Answer:

The workers will only produce oranges.

Explanation:

'Opportunity cost' is an important concept which shows the relationship between choice and scarcity. For example: One can spend money and time on one thing at a time but loses the opportunity do perform the other things, which would be his opportunity cost. Like you take a vacation for the money you have but the opportunity cost is not having a new car.

Relative price is the price of one commodity in terms of another. In the given situation, opportunity cost of an apple is 3 oranges and relative price of apple is 3, so the workers will produce only oranges, as it will be more profitable.

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1. Why is this an operating lease for Child Company?

The life of the asset is 10 years while the lease is only 3 years long, so it cannot be classified as a financial lease.

2. What are the amounts of the right-of-use asset and lease liability that Child Company should report on its balance sheet at December 31, 20X1?

annual lease payment = $128,000 (ordinary annuity)

PVIFA, 9%, 3 periods = 2.5313

present value = $128,000 x 2.5313 = $324,006.40

3. How much lease expense should Child Company recognize in 20X1?

lease expense = PV of lease x interest rate = $324,006.40 x 9% = $29,160.58

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

14.60%

Explanation:

The computation of market rate of return is shown below:-

Market rate of return = (Dividend × (1 + Growth rate)) ÷ Current price of stock + Growth rate

= ($2.8 × (1 + 3.8%)) ÷ 26.91 + 0.038

= ($2.8 × 1.038) ÷ 26.91 + 0.038

= $2.9064 ÷ 26.91 + 0.038

= 0.108 + 0.038  

= 14.60%

So, for computing the market rate of return we simply applied the above formula.

  • The overall results will be misleading.
  • The tax credits and balancing allowances and charges will also be inaccurate.
