When an import tariff is imposed on an intermediate good, producers of this immediate good in the nation will ____________ while the producers that use the intermediate good as an input will ________. Get better off, get better off Get better off, get worse off Get worse off, get better off Get worse off, get worse off
Answer:
get better off
get worse off
Explanation:
Import are goods or services produced in other countries that are brought into a country.
Import tariff is a form of tax imposed on imported goods. import tariff increases the price of import. the purpose of import is to discourage import
Intermediate good are goods used in the production of finished. An example of an intermediate good is raw materials
When an import tariff is imposed on an intermediate good, producers that use the intermediate goods would be worse off because the price of intermediate goods needed for production would increase as a result of the tariff. This would increase their cost of production and reduce their profit margins
While the producers of the intermediate good in the country would be better off because they would face less foreign competition. Also, they would benefit from the increased price of the intermediate good. This would increase their profit margins.
Gibson Corp. owned a 90% interest in Sparis Co. Sparis frequently made sales of inventory to Gibson. The sales, which include a markup over cost of 25%, were $420,000 in 2017 and $500,000 in 2018. At the end of each year, Gibson still owned 30% of the goods. Net income for Sparis was $912,000 during 2018. Assuming there are no excess amortizations associated with the consolidation, and no other intra-entity asset transfers, what was the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest for 2018
Answer:
$907,200
Explanation:
Calculation for the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest for 2018
First step is to calculate the Gross profit rate
Using this formula
Gross profit rate = gross profit + COGS = GPR/ (1-GPR)
Let plug in the formula
Gross profit rate= 25%/(1+25%) = 0.2
intra-entity gross profit = Transfer price x GPR (0.2)
Gross Profit 2017= $84,000 x 30%
Gross Profit 2017= $25,200;
Gross Profit 2018= 100,000 x 30%
Gross Profit 2017= $30,000
Now let calculate 2018 net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest Using this formula
2018 net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest =Subsidiary’s net income + Intra-entity Gross Profit in Ending Inventory for 2017 – Intra-entity grossprofit in 2018 inventory deferred x noncontrolling interest
2018 net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest = ($912,000) + ($25,200) – ($30,000) *10%
= $907,200
Therefore the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest for 2018 is $907,200

Delisa Corporation has two divisions: Division L and Division Q. Data from the most recent month appear below: Total Company Division L Division Q Sales $490,000 $125,000 $365,000 Variable expenses 288,800 62,500 226,300 Contribution margin 201,200 62,500 138,700 Traceable fixed expenses 111,650 34,790 76,860 Segment margin 89,550 $ 27,710 $ 61,840 Common fixed expenses 36,910 Net operating income $ 52,640 The break-even in sales dollars for Division Q is closest to:
Answer:
Break-even point (dollars)= $202,263.16
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Division Q:
Sales= $365,000
Total variable costs= 226,300
Fixed costs= 76,860
To calculate the break-even point for Division Q, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 76,860 / [(365,000 - 226,300) / 365,000]
Break-even point (dollars)= 76,860 / 0.38
Break-even point (dollars)= $202,263.16

BBB Leasing purchased a machine for $390,000 and leased it to Jack Tupp Auto Repair on January 1, 2021. Lease description: Quarterly rental payments $24,408 at beginning of each period Lease term 5 years (20 quarters) No residual value; no BPO Economic life of machine 5 years Implicit interest rate 10% Fair value of asset $390,000 What is the balance in the lease payable account after the April 1, 2021, lease payment
Answer:
$350,324
Explanation:
total lease liability = $390,000
since the first payment is made on January 1, the carrying of lease liability = $390,000 - $24,408 = $365,592
the interest expense for the 3 months = $365,592 x 10% x 3/12 = $9,139.80 ≈ $9,140
carrying value of lease liability after second payment = $365,592 - ($24,408 - $9,140) = $365,592 - 15,268 = $350,324
The market for bell peppers is perfectly competitive and currently has an equilibrium price of $3 and the number of bell pappers traded is 6. Suppose the government imposes a price floor of $1 on this market. What will be the size of the shortage in this market
Well, the price would increase by 1 dollar, so the shortage would be 2 less.
There should be no shortage.
What is a price floor?
It is the minimum price where the producer should charge also at the same time it should be binding and considered effective. In the case when the price floor should be above the equilibrium price so it should be the surplus while on the other hand if the price floor is below the equilibrium price so that means it is no surplus. Also, the shortage is not possible

You are the manager of a pizzeria that produces at a marginal cost of $6 per pizza. The pizzeria is a local monopoly near campus (there are no other restaurants or food stores within 500 miles). During the day, only students eat at your restaurant. In the evening, while students are studying, 3 faculty members eat there. If students have an elasticity of demand for pizzas of -4 and the faculty has an elasticity of demand of -2, what should your pricing policy be to maximize profits?
Answer:
since the price elasticity of demand for students is -4, the the price charged to them should be:
price = [-4 / (-4 + 1)] x $6 = (-4 / -3) x $6 = $8
since the price elasticity of demand for faculty is -2, the the price charged to them should be:
price = [-2 / (-2 + 1)] x $6 = (-2 / -1) x $6 = $12

Suppose a farmer in Georgia begins to grow peaches. He uses $1,000,000 in savings to purchase land, he rents equipment for $90 comma 000 a year, and he pays workers $110 comma 000 in wages. In return, he produces 300 comma 000 baskets of peaches per year, which sell for $3.00 each. Suppose the interest rate on savings is 1 percent and that the farmer could otherwise have earned $45 comma 000 as a shoe salesman. What is the farmer's economic profit? The peach farmer earns economic profit of $nothing . (Enter your response as an integer.)
Answer:
Economic profit =$645,000
Explanation:
Economic profit is the difference between revenue and out of pocket expenses plus opportunity cost.
Opportunity cost is the value of the benefit sacrificed in favour of a decision. It is the value of the next best alternative forgone in favour of a decision.
For example, the opportunity cost of the farmer is the interest rate he would have earned had he invested the money in savings account plus the salary forgone as a salesman
Economic profit = Revenue - out-of-pocket expenses - opportunity cost
Opportunity cost = interest foregone + salary forgone
= (1% × $1,000,000) + 45,000 = 55,000
Out of pocked trading expenses = 110,000 + 90,000 = $200,000
Revenue = $3 × 300,000 = $900,000
Economic profit = 900,000 -200,000-55,000= $645,000
Economic profit =$645,000

The per unit manufacturing cost under absorption costing is
Answer:
$40
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The per unit manufacturing cost under absorption costing is
The per unit manufacturing cost under absorption costing= $15 + $12 + $1 + ($720,000 / 60,000)
The per unit manufacturing cost under absorption costing= $15 + $12 + $1 +$12
The per unit manufacturing cost under absorption costing= $40

Suppose recent regulatory reforms relating to credit rating agencies are perceived to improve the reliability and accuracy of credit ratings of corporate bonds. Imagine further that you manage a corporation interested in issuing new bonds, in addition to past issues by the firm that already trade in the market. Identify one way in which your firm might lose and one way in which it might gain from these regulatory reforms. Explain.
Answer:
If the new reforms bring increase confidence of the investors then the company will have to incur lower borrowing costs as the investor will be available and vice versa.
Explanation:
Suppose that previously our company's credit rating was overrated. Due to recent regulatory reforms, my company achieved a lower credit rating and hence the investor confidence in our company dropped significantly. Now the investor is not interested to invest in my company and to urge them to invest in the company, they will be offered higher interest. If the reforms are going to impact our credit rating adversely then the borrowing cost will increase and vice versa.
Furthermore, Core Principle 3 says that the decsion making of the investor is based on the information that is readily available to him. This means if the reforms increase the access of the borrower through improved credit rating then it will be favourable for the company in terms of lower borrowing costs. If the reforms decrease the access of the borrower through depreciating credit rating then it will adversely affect the company in terms of lower borrowing costs and lower investment access.
Bauer Manufacturing uses departmental cost driver rates to allocate manufacturing overhead costs to proudcts. Mnaufacturing overhead costs are allocated on the the bases of Macine hours in the Machining Department on the bases of direct labor hours. In the Assembly Department. At the beginning of 2018, the following estimates were provided for the coming year:
Machining Assembly
Direct labor - hours 40,000 40,000
Machine - hours 50,000 20,000
Direct labor costs $500,000 $900,000
Manufacturing overhead costs $280,000 $360,000
The accounting records of the company show the following data for Job #316
Machine Assembly
Direct labor - hours 120 65
Machine - hours 50 5
Direct material cost $425 $175
Direct labor cost $275 $300
WHat are the total manufacturing costs for Job #316
Which of the following are correct? (Please show ALL calculations)
A. $2,040
B. $1,960
C. $1,175
D. $1,440
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Total manufacturing cost = direct material cost + direct labor cost + manufacturing overhead cost
Where
Direct material cost = Machining direct material cost + assembly direct material cost
= $425 + $175
= $600
The direct labor cost = Machining direct labor cost + Assembly direct labor cost
= $275 + $300
= $575
The machining overhead cost = Manufacturing overhead costs / Machine hours
= $280,000 / 50,000
= $5.6
So, cost = $5.6 × 50 = $280
Assembly overhead cost = Manufacturing overhead costs / direct labor hours
= $360,000 / 20,000
= $18
So, the cost = $18 × 65 = $1,170
= $600 + $575 + $280 + $1,170
= $2,625

Minstrel Manufacturing uses a job order costing system. During one month, Minstrel purchased $226,800 of raw materials on credit; issued materials to production of $219,000 of which $37,200 were indirect. Minstrel incurred a factory payroll of $164,400, of which $47,200 was indirect labor. Minstrel uses a predetermined overhead application rate of 150% of direct labor cost. Minstrel's beginning and ending Work in Process Inventory are $17,900 and $31,800 respectively. Compute the cost of jobs transferred to Finished Goods Inventory.
Answer:
$460,900
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of jobs transferred to Finished Goods Inventory is shown below:
= beginning wip + Direct material + direct labor + manufacturing overhead - closing wip
= $17,900 + ($219,000 - $37,200) + ($164,400 - $47,200) + 150% of $117,200 - $31,800
= $17,900 + $181,800 + $117,200 + $175,800 - $31,800
= $460,900

Fixed manufacturing costs are $51 per unit, and variable manufacturing costs are $153 per unit. Production was 81,000 units, while sales were 76,140 units. a. Determine whether variable costing operating income is less than or greater than absorption costing operating income. b. Determine the difference in variable costing and absorption costing operating income.
Answer:
Part a.
Yes, variable costing operating income is less than or greater than absorption costing.
Part b.
$247,860
Explanation:
The difference between variable costing operating income and absorption costing operating income lies in the fixed costs deferred in inventory.
The profit in both method is the same if and only if there is no inventory. That means units produced equal units sold (Production = Sales)
The absorption costing method includes fixed manufacturing cost in determining product costs whereas the variable costing method only accounts for variable manufacturing cost.
When the units produced are greater than units Sold (Production > Sales) , Fixed Costs in Inventory increases this means absorption profits will be greater than Variable costing profit as Fixed costs in inventory value reduces cost of sales in absorption costing.
Difference in variable costing and absorption costing operating income.
Difference = (81,000 - 76,140) x $51
= $247,860

The export business in China is growing. Uncle George, who has just returned from a trade expo in Shanghai, has informed you that the port authority of Ningbo expects the demand to reach the same level as Shanghai. The port authority of Ningbo is now deciding how to change its system to accommodate this surge in demand. They have two options, (a) to retire their existing x-ray machine and buy an x-ray machine similar to the one used by the Shanghai port, or (b) to buy another x-ray machine similar to the one they already own and therefore operate the system with two similar machines. Both the options will cost the port authority of Ningbo the same. Purely from the perspective of reducing lead-time, is (a) or (b) better for you? Please show your detailed analysis.
Answer:
Assuming that the capacity of the new X-ray machine is the same as the capacity of two older machines, the difference results from the number of units waiting in line (queue). You would need two different groups of workers to move the containers into the correct position if you use the two older machines, while you need only one group to move them to the new machine. This decreases lead time since coordinating work also requires time, it might be a short time, but it is more time at the end of the day.

You have just purchased a municipal bond with a $10,000 par value for $9,500. You purchased it immediately after the previous owner received a semi-annual interest payment. The bond rate is 6.6% per year payable semi-annually. You plan to hold the bond for 4 years, selling the bond immediately after you receive the interest payment. If your desired nominal yield is 3% per year compounded semi-annually, what will be your minimum selling price for the bond?
Answer:
Minimum selling price for the bond = $11350.38
Explanation:
Given - You have just purchased a municipal bond with a $10,000 par
value for $9,500. You purchased it immediately after the previous
owner received a semi-annual interest payment. The bond rate is
6.6% per year payable semi-annually. You plan to hold the bond for
4 years, selling the bond immediately after you receive the interest
payment. If your desired nominal yield is 3% per year compounded
semi-annually.
To find - What will be your minimum selling price for the bond?
Proof -
Formula for Bond value is -
Bond value = [tex]\frac{Coupon Amount}{( 1+ Interest rate)^{1} } + \frac{Coupon Amount}{( 1+ Interest rate)^{2} } + \frac{Coupon Amount}{( 1+ Interest rate)^{3} } + .....\frac{Coupon Amount}{( 1+ Interest rate)^{n} }[/tex]
As given,
Coupon Rate = 6.6%
⇒Coupon Rate for semi-annual = 3.3%
and hereby time period becomes double i.e 8 years.
Now,
Interest rate = 3%
For semi-annual , interest = 1.5%
Now,
Coupon amount = 10,000×3.3% = 330
Now,
Bond value = 330 ×PVIF(1.5% , 8) + 10,000×IVAF(1.5%, 8)
= 330×7.486 + 10,000×0.888
= 11350.38
∴ we get
Minimum selling price for the bond = $11350.38

Each of the 65,000 bonds was issued with 15 detachable stock warrants, each of which entitled the bondholder to purchase, for $26, one share of $1 par common stock. At the time of sale, the market value of the common stock was $31 per share and the market value of each warrant was $4. Prepare the journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds. (Enter your answers in millions rounded to 1 decimal place (i.e., 5,500,000 should be entered as 5.5). If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Answer:
Dr Cash $ 67.6 million
Dr Discount on bonds payable
$ 1.3 million
Cr Bonds payable 65million
Cr Equity-stock warrants outstanding $3.9million
Explanation:
Preparation of the journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds
Dr Cash $ 67.6 million
(65,000,000 * 104/100 = $ 67.6 million)
Dr Discount on bonds payable
$ 1.3 million
($65million+$3.9 million-$67.6million)
Cr Bonds payable 65 million
Cr Equity-stock warrants outstanding $3.9million
($4× 15 warrants × 65,000 bonds = $3.9million)
(Being To record issuance of bonds)
Which one of the following is the reason that bonds may sell at a discount or premium?
A. The market yield rate fluctuated between the time the bond agreement was written and the date the bonds were actually issued to investors
B. Market conditions caused the coupon rate of interest to change between the time the bond agreement was written and the date the bonds were actually issued to investors
C. The bond issuer failed to consider the market yield rate when the bond agreement was created
D. The bond issuer adjusted the coupon rate to match that of other bond issues
Answer:
A. The market yield rate fluctuated between the time the bond agreement was written and the date the bonds were actually issued to investors
Explanation:
Interest rate changes and changes in the market price of outstanding bonds have an inverse relationship. If the market rate of interest is more than coupon rate than the bonds are sold at discount to match the market interest rate and if the coupon rate is more than market rate than bonds are sold at premium for match the market rate of interest.
Coupon rates one decided than there is no change in the life time of the bonds but market rate are always changing and because of this the bonds are sell at discount or premium.
Ramon and Sammy are working on a group homework assignment. The homework consists of a set of essay questions and a set of questions on graphing models. Ramon can finish an essay question in about 15 minutes and a graphing question in about 30 minutes. Sammy can finish an essay question in about 20 minutes and a graphing question in about 35 minutes. Assume that Ramon and Sammy produce the same quality answers. Calculate Ramon and Sammy's opportunity cost of each task. Please round each answer to the nearest tenth.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
It is given that Ramon would completed an essay question in approx 15 minutes and for graphing question it finished approx 30 minutes
On the other hand Sammy would completed an essay question in approx 20 minutes and for graphing question it finished approx 35 minutes
a) Ramon's opportunity cost of completing an essay question is
= 15 ÷30
= 0.5 graphing question
b) Ramon's opportunity cost of completing a graphing question is
= 30 ÷ 15
= 2 essay question
c) Sammy's opportunity cost of completing an essay question is
= 20 ÷ 35
= 0.57 graphing question
d) Sammy's opportunity cost of completing a graphing question is
= 35 ÷ 20
= 1.75 essay question
