Answer:
b. decrease
Explanation:
In the EOQ model, if carrying costs increase while all other costs remain unchanged, the number of orders placed would be expected to decrease.
Carrying cost is placed in denominator of the EOQ formula hence as we increase denominator the total quantity will fall. If the carrying cost is high, then we would place lesser order to reduce such costs.
Also, if carrying costs decrease while all other costs remain unchanged, the number of orders placed would be expected to decrease because there is already excess of inventory due to which the new orders have to be decreased to utilize the already pending inventory.

Using the following routing information and a From-To Chart, determine the total flow efficiency of the parts assuming an alphabetical order. Give your results in terms of percentage, not as a decimal value, i.e., 54.3 as opposed to .543.
Part Order Relative Weighted Value
1 R E B D C A S 4
2 R A B C D E S 2
3 R C B D A E S 3
Answer:
hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question
answer: 28.12%
Explanation:
The first table is the allotting of relative weighted value in from to chart and also finding the Total.
The second table is found by multiplying 1-times cell distance in the upper 2-times with cell distance in lower triangular values.
Hence Flow efficiency = (Total / penalty ) * 100
= ( 36 / 128 ) * 100 = 28.12%

Smashed Pumpkins Co. paid $160 in dividends and $589 in interest over the past year. The company increased retained earnings by $492 and had accounts payable of $630. Sales for the year were $16,370 and depreciation was $732. The tax rate was 40 percent. What was the company's EBIT
Answer: $1675.67
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the company's EBIT would be calculated as:
Earnings After Tax will be:
= Retained Earnings + Dividends
= 492 + 160
= 652
Earnings Before Tax will be:
= EAT / (1 - tax rate)
= 652 / (1 - 40%)
= 652 / (1 - 0.40)
= 652/0.60
= 1086.67
EBIT would then be calculated as:
= EBT + Interest
= 1086.67 + 589
= 1675.67

Loggers are much __________ likely to supply wood to the market if property rights are not enforced.
Classify the source of market failure in each case listed.
a. A house party plays music at a very high volume, disturbing other residents in the neighborhood.
b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity.
Answer:
Loggers are much more likely to supply wood to the market if property rights are not enforced.
When property rights are not well enforced, ownership of the resource is not well defined either. This will lead to more people taking advantage of the resource like the loggers above. They will supply more wood because the ownership of their resource source is not well defined.
Options for the 2 questions below are Market Failure or Externality.
a. A house party plays music at a very high volume, disturbing other residents in the neighborhood. EXTERNALITY.
This is a negative externality. Negative externalities are when third parties suffer negative consequences as a result of transactions that they are not a party to. The neighbors are not playing music but it is disturbing them.
b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity. MARKET POWER.
The Utility company is not facing competition in this state and so can set the price it wants. This can lead to market failure simply because the company would have too much market power.

Retained earnings as of June 1, 2017, was $340,000.
Required:
Prepare a retained earnings statement for the year ended May 31, 2018.
Answer:
$377,200
Explanation:
Preparation for a retained earnings statement for the year ended May 31, 2018
First step is to calculate the Net income
Net income During The Year
Accounts Fees earned $809,500
Less Office expense 295,200
Miscellaneous expense 10,600
Wages expense 450,900
Net Income $52,800
Second step is to calculate the Change In Retained Earnings
Dividends $15,600
Net Income $52,800
Change In Retained Earnings $37,200
($52,800-$15,600)
Now let calculate retained earnings statement
Beginning retained earnings $340,000
Add Change In Retained Earnings $37,200
($52,800-$15,600)
Retained Earning May 31, 2018 $ $377,200

ReNew Corporation raises funds to build renewable energy systems by issuing 3-year bonds with a coupon rate of 5% and a face value of $1,800. Assume that the market interest rate for a 3-year bond issued by a firm like ReNew is currently the same as the coupon rate. The price of each of these bonds is , which means that the bonds sell at .
Answer:
$1,800
Explanation:
The price of the bond today is the present value of future cash flows, which are the coupon payments and the face value receivable by bondholders at redemption in 3 years.
When a bond has the same coupon rate as the yield, the bond would sell at par which is the $1,800 par value.
This is further affirmed using the formula below:
bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+annual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
face value=$1,800
r=yield=5%
n=number of annual coupons in 3 years=3
annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1800*5%=$90
bond price=$1800/(1+5%)^3+$90*(1-(1+5%)^-3/5%
bond price=$1800/1.05^3+$90*(1-(1.05)^-3/0.05
bond price=$1800/1.157625+$90*(1-0.863838)/0.05
bond price=$1800/1.157625+$90*0.136162/0.05
bond price=$ 1,554.91 +$ 245.09
bond price=$ 1,800.00

d. With trade, Brazil should specialize in sugar cane and China in iPods.
Answer:
d. With trade, Brazil should specialize in sugar cane and China in iPods.
Explanation:
As from the given situation it can be seen that Brazil has an absolute advantage while producing the sugarcane as it takes one unit of labor for generating one unit of sugarcane
On the other hand, china has an absolute advantage for generating an ipod as it takes four unit of labor to generate one ipod
Therefore the option d is correct
How is poverty anywhere a threat to prosperity everywhere?
Answer: Here poverty can be explained as a barrier to growth.
Explanation:
Although we indeed live today in a globalized world, where there are greater opportunities for more people, poverty continues to be a problem that can be a barrier to the growth of wealth.
Poverty interferes with the growth of the human being since it limits it and does not allow it to develop its potential, which leads it to remain at the same level where it was and contributes to the growth of poverty.
When poverty is higher, prosperity is lower. Inequalities in many aspects are becoming more marked and although it is true there seem to be greater opportunities, many times those people who come from poverty face difficulties to get out of there, which makes it a kind of circle.

Suppose your own demand curve for sweaters slopes downward. Suppose also that, for the last sweater you bought this week, you paid a price exactly equal to your willingness to pay. Then
Use letters in alphabetical order to select options
A your consumer surplus on the last sweater you bought is zero.
B you already have bought too many sweaters this week.
C your consumer surplus on all of the sweaters you have bought this week is zero.
D you should buy more sweaters before the end of the week.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.
Consumer surplus = willingness to pay – price of the good
If willingness to pay = price of the good , then consumer surplus is zero
A new machine comes with 200 free service hours over the first year. Additional time costs $180 per hour. What are the average and marginal costs per hour for the following quantities?
a) 125.
b) 225.
c) 325.
Answer:
a) 0, 0
b) 180 per hour, 20per hour
c) 180 per hour , 69.2 per hour
Explanation:
We are to calculate the average and marginal costs per hour of the given value above
a) Given Number of hours is 125, but we are told that the new machine comes with 200 free service hours over the first year. Then MARGINAL COST= 0 because the service can be equal to 200hours and the given 125 hours is less than that.
then AVERAGE COST = ZERO
(b) we are Given 225 number of hours
Additional time costs is given as $180 per hour.
Then we have $180 per hour as MARGINAL COST.
Total cost can be calculated as
= [$180 × (225 - 200)]
=[ $180 ×25] = $4,500
Average cost can be calculated as
ratio of Total cost to Number of hours i.e $4,500/225
= 20per hour
C)we are Given 325 number of hours
Additional time costs is given as $180 per hour.
Then we have $180 per hour as MARGINAL COST.
Total cost can be calculated as
= [$180 × (235 - 200)]
=[ $180 ×125] = $22,500
Average cost can be calculated as
ratio of Total cost to Number of hours i.e $22,500/325
= 69.2per hour

In Year 1, in a project to develop Product X, Lincoln Company incurred research and development costs totaling $10 million. Lincoln is able to clearly distinguish the research phase from the development phase of the project. Research-phase costs are $6 million, and development-phase costs are $4 million. All of the IAS 38 criteria have been met for recognition of the development costs as an asset. Product X was brought to market in Year 2 and is expected to be marketable for 5 years. Total sales of Product X are estimated at more than $100 million.
Required:
a. Determine the impact research and development costs have on Lincoln Company's Year 1 and Year 2 income under (1) IFRS and (2) U.S. GAAP.
b. Summarize the difference in income, total assets, and total stockholders' equity related to Product X over its five-year life under the two different sets of accounting rules.
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Data Given:
Research and Development Cost = $10 million
Research Phase Cost = $6 million
Development Cost = $4 million
Total Sales of Product X are estimated at more than = $100 million
Solution:
a.
1. IFRS:
Research cost of $6 million have been expensed in year 1 in case of IFRS.
Whereas, for year 2 developmental cost is reported as assets and amortization is recorded on the asset which is the 5th part of the developmental cost of $4 million.
$4,000,000/5 = $800,000
2. U.S. GAAP:
Under U.S. GAAP in year 1, total of $10 million have been expensed including both research and development cost.
Under U.S. GAAP in year 2, however, there is no asset reported and all the costs are expensed in year 1 hence, no impact on the income statement.
b.
Income: In year 1 under IFRS, income will be higher by $4 million ($10-$6)million before the implication of tax.
But for year 2 to year 5:
In case of IFRS, income will be lowered due to the amortization on the deferred development cost. It will decrease by $800,000.
The total assets and stock holder's equity under IFRS will be higher by the following amounts each of the years.
Year 1 $4,000,000
Year 2 $3,200,000
Year 3 $2,400,000
Year 4 $1,600,000
Year 5 $800,000
The above amount is decreased by $800,000 each year because of the amortization of asset.

A) a code of ethics.
B) the usual decision-making problems of cost versus benefit to Cooper Tire.
C) a wonderful, ethical opportunity to make a lot of money.
D) an ethical opportunity to move the distribution center to your hometown.
E) a conflict of interest.
Answer:
This could create for you:________.
E) a conflict of interest.
Explanation:
The conflict of interest will occur when, as the executive vice president for Cooper Tire, you decide to buy the land for your company from your own acres of land. It means that your personal interests (or family, friendships, financial, or other social factors) are being served, perhaps at the detriment of your employer's. In this situation, it is likely that you could compromise your judgment, decisions, or actions in the workplace by going ahead to acquire this land for your company because you want to serve your personal and community interests. However, you can avoid the conflict by clearly stating your positions to your company and allow other management staff to make the needed decision with regards to your land.
