Answer:

Every time a dollar is deposited into a bank account, a bank's total reserves increases. The bank will keep some of it on hand as required reserves, but it will loan the excess reserves out. When that loan is made, it increases the money supply. This is how banks “create” money and increase the money supply.

Kropf Inc. has provided the following data concerning one of the products in its standard cost system. Variable manufacturing ov
Ratling [72]

Answer:

a) The materials price variance 19026.33 unfav

b) Material Quantity Variance= $ 267 Unfav

c) Direct Labor Rate variance= $ 6127 Unfav

d) Direct labor Efficiency variance= 7710 Fav

e) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= 13099 fav

f) Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= 3256.25  unfav

Explanation:

<em>First We find the missing figures such as standard quantity ,hours allowed , actual price, rate. Then we list the formulae to use. After that we put in the values of the amounts in the formulae to get the results. Unfavorable variances are those in which the actual quantities are greater than the standard quantities or input .</em>

Kropf Inc.

Given Standards

Direct materials 9.30 liters $ 8.90 per liter

<em>Standard Quantity allowed = 9.3 * 11500= 106950 Litres </em>

Direct labor 0.70 hours $ 25.70 per hour

Variable manufacturing overhead 0.70 hours $ 7.80 per hour

<em>Standard Hours Allowed </em>= $ 0.7 *11500= 8050

Actual Results Given

Actual output 11,500 units

Raw materials purchased 107,900 liters

Actual cost of raw materials purchased $ 979,500

<em>Actual Price</em><em>=</em> Cost/ Purchases=  $ 979,500/107,900 = $9.08

Raw materials used in production 106,980 liters

Actual direct labor-hours 7,750 hours

Actual direct labor cost $ 205,302

<em>Actual Rate</em><em>=</em>$ 205,302 / 7,750 = $ 26.49

Actual variable overhead cost $ 55,414

Actual Overhead Rate= $ 55,414/7,750 = $ 7.15

<u>Formulae to use </u>

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

<u>Working</u>

1)The materials price variance = (Actual Price * Actual Quantity)- (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)

The materials price variance = ( $9.08*106,980 )- ($ 8.90 *106,980)

The materials price variance = (971148.38)- (952122)=19026.33 unfav

2) Material Quantity Variance= (Standard Price * Actual Quantity)-(Standard Price * Standard Quantity)

Material Quantity Variance=($ 8.90 *106,980)-($ 8.90 *106,950)= $ 267 Unfav

3) Direct Labor Rate variance= (actual hours* actual rate)- (actual hours * standard rate)

Direct Labor Rate variance= ( 7,750*$ 26.49)- (7,750*$ 25.70)= $ 6127 Unfav

4) Direct labor Efficiency variance= (actual hours* standard rate)- (standard hours * standard rate)

Direct labor Efficiency variance=(7,750*$ 25.70)-(8050*$ 25.70)= 7710 Fav

5) Variable Overhead Rate Variance= Actual Variable Overhead- Standard Variable Overhead

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414-(7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)

Variable Overhead Rate Variance=$ 55,414- 42315= 13099 fav

6)Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance=( Actual Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)-( Standard Hours * Standard Variable Overhead Rate)

Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance= (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.80)- (7,750*0.70 * $ 7.15)=42315- 38788.15= 3256.25  unfav

If the elasticity of demand for Good A is −3, a 33 percent decrease in quantity demanded of Good A results from a(n) ________ in
velikii [3]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Elasticity of demand for Good A = −3

Percentage decrease in quantity demanded for Good A = 33%

Elasticity of demand for Good A = Percentage change in quantity demanded for Good A ÷ Percentage change in price of Good A

-3 = - 33 ÷ Percentage change in price of Good A

Percentage change in price of Good A = (-33) ÷ (-3)

                                                                 = 11%

Therefore, percentage increase in price of good A is 11%.

The present value, today, of the terminal (perpetuity) value equity cash flow that begins in 7 years is $6,700,000 assuming a co
nignag [31]

Answer:

2.83%

Explanation:

P0 = $6,700,000

Cost of equity Ke = 8%

So, value of this perpetuity 6 years form now is  P6 = P0*(1+Ke)^6

= $6,700,000*(1.08)^6

= $6,700,000*1.58687432294

= $10632057.96

Free cash flow at year 7 (FCF7) = $550,000

So, using constant growth model, g = Ke - FCF7 / P6

g = 0.08 - 550000/10632057.96

g = 0.08 - 0.05173034

g = 0.02826966

g = 2.83%

Thus, the growth rate required for the continuation value (terminal value perpetuity) term is 2.83%.

saw5 [17]

Answer:

the next best alternative bundle of goods and services that could be provided.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost can be described as the cost of what was given up in order to carry out a particular activity. It is the next best alternative bundle of goods and services that could be provided. It is also known as implicit cost and it is used in calculating economic profit.

Economic profit = Accounting profit - Opportunity cost

The monetary cost expressed in reals (Brazilian currency) is the explicit cost.

Explicit cost is the actual cost incurred in carrying out an activity.

Accounting profit = Total revenue - Explicit cost
