Answer:
Dallas Boot Corporation
Assuming that there would be no commission on this potential sale, the lowest price the firm can bid is some price greater than:_________
= $20.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Pairs of military combat boots on the bid = 1,000
Direct material $8
Direct labor 6
Variable overhead 3
Variable selling cost (commission) 3
Fixed overhead (allocated) 2
Fixed selling and administrative cost 1
Total cost of production and sales $23
Less commission 3
Total cost per boot $20
b) The bidding price less sales commission will be a price that is greater than $20 per boot. The extra amount per boot will cover the profit expected from the transaction.
Answer:
the store rent that should be allocated in department 3 is $100000
Explanation:
if we assume that we charge the rent per square feet occupied, then we can say
department rent = charge per square feet* number of square feets
r = k*sf
also if
total rent = rent department 1 + rent department 2 + rent department 3
r total = r1 + r2 + r3 = k*sf1 + k*sf2 + k*sf3 = k*( sf1 + sf2 + sf3)
k= r total / ( sf1 + sf2 + sf3)
replacing values
k = $200000/(15000 sq.ft + 10000 sq.ft +25000 sq.ft ) = $ 4 per sq.ft
thus for department 3
r3 = k* sf3= $ 4 per sq.ft * 25000 sq.ft = $100000
rent department 3 = $100000
Answer:
a. Overstates Inflation.
In the case of Mary and Bob, the CPI would have already increased but in this case the price of the minivan increased as well. This will overstate inflation because it will not measure the general rise in price alone (inflation), it will also measure the rise in price as a result of the new minivan having better features.
b. Understated Inflation
Donna's case represents an understated inflation because the quantity shrank yet the price stayed the same. This means that the price is now buying less quantity than it used to which is inflation because more dollars are now required to buy the previous amount. This was not however recorded as there was no change in price.
c. Overstates Inflation
In the case of Zach, the inflation will be overstated because Zach is no longer buying bagels and is now buying muffins so continuing to use bagels as a representative good in the basket of goods used to calculate CPI would be overstating it.
d. Accurate representation of Inflation
In Chris's case, the increase in the price of the same shoe over the years has been because of a general rise in prices and not because it is a different model. It is the same shoe and its price is rising generally so this is an accurate depiction of inflation.
Answer:
a. Terrell's Optimal Capital Structure is 40:60. It means to obtain optimal capital structure in-order to increase value of firm, Terrell should finance 40% of its Assets through Debt and remaining through Common Equity.

Explanation:
The goal of Management is to increase Shareholders' wealth and not to generate profits because wealth is something that is for long-run whereas Profits are temporary. Management would accept projects having negative NPV if its goal is to maximize Profit.
Maximizing Shareholders' wealth means to increase the Share Price whereas Generating a higher EPS is Profit Maximization Strategy. So, you should look for that Capital Structure Point where the Company's Stock Price is Highest.
Thanks!
Yeah for sure i guess ...
