Answer:
the total productivity decreased from 1.66 to 1.53 due to the decreased in the productivity of the labor( from 6.67 to 5.5) and raw materials (from 5.71 to 4.88)
Explanation:
productivity is defined as the ratio of the output to input.
partial measures is defined as the ratio of the output to the single input or it is the ratio of the output to the labor or the ratio of the output to capital.
total measure is the ratio of the goods or services produced to all the inputs used in producing them.
LAST YEAR:
total productivity =
partial productivity for labor =
partial productivity for capital =
partial productivity for raw materials =
THIS YEAR:
total productivity=
partial productivity for labor= 5.5
partial productivity for capital = 4.4
partial productivity for raw materials = 4.88
Answer:
Ke = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)
Ke = 4.3 + 1.12(13.2 - 4.3)
Ke = 4.3 + 1.12(8.9)
Ke = 4.3 + 9.968
Ke = 14.268%
Explanation:
In this question, there is need to calculate cost of equity based on capital asset pricing model. Cost of equity is a function of risk-free rate plus beta multiplied by the difference between market return and risk free rate.
Answer: more; externality; market power.
Explanation:
Bakers are much (more) likely to supply pastries to the market if property rights are not enforced.
a. A manufacturing plant dumps chemical waste into a nearby river, poisoning the water supply for a small town downstream. - Externality
Externality, refers to the benefit s or costs that someone else incurs based on the economic decision of another person. In this case, this is a negative externality as the small town bears the cost of the production activities of the company.
b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity - Market power
Market power is when a firm is able to dictate the price and can then raise the price. This brings about the reduction in output as well. Since the single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state, the company is enjoying monopoly power or market power.
Answer:
C) $201,760
Explanation:
To compute the amount of cash proceeds, we have to multiply the bonds face value with the issued price percentage.
Since only issue price is given, so we assume it is in percentage form because the number of shares is not given in the question. So, we assume this.
In mathematically,
Cash proceeds = Face value × 0.97
= $208,000 × 0.97
= $201,760
Answer:
A. $194, 035
Explanation:
Predetermined Manufacturing overhead Rate = Estimated total overheads / Estimated direct labor hours
Predetermined Manufacturing overhead Rate = $176,000 / 13,700
Predetermined Manufacturing overhead Rate = $12.85 / direct labor hour
Actual Labor hours = 15,100 hours
Manufacturing overhead allocated = $12.85x 15,100
Manufacturing overhead allocated = $194,035
The correct option is A. $194, 035
