Answer:

Was higher.

Explanation:

We have to use a little bit of logci to answer this question, we just have to keep in mind that Aggregate expenditure is the cost of all of the products and services offered in a nation, so ig the business inventories, which are basically the inventories that the stores have, if this go down it means that previously produced goods and services are being sold, this increases the aggregate expenditure, and Gross domestic product is semi-stable, so aggreagate expenditure will be higher than GDP.

Anika [276]

Answer:

Negative linear

Explanation:

Negative linear is when two variables move in the opposite direction.  Movement by one variable causes the other to move in the opposite direction. Negative linear is similar to an indirect relationship between the variable.  For Bungerjoy, the variables are price and sales of hamburgers.

An observation has been made that if the price of hamburgers decreases, the sales increase. Changes in the price of the hamburgers will result in sales moving in the opposite direction.  Positive linear correction is when two variables move in the same direction.

Aspen Company estimates its manufacturing overhead to be $515,000 and its direct labor costs to be $515,000 for year 2. Aspen wo
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

COGS    3807 debit

FG          7896 debit

WIP         2397 debit

  Factory Overhead  14,100 credit

--to record the underapplication of overhead--

Explanation:

overhead rate:

\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate

$515,000 overhead /  515,000 labor cost = $1

each labor cost generates a dollar of overhead.

221,400 x 1 =   221,400 overhead in COGS

459,200 x 1 = 459,200 overhead in Finished Goods

139,400 x 1 =   139,400 overhead in WIP inventory

Total applied  820,000

Actual            805,900

Underapplied    14,100

Now we weight each concept and determiante the portion underapplocated in each concept

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option D: Both the foreseeable doctrine and the restatement doctrine.

Explanation:

On the one hand, the <em>foreseeable doctrine</em> dictates that there is a limit in the liability of party for those acts that he has done and that carry a risk of foreseeable harm. Therefore that this point of view establishes that a reasonable person would be able to understand and so to know when a certain action would bring certain damages to another party.

On the oher hand, the <em>restatement doctrine</em> establishes that there are a set of treatises on legal subjects that primarily are looking for to inform judges and lawyers about general principles of common law. And therefore that those treatises will help both the judge and the lawyers at the time of the trial when the person has to go to court.

algol [13]

Answer:

824.28

Explanation:

Market price of a bond is the total sum of discounted coupon cashflow and par value at maturity. This is a 4-year bond with semi-annual payment so there will be 8 coupon payment in total. Let formulate the bond price as below:

Bond price = [(Coupon rate/2) x Par]/(1 + Required return/2) + [(Coupon rate/2) x Par]/(1 + Required return/2)^2 + ... + [(Coupon rate/2) x Par + Par]/(1 + Required return/2)^8

Putting all the number together, we have

Bond price = [(4.5%) x 1000]/(1 + 7.5%) + [(4.5%) x 1000]/(1 + 7.5%)^2 + ... + [(4.5%) x 1000 + 1000]/(1 + 7.5%)^8

                  = 824.28

A product sells for $250 per unit, and its variable costs per unit are $181. The fixed costs are $430,000. If the firm wants to
brilliants [131]

Answer:

$6600

Explanation:

Given: Selling price= $250 per unit

          Variable cost= $181 per unit.

           Fixed cost= $430000.

           Expected Profit= $25400.

Let´s assume the number of units sold be "x".

Revenue (R) = 250\times x= \$250x

Cost of product (C)= \$ 181\times x+ \$ 430000

∴ Cost of product (C)= \$ 181x+ \$ 430000

Now, finding the number of unit sold.

Forming an equation for profit.

We know, Profit= Revenue-cost

⇒  \$ 25400= 250x- (181x+430000)

Opening parenthesis.

⇒ 25400= 250x- 181x- 430000

⇒ 25400= 69x- 430000

Adding both side by 430000

⇒ 455400= 69x

Dividing both side by 69

⇒ x= \frac{455400}{69}

∴ x= 6600 units

Hence, total number of units sold to earn $25400 is 6600 units.
