Answer:

Explanation:

The risk premium two years back = 11.5 - 8.7 = 2.8 %

current risk premium = 2.8/2 = 1.4%

Current risk free bond yields 7.8 %

So Rolling Coast expected rate of interest on bonds = 7.8 + 1.4

= 9.2 %

16. Which of the following cuts is ideal for smoking?
Ludmilka [50]

[ Answer ]

\boxed{Brisket}

[ Explanation ]

Brisket - Cut from breast or lower chest. Brisket comes from a cow or veal

Brisket is ideal for smoking because of its high fat content. When smoking meat, if the meat does not have lots of fat and is thing, the smoking process can dry out the meat. With brisket, the meat is very fat, causing the meat not to dry out and getting a tender juicy flavor.

When lighting a campfire or barbecue, you may notice lots of smoke. The smoke may affect your breathing, make you thirsty, or dry you out. This is the same affect of the meats. The smoke provides lots more flavor for the meat, and dries it out, if there is not enough fat on the meat.

Hache Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data concerning the first processing departmen
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797

Explanation:

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production

<u>Materials </u>

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 50%)                  =    925

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials             = 6,725

<u>Conversion</u>

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%)    = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 20%)                     =    370

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Conversion Costs =  6,170

Calculation of Cost per Equivalent units of Production

Materials

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

                                        = ($ 8,700 + $ 91,000) ÷ 6,725

                                        = $14.825

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

                                        = ($ 8,500 + $ 126,300) ÷ 6,170

                                        = $21.848

Calculation of cost of ending work in process inventory

Materials ( 925 ×  $14.825)             =  $13,713.12

Conversion Cost ( 370 × $21.848)  =  $8,083.76

Total                                                 =  $21,796.88

Thus,

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797.

At a specific point on the demand curve for backpacks, the elasticity of demand is calculated to be -0.5.a. At that point, we wo
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Inelastic; 5%; fall; 10%; rise

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand is always negative for normal goods. This happens because of the law of demand, that demand falls with rise in price.

Price elasticity between 0 and 1 shows inelastic demand.

This means that there is smaller change in demand due to a greater change in price level.

Price elasticity of demand is -0.5.

If the price falls by 10%, demand will increase by 5%.

The revenue will fall, because of greater fall in price.

If the price increases by 20%, demand will fall by 10%.

Revenue will increase because of greater increase in price.
