Accounts receivable arising from sales to customers amounted to $80,000 and $70,000 at the beginning and end of the year, respec

vichka [17]

Answer:

b. $290,000

Explanation:

The computation of the cash flows from operating activities to be reported on the statement of cash flows is shown below:

= Net income reported on the income statement + decrease in account receivable

where,

Net income reported = $280,000

And, the decrease in account receivable is $10,000 ($70,000 - $80,000)

So, the cash flow from operating activities

= $280,000 + $10,000

= $290,000

The decrease in account receivable implies that more cash is come so it would be added and the same is shown above

Zanny Electronics Corporation uses a standard cost system for the production of its water ski radios. The direct labor standard

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Labor Rate Variance = - $1,188 Unfavorable

Explanation:

Provided labor hours for each radio = 0.9

Standard labor cost per hour = $7.20

Actual labor cost = $48,708

Actual labor hours = 6,600

Actual labor rate = $48,708/6,600 = $7.38

Labor Rate Variance = (Standard Rate - Actual Rate) $\times$ Actual Hours

= ($7.20 - $7.38) $\times$ 6,600 =<em><u> - $1,188 Unfavorable</u></em>

Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a motivational theory that goes through five forms of needs set out below:

1. Physiological needs: These are the survival needs i.e. food, clothing, house, air

2. Security needs: This need covers human, financial, etc. protection and security

3. Social needs: These needs represent an person being or not involved in social groups. It makes the person not feel alone, lonely, etc.

Linda loves buying shoes and going out to dance. Her utility function for pairs of shoes, S, and the number of times she goes d

padilas [110]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Given

$U(S,T) = 2ST$

$M_U_S =2T$

$M_U_T=2S$

The following details are omitted from the question

$P_S= \$50$ --- Price of the Shoes

$P_T = \$50$ --- Spent on dancing

$B = \$500$ --- Budget on shoe and dancing

Solving (a): Her budget line

First, we determine her budget equation (B).

This is calculated by:

$B = P_S * S + P_T *T$

This gives:

$500 = 50 * S + 50 * T$

$500 = 50 S + 50 T$

Divide through by 50

$10 =S + T$

$S + T = 10$ --- The budget equation

<em>See attachment for the budget line equation</em>

Solving (a): Optimal Consumption Bundle Point

First, we determine the marginal rate of substitution (MRS) using:

$MRS = \frac{MU_s}{MU_t} = 1$

$MRS = \frac{2S}{2T} =1$

This implies that:

$\frac{2S}{2T} = 1$

Cross Multiply

$2S = 2T * 1$

$2S = 2T$

Divide by 2

$S = T$

Substitute T for S in the budget equation

$T + T= 10$

$2T = 10$

$T=5$

Recall that:

$S = T$

$S = 5$

So, the point if optimal consumption bundle is (5,5)
