Answer:
a. 3,795 units
b. $1,897.50
c. $2,845.80
d. $42,693.80
Explanation:
Optimum size for the Production ran is the size that minimizes Set-up costs and Holding costs.
Optimum size for the Production = √ (2 × Annual Production × Set-up cost) / Holding Cost per unit
Optimum size for the Production = √ (2 × 600 × 300 × $200) / $5.00
= 3,794.73 or 3,795 units
Average Holding Cost = Optimum size for the Production / 2
= 3,795 units / 2
= $1,897.50
Set - up Cost = Total Annual Production / Optimum size for the Production × Set - up cost per unit
= ((600 × 300) / 3,795)× $5.00
= $237.15
Annual cost = $237.15 × 12
= $2,845.80
Total Cost Calculation
Purchase Price (3,795 × $10) = $37,950.50
Holding Cost = $1,897.50
Set - up Cost = $2,845.80
Total Cost = $42,693.80
POQ = Optimum size for the Production / Annual Demand
= 3,795 units / (300 × 600)
= 0.021
Suppose that nominal GDP was $9000000.00 in 2005 in Orange County California. In 2015, nominal GDP was $12000000.00 in Orange County California. The price level rose 3.00% between 2005 and 2015, and population growth was 4.50%. Calculate the following figures for Orange County California between 2005 and 2015. Give all answers to two decimals. a. Nominal GDP growth was %.
Nominal GDP growth was __%
Economic growth was __%
Inflation was __%
Real GDP growth was __%
Per capita GDP growth was __%
Real per capita GDP growth was __%
Answer:
i. Norminal GDP growth
National GDP growth = Nominal GDP (current year) - Nominal GDP (base year) / Nominal GDP (base year) * 100
=(12,000,000 - 9,000,000) / 9,000,000 * 1000
= 3,000,000 / 9,000,000 * 100
=33.33%
Hence, the nominal GDP growth is 33.33%
ii. Economic growth
Economic growth = {GDP (current year) / GDP (base year) - 1 } * 100
= {12,000,000 / 9,000,000 - 1} * 100
=(1.33 - 1) * 100
= 0.33 * 100
= 33%
Hence, the economic growth is 33.33%
iii. Inflation
The inflation is the situation of increase in the general price level of the goods and services produced by the economy. Here, the price level rose by 3%, so the inflation become 3%
iv. Real GDP growth
Real GDP growth = Nominal GDP growth - Inflation
= 33.33% - 3%
= 30.33%
Hence, the real GDP growth is 30.33%
v. Per Capita GDP growth
Per Capita GDP growth = Nominal GDP growth - Population growth
= 33.33% - 4.50%
= 28.83%
Hence, the Per Capita GDP growth is 28.83%
vi Real Per Capita GDP
Real Per Capita GDP = Real GDP growth - Population growth
= 30.33% - 4.50%
= 25.83%
Hence, the Real Per Capita GDP growth is 25.83%

Profit or Loss on New Stock Issue Security Brokers Inc. specializes in underwriting new issues by small firms. On a recent offering of Beedles Inc., the terms were as follows: Price to public: $5 per share Number of shares: 3 million Proceeds to Beedles: $14,000,000 The out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Security Brokers in the design and distribution of the issue were $340,000. What profit or loss would Security Brokers incur if the issue were sold to the public at the following average price? $5 per share? Use minus sign to enter loss, if any. $ $6.25 per share? Use minus sign to enter loss, if any. $ $4.25 per share? Use minus sign to enter loss, if any.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of profit or loss is shown below:
The formula used is
= (Price × number of shares) - proceeds to Beedles - out of pocket expenses
a. For $5 per share
= ($5 × 3 million shares) - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $15,000,000 - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $660,000
b. For $6.25 per share
= ($6.25 × 3 million shares) - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $18,750,000 - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $4,410,000
c. For $5 per share
= ($4.25 × 3 million shares) - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= $12,750,000 - $14,000,000 - $340,000
= -$1,590,000

Currently Acre is charged $3,693,600 Depreciation on the Income Statement of Andrews. Andrews is planning for an increase in this depreciation. On the financial statements of Andrews will this?
Answer: C)Increase Net Cash from Operations on the Cash Flow Statement
Explanation:
The Cash Flow Statement deals with only cash transactions of a business in an effort to know just how much actual cash the business has. The Operations section of the Cash Flow Statement is derived from the Net Income and to get to the Net Income, Depreciation is removed. Because Depreciation is a non-cash expense, and does not actually reduce cash, it is added back when calculating cash from Operations. A larger depreciation therefore would bring in more cash from Operations in the Cash Flow statement.
At each calendar year-end, Mazie Supply Co. uses the percent of accounts receivable method to estimate bad debts. On December 31, 2017, it has outstanding accounts receivable of $55,000, and it estimates that 2% will be uncollectible. Prepare the adjusting entry to record bad debts expense for year 2017 under the assumption that the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has: (a) a $415 credit balance before the adjustment. (b) a $291 debit balance before the adjustment.
Answer:
Mazie Supply Co.
Adjusting entries under the assumptions that the allowance for doubtful accounts has:
a) A $415 credit balance before the adjustment:
Debit Bad Debts Expense $685
Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $685
To record the bad debts expense for the year.
b) A $291 debit balance before the adjustment:
Debit Bad Debts Expense $1,391
Credit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $1,391
To record bad debts expense and bring the allowance for doubtful accounts to a balance of $1,100.
Explanation:
a) Accounts Receivable outstanding = $55,000
Uncollectible estimate of 2% = $1,100
b) With a credit balance of $415, the balance will be brought to $1,100 with an adjusting amount of $685 ($1,100 - $415).,
c) With a debit balance of $291, the balance will be brought to $1,100 with an adjusting amount of $1,391 ($1,100 + 291).
d) When the allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance, the bad debts expense is calculated as the difference between the new balance and the old credit balance. But, if the allowance for doubtful accounts has a debit balance, the bad debts expense would be the addition of the estimated allowance and the debit balance. These actions will respectively bring the balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts to the new estimated balance.

Suppose that Best National Bank currently has $150,000 in demand deposits and $97,500 in outstanding loans. The Federal Reserve has set the reserve requirement at 10%.
Reserves=
Required Reserves=
Excess Reserves=
Answer:
Reserves = $52,500
Required Reserves = $15,000
Excess Reserves = $37,500
Explanation:
Reserves of a bank refers to deposits held by the bank that have not be given out as loan. It is deposits minus loan. Reserves of the Best National Bank can therefore be calculated as follows:
Reserves = Demand deposits - Outstanding loans = $150,000 - $97,500 = $52,500
Required Reserves refers to the portion of the deposits of a bank that is legally required by the regulatory to be kept as reserves that cannot be loaned out by the bank. Required Reserves of Best National Bank can be calculated as follows:
Required Reserves = Demand deposits * Reserve requirement = $150,000 * 10% = $15,000
Excess Reserves refers to the reserves held by a bank in excess of its required required reserves. Therefore, excess reserves can be given out as loan by the bank. It is can be calculated as reserve minus required reserve for Best National Bank as follows:
Excess Reserves = Reserves - Required Reserves = $52,500 - $15,000 = $37,500
Based on the above, we have the following for Best National Bank:
Reserves = $52,500
Required Reserves = $15,000
Excess Reserves = $37,500

AA Companies has identified two mutually exclusive projects. Project A has cash flows of - $20,000, $5,000, $10,500, and $11,500 for Years 0 to 3, respectively. Project B has a cost of $20,000 and annual cash inflows of $9,500, and $16,000 for Years 2 to 3, respectively. At what rate would you be indifferent between these two projects
Answer:
At the Internal Rate of Return (IRR).
Explanation:
The Internal rate of return is the Interest rate that will make the Present Value of Cash Flows equal to the price or cost of the initial investment. This rate gives a Net Present Value of zero.
If at that rate both Project A and Project B give a Net Present Value of zero, you will be indifferent (the choice is the same irregardless of the alternative chosen).
Project that provide for a return greater than the Internal Rate of Return must be chosen.

Explanation:
If the wages of factory worker increases, it becomes more expensive to hire workers, the cost of production increases and the demand for labour would fall. as a result, production would fall and the supply of tablets would fall. a decrease in supply leads to an inward shift of the supply curve. as a result of the fall in supply, quantity would fall and there would be a rise in price.
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good. If the price of notebooks falls, it becomes cheaper to purchase notebooks, so the quantity demanded of notebooks would rise and the demand for tablets would fall since it is cheaper to buy a tablet. the demand curve for tablets would shift in as a result of the fall in demand. As a result, price and quantity of tablets would fall.
Increase in the number of manufactures would lead to an increase in supply. this would cause a rise in the supply of tablets. when there is a rise in supply, the supply curve shifts out, prices fall and quantity increases.
the new game would increase demand for tablets because people would be interested in playing the game. as a result of the rise in demand, the demand curve would shift out, the quantity would rise and prices would rise
A complement is a good that is consumed together with another good. if the price of apps rise, it would become more expensive to buy apps as result the demand for tablets would fall. the demand curve would shift in and price and quantity would fall
When the wages of factory worker increases, it becomes more expensive to hire workers, also the cost of production increases, and also the demand for labor would fall. as a result, when the production would fall also the supply of tablets would fall. when a decrease in supply leads to an inward shift of the supply curve. Although as a result of the fall in supply, the quantity would fall, and also there would be a price rise.
When Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good. also If the price of notebooks falls, it becomes cheaper to purchase notebooks, so the quantity demanded of notebooks would rise, and also the demand for tablets would fall since it is cheaper to buy a tablet. the demand curve for tablets would shift in as a result of the fall in demand. So As a result, the price and also the number of tablets would fall.

Balance,December 31 $996,000 Balance, December 31 $710,000
The long-term expected rate of return on plan assets is 8%. Assuming no other data are relevant, what is the pension expense for the year
From the information given;we have the plan assets to be $530000
the expected rate of return on plan assets = 8%
therefore
expected return on the plan assets = 8% × $530000
expected return on the plan assets = 0.08 × $530000
expected return on the plan assets = $42400
The pension expense for the year can be determined by the formula:
pension expense = service cost + interest cost - expected return on plan
assets.
pension expense = $(369000 + 74000 -42400)
pension expense = $(443000 - 42400)
pension expense = $400600
