Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Over applied Overhead =$ 42,500

Explanation:

Actual Overhead $325,000

Estimated Overhead $350,000

Over applied overhead is when the Predetermined overhead is more than the actual overhead . Under applied overhead is when the Predetermined overhead is less than the actual overhead .

Predetermined Overhead rate= Overhead / total direct labor hours

= 350,000/ 500,000 (100)= 70%

Applied Overhead = Predetermined Overhead rate( actual direct labor hours)

= 70 % (525,000) = $367,500

Applied Overhead $367,500

Less Actual Overhead $325,000

Over applied Overhead =$ 42,500

Two goods are considered to be related goods by many buyers: if the price of one increases, buyers buy more of the other. This i

vovikov84 [41]

Answer: False.

Explanation:

False.

This indicates that the two goods are substitute goods, not the complementary goods.

In case of complementary goods, the price of one good is inversely related with the demand for other related good. For example, car and petrol; if the price of petrol increases as a result demand for cars decreases.

In case of substitute goods, the price of one good is directly related with the demand for other related good. For example, tea and coffee; if the price of coffee increases as a result demand for tea increases. So, there is a positive relationship between the price of one good and demand for the other good.

Answer:

Explanation:

Annual worth: this will be the annuity payment equivalent to all the cashflow of the investment. Thus the PMT of the net present value

Cash Investment at F0: 230,000/2 = 115,000

present value of 7,500 salvage value:

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 7,500.00

time 7 years

MARR: 10% = 0.1

$\frac{7500}{(1 + 0.1)^{7} } = PV$

PV 3,848.69

Then, we need to calculate the present value of the loan discounted at 10%

half the investment is finance: 230,000 / 2 = 115,000

Then, this capitalize 2 year at 8% before the first payment:

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

Principal 115,000.00

time 2 year

MARR: 10% = 0.08000

$115000 \: (1+ 0.08)^{2} = Amount$

Amount 134,136.00

Now we need to discount this loan at 10% which is our rate of return:

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 134,136.00

time 2.00

MARR: 10% = 0.1

$\frac{134136}{(1 + 0.1)^{2} } = PV$

PV 110,856.20

Finally: we add this values to get the resent worth:

115,000 + 110,856.20 - 3,848.69 = 222,007.51

Last step, we calculate the PMT of the present worth:

$PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = C\\$

PV 222,007.51

time 7 years

MARR: 10% = 0.1

$222007.51 \div \frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-7} }{0.1} = C\\$

C $ 45,601.564

why is government intervention often crucial when dealing with both positive and negative externalities?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Because the government can use her sovereign power to both mitigate negative externalities as well as encourage positive externalities.

Explanation:

A positive externality occurs when the transaction between a producer and end user benefits a third party that did not take art in the process.

A very Good example is Education. There is a third party benefit to the society when we have more educated citizens.

A negative externality happens when the business transaction between a manufacturer and consumer affects a third party adversely. a typical example is cigarettes. When cigarettes is consumed by the end user, the smoke can affect the health of a third party that was not part of the initial transaction.

To deal with both positive and negative externalities, government intervention is very crucial.

Government encourages positive externalities like education by subsidizing the cost of attending a school. They also enact laws that make basic education compulsory.

In the case of negative externalities, Government can intervene with a ban on producing harmful goods and also set a legislation about smoking in public laces to mitigate the health complications caused by third party inhalation.
