Answer:

The answer is: b

Explanation:

In long-run equilibrium, the long run aggregate demand curve and aggregate supply curve intersect where the marginal revenue (revenue derived from selling an additional unit) and marginal cost (cost incurred from producing) an additional unit) are equal.  In the long-run equilibrium, this intersection occurs at the lowest point of the long-run average total cost curve (curve depicting the average cost per unit of production).

Holding all else constant, short run changes in the economy would not change the potential output levels. The long-run aggregate supply curve would remain fixed at the potential level of output. However, these changes: international tensions, corporate scandals and loss of confidence in policymakers would cause shifts in the aggregate demand curve since demand would be adversely affected.

Consumer confidence is the perspective or outlook that consumers have on the state of the economy. The destabilising factors given in this scenario would raise the levels of uncertainty and perceived risk, reducing the confidence levels of consumers and ultimately resulting in reduced demand. In long-run equilibrium, when demand is reduced, it is indicated by a leftward shift in the aggregate demand curve.

Primera Company produces two products and uses a predetermined overhead rate to apply overhead. Primera currently applies overhe
pychu [463]

Answer:

Primera Company

1. Plantwide predetermined overhead rate:

= $1,536,000/768,000

= $2.00 per direct labor hour

Overhead assigned to each product:

                                   Product 1    Product 2

Direct labor hours     480,000        147,200

Predetermined overhead

 rate  = $2 per direct labor hour

Total overhead =    $960,000    $294,400

2. Predetermined departmental overhead rates:

Department 1:    

Direct labor hours $2 ($1,536,000/768,000)

Department 2

Machine hours = $7.385 ($1,536,000/208,000)

Overhead assigned:

Product 1 = $960,000 (480,000 * $2)

Product 2 = $70,896 (9,600 * $7.385)

3. The applied overhead for the year:

Department 1 = $1,254,400 (627,200 * $2)

Department 2 = $1,512,448 (204,800 * $7.385)

Total   =            $2,766,848

Overapplied overhead for the firm = $1,134,848 ($2,766,848 - $1,632,000)

4. Debit Manufacturing overhead $1,134,848

Credit Cost of goods sold $1,134,848

To transfer the overapplied overhead to cost of goods sold.

Additional information needed if the variance is material is to determine the percentages to allocated to Work in process, Finished Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimates:

                            Department 1   Department 2      Total  

Direct labor hours    640,000            128,000        768,000

Machine hours            16,000            192,000        208,000

Overhead cost       $384,000       $1,152,000    $1,536,000

Actual results:

                            Department 1   Department 2      Total  

Direct labor hours     627,200             134,400       761,600

Machine hours             17,600            204,800      222,400

Overhead cost       $400,000       $1,232,000  $1,632,000

                       Product 1 Product 2        Total  

Direct labor hours:

Department 1 480,000    147,200      627,200

Department 2  96,000     38,400       134,400

Machine hours:

Department 1    8,000        9,600         17,600

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Interest expense $21,385

     To Discount on bond payable $235

     To Cash $21,150

(Being the interest expense is recorded)

The computation is given below:

The interest expense is

=  $470,000 ÷ 100 × 91 × 10% ÷ 12 months × 6 months  

= $21,385

The cash is

= $470,000 × 9% ÷ 12 months × 6 months  

= $21,150

And, the remaining balance is credited to discount on note payable

We simply debited the interest expense as it increased the expenses and credited the cash as it reduced the assets plus the remaining amount is credited to discount on bond payable

Microtech Corporation is expanding rapidly and currently needs to retain all of its earnings, hence it does not pay dividends. H
12345 [234]

Answer:

Di = dividend in year i

D0 = D1 = D2 = 0

D3 = 2

D4 = D3 * (1+24%) = 2.48

D5 = D4 * (1+24%) = 3.0752

D6 = D5 * (1+7%) = 3.290464

require return r = 14%

g = 7% in the long run

So stock price in year 5 = D6/(r-g) = 3.290464/(14%-7%) = 47.0066

Current price = Present value of dividends and stock

= D1/(1+r) + D2/(1+r)^2 + D3/(1+r)^3 + D4/(1+r)^4 + D5/(1+r)^5 + Price in year 5/(1+r)^5

= 0 + 0 + 2/(1+14%)^3 + 2.48/(1+14%)^4 + 3.0752/(1+14%)^5 + 47.0066/(1+14%)^5

= 28.829219

= 28.83 (rounded to 2 decimals)
