Answer:

overhead rate: 17.5

Explanation:

The difference between applied an actual overhead is calculated as follows:

actual hours x overhead rate - actual cost = over or underapplied overhead

underapplied means actual were higher than applied

while, overapplied means the actual cost were lower.

Based on this information we can set up the foermula as follows:

overhead rate x 32,000 -540,000 =  20,000

now we solve for the rate:

rate = (20,000 + 540,000) / 32,000 = 17.5

Answer:

1-a.

in order to determine the present value of option a we can look for the PVIFA (annuity factor) for 24% / 12 = 2% monthly rate and 25 payments.

PVIFA = 19.523

Present value of the 25 payments = $540 x 19.523 = $10,542.42

+

Present value of final payment = $10,000 / (1 + 24%)²⁵/¹² = $6,388.10

PV = $16,930.52

Present value of option b = $16,638

1-b.

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Willingness to pay

Revenue

Two

Elastic

Inelastic

Explanation:

Price discrimination is when a producer or a seller charges different prices for the same product usually in different markets.

In price discrimination, a seller attempts to remove or reduce consumer surplus by charging the consumer at his willingness to pay. For price discrimination to be effective, a seller must be able to estimate the willingness to pay of consumers.

Price discrimination is successful when a seller earns higher profits when she discriminates compared to when she didn't price discriminate.

Price discrimination exists in the airline industry. One of the ways price discrimination exists in the airline industry is through charging to check bags. Customers ( people who board airplanes) are distributed into two groups- those who won't pay to check bags and those who would pay to check bags.

It is assumed that those who would pay to check their bags have a price inelastic demand because they are indifferent to paying an extra amount for their luggage.

Inelastic demand is defined as when a small change in price has no effect on quantity demanded.

While it is assumed that those who won't pay to check their bags have an elastic demand because they are unwilling to pay extra to check their luggages.

Elastic demand is when a change in price has effect on quantity demanded.

Explanation:

Unamortized bond discount=original bond discount-amortization to date

original bond discount is $46,000

Amortization =interest  payable-interest expense

interest payable=$400,000*10%*6/12

                            =$20,000

Interest expense=$354,000*10%*6/12

                             =$17,700

amortization of discount=$20,000-$17,700

                                        =$2300

unamorized bond discount=$46000-$2300

                                            =$43,700

The unamorized bond discount at the end of the first six months is $43,700
