Answer:
The correct answer is option c.
Explanation:
The nominal interest rate was 5 percent.
The CPI was 150.3 at the end of the year, and the CPI was 144.2 at the beginning of the year.
The 5% nominal interest rate means that the dollar value of savings increased at 5%.
Inflation rate
= 
= 0.0423 or 4.2%
The real interest rate
= Nominal interest rate - rate of inflation
= 5 - 4.2
= 0.8%
The real interest rate of 0.8% indicates that the purchasing power of savings increased at 0.8%.
Answer:
Programmed decision
Explanation:
The programmed decision is the decision which are taken on a daily basis or we can day to day basis or routine basis. It is likely for solving the structured problems
In the given case, since minimum three bids are received and the bid who has less value meets the specification that results in an acceptance
Therefore this case is of Programmed decision
Answer:
$27.2
Explanation:
First we have to calculate the total estimated manufacturing overheads which shall be determined as follows:
Estimated total manufacturing overheads=Variable manufacturing overhead+ Fixed manufacturing overheads
Variable manufacturing overhead=Estimated labour hours*manufacturing overhead per labour hour
=75,000*$10.70=$802,500
Fixed manufacturing overheads=$1,237,500
Estimated total manufacturing overheads=$802,50+$1,237,500
=$2,040,000
Now we will compute the predetermined overhead rate which shall be determined using the following formula:
Predetermined overhead rate=Estimated total manufacturing overheads/Estimated labour hours
Predetermined overhead rate=$2,040,000/75,000=$27.2
