Answer:
Should purchase or consume more Alpha than Beta.
Explanation:
Marginal utility per dollar spent can be calculated as,
Alpha = 30/5 = 6/$ spent
Beta = 40/10 = 4/$ spent
Therefore maximizing utility in a given budget constraint would be achieved by buying or consuming more of Alpha.
Answer:
=$854,000
Explanation:
The cost of goods sold is the expense incurred by a manufacturing firm when making goods to be sold to customers. It is calculated using the formula.
Cost of goods sold = Beginning Stock plus purchases/ cost of goods manufactured minus ending stock
Marigold Corp:
Beginning stock: $162,000
Ending stock: $174,000
cost of goods manufactured, $866000;
cost of goods sold =
$162,000 + 866,000 -$174,000
=$854,000
Answer:
option (A) 10 percent
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Dividend yield = 3 percent
Expected growth rate = 7 percent
Therefore,
The ABC's required return will be
= Dividend yield + Expected growth rate
or
The ABC's required return = 3% + 7%
or
The ABC's required return = 10%
Hence,
The ABC's required return is option (A) 10 percent
Answer: Total cost (23500 hours predicted ) = $ 484625
Explanation:
The question is incomplete the high and low methods requires us to use high and low level of activity together with the corresponding total costs at each level to determine the variable cost per unit. we will provide assumed total costs and nursing hours in order to show how high and low method is used to predict total costs for the next period.
Assume the following were total costs and corresponding nursing hours for the previous 3 months
Total cost Hours
$560000 30000 hours
$400000 220000 hours
$225000 10000 hours
calculating Variable cost using high and low method
Variable cost per unit = (high cost - low cost)/high hour - low hours)
Variable Cost Per unit = (840000 - 225000)/ (30000 - 10000) = 16.75
Variable cost per unit = $ 16.75
Fixed costs = 560000 - (28000 x 16.75) = 560000 - 469000
Fixed costs = $91000
Total cost (23500 hours predicted ) =Total Fixed cost + Total Variable costs
Total cost (23500 hours predicted ) = $91000 + (23500 x $16.75)
Total cost (23500 hours predicted ) == $91000 + $393625
Total cost (23500 hours predicted ) = $ 484625
The basis for this argument is that consumption tax takes a larger percentage of income from low income earners than from high income earners. This is because consumption tax is uniformly applied to all people irrespective of their situation.<span />
