Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Condelezza Co. expects to produce 10,000 units of Product A and 20,000 units of Product B in the coming year.
Budgeted factory overhead costs for the coming year are:
Assembly $310,000
Finishing 240,000
Total $550,000
The machine hours expected to be used in the coming year are as follows:
Assembly Dept.
Product A 15,100
Product B 4,900
Total 20,000
Finishing Dept.
Product A 9,000
Product B 11,000
Total 20,000
A) Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 550,000/40,000= $13.75 per machine hour
B) Departamental rates:
Assembly= 310,000/20,000= $15.5 per machine hour.
Finishing= 240,000/20,000= $12 per machine hour.

Answer:
The yield to call is 2.24%.
Explanation:
To calculate the yield to call, you can use the following formula:
YTC = (C + (CP - P) / t) / ((CP + P) / 2)
YTC= Yield to call
C= Annual Coupon: 0
CP= Call price of the bond: $509
P= Price of the bond: $455
t= time remaining until call date: 5
YTC= (0+(509-455)/5)/((509+455)/2)
YTC=(54/5)/(964/2)
YTC= 10.8/482
YTC= 0.0224= 2.24%
A decrease in aggregate demand causes the price level to fall. If the government takes no action to
counter this, then the actual price level will be below the price level that people expected.
Individuals will eventually correct their expectations of the price level. As they do so, prices and
wages will adjust accordingly, shifting the aggregate supply curve to the right (down). For example
if wages are sticky, in light of the lower price level, firms and workers will eventually make bargains
for lower nominal wages. The reduction in wages lowers costs of production, so firms are willing to
