Eduardwww [97]

Answer: The expected loss is $2.3

Explanation:

Total number of tickets to be sold = 100 tickets

one $450 prize, the expected gain = 450 x (1/100) = $4.5

two $110 prizes, the expected gain = 110 x (2/100) = $2.2

four $25 prizes. the expected gain = 25 x (4/100) = $1

Expected gain (loss) = Total expected gain - Cost of the ticket

= (4.5 + 2.2 + 1 ) - 10

= (2.3)

The expected loss is $2.3

andrezito [222]

Answer:

The rate of return expected on this project by Cold Goose Metal Works Inc. is 15.20%

Explanation:

Since flotation cost is 4% that implies that $500,000 is actually 96% (100%-4%) of the cash proceeds from the capital funding,hence funds raised is computed thus:

funds raised=$500,000/0.96=$520,833.33

Annual return on investment=cash inflow-initial cash outflow

cash inflow is $600,000

cash outflow is $520,833.33

annual return on investment=$600,000-$520,833.33=$79166.67

rate of return on project=annual return on investment/initial investment

=$79,166.67 /$520,833.33*100=15.20%

The rate of return that Cold Goose Metal Works Inc is 15.20%

Answer:

$5,400= indirect material

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard= $0.75 per unit of output.

Indirect material spending variance= $600 favorable

8,000 units of output were produced last month.

To determine the indirect material costs incurred, we need to use the following formula:

Indirect material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

600= (0.75 - actual price)*8,000

600= 6,000 - actual price

5,400= actual price (in total)

To prove:

Indirect material price variance= (0.75*8,000 - 5,400)

Indirect material price variance= $600 favorable
