Think about your decision to buy the textbook for this course. You paid $250 for the book, but you would have been willing to pa

y $400 to use the book for the semester. Suppose that at the end of the semester you could keep your textbook or sell it back to the bookstore. Once you have completed the course, the book is worth only $50 to you. The bookstore will pay you 50% of the original $250.

If the questions are “would I choose to buy the book in the first place”, and “Would I sell the book at the end of the course”, the answer to both questions is yes. The benefit of buying the book for the course is $400 dollars, which is greater than the sales price of $250. Thus, I would buy the book. At the end of the course, the benefit of keeping the book is $50, while my potential sales price is $125 (50% of 250). Thus, I can sell the book for more than it is worth to me, so I will sell the book at the end of the course.

company manufactures pillows. the operating budget was based on production of ​pillows, with ​machine-hours allowed per pillow.
MatroZZZ [7]

a. The budgeted variable overhead is $468,750.

b. The variable overhead spending variance is $38,100 Favorable

c. The variable overhead efficiency variance is $30,000 Favorable

<h3>What is variable overhead?</h3>

Variable overhead is a cost of running a business that varies with operational activity. Variable overheads rise and fall in lockstep with production output. Overheads, such as administrative overhead, are often a set cost.

The variable manufacturing overhead controllable variance reflects how effectively the company stuck to its budget. The difference between the planned fixed overhead at normal capacity and the standard fixed overhead for the actual units produced is the fixed factory overhead volume variance.

a. The budgeted variable overhead for 2017 = Budgeted hours * Variable overhead rate per hour

= (25000*0.75)*$25 = $468,750

b. Variable overhead spending variance = (SR - AR) * AH = ($25 - $23) * 19050 = $38,100 Favorable

c. Variable overhead efficiency variance = (SH - AH) * SR = (27000*0.75 - 19050) * $25 = $30,000 Favorable

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The present value of a 3-year, $150 annuity due will exceed the present value o
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Statement a. is correct.

Explanation:

The effective annual rate is always higher than the nominal interest rate, as the formula is clear for any number of periods, for any interest rate:

Effective Annual Rate of return = (1 + \frac{i}{n})^n - 1

Further if we calculate the present value of annuity due and ordinary annuity assuming 6 % interest rate, then:

Present value of annuity due =

(1 + 0.06) \times 150 \times (\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + 0.06)^3} }{0.06} )

= 1.06 \times $400.95

= $425.0089

Present value of ordinary annuity = 150 \times (\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + 0.06)^3} }{0.06} )

= $150 \times 2.6730

= $400.95

Therefore, value of annuity due is more than value of ordinary annuity.

Statement a. is correct.

At which stage of the product life cycle are product sales always zero?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

Introduction

Explanation:

The Product Life Cycle is a term used to refer to the lifespan of a product. Beginning from the introduction of the product to the market, the product grows into maturity and ultimately leads to the death/decline of the product.

There are four stages of the Product Life Cycle:

  • Introduction
  • Growth
  • Maturity
  • Decline

The stage in which the product sales are always zero is the introduction of the product to the market. When a product is introduced to the market, the product sales are always zero. It is after consumers become familiar with the product that its sales increase.

Therefore, the introduction stage is the correct answer.
