Answer:
Price Elastic
Explanation:
We know that
The formula to compute the price elasticity of demand is shown below:
= (Percentage change in quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price)
The classification as follows
1. Perfectly inelastic = If zero
2. Inelastic = When elasticity is below than one
3. Unitary elastic = When elasticity is equal to one
4. Elastic = When elasticity is exceeded than one
5. Perfectly elastic = When elasticity is in infinity
Since the percentage change in the quantity demanded of a good is greater than the percentage change in the price of the good which reflects that the elasticity is more than one
Answer:
The demand is price elastic in nature because it is greater than 1.
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of demand refers to the response of quantity demanded of a good to the change in price. Of course, when the price decreases, quantity demanded of a good increases and vice-versa but to how much degree is determined by the Price Elasticity of demand.
Mathematically, Price Elasticity of Demand is the ratio of % change in quantity demanded of a good and % change in the price of a good i.e.
Price Elasticity of Demand = % change in quantity demanded of a good / % change in the price of a good
In the problem, since the percentage change in the quantity demanded of a good is greater than the percentage change in the price of the good, the above ratio will be greater than 1. Hence, the demand of the good is price elastic.
b. False.
The answer & explanation for this question is given in the attachment below.
Answer:
Option c. 0.73
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Market value of securities = $5,000
Current beta of the portfolio = 1.28
Beta of the riskiest security = 1.75
Required beta = 1.15
Now,
let the beta of the other security be 'x'
Portfolio beta = weighted average of individual betas in the portfolio
or
1.28 × 8 × $5000 = [ x × (8 - 1) × $5000 ] + [ 1.75 × $5000 ]
or
$51,200 = $35,000x + $8750
or
$35,000x = $42,450
or
x = 1.21
Thus,
If she wishes to reduce the beta to 1.15, by replacing the riskiest security,
let the beta of the replacement security be 'y'
Therefore,
1.15 × 8 × $5000 = [ 1.21 × (8 - 1 ) × $5000 ] + [ y × $5000 ]
or
$46,000 = $42,350 + $5,000y
or
$5,000y = $3,650
or
y = 0.73
Hence,
Option c. 0.73
Answer:
The operating income will increase by $13,000.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales revenue
Total= $490,000
Luxury= $360,000
Sporty= $130,000
Variable expenses:
Total= $355,000
Luxury= $235,000
Sporty= $120,000
Contribution margin
Total= $135,000
Luxury= $125,000
Sporty= $10,000
Fixed expenses:
Total= $78,000
Luxury= $39,000
Sporty= $39,000
Operating income (loss):
Total= $57,000
Luxury= $86,000
Sporty= $(29,000)
New Income Statement:
Sales= 360,000
Variable costs= 235,000 (-)
Contribution margin= 125,000
Fixed costs= 39,000 + 16,000= 55,000
Operating income= 70,000
The operating income will increase by $13,000.
Direct materials $800,000 $120,000
Direct manufacturing labor $200,000 $200,000
Manufacturing overhead $400,000 $500,000
The actual material and labor costs charged to Job #432 were as follows:
Total
Direct materials: $21,000
Direct labor:
Department A $11,000
Department B $7,000
$18,000
Apple Valley applies manufacturing overhead costs to jobs on the basis of direct manufacturing labor cost using departmental rates determined at the beginning of the year.
For Department A, the manufacturing overhead allocation rate is: _________
For Department B, the manufacturing overhead allocation rate is: _________
Manufacturing overhead costs allocated to Job #432 total: _________
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. manufacturing overhead allocation rate for department A
= (Manufacturing overhead department A/Manufacturing direct labor department A) × 100
= ($400,000/$200,000) × 100
= 200%
2. Overhead allocation rate for department B
= ($500,000/$200,000) × 100
= 250%
3. Manufacturing overhead cost allocated to job #432.
($11,000 × $400,000)/$200,000 + ($7,000 × $500,000)/$200,000
= $22,000 + $17,500
= $39,500

Answer:
b)
Annual Depreciation expense= $58,800
Explanation:
According to International Accounting standards(IAS) 16 property plan and equipment (PPE), the cost of an asset is the purchase cost plus other costs of bringing it to the intended working conditions.
So we will add the purchase cost to installation , freight charges.
Cost of assets = 300,000 + 14,000 + 40,000 =$354,000
Annual depreciation = (Cost - Scrap Value)/ Number of years
= (354,000 - 60,000)/5
=$58,800
Annual Depreciation expense= $58,800
