Answer:

B. The portfolio expected rate of return must be the same for each economic state.

Explanation:

Variance formula = sum of (probability x (r - mean)^2)

r= expected return

if the expected return would be same for each economic state then the mean would equal to expected return which ultimately will give variance zero ( as r-mean would be 0).

Hence the correct option is B. The portfolio expected rate of return must be the same for each economic state.

Using the estimated sales and production of 140,000 boxes of Chap-Off, the Accounting Department has developed the following man
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Silven Industries

If Silven buys its tubes from the outside supplier, it will be able to avoid $1.10 of its own Chap-Off manufacturing costs per box

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated Production and Sales Units of Chap-Off = 140,000 boxes

Manufacturing cost per box:      Avoidable costs

Direct material              $ 3.70           $0.74 ($3.70 * 20%)

Direct labor                      2.00             0.20 ($2.00 * 10%)

Manufacturing overhead 1.60              0.16 ($1.60 * 10%)

Total cost                      $ 7.30            $1.10

Outside supplier's price for tubes = $1.20 per box

b) Unless there an alternative use for the machine used in making the tubes internally exists, it may not be cost-effective for Silven to buy from the outside supplier.  Alternatively, it should renegotiate a price per box that is less than $1.10 in order to stop making the tubes internally.

Candlewood LLC started business on September 1, and it adopted a calendar tax year. During the year, Candlewood incurred $6,500
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

deduction for organizational expenses = $5,000

Explanation:

Since the total startup costs are over $50,000 then the company's deduction will be lower. Generally speaking, a company can deduct up to $5,000 in organizational an startup costs ($5,000 each). But if the costs are over $50,000, then your deduction will be reduced by $1 for each dollar over that threshold.

In this case, organizational costs were $9,500, so they can deduct $5,000 during the first year and $4,500 will be amortized over the next 15 years. Startup costs are $54,500, which means that they can only deduct $5,000 - ($54,500 - $50,000) = $500 during the first year. The remaining $54,000 must be amortized over a 15 year period. Total deduction during the first year = $5,000 + $500 = $5,500
