Answer:
The correct answer is "$120,250".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Opening inventory
= $38,500
Closing inventory
= $15,250
Purchases
= $97,000
Now,
The cost of materials used during the month of February will be:
= Opening Inventory + Purchases - Closing Inventory

Owners of a local restaurant are concerned about their ability to provide quality service as they continue to grow and attract more customers. They have collected data from Friday and Saturday nights, their busiest times of the week. During these time periods about 126 customers arrive per hour for service. Given number of tables and chairs, and the typical time it takes to serve a customer, the owners estimate they can serve on average about 121 customers per hour.
During these nights, are they in the zone of service, the critical zone , or the zone of non service?
A. zone of service
B. zone of non service
C. critical zone
Answer:
Option B Zone of non service
Explanation:
We can decide whether it will be one of each zone mentioned above by identifying whether the service rate is greater than the arrival rate or vice versa.
Zone of service = Service rate is greater than the mean arrival rate
Critical zone = Service rate equals to mean arrival rate
Zone of non service = Mean arrival rate is greater than the service rate
Calculation
Capacity utilization rate = Arrival rate / Number of customers they can serve
Capacity utilization rate = 126 / 121
Capacity utilization rate = 104%
Since the mean arrival rate is greater than the service rate Its would be a Zone of non service

At the end of the fiscal year, the following adjusting entries were omitted:
a. No adjusting entry was made to transfer the $3,000 of prepaid insurance from the asset account to the expense account.
b. No adjusting entry was made to record accrued fees of $500 for services provided to customers.
Assuming that financial statements are prepared before the errors are discovered, indicate the effect of each error, considered individually, by inserting the dollar amount in the appropriate spaces.
Answer:
Error AAssets will be Overstated by $3,000
Asset was never subtracted from assets so assets are overstated
Liabilities - No effect
Net Income - Overstated by $3,000
As insurance expense was not deducted from Net Income
Retained Earnings - Overstated by $3,000
As insurance expense was not deducted from Net Income
Error BAssets - Understated by $500
Accrued revenue is an asset and so not recording it understates assets
Liabilities - No effect
Net Income - Understated by $500
This is revenue so not recording it would reduce net income.
Retained Earnings - Understated by $500
The U.S. Department of Transportation provides estimated number of miles that residents of large metropolitan areas travel per day in a car. In a random sample of 50 City A residents the mean was 22 miles with a standard deviation of 4 miles, and in a random sample of 50 City B residents the mean was 28 miles with a standard deviation of 8 miles. You want to know if the mean difference in number of miles travelled per day between City A and City B is different from zero in the population.
a. One sample t test
b. Paired samples t test
c. Independent samples t test
d. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA)
Answer:
c. Independent samples t test
Explanation:
An independent samples t test is used in the above case. Independent samples t test are employed when comparison is between two independently groups. Independent samples t test compares the mean of two independent groups as in above to determine if there is a statistically significant difference between them for the purpose of making a decision. For example in the above scenario if there is a difference in the means, we can conclude that City A and city B residents do not travel same distance in miles
With the snow season fast approaching us, Jack Frost, age 15, is considering his income-generating alternatives. Jack runs a snow removal business. He employs his friends at $10.00 per hour to clear sidewalks and driveways for neighbors, family friends, and fellow townsfolk. Last year, he had ten regular customers whose walks were shoveled 14 times each over the course of the winter. All told, Jack paid his friends $2,100 for their work for him this winter. Jack is considering the purchase of a used snowblower, which he believes will reduce the amount of time it takes his crew to complete a job to only 45 minutes. The snowblower will cost $1,176 (and will probably be worthless after one year of use), and will consume about $0.50 worth of gasoline and oil per use (per snow removal job). Given that Jack had no fixed costs, what was Jack's total cost function for last year?a. TC = 15Q b. TC = 100 c. TC = 11760 d. TC=0.5Q
Answer:
a. TC = 15Q
Explanation:
The cost function must include all the costs incurred by a business. Generally it includes a variable part and a fixed part. In this case, since Jack had no fixed costs, his costs are only variable: labor = $10 per hour
in total, Jack's business shoveled 10 x 14 = 140 walks, since he paid his friends $2,100 in total, the variable cost of shoveling one walk = $2,100 / 140 = $15
that means that last years cost function = $15 x number of walks shoveled, or
TC = 15Q (where Q is the number of walks shoveled)
Suppose that Portugal and Austria both produce oil and shoes. Portugal's opportunity cost of producing a pair of shoes is 4 barrels of oil while Austria's opportunity cost of producing a pair of shoes is 10 barrels of oil. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing shoes in the two countries, you can tell that has a comparative advantage in the production of shoes and has a comparative advantage in the production of oil. Suppose that Portugal and Austria consider trading shoes and oil with each other. Portugal can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than of oil for each pair of shoes it exports to Austria. Similarly, Austria can gain from trade as long as it receives more than of shoes for each barrel of oil it exports to Portugal.
Based on your answer to the last question, which of the following prices of trade (that is, price of shoes in terms of oil) would allow both Sweden and Portugal to gain from trade?
a. 1 barrel of oil per pair of shoes
b. 9 barrels of oil per pair of shoes
c. 3 barrels of oil per pair of shoes
d. 8 barrels of oil per pair of shoes
Answer:
1. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing shoes in the two countries, you can tell that Portugal has a comparative advantage in the production of shoes and Austria has a comparative advantage in the production of oil.
Portugal has a lower opportunity cost of 4 barrels of oil when producing a pair of shoes so it has a Comparative Advantage there.
Austria on the other hand produces more oil per shoe than Portugal so it has comparative advantage in Oil production.
2. Portugal can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than 4 barrels of oil for each pair of shoes it exports to Austria. Similarly, Austria can gain from trade as long as it receives more than 0.1 pairs of shoes for each barrel of oil it exports to Portugal.
If Portugal was not engaging in trade, it would be able to make 4 barrels of oil if it was not making a shoe. A gain for them therefore would be more than 4 barrels of oil for one shoe because it would be higher than the opportunity cost of 4 barrels per shoe.
The same logic applies to Austria, they need to get more shoes than they would have made if they gave up oil. They would have made 1/10 = 0.1 pairs of shoes if they gave up 1 barrel of oil so if they receive more than 0.1 pairs of shoes for the same 1 barrels then they would have made a gain.
3. b. 9 barrels of oil per pair of shoes
d. 8 barrels of oil per pair of shoes
Both of these would be favorable as they would benefit both parties.
Portugal would get more barrels than they can produce per shoe and Austria would get more shoes than they can produce per barrel of oil.
A work group of 10 workers in a certain month produced 7200 units of output working 8 hr/day for 22 days in the month. Determine the labor productivity ratio using:
Units of output per worker-hour and per worker-month.
For each of these, determine the productivity index for the next month using the prior month as a base. Then, suppose that in the next month, the same work group produced 6800 units but, there were only 20 workdays in the month.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Given that unit of output is 7200,
Working hours/day = 8hrs
Working days/month = 22 days
Hence,
a. units of output per worker-hour
=> LPR = 7200 ÷ (10 * 8 * 22)
=> 7200 ÷ 1760 = 4.091 units/wo-hr
b. units of output per worker-month
=> LPR = 7200 ÷ (10 * 1) = 720 units/wo-month
c. determine the productivity index for the next month using the prior month as a base.
Supposing that unit of output is 6800,
Working hours/day = 8hrs
Working days/month = 20 days
LPR = 6800 ÷ ( 10*8*20) =
=> 6800 ÷ 1600 = 4.25 units/wo-hr
Hence, LPI for (a) = 4.25 ÷ 4.091 = 1.039 = 103.9%
LPR = 6800 / (10*1) = 680 units/wo-month
Hence, LPI for (b) = 680 / 720 = 0.944 = 94.4%
Harry loves both hot dogs and hamburgers. He receives about the same satisfaction from eating one hamburger as he does from eating one hot dog, and the two goods fill the same need in Harry's life. The price of hot dogs has been extremely volatile for the past several years, and this year is no exception. Hot dog prices tremendously this month. Assuming hot dogs and hamburgers are substitutes for Harry, what will happen to Harry's demand for hamburgers?
Required:
Using the line drawing tool, depict the effect on Harry's demand for hamburgers due to the in the price of hot dogs. Properly label this line. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required object.
Answer: Harry's demand for hamburgers will increase.
Explanation:
Substitutes are goods that can be used to replace one another because they both serve thesame purpose. In this case, hot dogs and hamburgers are substitutes.
Since the price of hotdogs has risen, Harry will reduce its demand for hotdogs and shift its demand to buying more hamburger. This means Harry's demand for hamburgers will increase.
In a certain economy, when income is $500, consumer spending is $350. The value of the multiplier for this economy is 3.33. It follows that, when income is $1000, consumer spending is
Answer: $700
Explanation:
The multiplier can used to calculate the Marginal propensity to consume.
Multiplier = 1 / Marginal propensity to save
3.33 = 1 / MPS
MPS = 1/3.33
= 30%
Marginal propensity to save + Marginal propensity to consume = 1
30% + MPC = 1
MPC = 70%
This means that for every $1 increase in income, 70% is spent on consumption.
If income is $1,000, consumption is;
= 70% * 1,000
= $700

Answer:
Juris Doctor
Explanation:
Please mark as brainlist answers
Juris Doctor is NOT an example of a professional degree. Hence, option D is correct.
What is a professional degree?A professional degree, usually referred to as a first-professional degree, is a degree that helps you get ready for a specific career. Law degrees (J.D.s) and medical degrees are the two most typical instances of professional degrees (M.D.s). There are plenty others, though.
A professional degree is a higher education program created to get you ready to work in a particular industry, like law or medicine. Professional degrees are regarded as terminal degrees, or the greatest degree you may obtain in a field, similar to advanced academic degrees like doctorates and certain master's.
The completion of professional degrees typically requires more time than academic degrees. Additional eligibility requirements for professional degrees may include trainee programs, licensure exams, and bar exams. The two terms "professional bachelor's degree" and "bachelor's degree" are not synonymous.
Thus, option D is correct.

Victory Company uses weighted-average process costing to account for its production costs. Conversion cost is added evenly throughout the process. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. During November, the company transferred 700,000 units of product to finished goods. At the end of November, the work in process inventory consists of 180,000 units that are 30% complete with respect to conversion. Beginning inventory had $420,000 of direct materials and $139,000 of conversion cost. The direct material cost added in November is $2,220,000, and the conversion cost added is $3,254,000. Beginning work in process consisted of 60,000 units that were 100% complete with respect to direct materials and 80% complete with respect to conversion. Of the units completed, 60,000 were from beginning work in process and 640,000 units were started and completed during the period.
Required:
a. Determine the equivalent units of production with respect to (a) direct labor and (b) direct materials.
b. Compute both the direct labor cost and the direct materials cost per equivalent unit.
c. Compute both direct labor cost and direct materials cost assigned to (a) units completed and transferred out and (b) ending goods in process inventory.
Answer:
a) equivalent units:
EUP for materials = 880,000 units
EUP for conversion costs = 754,000 units
b) cost per equivalent unit:
materials cost per EUP = $3 per EUP
conversion costs per EUP = $4.50 per EUP
c) costs assigned to units transferred out and ending WIP:
units transferred out = $5,250,000
ending WIP = $783,000
Explanation:
units transferred out 700,000
ending WIP 180,000
100% completed for materials
30% completed for conversion costs
beginning WIP:
materials $420,000
conversion costs $139,000
materials added during September $2,220,000
conversion costs added during September $3,254,000
total materials costs = beginning WIP + added costs = $420,000 + $2,220,000 = $2,640,000
total conversion costs = beginning WIP + added costs = $139,000 + $3,254,000 = $3,393,000
a) equivalent units:
EUP for materials = 700,000 + 180,000 = 880,000
EUP for conversion costs = 700,000 + (180,000 x 30%) = 754,000
b) cost per equivalent unit:
materials cost per EUP = $2,640,000 / 880,000 = $3
conversion costs per EUP = $3,393,000 / 754,000 = $4.50
c) costs assigned to units transferred out and ending WIP:
units transferred out = 700,000 x $7.50 = $5,250,000
ending WIP = (180,000 x $3) + (54,000 x $4.50) = $783,000

The Morgan Corporation has two different bonds currently outstanding. Bond M has a face value of $20,000 and matures in exactly 20 years. Looking forward, this bond makes no interest payments for the next six years. Beginning in the middle of year seven, the bond makes payments of $800 every six months through the end of year 14. Finally, beginning in the middle of year 15, the bond makes semiannual payments of $1000 up to and including its maturity date.
Required:
What are the current prices of bond M and bond N?
Answer:
Market price of bond M = $16,527.07
Market price of bond N = $5,673.38
Explanation:
Some information was missing, so I looked it up:
Bond N also has a face value of $20,000 and a maturity of 20 years; it makes no coupon payments over the life of the bond. The required return on both these bonds is 6.5 percent compounded semiannually,
we must first calculate the effective interest rate:
the effective interest rate = 1.065 = (1 + r)²
√1.065 = √(1 + r)²
1.03199 = 1 + r
r = 3.2%
I used an excel spreadsheet to calculate the present value of bond M's coupon payments.
Bond M's price:
PV of face value = $20,000 / (1.032)⁴⁰ = $5,673.38
PV of coupon payments = $10,853.69
market price = $16,527.07
to determine the market value of bond N (zero coupon bond) we can use the following formula:
market value = future value / (1 + r)ⁿ
market value = $20,000 / (1.032)⁴⁰ = $5,673.38
