Took me a bit to understand what this is. I have no business sense at all.

Expected Rate of Return = 30%*5% + 9%*75% - 33% * (100 - 75 -5)%
Expected Rate of Return = 0.015 + 0.0675 - 33%*20%
Expected Rate of Return = 0.015 + 0.0675 - 0.066
Expected Rate of Return = 0.0165

This then is expressed as a %
0.0165 = 1.65 % Sounds like you are buying a US short term treasury.

When auto manufacturer BMW purchased the RollsminusRoyce brand​ name, BMW had to hire and train a new staff of assembly workers.
lord [1]

Answer:

B. $ 50 comma 400 unfavorable

Explanation:

The formula to compute the labor efficiency variance is shown below:

= Standard labor rate ×  (Standard hours for actual output - Actual hours)

where,

Standard labor rate is $28

Standard hours for actual output would be

= 1,600 cars × 3.25 direct labor hours per car

= 5,200 hours

And, the actual hour is 7,000 hours

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $28 × (5,200 hours - 7,000 hours)

= $50,400 unfavorable

A delivery company is considering adding another vehicle to its delivery fleet; each vehicle is rented for $100 per day. Assume
tangare [24]

Answer:

a. What is the MRP?

marginal revenue product = marginal product of labor x marginal revenue per output unit

MRP = 1,500 packages x $0.10 per package = $150

marginal resource cost (MRC) = $100 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)

The company should add the delivery truck because MRP is higher than MRC.

b. Now suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle doubles to $200 per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation?

MRP = $150 (doesn't change from question a)

MRC = $200 (the cost of renting the delivery truck)

The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.

c. Next suppose that the cost of renting a vehicle falls back down to $100 per day, but, due to extremely congested freeways, an additional vehicle would only be able to deliver 750 packages per day. What are the MRP and MRC in this situation?

MRP = 750 packages x $0.10 per package = $75

MRC = $100

The company should not add the delivery truck because MRP is less than MRC.

1. Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to ensure that investors invest only in companies that will be profitable.
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

1. False

2. False

3. False

4. True

5. True

Explanation:

1.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act was a federal law that was established by congress to sweep auditing and financial statements for public companies. The main aim for this was to improve the investor confidence by improving reliability in accounting statements. Errors in the financial statements for the public companies were to be minimized following this law especially in the wake of numerous cases of corporate crime. This law was never passed to ensure that investors only invest in companies that will be profitable, since the choice of which company to invest in is exclusively left to the investor. So the above statement is false.

2.

Ethics can be defined as a set of rules and regulation that govern the moral behavior of someone. Ethical standards vary from one region to another since they are majorly cultural, for example; a behavior in the United States can be considered as appropriate while the same behavior in a different place can be inappropriate. Ethical standards are either right or wrong, and the actions are judged on these terms. Ethics don't measure whether a actions are loyal or disloyal, thus the statement is false.

3.

The primary accounting standard setting body in the United States is Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). This body is charged with regulating and setting the best standard of accounting practice. The FASB usually constitutes a board whose officials are rigorously assessed. The board members have to be professionals in the field of accounting.  Securities and Exchange Commission on the other hand is an independent federal agency with the authority to enforce federal security laws. Thus the statement above is false.

4.

The historical cost principle suggests that the companies record assets cost at their original cost and continue to report them at their original cost over the time the asset is held. The historical cost principle is a generally accepted accounting principle that has been in use for a long time. The definition about the historical cost principle in the question above is therefor true.

5.

The monetary unit assumption dictates that business related activities be converted to monetary units. There are some business transactions that are however quite difficult to convert into monetary units, therefor the accountant in using this principle is only obliged to record only the transactions that can be measured in money terms. The statement about monetary units in the question above is thus true.
