Economic profit refers to the profit earned by deducting the implicit cost and the explicit cost from the total revenue.
Economic Profit = Total revenue - (Explicit cost + Impllicit Cost)
where Total Revenue = $100,000
Explicit Cost = $2000 + ($25000*10%) = $4500
Implicit Cost = $70000 + $10000 = $80000
Economic Profit = $100,000 - ($4,500 + $80,000)
Economic Profit = $100,000 - $84,500
Economic Profit = $15,500
Hence, Sid's Economic Profit is equal to $15,500
Answer:
Total overhead cost variance $
Standard fixed overhead cost ($9 x 45,100 hrs) 405,900
Less: Actual fixed overhead cost <u>411,000 </u>
Total overhead cost variance <u> 5,100 (A)</u>
Explanation:
Total overhead variance is the difference between standard fixed overhead cost and actual fixed overhead cost. Standard fixed overhead cost is overhead rate multiplied by actual direct labour hours. Overhead rate is the total of variable overhead and fixed overhead rate ($8 + $1 = $9).
Answer:
I think it's a income tax
Answer:
Alpha for A is 1.40%; Alpha for B is -0.2%.
Explanation:
First, we use the CAPM to calculate the required returns of the two portfolios A and B given the risks of the two portfolios( beta), the risk-free return rate ( T-bill rate) and the Market return rate (S&P 500) are given.
Required Return for A: Risk-free return rate + Beta for A x ( Market return rate - Risk-free return rate) = 5% + 0.7 x (13% - 5%) = 10.6%;
Required Return for A: Risk-free return rate + Beta for B x ( Market return rate - Risk-free return rate) = 5% + 1.4 x (13% - 5%) = 16.2%;
Second, we compute the alphas for the two portfolios:
Portfolio A: Expected return of A - Required return of A = 12% - 10.6% = 1.4%;
Portfolio B: Expected return of B - Required return of B = 16% - 16.2% = -0.2%.
Answer: The change in revenue for the sale of 1 more doghouse $ 66.67 dollars
Explanation: Differential is a function that can be used to approximate function value with a great degree of accuracy. This is done by the following.
Mathematical definition of derivative: f'(x) = lim f(x+Δx) - f(x)/Δx.
If Δx is very small:
f'(x) . Δx ≅ f(x+Δx) - f(x)
Knowing that Δy ≅ f(x+Δx) - f(x) and the diferential of variable x can be written by dx as the variable y can be dy:
dy = f'(x) dx
which means that the differential dy is approximately equal to the change Δy, if Δx is very small.
For the question, R(x) = y(x) = 14,000ln(0.01x+1)
f'(x) = ![\frac{d[14,000.ln(0.01x+1)]}{dx}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bd%5B14%2C000.ln%280.01x%2B1%29%5D%7D%7Bdx%7D)
Using the chain rule, the derivative will be:
f'(x) = 14,000.
dy = 14,000..dx
dx is the change in x. For the question, the change is 1 (1 more doghouse) and x is 110:
dy = 14,000
dy = 
dy = 66.67
The change in revenue is $66.67 dollars.
