Answer:

Annual growth rate = 1.29% per year

Population in 2050 = 11.53 billion

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Population in 1999 = 6 billion = 6,000,000,000

Rate of increase in population = 212,000 per day

Now,

Number of days in a year = 365

Therefore,

Annual growth rate

= [ Growth rate per day × Number of days in a year ] ÷ initial population

= [ 212,000 × 365 ] ÷ 6,000,000,000

= 0.0129 per year

or

= 0.0129 × 100%

= 1.29% per year

Now,

2050 is 51 year from 1999

Population in 2050 = Population in 1999 × ( 1 + rate )ⁿ

= 6,000,000,000 × ( 1 + 0.0129 )⁵¹

= 11.53 billion

Suppose Jose splits his spending across scones and coffees. Due to droughts in coffee-producing regions, the price of coffee dou
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

He will be less likely to spend on scones.

Explanation:

Understanding the spending pattern requires to understand the factors involving in purchasing.

  1. Income: Some people live tightly, and for that they have to cut down their expenditures and that affects their spending. Jose will not have much issues although buying scones because they will not be expensive, so this relationship is negative.
  2. Substitution: This will probably affect the the spending of Jones on scones because he used to buy both together, and if he stops spending on coffee he will not buy scones as well.

Gitano Products operates a job-order costing system and applies overhead cost to jobs on the basis of direct materials used in p
Yanka [14]

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-  

1. Predetermined Overhead Rate for a Year

= Estimated Manufacturing Overhead ÷ Estimated Allocation Base Of Direct Material × 100

= $133,500 ÷ $89,000 × 100

= 150%

2. We have a need the value of overhead applied and overhead incurred, to calculate the value of over applied and under applied overhead.

Overhead Applied = (Purchase Of Direct Material + Opening Value of Direct Material - Closing Value of Direct Material) × Predetermined Overhead Rate

= ($139,000 + $27,000 - $13,000) × 150 ÷ 100

= $153,000 × 150 ÷ 100

= $229,500

Overhead Incurred

= Indirect Labor + Property Taxes + Depreciation of Equipment + Maintenance + Insurance + Rent&Building  

= 127,800 + 8,880 + 18,000 + 12,000 + 11,300 + 40,000

= $217,980

Over Applied Overhead = Overhead Applied - Overhead Incurred

= $229,500 - $217,980

= $11,520

Overhead applied is more than overhead incurred, so this situation is called over applied overhead.

3. Cost of Goods Manufactured for the Year

Particular  Amount  ($)

Opening stock of raw material 27,000

Add-purchases of raw material 139,000

Less-closing stock of raw material 13,000

Add-Direct labor 85,000

Add-Manufacturing overhead applied to WIP 229,500

Add-Opening Work in Progress 46,000

Less-closing Work in Progress 36,000

Goods manufacturing cost 477,500

4. Unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold

Particular  Amount ($)

Goods manufacturing cost 477,500

Add-finished goods opening stock 71,000

Less-finished goods closing stock 56,000

Cost of goods sold 492,500

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Option D                      

Explanation:

A positive or explanatory statement in the humanities and psychology is about what "is," "was" or "will be," and does not involve any impression of acceptance or rejection.

The positive explanation is supported by empirical evidence. For eg, "A rise in taxes would lead to less usage" and "A decrease in fuel production would cause an increase to its value."

Positive assumptions are commonly used to explain the observable, such as the inflation rate in a country. These are primarily used to explain hypotheses and principles.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Bond issuance:

Dr cash                                          $710,000

Dr discount on bonds payable    $40,000

Cr bonds payable                                           $750,000

The payment of interest on December 31, 2018:

Dr interest expense     $50,000

Cr discount on bonds payable    $5000

Cr cash                                           $45,000

Explanation:

The bonds were issued at a discount to their face value, as a result, the discount on bonds payable is computed thus:

discount on bonds payable=$750,000-$710,000=$40,000

Bonds payable would be credited with $750,000 while cash and discount on bonds payable would be debited with $710,000 and $40,000 respectively

annual discount amortization=$40,000/8=$5000

annual coupon=$750,000*6%=$45000
