ir llamas. Lucia is pretty good with a pair of shears; she can shear the llamas in 1 hour. Kenji is somewhat slow; it takes him 4 hours to shear the llamas. Lucia earns $120 per hour as a psychiatrist, while Kenji earns $20 per hour as a cobbler.
Keeping in mind that either Lucia or Kenji must take time off from work to shear the llamas, who has the lowest opportunity cost of completing the task?
a. Lucia and Kenji face identical opportunity costs
b. Kenji
c. Lucia

Answer:

B. Kenji has the lowest opportunity cost.

Explanation:

The opportunity cost is those resources that a person gives up when making a choice or making a decision.  If Lucia stopped working for an hour, stop receiving $ 120 . Otherwise, If Kenji stops working four hours, to shear the llamas, he stops receiving $ 80. Then, his opportunity cost is the lowest.

Nataly [62]

1. The break-even points in sales units are computed as follows:

Break-even point (in units) = Direct fixed cost/contribution margin per unit

Regular model = 20,000 units ($1,200,000/$60)

Deluxe model = 3,529 units ($960,000/$272)

2. The Alo Company's Sales revenue to break-even, company-wide, is computed as follows:

<u>Sales Revenue at break-even point:</u>

= Fixed costs/Contribution margin ratio

= $3,660,800/40%

klasskru [66]

Answer:

The discount rate of 8% for 11 year period provides the present value of annual cash flows to be equal to the initial investment.

Explanation:

Using the table of present value of annuity provided, we can check the rate and time period which is return the present value of cash flows from the project to be equal to initial Investment.

We are told that the Project's life is expected to be 11 Years. Thus using the 11 year period from the table we can see the following rates,

<u>11 Year Period</u>

Rate = 5%  ,  Annuity Factor = 8.3064  

Rate = 6%  ,  Annuity Factor = 7.8869

Rate = 7%  ,  Annuity Factor = 7.4987

Rate = 8%  ,  Annuity Factor = 7.1390

Rate = 9%  ,  Annuity Factor =  6.8052

We know that the annual cash flows from the project is $1,000,000 and we know the Initial Outlay is $7,139,000.

Multiplying the annual cash flow from the above annuity factors for each rate we can see which rate provides the present value of annual cash flows to be equal to initial outlay.

Rate = 5%  ,  Present value = 8.3064 *  1000000    = $8,306,400  

Rate = 6%  ,  Annuity Factor = 7.8869 *  1000000    = $7,886,900

Rate = 7%  ,  Annuity Factor = 7.4987 *  1000000    = $7,498,700

Rate = 8%  ,  Annuity Factor = 7.1390 *  1000000    = $7,139,000

Rate = 9%  ,  Annuity Factor =  6.8052 *  1000000    = $6,805,200

From the above calculation we can see that the rate of 8% provides the present value of annual cash flows to be equal to the initial investment.

The manufacturing cost per unit for absorption costing is:
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Always higher than manufacturing cost per unit for variable costing.

Explanation:

Absorption costing continuously contains fixed overheads similarly while computing the manufacturing cost.  

Conversely, under variable costing only adjustable overheads were included.

Thus, the manufacturing cost under absorption costing method is always higher than variable costing method  

Therefore, per unit cost will always be higher under absorption costing than in variable costing.

So, option C is the correct option

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

purchasing power bonds

Explanation:

The whole idea behind constant purchasing power bonds is that when they are redeemed, the amount of money received by the bondholder will hold a stable amount of purchasing power instead of a nominal amount of dollars.  

This type of bonds are similar to inflation-linked bonds which are adjusted to the value of the CPI.

The whole idea is that the bonds will always yield real interest rates.

$ 394,900 NET INCOME AFTER TAXES

-$ 62,000 Income Tax Expenses

$ 332,900 Net INCOME

Explanation:

In the multistep income it's possible to segregate the operative expenses and  revenues of the non operative, it also shows the gross profit, which is  

the Net Sales Revenues less the Cost of Goods Sold.  

First it's shown the Gross Profit, then substracted the operating expenses  

to arrive at operating income.

Finally with the non operating movements we have the net Income After Taxes  and with the taxes expenses we have the Net Income of the company.
