Answer:

Factory overhead costs = 3000 + 7500 + 11800 = $22,300

Explanation:

Factory overhead costs are the costs that are not directly attributable to the production. This would include all the costs except for the direct materials and direct labor.

the total factory overhead costs would be,

Factory overhead costs = 3000 + 7500 + 11800 = $22,300

These costs are then allocated using the appropriate cost base to all the units produced.

Hope that helps.

What two possible reasons could cause the required return to differ from the coupon interest rate? (Select the best answer be

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

A. Cost of funds has changed

B. Firm's risk has changed

Explanation:

The required rate of return on bonds refers to an investor's expected rate of return which is based upon rate of return other investors earn in the market on similarly priced bonds. This is also referred to as yield to maturity i.e YTM.

Coupon rate of payment of bond is the interest payment on such bonds which is usually fixed at the time of issue of such bonds.

Required rate of return may differ on account of change in cost of funds to the issuer which is cost of debt denoted as $K_{d}$ . Cost of debt is determined by tax rate and net proceeds from the issue of such bonds.

Required rate of return may also change on account of change in the firm's risk. If the firm assumes more risk, such risk would deter investors from investing in such bonds and in such scenario, the firm has to offer higher coupon rate than the rate prevailing in the market to attract the investors.

You plan to invest in bonds that pay 6.0%, compounded annually. If you invest $10,000 today, how many years will it take for you

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The answer is 16 years.

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the value of an investment that is compounded annually is given by:

$V(n)=(1+R)^nP$

Where:

$n$ is the number of years the investment is compounded,

$R$ is the annual interest rate,

$P$ is the principal investment.

We know the following:

$25000=(1+0.06)^n \times 10000$

And we want to clear the value n from the equation.

The problem can be resolved as follows.

First step: divide each member of the equation by $10,000$ :

$\frac{ 25000}{10000}=(1+0.06)^n \times \frac{ 10000}{10000}$

$2.5=(1.06)^n$

Second step: apply logarithms to both members of the equation:

$log(2.5)=log (1.06)^n$

Third step: apply the logarithmic property $logA^n=n.logA$ in the second member of the equation:

$log(2.5)=n.log (1.06)$

Fourth step: divide both members of the equation by $log1.06$

$\frac{log(2.50)}{log (1.06)} =n$

$n= 15.7252$

We can round up the number and conclude that it will take 16 years for $10,000 invested today in bonds that pay 6% interest compounded annually, to grow to $25,000.

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

1. $70

2. $106.42

Explanation:

(1) Variable manufacturing cost per unit:

= Direct labor + Direct material + Variable overhead

= $10 + $34 + $26

= $70

(2) Full cost per unit:

= Direct labor + Direct material + Variable overhead + Variable selling cost + (Fixed ÷ 1,200)

= $10 + $34 + $26 + $5 + [(19,500 + 18,200) ÷ 1,200)]

= $75 + $31.42

= $106.42
