Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the activity rate for each activity:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Machining= 312,000/80,000= $3.9 per machine hour

Designing costs= 73,600/8,000= $9.2 per design hour

Setup costs= 71,600/500= $143.2 per batch

Now, we can allocate overhead to each product:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Product A:

Machining= 3.9*30,000= 117,000

Designing costs= 9.2*3,200= 29,440

Setup costs= 143.2*50= 7,160

Total overhead= $153,600

Product B:

Machining= 3.9*40,000= 156,000

Designing costs= 9.2*1,800= 16,560

Setup costs= 143.2*175= 25,060

Total overhead= $197,620

Product C:

Machining= 3.9*10,000= 39,000

Designing costs= 9.2*3,000= 27,600

Setup costs= 143.2*275= 39,380

Total overhead= $105,980

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

1.69

Explanation:

asset turnover ratio = net sales / average assets

I looked up the missing information and found the following:

total assets year 1 = $4,000,000

total assets year 2 = $4,300,000

net sales year 2 = $7,000,000

average assets = ($4,000,000 + $4,300,000) / 2 = $4,150,000

asset turnover ratio = $7,000,000 / $4,150,000 = 1.6867 = 1.69

The higher the asset turnover ratio, the more efficient a company is. Therefore, a higher asset turnover ratio is always better although there is no fixed parameter.

When a restaurant prices pizza at $10 per slice they sell 100 slices in a night. If they sell pizza for $5 per slice, they sell

IRISSAK [1]

Based on the restaurant prices for pizza and the different quantities that they will offer the pizzas, the slope of demand curve is -0.025

<h3>What is the slope of the demand curve?</h3>

The slope can be found as:

= Change in price / Change in quantity

Solving gives:

= (5 - 10) / (300 - 100)

= -5 / 200

= -0.025

In conclusion, the slope of the demand curve is -0.025

A University of Iowa basketball standout is offered a choice of contracts by the New York Liberty.

Ratling [72]

Answer: The lowest interest rate at which the present value of the second contract exceeds that of the first is a. 7 percent.

Explanation:

Calculating present values is a useful way to compare cases where money is to be received in the future. The higher the present value (when comparing cases where you get money), the better. To calculate it, we make use of the next formula:

$PV=\frac{C}{(1+r)^{n}}$

Where PV: Present value,

C: Cash flow at a given period,

r: Interest rate, and

n: Number of periods that will have passed (in this case, we are talking about years).

Now, since we are getting money twice in each case (the first payment one year from today, and the final payment two years from today), we can restructure our present value formula to include these two payments. We will get something like this:

$PV=\frac{C_1}{1+r}+\frac{C_2}{(1+r)^{2}}$

Notice how each fraction represents one of the payments received, with one having an 'n' of 1 year, and the other one having an 'n' of 2 years. C₁ and C₂ represent the first and the second payment, respectively.

Now that we have our completed formula, let's review each contract's present value (PV) with the lowest interest rate (7%), just to see how it turns out. Remember that 7% equals 0.07 in any formula:

Contract A) This one gives her $100,000 one year from today and $100,000 two years from today.

$PV_{A,0.07}=\frac{100000}{1+0.07}+\frac{100000}{(1+0.07)^{2}}\\PV_{A,0.07}=93457.944+87343.873\\PV_{A,0.07}=180801.817dollars$

So Contract A's present value at 7% interest rate would be equal to $180801.817.

Contract B) The second one gives her $132,000 one year from today and $66,000 two years from today.

$PV_{B,0.07}=\frac{132000}{1+0.07}+\frac{66000}{(1+0.07)^{2}}\\PV_{B,0.07}=123364.486+57646.956\\PV_{B,0.07}=181011.442dollars$

So Contract B's present value at 7% interest rate would be equal to $181011.442, which exceeds that of Contract A.

Since among our options of interest rates, 7 percent is the lowest one, and, with this taken into account, the present value of the second contract (Contract B) exceeded that of the first (Contract A), the answer is a. 7 percent.
