Answer:
Option (D) is correct.
Explanation:
Initial price = $7
Initial quantity supplied = 4,500
New price = $9
New quantity supplied = 5,500
Percentage change in Quantity supplied:
= (Change in quantity supplied ÷ Initial quantity supplied) × 100
= [(5,500 - 4,500) ÷ 4,500] × 100
= (1,000 ÷ 4,500) × 100
= 0.22 × 100
= 22%
Percentage change in price:
= (Change in price ÷ Initial price) × 100
= [($9 - $7) ÷ $7] × 100
= ($2 ÷ $7) × 100
= 0.2857 × 100
= 28.57%
Therefore, the price elasticity of supply is as follows:
= Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ Percentage change in price
= 22 ÷ 28.57
= 0.77
Hence, the price elasticity of supply of oranges is inelastic, since it is less than 1.
Answer:
$209
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the service cost component of pension expense for the year ended December 31
Projected benefit obligation, December 31 500
Add Benefit payments to retirees, December 31 $61
Less Interest cost ($32)
(10%$320)
Less Projected benefit obligation, January 1 ($320)
Service cost $209
($500+$61-$32-$320)
Therefore the service cost component of pension expense for the year ended December 31 will be $209
Answer:
P0 = $14.4683 rounded off to $14.47
Explanation:
To calculate the market price of the stock today, we will use the constant growth model of DDM. The constant growth model calculates the values of the stock today based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
- D0 is the dividend today
- g is the constant growth rate
- r is the required rate of return on the stock
We first need to calculate r using the CAPM equation. The equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rM is the return on market
r = 0.06 + 1.6 * (0.147 - 0.06)
r = 0.1992 or 19.92%
Using the price formula for DDM above, we can calculate the price today to be,
P0 = 1.9 * (1+0.06) / (0.1992 - 0.06)
P0 = $14.4683 rounded off to $14.47
Answer:
Cost of goods sold= $32300
Explanation:
The cost of goods sold refers to the direct costs attributable to the production of the goods sold in a company. This amount includes the cost of the materials used in creating the goods along with the direct labor costs used to produce the goods. It excludes indirect expenses, such as distribution costs and sales force costs.
COGS=Beginning Inventory+Production during period−Ending Inventory
COGS= $16,100 + 35,500 - $19,300= $32300
Answer:
Profit earned=$21,000
Explanation:
Manufacturing Cost total=direct material +direct manufacturing+ Total Manufacturing overhead
Direct Material=$3500
Direct manufacturing =$2800
Total Manufacturing overhead=(($2800/12)*18)
Total Manufacturing overhead=$4200
Manufacturing Cost total=$3500+$2800+$4200
Manufacturing Cost total=$10,500
Profit earned=($11,000-$10,500)*42
Profit earned=$21,000
