Assume you are the CEO of Black Diamond, a global organization. You realize that some of the people in your organization are more comfortable working in a strong hierarchy while others prefer to work more like colleagues with their managers than as leaders. You have a project that requires highly structured reporting relationships with a clear hierarchy because it is a joint venture project. You believe people from some cultures may not feel comfortable with such a strong hierarchical relationship. In this case, you might seek to put people on the project who are from a country: ________
A. High uncertainty avoidance
B. High collectivism
C. High assertiveness
D. High power distance
Answer:
The correct answer is the option D: High power distance.
Explanation:
To begin with, the anthropological concept known as "High Power Distance" is specifically refered to the relationship that exists between the members of a community in where there are established ranks and places that everybody has to follow and obey, knowing that there are high powers and low powers. Therefore that this concept was used in communities to see how the cultures were important to affect the tasks of the groups and how they collaborate with each other. That is why, that in the case presented it would be better to find people who came from a culture with high power distance due to the fact that they will be more comfortable working with a highly structured and strong hierarchy.
Jan Gentry is the owner of a small company that produces electric scissors used to cut fabric. The annual demand is 8,000 scissors, and Jan produces the scissors in batches. On average, Jan can produce 150 scissors per day, and during the production pro-cess, demand for scissors has been about 40 scissors per day. The cost to set up the production process is $100, and it costs Jan 30 cents to carry one pair of scissors for one year. How many scissors should Jan produce in each batch
Answer:
2,697 scissors per batch
Explanation:
Q = √[2KD / h(1 - x)]
K = setup cost = $100D = annual demand = 8,000h = annual holding cost = $0.30x = annual demand / annual production rate = 8,000 / (150 x 200) = 0.267Q = √{(2 x $100 x $8,000) / [$0.30 x (1 - 0.267)]} = √($1,600,000 / 0.22) = 2,696.8 ≈ 2,697 scissors per batch
You and your friends hike a total of 8 miles to the nearest campsite (Activity A). Upon arriving you break off into teams. One team will set up tents and hammocks for everyone to sleep in (Activity B). At the same time, another team will get wood for a fire (Activity C). Once they have the wood, that same team then proceeds to start the fire (Activity D). The third team will walk to find water (Activity E) and once they find it they will to collect water and bring it back to camp (Activity F). Once the fire is ready and the water is brought back to camp the two groups- the one collecting firewood and the one collecting water- will then purify the water (Activity G). Once the camp is set up and the water is purified everyone will come together and cook dinner around the campfire (Activity H). Once dinner is prepared and eaten half of the group stays behind to put out the fire (Activity I) and half of the group walks away from the campsite to dispose of the food waste (Activity J). After disposing of the food waste the second half of the group returns to the camp (Activity K). Once everyone is at the campsite the day of camping ends

d. 4.43; Yes, the city has a competitive advantage in this industry
Answer:
a. 0.23; No, the city does not have a competitive advantage in this industry
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the location quotient for Music City and whether this city has a competitive advantage in the entertainment industry
Location quotient for Music City= (3020/ 656,785)/ (2,160,970/ 106,201,232)
Location quotient for Music City=0.004598/0.020347881
Location quotient for Music City= 0.225
Location quotient for Music City= 0.23 (Approximately)
Based on the above calculation the city does NOT have a competitive advantage in this industry.
Suppose the government imposes a tax on cheese. The deadweight loss from this tax will likely be greater in the a. eighth year after it is imposed than in the first year after it is imposed because demand and supply will be less elastic in the first year than in the eighth year. b. first year after it is imposed than in the eighth year after it is imposed because demand and supply will be less elastic in the first year than in the eighth year. c. first year after it is imposed than in the eighth year after it is imposed because demand and supply will be more elastic in the first year than in the eighth year.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Deadweight loss of tax measures the decrease in demand as a result of an increase in tax
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Price elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of quantity supplied to changes in price of the good.
Demand is less elastic in the short run because there is no enough time for consumers to find suitable and cheaper substitutes. As time goes on, demand becomes more elastic because consumers would have had enough time to find cheaper substitutes
Supply is also less elastic in the short time and more elastic in the long run
Below, you are provided with the value of the income elasticity of demand for a good. You will use this information to identify the percentage change in the quantity demanded for that good that arises from a particular percentage change in the average income of consumers. You will also identify whether the good is a normal good or an inferior good.
The income elasticity of demand captures the percent change in the__________ (quantity demanded, price) of a good or service that results from a percent change in the average income of consumers.
Answer:
quantity demanded

A young graduate looks to save money to buy a house 5.00 years from today. He is somewhat conservative and will invest his money in a bond fund that pays 6.00% APR with quarterly compounding. The graduate invests $12,370.00 today. How much will his account be worth in 5.00 years
Answer:
FV= $16,660.60
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Number of periods= 5*4= 20 quarters
Interest rate= 0.06/4= 0.015
Initital investment= $12,370
To calculate the future value after 5 years, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 12,370*(1.015^20)
FV= $16,660.60
The smallest amount you must pay each month on a loan is called the A. annual percentage rate B. annual fee C. minimum finance charge D. minimum monthly payment SUBMIT
Answer: D. minimum monthly payment
Explanation:
The minimum monthly payment is the lowest that a person should pay per month on a loan, particularly that of a credit card, if they do not want to be ruled as being in default.
The advantage of this is that the person will still be in good standing with the creditor meaning that they have not defaulted (really bad for credit score). Disadvantage is that the loan interest will be higher as it is based on a larger balance than had the person paid more.
The LFH Corporation makes and sells a single product, Product T. Each unit of Product T requires 1.5 direct labor-hours at a rate of $10.50 per direct labor-hour. The direct labor workforce is fully adjusted each month to the required workload. LFH Corporation needs to prepare a Direct Labor Budget for the second quarter of next year. The company has budgeted to produce 28,000 units of Product T in June. The finished goods inventories on June 1 and June 30 were budgeted at 800 and 600 units, respectively. Budgeted direct labor costs for June would be:
Answer:
$441,000
Explanation:
Budgeted direct labor cost = Budgeted production * Hours per unit * Rate per hour
Budgeted direct labor cost = 28,000 units * 1.5 DLH * $10.50
Budgeted direct labor cost = $441,000
So, budgeted direct labor cost for June would be $441,000

M. K. Gallant is president of Kranbrack Corporation, a company whose stock is traded on a national exchange. In a meeting with investment analysts at the beginning of the year, Gallant had predicted that the company’s earnings would grow by 20% this year. Unfortunately, sales have been less than expected for the year, and Gallant concluded within two weeks of the end of the fiscal year that it would be impossible to report an increase in earnings as large as predicted unless some drastic action was taken. Accordingly, Gallant has ordered that wherever possible, expenditures should be postponed to the new year—including canceling or postponing orders with suppliers, delaying planned maintenance and training, and cutting back on end-of-year advertising and travel. Additionally, Gallant ordered the company’s controller to carefully scrutinize all costs that are currently classified as period costs and reclassify as many as possible as product costs. The company is expected to have substantial inventories at the end of the year.
1. Why would reclassifying period costs as product costs increase this period’s reported earnings?
2. Do you believe Gallant’s actions are ethical? Why or why not?
Suppose we want to highlight the year number for each year during which sales were at least 5% higher than the previous year. We would begin by selecting the cell range D6:D12 and choose Conditional Formatting from the Ribbon. Then you would select new rules followed by the Use a Formula option. Finally you would enter the following formula.
Year Actual Sales Cumulative Sales
1 77 77

B. ($E$6/E5)>1.05.
C. (E6/E5)>1.05.
D. (E6/E5)>.05.
Answer:
c) E6/E5 > 1.05
Option C is the correct option.
Explanation:
Data Given:
Year Actual Sales Cumulative Sales
1 77 77
2 58 135
3 78 213
4 40 253
5 42 295
6 44 339
7 74 413
8 83 496
The formula, we have to use in this question is:
c) E6/E5 > 1.05
Option C is the correct option.
Actual Sales/Previous Sales > (1+r)
r = 5%
r = 0.05
Actual Sales/Previous Sales > (1 + 0.05)
Actual Sales/ Previous Sales > (1.05)
Here, the sales were at least 5% higher than the previous year sales. Therefore, the correct formula here we need to enter in Excel Spread Sheet is "E6/E5 > 1.05"
Where, E is the name of the cell in the Excel Spreadsheet.

Explanation:
During the last financial crisis, it was discovered that the financial sector was not sufficiently supervised. They tended to run their institutions without regard to the financial disasters that their activities might generate in the economy. To forecast financial recklessness, Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act in 2010. The Act created a new agency for consumer protection in the financial sector. It promoted financial stability by improving accountability and transparency, especially with regard to derivative transactions. It took steps to curtail excessive risk-taking by financial institutions.
Scenario #3: Isaiah
Isaiah is in his 50s and currently does not have a retirement fund. However, he recently read a few articles about the insufficient savings of people in retirement and, as a result, he decides he wants to start now. He saves $500 per month for 15 years and earns 7% by investing in the stock market* through an index fund.
9. What is the total balance in the account after 15 years?
10. How much of the total did Isaiah contribute himself?
11. How much money did Isaiah make through compounded returns in this investment account?
12. Explain why Isaiah’s total balance is less than Pamela’s even though his money earned the same rate of return and his monthly contribution was higher than hers.
______________________________________________________
Question 4: If someone you know wanted to start investing, what best practices would you recommend they follow so they can harness the power of compounding? Explain your reasoning.
please hurry
Answer:
did anyone ever get the answer to this?
Explanation:
9. The total balance in Isaiah's retirement savings account at the end of 15 years is $159,405.62.
10. The total amount that Isaiah contributed to the savings account is $90,000.
11. Through compounded returns in the investment account, Isaiah earned interest income of $69,405.62.
12. The reason Isaiah's account balance is less than Pamela's is because Isaiah started contributing in his 50s, while Pamela started in her 30s.
13. The best strategy to harness the power of compounding is to start saving early. If it were possible, start saving in your 20s. When you start savings early, the investor reaps greatly from the power of multiplication inherent in compounding interest.
Data and Calculations:
Monthly savings into retirement account = $500
Period of savings = 15 years or 180 months
Interest rate = 7%
N (# of periods) = 180 months (15 years x 12)
I/Y (Interest per year) = 7%
PV (Present Value) = 0
PMT (Periodic Payment) = $500
Results
FV (Future Value) = $159,405.62
Sum of all periodic payments = $90,000.00 ($500 x 180)
Total Interest = $69,405.62
Thus, if Isaiah had started saving in his 30s like Pamela, he could be having $905,780.38 in his retirement savings account by the time he is 65 years old.

Sue would like to save up for a down payment on a home she hopes to purchase in 5 years. If she wishes to have $20,000 saved up at the end of five years and can earn 3.5% annually in her savings account. If she would like to make equal annual deposits, what amount will her deposits need to be in order to reach her goal
Answer:
Annual deposit= $3,729.63
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future value (FV)= $20,000
Number of periods (n)= 5 years
Interest rate (i)= 3.5% = 0.035
To calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
A= (20,000*0.035) / [(1.035^5) - 1]
A= $3,729.63

On September 30, 2012, Wildhorse Company issued 9% bonds with a par value of $580,000 due in 20 years. They were issued at 97 and were callable at 103 at any date after September 30, 2017. Because Wildhorse Company was able to obtain financing at lower rates, it decided to call the entire issue on September 30, 2018, and to issue new bonds. New 7% bonds were sold in the amount of $700,000 at 104; they mature in 20 years. Wildhorse Company uses straight-line amortization. Interest payment dates are March 31 and September 30.

Dr. Ruth is going to borrow $8,700 to help write a book. The loan is for one year and the money can be borrowed at either the prime rate or the LIBOR rate. Assume the prime rate is 9 percent and LIBOR 0.5 percent less. Also assume there will be a $75 transaction fee with LIBOR (this amount must be added to the interest cost with LIBOR). a. What is the effective interest rate on the LIBOR loan
Answer: 9.37%
Explanation:
The effective interest rate on the LIBOR loan is calculated as follows based on the information given in the question:
Principal = $8700
Prime rate = 9%
LIBOR net interest rate = 9% - 0.5% = 8.5%
Interest Cost will be:
= 8700 × 8.50 × 1/100
= 739.50
We the add the transaction Fee of $75 and thus will be:
= $739.50 + $75.00
= $814.50.
Then, the effective interest rate will be:
= $814.50 × 100/$8700
= $814.50 × $0.0115
= 9.37%
Abbey Park was organized on April 1, 2016, by Trudy Crawford. Trudy is a good manager but a poor accountant. From the trial balance prepared by a part-time bookkeeper, Trudy prepared the following income statement for the quarter that ended March 31, 2017.
Abbay Park
Income statement
For the quarter ended March 31,2017
Revenues 83000
Rent Revenue
Operating expenses
Advertising expense 4200
Salaries and wages expense 27600
Utilities expense 1500
Depreciation expense 800
Maintenance expense 2800
Total operating expense 36900
Net income 46100
Trudy knew that something was wrong with the statement because net income had never exceeded $20,000 in any one quarter. Knowing that you are an experienced accountant, she asks you to review the income statement and other data. You first look at the trial balance. In addition to the account balances reported in the income statement, the ledger contains these selected balances at March 31, 2017.
Supplies 4500
Prepaid insurance 7200
Notes payable 20000
You then make inquiries and discover the following.
1. Rent revenue includes advanced rentals for summer-month occupancy, $21,000.
2. There were $600 of supplies on hand at March 31.
3. Prepaid insurance resulted from the payment of a 1-year policy on January 1, 2017.
4. The mail on April 1, 2017, brought the following bills: advertising for week of March 24, $110; repairs made March 10, $1,040; and utilities $240.
5. Wage expense totals $290 per day. At March 31, 3 days’ wages have been incurred but not paid.
6. The note payable is a 3-month, 7% note dated January 1, 2017. Instructions With the class divided into groups, answer the following.
(a) Prepare a correct income statement for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
(b) Explain to Trudy the generally accepted accounting principles that she did not follow in preparing her income statement and their effect on her results.
Answer:
Abbey Park
a) Correct Income Statement for the quarter ended March 31, 2017:
Abbey Park

Maintenance expense 3,840
Supplies Expense 3,900
Insurance expense 1,800
Interest expense 350
Total operating expense 45,210
Net income $16,790
b) The generally accepted accounting principles that Trudy did not follow in the preparation of her income statement are the accrual concept and the matching principle. Failure to follow these principles means that the net income will be misstated. The accounts were based on the cash basis instead of the accrual basis of generally accepted accounting principles. This means that records for non-cash transactions were not recognized while some others were recognized based on their cash effects.
Explanation:
a) Income Statement for the quarter ended March 31, 2017:

4. Advertising Expense = $4,310 ($4,200 + 110)
Maintenance Expense = $3,840 ($2,800 + 1,040)
Utilities Expense = $1,740 ($1,500 + 240)
Expenses Payable = $1,390
5. Wages Expenses = $28,470 (27,600 + ($290 * 3))
Wages payable $870
6. Interest Expense = $350 ($20,000 * 7% * 3/12)

Compute the 2019 Federal income tax liability and the marginal and effective tax rates in each of the following independent cases. Click here to access the 2019 tax rate schedule. If required, round the tax liability the nearest dollar. When required, round the average rates to four decimal places before converting to a percentage (i.e. .67073 would be rounded to .6707 and entered as 67.07%). a. Chandler is single and reports taxable income of $125,200.
Answer:
Tax liability = $24,222.50Marginal rate = 24%Average rate = 19.35%Explanation:
Question requires that we find the Tax liability, Marginal rate and Average rate.
Tax liability:
Chandler is in the $84,200 to $160,725 bracket.
= 14,382.50 + 24% * (125,200 - 84,200)
= 14,382.50 + 9,840
= $24,222.50
Marginal rate = 24%
Chandler's bracket is the 24% bracket.
Average rate:
= Tax/ Taxable income
= 24,222.50 / 125,200
= 19.35%
Xie Company identified the following activities, costs, and activity drivers for this year. The company manufactures two types of go-karts: Deluxe and Basic. Activity Expected Costs Expected Activity Handling materials $ 625,000 100,000 parts Inspecting product 900,000 1,500 batches Processing purchase orders 105,000 700 orders Paying suppliers 175,000 500 invoices Insuring the factory 300,000 40,000 square feet Designing packaging 75,000 2 models Required: Compute the activity rate for each activity, assuming the company uses activity-based costing. (Round activity rate answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Handling materials = $6.25 per part
Inspecting product = $600 per batch
Processing purchase = $150 per order
Handling materials = $350 per invoice
Insuring the factory = $7.50 per square feet
Designing packaging = $37,500 per model
Explanation:
Activity rate = Estimated Cost ÷ Estimated Activity
therefore,
Handling materials = $ 625,000 ÷ 100,000 parts = $6.25
Inspecting product = $ 900,000 ÷ 1,500 batches = $600
Processing purchase = $ 105,000 ÷ 700 orders = $150
Handling materials = $ 175,000 ÷ 500 invoices = $350
Insuring the factory = $ 300,000 ÷ 40,000 square feet = $7.50
Designing packaging = $ 75,000 ÷ 2 models = $37,500
Tammy, a resident of Virginia, is considering purchasing a $100,000 North Carolina bond that yields 4.6% before tax. She is in the 35% Federal marginal tax bracket and the 5% state marginal tax bracket. She is aware that State of Virginia bonds of comparable risk are yielding 4.5%. However, the Virginia bonds are exempt from Virginia tax, but the North Carolina bond interest is taxable in Virginia. Tammy can deduct any state taxes paid on her Federal income tax return. In your analysis, assume that the bond amount is $100,000.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
Tammy, a resident of Virginia, is considering whether to purchase a $100, 000 North Carolina bond that yields 4.6% before tax. She is in the 35% Federal marginal tax bracket and the 5% state marginal tax bracket. Tammy is aware that State of Virginia bonds of comparable risk are yielding 4.5%. Virginia bonds are exempt from Virginia tax, but the North Carolina bond interest is taxable in Virginia. Tammy can deduct all state taxes paid on her Federal income tax return. In your analysis, assume that the bond amount is $100,000.If required, round your computations and answers to the nearest dollar. Determine the after tax income from each bond. Virginia Bond: $ 4, 600 North Carolina Bond: $ 4, 451 Which of the two options will provide the greater after-tax return to Tammy? Virginia bond
Solution :
Assuming that the bond amount is $100,000.
After the tax income from the Virginia bond is given by:
= 100,000 x 4.5%
= $ 4500
After the income tax from the North Carolina bond :
= (100,000 x 4.6%) x (1-5%) + (100,000 x 4.6% x 5% x 0.35)
= $ 4451
Therefore the Virginia bond will give an after tax higher return.
