Answer:

The answers are: 1)prices, 4) employment levels  and 5) gross domestic product (GDP)

Explanation:

The main economic indicator economists use to determine the state of the economy is the gross domestic product. The gross domestic product (GDP) includes the value of all the final and legal products and services produced in the country during the year. The increase of the general level of prices is called inflation.    Employment indicators, especially the unemployment rate are very accurate thermometers of the economy. When an economy is hot (low unemployment rate), it means it is growing.

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

$5625.60

number of units produced =50 units

direct labour hours 100

direct materials $ 680

Direct labor cost $ 7,000

The unit product cost for Job P951 is;

Direct materials = $ 680

Direct labor cost $ 7,000

variable manufacturing overheads $ 6.00*100=600

total fixed manufacturing overheads= $ 273,000

total costs=$(680+7000+600+273000)=$281,280

unit product cost=$28,1280/50

=$5625.60

Preissle Company, wants to sell some 20-year, annual interest, $1,000 par value bonds. Its stock sells for $42 per share, and ea
NikAS [45]

Answer:

coupon interest rate that the company must set on the bonds in order to sell the bonds-with-warrants at par is 8.25%.

Explanation:

warrant per share = 2*75 = $150

price of the bond = 1000 - 150 - (1000/(1.05^40))

                             = $707.9543177

coupon*(1 -(1/(1.05^40)))/0.05 = 707.9543177

coupon*17.15908635 = 707.9543177

coupon = 41.25827583

coupon rate = 8.25%

Therefore, coupon interest rate that the company must set on the bonds in order to sell the bonds-with-warrants at par is 8.25%.

<em>Update the Cash Book (Bank Column) Balance</em>

<u>Cash Book (Bank Column)</u>

Debit :

Balance as at August 31                     $1,620

Rent collection                                      $375

Total                                                    $1,995

Credit :

Service charge                                         $9

Dishonored Checks                              $137

Printing Charge                                      $20

Error : Understatement                        $252

Balance as per updated CB              $1,577

Total                                                    $1,995

Step 2

<em>Prepare a Bank Reconciliation Statement</em>

<u>Bank Reconciliation Statement as at August 31</u>

Balance at Bank as per updated Cash Book       $1,577

Add Unpresented Checks                                       $756

Less Lodgements not yet credited                     ($1,695)

Balance as per Bank Statement                             $638

Conclusion :

Now that we have reconciled the Updated Cash Balance of $1,577 to the Bank Statement we can safely say Donney actually has $1,577 cash at August 31, 2014.

Owner Shan Mu is considering franchising her Noodles by Mu restaurant concept. She believes people will pay $ 10.00 for a large
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

She believes people will pay $ 10.00 for a large bowl of noodles. Variable costs are $ 5.00 per bowl. Mu estimates monthly fixed costs for a franchise at $9,000

First, we need to calculate the break-even point in dollars:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 9,000/ [(10 - 5)/10]= $18,000

<u>To determine whether it is convenient to the franchisees, we need to calculate the margin of safety in dollars and, compare it to a break-even point in dollars with the desired income:</u>

<u />

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired income)/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= (9,000 + 25,500) / 0.5= $69,000

Margin of safety=(current sales level - break-even point)

Margin of safety= 96,500 - 69,000= $27,500

It is a good business opportunity for franchisees.

Alexxandr [17]
<h2><u>Disclamer:</u></h2>

As it ask to run simulations the values calculates will difer even if you follow the same step as I did.

Answer:

Mean Profit:  $ 4,295  

Probability of loss:  29.80%

As the product has a mean profit it will on average generate gains

but:  

as the standard deviation of the simulation was $ 7,778.40

<u>we should not invest on the product as it is to variable</u>

<u>Explanation</u>:

We are going to use the =RAND() function of excel

which, generates a random number between 0 and 1

This will be done 1,000 times 500 for the variable cost

and 500 for the demand.

Then we copy and paste this numbers to get them fixed.

Then, we convert them into actual cost and demand in units considering their distribution

using excel dist.norm.inv

Now, with this values we solve for profit on each one.

<u></u>

FOr the complexity I attached the excel file as the plataform interface cannot handle large tables.
