What are the differences between flexibility and compromise

A company's normal selling price for its product is $20 per unit. However, due to market competition, the selling price has fall

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

$2,600

Explanation:

Calculation of the value of the company's inventory at the lower of cost or market.

Current FIFO inventory ×Net realizable value

Where,

Current FIFO inventory= 200 units

Net realizable value $13 per unit

Therefore,

200 units *$13 per unit = $2,600.

Lower cost of market can be said to mean that the inventory cost at either the purchase cost or replacement value .

Bases on the information given in the question, replacement cost is lower or lesser than the purchase cost which is why the inventory units are been cost at the replacement value of $13 each.

In the 2-factor, 2-good Heckscher-Ohlin model, the country with a relative abundance of ________ will have a production possibil

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The answer to this question is (c) Labour, Labour intensive

In the 2-factor, 2-good Heckscher-Ohlin model, the country with a relative abundance of labour will have a production possibility frontier that is biased toward production of the labour intensive good

Explanation:

The Heckscher-Ohlin model is an economic theory that proposes that countries export what they can most efficiently and plentifully produce.

The model emphasizes the export of goods requiring factors of production that a country has in abundance. It also emphasizes the import of goods that a nation cannot produce as efficiently. It takes the position that countries should ideally export materials and resources of which they have an excess, while proportionately importing those resources they need.

Therefore in regard to the question above,

In the 2-factor, 2-good Heckscher-Ohlin model, the country with a relative abundance of labour will have a production possibility frontier that is biased toward production of the labour intensive good

Hence the answer is the third option, Labour, Labour intensive

On January 1, 2021, the Allegheny Corporation purchased equipment for $115,000. The estimated service life of the equipment is 1

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

1. $11,000 each year

2. $23,000 and $18,400

3. $15,000 and $12,500

Explanation:

The calculation of the depreciation expense for the 2021 and 2022 is shown below:

1. Straight-line method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated service life)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ (10 years)

= ($110,000) ÷ (10 years)

= $11,000

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life i.e for 2021 also the same depreciation is applied i.e $11,000

2. Double-declining balance method:

First we have to determine the depreciation rate which is

= One ÷ estimated service life

= 1 ÷ 10

= 10%

Now the rate is double So, 20%

In year 1, the original cost is $115,000, so the depreciation is $23,000 after applying the 20% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the $(115,000 - $23,000) × 20% = $18,400

3. Units-of-production method:

= (Purchase value of equipment - estimated residual value) ÷ (estimated production units)

= ($115,000 - $5,000) ÷ ($220,000 units)

= ($110,000) ÷ (220,000 units)

= $0.5 per units

For 2021, it would be

= Production units in 2021 year × depreciation per unit

= 30,000 units × $0.5

= $15,000

Now for the 2022, it would be

= Production units in 2022 year × depreciation per unit

= 25,000 units × $0.5

= $12,500

The following monthly data are available for Coronado Industries. which produces only one product: Selling price per unit, $38;

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price per unit= $38

Unit variable expenses= $14

Total fixed expenses= $42,000

Actual sales for June= 3000 units.

First, we need to calculate the break-even point in dollar using the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 42,000/ [(38 - 14)/38]

Break-even point (dollars)= $66,500

Now, we can calculate the margin of safety in dollars:

Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)

Margin of safety= (3,000*38 - 66,500)

Margin of safety= (114,000 - 66,500)

Margin of safety= $47,500

Suppose the U.S. yield curve is flat at 4% and the euro yield curve is flat at 3%. The current exchange rate is $1.50 per euro.

lianna [129]

Answer:

$4.24287 million per year

Explanation:

Missing question: The swap will call for the exchange of 1 million euros for a given number of dollars in each year.

For structured three separate forward contracts of the exchange of currencies, the forward price could be found as follows

Forward exchange rate * $1 million error = Dollar to be received

Year 1 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03) * 1 million euros

Year 1 = 1.514563106796117 * 1 million euros

Year 1 = $1.5145 million

Year 2 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03)^2 * 1 million euros

Year 2 = 1.529267602978604 * 1 million euros

Year 2 = $1.5293 million

Year 3 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03)^3 * 1 million euros

Year 3 = $1.5441 million

The number of dollars each year is determined by computing the present value:

= 1.5145 / 1.04 + 1.5293 /(1.04)^2 +1.5441 / (1.04)^3

= 1.45625 + 1.41392 + 1.3727

= $4.24287 million per year
