Answer:
b. Increase by $17,000
Explanation:
For computing the change in the operating income, first we have to determine the cost by make and buy options
Make options:
= Variable cost + fixed cost
= $70 + $60
= $130
Buy options:
= Outside supplier cost + fixed cost × remaining percentage
= $77 + $60 × 60%
= $77 + $36
= $113
So, the difference of cost would be
= $130 - $113
= $17
And, the operating income would be
= Number of units make in each year × cost difference
= 1,000 units × $17
= $17,000
Answer:
e. any of the other answers can occur.
Explanation:
The reason for the decision above is variances are not dependent on the direct material quantity variance and the calculation of all is differ. We also know the total direct material variance is total of material quantity & price variance that is because total variance may be favorable or unfavorable.

Answer:
<u>equity and efficiency</u>
Explanation:
Under the tax system there is no tax on losses. And also the losses can be carried forward and set off to profits in future.
When profits are earned the taxes are paid. After that the remaining profit is either distributed to equity or retained for future purposes.
The more efficiently the company works, higher will be the profit and higher will be the taxes.
As profit is for equity, and from that share the amount is given to tax authorities, which is some part of income, share of equity to tax.
Though it does not provide for right in company, but it is legal to pay the tax.
That is the price you pay for increasing or decreasing efficiency, in the form of income available for equity.
Answer:
6.80%
Explanation:
The average nominal returns is the sum of the returns for 5 years divided by the number of returns considered( i.e 5, 5 returns for 5 years)
average nominal returns=(6%-13%+24%+18%+15%)/5
average nominal returns=10.00%
The Fisher's equation is shown thus:
(1 + i) = (1 + r) (1 + π)
i=nominal return=10.00%
r=average real return=the unknown
π=inflation rate=3%
(1+10.00%)=(1+r)*(1+3%)
1.10=(1+r)*1.03
1+1=1.10/1.03
r=(1.10/1.03)-1
r=6.80%
