Answer:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $32 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
At the beginning of the current year, management estimated that $672,000 in overhead costs would be incurred and the company would produce and sell 2,000 units of the flexible model and 10,000 units of the rigid model.
The flexible model requires 3.0 hour(s) of direct labor time per unit, and the rigid model requires 1.50 hour(s).
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base=
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 672,000/(2000*3 + 10000*1.5)= $32 per direct labor hour
The answer is:
B Because idk
Answer:
the portfolio's return will be Ep(r)= 9.2 %
Explanation:
if the stock lies on the security market line , then the expected return will be
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf)
where
Ep(r) = expected return of the portfolio
rf= risk free return
E(M) = expected return of the market
β = portfolio's beta
then
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf)
E(M) = (Ep(r) - rf ) / β + rf
replacing values
E(M) = (Ep(r) - rf ) / β + rf
E(M) = ( 17.2% - 3.2%) /1.4 + 3.2% = 13.2%
since the stock and the risk free asset belongs to the security market line , a combination of both will also lie in this line, then the previous equation of expected return also applies.
Thus for a portfolio of β=0.6
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf) = 3.2% + 0.6*(13.2%-3.2%) = 9.2 %
Ep(r)= 9.2 %
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Real GDP measure total economic output by an economy in a specific geographical boundary regardless of ownership of factors of production, within a year, ceteris paribus.
Real GDP is a good indicator but is not a perfect indicator as underground economy (private tuition whereby taxes and consumption of goods and services) are not accounted for.
Real GDP does not measure Non-Material standard of living like leisure hours, health and life expectancy... It needs other indicators.
Both B and D is a bit effy as:
For D, GDP does not even measure such Non-Material SOL
For B, GDP is not 100 percent accurate on measuring household production (local production? I believe there is no such phrasing as household production as by economics, household is involved in household spending, Contributing to Consumption expenditure in Aggregate Demand.) as there are other factors like presence of underground economy that is not accounted for.
However, B seems like the most accurate ans as it still measures national output.
Answer: there will be too much pollution
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that government officials have set an emissions tax to reduce pollution and that the optimal tax should have been $1,500 but government officials have set the tax equal to $500.
It should be noted that due to the fact that the optimal tax has been set below the equilibrium, this will lead to a rise in pollution as the people will be aware that they're paying less than the optimal level which will lead to more pollution. An increase in the optimal tax will have help in reducing the pollution.
