A free market exists

2 answers:

3 0

A free market exists when the government places few restrictions on how a good or a service can be produced or sold or on how a factor of production can be employed. A free market is an economic system where prices are decided on if there is unrestricted competition between privately owned businesses. Supply and demand are the main factors in a free market and there is little to no government control.

Jakarta Company is a service firm with current service revenue of $500,000 and a 40% contribution margin. Its fixed costs are $8

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the margin of safety is shown below:

As we know that

margin of safety = Actual sales - break even sales

For Jakarta, it is

= $500,000 - ($80,000 ÷ 0.40)

= $500,000 - $200,000

= $300,000

And, for maldives, it is

= $6,620,000 - ($2,151,500 ÷ 50%)

= $2,317,000

In a portfolio of three randomly selected stocks, which of the following could NOT be true; i.e., which statement is false?

Tpy6a [65]

Answer: b. The beta of the portfolio is higher than the highest of the three betas

Explanation:

The beta of a portfolio is calculated as a weighted average of the individual betas of the individual stocks. As such, the highest individual beta will be the upper limit of the portfolios entire beta.

For instance.

3 stocks A, B and C have betas of 1, 1.3 and 2 respectively.

A has a weight of 1%, B has a weight of 1% and C has a weight of 98%.

The portfolio beta will be;

= (0.01 * 1 ) + ( 0.01 * 1.3) + ( 0.98 * 2)

= 1.98

Even if the stock with the highest beta had an advantage of weighing such a high figure, it it mathematically impossible for the portfolio beta to be higher than it.

Tranquility Company manufactures ceiling fans and uses an activityminusbased costing system. Each ceiling fan has 20 separate pa

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each ceiling fan has 20 separate parts.

The direct materials cost is $ 85

Each ceiling fan requires 3 hours of machine time to manufacture.

Activity (Allocation Base) - Predetermined Overhead Allocation Rate

Materials handling (Number of parts) - $0.04

Machining (Machine hours) - $7.8

Assembling (Number of parts) - $0.35

Packaging (Number of finished units) - $3

Total unitary cost= direct material + allocated overhead

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Total unitary cost= 85 + (0.04*20 + 7.8*3 + 0.35*20 + 3*1)= $119.2

At the time of her grandson's birth, a grandmother deposits $4000 in an account that pays 5% compounded monthly. What will be t

defon

Answer:

$874,507,135

Explanation:

To find the final capital, we use the compound interest formula:

Final Capital (FC)= Initial Capital (IC)*[(1+interest(i))]^(number of periods(n))

The problem is givining this information:

IC= $4000

i= 5% compounded monthly

n=21 (is it 21 because the grandmother started at the granson´s birth, if she would started when the baby had 1 year, then n=20 and so on)

Before we apply the formula, we have to notice that there is and inconsistency. The interest rate is compounded monthly but n is in years. So, we must change i or n. We will change the interest.

First, we have to transform the periodic interest rate into an Effective Annual rate using this formula:

Effective Annual rate= [(1+periodic interest)^(n)] -1

Effective Annual rate= [(1+5%)^(12)]-1= 79,59%

Now, we can apply the first formula:

FC= $4000*(1+79,59%)^(21)= $874,507,135
