People decide to save 20 percent of their incomes. The value of the marginal propensity to consume is ________ and the value of

DerKrebs [107]

Answer: 0.8; 5

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that people decide to save 20 percent of their incomes. We should note that the addition of the marginal prospensity to consume(MPC) and the marginal prospensity to save(MPS) will be equal to 1.

Therefore, the value of the marginal propensity to consume will be:

= 1 - 20%

= 1 - 0.2

= 0.8

The value of the spending multiplier will be calculated as:

= 1/MPS

= 1/0.2

= 5

5 Make versus buy, activity-based costing. The Svenson Corporation manufactures cellular modems. It manufactures its own cellula

zmey [24]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Expected manufacturing costs 2018:

Direct materials $170 × 10,000 = $1,700,000

Direct labor $45 per unit × 10,000 = $450,000

Variable overhead per batch 1,500 × 80 = $120,000

Fixed overhead:

Avoidable $320,000

Not avoidable $800,000

1. Calculate that total expected manufacturing cost per unit of making CMCBs in 2018

= $1,700,000 + $450,000 + $120,000 + $320,000 + $800,000

= $3,390,000

Cost per unit = $3,390,000/10,000 units

= $339 per unit

2. Svenson should keep manufacturing the CMCBs

Costs if CMCBs are purchased from Minton = ($300 × 10,000) + $800,000

= $3,000,000 + $800,000

= $3,800,000

It means that the cost of purchasing is $410,000 [ $3,390,000 - $3,800,000] higher than the cost of manufacturing.
