Answer:

A.2010: .12 U.S. dollars; 2012: .15 U.S. dollars

Explanation:

Given that

In 2010

$1 bought 8.24 yuan

In 2012

$1 bought 6.64 yuan

Therefore

In 2010

1 Chinese yuan will buy (1 dollar × 1 Chinese yuan) ÷ 8.24 chinese yuan

= 1 ÷ 8.24

= 0.12 dollars

Also,

In 2012

1 Chinese yuan will buy (1 dollar × 1 Chinese yuan) ÷ 6.64 chinese yuan

= 1 ÷ 6.64

= 0.15 dollars

Note, conversion rates shows how much of one currency can be used to buy 1 of another currency. In this case, the comparison is between Chinese yuan and US dollars. It showed how how much Chinese yuan could be used in purchasing US dollar and vice versa.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Fabricating Department = $136470=   53000 +total 49100 of $1.7 per direct labor hours

Assembling Department = $$ 90,410= 43000 +total 43100  of $ 1.10 per direct labor hours

Explanation:            

<em>When a fixed line intersects a vertical axis at the point of total budgeted cost line represents total cost of the activity . From this we can calculate the following.</em>

                                                          Fabricating            Assembling

Total Cost for 46100 DLH            $131,370                    $93,710

Fixed Costs                                     (53000)                     (43,000)

Variable Costs                               78370                        50,710

Variable Cost Per hour                78370 / 46100          50,710  / 46100

                                                      = $ 1.7                        = $1.10

                                                    Fabricating            Assembling

Total DLH                                        49100                   43100

Variable Cost Per hour                  $ 1.7                          $1.10

Variable Costs                                $ 83470                 $ 47410

Fixed Costs                                     53000                     43,000

Total Budgeted Cost                      136470                    $ 90,410

​Kentucky, Inc. purchases and sells widgets. The following information summarizes the​company's operating activities for the​yea
igomit [66]

Answer:

$16.9 per widget

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning inventory = $2,500

Purchases  = $156,000

Ending inventory = $38,200

Sales Revenue = $783,000

Selling and Administrative Expenses = $5,400

Total cost of the 7,100 widgets:

= Beginning inventory + Purchases - Ending inventory

= $2,500 + $156,000 - $38,200

= $120,300

Therefore,

Cost of one widget = Total cost of the 7,100 widgets ÷ Number of widgets

                                = $120,300 ÷ 7,100

                                = $16.9 per widget

The beta of Stock A is –0.4 (indicating that its returns rise when returns on most other stocks fall). If the risk-free rate is
Marianna [84]

Answer:

=2.98%

Explanation:

Use CAPM to find the required return of the stock;

CAPM: r = risk free + beta(market return - risk free)

risk free = 4.5% or 0.045 as a decimal

beta = -0.4

market return = 8.3% or 0.083 as a decimal

Next, plug in the numbers into the CAPM formula;

r = 0.045 -0.4(0.083 - 0.045)

r = 0.045 -0.0152

r = 0.0298 or 2.98%

Therefore the required return is 2.98%

Calculation for cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for September

First step is to find the Equivalent units of production

To complete beginning work-in-process:

Conversion 12,000

[15,000 units × (100%-20% )]

Units started and completed 65,000

(89,000-24,000)

Ending work-in-process

Conversion 21,600

(24,000 units × 90%)

Equivalent units of production 98,600

Second step is to calculate the Cost per equivalent unit using this formula

Cost per equivalent unit =Cost added during the period ÷Equivalent units of production

Let plug in the formula

Cost per equivalent unit = $526,524÷98,600

Cost per equivalent unit = $5.34

Therefore The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for September is closest to $ 5.34
