Select the correct answer.

Corporation has two manufacturing departments--Casting and Customizing. The company used the following data at the beginning of

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Allocated overhead= $37,260

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total

Estimated total machine-hours (MHs) 10,000

Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $38,000

Estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $4.3

<u>First, we need to calculate the plantwide predetermined overhead rate:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (38,000/10,000) + 4.3

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $8.1 per machine-hour

<u>Now, we can allocate overhead to Job G:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Job G

Casting machine-hours 1,600

Customizing machine-hours 3,000

Allocated overhead= 8.1* (1,600 + 3,000)= $37,260

Which is an example of something that is inelastic?

sweet-ann [11.9K]

-Inelastic means that the consumers will still purchase the product at the same rate despite price changes.
-The answer would be cancer medication, because the consumer would still need to buy this regardless of price. Even if it puts them in a financial bind.
-When having your on a car or watch, if the price of that item increases, you could be less likely to buy it.
-When picking out a hamburger at a restaurant, the customer is most likely to by a cheaper burger if they are on a budget.

Imagine that you invest $100,000 in an account that pays 5.9% annual interest compounded monthly. What will your balance be at t

kodGreya [7K]

The compound interest formula is: $A= P(1+ \frac{r}{n} ) ^{nt}$
Where:
A is the amount you will have.
P is the money you are investing.
r: is the interest rate (in decimals)
n: number of times the interest is compounded per year
t: time (in years)

The first thing is converting the rate from percentage to decimal:
$\frac{5.9}{100} = 0.059$

Since the interest is compounded every month and a year has 12 months n=12.

Now we can replace the values in our formula:
$A=100000(1+ \frac{0.059}{12} ) ^{(12)(18)}$

We can simplify the exponents to get:
$A=100000(1+ \frac{0.059}{12} ) ^{216}$

Finally, we can use our calculator to get 288463.33

After 18 your balance in your bank account will be $288463.33

For a differentiation strategy to strengthen a company's strategic position and boost its competitive advantage, ______.

Tanya [424]

For a differentiation strategy to maintain a company's strategic situation and increase its competitive advantage an increase in value creation much surpass the increase in costs.

<h3>How does a differentiation strategy benefit in gaining a competitive advantage?</h3>

Differentiation gives a party two advantages:

-It can allow the firm to charge a premium price for its good or service, should it choose to do so.

-It can help the firm to grow overall need and capture market share from its rival.

A generic strategy attempts to convince clients to pay a premium price for its good or services by supplying unique and desirable features. Using a differentiation strategy suggests that a firm is contesting based on uniqueness, rather than price.

Consider a small country that is closed to trade, so its net exports are equal to zero. The following equations describe the eco

inna [77]

Answer:

1. Aggregate output demanded is $500 billion. True.

Aggregate Demand (Y) = C + G + I

Y = 40+0.9∗DI + 80 + 20

Y = 40 + 0.9 ∗ (Y−100) + 80 + 20

Y = 50 + 0.9Y

0.1Y = 50

Y = $500 billion

2. Suppose the government decides to increase spending by $10 billion without raising taxes. Because the expenditure multiplier is 10. True.

Expenditure Multiplier = 1 / ( 1 - Marginal Propensity to Consume)

Marginal Propensity to Consume = 0.9 as per the Consumption function.

= 1/ ( 1 - 0.9)

= 10

2. b. this will increase the economy's aggregate output demanded by $100 billion. True.

Change in Aggregate output = Increase in government expenditure * expenditure multiplier

= 10 billion * 10

= $100 billion

3. ... In this case, the economy's aggregate output demanded is $500 billion . True.

Aggregate Demand (Y) = C + G + I

Y = 40+0.9∗DI + 80 + 20

Y = 40 + 0.9 ∗ (0.80∗Y) + 80 + 20

Y = 140 + 0.72Y

0.28Y = 140

Y = $500 billion

4. Given an income tax of 20%, the expenditure multiplier is approximately 3.6. True.

As a result of the new tax, the MPC will become;

= 0.9 * ( 0.80 * Y)

= 0.72Y.

Expenditure Multiplier = 1 / ( 1 - Marginal Propensity to Consume)

= 1/ ( 1 - 0.72)

= 3.57

= 3.6

4. b. Therefore, if the government decides to increase spending by $10 billion without raising tax rates, this would increase the economy's aggregate output demanded by approximately $36 billion. True.

Change in Aggregate output = Increase in government expenditure * expenditure multiplier

= 10 billion * 3.6

= $36 billion

5. A $10 billion increase in government purchases will have a larger effect on output under a fixed tax of $100 billion. True.

When the tax was fixed, an increase in Government purchases of $10 billion resulted in an increase in Aggregate output of $100 billion. When the Government switched to income taxes however, a $10 billion increase in Government spending led to a significantly lesser increase in Aggregate output of $36 billion.
