Answer:

A) face cream = $50,000

B) body lotion = $100,000

C) liquid soap = $50,000

Explanation:

product                 quantity           weight factor           final quantity        

face cream              300                      1                             300

body lotion              200                     3                             600

liquid soap              300                      1                              300

total                                                                                    1,200

total joint costs = $200,000

joint cost per weighted pound = $200,000 / 1,200 = $166,67

allocated joint costs:

product               final quantity        cost per unit         total

face cream              300                      $166,67            $50,000

body lotion              600                     $166,67            $100,000

liquid soap               300                     $166,67            $50,000

total                        1,200                                             $200,000

Answer: Face cream = 25/100 * $200000

= $50,000

Body lotion = 50/100 * $200000

= $100,000

Liquid soap = 25/100 * $200,000

= $50,000

Explanation:

Formula used:

Weight factors

Face cream =300

Body lotion = 200 * 3 = 600

Liquid soap = 300

Total weight factor = 1200 pounds

Percentage of total= Weights / Total weight factor *100

Face cream = 300/1200 * 100 = 25%

Body lotion = 600/1200 * 100 = 50%

Liquid soap = 300/1200 *100 = 25%

Allocation of cost= $200,000 × percentage of total

Face cream = 25/100 * $200000

= $50,000

Body lotion = 50/100 * $200000

= $100,000

Liquid soap = 25/100 * $200,000

= $50,000

If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75, and there is no investment accelerator or crowding out, a $115 billion increase i
rodikova [14]

Answer: $460 billion, but the effect would be larger if there were an investment accelerator.

Explanation:

If the MPC = 0.75 and there is no investment accelerator or crowding out, then a $115 billion increase in the government expenditures would result in the shift in the aggregate demand curve right by:

= $115 billion ÷ (1 - 0.75)

= $115 billion ÷ 0.25

= $115 billion × 1/0.25

= $115 billion / 0.25

= $460 billion.

Therefore, there'll be a shift in the aggregate demand curve right by $460 billion, but the effect would be larger if there were an investment accelerator

Cullumber Company provides the following information about its defined benefit pension plan for the year 2017. Service cost $ 90
Llana [10]

Answer:

$102,080

Explanation:

Given that,

Service cost = $90,500

Interest rate = 9 %

Expected return on plan assets = $62,800

Prior service cost amortization = $10,300

Projected benefit obligation at January 1, 2017 = $712,900

Pension expense for the year 2017:

= Service cost + Interest cost - Expected return on plan assets + Prior service cost amortization

= $90,500 + ($712,900 × 9%) - $62,800 +  $10,300

= $90,500 + $64,080 - $62,800 +  $10,300

= $102,080
