The marginal product of the fourth worker is 150 bushels of wheat.

<h3>What is the marginal product?</h3>

Marginal product is the change in the total product of labour when labour is increased by one unit.

Marginal product = change in output / change in labour

change in output = 1300 - 1000 = 300

change in labour = 4 - 2 = 2

300 / 2 = 150

Kulka Corporation manufactures two products: Product F82D and Product T05P. The company uses a plantwide overhead rate based on
ipn [44]

Answer:

b. $303,000

Explanation:

The activity rate

1. Machining = $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

                    $=\frac{180000}{9000}$

                   = $ 20 per machine hour

2. Machine set up =   $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

                    $=\frac{125000}{250}$

                   = $ 500 per set up

3. Product design =  $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

                    $=\frac{44000}{2}$

                   = $ 22000 per product

4. Order size =  $\frac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total activity}}$

                    $=\frac{260000}{10000}$

                   = $ 26 per direct labor hour

Now the ABC cost (Product T05P)

1. Machining  = $\text{machine hours} \times \text{activity rate}$

                     = 4000 x 20

                     = $ 80,000

2. Machine set ups =  $\text{no. of set ups} \times \text{activity rate}$

                     = 90 x 500

                     = $ 45,000

3. Product design =  $\text{no. of products} \times \text{activity rate}$

                     = 1 x 22000

                     = $ 22,000

4. Order size =  $\text{direct labor hours} \times \text{activity rate}$

                     = 6000 x 26

                     = $ 156,000

Therefore, the total manufacturing overhead cost assigned to product T05P = 80000 + 45000 + 22000 + 156000

= $ 303,000

Carroll Corporation has two products, Q and P. During June, the company's net operating income was $25,000, and the common fixed
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Total Segment Margin = Net Operating Income + common fixed expenses

                                       = $ 25,000 + $ 37,000

                                       = $ 62,000

Total Segment Margin = Segment Margin of Q + Segment Margin of P

$ 62,000 = $ 21,000 + Segment Margin of P

or Segment Margin of P = $ 62,000 - $ 21,000

                                         = $ 41,000

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

The effficent market hypothesis is an investment theory which advocates that the stock prices reflect all the available information. As a result, stocks are always traded at their fair value.

The strong form of efficient market says that stock prices reflect all information whether public or private.

This implies that investors cannot have more than normal profits. In the above example, the investors are able to make profit through insider information. This means that the market is less than strong form efficient.

Your father paid $10,000 (cf at t = 0) for an investment that promises to pay $750 at the end of each of the next 5 years, then
natta225 [31]

From the problem statement it is clear that here we need to find out simple interest rate. 
One do not get interest on any investment made at the end of tenure.  
Putting this mathematically:
 Let amount at the end of 5th year as A 
Simple Interest for 5 years, SI = 750 *5
 SI = 3750
 Hence A = 10000 +3750
 A= 13750
 Let rate of return = R
 Tenure t = 5
 But,
  A = P(1 + R*t/100)
 13750 = 10000( 1+ R*5/100)
 13750 = 10000 + 50000R/100
 3750 = 500R
 R = 3750/500
 R = 7.5 %
 
 Hence rate of return is 7.5% per annum (answer)
