Correct answer:  C. buying and selling

The securities that are being bought and sold are government securities.  Government securities are bonds or other financial certificates sold by the government.  As <em>Investopedia </em>explains in regard to "open market operations," the purchase of government securities brings money into the banking system, stimulating growth by stimulating the money supply.  The selling of government securities does the opposite, contracting the economy.   The Federal Reserve uses  open market operations to adjust and monitor the federal funds rate -- in other words, the interest rate at which banks borrow from each other.

kifflom [539]

Answer:

$71,000

Explanation:

The computation of operating income is shown below:-

Total costs if company bought = Cost of production × Outside supplier per unit) + (Fixed cost × Remaining percentage)

= (43,000 × $3.80) + ($68,000 × (100% - 30%))

= (43,000 × $3.80) + ($68,000 × 70%)

= $163,400 + $47,600

= $211,000

Loss in Income if part is bought = Total costs if company bought - Total costs originally

= $211,000 - $140,000

= $71,000

Therefore, Making profit will be more by $71,000 and for computing the Loss in Income if part is bought we simply applied the above formula.

Plantwide overhead rate for Laval using direct labor hours as a base. is $1.60 per Direct Labor Hour

Part 2.

Total manufacturing cost per unit for the aluminum desk lamp using the plantwide overhead rate is $78.76

Part 3. Compute departmental overhead rates based on machine hours in the fabricating department and direct labor hours in the assembly department.

                                         Fabricating                  Assembly              

Overheads (R)                      390000                         410000      

Department Cost Driver      152000                         290000      

Overhead Rate                         2.57                                 1.41            

Therefore Overhead Rates are :

            Fabricating Department $ 2.57 per Machine Hour  

            Assembly Department $1.41 per Labor Hour          

Part 4. Use departmental overhead rates from requirement 3 to determine the total manufacturing cost per unit for the aluminum desk lamps.

Direct materials ($270000/21000)                                         12.86

Direct labor:

       Fabricating department(6500/21000×$29)                   8.98

       Assembly department(15200/21000×$26)                   18.82

Overheads:

       Fabricating department(152000/21000×$2.57)           18.60

       Assembly department (290000/21000×$1.41)             19.47

Total manufacturing cost per unit                                         78.73

Explanation:

Part 1.  Plantwide overhead rate for Laval using direct labor hours as a base.

Overhead Rate = Total Overheads/Total Direct Labor Hours

                          = $1.60 per Direct Labor Hour

                                            Fabricating                  Assembly         Total      

Overheads (R)                      390000                         410000       800000

Direct Labor Hrs                  210000                         290000       500000

Overhead Rate                                                                                   1.60

Part 2. Total manufacturing cost per unit for the aluminum desk lamp using the plantwide overhead rate

Direct materials ($270000/21000)                                         12.86

Direct labor:

       Fabricating department(6500/21000×$29)                   8.98

       Assembly department(15200/21000×$26)                   18.82

Overheads:

       Fabricating department(210000/21000×$1.60)            16.00

       Assembly department (290000/21000×$1.60)            22.10

Total manufacturing cost per unit                                         78.76

Part 3. Compute departmental overhead rates based on machine hours in the fabricating department and direct labor hours in the assembly department.

Part 4. Use departmental overhead rates from requirement 3 to determine the total manufacturing cost per unit for the aluminum desk lamps.

If an investment of $35,000 is earning an interest rate of 8.00%, compounded annually, then it will take for this investment to
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Therefore the required time period is 3 years.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of period we are using the following formula of future value

Future value = C_0(1+r)^n

C_0 is cash flow at period 0= $ 35,00

r = rate of interest = 8.00% = 0.08

n= number of periods = ?

Future value = $44,089.92

Substituting the values in the formula

44,089.92= 35,000(1+0.08)^n

\Rightarrow (1+0.08)^n=\frac{44089.92}{35000}

\Rightarrow(1.08)^n = 1.259712

\Rightarrow (1.08)^n=(1.08)^3

\therefore n= 3

Therefore the required time period is 3 years.

County collected for a school district = $1,000,000

County for General Fund =  $5,000,000

For town located in the County = $500,000

Hardin County Agency Fund = County for school + County for a town

= $1,000,000 + $500,000

= $1,500,000
