Answer:
Explanation:
The following statement is false and true
1. Indirect costs are traced to cost objects - This statement is false because it is not directly traced to the cost objectives. It is traced through the cost drivers.
2. Yes, this statement is true because the cost drivers are used to allocate the indirect cost to their cost objects
3. Yes, this statement is true because for computing the allocation rate, we have to divide the total allocation cost to its allocation base
4. Yes, this statement is true because the cost drivers play very important for cost allocation. Without cost drivers, the allocation of the cost would not be possible
5. This statement is false because depreciation should be allocated based on its useful life rather than the number of square feet because the number of square feet occupied is used to allocate the renting cost
1. Business artifacts are a mechanism to record this information in units that are concrete, identifiable, self-describing, and indivisible
2. business graphics. Numeric data represented in graphic form.
3.In humans, one of the means of communication is the posture of the body, in addition to facial expressions, personal distances, gestures and body movements. Posture conveys information about: Interpersonal relations. Personality traits
4. Haptics is any form of interaction involving touch.
5. Proxemics is the study of human use of space and the effects that population density has on behaviour, communication, and social interaction.
6. Chronemics is the study of the role of time in communication.
7. A facial expression is one or more motions or positions of the muscles beneath the skin of the face.
8. Oculesics, a subcategory of kinesics, is the study of eye movement, eye behavior, gaze, and eye-related nonverbal communication.
9.Vocalics is the study of paralanguage, which includes the vocal qualities that go along with verbal messages, such as pitch, volume, rate, vocal quality, and verbal fillers.
10. Paralanguage is a component of meta-communication that may modify meaning, give nuanced meaning, or convey emotion, such as prosody, pitch, volume, intonation, etc.
Answer:
i. How much do you owe on the loan today?
- remaining principal balance = $484,331.31
ii. How much interest did the firm pay on the loan in the past year?
- during year 2, $23,458 was paid in interests ($28,833.33 was paid in interest during year 1).
iii. Suppose starting next year (fourth year) the loan rate jumps to 7.2% APR. What is the remaining balance? What will be the monthly payment?
- the remaining balance at the beginning of year 4 is $475,916
- the new monthly payment will be $3,375.72
Explanation:
I prepared two amortization schedules using an excel spreadsheet. The principal on the loan was $500,000. The first one has a fixed 4.8% APR for the whole 30 years. In the second one, the APR changes to 7.2% at the beginning of year 4.

Answer:
5.67 years
8.99 years
Explanation:
The relationship between future value, present value, interest rate as well as the duration of an investment(n) are depicted below with future value formula:
FV=PV*(1+r)^n
FV=future value( let us assume it is $10,000)
PV=$5,000( half of the present value)
r=13% interest rate
n=duration of the investment=the unknown
10,000=5000*(1+13%)^n
10,000/5000=1.13^n
2=1.13^n
take log of both sides
ln(2)=n ln(1.13)
n= ln(2)/ln (1.13) = 5.67 years
Triple of original investment:
FV=PV*(1+r)^n
FV=future value( let us assume it is $15,000)
PV=$5,000(one-third of the present value)
r=13% interest rate
n=duration of the investment=the unknown
15,000=5000*(1+13%)^n
15,000/5000=1.13^n
3=1.13^n
take log of both sides
ln(3)=n ln(1.13)
n= ln(3)/ln (1.13) = 8.99 years
