Answer:

(There is typo error in question option c is C. 59.5%; 24.3%; 16.2%)

The correct answer is C. 59.5%; 24.3%; 16.2%.

Explanation:

This question requires us to tell what combination of investment will generate 8% return on our porffolio. To find out we will evaluate each option given in the question.

A. 0%; 60%; 40%

Return = 0% * 5% + 60% * 14% + 40%*10%

           = 12.4%

B. 25%; 45%; 30%

Return = 25% * 5% + 45% * 14% + 30%*10%

           = 10.55%

C. 59.5%; 24.3%; 16.2%

Return = 40% * 5% + 24% * 14% + 16%*10%

           = 8%

D. 50%; 30%; 20%

Return = 50% * 5% + 30% * 14% + 20%*10%

           = 8.7%

Answer:

$307,300

Explanation:

Total cost of Job 179:

= Direct material for Job 179 + Direct labor cost for Job 179 + Overhead cost for Job 179

= $30,500 + $45,000 + (2,000 × $25)

= $30,500 + $45,000 + $50,000

= $125,500

Total cost of Job 177 and Job 179:

= Total cost of Job 179 + cost of Job 177

= $125,500 + $94,000

= $219,500

Sales revenue for February:

= Total cost of Job 177 and Job 179 × Markup percentage

=  $219,500 + ($219,500 × 40%)

= $219,500 + $87,800

= $307,300

Crank

Answer:

Economic loss=$(28,000)

Explanation

Accounting profit is the difference between total revenue and explicit cost.

Explicit cost refers to all cash and non cash cost incurred to produce the goods and services

Economic profit = sales revenue - explicit cost - implicit cost

Implicit cost is the opportunity cost - the value of the next best alternative sacrificed to produce the product.

The opportunity cost in the case is the worth of the offer to work elsewhere which is equal to $25,000

Economic profit = (7,000× 6) - 45,000- 25,000=$ (28,000)

Economic loss=$(28,000)
