Answer:
c. $125.00
Explanation:
Let us assume the x for invested in portfolio
Invested proportion × expected return of the optimal portfolio + (1 - invested proportion) × risk free rate = expected return
x × 7% + (1 - x) × 3% = 8%
7% x + 3% - 3% x = 8%
4% x = 5%
X = 1.25
Now the invested amount would be
= 1.25 × $500
= $625
So, the borrowed amount would be
= $625 - $500
= $125
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $35.65 per machine hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated the machine-hours= 45,900
The estimated variable manufacturing overhead was $7.53 per machine-hour.
The estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was $1,290,708.
<u>To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (1,290,708/45,900) + 7.53
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $35.65 per machine hour
Answer:
A. wastefulness - production inside PPC ; B. Economy growth - PPC shift outwards/rightwards ; C. Economy at Productive Efficiency - production on PPC ; D. Unattainable Production- Outside PPC
Explanation:
PPC is graphical representation of production combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.
PPC is based on assumption : That resources are best efficiently utilised. So, all product combinations ON PPC reflect 'Economy is at Productive Efficiency'
All production points INSIDE PPC reflect inefficient utilisation of resources i.e 'Wastage'
Points OUTSIDE PPC are 'Unattainable Product Combinations'- as they are beyond economy's best optimum production, given resources & technology.
'Economic growth' is increase in resources &/or technology which increases economy's production potential and PPC curve SHIFTS rightwards or outwards.
