Business
1 answer:
ZanzabumX [31]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer is: B) The median wage in Texas is much higher than the national average. THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE.

Explanation:

If you take the facts from the Census ACS 1 year survey, the median household income in Texas is $59,206 (2017 data) and a median hourly wage of $17,06 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics).

If you compare those numbers with the national average, the US median household income is $60,336 (the national average is $1,130 higher than the Texas median household income). Historically the Texas median household income has been lower than the national average.

If we consider the median hourly wage in Texas of $17,06 (2016 data) and we compare to the national hourly wage of $17,81 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics) we can clearly see it´s also lower. The top ten states with the highest median hourly wage are: Alaska, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Washington, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, California, Minnesota, Hawaii, with hourly wages ranging from $22.68 to $19.24

2. Lereve Company has recorded the following information about the results of its operations for the fourth quarter: Sales reven
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Lereve Company

Segmented Income Statement for the fourth quarter:

                                   Total Company  Western Division  Eastern Division  

Sales revenues           $200,000              $80,000              $120,000

Variable cost of sales     60,000                 30,000                  30,000

Contribution                $140,000               $50,000               $90,000

Fixed costs:

Common                     $100,000               $25,000               $75,000

Traceable                       50,000                  20,000                 30,000    

Net Income (Loss)       ($10,000)                 $5,000              ($15,000)

The results show that the Eastern Division made a net loss of $15,000 and the Western Division raked in a net income of $5,000, which resulted in the company-wide net loss of $10,000.  This loss could be traced to the allocated common fixed costs of the division, because its contribution to fixed costs was substantial and better than the Western Division's.

Explanation:

When the results of the operations of a divisional company like Lereve Company are prepared in segmental form, the performance pictures become clearer.  Management is enabled to focus on the segments or the factors that are generating the loss to the company.  Perhaps, as in this case, the problem may not be with the division, but the allocation of fixed costs to the divisions.  It can still be traced to the company as a whole, since it is generating much more fixed costs than it could afford from its revenue.

Fuente, Inc., has identified an investment project with the following cash flows. Year Cash Flow 1 $ 950 2 1,180 3 1,400 4 2,140
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

$6,225.08

Explanation:

The computation of the future value of these cash flows in year 4 is shown below:

= Year 1 cash flow × (1 + interest rate)^year + Year 2 cash flow × (1 + interest rate)^year + Year 3 cash flow × (1 + interest rate)^year + Year 4 cash flow × (1 + interest rate)^year

= $950 × 1.08^3 + $1,180 × 1.08^2 + $1,400 × 1.08^1 + $2,140

= $950 × 1.259712  +  $1,180 × 1.1664  + $1,400 × 1.08 + $2,140

= $1,196.7264  + $1,376.352  + $1,512  + $2,140

= $6,225.08
