Answer:

c. causes firms to fight for scarce capital investments.

Explanation:

"As with any startup, green-field investments entail higher risks and higher costs associated with building new factories or manufacturing plants. Smaller risks include construction overruns, problems with permitting, difficulties in accessing resources and issues with local labor.

Companies contemplating green-field projects typically invest large sums of time and money in advance research to determine feasibility and cost-effectiveness."

Our basketball team has finished $80\%$ of its season, during which we won $40\%$ of the games we played. What percent of the re

masya89 [10]

Answer:

90%

Explanation:

Let x be the total number of matches,

Given,

80% of games were finished,

So, the number of finished games = 80% of x = 0.8x

∴ Remained games= x - 0.8x = 0.2x

Now, 40% of 80% of games were won,

So, the winning games in 0.8x matches = 40% of 0.8x

= 0.4 × 0.8x

= 0.32x

In order to finish games with the same number of wins as losses,

Winning percentage in all games must be 50%,

Thus, the total winning games = 50% of x = 0.5x

Let y be the winning percentage in 0.2x games,

So, the total winning games in 0.2x games = $\frac{y\times 0.2x}{100}$

∵ Number of winning matches in 80% games + number of winning matches in 20% = total winning matches

⇒ $0.32x + \frac{0.2xy}{100}= 0.5x$

$\frac{0.2xy}{100}=0.18x$

$0.2y=18$

$\implies y=90$

Hence, the percent of winning the in the remaining games must be 90%.

Calculating the Predetermined Overhead Rate, Applying Overhead to Production, Reconciling Overhead at the End of the Year, Adjus

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated:

Overhead $160,000

Direct labor hours 80,000

Han uses normal costing and applies overhead based on direct labor hours.

For January, direct labor hours were 8,150.

By the end of the year, Han showed the following actual amounts:

Overhead $166,000

Direct labor hours 79,600

Assume that the unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold for Han was $176,000.

1) Predetermined overhead rate= total estimated overhead for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined overhead rate=160000/80000= $2 per hour

2) Applied overhead (January)= Predetermined overhead rate*actual hours= 2*8150= $16,300

3) Applied overhead for the year= 2*79600= $159,200

Over/under applied= actual overhead - applied overhead= 166000 - 159200= 6800 underapplied

4) COGS= 176000

Underapplied overhead= 6800

COGS adjusted= $182,800
