Answer:

a.sensitive questions should be asked first.

Explanation:

When conducting marketing research, the researcher should strive to present the research as professional work. He or she must conduct themselves professionally when presenting the research documents to the respondents. The impression he or she creates in the mind of the respondents may influence the kind response he will get.

Respondents will gauge the professionalism or seriousness of a research study based on the content and flow of questions. If the first question is sensitive, a majority of respondents will not take the research seriously. The sensitive question may be offensive to some respondents, making them abandon the research. That question may make some respondents uncomfortable and deny the study the seriousness it deserves.

Majestic Corporation manufactures wheel barrows and uses budgeted machine hours to allocate variable manufacturing overhead. The

andre [41]

Answer:

$409185

Explanation:

Given: Budgeted output units: 28,475 units

Budgeted machine-hours: 17,085 hours

Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead costs for 28,475 units: $358,785

Actual output units produced: 32,475 units

Actual machine-hours used: 15,000 hours

Actual variable manufacturing overhead costs: $384,060.

First, we will find Budgeted machine hour per unit produced.

Budgeted machine hour per unit produced= $\frac{Budgeted\ machine\ hour}{Budgeted\ units}$

⇒ $Budgeted machine hour per unit produced= 17085\div 28475= 0.6$

∴Budgeted machine hour per unit produced= 0.6

Budgeted machine hours allowed for 32475 units= $32475\times 0.6= 19485$

Budgeted variable overhead rate per machine hour= $\textrm {Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead costs}\div Budgeted\ machine\ hours$

Budgeted variable overhead rate per machine hour= $358785\div 17085= \$ 21$

Now, lets find out flexible budget amount.

Flexible budget amount= $\textrm{Budgeted machine hours allowed}\times \textrm{Budgeted variable overhead rate}$

Flexible budget amount= $19485\times \$ 21= \$ 409185$

∴Flexible budget amount for variable manufacturing overhead= $409185

Final Finishing is considering three mutually exclusive alternatives for a new polisher. Each alternative has an expected life o

valkas [14]

Answer:

1. 18.09%

2. 12%

3. 20.02%

Explanation:

As the MARR is 15%, we will accept projects which have IRR more than 15%. As the projects are mutually exclusive, we will choose only one project.

An IRR (Internal Rate of Return) is the rate which makes the NPV (Net Present Value) = ZERO.

The formula to calculate IRR is: 0 = P0 + P1/(1+IRR) + P2/(1+IRR)2 + P3/(1+IRR)3 + . . . +Pn/(1+IRR)n where P0 = Initial cash outflow

And P1, . . . Pn equals the cash inflows in periods 1, 2, . . . n, respectively.

1) IRR of project 1:

0 = -$20,000 + $4,465/(1+IRR)1 + $4,465/(1+IRR)2 + $4,465/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $4,465/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 18.09%

2) IRR of project 2:

0 = -$10,000 + $1,770/(1+IRR)1 + $1,770/(1+IRR)2 + $1,770/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $1,770/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 12%

3) IRR of project 3:

0 = -$15,000 + $3,580/(1+IRR)1 + $3,580/(1+IRR)2 + $3,580/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $3,580/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 20.02%

We will choose project 3 as it has the highest IRR.

Permanent tax cuts shift the AD curveSelect one:a. farther to the left than do temporary tax cuts.b. not as far to the right as

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

farther to the right than temporary tax cuts

Explanation:

The permanent tax cuts have more impact on consumption spending than temporary one. A permanent tax cut raises the expected lifetime wealth and increases autonomous consumption, thus leading to an upward shift of the consumption function. Consequently the permanent tax cuts shift the AD curve farther to the right compared to the temporary tax cuts.
