Answer: a. $120,000
b. $6,000
c. Yes
Explanation:
a. It is said that the collection centres would help reduce the collection time by 2 days and that every day $60,000 comes in.
If the proposal will reduce the amount of time taken to collect by 2 days then that means that the amount freed up is the amount that they would have collected in two days had it not been for the system.
That amount would be,
= $60,000 * 2
= $120,000
b. If they used this free up cash to pay off a debt that was accumulating 5% per year then the 5% will be saved.
The amount saved therefore is,
= 120,000 * 5%
= $6,000
By retiring a $120,000 that was accruing $6,000 a year, the proposal has enabled that $6,000 to be saved instead.
c. The cost of implementing this proposal is $5,200 per year and yet the savings it gives in interest is $6,000.
As the savings are higher than the cost, the number definitely suggest that the project should be implemented because it is more beneficial than it costs.
Answer:
The answer is 60%
Explanation:
Labor force is the total number of people that have job(employed) and the number of people who are willing, able and actively searching for job(unemployed) in a population.
Labor force participation rate is calculated by dividing the labor force by the noninstitutionalized population.
Labor force = employed + underemployed + unemployed
= 96 + 31 + 8
=135 million
So we have:
(135 ÷ 243) x 100 percent.
60% (the nearest whole percentage)
Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
Sale of share = NQOs received × No. of shares × Selling price per share
= 10 × 8 × $22
= $1,760
Gain realised:
= Sale of share - Basis
= $1,760 - [NQOs received × No. of shares × Selling price per share at $15]
= $1,760 - [10 × 8 × $15]
= $1,760 - $1,200
= $560
Tax paid = Gain realised × preferential rate
= $560 × 15%
= $84
Answer:
1. $5.62
2. $15,174
Explanation:
1. The computation of the cost of one unit of product under variable costing is shown below:-
Total product cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable overhead
= $123,000 + $93,000 + $65,000
= $281,000
Unit product cost = Total product cost ÷ Produced units
= $281,000 ÷ $50,000
= $5.62
2. The computation of cost of ending inventory under variable costing is shown below:-
Unsold at end = Unit produced - Unit sold
= 50,000 - 47,300
= 2,700
Cost of ending inventory = Number of units sold × Unit product cost
= $5.62 × 2,700
= $15,174
Consideration refers to what each party gets in exchange for his or her promise under a contract. A contract has four elements: agreement, consideration, contractual capacity, and legal object. Agreement refers to the contract itself, consideration to the results of the contract, contractual capacity represents your legal ability to sign the contract, and legal object is the purpose of the agreement.
