A bakery famous for its cupcakes opens its doors at 9 a.m. and allows each customer to purchase up to 2 cupcakes until the day's

Which of the following statements about this market are true? Select all that apply.1)The cupcakes are being sold below their equilibrium price.
2)The bakery is maximizing its short-run producer surplus.

3)The customers who receive cupcakes are the customers with the highest willingness to pay for cupcakes.

4)The bakery is not using price as the only means of allocating cupcakes to its customers.

Answer:

The true statements regarding the market are:

1) The cupcakes are priced below their equilibrium level. This is evident as excess demand exists, which wouldn't be the case at the equilibrium price.

3) Customers getting cupcakes are those who value them the most, seen through their willingness to queue before the bakery opens.

4) The bakery does not rely solely on price for distributing cupcakes. Timing plays a role; only those who arrive early get them.

Statements (2) and (4) are incorrect because those conditions only hold true at the equilibrium point.

Target purchases home goods made by a supplier in China. Target's stores in the United States sell 200,000 units of home goods e
Free_Kalibri [3472]

Information Provided:

Yearly Demand (D) = 200,000 × 12 = 2,400,000 units

Ordering Cost (S) = $500 each order

Carrying Cost (H) = 20% of the Unit Price = $10 × 20% = $2

Cost per Unit = $10

Calculations:

1) Optimal Order Quantity = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H} }

Optimal Order Quantity = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2,400,000\times 500}{2} }

Optimal\ Order\ Size = 34,641 Units (Approx)

2) Annual\ holding\ cost = (Optimal\ Order\ Size / 2) \times Holding\ Cost

Annual Holding Expense = (34,641 / 2) × 2

Annual Holding Expense = $34,641

3) Orders Each Year = Yearly Demand / Optimal Order Quantity

Orders Each Year = 2,400,000 / 34,641

Orders Each Year = 69.2820646

Orders Each Year = 69 (Approximately)

4) Yearly Transportation Variable Cost = Cost per Unit × Yearly Demand

Yearly Transportation Variable Cost = $0.10 × 2,400,000

Yearly Transportation Variable Cost = $240,000

5) Yearly Clerical Expense = Orders Each Year × Cost Each Order

Yearly Clerical Expense = 69.282 × $500

Yearly Clerical Expense = $34,641

2. The city of Glendale borrows $48 million by issuing municipal bonds to help build the Arizona Cardinals football stadium. It
soldi70 [3439]

Response:

$5,917,965.66 annually

Clarification:

The sum of $48 million accounts for the total of all annuities after a decade. To determine how much the city of Glendale must allocate each year, we use the present value of annuity equation, outlined below.

P   = PV ×  r / 1 − (1+r)−n

Where P is the payment amount

PV = present value of annuity: $48,000,000.00

r = interest rate: 4 % = 0.04

n: number of periods: 10

P = $48,000,000 x {0.04/(1-(1+0.04)-10}

P = $48,000,000 x {0.04/ 1-0.6755641688)

P =$48,000,000x (0.04/0.3244358312)

P= $48,000,000 x 0.123290951

P= 5,917,965.66 per year

Beckham Broadcasting Company (BBC) has operating income (EBIT) of $2,500,000. The company's depreciation expense is $500,000 and
arsen [3236]

Answer:

The right choice is option (D).

Explanation:

The scenario provides the following information:

Operating Income (EBIT) = $2,500,000

Depreciation Expense = $500,000

Tax rate = 40%

Net investment = $1,000,000

Thus, we can determine BBC's free cash flow using this formula:

= EBIT × (1 - Tax Rate) + Depreciation & Amortization - Net investment

Insert the values into the formula above:

So, the calculation becomes:

= $2,500,000 × (1 - 40%) + $500,000 - $1,000,000

= $1,500,000 + $500,000 - $1,000,000

= $1,000,000

Mason Company has two manufacturing departments—Machining and Assembly. The company considers all of its manufacturing overhead
soldi70 [3439]

Answer:

(a) Predetermined overhead rate for the entire plant:

=\frac{Total\ manufacturing\ overhead}{Total\ direct\ labor\ hours}

=\frac{23,400,000}{780,000}

= 30

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job A:

= Total hours of direct labor × Predetermined overhead rate for the plant

= 15 × 30

= 450

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job A:

= Total direct labor hours × Plantwide predetermined overhead rate

= 9 × 30

= 270

(b) Department-specific predetermined overhead rates:

Machining =\frac{Manufacturing\ overhead}{Machine\ hours}

Machining =\frac{22,500,000}{750,000}

= 30

Assembly =\frac{Manufacturing\ overhead}{Labor\ hours}

Assembly =\frac{900,000}{750,000}

= 1.2

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job A:

= (Machining machine hours × 30) +  (Assembly direct labor hours × 1.2)

= (11 × 30) +  (10 × 1.2)

= 330 + 12

= 342

Applied manufacturing overhead for Job B:

= (Machining machine hours × 30) +  (Assembly direct labor hours × 1.2)

= (12 × 30) +  (5 × 1.2)

= 360 + 6

= 366
