Answer: c. interest rate falls; investment rises
Explanation:
The Fed buying treasury securities from banks is an expansionary policy when the government wants to increase the money in circulation and increase economic growth.
When the Fed buys Treasury securities from banks, this will lead to availability of funds as prices will be pushed higher and there will be a reduction in the interest rate.
Since there is reduction in interest rate, investment will increase as investors will borrow from banks.
Answer:
The correct answer to the following question is option C) compare the daily cash receipts totals with the bank deposits.
Explanation:
When cash receipts are received by a company, it is often deposited in bank on the bank the same day they are received or they should be deposited the following business day. If a auditor or a manger or owner wants to make sure that the cash is promptly deposited everyday, then one way in which he or she can make sure that this is happening promptly is by comparing the daily cash deposits with the bank deposits or bank statements, through this procedures a person comparing them would come to know of any discrepancy in cash deposit, if it exist.
Each unit sells: $80
Each unit costs to make: $32
Fixed costs: 72,000
Goal: 2,000 units sold
If they meet their goal, let's see how that would go:
(2,000 * 80) - (2,000 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
160,000 - 64,000 - 72,000 = 24,000
24,000 is the profit they would make for hitting their goal.
Question 1:
What is the break-even point? The break-even means they make no money, but they also lose no money. So that final number (24,000) would be 0 instead. How many units would they have to make to hit zero?
(x * 80) - (x * 32) - 72,000 = 0.
80x - 32x = 72,000
48x = 72,000
x = 1500 units
We can verify by using our first formula we've already determined, using this new value for units.
(1,500* 80) - (1,500 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
120,000 - 48,000 - 72,000 = 0? True!
Question 2: If they increase their expenses by 16,000, what is their new break even point?
(x * 80) - (x * 32) - 72,000 - 16000 = 0.
80x - 32x - 88000 = 0
48x = 88000
x = 1833
Question 3: 10% reduction in selling price and 10% increase in sales. (Assuming based off the original formula the problem provided.)
Original: (2,000 * 80) - (2,000 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
10% Reduction in price: 8
80-8 = 72
10% increase in sales: 200
2000 + 200 = 2200
Plugin to our formula:
(2200 * 72) - (2200 * 32) - 72,000 = ?
158400 - 70400 - 72,000 = 16,000
Since this number is positive, this is income. (D)
Answer:
total equivalent units for materials = 6,310
Explanation:
700 units in beginning work in process:
- materials: 70% complete, $8,700, completed 490 equivalent units, not completed 210 units
- conversion: 10% complete, $3,700
units started in to production 6,400
units transferred out 5,600
ending work in process 1,500
- materials: 80% complete, completed 1,200 equivalent units for materials
- conversion: 25% complete
materials added $92,200
conversion costs added $269,600
equivalent units for materials:
- beginning WIP equivalent units to be completed = 210
- units started and completed = 5,600 - 700 = 4,900
- ending WIP = 1,200 equivalent units
- total equivalent units for materials = 6,310
