Answer:

The profit is $12,500

Explanation:

The profit on the contract can be computed using the formula below:

profit/loss on the contract=(forward price-spot rate)*volume of currency sold

forward price is 1 euro to $1.20

spot price     1 euro to  $1.10

volume of currency sold is Euros 125,000

profit/loss on the contract=($1.20-$1.10)*125,000

                                             =$12,500

Invariably the trader sold each US dollar $0.10 more than the spot rate ($1.20-$1.10),when that is multiplied the volume of Euros sold,it gives $12,500 in profit.

This implies that the buyer could have bought the currency cheaper on contract date

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: Debit Unearned Fees, $8,145; Credit Fees Earned, $8,145.

Explanation:

The $32,580 are for 36 months so the amount per month would need to be calculated.

= 32,580/36

= $905

The subscriptions were paid on the 1st of April which means that only 9 months (April to December) of the first year will have revenue recognized for them.

= 905 * 9

= $8,145

Correct entry would be to debit the Unearned fees account as it is a liability that needs to reduce to reflect that fees have now been recognized.

Credit the Fees Earned account to recognize revenue.

Debit Unearned Fees, $8,145; Credit Fees Earned, $8,145.

Sidana [21]

Answer: SEE EXPLANATION!

Explanation:

Since the time when Billie Eilish first came into the music scene a few years ago, fans have not been able to get enough inner music. At just 18 years old, Eilish has already accomplished more in her career than other artists do in a lifetime. Her music and style is uniquely different, but that is what makes her so great. Many people in this world feel like they are different or “weird.” But when they see this young girl who is famous for dancing to the beat of her own drum, they realize that being different is not a bad thing.

Swift showed an interest in music at an early age, and she progressed quickly from roles in children’s theatre to her first appearance before a crowd of thousands. She was age 11 when she sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” before a Philadelphia 76ers basketball game, and the following year she picked up the guitar and began to write songs. Taking her inspiration from country music artists such as Shania Twain and the Dixie Chicks, Swift crafted original material that reflected her experiences of tween alienation. When she was 13, Swift’s parents sold their farm in Pennsylvania to move to Hendersonville, Tennessee, so that she could devote more of her time to courting country labels in nearby Nashville. A development deal with RCA Records allowed Swift to make the acquaintance of recording-industry veterans, and in 2004, at age 14, she signed with Sony/ATV as a songwriter. At venues in the Nashville area, she performed many of the songs she had written, and it was at one such performance that she was noticed by record executive Scott Borchetta. Borchetta signed Swift to his fledgling Big Machine label, and her first single, “Tim McGraw” (inspired by and prominently referencing a song by Swift’s favourite country artist), was released in the summer of 2006.

In February 2003, Shelton released The Dreamer, and its first single, "The Baby," reached No. 1 on the country music charts, hanging on for three weeks. The second and third singles from the album, "Heavy Liftin'" and "Playboys of the Southwestern World," each cracked the top 50, and The Dreamer went gold. In 2004 Blake Shelton began releasing a string of hit albums, beginning with Blake Shelton’s Barn & Grill. The second single from the album, "Some Beach," became his third No. 1 hit, and the singles "Goodbye Time" and "Nobody but Me" reached top 10, sending the album to gold status. Along with the album, Shelton released an accompanying video collection, Blake Shelton's Barn & Grill: A Video Collection. Pure BS was released in early 2007, and its first two singles, "Don't Make Me" and "The More I Drink," were both top 20 hits on the country charts. That same year, Shelton made his reality TV debut, appearing first as a judge on Nashville Star and then on Clash of the Choirs

g The effect on revenue due to a marginal increase in the input is called the marginal revenue product. Match the statements bel
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Statement true for Imperfect Competition Markets

Explanation:

Marginal Revenue Product is additional revenue due to hiring of additional input, it is product of marginal product & marginal revenue = MP x MR

Value Marginal Product is money value of additional production with additional input, product of marginal product (MP) & price (AR), = MP x AR

Input demand curves are derived demand curves, derived from demand of final goods. In perfect competition, demand is perfectly inelastic & horizontal, AR = MR, so MRP = VMP in this case. In imperfect competition market (oligopoly, monopoly etc) - MR < AR, so MRP < VMP in this case.

evablogger [386]

Answer:

$1,800

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the variable overhead efficiency variance

Using this formula

VOH Efficiency Variance = Budgeted VOH based on Actual - Budgeted VOH/Standard Qty

Let plug in the formula

VOH Efficiency Variance = ((16,000 * $1.80/hr) - ((5,000 * 3.00hrs/unit * $1.80/hr))

VOH Efficiency Variance = $(28,800.00 - $27,000.00)

VOH Efficiency Variance = $1.800

Therefore Using the four-variance approach, what is the variable overhead efficiency variance will be $1,800
