A right of possession to one-eighth of the property is what each of the eight

grandchildren will receive.

In cases where there is no will which specifies ownership then the estate will

have to be shared equally between the parties involved. They can however

do what they want with the share allocated to them.

In cases where there is no will and no relative, then it goes to the state. This

case involves eight grandchildren and it gives them the right to own one-

eighth of the property as a result of equal sharing.

Nutech Corp. is expecting the following cash flows—$79,000, $112,000, $164,000, $84,000, and $242,000—over the next five years.

Alja [10]

Answer:

$429,560

Explanation:

Present value will be calculated through the PV formula,

$PV = \frac{C1}{1+r} + \frac{C2}{(1+r)^{2} } + \frac{C3}{(1+r)^{3}} + \frac{C4}{(1+r)^{4}} + \frac{C5}{(1+r)^{5}}$

r = 15%

C1 = $79,000 ,C2 = $112,000 ,C3 = $164,000 ,C4 = $84,000 ,C5 = $242,000

Substituting the values in the formula,

$PV = \frac{79,000}{1.15} + \frac{112,000}{(1.15)^{2} } + \frac{164,000}{(1.15)^{3}} + \frac{84,000}{(1.15)^{4}} + \frac{242,000}{(1.15)^{5}}$

PV = 68,695.66 + 84,688 + 107,838 + 48,030.2 + 120,338.14

PV = $429,560

The present value of the cash flows of Nutech Corp. over the next five years is $429,560.

Telecom Co. enters into a two-year contract with a customer to provide wireless service (voice and data) for $40 per month.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The answer is: C) There are two distinct performance obligations: the wireless service and the phone.

Explanation:

Performance obligation refers to a promise made by a company to deliver a good or service to a customer. A series of goods or services that are very similar and are transferred at the same time to a customer can be considered as one single performance obligation.

For example, the voice service and the data service are considered one single wireless service. But the cellphone is totally different so it has to be considered a separate performance obligation.

Erie company manufactures a mobile fitness device called the jogging mate. the company uses standards to control its costs. the

scoray [572]

Answer:

Standard Hours Standard Rate per Hour Standard Cost

24 minutes (0.4 hrs.) $5.40 $2.16

During August, 8,390 hours of direct labor time were needed to make 19,600 units of the Jogging Mate. The direct labor cost totaled $43,628 for the month.

1. What is the standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to makes 19,600 Jogging Mates?

19,600 jogging mates x 0.4 hours = 7,840 hours

2. What is the standard labor cost allowed (SH × SR) to make 19,600 Jogging Mates?

7,840 hours x $5.40 = $42,336

3. What is the labor spending variance?

labor spending variance = standard cost - actual cost = $42,336 - $43,628 = $1,292 unfavorable

4. What is the labor rate variance and the labor efficiency variance?

labor rate variance = (standard rate - actual rate) x actual hours = ([$5.40 - ($43,628/8,390 hours)] x 8,390 hours = ($5.40 - $5.20) x 8,390 hours = $0.20 x 8,390 = $1,678 favorable
labor efficiency variance = (standard hours - actual hours) x actual rate = (7,840 hours - 8,390 hours) x $5.20 = -550 hours x $5.20 = -$2,860 unfavorable

Linda loves buying shoes and going out to dance. Her utility function for pairs of shoes, S, and the number of times she goes d

padilas [110]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Given

$U(S,T) = 2ST$

$M_U_S =2T$

$M_U_T=2S$

The following details are omitted from the question

$P_S= \$50$ --- Price of the Shoes

$P_T = \$50$ --- Spent on dancing

$B = \$500$ --- Budget on shoe and dancing

Solving (a): Her budget line

First, we determine her budget equation (B).

This is calculated by:

$B = P_S * S + P_T *T$

This gives:

$500 = 50 * S + 50 * T$

$500 = 50 S + 50 T$

Divide through by 50

$10 =S + T$

$S + T = 10$ --- The budget equation

<em>See attachment for the budget line equation</em>

Solving (a): Optimal Consumption Bundle Point

First, we determine the marginal rate of substitution (MRS) using:

$MRS = \frac{MU_s}{MU_t} = 1$

$MRS = \frac{2S}{2T} =1$

This implies that:

$\frac{2S}{2T} = 1$

Cross Multiply

$2S = 2T * 1$

$2S = 2T$

Divide by 2

$S = T$

Substitute T for S in the budget equation

$T + T= 10$

$2T = 10$

$T=5$

Recall that:

$S = T$

$S = 5$

So, the point if optimal consumption bundle is (5,5)

Unemployed persons are unable to find work and become so discouraged that they completely give up searching for jobs. When these

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The correct answer is: increase.

Explanation:

Unemployment is the state in which a person does not have a job and is not currently looking for one. It is also defined as the state in which a person who is actively searching for employment is unable to find work. The most frequently sided measure of unemployment is the Unemployment Rate. This is the number of unemployed people divided by the number of people in the labor force.

Thus, if more people become discouraged by not finding a job and they stop searching, the <em>Unemployment Rate is likely to increase</em>.
