Epicure Market prepares fresh gourmet entrees each day. On Wednesday, 80 baked chicken dinners were made at a cost of $3.50 each
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The price of a Dinner= $6.22

Explanation:

<em>Mark-up is the proportion of the product cost which is expected to be made as profit. In other words, it is profit expressed as a percentage of product cost.</em>

To account for the spoilage rate of 10%, $3.50 unit cost would be consider as 90% of the cost. Thus, 100% of the cost would be given as follows:

Dinner cost = 100/(100-10)× 3.50= 3.89

The price of a Dinner = product cost + 60% of product cost

The price of a Dinner = 3.89 + 60%*3.89= $6.22

The price of a Dinner= $6.22

3. Suppose Tyrone wants to open a savings account that earns 3.5% simple interest per year. He wants it to be worth $1500 in 4 y
saw5 [17]

Answer:

$1,307

Explanation:

The computation of the future value by using the following formula is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + interest rate)^number of years  

$1,500 = Present value × (1 + 0.035)^4

So, the present value is

= $1,500 ÷ (1.035)^4

= $1,307

Hence, the present value is $1,307 and the same is to be considered

The demand for textbooks is Q = 200 – P + 25 U – 50 P beer. Assume that the unemployment rate U is 8 and the price of beer P bee
Readme [11.4K]

Answer: -0.5

Explanation:

Based on the information given, the price elasticity of demand will be calculated as follows:

= dQ/dP × P/Q

where,

dQ/dP = -1

P = 100

Q = 200 – P + 25 U – 50 P beer

Q = 200 - 100 + 25(8) - 50(2)

Q = 200 - 100 + 200 - 100

Q = 200

Therefore, dQ/dP × P/Q

= -1 × (100/200)

= -1 × 1/2

= -1 × 0.5

= -0.5

The price elasticity of demand is -0.5.

Horrocks Company granted 180,000 restricted stock awards of its no par common shares to executives, subject to forfeiture if emp
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

c. 120,000 shares

Explanation:

\frac{No adjustment to the numerator}{180,000-60,000= 120,000}

*Assumed purchase of treasury shares

$600,000

//\frac{10}{60,000}

Note: The proceeds also must be increased (or decreased) by any tax benefits that would be added to (or deducted from) paid-in capital when the eventual tax deduction differs from the amount expense, the "excess tax benefit." Since that occurs when the stock price at vesting differs from the stock price at the grant date, the fact that the market price remained at $10 avoided that issue.

Which inventory method generally results in costs allocated to ending inventory that will approximate their current costs?
emmasim [6.3K]
Which inventory method generally results in costs allocated to ending inventory that will approximate their current costs? FIFO. The FIFO inventory method stands for first-in, first-out. This method allows businesses to keep track of their inventory on an old inventory out before the new inventory basis. The first out inventory is recorded as the first items sold even if they aren't exactly the oldest item.
