It can be traced in no small part to policies that have allowed labor standards, business practices, and ideas of fairness to increasingly favor employers at the expense of workers.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

See Explanation Below

Explanation:

Given

Beginning inventory units = 15,000 units

Beginning Inventory Completed = 60% completed

Current work = 35,000 units started

Ending inventory = 5,000 units

Ending inventory completed = 20% completed

Using FIFO, the production cost report is as follows

First, we determine the physical flow of units;.

This is listed out as follows;

Beginning WIP Inventory: 15,000 units

Unit started this period: 35,000 units

Total units to account for = 50,000 units

Units completed and transferred out: 45,000 units

Ending WIP Inventory: 5,000 units

Total accounted units: 50,000 units

Unit completed and transferred out is calculated by;

Total units to account for - Ending WIP Inventory

= 50,000 units - 5,000 units

= 45,000 units

Calculating the EUP (Equivalent Unit of Production)

Equivalent Unit to complete beginning WIP Inventory

Direct Materials: 15,000 (100% - 100%) = 0 EUP (Direct)

Conversions: 15,000 (100% - 60%) = 6,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Direct)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit in ending WIP Inventory:

Direct: 5,000 units * 100% = 5,000 EUP (Direct)

Conversion: 5,000 * 20% = 1,000 EUP (Conversion)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 0 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 5,000 EUP = 35,000 EUP (Direct)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 6,000 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 1,000 EUP = 37,000 EUP (Conversion)

Note that;

Equivalent Unit started and completed is calculated as follows;

Total Units account for (45,000) - Beginning Unit (15,000) = 30,000 EUP

meriva

Answer: c. Ten years, because maintenance costs don't increase.

Explanation:

With the maintenance costs constant at $24,000 a year, the machine is still expected to go 10 years before it's x-ray source is depleted and it has to be scrapped.

This means that the useful life is therefore 10 years because the maintenance cost will not increase but will still keep the machine going for 10 years.

According to the capital asset pricing model, the expected return on a security is: Group of answer choices positively and linea

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

e. the expected return on a security is positively and linearly related to the security's beta.

Explanation:

As per CAPM: Expected return (ER) = Rf + \beta (Rm - Rf)

Lets assume risk free return (Rf) as 5%, \beta as 2 and expected market return (Rm) as 10%

then, ER = 5% + 2 (10% - 5%) = 15%

However if lets assume all the other factors remain the same and \beta increases to 3

then, ER = 5% + 3 (10% - 5%) = 20%

Similarly if \beta reduces to 1

then, ER = 5% + 1 (10% - 5%) = 10%

So higher the \beta higher is the risk and hence higher the expected return. Hence expected return on a security is positvely and linearly related to the security's beta
