Answer:
a. .938 If the exchange rate is less than this, it costs more dollars to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in the Euro area.
Explanation:
We can see in the example that the Euro is cheaper than the dollar in purchasing-power parity. More specifically, the exchange rate is .938 euros per dollar.
This is why it is more expensive to buy a tall latte in the U.S. than in Europe. The Euro is cheaper.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option A: a person with a high opportunity cost of time.
Explanation:
To begin with, the opportunity cost of something is what the person sacrificies in order to be doing that thing. Therefore that when we talk about the opportunity cost of time it refers to what the person sacrificies in order to do something with that time. If the person has a high opportunity cost of time then the sacrificies that he made with that time will be higher than other person that has a low opportunity cost of time, meaning that the time spent by that person is less important than to the one that has a lot of time to spare.
Answer:
17.27 years
Explanation:
For this question we use the NPER formula that is shown on the attachment below:
Provided that
Present value = $340,000
Future value = $25,000
PMT = $35,000
Rate of interest = 7.5%
The formula is shown below:
= NPER(Rate;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this, the number of year is 17.27 years
Answer:
Total cost= $204,750
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs: supervisor’s salary $3,000; factory rent $6,500
Mixed costs: utilities $3,500 + $10.25 per unit
Variable costs per unit:
manufacturing labor wages $30.00
supplies used in production $13.50
packaging cost $7.25
warranty cost $4
Required: Compute total costs to be incurred for a week with 2,950 units of activity.
Fixed costs= 3,000 + 6,500 + 3,500= $13,000
Variable costs= (10.25 + 30 + 13.5 + 7.25 + 4)*2,950= $191,750
Total cost= $204,750
Answer:
The actual labor rate per hour is $12
Explanation:
First and foremost, we need to understand that a direct labor spending variance of $990(unfavorable) means that the firm spent an additional $990 compared to what was expected.
Also, the spending variance is computed as the actual labor rate minus the standard labor rate multiplied by the actual labor hours worked
spending variance=(actual labor rate-standard labor rate)*actual labor hours
spending variance=$990
actual labor rate=unknown=(assume it is X)
standard labor rate=$11
actual labor hours worked=990
$990=(X-$11)*990
$990/990=X-$11
$1=X-$11
X=$1+$11
X=actual labor rate=$12
