Answer:

The increase in gross profit is  $12,374.93

Explanation:

The increase in sales due to purchasing this new equipment is 25% of current sales figure of $750,000

increase in sales=$750,000*25%=$187,500

variable cost on the increase in sales is 55%=$187500 *55%=$103,125

The annual depreciation charge on the new equipment=cost of the new equipment-salvage value/useful life

cost of the new equipment is $357,500.37

salvage value is $0

useful life of the new equipment is 5 years

annual depreciation charge=($357,500.37-$0)/5=$ 71,500.07  

Increase/(decrease) in annual gross profit=$187,000-$103,125-$ 71,500.07  =$12,374.93

A lot of estimates go into the final calculation to determine market size, and each component needs to be as precise as possible
natulia [17]

True, A  lot of estimates go into the final calculation to determine market size, and each component needs to be as precise as possible. Otherwise, the errors in the estimation get compounded.

What does market size actually mean?

  • The total number of prospective customers for a good or service inside a certain market, along with the potential revenue from those sales, make up the "market size."
  • For a number of reasons, it's critical to determine and comprehend market size.

What is an example of market size?

  • For instance, a shoe company might find 100,000 people who are interested in its product, but data on income and accessibility reveals that only half of them have the resources to make a purchase.
  • The market that is open in that situation has 50,000 potential customers.

11. If you want to have a return for your Final Portfolio (that is invested between Optimal Risky portfolio and Risk Free Securi
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Note: First of all, this question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to calculate this question. However, I have found the similar question on the internet with complete data given. Additionally, I have shared that data as well in the attachment below for your convenience, Thanks.

Solution:

SD = Standard Deviation

Using utility function, E(R) = Rp - 0.005 x A x SD^{2} = 1.34 - 0.005 x 3x 4.06^{2}

Using utility function, E(R) = 1.093%

If the weight in the risky portfolio is let's say, "a" then,

weight in the risk-free asset = 1 - a

So,

E(R) = a x Rp + (1 - a) x Rf

1.093% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.50%

Solving for "a"

a = 70.56% - weight in risky portfolio

and 1 - a = 29.44% - weight in risk-free asset.

Similarly, if you want a return of 1.10%,

we can follow the above steps and get

1.1% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.5%

Weight in risky portfolio,

a = 71.43%

weight in risk-free asset,

1 - a = 28.57%

Jessep Corporation has a standard cost system in which manufacturingoverhead is applied to units of product on the basis of dire
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Standard fixed overhead rate

= Budgeted fixed overhead cost

  Budgeted direct labour hours

= $45,000

  15,000 hours

= $3 per direct labour hour

Fixed overhead volume variance

= (Standard hours - Budgeted hours) x Standard fixed overhead rate

= (12,000 hours - 15,000  hours)  x $3

= $9,000(U)

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

In this case, we need to calculate standard fixed overhead rate, which is budgeted fixed overhead cost  divided by budgeted direct labour hours. Then, we will calculate fixed overhead volume variance, which is the difference between standard hours and budgeted hours multiplied by standard fixed overhead rate.
