Otool Inc. is considering using stocks of an old raw material in a special project. The special project would require all 150 ki

lograms of the raw material that are in stock and that originally cost the company $2,236 in total. If the company were to buy new supplies of this raw material on the open market, it would cost $8 per kilogram. However, the company has no other use for this raw material and would sell it at the discounted price of $7.10 per kilogram if it were not used in the special project. The sale of the raw material would involve delivery to the purchaser at a total cost of $86 for all 150 kilograms. What is the relevant cost of the 150 kilograms of the raw material when deciding whether to proceed with the special project?

Answer:

The relevant cost of the 150 kilograms of the raw material when deciding whether to proceed with the special project: $979.

Explanation:

We do not use the original cost $2,236 because it is sunk cost.

We do not use market value because Otool Inc. does not either incur this cost nor sacrifice any benefit from not buying at market price.

The relevant cost of these raw material should be the benefit sacrificing from not selling the raw material, instead using it in the project; calculated as:

Selling price x Amount sold - Cost of delivery = 7.1 x 150 - 86 = $979.

Thus, the answer is $979.

Walt has a $300,000 listing at 8% commission. An agent from another firm sold the listing. Walt has a 70% commission split with
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

$8,400

Explanation:

total commission = $300,000 x 8% = $24,000

50% co-brokerage split = $24,000 x 50% = $12,000

Walt's commission = $12,000 x 70% = $8,400

the 70% commission split between Walt and his broker means that Walt keeps 70% of the commission and the broker keeps 30%.

total commission is split between the two firms because the Walt's listing was sold by another firm.

Although the unemployment rate is the single best indicator of how well the labor market is working, we discussed in class that
shepuryov [24]

The unemployment rate is not considered to be a complete measure because it does not count discouraged workers.

<h3>How is the unemployment rate calculated?</h3>

The unemployment rate includes only people who are still actively searching for work and they have to be in the labor force.

People who have looked for jobs for a while and then got discouraged and given up, are not counted as unemployed which therefore depresses the unemployment rate.

A company purchases inventory on terms of net 30 days and resells to its customers on terms of net 15 days. The inventory conver
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The company's cash conversion cycle is 75 days

Explanation:

The conversion cycle is the number of days that a business takes to convert its investment in inventory into cash flowing from the purchase and sales of the business.

Conversion cycle = Payable days + Inventory in Stock days + Receivable days

where

Payable days = Purchases term  = 30 days

Inventory in stock = Number of days until inventory remains unsold = 60 - 30 days = 30 days ( As payable days are already included in inventory conversion days )

Receivable days = Sales term = 15 days

Placing values in the formula

Conversion cycle = 30 days + 30 days + 15 days

Conversion Cycle = 75 days
