Answer:

c) The investment is mutually exclusive with another investment under consideration.

Explanation:

The main indicator as to whether or not accept a project or not is the net present value (NPV). Only projects with a positive NPV should be considered. On the other hand, the internal rate of return (IRR) has a couple of issues and is not that reliable because it does not consider the size of the projects, or associated future costs, or even the duration of the projects. The IRR is not a good method to evaluate long term projects.

So when you have to compare mutually exclusive projects, the IRR should not be considered due to the issues previously mentioned.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

c

Money multiplier = 1 / reserve requirement

Money multiplier  when reserve ratio is 10% = 1/10 = 0.1 = 10%

Money multiplier  when reserve ratio is 20% =1/20 = 0.05 = 5%

there is a decrease of money multiplier from 5% to 10% when reserve ratio is increased from 10 percent to 20 percent

Russell and Sons, a CPA firm, established the following standard labor cost data for completing what the firm referred to as a C
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

a. Total labor variance:

= (Actual labor cost - Standard labor cost) * No of returns completed

= [ (34.50 * 3.6) - (30 * 4) ] * 600

= $2,520 Unfavorable

<em>Unfavorable because the budget was exceeded by the actual costs. </em>

b. Labor Price variance:

= (Actual labor cost - Standard labor cost) * Actual hours

= (34.50 - 30) * 600 returns * 3.6 hours per return

= $9,720 Unfavorable

<em>Budget was exceeded so unfavorable. </em>

c. Labor usage variance:

= (Actual labor hours - Standard labor hours) * Standard labor rate

= [ (3.6 hours * 600 returns) - (4 hours * 600) ] * 30

= -$7,200

= $7,200 favorable

<em>Budget was not exceeded so this is a Favorable variance. </em>

The following data pertains to activity and the cost of maintenance for two recent months: Month 1 Month 2 Production Volume 200
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Fixed cost= $100

Explanation:

The high low method considers the level of highest activity and lowest activity, and compares cost at each of these levels.

It is a useful way of calculating variable cost and fixed cost.

The variable cost= (High activity cost - Low activity cost)/ (High activity units- Low activity units)

Variable cost= (1,100-900)/ (2,500-2,000)

Variable cost = 200/500= $0.4

Fixed cost= High activity cost- (variable cost* High activity units)

Fixed cost= 1,100- (0.4* 2,500)

Fixed cost= 1,100- 1,000

Fixed cost= $100
