Answer:
The increase in operating profit is $1,829.00.
Explanation:
The rise or fall in the operating income:
= Purchase unit × ( offer price- direct material- direct labor- variable overhead)
The rise or fall in the operating income: = 1550× (2 - 0.26 - 0.4 - 0.16)
The rise or fall in the operating income: = $1829
Therefore the profit will increase by $1829
Here all the fixed cost is not considered because it is a sunk cost and variable and administrative expenses are also not considered because these costs are not going to be incurred for offer.
Answer:
Equity Beta = 1.1413
Explanation:
The formula to find the asset beta is
Asset Beta = Equity Beta/(1+(1-tax rate)(Debt/Equity))
We will put the values given in the question in this formula
Asset Beta = 0.8
Tax rate = 0.36
Debt = 0.40
Equity = 0.60
0.8=Equity Beta/(1+(0.64)(0.40/0.60)
0.8=Equity Beta/1+0.4266
0.8=Equity Beta/1.4266
1.4266*0.8= Equity Beta
Equity Beta = 1.1413
Answer:
$9,000
Explanation:
Total variable cost of manufacturing the components are as follows;
Direct materials $21,000
Direct labor 6,000
Variable overhead 3,000
————
Total $30,000
If we purchase the cost is $39,000 and the company is indifferent if they will manufacture or purchase. Therefore;
$39,000 - 30,000 = $9,000 (unavoidable fixed cost)
Answer:
During each phase of the economic cycle of Recession and Expansion, the following economic variables fluctuate, accordingly:
I. Output: During Recession, production output reduces. But, during expansion, product output rises with rising income, employment, and even stable inflation.
II. Employment: During phases of economic Expansion, employment rises, while it contracts during the phases of Recession.
III. Inflation: Due to rising income and output during economic expansionary periods, inflation rate also rises. It reduces when the economy enters a recession.
Explanation:
Business or Economic Cycle describes the recurrent, but not periodic, sequence of changes in the aggregate economic activities of a nation. It usually cascades between the spectrum of expansion and recession. This means that there is an alternation of the phases of economic cycle between expansion and contraction (recession) when the aggregate economic activities may rise or decline due to the equal movement of economic variables like the GDP output, employment, income, and sales.
