Answer:

If costs and percentage completion of these units in beginning inventory were:

Cost Percent Complete

Materials costs $7,900 60%

Conversion costs $6,900 30%

A total of 8,100 units were started and 7,600 units were transferred to the second processing department during the month. The following costs were incurred in the first processing department during the month:

Materials costs $137,900

Conversion costs $323,900

The ending inventory was 80% complete with respect to materials and 75% complete with respect to conversion costs.

Note: Your answers may differ from those offered below due to rounding error. In all cases, select the answer that is the closest to the answer you computed. To reduce rounding error, carry out all computations to at least three decimal places.

The cost per equivalent unit for materials for the month in the first processing department is closest to $17.03

Explanation:

Weighted-average method is used to make an inventory valuation, taking average values ​​for both the merchandise in stock and for the costs of merchandise sold.

But in this case, since you have unfinished units, you must take the equivalent to calculate the unit cost.

Materials:

Units completed: 7,600

Units in process: 1,200 * 80% = 960

Equivalent production units: 7,600 +, 960 = 8560

Cost at start: 7,900

Added costs in the period: 137,900

Total cost: 7900 + 137,900 = 145,800

So: 145,800 / 8,560 = 17.03 is the equivalent unit cost per product

Chamberlain Co. wants to issue new 17-year bonds for some much-needed expansion projects. The company currently has 12.2 percent
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The company should set the coupon rate on its new bonds at current yield to maturity of 4.81% if it wants them to sell at par.

Explanation:

There is a need to first calculate the yield to maturity (YTM) using the following RATE function in Excel:

YTM = RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv) * Number of semiannuals in a year =  RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)*2 .............(1)

Where;

YTM = yield to maturity = ?

nper = number of periods = number of years to maturity * number of semiannuals in a year = 17 * 2 = 14

pmt = semiannual coupon payment = face value * (annual coupon rate / number of semiannuals in a year) = 1000 * (12.2% / 2) = 61

pv = present value = current bond price = 1434.96

fv = face value of the bond = 1000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

YTM = RATE(14,61,-1434.96,1000)*2

Inputting =RATE(14,61,-1434.96,1000)*2 into excel (Note: as done in the attached excel file), the YTM is obtained as 4.81%.

Therefore, the company should set the coupon rate on its new bonds at current yield to maturity of 4.81% if it wants them to sell at par.

The classical dichotomy is the separation of real and nominal variables. The following questions test your understanding of this
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

In 2012, she earned $27.00 per hour, the price of a paperback novel was $9.00, and the price of a mandarin was $3.00. Which of the following give the nominal value of a variable? Check all that apply.

  • <u>The price of a mandarin is $3.00 in 2012.</u>

Nominal values are expressed in terms of current money. real variables are represented in terms of other goods or services.

Which of the following give the real value of a variable? Check all that apply.

  • <u>The price of a paperback novel is 3 mandarins in 2012.</u>

Nominal values are expressed in terms of current money. real variables are represented in terms of other goods or services.

Suppose that the Fed sharply increases the money supply between 2012 and 2017. In 2017, Eleanor's wage has risen to $54.00 per hour. The price of a paperback novel is $18.00 and the price of a mandarin is $6.00. In 2017, the relative price of a paperback novel is <u>still 3 mandarins</u>.  

Between 2012 and 2017, the nominal value of Eleanor's wage <u>doubled</u>, and the real value of her wage <u>remained constant</u>.

Monetary neutrality is the proposition that a change in the money supply <u>affects</u> nominal variables and <u>does not affect</u> real variables.
