Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Total profit = $22.2

b. Total profit = -$20.3  / Loss of $20.3.

Explanation:

a) If ending price is $80  

Profit of long call = No. of contracts * [max(St - X,0) - premium paid]

Long call profit = 5 * [max(80 - 70,0) - 5.5]

Long call profit = 5 * [10 - 5.5]

Long call profit = $22.5

Profit of short call = No. of contracts * [-max(St - X, 0) + Premium received]

Profit of short call = 3 * [-max(80 - 77.5, 0) + 2.4]

Profit of short call = 3 * [-2.5 + 2.4]

Profit of short call = -$0.3

Total profit = Long call profit - Profit of short call

Total profit = 22.5 - 0.3

Total profit = $22.2

b) If ending price is $65

Profit of long call = No. of contracts * [max(St - X,0) - premium paid]  

Profit of long call = 5 * [max(65 - 70, 0) - 5.5]

Profit of long call = 5 * [0 - 5.5]

Profit of long call = -$27.5

Profit of short call = No. of contracts * [-max(St - X, 0) + Premium received]

Profit of short call = 3 * [-max(65 - 77.5, 0) + 2.4]

Profit of short call = 3 * [0 + 2.4]

Profit of short call = $7.2

Total profit = Long call profit - Profit of short call

Total profit = -27.5 + 7.2

Total profit = -$20.3  / Loss of $20.3.

Alameda Tile sells products to many people remodeling their homes and thinks that it could profitably offer courses on tile installation, which might also increase the demand for its products. The basic installation course has the following (tentative) price and cost characteristics. Tuition $ 800 per student Variable costs (tiles, supplies, and so on) 480 per student Fixed costs (advertising, salaries, and so on) 160,000 per year Required: a. What enrollment will enable Alameda Tile to break even? b. How many students will enable Alameda Tile to make an operating profit of $80,000 for the year? c. Assume that the projected enrollment for the year is 800 students for each of the following (considered independently): 1. What will be the operating profit (for 800 students)? 2. What would be the operating profit if the tuition per student (that is, sales price) decreased by 10 percent? Increased by 20 percent? 3. What would be the operating profit if variable costs per student decreased by 10 percent? Increased by 20 percent? 4. Suppose that fixed costs for the year are 10 percent lower than projected, whereas variable costs per student are 10 percent higher than projected. What would be the operating profit for the year?

Answers

Answer:

Alameda Tile

a. The enrollment to enable Alameda Tile to break even = 500 students.

b. To make an operating profit of $80,000, number of students

= 750 students

c. With projected enrollment for the year of 800 students:

1. Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($320 * 800) - $160,000

= $96,000

2. a) Operating Profit, if the tuition per student decreased by 10%.

New selling price = $720  which is $800 * (1 - 10%)

Variable cost             480

Contribution           $240

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($240 * 800) - $160,000

= $32,000

2. b) Operating Profit, if the tuition per student increased by 20%.

New selling price = $960  which is $800 * (1 + 20%)

Variable cost             480

Contribution           $480

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($480 * 800) - $160,000

= $224,000

3. a) Operating Profit, if variable costs per student decreased by 10%.

Selling price =         $800

Variable cost             432     $480 * (1 - 10%)

Contribution           $368

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($368 * 800) - $160,000

= $134,400

3. b) Operating Profit, if variable costs per student increased by 20%.

Selling price =         $800

Variable cost             576     $480 * (1 + 20%)

Contribution           $224

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($224 * 800) - $160,000

= $19,200

4. Operating profit, if fixed costs reduced by 10% and variable cost increased by 10%:

Selling price =         $800

Variable cost             528     $480 * (1 + 10%)

Contribution           $272

Operating profit = Total Contribution - Fixed Costs

= ($272 * 800) - $144,000 ($160,000 * (1 - 10%)

= $73,600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Tentative Price and Cost Characteristics:

Tuition $ 800 per student

Variable costs (tiles, supplies, and so on) 480 per student

Fixed costs (advertising, salaries, and so on) 160,000 per year

Per unit       Tentative

Selling price = $800

Variable cost    480

Contribution  $320

b) Computation of break-even point:

To break-even with fixed cost of $160,000, sales unit will be equal to:

Fixed cost/Contribution per unit = $160,000/$320 = 500 students

c) Fixed cost + Target Profit /Contribution per unit:

= ($160,000 + $80,000)/$320

= $240,000/320

= 750 students

Answers

Answer:

$537,000

Explanation:

The computation of net income for 2021 using full costing is shown below:-

Net income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Selling and administrative expenses

= (1,200 × 1,200) - (((1,200 × (350 + 220 + 20)) + 112,000) - ((1,200 × 20) + 35,000)

= $1,440,000 - $844,000 - $59,000

= $537,000

So, for computing the net income we simply applied the above formula.

Answer:

C. Both of the above

Explanation:

Insurance policy and repair order are both contracts.

The insurance policy is an agreement between the insurer (person or company) and the policyholder (the person who takes the cover). On the other hand, the repair order is also a contract because it is an agreement between the company who will provide the service repair and the customer who will receive the service.

As long as both parties consent to the agreement, are capable of doing what is asked in the agreement and that the agreement is legal, then it is considered a contract.

By observing an individual’s behavior in the situations outlined below, determine therelevant income elasticities of demand for each good (i.e., whether the good is normal orinferior). If you cannot determine the income elasticity, what additional informationmight you need?

a. Bill spends all his income on books and coffee. He finds $20 while rummagingthrough a used paperback bin at the bookstore. He immediately buys a newhardcover book of poetry.
b. Bill loses $10 he was going to use to buy a double espresso. He decides to sell hisnew book at a discount to his friend and use the money to buy coffee.
c. Being bohemian becomes the latest teen fad. As a result, coffee and book pricesrise by 25 percent. Bill lowers his consumption of both goods by the same percentage.
d. Bill drops out of art school and gets an M.B.A. instead. He stops reading books anddrinking coffee. Now he reads The Wall Street Journal and drinks bottled mineralwater

Answers

Answer:

Normal goods are those goods which see their demand rise when income rises and fall when income falls. Inferior goods on the other hand will see their demand fall when income rises and vice versa.

a. Book = Normal Good

Coffee = Neutral good

The demand for Books increased when Bill had more money which makes it a normal good.

The demand for coffee did not change when new income came thereby making it a neutral good.

b. Book = Normal Good

Coffee = Inferior good

The demand for Books decreased when Bill had less money which makes it a normal good.

The demand for coffee increased when Bill's income reduced thereby making it an inferior good.

c. Book = Normal Good = Coffee

Both coffee and books are normal goods because Bill is buying less of them when their prices increase because it means that Bill has less income to spend on them.

d. More information needed.

We are unable to tell which goods are normal or inferior as we are not given information on the relative changes in demand as a result of income changing.

A business has fixed costs of $45,000 per month and a variable costs of $32,000 per month . What is the average total cost of 7,700 units

Answers

Answer:

$10 per unit

Explanation:

The average total cost (AC) is the estimated per-unit cost in a given output.  The formula for calculating the average cost

=(Total fixed costs + total variable costs) / number of units produced = average total cost.

Adding Total fixed cost to total variable cost equal to Total cost (TC)

For this business, the average total costs

=$45,000  + $32,000 /7,700

=$77,000/7700

=$10

AC= $10 per unit

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $752,060

Explanation:

To calculate the fixed and variable cost under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (853,560 - 723,060) / (540,000 - 450,000)

Variable cost per unit=  $1.45

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 853,560 - (1.45*540,000)

Fixed costs= $70,560

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 723,060 - (1.45*450,000)

Fixed costs= $70,560

Now, the total cost for 470,000 units:

Total cost= 70,560 + 1.45*470,000

Total cost= $752,060

How much cash flow will the MP get from the sales transaction (do not put the $ sign in the answer)

Answers

Answer:

MP will get a cash flow of:

$128

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Equity shares

LP = 5

MP = 1

Ratio of equity = 5 : 1

Invested equity = $120

Share of invested equity:

LP = 5/6 * $120 = $100

MP = 1/6 * $120 = $20

Mortgage = $240

Property Sales = $400

Sales Proceeds Rules:

Property Sales = $400

Mortgage             240

Remaining           160

Equity share:

LP                       (100)

MP                       (20)

Balance                40

Sharing Ratio:

LP = 70% * $40 = $28

MP = 30% * $40 = $12

MP's cash flow:

Equity = $100

Balance Shared = $28

Total = $128

Linden, Inc. uses a 6,900 square foot factory space that it rents for $3,500 a month for all its manufacturing activities. Linden has decided to switch to an activity-based costing system, and has identified its activities as follows: Preparation and Setup, Machining, Finishing, and Quality Control. 3,100 square feet of the factory are used for machining, while 1,400 square feet (each) are used for Preparation and Setup and Quality Control. Finishing uses 1,000 square feet. When assigning indirect costs to each activity, how much factory rent should be assigned to the Preparation and Setup cost pool

Answers

Answer: $710.14

Explanation:

Out of the total space of 6,900 square foot, Preparation and Setup uses 1,400  out of this.

Rent is $3,500

The total rent to be apportioned to it will therefore be;

= 1,400/6,900 * 3,500

= $710.14

Gordon, an employee, is provided group term life insurance coverage equal to twice his annual salary of $125,000 per year. According to the IRS Uniform Premium Table (based on Gordon's age), the amount is $12 per year for $1,000 of protection. The cost of an individual policy would be $15 per year for $1,000 of protection. Since Gordon paid nothing towards the cost of the $250,000 protection, he must include in his 2019 gross income which of the following amounts?

QUESTIONS: What is the state’s role in enforcing federal drug laws? Even in states where marijuana is legal, many large employers have company-wide policies that prohibit the hiring of anyone who tests positive for recent marijuana use. How do you think Congress should respond to protect the rights of citizens to sell and use marijuana in states where it is legalized while protecting the interests of employers? Given this complex dynamic and the legal theory of preemption, do you think marijuana is really legal in the states in which it is legalized? Why or why not

Answers

Answer:

States have a high duty to adhere to the federal laws and state rule as well, wherever it is applicable. But in case the state has unique requirement, it may enact and enforce its own law which suits the local population rather than use of federal law. When it comes to federal drug laws, the states have a responsibility to work along with the federal authorities and government to make sure that the laws are in place. This includes not bringing about conflicting laws.

Congress should allow the employers to set their own rules. For example, if an employer does not allow employees to drink during working hours, there is no problem with it. Similarly if an employer chooses not to hire anyone with visible tattoo on their body, then that is completely employers’ discretion. Similarly if the employers have company wide policy to avoid marijuana, then that is employers’ business. There are many NGOs where the employers do not allow smoking or recruit smokers. There is nothing wrong with it. Now, unless an employee has medical justification for consuming marijuana, the employer should be within their right to decide on action on the employee. This is why Congress should not interfere in the employer-employee relationship.  

Given that in absolute conflict, the federal laws trump the state laws, marijuana is not legal in any of the states even if the state law permits it. The only reason the US Government is not taking action against recreational marijuana in the mentioned states is because it is too cumbersome and the outcome is not that significant. There is not a great deal of state benefit by arresting the farmers growing marijuana or the people distributing it. Thus it is still illegal but the government is not acting upon it.

A problem of interest to health officials (and others) is to determine the effects of smoking during pregnancy on infant health. One measure of infant health is birth weight; a birth weight that is too low can put an infant at risk for contracting various illnesses. Since factors other than cigarette smoking that affect birth weight are likely to be correlated with smoking, we should take those factors into account. For example, higher income generally results in access to better prenatal care, as well as better nutrition for the mother. An equation that recognizes this is bwght 5 b0 1 b1cigs 1 b2 faminc 1 u. (i) What is the most likely sign for b2

Answers

Answer:

β2 should have a positive sign

Explanation:

The regression equation is:

βwght = β0+β1cigs+β2faminc+μ

The equation tells us that the birth weight of a child is dependent on factors like cigarette consumption and family income.

β1 should have a negative sign because smoking during pregnancy has an adverse effect on birth weight. So there would be a negative correlation between birth weight and cigarette consumption.

β2 should have a positive sign. This is because while pregnant, a family with more income has the ability to provide better prenatal care and also better nutrition to the expectant mother. Therefore we have a positive correlation.

Answers

Answer:

Transfers-In

= Direct materials + Direct labor costs + Manufacturing overhead

= (90% * 100) + 46 + 76

= $212 million

Transfer-Out

= Cost transferred in * work completed

= 212 * 75%

= $159 million

Ending Balance

= Cost transferred in - Cost transferred out

= 212 - 159

= $53 million

A lawsuit between Uber and Waymo, Googles self-driving car project, settled in February 2018 illustrates the fierce battle to develop driverless car technology. Many cars already employ semi-autonomous technology, such as parking assistance and lane monitoring. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) suggests that automated vehicles could promote safety on the road. According to NHTSAs Federal Automated Vehicles Policy, 94 percent of car accidents are linked to human choice or error. Automated vehicles, the NHTSA writes, could reduce the frequency of crashes by eliminating some human error on the roads. The policy indicates positive features of automated vehicles beyond safety, including potential environmental benefits and increased mobility for those otherwise unable to drive. The cutting-edge technology, however, presents ethical questions and other concerns. Some research included in this roundup indicates that the environmental effects of widespread adoption of autonomous vehicles might not be positive. Safety benefits are not so clear-cut either.The author organizes this passage byA) comparing and contrasting different findings on autonomous vehicles B) explaining the best way to research the safety of autonomous vehicles C) presenting in chronological order the progress of autonomous vehicles D) describing the outcome of extensive research on autonomous vehicles What does the wave in Patricia Hubbell's poem "The Black Snake" symbolize?A: the movement of the oceanB: how the tree swaysC: the snake's movementD: how a tire rolls PLEASE PLEASE HURRY ITS REALLY URGENT If you put cold water in a cup and then put the same temperature water in it would it get colder or would it stay the same temperature?

Like Ashoka and Gandhi, Akbar constructed a religious ideology that served to hold together a diffuse polity as it fed his own soul. It began with pragmatic policies of tolerance. Akbar had inherited the throne, at the age of 13, in 1556. In 1579 he abolished the jiziya, a tax imposed on all but the poorest non-Muslims. This was the most notable in a series of measures to recruit the Hindu majority and others to the cause of unifying and expanding his empire. He could be ruthless: his troops massacred 20,00025,000 non-combatants after a four-month siege of Chitor, a nearly impregnable Hindu fortress in Rajasthan. But he preferred incentives to coercion. He defeated the war-like Rajputs, but gave them rank and married their princesses, who were permitted to conduct Hindu rites in the harem. The Mughal-Rajput alliance was a bulwark of his empire.
