The overhead cost that should be allocated to Zeta via activity-based costing is $356,000.

The following formula for determining the overhead cost allocated to Zeta:

= Zeta pool no 1 ÷ total pool no 1 × pool cost + zeta pool no 2 ÷ total pool no 2 × pool cost + zeta pool no 3 ÷ total pool no 3 × pool cost

= 2,800 ÷ 4,000 × $160,000 + 55 ÷ 100 × $280,000 + 750 ÷ 3,000 x $360,000

= $356,000

Therefore we can conclude that the overhead cost that should be allocated to Zeta via activity-based costing is $356,000.

Ugo [173]

Cost of equity is calculated as -

Cost of equity = Risk free return + Beta * (Market risk - Risk free return)

Given,

Risk free return = 5.3 %

Market risk = 12 %

Beta = 1.05

Cost of equity = 5.3 % + (1.05*(12-5.3%))

Cost of equity = 12.335 % or 12.24 %

NISA [10]

Answer:  

Adverse selection

                         

Explanation:

Adverse selection typically refers to such a circumstance when sellers possess knowledge that customers just don't have, about some type of quality of products — in other terms, it is a method of leveraging asymmetric data.

In other words, Asymmetric information, often referred to as intelligence loss, occurs when any group has better knowledge of data than any of the other group.

Thus, we can conclude that the warranty is given to ensure customers that nothing has been hidden from them.

Final Finishing is considering three mutually exclusive alternatives for a new polisher. Each alternative has an expected life o
valkas [14]

Answer:

1. 18.09%

2. 12%

3. 20.02%  

Explanation:

As the MARR is 15%, we will accept projects which have IRR more than 15%. As the projects are mutually exclusive, we will choose only one project.

An IRR (Internal Rate of Return) is the rate which makes the NPV (Net Present Value) = ZERO.

The formula to calculate IRR is: 0 = P0 + P1/(1+IRR) + P2/(1+IRR)2 + P3/(1+IRR)3 + . . . +Pn/(1+IRR)n where P0 = Initial cash outflow

And P1, . . . Pn equals the cash inflows in periods 1, 2, . . . n, respectively.      

1) IRR of project 1:

0 = -$20,000 + $4,465/(1+IRR)1 + $4,465/(1+IRR)2 + $4,465/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $4,465/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 18.09%

2) IRR of project 2:

0 = -$10,000 + $1,770/(1+IRR)1 + $1,770/(1+IRR)2 + $1,770/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $1,770/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 12%

3) IRR of project 3:

0 = -$15,000 + $3,580/(1+IRR)1 + $3,580/(1+IRR)2 + $3,580/(1+IRR)3 + . . . + $3,580/(1+IRR)10

Solving for IRR we have = 20.02%

We will choose project 3 as it has the highest IRR.
