Lillian Fok is president of Lakefront Manufacturing, a producer of bicycle tires. Fok makes 1,000 tires per day with the following resources: Labor: 400 hours per day @ $12.50 per hour Raw material: 20,000 pounds per day @ $1 per pound Energy: $5,000 per day Capital costs: $10,000 per day a) What is the labor productivity per labor-hour for these tires at Lakefront Manufacturing? b) What is the multifactor productivity for these tires at Lakefront Manufacturing? c) What is the percent change in multifactor productivity if Fok can reduce the energy bill by $1,000 per day without cutting production or changing any other inputs?
Answer:
A) 2.5 bicycle tires per labor hour B) 0.025 dollars per bicycle tires C) It would mean an increase of 11.1% in the multifactor productivity.
Explanation: To calculate the productivity of labor per hour simply divide the total number of tires produced in 1 day with the total labor hour used (1000/400=2,5). To calculate the multifactor productivity, you have to sum the total cost of all resources labor, capital, raw material and energy, and divide the total output per the total cost of inputs (1000/40000=0.025). Finally, to calculate the impact of improvements in energy use, from 5,000$ per day to 1,000$, adjust the total cost of inputs by 4,000 (40,000-4,000=3,6000), divide production with the new cost (1,000/36,000=0.02777) and calculate the percentual change (0.0277-0.025/0.025=0.111)
Following her 18th birthday, Madison began investing $24 at the end of each week in an account earning 7% per year compounded weekly. She plans to continue making weekly investments until she turns 68. If she had waited until she turned 47, how much would she have to invest weekly in order to have the same retirement nest egg at age 68? Round to the nearest cent. (Hint: Find the size of the retirement nest egg, then use that to solve for CF under the shorter investment scenario)
Answer:
The answer is $26.80.
Explanation:
*Some inputs for the calculation as below:
One year period has 52 weeks
=> At the time she turns 68, she will have: (68-18) x 52 = 2,600 equal weekly cash flows; At the time she turns 47, she will have: (47-18) x 52 = 1,508 equal weekly cash flows.
* Present value of the investment plan lasting until she turns 68:
[ 24 / (7%:52) ] x [ 1 - (1+ (7%/52)^(-2,600) ] = $17,289.
* To have the same retirement nest egg at age 68, the present value of the investment plan lasting until she turns 47 should be equal to $17,289. Denote x is the weekly investment under the shorter investment scenario, we have:
[x / (7%:52) ] x [ 1 - (1+ (7%/52)^(-1,508) ] = $17,289 <=> x = $26.80.

Annual demand for a new assembled product is expected to be 80,000 units. Work content time for the product is 22.7 min. The assembly line operates 50 wk/yr, 40 hr/wk. Expected line efficiency is 95%. With one worker per station, determine (a) average hourly production rate, (b) cycle time, and (c) ideal minimum number of workers.
Answer:
average hourly production = 40 units
cycle time = 1.425 min
ideal minimum number of work = 16 worker
Explanation:
given data
annual demand for product = 80,000 units
Work content time = 22.7 min
work for week = 50 wk/yr
no of hr/week = 40 hr/wk
efficiency = 95% = 0.95
to find out
average hourly production rate and cycle time and ideal minimum number of worker
solution
we get here average hourly production rate that is express as
average hourly production = [tex]\frac{Da}{50H}[/tex] ........1
average hourly production = [tex]\frac{80000}{50*40}[/tex]
average hourly production = 40 units
and
cycle time is
cycle time = [tex]\frac{60*efficiency}{average\ hourly\ production}[/tex]
cycle time = [tex]\frac{60*0.95}{40}[/tex]
cycle time = 1.425 min
and
ideal minimum number of work is
W = minimum integer ≥ [tex]\frac{time}{cycle\ time}[/tex]
W = minimum integer ≥ [tex]\frac{22.7}{1.425}[/tex]
ideal minimum number of work = 15.93 = 16 workers

Assume the four major grocery stores in a large metropolitan area decide to meet secretly to fix prices for meat. It would be easiest to maintain this arrangement when:
Answer:
The correct answer is Option (3): The number of additional competitors is very small.
Explanation:
Competitors can come together to engage in price fixing, which is either a verbal or written agreement between the firms to either raise, lower or maintain prices of products at a given time. Some government laws encourage firms to set their own prices by themselves without any form of agreement with another firm in the same or similar line of business. Sometimes, these competitors can fix prices of goods in secret and these government bodies do term the act illegal.
These price fixing activities are usually being carried out effectively “in secrete” when other competitors are very small.

B. traditional accounting reports
C. performance analysis
D. the iceberg principle
E. TQM methods
Answer:
A. sales analysis
Explanation:
A sales analysis is a common breakdown of sales, where a company can see how many products or services has it sold over a given period of time.
Like cost analysis is useful for determining which costs can be cut down and which ones are justified, a sales analysis determines which product segment brings in the most revenue, creating an incentive for improvement.
A company has 525 shares of $50 par value preferred stock outstanding, and the call price of its preferred stock is $61 per share. It also has 21,000 shares of common stock outstanding, and the total value of its stockholders' equity is $716,625. The company's book value per common share equals: $33.29.
$31.80.
$32.88.
$34.13.
$32.60.
Answer:
$32.60
Explanation:
The formula and the computation is shown below:
Book value per share = (Total equity - preferred stock) ÷ (outstanding number of shares)
where,
Total equity is $716,625
Preferred stock would be
= 525 shares × $61
= $32,025
And, the outstanding number of shares is 21,000 shares
So, the book value per share would be
= ($716,625 - $32,025) ÷ (21,000 shares)
= ($684,600) ÷ (21,000 shares)
= $32.60
The Fed’s monetary policy tools directly impact the supply of money in a major way through their ______________.
Answer:
open market operation
Explanation:
Open market operation is the mechanism of Fed to alter money supply. To increase the money supply, Fed will buy financial securities such as Treasury bills from large banks or security dealers so there is more money deposit in the account of those who buy securities from Fed. Thus, there is more money available for loan hold by the banks resulting in an increase in the money supply. Fed does otherwise to reduce the money supply.

brainly.com/question/24403498
Final answer:
From least to most scarce, the items rank as follows: salt water, drinking water, and diamonds. Salt water is most abundant, followed by unevenly distributed drinking water and rare, luxurious diamonds.
Explanation:
Relative scarcity refers to how rare or common an item is compared to the demand for it. To answer the question on ranking the given items from least scarce to most scarce, we consider the global availability of salt water, diamonds, and drinking water. Here's the list, starting with the least scarce:
Salt Water: Abundant in oceans, but not drinkable without desalination.Drinking Water: Although there's enough fresh water for everyone, its distribution is uneven and often inaccessible or polluted, leading to scarcity in many areas.Diamonds: Though valuable, they are considered a luxury and are less available, making them the most scarce item on this list.The value of an item is often tied to its scarcity and the demand for it. While water is essential for life, the availability of drinkable water is less than that of salt water. Diamonds, due to their rarity and desirability, are considered more scarce than both forms of water.
Country A has a population of 1,000, of whom 800 work 8 hours a day to make 128,000 final goods. Country B has a population of 2,000, of whom 1,800 work 6 hours a day to make 270,000 final goods.a. Calculate each country's productivity and real GDP per person.b. Which country is better off?
Answer:
a) Productivity of country A = 20 goods per hour
Productivity of country B = 25 goods per hour
Real GDP per person for country A = 128 goods per person
Real GDP per person for country B = 135 goods per person
b) Country B is better off
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
For country A
Population = 1,000
Number of workers = 800
Number of working hour per day = 8
Final goods = 128,000
For country B
Population = 2,000
Number of workers = 1,800
Number of working hour per day = 6
Final goods = 270,000
Now,
(a) The Productivity is given as
= [ Total Output ÷ Total Productive Hours ]
Thus,
Productivity of country A
= [ 128,000] ÷ [ 800 × 8 ]
= 20 goods per hour
Productivity of country B
= [ 270,000 ] ÷ [ 1800 × 6 ]
= 25 goods per hour
and,
Real GDP per person = [ Final goods ] ÷ [ Population ]
Real GDP per person for country A
= 128000 ÷ 1000
= 128 goods per person
Real GDP per person for country B
= [ 270000 ] ÷ 2000
= 135 goods per person
(b) Since,
The Real GDP per person for country B is greater than the Real GDP per person for country A
Therefore,
Country B is better off
The productivity and real GDP per person for Country A and Country B were calculated and compared. It was found that County B has a higher productivity and real GDP per person making it the better off country based on these metrics.
Explanation:Productivity is calculated as the total output divided by the total input. For Country A, we calculate productivity as 128,000 final goods divided by (800 workers * 8 hours), which results in a productivity of 20 goods produced per man-hour. For Country B, we use the same method, and calculate productivity as 270,000 goods divided by (1,800 workers * 6 hours) which gives us a value of 25 goods produced per man-hour. Therefore, Country B is more productive on a per hour basis.
Real GDP per person is calculated as the total output divided by the population. For Country A, real GDP per person is calculated by dividing 128,000 goods by 1,000 residents, which equals 128 goods per person. For Country B, we calculate real GDP per person by dividing 270,000 goods by 2,000 residents, which equals 135 goods per person. Again, Country B is better off.
So, based on these calculations, Country B is more productive and has a higher real GDP per person. However, it's important to note that this calculation doesn't take other factors such as income inequality, environmental factors, etc into account.

Compute the annual dollar changes and percent changes for each of the following accounts. (Decreases should be indicated with a minus sign. Round percent change to one decimal place.) Current Year Prior Year Short-term investments $ 380,834 $ 240,061 Accounts receivable 103,020 106,337 Notes payable 0 94,802
Answer:
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
(A) (B) (A - B)
Current Year Prior Year Dollar change
Short-term investments $380,834 $240,061 $140,773
Accounts receivable $103,020 $106,337 -$3,317
Notes payable $0 $94,802 -$94,802
Now the percentage change would be
= (A - B) ÷ (B) × 100
For Short-term investments = 58.64%
For Accounts receivable = - 3.12%
For Notes payable = - 100%
Final answer:
To calculate the annual changes, subtract the prior year value from the current year value. Then divide that number by the prior year value and multiply by 100 to get the percent change. Results show increases in Short-term investments and decreases in Accounts receivable and Notes payable.
Explanation:
To compute the annual dollar changes and percent changes for each account, we subtract the prior year value from the current year value to get the dollar change. Then, we divide the dollar change by the prior year value and multiply by 100 to get the percent change.
For Short-term investments, the dollar change is $380,834 - $240,061 = $140,773. The percent change is ($140,773 / $240,061) * 100, which gives approximately 58.6%.For Accounts receivable, the dollar change is $103,020 - $106,337 = -$3,317 (a decrease). The percent change is (-$3,317 / $106,337) * 100, which gives approximately -3.1%.For Notes payable, the dollar change is $0 - $94,802 = -$94,802 (a decrease). Since there was no balance in the current year, the percent change is not applicable here.On January 1, 2017, Larkspur Company purchased $440,000, 10% bonds of Aguirre Co. for $407,614.

Bristlebird Corporation (E&P of $700,000) has 3,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Juan owns 1,500 shares and his wife, Roberta, owns 1,500 shares. Juan and Roberta each have a basis of $90,000 in their Bristlebird stock. In the current year, Bristlebird Corp. redeems 1,000 shares from Juan for $250,000. With respect to the distribution in redemption of the Bristlebird stock:
a. Juan has dividend income of $250,000
b. Juan has dividend income of $190,000
c. Juan has a capital gain of $250,000
d. Juan has a capital gain of $190,000
e. None of the above
Answer:
A: Juan has dividend income of $250,000
Explanation:
Related party = dividend (extent of E&P)
Juan has a capital gain of $190,000 because the redemption of stock is considered a sale, with the capital gain calculated as the difference between the selling price and his basis in the shares.
The correct option is 'd'.
To determine the nature of the transaction for Juan after Bristlebird Corp. redeems 1,000 of his shares for $250,000, we must consider the tax implications. Generally, a redemption of stock is treated as a sale or exchange, resulting in capital gain or loss, unless the redemption is essentially equivalent to a dividend, in which case it is treated as dividend income.
If the redemption qualifies as a sale, Juan's capital gain or loss is calculated as the difference between the selling price ($250,000) and the basis of the shares redeemed. Juan's basis in 1,000 shares would be (1,000/1,500) * $90,000 = $60,000. Thus, if the transaction qualifies as a sale, Juan would realize a capital gain of $250,000 - $60,000 = $190,000.
In this case, it is not stated that the redemption is treated as a dividend. Therefore, we assume the default treatment as a sale. So, based on the provided information, the correct answer would be 'd. Juan has a capital gain of $190,000'.

The diamond framework is NOT LIKELY to answer which of the following questions about competing on an international basis? A. Where will the foreign entrants come from?B. Which countries have the weakest foreign rivals?C. What are the attributes of a country's business environment?D. What location of value chain activities is most beneficial?E. What are the disadvantages of allowing foreign competition?E. What are the disadvantages of allowing foreign competition?
Answer:
E
Explanation:
The diamond framework is one of the five major strategic options for entering foreign markets and it is not likely to answer questions on What are the disadvantages of allowing foreign competition?
The diamond framework does not directly address the disadvantages of allowing foreign competition, as it is designed to analyze competitive advantages of nations. It focuses on where foreign entrants may originate, identification of weak foreign rivals, attributes of a country's business environment, and beneficial locations for value chain activities.
Explanation:The diamond framework is a conceptual model that helps to analyze the competitive advantages of nations, focusing primarily on four aspects: factor conditions, demand conditions, related and supporting industries, and firm strategy, structure, and rivalry. When considering the diamond framework, it is not likely to answer the question about the disadvantages of allowing foreign competition (E). This is because the framework is designed to assess and identify the competitive advantages of a country in the global marketplace, rather than focusing on the negative aspects of foreign competition.
Questions that the diamond framework can typically address include identifying where foreign entrants may come from, which countries have the weakest foreign rivals, the attributes of a country's business environment, and where along the value chain activities should be located to be most beneficial. Additionally, it might address overall patterns of international competition and trade, such as the attraction of capital and labor, and the economic impact of free market economies.

If new product is added next year, the increase in net operating income from this decision would be :A) 325,000 B) 200,000 C) 145,000 D) 135,000 E) None
Answer:
D) 135,000
Explanation:
The increase in net operating income would be
= Contribution margin per unit × number of units sold - production fixed cost - selling fixed cost - expected drop in contribution margin
= $130 × 2,500 units - $50,000 - $75,000 - $65,000
= $325,000 - $50,000 - $75,000 - $65,000
= $135,000
The contribution margin per unit would be
= Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit
= $304 - $125 - $49
= $130
The newshole ______. Group of answer choices
a. is news content (not space used by ads) that takes up about 35 to 50 percent of the space in a typical metropolitan daily newspaper
b. refers to those parts of the public agenda that are ignored by news media
c. refers to a story that is somewhat incomplete but printed anyway
d. is a form of yellow journalism

As per the recent reports by some agencies, famous newspapers like economic timer or new York times gives 35 percent to 50 percent space in their publish for the news content.
Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.
Final answer:
The newshole is the portion of a newspaper available for news content after advertising space is allocated, comprising about 35 to 50 percent of the newspaper's space.
Explanation:
The term newshole refers to the space in a newspaper or other publication that is available for news content after all the advertising content has been placed. The correct answer to the question is "The newshole is news content (not space used by ads) that takes up about 35 to 50 percent of the space in a typical metropolitan daily newspaper." Newspapers dedicate significant portions of their layout to advertisements, which finance their operations, and the remaining space, or newshole, is what's left for journalists to fill with news coverage. In the context of political coverage, factors such as pack journalism and a focus on campaign strategy over substantive reporting can influence the quality and depth of news content in this limited space.
Jobs that are grouped into the same pay grade should
a. be paid at different wage rates because the worth of these jobs to the organization may differ.
b. be paid within a range that may overlap with adjoining grades, so that an employee with experience can be paid as much as or more than a newer employee in a higher grade.
c. all receive the same wage rate in order to achieve equality.
d. be paid within a range that does not overlap with bordering job grades so that distinctions between grades are maintained.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": be paid within a range that may overlap with adjoining grades, so that an employee with experience can be paid as much as or more than a newer employee in a higher grade.
Explanation:
It is important within the work frame that job positions around almost the same level of wages consider the level of experience or the employees. Workers whose experience is greater should receive more compensations not only in gratitude for their years of collaboration but also as a way to motivate them to keep their work up. The wage should be equal or as close as the wage that the next grade employees perceive, new or not.
Pay grades are often designed to overlap with adjoining job grade ranges, enabling experienced employees to earn as much or more than newer employees in a higher grade. This approach encourages professional growth and job loyalty.
Explanation:Jobs that are grouped into the same pay grade should generally be paid within a range that may overlap with adjoining grades (option b). This allows for an employee with experience to earn as much or even more than a newer employee with a higher grade. This system helps to reflect the value of work experience and skill development and promotes employee loyalty and longevity.
Options a, c, and d can apply in certain situations, but they are not as commonly used or as flexible. Option A tends to undervalue certain roles, Option C might discourage professionalism and personal development, and Option D could potentially inhibit mobility within the company.

Will’s Whitewater Rafting sold 3 acres of land used in the business. The sales price was $6,000 and the adjusted basis of the land was $4,200. Will receives a down payment of $4,000 at the time of sale and the remaining $2,000 early next year. The realized gain on the sale is $___. Will’s recognized gain for the current year is $_____ and the gain recognized next year will be $_____.
a. 1,800;
b. 1,200 ($1,800/$6,000 = 30%; $4,000 x .30 = $1,200);
c. 600 (30% x $2,000 = $600)
Answer:a. 1,800;
b. 1,200 ($1,800/$6,000 = 30%; $4,000 x .30 = $1,200);
c. 600 (30% x $2,000 = $600)
Explanation:
In tax accounting, adjusted basis refers to the original cost, or the net cost of an asset, after adjusting various tax-related items normally reduced by depreciation deductions.
Given:
Selling Price(S.P) = $6,000
Adjusted Basis (A.B) = $4200
The gain realized from the sale of the land would be:
= S.P - A.B = $(6,000-4200)= $1,800
Now, we calculate the percentage profit on gain realized to enable ease of gain calculation for fragmented payments.
The percentage gain (P.G) is:
(S.P-A.B)/S.P * 100 = (6,000-1,800)/6000 * 100
P.G = (1,800/6,000) * 100 = 30%
Therefore we say that:
Recognized Gain on current year = Amount paid * P.G = $(4,000*0.3) = $1,200
And
Recognized Gain next year = Amount paid * P.G = $(2,000 * 0.3) = $600
Note: P.G is percentage gain.
Suppose that the MPC is 0.7, there is no investment accelerator, and there are no crowding-out effects. If government expenditures increase by $30 billion, then aggregate demand a. shifts rightward by $100 billion. b. shifts rightward by $51 billion. c. shifts rightward by $170 billion. d. shifts rightward by $72.8 billion.
Answer:
a. shifts rightward by $100 billion
Explanation:
Step 1. Given information.
MPC = 0.7
Step 2. Formulas needed to solve the exercise.
Impact in the aggregate demand = 1 / (1-mpc) * total increase expenditures.
Step 3. Calculation.
Impact in the aggregate demand = 1 / (1-0.7) * 30 million = 100 billion
Step 4. Solution.
What actually occurs is that if government increases its expenditures, this means that the output levels in the economy will increase.
Thus, aggregate demand curve will shift right the overall increase by 100 billions.
