Answer:

1 EUR = 120 JPY

Explanation:

As the purchasing power parity theory, the exchange rate of currency 1 to currency 2  = Cost of good  in currency 1 / cost of same valued item  in currency 2

In this case,  a Lexus LS400 and a Mercedes C300 are considered to be of equivalent value, then the exchange rate between the yen and the euro

= price of Lexus in Tokyo/ price of Mercedes  in Stuttgart

= 6,000,000 JPY/ 50,000 EUR

= 120 JPY/EUR

Yvette is a college student who lives in San Francisco and does some consulting work for extra cash. At a wage of $35 per hour,
White raven [17]

Answer:

<em>The elasticity of Yvette's labor supply is 2.67 and the value is greater than 1  so the wage range is elastic.</em>

Explanation:

The wage one is given asW_1=  $35

The Quantity of time is given as T_1=4 hours

The second wage is given as W_2=$45

The quantity of time for second wage is T_2=8 hours

So the calculation of elasticity is as

CoE=\frac{T_2-T_1}{Q_2-Q_1} \times\frac{T_2+T_1}{Q_2+Q_1}

By replacing the values

CoE=\frac{T_2-T_1}{Q_2-Q_1} \times\frac{Q_2+Q_1}{T_2+T_1}\\CoE=\frac{8-4}{45-35} \times\frac{45+35}{8+4}\\CoE=\frac{4}{10} \times\frac{80}{12}\\CoE=0.4\times 6.67\\CoE=2.67

So <em>The elasticity of Yvette's labor supply is 2.67 and the value is greater than 1  so the wage range is elastic.</em>

The cost of direct materials transferred into the Bottling Department of the Mountain Springs Water Company is $672,000. The con
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Cost per equivalent unit of materials=20 per unit

Cost per equivalent unit of conversion=50 per unit

Explanation:

The cost of direct materials in Mountain spring water company is $672,000

The conversion cost for that period in the bottling company is $365,000

The total equivalent unit for direct materials is 33,600 liters

The total equivalent unit for conversion is 7,300 liters

The cost per equivalent unit of materials can be calculated as follows

= Cost of direct materials/total equivalent unit for direct materials

= $672,000/33,600 liters

= 20 per unit

The cost per equivalent unit of conversion can be calculated as follows

= Conversion cost/total equivalent unit of conversion

= $365,000/7,300liters

= 50 per unit

Hence the cost per equivalent unit of materials is 20 per unit and the cost per equivalent unit of conversion is 50 per unit.
