Answer:

The budgeted material purchase cost for the first quarter would be $626,500

Explanation:

In the first quarter , the consumption of material for pair of ski would be equal to ,

= production required x raw materials required per unit

=  57,000 x 2

= 114,000 kg

In the second quarter , the consumption of materials for pair of ski would be equal to ,

= production required x raw materials required per unit

= 48,000 x 2

= 96,000 kg

As per the question company expects to end raw material inventory equal to 25% of the next quarters material needs , so

= 25% x consumption requirement of second quarter

= 25% x 96,000

= 24,000 kg

given that the beginning inventory for his material is 28,500 and we have taken out closing inventory ( 24,000 kg ) , so with this purchase can be taken out

Consumption = Opening inventory + Purchase - Closing inventory

94,000 = 28,500 + Purchase - 24,000

Purchase = 89,500 kg

Now multiplying this purchase with the cost per kg we will get the budgeted material purchase cost

= 89,500 x 7

= $626,500

Answer:

Cost of purchase for first quarter = $766,500  

Explanation:

Total production of current quarter = 57,000 pairs

Raw material required for above = 57,000 X 2 kg per pair = 114,000 kg

Less: Opening inventory of raw material 28,500 kg = 114,000 - 28,500 = 85,500 kg required for quarter 1

Also provided that closing inventory shall be 25% of total raw material required for next quarter.

Raw material required in second quarter = 48,000 pairs X 2 kg each = 96,000 kg

25% of above = 96,000 X 25% = 24,000 kg

Total raw material to be purchased in current quarter that is first quarter = 85,500 kg + 24,000 kg = 109,500 kg

Rate not provided assumed to be same as of opening inventory that is $7 per kg, therefore cost of purchase for first quarter = 109,500 kg X $7 = $766,500

Jenna used the vendor bid analysis .

Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Vendor Bid Analysis is the tool of evaluating the proposals received by many suppliers to determine the cost of such a project. This can be done by taking into account the risk provided for project works (through quotations, deals, proposals, etc.).

The buyer's side can take account of documents from existing agreements, meeting qualitative needs, capability and infrastructure, establishing time limits for records, financial capacity, and services when analyzing the offers of a good or service.

This is not an official offer to purchase the property, but rather a public declaration that the seller isn't satisfied with the last offer which is used to keep the deal on track.

A homebuyer wishes to finance the purchase with a $95,000 mortgage with a 20-year term. What is the maximum interest rate the bu
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

0.811% per month is the amximum rate it can affor

or 9.732% annual rate with monhly compounding.

Explanation:

We have to solve for the rate at which the monthly payment equals 900 dollars.

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 900.00

time 240

rate r

PV $95,000.0000

900 \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-240} }{r} = 95,000\\

Given the complexity of the formula we solve using excel or a financial calcualtor

we write on a1 =PV(A2;240;95000)

on a2 we write any number between 0 and 1

then we use goal seek tool adn define that we want A1 to be 95,000 by changing A2 (which is the argument for rate)

the value of A2 after this is our answer:

900 \times \frac{1-(1+0.00811)^{-240} }{0.00811} = PV\\

PV $95,000.0000

Lists two things that both increase the money supply?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Decrease is taxes

Increase in government spending

Explanation:

Government policies that increases the money supply in an economy is known as expansionary fiscal policy. They are:

1. Decrease is taxes - when government reduces the tax rate, the amount paid as taxes falls and as a result individuals, companies have higher disposable income whuch can be used for consumption or saving. This increases the money supply in the economy.

2. Increase in government spending - if the government increases it's spending on public goods for example, money supply would increase. If the government constructs a road, labour would be employed and paid wages. This payment increases the income of Labour and money supply increases.

Central bank policies that increases money supply are known as expansionary monetary policies. They include:

1. Open market purchase: The central bank purchase securities from the open market to increase money supply.

2. Reduction in reserve requirement ratio : if the reserve requirement ratio is reduced , commercial banks would have more money to give out as loans and this would increase money supply.
