Answer:
A.19.82 minutes
B. 48 sorts
C. 10.75
Explanation:
A. Calculation for the average time
Based on Interarrival time 30 customers per hour will give us 1 customer per 2 minutes
Hence,
a = 2 min
Cva= 1
Process time which is p = 1.7 min
CVp will be :3 min/1.7 min = 1.765
Utilization will be calculated as :p/a = 1.7/2 = 0.85
Now let find the average time
Tq= 1.7 x [0.85/(1-0.85)]x[(1^2 + 1.765^2)/2]
Tq= 19.82 minutes
Therefore the average time will be 19.82 minutes
B. Calculation for How many videos can be sort
Utilization will be calculated as: p/a = 1.7/2 = 0.85
Idle time will be calculated as : 0.15 x 8 hours
Idle time = 1.2 hours =
1.2 hours converted to minutes will be 72 minutes
Hence,
Number of videos sorted = 72 minutes / 1.5
Number of videos sorted = 48 sorts
Therefore the numbers of video that can be sort will be 48 sort
C. Calculation for the average number of customers who are at the checkout desk
Tq= 19.82 minutes
p = 1.7
T = Tq+ p = 21.52 minutes
Iq= R x Tq= 1/a x 19.82 = 0.5
Iq=0.5 * 19.82
Iq = 9.9 customers
Hence we are going to use this formula to find the average number of customers
I = Iq+ Ip= Iq+ u
Let plug in the formula
I= 9.9 + 0.85
I= 10.75
Therefore the average number of customers who are at the checkout desk will be 10.75
Indicate which of the following transactions will be included in (that is, directly increase) the GDP of the United States in 2017.
a. Athleticus, a U.S. shoe company, produces a pair of sneakers at a plant in Vietnam on March 10, 2017. Athleticus imports the pair of sneakers into the United States on May 20, 2017.
b. An accountant starts a client's 2017 tax return on April 14, 2018, finishing it just before midnight on April 15, 2018.
c. Graincorp, a U.S. agricultural company, produces corn syrup at a plant in Iowa on September 13, 2017. It sells the corn syrup to Crunchy's for use in the production of cereal that will be made in the United States in 2017. (Note: Focus exclusively on whether production of the corn syrup increases GDP directly, and ignore the effect of production of the cereal on GDP.)
d. Tasty's, a U.S. fast-food company, produces a hamburger at one of its many St. Louis locations on January 21, 2017. It sells the hamburger to a customer that same day.
e. Chocolate Express, a Swiss chocolate company, produces a chocolate bar at a plant in Illinois on December 5, 2017. An elementary school student buys the chocolate bar on December 24.

Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports imports
When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
services not rendered to oneself
Activities not reported to the government
illegal activities
sale or purchase of used products
sale or purchase of intermediate products
Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
Athleticus shoes produced in Vietnam would not be included because it wasn't produced in the US
b. the work done by the accountant would not be included in 2017 GDP because it wasn't concluded in 2017 but in 2018
c. The corn syrup is an intermediate good and it would not be included in GDP
d. e. The hamburger and chocolate would be included in GDP as part of consumption spending
Leonard, a company that manufactures explosionproof motors, is considering two alternatives for expanding its international export capacity. Option 1 requires equipment purchases of $900,000 now and $560,000 two years from now, with annual M&O costs of $79,000 in years 1 through 10. Option 2 involves subcontracting some of the production at costs of $280,000 per year beginning now through the end of year 10. Neither option will have a significant salvage value.
Required:
Use a present worth analysis to determine which option is more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year. (Note: Check out the spreadsheet exercises for new options that Leonard has been offered recently.)
Answer:
Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the total present values (in bold red color) of the two alternatives for expanding international export capacity.
Present worth can be described as an equivalence method of analysis in which the cash flows of an investment or a project are discounted to a single present value.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Total present value of Option 1 = – $1,620,094
Total present value of Option 2 = – $1,453,892
Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.
After visiting several automobile dealerships, Richard selects the used car he wants. He likes its $10,000 price, but financing through the dealer is no bargain. He has $2,000 cash for a down payment, so he needs an $8,000 loan. In shopping at several banks for an installment loan, he learns that interest on most automobile loans is quoted at add-on rates. That is, during the life of the loan, interest is paid on the full amount borrowed even though a portion of the principal has been paid back. Richard borrows $8,000 for a period of four years at an add-on interest rate of 11 percent. What is the total interest on Richard’s loan? What is the total cost of the car? What is the monthly payment? What is the annual percentage rate (APR)?
Answer:
A. $3,520
B. $13,520
C. $240 monthly
D. 21.55%
Explanation:
A. Calculation for the total interest
Using this formula
Interest = (Principal) (Rate) (Time)
Let plug in the formula
Interest = (8000)(.11)(4)
Interest = $3,520
B. Calculation for the total cost of the car
Using this formula
Total Cost = Down Payment + Principal amount Borrowed + Interest amount
Let plug in the formula
Total Cost = $2,000 + $8,000 + $3,520
Total Cost = $13,520
C. Calculation for the monthly payment
Using this formula
Monthly Payment = (Principal amount Borrowed + Total interest amount ) / Total number of payments
Monthly Payment = ($8,000 + $3,520) / 48
Monthly Payment=$11,520/48
Monthly Payment=$240 monthly
Note 4-year * 12 months will give us 48months
D. Calculation for the annual percentage rate (APR) using this formula
APR= (2 × n × I) / [P × (N + 1)]
Let plug in the formula
APR = (2 × 12 × $3,520) / [$8,000 × (48+1)]
APR =$84,480/$8,000×49
APR=$84,480/$392,000
APR=0.2155×100
APR= 21.55%
Suppose there is a policy debate over whether the United States should impose trade restrictions on imported ball bearings:________.
Domestic producers of ball bearings send a lobbyist to the U.S. government to request that the government impose trade restrictions on imports of ball bearings. The lobbyist claims that the U.S. ball-bearing industry is new and cannot currently compete with foreign firms. However, if trade restrictions were temporarily imposed on ball bearings, the domestic ball-bearing industry could mature and adjust and would eventually be able to compete in the world market.
Which of the following justifications is the lobbyist using to argue for the trade restriction on ball bearings?
A. Infant-industry argument
B. Saving-domestic-jobs argument
C. Using-protection-as-a-bargaining-chip argument
D. National-security argument
E. Unfair-competition argument
Answer:
Infant-industry argument
Explanation:
Here is a paraphrased version of the lobbyist's claim and it is from here that we get our answer.
"He claims that this industry in question is new and currently cannot compete with foreign industry".
What this tells us is that this industry in question is an infant industry. An infant industry is a new industry yet to be past it's developmental stage and which cannot be compete yet with other established industries.

In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .
Required:
a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
b. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
Answer:
a. P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States; and also P = 20 and Q = 100 in France.
b. P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States; and P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.
Explanation:
Note: The part b of the requirement is not complete. The entire question is therefore represented with the complete pat b before answering the question as follows:
In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .
Required:
a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
The explanation to the answers is now provided as follows:
a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
In economics, an equilibrium occurs at point where the quantities demanded is equal to the quantities supplied.
Let Q denotes equilibrium quantity and P denotes equilibrium price, the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries can therefore be calculated as follows:
In the United States
QD =300 − 10P
QS= −300 + 20P
Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:
300 - 10P = −300 + 20P
300 + 300 = 20P + 10P
600 = 30P
P = 600 / 30
P = 20
To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:
Q = 300 – 10(20)
Q = 300 – 200
Q = 100
Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States.
In France
QD = 300 − 10P
QS= −33.33 + 6.67P
Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:
300 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P
300 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P
333.33 = 16.67P
P = 333.33 / 16.67
P = 20
To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:
Q = 300 – 10(20)
Q = 300 – 200
Q = 100
Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 also in France.
b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
In the United States
QD = 400 − 10P
QS= −300 + 20P
Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:
400 - 10P = −300 + 20P
400 + 300 = 20P + 10P
700 = 30P
P = 700 / 30
P = 23.33
To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:
Q = 400 – 10(23.33)
Q = 400 – 233.30
Q = 166.70
Therefore, P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States.
In France
QD = 400 − 10P
QS= −33.33 + 6.67P
Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:
400 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P
400 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P
433.33 = 16.67P
P = 433.33 / 16.67
P = 25.99 = 26
To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:
Q = 400 – 10(26)
Q = 400 – 260
Q = 140
Therefore, P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.

One-year Treasury securities yield 4.85%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 5.2%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities
Answer:
5.025%
Explanation:
When we assume that the pure expectations theory is correct, then we are assuming that there is no risk premium involved. The formula to determine the yield for the 2 year treasury security:
(1 + i)² = (1 + 4.85%) x (1 + 5.2%)
(1 + i)² = 1.0485 x 1.052
(1 + i)² = 1.103022
√(1 + i)² = √1.103022
1 + i = 1.050248542
i = 0.050248542 = 5.025%

You are CEO of Rivet Networks, maker of ultra-high performance network cards for gaming computers, and you are considering whether to launch a new product. The product, the Killer X3000, will cost $900,000 to develop up front (year 0), and you expect revenues the first year of $800,000, growing to $1.5 million the second year, and then declining by 40% per year for the next 3 years before the product is fully obsolete. In years 1 through 5, you will have fixed costs associated with the product of $100,000 per year, and variable costs equal to 50% of revenues.
A. What are the cash flows for the project in years 0 through 51
B. Plot the NPV profile for this nvestment using discount rates from 0% to 50% in 5% increments.
C. What is the project's NPV if the project's cost of capital is 10%?
D. Use the NPV profile to estimate the cost of capital at which the project would become unprofitable; that is, estimate the project's IRR or calculate it using the data.
Initial investment $900,000
Revenues vear 1 $800,000
Revenues vear 2 $1,500,000
Revenues decline years 4000
Fixed costs vears 1-5 $100,000
Variable costs 50%
Answer:
F= (900,000)
F1= 300,000
F2 = 650,000
F3 = 350,000
F4 = 170,000
F5 = 62,000
NPV at 10% $327487
IRR 20.587%
Explanation:
F0 -900,000
revenues variable cost fixed cost net flow
F1 800,000 -400000 -100,000 = 300,000
F2 1,500,000 -750000 -100,000 = 650,000
F3 900000 -450000 -100,000 = 350,000
F4 540000 -270000 -100,000 = 170,000
F5 324000 -162000 -100,000 = 62,000
NPV at 10%:
For each cashflow, we apply the discount of a lump sum formula

A diet is to contain at least 3640 mg vitamin C, 2190 mg Calcium, and 2170 calories every day. Two foods, a dairy-based meal and a vegan option are to fulfill these requirements. Each ounce of the dairy-based meal provides 40 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 10 calories. Each ounce of the vegan option provides 60 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 50 calories. If the dairy-based meal costs $0.21 per ounce and the vegan option costs $0.27 per ounce.
Required:
a. How many ounces of each food should be purchased to minimize costs?
b. What is that minimum cost (per day)?
Answer:
(A) 73 ounces of diary-based meal and 28.8 ounces of the vegan option.
(B) The minimum cost per day is [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106
Explanation:
First thing to note is that the dairy-based meal costs less than the vegan option. In otherwords, if you're to minimize cost, you should purchase as many ounces of dairy-based meal as possible. This is the first mindset or step.
What the diet should contain everyday:
3640mg - Vitamin C
2190mg - Calcium
2170 - Calories
DAIRY BASED:
(40 × 91 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (10 × 217 = 2170)
VEGAN OPTION:
(60 × 60.67 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (50 × 43.4 = 2170)
Getting 73 ounces of dairy-based meal, you have
(40 × 73), (30 × 73), (10 × 73) = 2920mg, 2190mg, 730 calories.
You have left 720mg of Vitamin C and 1440 calories to obtain from the Vegan Option.
(60 × 12 = 720), (30 × 0 = 0), (50 × 28.8 = 1440)
The highest quantity needed here is 28.8 ounces of calories from the vegan option, hence 28.8 ounces of the vegan meal should be purchased. There will be excesses of Vitamin C and Calcium but that is necessary in order to purchase the stipulated minimum amount of each nutrient.
The minimum cost per day will now be [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106
Assume that the following events occurred at a division of Generic Electric for March of the current year:
1. Purchased $100 million in direct materials.
2. Incurred direct labor costs of $46 million.
3. Determined that manufacturing overhead was $76 million.
4. Transferred 90 percent of the materials purchased to work-in-process.
5. Completed work on 75 percent of the work-in-process. Costs are assigned equally across all work-in-process.
6. The inventory accounts have no beginning balances. All costs incurred were debited to the appropriate account and credited to Accounts Payable.
Required:
Give the amounts for the following items in the Work-in-process account: (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Enter your final answers in millions rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Transfers-In ____ Million
Transfers-Out ______ Million
Ending Balance _____ Million
Answer:
A. Transfer -In= $212,000,000
B. Transfer-Out = $159,000,000
C. Ending balance= $53,000,000
Explanation:
a) Calculation for Transfers-In
Transfer -In=$46,000,000 + $76,000,000 + (.90× $100,000,000)
Transfer -In=$46,000,000 + $76,000,000 + $90,000,000
Transfer -In= $212,000,000
b) Calculation for Transfer-Out
Transfer-Out=.75 × $212,000,000
Transfer-Out = $159,000,000
c) Calculation for the ending balance
Using this formula
Ending balance=Transfer -In-Transfer-Out
Let plug in the formula
Ending balance= $212,000,000 - $159,000,000 Ending balance= $53,000,000
how does the IoT and Big Data currently play into your job, your organization and the industry? Are these two things connected and if so, how?
Explanation:
The term IoT is an acronym for 'Internet of Things' which refers to a modern technology that allows certain physical objects or “things” as we may call it to connect to the internet.
While Big Data refers not just to large data, but to an innovative field of technology that specializes in analyzing very large (big) data sets.
Consider the education industry, by means of IoT, it is possible for school management to effectively track their student's academic progress in real-time.
IoT and Big Data connected in the sense that, as these physical things (objects) communicate over the internet, a mass amount of data ("Big Data") is been generated which could then be analyzed using specialized software. In other words, they are mutually beneficial.
Firms often seek to borrow money to expand their capital stock, and the price they pay for the money is the interest rate. What happens to quantity of money demanded if the interest rate increases
Answer:
When interest rate rises, the quantity of money demanded reduces
Explanation:
As interest rate increases firms seeking to borrow money for capital stock expansion are likely not going to go ahead with it. The reason is simply because, interest rate and money demanded have an inverse relationship. As interest rate rises money demanded falls because it means that for any amount of money borrowed the interest rate attached to it is higher making the cost of borrowing heavier on the borrower.
Your boss would like your help on a marketing research project he is conducting on the relationship between the price of soup and the quantity of soup supplied. He hands you the following document:
Price of Soup Quantity of Soup Supplied
0.50 750
0.75 1,000
1.00 1,500
1.25 2,000
Your task is to take this blank and construct a graphical representation of the data. In doing so, you determine that as the price of soup rises, the quantity of soup supplied increases. This confirms the blank.
For both blanks, the choices are supply curve, quantity of soup supplied, supply schedule, and law of supply. I got law of supply for the first blank, and supply curve for the second blank and I wanted to make sure if I was correct.
Answer:
Your task is to take this supply schedule and construct a graphical representation of the data. In doing so, you determine that as the price of soup rises, the quantity of soup supplied increases. This confirms the law of supply.
Explanation:
We draw the supply curve being X-axis the quantity and Y-axis the Price.
The date to construct this representation is in the supply schedule.
This confirms the "law of supply" which states that as the price of a good icnrases the willingess to produce more units of that good increases as there is higher revenue.

A competitive firm maximizes profit by choosing a level of output where the world price is equal to the firm's
Answer: c. Marginal Cost
Explanation:
A Competitive firm operates in a market where they are price takers. This means that the price they charge is equal to both their average revenue and their Marginal Revenue.
P = MR = AR
Companies maximise profit at a point where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost because at this point, resources are being fully utilized.
If the Competitive firm's Price is the same as its Marginal Revenue this means that to maximise profits, the firm should choose an output level where the price is equal to the marginal cost.

Following are several figures reported for Allister and Barone as of December 31, 2015:
Allister Barone
Inventory $50,000 $300,000
Sales 1,000,000 8,00,000
Investment income Not given
Cost of goods sold 500,000 400,000
Operating expenses 230,000 300,000
Allister acquired 90 percent of Barone in January 2020. In allocating the newly acquired subsidiary's fair value at the acquisition date, Allister noted that Barone had developed a customer list worth $66,000 that was unrecorded on its accounting records and had a six-year remaining life. Any remaining excess fair value over Barone's book value was attributed to goodwill. During 2021, Barone sells inventory costing $135,000 to Allister for $190,000. Of this amount, 20 percent remains unsold in Allister's warehouse at year-end.
Determine balances for the following items that would appear on Allister's consolidated financial statements for 2015:
a. Inventory
b. Sales
c. Cost of Goods Sold
d. Operating Expenses
e. Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest
Answer:
a. $344,500
b. $1,610,000
c. $405,500
d. $530,000
e. $9,550 loss
Explanation:
First, Eliminate the Intragroup transactions as follows :
Elimination Journal for the Intragroup Sale :
Sales (Barone) $190,000 (debit)
Cost of Sales (Allister) $190,000 (credit)
Elimination of unrealized profit in closing inventory :
Cost of Sales (Barone) $5,500 (debit)
Inventory (Allister) $5,500 (credit)
Unrealized Profit in Inventory ($190,000 - $135,000) × 10% = $5,500
Then, Consolidate the Financial Statements taking into account the elimination journals
Note : Consolidation is 100% of Parent + 100% of Subsidiary.
Note : A firm that is exercising control (> 50% Voting Rights) is required to prepare Consolidated Financial Statements - IFRS 3.
Consolidated Income Statement
Sales (1,000,000 + 8,00,000 - $190,000) $1,610,000
Cost of Sales ( $500,000 + 400,000 - $190,000 + $5,500) ($715,500)
Gross Profit $894,500
Less Operating Expenses ($230,000 + $300,000) ($530,000)
Net Income $364,500
Consolidated Financial Statement (Extract)
Inventory ($50,000 + $300,000 - $5,500) $344,500
Subsidiary Profit
Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest
Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest = Net Subsidiary Income × % Non Controlling Interest
Net Subsidiary Income - Barone
Sales (800,000 - 190,000) $610,000
Less Cost of Sales ( 400,000 + 5,500) ($405,500)
Gross Profit $204,500
Less Operating Expenses ($300,000)
Net Income/ (loss) ($95,500)
Therefore,
Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest = ($95,500) × 10%
= $9,550 loss
Assume you make monthly deposits of $200 starting one month from now into an account that pays 6% per year, compounded semiannually. If you want to know how much you will have after four years, the value of i you should use in the F/A factor, assuming no interperiod interest, is
Answer:
3%
Explanation:
the account pays a 6% annual rate, but since it is compounded semiannually, you must divide it by 2 = 6% / 2 = 3%
since no interperiod interest is paid, the semiannual payment = $200 x 6 = $1,200
the future value = $1,200 x 8.8923 (FV annuity factor, 3%, 8 periods) = $10,670.76
In 2009, an 1893 Morgan silver dollar sold for $6,450. Required: What was the rate of return on this investment? (Do not include the percent sign (%). Enter rounded answer as directed, but do not use the rounded numbers in intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)
Answer: 7.86%
Explanation:
Using the Future Value formula;
= Amount * ( 1 + r)^n
The question is looking for the rate so making that the subject would be;
Assuming the car was $1 in 1893,
And n = 2009 - 1893 = 116 years
FV = Amount * ( 1 + r)^n
( 1 + r)^n = FV/ Amount
1 ^n + r^n = FV / Amount
r = n√((FV/ Amount) / 1^n)
r = n√(FV/ Amount)
r = 116√(6,450/ 1)
= 1.07855
Subtract 1 for the percentage;
= 1.07855 - 1
= 7.86%
In, & Sons, a small environmental-testing firm, has a small environmental-testing firm, performed 11,400 radon tests for $260 each and 15,000 lead tests for $210 each. Because newer homes are being built with lead-free pipes, lead-testing volume is expected to decrease by 12% next year. However, awareness of radon-related health hazards is expected to result in a 5% increase in radon-test volume each year in the near future. Jim Hart feels that if he lowers his price for lead testing to $200 per test, he will have to face only a 4% decline in lead-test sales in 2018.
