Answer:

The income elasticity of demand for frozen dinners is negative when there is an increase of hourly wages. -51%

Explanation:

When the income elasticity is negative it means that the good is inferior so when the income is increased, the demand of the good decrease beacuse its demand change to a better quality good. For instance in this case a fresh meal.

income elasticity % = % change in quantity / % change in income

(((3350-3550)/3550)/((20-18)/18))*100

Answer:

$55,500

Explanation:

The computation of the net realizable value after the write off entry is show below:

The credit balance in allowance with terms to bad debts is

= $4,500 - $4,000

= $500

Now the net realizable value is

= ($60,000 - $4,000) - ($4,500 - $4,000)

= $56,000 - $500

= $55,500

Hence, the same is to be considered

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

a. Expected rate of return on the project = 10%

b. Project's standard deviation of returns = 10.95%

c. Project's coefficient of variation (CV) of returns = 1.10

d. The type of risk does the standard deviation and CV measure is referred to as the total risk of the project.

e. he risk is relevant when there is a need to assess the influence of the market and internal factors on the project.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of Expected Rate of Return on the Project and Variance of Returns.

a. What is the expected rate of return on the project?

From the attached excel file, we have:

Expected rate of return on the project = Total of Expected Return Rate = 10%

b. What is the project's standard deviation of returns?

From the attached excel file, we have:

Project's variance of returns = Total of (P * D^2) = 1.20%

Therefore, we have:

Project's standard deviation of returns = Project's variance of returns^0.5 = 1.20%^0.5 = 10.95%

c. What is the project's coefficient of variation (CV) of returns?

Project's coefficient of variation (CV) of returns = Project's standard deviation of returns / Expected rate of return on the project = 10.95% / 10% = 1.10

d. What type of risk does the standard deviation and CV measure?

The type of risk does the standard deviation and CV measure is referred to as the total risk of the project.

Total risk is a metric that indicates all of the risks that come with accepting a project.

e. In what situation is this risk relevant?

The risk is relevant when there is a need to assess the influence of the market and internal factors on the project.

Bonita Company has a factory machine with a book value of $87,800 and a remaining useful life of 5 years. It can be sold for $32
qwelly [4]

Answer: Old machine should be replaced.

Explanation:

The variable manufacturing cost will reduce by:

= 624,000 - 524,000

= $100,000

Over a period of 5 years this will be:

= 100,000 * 5

= $500,000

Selling the old machine would bring in $32,000:

= 500,000 + 32,000

= $532,000

The cost of the new machine would reduce this gross benefit by:

= 532,000 - 455,100

= $76,900

<em>Net income will increase by a total of $76,900 over the 5 year period if the new machine is bought so it should be bought. </em>
