Suppose seafood price and quantity data for the years 2000 and 2009 follow. Use 2000 as the base period. Seafood 2000 Qty. (lb)
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

a) Price Relative for Halibut is 115.9 (1 d.p)

Price Relative for Lobster is 85.4 (1 d.p)

Price Relative for Tuna is 105.4 (1 d.p)

b) The Weighted Aggregate Price Index for the seafood catch is 98.4.

Explanation:

a) The Price Relative for a good refers to it's current price divided by it's base price times 100. It therefore measures a change in price across different periods.

Writing the formula as stated is,

Price Relative = Current Price / Base Price * 100

Price Relative for Halibut = 2.33/2.01 * 100

= 115.9 (1 d.p)

Price Relative for Lobster = 3.09/3.62 * 100

= 85.4 (1 d.p)

Price Relative for Tuna = 1.97/1.87 * 100

= 105.35

= 105.4 (1 d.p)

b) The Weighted Aggregate Price Index enables us to see how prices in a particular basket has changed over a period of time. It is calculated as follows,

Weighted Price Index = (Sum of Weighted Current Price ) / ( Sum of weighted Base Price) * 100

Sum of Weighted Current Price = (75,190 * 2.33) + (83,080 * 3.09) + ( 50,779 * 1.97)

= 538,124.53

Sum of Weighted Base Price = (75,190 * 2.01) + (83,080 * 3.62) + ( 50,779 * 1.87)

= 546,838.23

Weighted Price Index = (538,124.53 / 546,838.23) *100

= 98.4

The Weighted Aggregate Price Index for the seafood catch is 98.4.

A company developed the following per-unit standards for its product: 2 gallons of direct materials at $8 per gallon. Last month
Radda [10]

Answer:

$880 favorable

Explanation:

The computation of direct materials price variance for last month is shown below:-

Direct material price variance = Actual quantity × (Standard price - Actual price)

= 2,200 × ($8 - ($16,720 ÷ 2,200)

= 2,200 × ($8 - 7.6)

= 2,200 × $0.4

= $880 Favorable

Therefore for computing the direct materials price variance for last month we simply applied the above formula.

Stuart Modems has excess production capacity and is considering the possibility of making and selling paging equipment. The foll
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Stuart Modems

a. The per-unit cost of making and selling 2,600 pagers is:

= $64.55

b. Assuming that Stuart could sell the pagers at a price of $50 each, it should still go with the plan to make and sell the pagers.  The variable cost for producing a pager is $38.60.  Each pager will make a unit contribution margin of $11.40, which will help to offset the facility-level costs since they will not be influenced by the production of the pagers.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Production and sales volume = 2,600 pages

Unit-level manufacturing costs = $36

Total manufacturing costs = $93,600 ($36 * 2,600)

Sales commissions = $6,760 ($2.60 * 2,600)

Facility-level costs:

Depreciation on manufacturing equipment       ($76,000)

Rent on the manufacturing facility                     ($66,000)

Depreciation on the administrative equipment ($16,800)

Other fixed administrative expenses                ($79,950)

Total facility-level costs = $238,750

Overhead rate = $25.95 ($238,750/9,200)

Cost of making and selling 2,600 pagers:

Total manufacturing costs =           $93,600

Overhead costs ($25.95 * 2,600)    67,470

Sales commissions =                           6,760

Total cost of making and selling  $167,830

Unit cost = $64.55 ($167,830/2,600)

Variable cost of making and selling a unit of pager:

Unit-level manufacturing costs = $36.00

Sales commissions =                      $2.60

Total variable costs =                   $38.60

Revenue per unit =                      $50.00

Contribution per unit =                  $11.40

Liberty Insurance Company processes applications forms. The average output in a week is 600 claims. Currently the staff includes
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Output = 600 claims

Input = (18*6*40) + 1200 = $5520

Cost per application = $9.2 is the cost per claim

Productivity ratio = 600 / 5520 = 0.1086

Explanation:

The productivity of the application process = total weekly cost incurred / weekly application output

Here we have average output of 600 application per week

And cost we have,

Total cost = weekly staff cost + weekly cost on computer technology

Weekly staff cost = 40 hours * 6 staff * $18 per hour rate = $ 4,320

Weekly cost on computer technology = $ 1200

Total cost = $4320 + $ 1200 = $5,520

Now productivity = $ 5,520 / 600 application = $ 9.2

Or we can say that it takes $ 9.2 to process one application

(b) Here we have average output of 650 application per week

And cost we have,

Total cost = weekly staff cost + weekly cost on computer technology

Weekly staff cost = 40 hours * 5 staff * $18 per hour rate = $ 3,600 ( assumed that one staff is reduced as one application evaluator is retiring and not replaced)

weekly cost on computer technology = $ 1800

Total cost = $3,600 + $ 1800 = $5,400

Now productivity = $ 5,400 / 650 application = $ 8.31

Or we can say that it takes $ 8.31 to process one application

Percentage change in productivity ={ ($8.31 – $ 9.2 )/ $ 8.31 } * 100 = - 10.71%

Means that the cost has reduced by 10.71 % by the new process

Suppose the U.S. GDP growth rate is faster relative to other​ countries' GDP growth rates. U.S. imports will therefore increase
Leni [432]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

If there is an any change in the GDP of a particular nation then as a result this will shift the demand curve. Increase in GDP or an increase in the income level of the people will shift the demand curve for goods rightwards. With the higher level of income, the consumer's demand for goods increases.

Any change in the price level of the goods will affect the quantity demanded for that goods and there is a movement along a demand curve.
