A customer who sold a bond at a loss must wait how long before he can buy back a substantially identical bond and not have the sale classified as a wash sale?
30 days.
Answer:
Increase, Decrease
Explanation:
A decrease in the supply results in many buyers competing for very few goods. If the demand is constant, the quantity supplied and price have an indirect relationship. A decrease in the volume of supplied results in an increase in price. Many buyers will be competing for a few products causing the equilibrium price to increase.
A decrease in supply will cause the quantity available for buyers to buy to decline. Consequently, the volume purchased will be fewer. Equilibrium quantity will, therefore, decrease.
Answer:
Explanation:
a. In a regression equation expressed as y= a + bx, how is the letter b best described?
Here, b is the slope and best described as the estimate of the cost when there's a visit of an additional customer.
b. How is the letter y in the regression equation best described?
The letter y is the observed store cost for that particular month.
c. How is the letter x in the regression equation best described?
The letter x is the observed customer visit for that particular month.
d. Based on the data derived from the regression analysis, what are the estimated costs for 370 customer-visits in a month?
The estimated cost for 370 customer visit will be:
Y = a + bx
where,
a =$1496
b = $2.08
x = 370 customer visit
Y = $1496 + ($2.08 × 370 customer visit)
= $1496 + $769.6
= $2265.6
e. What is the percent of the total variance that can be explained by the regression equation?
The percent of total variance which the regression equation explain will be:
R2 = 0.86814 or 86.814%
Answer:
(a)
Mathematical Equation for break-even
F = QP - QV
Where
F = fixed cost
Q = Break-even quantity
P = Selling price
V = Variable cost
F = Q ( P - V )
Q = F / ( P - V )
Q = $327,030 / ( $630 - $300 )
Q = $327,030 / $330
Q = 991 units
(b)
Contribution Margin = Price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Contribution Margin = $630 - $300 = $330
Break-even Point in Units = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin per unit
Break-even Point in Units = $327,030 / $330 = 991 units
Explanation:
Mathematical equation use the the break-even equation which represent the behavior of each element towards the break-even point.
Contribution per unit method use the contribution of each unit to calculate the break-even point.
Answer:
<em>Product X and Z should be processed further because the additional sales revenue is greater that further processing cost which leads to a profit. </em>
<em>Product Y should not be processed further because doing so would lead to a loss</em>
Explanation:
WP Corporation should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.
Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point (i.e $92,000) are irrelevant to the decision to process further .
X Y Z
Sales value at split of point 23 24 25
Sales value after split off point <u> 27</u> <u> 27 </u> <u>32</u>
Additional sales value 4 3 7
Further processing cost <u>( 2)</u> <u>( 4 ) </u> <u>( 4)</u>
Net income?(loss) 2 (1 ) 3
Product X and Z should be processed further because the additional sales revenue is greater that further processing cost, which leads to a profit.
Product Y should not be processed further because doing so would lead to a loss
