Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Kelvin buys more donuts at $0.80 per donut than at $0.95 per donut, other things equal.

Explanation:

The demand law states that if the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity demanded for that good or service will increase. On the other hand, if the price of a god or service increases, the quantity demanded will decrease. The price-quantity demanded of the demand law is inversely proportional, <em>ceteris paribus</em>.

Thus, Kelvin's case is an example of the demand law since he purchases more donuts when the price is lower ($0.80) and purchases fewer donuts when the price is higher ($0.95).

Orlando Company, which applies overhead to production on the basis of machine hours, reported the following data for the period
astraxan [27]

Answer:

$37,600 favorable

Explanation:

Variable overhead spending variance can be computed as;

= (Actual hours worked × Actual variable overhead rate) - ( Actual hours worked - Standard variable overhead rate)

= ( 18,800 hours × $77,700/12,000) - (18,800 hours × $4.5)

= [(18,800 × $6.5) - (18,800 × $4.5)]

= $122,200 - $84,600

= $37,600 favorable

shtirl [24]
The effective interest rate is given by

r= \left(1+\frac{i}{t}\right)^t-1

Given that the <span>bond yeilds an annual yield of 6.7 percent and pays coupons twice a year.

The effective interest rate is given by:

r= \left(1+\frac{0.067}{2}\right)^2-1  \\  \\ =(1+0.0335)^2-1 \\  \\ =(1.0335)^2-1=1.0681-1 \\  \\ =0.0681=6.81\%</span>

Firms HD and LD are identical except for their level of debt and the interest rates they pay on debt—HD has more debt and pays a
Luden [163]

Answer:

2.41%

Explanation:

The difference between the two firms' ROEs is shown below:-

Particulars          Firm HD                             Firm LD

Assets $200      Debt ratio 50%            Debt ratio 30%

EBIT $40            Interest rate 12%          Interest rate 10%

Tax rate 35%

Debt                            $100                              $60

Interest                        $12                                  $6

                          ($100 × 12%)                       ($60 × 10%)      

Taxable income         $28                                 $36

                               ($40- $12)                          ($40 - $6)

Net income                $18.2                                $22.1

                       $28 × (1 - 0.35)                     $36 × (1 - 0.35)

Equity                          $100                                $140

                              ($200 - $100)                   ($200 - $60)

ROE                              18.2%                               15.79%

                           ($18.2 ÷ $100)                   ($22.1 ÷ $140)

Taxable income = EBIT - Interest

Net income = Income - Taxable income

Equity = Assets - Debt

ROE = Net income ÷ Equity

Difference in ROE = ROE Firm HD - ROE Firm LD

= 18.2% - 15.79%

= 2.41%

So, for computing the difference between the two firms' ROEs we simply deduct the ROE firm LD from ROE firm HD.

Porter Company uses standard costs for its manufacturing division. Standards specify 0.1 direct labor hours per unit of product.
kkurt [141]

Answer:

1,370.85 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Standard rate :

= Budgeted variable overhead costs ÷ Budgeted direct labor hours

= $13500 ÷ 640

Direct labor hours = $21.09 per direct labor hour

Standard time to produce goods :

= Budgeted direct labor hours  ÷ Production volume

= 640 ÷ 6,400

= 0.10 hours

VOH Efficiency Variance

= ( SH − AH ) × SR

where,

SH are standard direct labor hours allowed

AH are the actual direct labor hours

SR is the standard variable overhead rate

(SH − AH ) × SR

= [(4,200 × 0.10) - 485] × $21.09

= (420 - 485) × $21.09

= 1,370.85 Unfavorable
