
In May direct labor was 35% of conversion cost.
The manufacturing overhead for the month was $116,350.
The conversion costs are the sum of the direct labor and the manufacturing overhead:
Overhead= 65%= 116,350
Direct labor= 35%= ?
First, we need to determine the total amount of conversion costs:
Conversion costs= 116,350/0.65= 179,000
Now, the direct labor cost:
Direct labor= 179,000*0.35
Direct labor= $62,650

The Atlantic Company sells a product for $150 per unit. The variable cost is $60 per unit, and fixed costs are $270,000. What is the break-even point in sales units?_____________________________________ What is the break-even points in sales units if the company desires a target profit of $36,000?
Answer:
The break even units are 3000 units and when it desires the profit of $36000 then sales unit is 3400 units.
Explanation:
The selling price of a product (SP) = $150 per unit.
Variable cost (VC) = $60 per unit.
Fixed cost of the company = $270000
Break-even units can be calculated by dividing the fixed cost from the difference in selling price and variable cost.
Break even Units = (fixed cost) / ( SP – VC)
= 270000 / (150-60)
= 3000 units.
Break-even units when a company desires a profit of $36000.
Desired units for sales = (Fixed Cost + Profit)/ Contribution per unit
= (270,000 + 36,000) / (150 - 60)
= 3,400 units
