Sophie [7]
D.) An account earning interest compounded daily.

This is the account that would have the greatest accumulated value at the end of one year.

Let us assume the following figures.
Principal = 1,000
Interest rate = 12% p.a.
Term 1 year 

a) account earning no interest = 1,000
b) account earning simple interest
S.I. = 1,000 x 12% x 1 = 120 
Balance = 1000 + 120= 1,120
c) account earning interest compounded annually
FV = 1,000 (1+.12)¹
FV = 1,000 (1.12)
FV = 1,120
d) account compounded daily
FV = 1,000 (1 + .12/365)³⁶⁵
FV = 1,000 (1 + 0.00033)³⁶⁵
FV = 1,000 (1.00033)³⁶⁵
FV = 1,000 (1.128)
FV = 1,128

Alika [10]

Jethro has an absolute advantage in all aspects of camping: he is faster at carrying a backpack, gathering firewood, paddling a canoe, setting up tents, making a meal, and washing up.

Absolute advantage refers to an individual's capacity to efficiently carry out a task when compared to other individuals or groups.

  • In economics, this broadly refers to the ability and capacity to produce and conduct an economic good or a particular service in a more efficient manner than the competitors.
  • In this case Jethro has an absolute advantage in all aspects of camping.
  • Within the constraints of the economic activity, production is more efficient and higher.
  • Fewer resources are required to produce a particular commodity and/or service that needs higher resources for the competitors.
  • With fewer inputs, the outputs stand maximized in the context of absolute advantage.

Therefore, Jethro has an absolute advantage in all aspects of camping: he is faster at carrying a backpack, gathering firewood, paddling a canoe, setting up tents, making a meal, and washing up.

Cotton White, Inc., makes specialty clothing for chefs. The company reported the following costs for 2018: Factory rent $ 42,000
Doss [256]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>1) Direct materials are those materials and supplies that are consumed during the manufacture of a product, and which are directly identified with that product.</u>

<u></u>

Direct material= Thread + Premium quality cotton material + Buttons

Direct material= 1,000 + 42,000 + 750

Direct material= $43,750

<u>2) Direct labor is production or service labor that is assigned to a specific product, cost center, or work order.  </u>

Direct labor= Wages paid to seamstresses  + Wages paid to cutters Direct labor= 75,000 + 50,000

Direct labor=  $125,000

<u>3) Manufacturing overhead refers to indirect factory-related costs that are incurred when a product is manufactured</u><u>.</u>

Manufacturing overhead= Factory rent + Utilities for factory + Cutting room supervisor's salary + Factory insurance + Depreciation on sewing machines

Manufacturing overhead= 42,000 + 22,000 + 30,000 + 15,000 + 6,000

Manufacturing overhead= $115,000

4) Total manufacturing costs= 43,750 + 125,000 + 115,000

Total manufacturing costs= $283,750

5) Prime cost= direct material + direct labor

Prime cost= 43,750 + 125,000

Prime cost= $168,750

6) Conversion cost= direct labor + MOH

Conversion cost= 125,000 + 115,000

Conversion cost= $240,000

7) <u>Period costs are not directly tied to the production process</u>. Overhead or sales, general, and administrative (SG&A) costs are considered period costs. SG&A includes costs of the corporate office, selling, marketing, and the overall administration of company business.

Period costs= Company advertising + Depreciation on salespersons' vehicles + President's salary

Period costs= 18,000 + 25,000 + 75,000

Period costs= $118,000

Dovator [93]

The formula for IRR in excel is :irr(values)

The formula can be applied to the cash outflow of $4,000 and cash inflow of $9,250 in five years' time as follows

Years                Cash flow

0                       -$4,000

1                          $0

2                          $0

3                           $0

4                            $0

5                          $9,250

irr(-$4000 to $9,250)

irr is 18.25%

The amount of receivable each year can be computed using pmt formula in excel

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

rate is the irr of 18.25%

pv is -$4000

fv is the future amount 0f $9,250

=pmt(18.25%,5,-4000,9250)

pmt=-$0.225 which closest to zero amount
