The foreign exchange market is the global market for the trading of currencies. It is largely decentralized and so are the overall operations; transactions can be done on a mobile phone hence making making choice C correct. Transactions are conducted over-the-counter , since it is not established on a floor or official exchange; this makes choice A correct. Additionally, foreign exchange markets are very competitive since all participants have access to perfect information and thus decisions made by one participant are not made due to an information advantage over another participant hence making choice C correct.

Kostelnik Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $285,600

variable manufacturing overhead= $2.70 per machine-hour

Estimated machine-hours= 42,000

Job A496:

Number of units in the job 20

Total machine-hours 80

Direct materials $910

Direct labor cost $1,820

First, we need to allocate overhead to Job A496:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (285,600/42,000) + 2.7

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $9.5 per machine hour

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 9.5*80= $760

Now, we can calculate the total cost:

Total cost= 910 + 1,820 + 760

Total cost= $3,490

Finally, we determine the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 3,490/20= $174.5

What is most often used in the classroom to decrease behaviors that are being maintained by teacher attention?

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Extinction.

Explanation:

Extinction is a technique used by Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) that corresponds to the interruption and elimination of the reinforcement of negative behavior whose central objective is to cause undesirable behaviors to be totally eliminated or not to occur again.

So there are criticisms about this discipline technique, as it is considered that the ideal is to present a substitution behavior in addition to just eliminating the negative behavior, since n extinction only positive behaviors are reinforced, and negatives ignored.

Cutler Petroleum, Inc., is trying to evaluate a generation project with the following cash flows:Year Cash Flow0 –$ 39,800,000 1

muminat

Answer:

The two IRRs are: - 76.49% and 36.79%

Explanation:

To simplify our "Hard work", let's denote the cash flow numbers in terms of '000 (To reduce the number of zeros).

IRR is that discount rate R, for which NPV = 0

NPV is the sum of discounted cash inflows and outflows. Therefore,

NPV ($'000) = - 39,800 + (63,800 / (1 + R) - [12,800 / (1 + R)2]

When NPV = 0 [If R is the IRR],

0 = - 39,800 + [(63,800 / (1 + R)] - [12,800 / (1 + R)2]

[12,800 / (1 + R)2] - [(63,800 / (1 + R)] + 39,800 = 0

To simplify further, let's put N = 1 + R. Also, let's divide both sides by 200 [Note: We're only doing arithmetical simplification to reduce the large numbers]]:

[64 / (N)2] - (319 / N) + 199 = 0

Multiplying all terms by (N2):

64 - 319N + 199 (N)2 = 0

that is,

199 (N)2 - 319N + 64 = 0

This is a quadratic equation with large coefficients. Solving quadratic equation is outside scope of this question (it belongs to Algebra), so I've used an Online Quadratic equation solver**, which returns following values of N:

N = 1.3679, and N = 0.2351

So:

1 + R = 1.3679, Or 1 + R = 0.2351

R = (1.3679 - 1) or R = (0.2351 - 1)

R = 0.3679 or R = - 0.7649

The two IRRs are: - 76.49% and 36.79%
