Answer: a. I and II only
Explanation:
Money is neutral which means that even if you change to supply of money in an economy, it will not translate to an increase in GDP because only the nominal values of things will change (as a result of inflation) while the real values of things like GDP will remain the same.
Increasing the growth of money supply by printing money would also cause inflation in the long run because the money will lose its value like goods do when their supply is increased even though demand does not. A weaker currency needs more units to buy a good which is where the inflation will come from.
As operations manager, you are concerned about being able to meet sales requirements in the coming months. You have just been given the following production report: JAN FEB MAR APR Units produced 2,250 1,750 2,750 2,950 Hours per machine 318 194 393 315 Number of machines 5 7 6 5 Find the average of the monthly productivity figures (units per machine hour).
Answer: 2.81 per hour
Explanation:
Average monthly productivity = (January productivity + February productivity + March productivity + April productivity) / 4
January productivity:
= Units produced / ( Hours per machine * Number of machines )
= 2,250 / ( 318 * 2 )
= 3.537
February productivity:
= 1,750/ ( 194 * 4 )
= 2.255
March productivity:
= 2,750 / ( 393 * 3 )
= 2.332
April productivity:
= 2,950/ ( 315 * 3)
= 3.121
Average monthly productivity = (3.537 + 2.255 + 2.332 + 3.121)/ 4
= 2.81 per hour
Dobles Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing system:
Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Total Activity
Assembly $228,060 18,000 mahcine hours
Processing orders $34,068 1200 orders
Inspection $125560 1720 inspection hours
The company makes 420 units of product D28K a year, requiring a total of 460 machine-hours, 80 orders, and 10 inspection-hours per year. The product's direct materials cost is $48.96 per unit and its direct labor cost is $25.36 per unit.
According to the activity-based costing system, the unit product cost of product D28K is closest to:
a. $95.34 per unit
b. $93.60 per unit
c. $74.32 per unit
d. $89.93 per unit
Answer:
Hence the correct option is option (a) i.e. $95.34 per unit.
Explanation:
Cost of 420 units of D28K product = 460 machine hour cost + 80 order cost + 10 inspection hour cost + 420 direct materials cost + 420 direct labor cost.
18000 machine hours = 228060
so 460 machine hours = 228060 x 460 /18000 = 5828.2
1200 orders = 34068
80 orders = 80 x 34068 / 1200 = 2271.2
1720 inspection hours = 125560
10 inspection hours = 10 x 125560/1720 = 730
So cost of 420 units of D28 products = 5828.2 + 2271.2 + 730 + 420 x 48.96 + 420 x 25.36
=40043.8
So cost of 1 D28K product = 40043.8 / 420 = 95.34

You are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $700 a month in a stock account and $400 a month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 7.5 percent, and the bond account will pay 5.5 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a 2.5 percent return. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 25-year withdrawal period?
a. 5.545.73.
b. 6,081.31.
c. 5,870.85.
d. 6.205.66
Answer:
Monthly withdraw= $5,870.6
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Stock:
Monthly deposit= $700
Interest rate= 0.075/12= 0.00625
Number of periods= 30*12= 360
Bond:
Monthly deposit= $400
Interest rate= 0.055/12= 0.0045833
Number of periods= 30*12= 360
First, we need to calculate the value of the investment at the moment of retirement:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
Stock:
FV= {700*[(1.00625^360) - 1]} / 0.00625
FV= $943,211.797
Bond:
FV= {400*[(1.00458^360) - 1]} / 0.00458
FV= $365,447.415
Total FV= $1,308,659.212
Now, the monthly withdrawal:
Interest rate= 0.025/12= 0.002083
Number of periods= 25*12= 300
Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Monthly withdraw= (1,308,659.212*0.002083) / [1 - (1.002083^-300)]
Monthly withdraw= $5,870.6
Assuming no change in government spending, an decrease in taxes of $100 billion with an MPC of 0.90 will add a total of $_____________ billion to the economy after the multiplier effect.
A. 800
B. 400
C. 500
D. 900
Answer:
D. 900
Explanation:
MPC = 0.90
The multiplier = MPC \ {1 - MPC} = 0.90 / (1-0.90) = 0.90 / 0.10 = 9
The Effect = Decrease in taxes * Spending multiplier
The Effect = $100 * 9
The Effect = $900
So, an decrease in taxes of $100 billion with an MPC of 0.90 will add a total of $900 billion to the economy after the multiplier effect.

3. An internal company network that provides employees witheasy access to information
Answer:
1. Executive Information System (EIS).
2. Corporate Portal.
3. Intranet.
Explanation:
Information technology (IT) can be defined as a set of components or computer systems, which is used to collect, store, and process data, as well as dissemination of information, knowledge, and distribution of digital products.
An information technology (IT) interacts with its environment by receiving data in its raw forms and information in a usable format.
Information technology (IT) has significantly helped to improve both internal and external access and sharing of information between two or more business firms and individuals. Basically, there are three (3) main kinds of information technology (IT) which allow informations to be accessed and shared internally among employees; executive information systems (EIS), intranets, and portals.
1. Executive Information System (EIS): it assist managers working in an organization to monitor and analyze organizational performance. An Executive information system is also referred to as an Executive support system and it can be defined as a management support system that enhances and supports all of the senior executive information and decision-making process.
2. Corporate Portal: it's a hybrid system that uses a web address (uniform resource locator-URL) to give employees access to customized information and specialized transactions with respect to an organization.

A project has an initial cost of $44,000. Expected cash flows as a result of this project are projected as follows. Calculate the payback period for this project. Assume a discount rate of 9%.
Answer:
3.5 year
Explanation:
The computation of the payback period is given below:
Year Cash Inflow Cumulative Cash Inflow
1 $10,000 $10,000
2 $10,000 $20,000
3 $15,000 $35,000
4 $18,000 $53,000
Now the payback period is
= 3 year + ($53,000 - $44,000) ÷ $18,000
= 3 year + 0.5
= 3.5 year
Banks are financial intermediaries because they Group of answer choices print money as needed for borrowers whether business, individual, or government entities. hold all the money in the economic system in currency form. link savers who deposit money and borrowers who seek loans.
Answer: link savers who deposit money and borrowers who seek loans.
Explanation:
Loans are simply savings that someone else put into a bank. Without the bank however, it would be hard to connect the people who did the saving with the people who wanted to borrow.
The bank therefore acts as an intermediary for these people. Those who want to save, put money in a bank and those who want to get money, will then be loaned it by the bank. Because the banks has developed expertise in borrowing, it also protects the savings of the savers by not loaning out money to those that might not pay back. This is just one advantage of having the bank as an intermediary.
Blackwell, Inc. has a $125,000 liability it must pay five years from today. The company is opening a savings account so that the entire amount will be available when this debt needs to be paid. The plan is to make an initial deposit today and then deposit an additional $30,000 each year for the next three years, starting one year from today. The account pays a 5 percent rate of return. How much does the firm need to deposit today
Answer:
Initial investment= $23,838.78
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future Value (FV)= $125,000
Number of periods (n)= 5
Interest rate (i)= 5%
First, we need to calculate the future value of the three deposits using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {30,000*[(1.05^3) - 1]} / 0.05
FV= $94,575
Difference= 125,000 - 94,575= $30,425
Now, the initial investment today:
FV= PV*(1 + i)^n
Isolating PV:
PV= FV / (1 + i)^n
PV= 30,425 / (1.05^5)
PV= $23,838.78

Explanation:
Colorado Cleaning has a 5-year maximum acceptable payback period. The firm is considering the purchase of a new washing machine and must choose between two alternative ones. The first machine requires an initial investment of $25,000 and generates annual after-tax cash inflows of $6,500 for each of the next 8 years. The second machine requires an initial investment of $75,000 and provides an annual cash inflow after taxes of $9,500 for 15 years.
Required:
a. Determine the payback period for each machine.
b. Comment on the acceptability of the machines, assuming that they are independent projects.
c. Which machine should the firm accept? Why?
d. Do the machines in this problem illustrate any of the weaknesses of using payback? Discuss.
Answer:
a) Payback period = period up to which cumulative cash flow is negative +
(negative cumulative cash flow /cash flow succeeding
the above period)
Project A - Up to year 4 ,cash flow recovered = 3000 * 4 = 12,000
Payback period =14,000/3,000 = 4.67 years
Project B= Cash flow recovered up to year 5 = 4000 * 5 = 20000
Payback period = 21,000/4,000 =5.25 years
b) On the basis of the Payback period, Project A should be selected, as it has a lower payback period and is also within the maximum acceptable payback period. back period.(4.67 < 5)
Project B should not be selected as its payback recovery is not within the maximum acceptable payback period (5.25 >5 )
c) Machine A should be selected as it has a lower payback period. than machine B.
d)The payback period ignores the life present value of cash flow and also the life of the machine each project has.
so the decision on the basis of the payback period may not be accurate.
A company is trying to decide between two independent projects. Each project has a cost of capital of 12%. Project A has an IRR of 11.4%. Project B has an IRR of 11.1%. Which project should the company choose if the goal of the firm is to maximize shareholder wealth
Answer:
Neither project should be chosen
Explanation:
Given that
Each project cost of capital is 12%
The IRR of project A is 11.4%
And, the IRR of project B is 11.1%
As we can see that the cost of capital of each project with their internal rate of return so no project should be selected
Therefore the above statement represent an answer

All companies try to have happy workers as they know the relationship between satisfaction and performance. This is why they are focusing on motivating their employees in a variety of ways. From what you have learned please suggest what companies should do to have a working place that could effectively motivate their employees.
Answer:
1. Reward and incentivize workers
2. Set smaller weekly or biweekly goals for them.
3. Foster trust between the managers and workers.
Explanation:
In order to have workers who are motivated to put in their best in the company, employers should take certain positive actions. These actions include;
1. Reward and incentivize workers: Rewards which could be monetary, as word of praise, or formal recognition can move workers to give their best. Humans are motivated when their efforts are recognized and praised. Therefore, incentivizing workers is a good way to get them motivated.
2. Set smaller weekly or biweekly goals for them: Setting humongous goals and targets can scare off and pressurize the workers. But when these large goals are broken into smaller goals, they can then be motivated to reach those goals.
3. Foster trust between the managers and workers: When workers have a sense of belonging and know that they are trusted, they will be in a more relaxed frame to achieve their goals. Unwarranted allegations and suspicions can put the workers on edge.

When the selling division in an internal transfer has unsatisfied demand from outside customers for the product that is being transferred, then the lowest acceptable transfer price as far as the selling division is concerned is:
Answer: c. the market price charged to outside customers
Explanation:
When a division is able to sell its products to customers outside the company for a certain price but instead has to transfer these to another division in the company, the minimum transfer price will have to be the selling price to the customers outside so that the division would not make losses.
The division that this good is transferred to will then reflect the cost of acquiring the goods as that selling price. This cost will be accounted for when the new division wants to sell their own goods that way this cost will be recuperated on a company level.

Assuming a specific single project with normal cash flows and a cost of capital of 10%, which of the following statements will ALWAYS be true?
a. If NPV > 0 at the stated cost of capital (i.e., 10%), then NPV will also be > 0 at a cost of capital of 12%.
b. If NPV > 0, then Profitability Index > 0.
c. If NPV > 0, then Payback Period > 0.
d. If NPV > 0, then a simple sum of the cash inflows of the project will always be greater than the cost of the project (i.e, the year 0 cash flow).
e. If NPV > 0, then IRR > 0.
Answer:
b. If NPV > 0, then Profitability Index > 0.
c. If NPV > 0, then Payback Period > 0.
d. If NPV > 0, then a simple sum of the cash inflows of the project will always be greater than the cost of the project (i.e, the year 0 cash flow).
e. If NPV > 0, then IRR > 0
Explanation:
The net present value shows the net worth of the assets or the project at the discount rate or the cost of capital. In the case when the net present value comes in positive so the internal rate of return should be more than the cost of capital
Also the profitability index lies between -1 and +1 so if the net present value is positive so the profitability should be more than 1
Hence, b to e statements are correct
Cash Short and Over Entries
Listed below are the weekly cash register tape amounts for service fees and the related cash counts during the month of July. A change fund of $100 is maintained.
Date Change Fund Cash Register Actual Cash
Receipt Amount Counted
July 2 $100 $281.80 $379.00
July 9 100 311.50 411.50
July 16 100 304.10 406.90
July 23 100 318.20 416.00
July 30 100 293.60 397.50
1. Determine the ending balance of the cash short and over account.
2. Does it represent an expense or revenue?
Answer:
1. Ending balance of cash short and over account:
Ending cash = 100 beginning balance + Cash register amount - Actual cash counted
July 2 = 100 + 281.80 - 379.00
= $2.80 shortage because actual cash is less than it should be
July 9 = 100 + 311.50 - 411.50
= $0
July 16 = 100 + 304.10 - 406.90
= $2.80 surplus because actual cash is more
July 23 = 100 + 318.20 - 416.00
= $2.20 shortage
July 30 = 100 + 293.60 - 397.50
= $3.90 surplus
Balance = Surplus - shortages
= (3.90 + 2.80) - (2.80 + 2.20)
= $1.70
2. This is revenue because it is a surplus.
