Answer:

Variable cost= $42

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each unit is sold for $50

Direct material worth $30

Direct labor worth $5.

Manufacturing overhead cost is $10 per unit of which 70% is variable.

The incremental cost is the variable cost (there is available capacity)

Variable cost= direct material + direct labor + variable manufacturing overhead = 30 + 5 + (10*0.7)= $42

Answer:

Change in accounting estimate

Depreciation for 2018: $80,000

Explanation:

A change in accounting estimate occurs when there is new information that surfaces, affecting the initial situation. It can affect the carrying amount of an asset or liability as well as alter the accounting for existing and future assets or liabilities.

The machine has a cost of $800,000. It is depreciated using the straight-line method of depreciation. Hence, the depreciation expense is the same annually throughout the life of the asset.

Annual depreciation = (Cost of asset - salvage value) / number of useful years

Old annual depreciation = ($800,000-0) / 5 = $160,000 per year.

By January 2018, the asset has depreciated for two years. Hence the book value of the asset as at 2018 is the difference between the cost of the asset and the total depreciation expense i.e. $800,000 - (160,000 x 2)

= $480,000.

According to the new depreciation estimate, the asset has a useful life of 8 years. Hence the remaining years is 6 years ( 8 - 2).

The annual depreciation currently is = ($480,000 - 0) / 6 = $80,000

Depreciation expense for 2018 = $80,000

liq [111]

The government acts as a promoter of free and competitive markets. This  is not a key way the government contributes to a country's total factor productivity.

What is Total Factor Productivity (TFP)?

The total factor productivity (TFP) is a figure that illustrates a company's productivity by comparing how much it produces with how much it must spend to get that result. It is computed by dividing your total output (production) by average costs (inputs).

The efficiency and performance level of a corporation are determined using the total factor productivity. It makes an effort to determine how effectively the inputs have been translated into the output. In honor of American economist Robert Solow, the TFP is also referred to as the Solow residual.

To know more about total factor productivity refer:

Consider a risky portfolio. The end-of-year cash flow derived from the portfolio will be either $70,000 or $200,000 with equal p
xenn [34]

Answer:

A) 964,286

B) 14

C) 750,000

Explanation:

The portfolios expected return = (0.5 x $70,000) + (0.5 x $200,000) = $35,000 + $100,000 = $135,000

If the risk free investment yields 6% per year, and you require a risk premium of 8%, then the total interest rate that the portfolio yields must be 6% + 8% = 14%

you will be willing to pay: $135,000 / 14% = $964,286 for the portfolio

if the risk premium increase by 4%, then the price of the portfolio will decrease to: $135,000 / 18% = $750,000
