Answer:

increase by $10.  

Explanation:

The marginal cost of hiring a fourth worker is already $90. This means that any price floor (minimum wage) imposed by the government will not affect this worker or the company because his/her wage was already equal to the new minimum wage.

The firm's profit = marginal revenue product - marginal cost = $100 - $90 = $10.

Calculating the cost per unit:

\text{Direct material}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$5\\\\\text{Direct labor} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \$3\\\\\text{Variable overhead}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$1.5\\\\\text{Fixed overhead}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$7\\\\\text{Cost per unit}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$16.5\\\\

For question 2:

Calculating the ending inventory units:

= \text{Beginning inventory + units produced - ending inventory}\\\\= 0+40,000-38,400\\\\= 1600\ units\\\\

Calculating the cost for the Ending inventory:

=1600\ units \times \$16.5\\\\=\$26,400\\\\

For question 3:

Calculating the absorption costing for the income statement:

Particular                                             Amount

Sales (38,400\times \$24)\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \   \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \$921,600

-COGS(38,400\times \$16.5)\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \  \$633,600

Gross profit                                          \$288,000

Cost of variable marketing  (\$1.2\times 38,400)\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \$46,080

Suppose a bank offers to lend you $10,000 for 1 year on a loan contract that calls for you to make interest payments of $250.00
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

10.38%

Explanation:

From the question above a bank offers to lend an amount of $10,000 for a period of 1 year

The bank expects an interest of $250 to be paid every 4 months

= $250×4

= $1,000

Total amount of interest= $1,000

The first step is to calculate the nominal interest

= (1000/10,000)×100

= 0.1×100

= 10%

Therefore, the effective annual rate on the loan can be calculated as follows

= (1+r/m)^m-1

r = 10% , m = 4

= [1+(10/100)/4]^-1

=[ (1+0.1/4)^4]-1

= (1+0.025^4)-1

= (1.025^4)-1

= 1.1038-1

= 0.1038×100

= 10.38%

Hence the effective annual rate in the loan is 10.38%
