Answer:
COGS= $886,530
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary production cost:
unitary production cost= direct material + direct labor + allocated overhead
unitary production cost= (6*2) + (2.9*21) + (2.9*10)
unitary production cost= $101.9
Now, the cost of goods sold:
COGS= number of units sold*unitary production cost
COGS= 8,700*101.9
COGS= $886,530

*Laundry Detergent
*Refrigerators
*Lumber
*Pineapples
*Video Games
*Watches
*Coffee
*Shoes
*Football Helmets
*Pencils
Narrow your research by selecting a brand or company that manufactures or distributes one of the products listed above. For example, not all shoes come from the same country, manufacturer, distributor, or are distributed alike. Select a brand of shoes you are familiar with and begin the search. The goal is to trace the process from production to consumer.
Answer and Explanation:
The distribution of laundry detergent can happen in two ways. The first way, occurs with a distribution of the factory direct to the retailers of a country. These retailers, receive the detergents, store large inventories and send them to smaller stores, within a given region. This type of distribution has a lower economic cost, which causes the detergent to be sold at lower prices.
The second form of distribution occurs with the use of intermediaries between factories and retailers. These intermediaries are the wholesalers, they receive the product from the factories forming large stocks, which will be distributed to retailers, who in turn, will distribute the product to stores. This process makes the product more expensive, making the price higher.

Merge the three marketing teams of each SBU into a single marketing division serving all product lines.
Explanation:
The marketing department is not a product-based team. Therefore, a marketing team should not be tied to just one SBU. The SBU structure can be continued. But the combination of the marketing teams into a single group creates synergy, avoids effort duplication, reduces competitiveness among the various teams, and above all, helping the group' brand managers to utilize accumulated resources, knowledge,and information of the entire marketing organization for the benefit of the different SBUs.

Mr. Doe is a postsecondary teacher, and Mrs.Smith is a teaching assistant.
Mrs. Smith is a high school teacher, and Mr. Doe is a teaching assistant.
Mr. Doe is a high school teacher, and Mrs. Smith is a teaching assistant.
Answer:
Mrs. Smith is a postsecondary teacher, and Mr. Doe is a teaching assistant.
Explanation:
Mrs. Smith gives the lectures, sets the due dates, and is an expert on the material of a "college-level course", therefore, she has to be a postsecondary teacher, as the teacher is responsible for giving the lectures, and has to be an expert on the material.
Mr. Doe helps grade papers, offers tutoring sessions for the students, and attends the lectures. From my experience and the phrase "helps grade papers" rather than just "grades the papers", we can conclude that Mr. Doe is the teaching assistant.

Answer:
are like a private tax that redistributes income from consumers to monopoly sellers.
Explanation:
A monopoly is a market structure which is typically characterized by a single-seller who sells a unique product in the market by dominance. This ultimately implies that, it is a market structure wherein the seller has no competitor because he is solely responsible for the sale of unique products without close substitutes. Any individual that deals with the sales of unique products in a monopolistic market is generally referred to as a monopolist.
For example, a public power company is an example of a monopoly because they serve as the only source of power utility provider to the general public in a society.
The higher prices charged by monopolists are like a private tax that redistributes income from consumers to monopoly sellers because the consumers are left with no choice than to patronize these monopolists for essential goods and services since they are the only seller.

An amount of $4400 will be recognized as accounts receivable, net on the balance sheet as of November 30.
What is accounts receivable?The money that clients owe our business for goods or services for which invoices have been issued is known as accounts receivable. On the balance sheet, current assets are listed as the total amount of all accounts receivable, which includes bills from clients for goods or services provided to them on credit.
First of all, the order received from Douglas High School has not been delivered by the end of November ,hence the value of the order is irrelevant for the purpose of calculating net accounts receivable at the end of November.
However, out of the goods of $5000 sold to Culver Middle School, goods worth $600 has been returned as defective, leaving a balance of $4400 ($5000-$600).
For Culver to be entitled to the discount of 2% they should have made payment by 24th November, which never happened.
Therefore, the balance of accounts receivable will remain at $4400.

Honey Bell Corporation has the following information about its Eclipse Product: Honey Bell Corporation Eclipse Product Expected Sales 10,000 units Direct material and labor costs $ 150 per unit Variable manufacturing overhead $ 20 per unit Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 300,000 Fixed selling and administrative expenses $ 150,000 Average operating assets $ 2,000,000 Required return on investment 20 % What is the amount of the markup percentage on the absorption cost that should be used to derive the selling price of this product
Answer:
Mark- up = 23.3%
Explanation:
Absorption costing is method of costing where overheads are charged to units produced using volume-based bases. e.g machine hours, labour hours e.t.c. Units are valued using full cost per unit
Full cost per unit= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + Variable production overhead + Fixed production overhead
Fixed production overhead = Budgeted overhead/Budgeted production units
Fixed production overhead = $300,000/150,000 units=2
Total cost = 150 + 20 + 2= $172
Total cost per unit using absorption costing = $172
Desired ROI = 20%. × 2,000,000= $400,000
Profit per unit = 400,000/10,000 units =40
Mark- up = Profit/Cost = 40/172× 100 = 23.3%
Mark- up = 23.3%

You are considering acquiring a common share of Sahali Shopping Center Corporation that you would like to hold for 1 year. You expect to receive both $1.65 in dividends and $25 from the sale of the share at the end of the year. The maximum price you would pay for a share today is __________ if you wanted to earn a 11% return.
Answer:
Present value = $24.009009 rounded off to $24.01
The maximum price that should be paid for a share today is $24.01
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the stock today that should be paid, we can use the discounted cash flow approach. It calculates the value of stock today based on the present value of future values of cash flows that are expected from the stock. Thus the present value of a stock that is expected to pay a dividend and sell for a given price in 1 year can be calculated as follows,
Present Value = [D1 + P1] / (1+r)
Where,
D1 is the next dividend expected from the stock P1 is the price of the stock in 1 yearr is the required rate of returnPresent value = [1.65 + 25] / (1+0.11)
Present value = $24.009009 rounded off to $24.01

Investing $2,000,000 in TOM's Channel Support Systems initiative will at a minimum increase demand for your products 3.0% in this and in all future rounds. (Refer to the TOM Initiative worksheet in the CompXM Decisions menu.) Looking at the Round 0 Inquirer for Andrews. last year?s sales were $163,189,230. Assuming similar sales next year. the 3.0% increase in demand will provide $4,895,677 of additional revenue. With the overall contribution margin of 34.1%. after direct costs this revenue will add $1,669,426 to the bottom line. For simplicity, assume that the demand increase and margins will remain at last year's levels. How long will it take to achieve payback on the initial $2,000,000 TQM investment, rounded to the nearest month?
a) TOM investment will not have a significant financial impact
b) 5 months
c) 14 months
d) 10 months
Answer:
c) 14 months
Explanation:
Initial investment = $2,000,000
Revenue = $1,669,426
Profit = $2,000,000 - $1,669,426 = $330,574
Payback period = 1 + [Profit/Revenue]
Payback period = 1 + [$330,574/$1,669,426]
Payback period = 1 + 0.198017
Payback period = 1.198017 years
Payback period = 1.198017 * 12 months
Payback period = 14.376204 months
Payback period = 14 months approximately.

Hide answer choices
A C) elastic
B D) perfectly elastic
C B) inelastic
A) perfectly inelastic
Answer:
Perfectly inelastic
Explanation:
A demand is perfectly inelastic when quantity demanded does not change in response to a change in price.
An increase in price caused no change in quantity demanded. Thus, demand must be perfectly inelastic. Hence, option D is correct.
What is perfectly inelastic?A good or service whose demand is completely inelastic would not change regardless of price; nevertheless, such a good or service does not exist. Inelastic is the antithesis of elastic, which sees significant differences in demand when the price varies.
Fully elastic and perfectly inelastic are the two elasticity extremes. The quantity falls to zero as the price changes, which is referred to as being perfectly elastic. If the quantity is totally inelastic, a change in the price has no effect on it at all.
People's willingness to pay any price to obtain a life-saving drug is an example of perfectly inelastic demand.

Answer:
P0 = $45.299899 rounded off to $45.30
Explanation:
The dividend discount model (DDM) can be used to calculate the price of the stock today. DDM calculates the price of a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under DDM is,
P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]
Where,
D1, D2, ... , Dn is the dividend expected in Year 1,2 and so ong is the constant growth rate in dividendsr is the discount rate or required rate of returnP0 = 22 / (1+0.19) + 15 / (1+0.19)^2 + 6 / (1+0.19)^3 + 3.2 / (1+0.19)^4 +

an Corporation of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 9,100,000 $ 21,000,000 Net operating income $ 455,000 $ 1,470,000 Average operating assets $ 2,275,000 $ 10,500,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 12%. Compute the residual income for each division.
Answer:
Part 1 - ROI
In terms of Margin :
Division Osaka = 20 %
Division Yokohama = 14 %
In terms of Turnover :
Division Osaka = 400 %
Division Yokohama = 200 %
Part 2 - Residual Income
Division Osaka = $182,000
Division Yokohama = $210,000
Explanation:
Return on investment (ROI) = Divisional Profit Contribution / Assets Employed in the division x 100
In terms of Margin :
Division Osaka = $ 455,000 / $ 2,275,000 x 100 = 20 %
Division Yokohama = $ 1,470,000/ $ 10,500,000 x 100 = 14 %
In terms of Turnover :
Division Osaka = $ 9,100,000 / $ 2,275,000 x 100 = 400 %
Division Yokohama = $ 21,000,000/ $ 10,500,000 x 100 = 200 %
Residual income = Controllable Profit - Cost of Capital Charge on Controllable Investment
Therefore,
Division Osaka = $ 455,000 - $ 2,275,000 x 12 % = $182,000
Division Yokohama = $ 1,470,000 - $ 10,500,000 x 12 % = $210,000

If you are entering a negative number include a minus sign. a. Suppose the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) for a nation is 0.9. What is the tax multiplier for this nation
Answer: -9
Explanation:
The Tax multiplier of a nation shows how much the aggregate demand of an economy will change if there is a change in taxes.
It is calculated by the formula:
= -MPC / ( 1 - MPC)
= -0.9 / (1 - 0.9)
= -9
If taxes are reduced, aggregate demand would increase by 9 times.
