Answer:

GDP grew by $2,200

Explanation:

G<em>ross domestic product (GDP) which is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced in a country over a given period of time. The GDP can be calculated using the value added approach.</em>

Here the GPD figure is ascertained by summing the amount of additional value created by each factor of production at each stage of the production process of the final product.

<em>Only the values added are summed, the cost of the inputs or intermediate goods are not included</em>

<em>In this question, the final value of $2200 represents the amount by which the GDP has increased in the period. This also can be verified using the value-added approach as follows</em>

                                                   Value added($)

Gold miner   -                                   600

Mining company : 1000 -600 =      400

Jewerlry maker  :1600 - 1000 =      600

Departmental store :2200 -1600 = <u>600</u>

Total value added                           <u>2,200</u>

Over the years, O'Brien Corporation's stockholders have provided $20,000,000 of capital, when they purchased new issues of stock
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$13,000,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Total Book Value of Equity = $20,000,000

Common stock outstanding = 1,000,000 shares

Selling price per share = $33.00

Market value of equity:

= Selling price per share × Shares outstanding

= $33.00 × 1,000,000

= $33,000,000

O'Brien's MVA:

= Market value of equity - Total Book Value of Equity

= $33,000,000 - $20,000,000

= $13,000,000

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Machine setup= $60 per setup

Machining= $15 per machine hour

Inspections= $50 per inspection

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead costs:

Machine setup= 150,000

Machining= 375,000

Inspections= 87,500

The cost driver for each activity and the expected annual usage are number of setups 2,500, machine hours 25,000, and number of inspections 1,750.

To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

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

Machine setup= 150,000/2,500= $60 per setup

Machining= 375,000/25,000= $15 per machine hour

Inspections= 87,500/1,750= $50 per inspection
