EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is use of multiple cost drivers to allocate overhead

Explanation:

Use of direct labor hours or direct labor cost to assign overhead to products is typical of traditional costing systems as overhead is believed to have positive relationship with labor-related variables.

Besides,using a business-wide or plant-wide single predetermined overhead rate is not feature of traditional systems of costing.

Since labor-related variables such as direct labor hours or direct labor cost is assumed to be a driver of overhead cost,hence an appropriate overhead absorption basis,it is perfectly understood that there is correlation between direct labor and incurrence of overhead cost in the business.

Consider the following data on the factor endowments of two countries, A and B: Labor Force (millions of workers) 45 20Capital S

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a. Country A

b. Country B

c. Country A

Explanation:

Given

For Country A

Labor force = 45 million = 45000000

Capital Stock = 15 thousand= 15000

For Country B

Labor Force = 20 million = 20000000

Capital Stock = 10 thousand = 10000

a. Which country is relatively capital abundant

A country is capital abundant if its endowment of capital relative to other factors is large compared to other countries.

We calculate the capital/labor ratio for each country.

For A, Ratio = 45000000÷15000 = 3000

For B, Ratio = 20000000÷10000= 2000

The Ratio of country A is greater than B.

So, A is capital redundant.

b. Which country is relatively labor abundant

A country is labour abundant if its endowment of labour relative to other factors is large compared to other countries.

We calculate the labor/capital ratio for each country

For A, Ratio = 15000÷45000000 = 0.000333

For B, Ratio = 10000÷20000000 = 0.0005

The Ratio of country B js greater than A

So, B is capital redundant.

c. Suppose that good S is capital intensive relative to good T. Which country will have comparative advantage in the production of S?

Heckscher–Ohlin theorem in the two-factor case, it states: "A capital-abundant country will export the capital-intensive good, while the labor-abundant country will export the labor-intensive good"

So, if product S is capital intensive relative to T then country A will have more advantage in production of product T to aid their exportation.

lue Inc. has decided to raise additional capital by issuing $171,000 face value of bonds with a coupon rate of 11%. In discussio

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Value assigned to bonds =

Value of bonds without warrants/(value of bonds without warrants+value of warrants)*Issue price

Value assigned to warrants =

Value of warrants/(value of bonds without warrants+Value of warrants)

Value assigned to bonds = 115,200/(115,200+28,800) * 140,000 = 0.8*140,000 = 112,000

Value assigned to warrants = 28,800/144,000 * 140,000 = 28,000

Journal entries:

Dr Cash 140,000

Dr Discount on bonds payable (171,000-112,000) 59,000

Cr Bonds payable 171,000

Cr Paid in capital-Stock warrants 28,000

Personal selling requires the __________ flow of communication between a buyer and a seller, often in a face-to-face encounter,

emmainna [20.7K]

<span>Personal selling requires the two-way flow of communication between a buyer and a seller, often in a face-to-face encounter, designed to influence a person's or a group's purchase decision. When meeting with people in person, it allows for conversation to flow back and forth smoothy and communication is much better. Having face-to-face meetings allows the buyer and seller to connect on a different level then if it were email, phone or another type of communication.</span>
