Answer:

b). Purchase a portable battery bank made to charge laptops.

Purchase an extra laptop battery.

Explanation:

Purchasing a new laptop is not a rational option since the laptop is still very functional but not near a power outlet. Every laptop battery needs a power outlet to charge so buying a new laptop will still pose the same problem.

Purchasing an extra power cord will not charge the battery, as a power cord requires a power outlet to work.

Change the power setting on her laptop to consume less power seems reasonable but doesn't solve the problem of what to do when the laptop battery dies. Therefore the best options are:

Purchase a portable battery bank made to charge laptops.

Or

Purchase an extra laptop battery.

ABC Residential Investors, LLP, is considering the purchase of a 120-unit apartment complex in Steel City, Pennsylvania. A marke
hoa [83]

Answer:

The estimate value of the subject property is $8,269,200

The other information that would be desirable in reaching a conclusion:

The closeness of the property to central business districts as the closer it is the higher the asking price.

The estimate was solely based on revenue, the applicable costs have been ignored.

The average taken might not be a good indication for the subject property because the property might have unique features

Explanation:

The formula for Gross Rent Multiplier is given  Property Price / Gross Monthly Rental Income.

In determining the estimate value of the subject property ,we calculate the gross rent multiplier of the new property,then multiply it  with the annual rental income.

In ascertaining the GRM of the new property we take the average GRM of the two similar properties in the same area.This is because the new property judging from number of units, lies in-between the other two properties.

GRM for Oaks

GRM=$9000000/($550*140)

GRM =116.88

GRM for Palms

GRM=$6,600,000/($650*90)

GRM =112.82

The average GRM=(116.88+112.82)/2

                               =114.85

Subject property price=114.85*(120*$600)

                                     =$8,269,200

Harvey Automobiles uses a standard part in the manufacture of several of its trucks. The cost of producing 60 comma 000 parts is
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

$69,000

Explanation:

The computation of the operating income would be shown below:

= Buying cost - making cost

where,

Buying cost equals to

= 60,000 × $3

= $180,000

And, the making cost would be

= Variable cost + fixed cost × avoid percentage

= $90,000 + $70,000 × 30%

= $90,000 + $21,000

= $111,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $180,000 - $111,000

= $69,000

Poinsettias = $970,000 * 4% = $38,8000

Fruit Trees = $3,100,000 * 4% = $124,000

w2. Allocation of common expenses using the following assuptions:

a) Use cost of goods sold (COGS) to allocate Common fixed overhead:

Poinsettias = (460,000 / 2,090,000) * $800,000 = $176,077

Fruit Trees = (1,630,000 / 2,090,000) * $800,000 = $623,923

b) Use common selling and administrative expense using Sales:

Poinsettias = (970,000 / 4,070,000) * $450,000 = $176,077

Fruit Trees = (3,100,000 / 4,070,000) * $450,000 = $623,923
