Several years ago, The Wall Street Journal reported that the winner of the Massachusetts State Lottery prize had the misfortune

to be both bankrupt and in prison for fraud. The balance of the prize was $9,420,713, to be paid in 19 equal annual installments (There were 20 installments, but the winner had already received the first payment). The bankruptcy court judge ruled that the prize should be sold off to the highest bidder and the proceeds to be paid to the creditors. If the interest rate was 8%, how much would you have been prepared to bid for the prize

Answer:

the present value of the annuity = $4,523,638

Explanation:

this is an ordinary annuity:

annual payment = $9,420,713 / 20 = $471,035.65

number of periods = 19 periods

interest rate = 8%

therefore, the present value annuity factor = 9.6036

the present value of the annuity = $471,035.65 x 9.6036 = $4,523,637.97 ≈ $4,523,638

Valvano Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single, plantwide, predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The estimated total manufacturing overhead is closest to $550,000

Explanation:

Total manufacturing overhead = variable + fixed overhead absorbed

Fixed overhead absorbed = Overhead absorption rate × machine hour

Overhead absorption rate = Estimated overhead/Estimated machine hours

                               = $440,000/50,000 machine hours

                              = 8.8  per machine hour

Absorbed fixed overhead = $8.8 × 50,000= $440,000

Absorbed variable overhead= $2.20  × 50,000= $110000

Total manufacturing overhead = $440,000+ 110000 =$550,000

The estimated total manufacturing overhead is closest to $550,000

The following information relates to the manufacturing operations of the JNR Printing Company for the year: Beginning Ending Raw
grin007 [14]

Answer: $117,000

Explanation:

So we are to calculate the Raw Materials purchased during the year.

Logically speaking the following should hold,

Raw materials purchased during the year + beginning raw materials = ending Raw materials + Raw materials used

Agreeing on that and rearranging the formula we will have,

Raw Material purchased during the year = Raw Material used during the year + Ending Raw Material Inventory - Opening Raw Material Inventory

Slotting in the figures we will then have,

Raw Material purchased during the year = 114,000 + 56,000 - 53,000

= $117,000

Raw materials purchased during the year amount to $117,000.

At your future job, you get an unexpected raise from $50,000 a year to $75,000 a year. With the increased income, you decide to
seropon [69]

The Marginal propensity to consume is 0.4

Here, we are calculating the marginal propensity to consume (MPC).

Change in Income = New Income - Old Income

Change in Income = $75,000 - $50,000

Change in Income = $25,000

Change in Consumption = New Consumption - Old Consumption

Change in Consumption = $40,000 - $30,000

Change in Consumption = $10,000

Marginal propensity to consume = Change in Consumption / Change in Income

Marginal propensity to consume = $10,000 / $25,000

Marginal propensity to consume = 2/5

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.4

Therefore, the Marginal propensity to consume is 0.4.
