Answer:

Short term portfolio investment

Explanation:

A portfolio investment is a passive investment in bonds , stocks and other financial security by an individual, company or corporate organization with the expectation of return on investment i.e the financial security will grow in value over time. it is called a passive investment because it does not entail the active participation of the investor in the management of the investment.

Dell investing in a London bank instead of a New York in the hope of getting a higher value for its money is an example of a Short term portfolio investment because this investment is informed by the current interest rate value which could change any time. therefore Dell will hold that inc=vestment for a short term and not a long term.

A business operated at 100% of capacity during its first month, with the following results: Sales (90 units) $90,000 Production
umka21 [38]

Answer:

d.$18,900

Explanation:

Gross Profit is the net of Sales value and production cost in the period for the units sold. Under absorption costing all the direct and indirect costs incurred in the production of products are included in the total production cost. As the cost is available for 100 units produced we need to calculate the cost of 90 unit and deduct this cost from the sales value to determine the gross profit and then deduct the operating expenses to calculate the operating income.

Sales (90 units)                                                                  $90,000

Less: Production costs:

Direct materials ( $40,000 x 90/100 )              $36,000

Direct labor ( 20,000 x 90/100 )                       $18,000

Variable factory overhead ( 2,000 x 90/100 ) $1,800

Fixed factory overhead ( 7,000 x 90/100 )      <u>$6,300</u>

Total Production cost                                                       <u>($62,100)</u>

Gross Profit                                                                        $27,900

Less Operating expenses:

Variable operating expenses $8,000

Fixed operating expenses      $1,000

                                                                                          <u>($9,000)</u>

Operating Income                                                             <u>$18,900</u>

Describe the slope of the demand curve? How does the slope reflect the law of demand?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

<u></u>

  • <u>1. The slope is negative</u>
  • <u>2. The demand decreases when the prices increase.</u>

Explanation:

<em>Describe the slope of the demand curve?</em>

<em>The slope of the demand curve</em> is negative.

The demand curve is graphed on a coordinate plane with the price in the horizontal axis (typically the x-axis) and the demand on the vertical axis (y-axis).

Thus, the slope will be the rate of change of the demand over the change on the price.

Mathematically:

           slope=\dfrac{\text{change in demand}}{\text{change in price}}

Since, as you move from left to right, on the x-axis, the prices increase, and the demand (on the y-axis) lowers, the change in demand is negative and the change in the prices is positive, resulting in a negative slope.

This is seen graphycally because the demand curve is decreasing (downward-sloping).

<em>How does the slope reflect the law of demand?</em>

The slope reflects perfectly <em>the law of demand</em> because the law of demand states that, since the resources are scarce, when the prices incrases the quantities demanded decrease.

A process includes 9 tasks and there are 3 workers. Each task can be assigned to only one worker and each worker must be assigne
Katen [24]

Answer:

24.8 per hour

Explanation:

There are 3 workers and hence are three workstations. Consecutive activities are assigned to each workstation such that workload is as uniform as possible

Hence the time in each workstation (WS) is,  

WS1 = 45+55+15 = 115 seconds

WS2 = 25+50+5+30 = 110 seconds

WS3 = 95+50 = 145 seconds

Workstation 3 has the highest processing time and hence is the bottleneck and determines the capacity of the process

Therefore capacity = 1/145 per second = 3600/145 per hour = 24.8 per hour

The initial outlay for the project after depreciation is loss of $26,700.

<h3>What is  depreciation?</h3>

Depreciation in accounting refers to two parts of the same concept: first, the real decline in fair value of an asset, such as the worth of factory equipment each year.

Depreciation is used to match the cost of a productive asset with a useful life of more than a year to the revenues received by employing the asset. The expense of an asset is frequently spread out throughout the years that it is used.

Section 32 of the Income Tax Act of 1961 contains the provision for authorising depreciation. Depreciation is a deduction allowed by the Income Tax Act for the reduction in the real worth of a physical or intangible asset used by a taxpayer.

Gennadij [26K]
