Answer:
ending RE 30,000
Explanation:
Using the acounting equation we solve for the beginning RE
<em>Assets = liab + equity</em>
155,000 = 85,600 + 52,400 + Retained Earnings
155,000 - 85,600 - 52,400 = <em>17,000</em>
beginning RE 17,000
net income
revenues 36,000 - 20,000 expenses = 16,000
dividends: 3,000
ending RE: 17,000 + 16,000 - 3,000 = 30,000
Answer:
Direct Material Cost
= Cost of hardware + cost of wood
= 42,300 + 121,200
= $163,500
Direct labor
= Wages of Assembly workers + Finishing workers
= 87,400 + 74,100
= $161,500
Manufacturing Overhead
= Depreciation + Factory prop. taxes + Factory rent + Glue + Production Supervisor salary + Utilities for factory + Wages for maintenance workers
= 32,000 + 15,500 + 50,000 + 3,030 + 41,200 + 27,800 + 33,200
= $202,730
Prime Cost
= Direct labor + Direct material
= 161,500 + 163,500
= $325,000
Conversion Cost
= Direct labor + Manufacturing Overhead
= 161,500 + 202,730
= $364,230
Total Period Cost
= Advertising + Sales Manager's salary
= 25,600 + 41,500
= $67,100
Answer:
(a) 3.7
(b) 3.7
Explanation:
The unemployment rate is calculated as the ration of unemployed workers over the labor force. The labor force is the total number of employed plus unemployed workers:
Then if there were 155 million people in the labor force and 7.4% where unemployed that means that 11.47 million people where unemployed
If unemployment rate would have been 5% we have
That means that 3.72 million fewer unemployed workers. Since Labor Force is the sum of unemployed and employed workers. The reduction in unemployment implies that they were now employed .
Answer:
B. The demand is more elastic than supply .
Explanation:
Demand & supply are buyers & sellers ability , willingness to buy & sell respectively .
Elasticity means responsiveness of demand & supply to prices.
'Tax burden' can be forwarded / shared only in case of Indirect taxes , whose burden & incidence lie on different people.
The burden falls on the party (consumers / suppliers) whose market element (demand / supply) is inelastic i.e less responsive to prices.
So , if sellers are bearing larger burden : It means demand is relatively elastic & supply is relatively inelastic.
