Two college students share an apartment and split the cost of​ heating, electricity, and rent. They decide to include one more roommate and divide​ heat, electricity, and rent costs three ways instead of two ways.
If adding the third roommate reduces the amount of money they each pay for utilities and rent each​ month, this can be described​ as:_____________

Answers

Answer:

increasing returns to scale.

Explanation:

The returns to scale mean the rate at which there is change in the output when the inputs are changed by a similar factor

While on the other hand, an increasing return to scale refers that if there is an increase in input so by a larger proportion, the output is also increased as compared with the input  

Therefore according to the given situation, since by adding the third roommate,  it declines the amount of money by each one in respect to rent, utilities so it describes the increasing return to scale

Suppose you run a lawn mowing business. You charge $15 per lawn, you can mow five lawns in an eight hour day, and you work five days a week. You currently have more people asking you to mow their lawns than you can satisfy so you are considering hiring someone to help. Your other option is to rent a riding lawn mower that will enable you to mow seven lawns each day. Your friend Jim, a good worker, will work for $8 per hour and will be able to mow five lawns in an eight hour day also. If you rent a riding mower, it will cost you $100 per week plus $25 for gas and oil.

Required:
What is your best option? Explain why you believe this is your best choice.

Answers

Answer:

Option 2

Explanation:

Option 1  If we hire someone to help

Revenue = $15/lawn x 5 lawns per day

Revenue = $75 x 7 days = $525

Total cost = Rate per hour x No. of lawns per day x No, of hours worked

Total cost = $8 x 5 x $8

Total cost = $320 x 7days = 2,240

Profit/Loss = $525- $2,240

Profit/loss = $1,715 loss

Option 2 If we rent a riding mower

Revenue = 7 lawns per day x $15/lawn x 7 days

Revenue = $735

Cost = $100 + $25 for gas and oi

Cost = $125

Profit/loss = $610

The best option would be Option 2 because Firstly it is very much low in cost and provides us a great revenue secondly, it also increases our work efficiency.

Exhibit 22-8 Above shows how output changes as the only one variable input, labor, changes. At what unit of labor does diminishing marginal returns set in?

Answers

Answer: 3 units of labor

Explanation:

Diminishing Marginal Returns refers to a scenario where less marginal output is recorded as more inputs are invested.

From the exhibit, that point would be at 3 units of labor.

At 0 units of labor, 0 units of output was recorded.

At 1 unit of labor, 50 units of output was produced. This means 50 more units were produced.

At 2 units of labor, 110 units of output were produced. This means 60 more units were produced.

At 3 units of labor, 155 units of output were produced meaning that only 45 more units were produced as a result of the extra unit of labor.

This 45 units is less than the 60 units that adding the second unit of labor added to production meaning less marginal output was recorded as more inputs were invested starting here.

Hello your question has some missing figures here is the complete question with the missing figures

Creating own dividend policy. Carmen owns shares of Wiseguy Entertainment. Wiseguy has just declared a $0.30 per share dividend on a stock selling at ​$24.3. What must Carmen do if she wants no cash dividends at this​ time, $82000 worth of​ dividends, or ​$107000 worth of​ dividends? Show her wealth in paper and cash under each scenario. Assume a world of no taxes. ​First, if Carmen does not want an annual​ "dividend income" from his stock​ holdings, what must she do to get this level of​ income? ​(Select the best​ response.)

Answer: Wealth in cash = $107000 , wealth in paper = $8160000

since her annual dividend received = ($102000)  Carmen needs to       purchase 4250 more shares of stock to get to this level of income

Explanation:

Given data

shares held = 340000

dividend = $0.3

stock price = $24.3

Stock price - dividend = $24 ( dividend price )

A) what Carmen must do if she doesn't want cash dividends

Based on shares held the annual dividend of Carmen = 340000 * 0.3 = $102000

If Carmen doesn't want the cash dividend she can use it to purchase more shares for Wiseguy entertainment which will be = dividend received / dividend price = 102000 / 24 = 4250 shares

when the Annual dividend required is  $82000

she can buy shares worth = $20000 ( 102000 - 82000 )

= 20000 / 24 = 833.33

when the Annual dividend required is $107000

Carmen can sell shares worth = $5000 ( 107000 - 102000 )

= 5000 / 24 = 208.33

therefore wealth in cash would be

= $107000

wealth in paper would be

= dividend price * number of shares held

= $24 * 340000 = $8160000

Motorsports, Inc. had a predetermined overhead rate of $2 per direct labor hour. The direct labor hours were estimated to be 25,000. The actual manufacturing overhead incurred was $47,000 and 24,000 actual direct labor hours were worked. How much was overhead over/under applied last year

Answers

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

For the computation of overhead over/under applied last year first we need to find out the applied overhead which is shown below:-

Applied overhead = Actual direct labor × Per direct labor

= 24,000 × $2

= $48,000

Over applied overhead = Applied overhead - Actual overhead

= $48,000 - $47,000

= $1,000

Therefore for computing the overhead over/under applied last year we simply applied the above formula.

You invest $100 in a risky asset with an expected rate of return of 0.11 and a standard deviation of 0.20 and a T-bill with a rate of return of 0.03. What percentages of your money must be invested in the risky asset and the risk-free asset, respectively, to form a portfolio with an expected return of 0.08?

Answers

Answer:

62.5% and 37.5%.

Explanation:

The computation of percentage is shown below:-

Let us assume the X be the weight in Risky Asset

And, 1 - X is the weight in Risk Free asset.

SO,

Particulars         Rate          Weight         Weighted rate

Stock               11.00%            X                  0.11X

Risk free assets 3%            1 - X              0.03 - 0.03X

So, the equation will be

0.03 + 0.08 X = 0.08

0.08 X = 0.08 - 0.03

0.08 X = 0.05

X = 0.05 ÷ 0.08

= 0.625

The standard deviation of return on investment A is 25%, while the standard deviation of return on investment B is 20%. If the correlation coefficient between the returns on A and B is −0.260, the covariance of returns on A and B is _________. Multiple Choice –0.2080 –0.0130 0.0130 0.2080

Answers

Answer: –0.0130

Explanation:

Correlation given the variance and the standard deviation of the two returns can be calculated by;

Correlation coefficient = Covariance of returns on investment A and B / (Standard deviation of return on investment A * Standard deviation of return on investment B).

Rearranging the formula, Covariance becomes;

Covariance of returns on investment A and B = Correlation coefficient * (Standard deviation of return on investment A * Standard deviation of return on investment B)

Covariance of returns on investment A and B = -0.260 * 0.25 * 0.20

Covariance of returns on investment A and B  = –0.0130

ou have a $4 million portfolio consisting of a $100,000 investment in each of 20 different stocks. The portfolio has a beta of 1.1. You are considering selling $100,000 worth of one stock with a beta of 0.9 and using the proceeds to purchase another stock with a beta of 1.4. What will the portfolio’s new beta be after these transactions? Show your work

Answers

Answer: 1.108

Explanation:

You have $4 million invested.

You would like to divest $100,000 from a stock with beta 0.9 to the tune of $100,000.

The entire portfolio has a beta of 1.1.

This beta is an average of all the betas in the portfolio.

Proportion of Portfolio to be divested = [tex]\frac{100,000}{4,000,000}[/tex]

= 0.025

Beta of stock to be divested expressed as;

= 0.025 * 1.1

= 0.0275

This will be reinvested in a stock with beta 1.4

Beta of stock to be bought expressed as;

= 0.025 * 1.4

= 0.035

New beta

= 1.1 - 0.0275 + 0.035

= 1.108

Answer: $183.18

Explanation:

Pinkin aims to make a 20% markup on the total cost of selling the product.

Costs

Fixed Cost Per Unit

= (Total fixed overhead + Total fixed administrative) / no. of units

= (110,000 + 90,000)/43,000

= $4.65

Variable Costs Per Unit

= Variable product cost per unit + Variable administrative cost per unit

= 82 + 66

= $148

Total Cost per unit = 4.65 + 148

= $152.65

Price Pinkin should charge

= Total Cost ( 1 + Markup)

= 152.65 ( 1 + 20%)

= $183.18‬

A company revealed the following figures: Sales revenue $2,240,000 Contribution margin $560,000 Net operating income $410,000 How much is the company's margin of safety in dollars

Answers

Answer:

The company's margin of safety in dollars is $1,640,000 .

Explanation:

Margin of Safety is the amount in units or dollars by which sales may fall before a Company starts making a loss.

The first step is to calculate break even point  in dollar sales.

Break even point  in  dollar sales = Fixed Costs / Contribution Margin Ratio

Where,

Fixed Costs = Contribution margin - Operating Income

                    = $560,000 - $410,000

                    = $150,000

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales revenue

                                           = $560,000 ÷ $2,240,000

                                           = 0.25

Thus,

Break even point  in  dollar sales = $150,000 / 0.25

                                                       = $600,000

Margin of Safety = Expect Sales - Break Even Sales

                            = $2,240,000 - $600,000

                            = $1,640,000

CostGet 549 585 60,963
1. Calculate the receivables turnover ratio and the average collection period for WalCo, TarMart and CostGet.
2. Which company appears most efficient in collecting cash from sales?

Answers

Answer:

1. Average Accounts Receivables = (Opening AR+Closing AR)/2

WalCo = 1,735 + 2,682 / 2 = 2208.5 = 2209

TarMart= 5,766 + 6,294 / 2 = 6030

CostGet=  549 + 585 / 2 = 567

Receivable Turnover Ratio = Net Sales / Average Accounts Receivables

WalCo= 314,427 / 2209 = 142.339 = 142.34

TarMart=  59,878 / 6030 = 9.903 = 9.90

CostGet= 60,963 / 567= 107.518 = 107.52

Average Collection Period = 365 / Receivable Turnover Ratio

WalCo= 365 / 142.34 = 2.56

CostGet= 365 / 9.90= 36.87

TarMart= 365 / 107.52= 3.39

2. Walco Company is the best Since it collects its AR in 2.56 days

1. Peter applied for a job at an accounting firm and a consulting firm. He knows that 50% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the accounting firm; only 40% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the consulting firm Peter also knows that 60% of similarly qualified applicants receive an offer from one firm or the other. Hints: A

Answers

Answer:

75%

Explanation:

Assume that:

X is the probability that the Peter, qualified accountant would receive offer from the accounting firm AND

Y is the probability that the Peter, qualified accountant would receive offer from the consulting firm.

Here,

P(X) is 50%, P(Y) is 40% and P(X∪Y) is 60%

Now we want to find P(X/Y) = ?

We also know that:

P(X/Y) = P(X∩Y) STEP1 /  P(Y)

By putting values, we have:

P(X/Y) = 0.3 / 0.4 = 0.75 = 75%

Step 1: Find P(X∩Y)

P(X∪Y) = P(X) + P(Y)  -   P(X∩Y)

This implies that:

P(X∩Y) = P(X)  +  P(Y)  -   P(X∪Y)

By putting values we have:

P(X∩Y) = 0.5 + 0.4   -  0.6   =  0.3

Suppose you believe that Florio Company's stock price is going to decline from its current level of $82.50 sometime during the next 5 months. For $5.10 you could buy a 5-month put option giving you the right to sell 1 share at a price of $85 per share. If you bought this option for $5.10 and Florio's stock price actually dropped to $60, what would your pre-tax net profit be

Answers

Answer:

$19.9

Explanation:

According to the given situation the computation of pre-tax net profit is shown below:-

Net pre-tax profit = Option exercised per share  + Actual stock price at the end + Profit - Option premium

= $85 + $60 + $25 - $5.10

= $19.9

Therefore for computing the pre-tax net profit we simply applied the above formulas.

Bob is evaluating a bond issue to determine the right price for the bond. In his evaluation, he gathers the following information:

What is the above bond issue worth in today's dollars?
a. $1,000
b. $1,181.63
c. $1,200.50
d. None of the above

Answers

Answer:

The price of the bond is $1000. Thus, option a is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The price of a bond is calculated using the present value of the interest payments made by the bond, which is in the form of an annuity, plus the present value of the face value of the bond. The present value is calculated by discounting the annuity of interest and the face value by the YTM or yield to maturity. In case YTM is not provided, we assume that it is same as or equal to the coupon rate paid by the bond.

The formula for the price of the bond is attached.

Bond Price = 25 * [(1 - (1+0.025)^-8) / 0.025]  +  1000 / (1+0.025)^8

Bond Price = $1000

Answers

Answer:

1. Computation of the Return on Investment:

= Profit/Average Invested Assets x 100

Beverage Division = $349/$2,627.5 x100 = 13.28%

Cheese Division = $634/$4,427.5 x 100 = 14.32%

2. Computation of the profit margin:

= Operating Income/Sales x 100

Beverage Division = $349/$2,681 x 100 = 13%

Cheese Division = $634/$3,925 x 100 = 16.2%

3. Computation of Investment Turnover:

= Sales/Shareholders' Equity + Debt

= Sales/Assets

Beverage Division = $2,681/$2,627.5 = 1 : 1

Cheese Division = $3,925/$4,427.5 = 0.89 : 1

Shareholders' Equity + Debt = Assets

Explanation:

a) Data:

                                           Beverage Division   Cheese Division  Total

Invested assets, beginning       $ 2,662                  $ 4,455         $ 7,117

Invested assets, ending               2,593                      4,400          6,993

Sales                                              2,681                      3,925          6,606

Operating income                           349                         634            983

Average invested assets             2,627.5                  4,427.5       6,799.5

b) In the balance sheet, the total assets are always equal to the Shareholders' Equity and Total Liabilities.  Since they are equal, the value of the assets can be used to substitute for Shareholders' Equity plus total liabilities.  We have chosen to use the average invested assets for the Beverage and Cheese divisions as this smoothens the changes during the year.

c) The Return on Investment for this company is a profitability ratio which shows the efficiency of the investments made in the Beverage and Cheese divisions.

d) The profit margin per division is the percentage of the operating profit over the sales revenue for the Beverage and Cheese divisions.  It shows how much of the divisional sales revenue was turned into divisional profit.  It is also an efficiency measure that demonstrates management's ability to manage the costs of goods and services and the general costs of running the business, in order to generate enough divisional profits for the company.

e) The Investment Turnover compares the divisional sales revenues with the total investments made in generating the revenue.  It shows the ability of the company's management to generate revenue from business funding for both the Beverage and Cheese divisions.
