Outsourcing simply involves the act of contracting our certain business activities and processes to third-party providers.
Staff
When you outsource your staff, you can be able to save cots and use the freed capital for other things but the disadvantage would certainly be around the issue of confidentiality of business information.
When you outsource computer servers, software licensing, and data storage, you would gain access to world-class capabilities because the third-party providers would likely provide them to meet their customers.
There would also be shared risks as part of the benefits. The disadvantages could include loss of control. People who discourage outsourcing of these functions are of the opinion that third-party vendor cannot be able to match the level of responsiveness and levels of services that could be offered by an in-house team

Last month Empire Company had a $35,280 profit on sales of $287,000. Fixed costs are $68,040 a month. By how much would sales be able to decrease for Empire to still break even
Answer:
sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even
Explanation:
gross profit = net income + fixed costs = $35,280 + $68,040 = $103,320
COGS = total sales - gross profit = $287,000 - $103,320 = $183,680
contribution margin ratio = $103,320 / $287,000 = 36%
break even point in $ = $68,040 / 36% = $189,000
sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even

It is important that marketers be able to identify which strategy a competitor is using so that they better understand how to position their own products and services. You will see a list of recent or potential strategic decisions made by large firms, and your job is to identify which type of strategy was used in each example.
While there are a variety of strategies across industries, most fall under four basic categories.
1. Market penetration strategies emphasize selling more existing products and services to existing customers.
2. Product development strategies involve creating new goods or services for existing markets.
3. Market development strategies focus on selling existing products or services to new customers. The targeted new customers could be a different gender, age group, or international market.
4. Finally, diversification strategies involve offering new products that are unrelated to the existing products produced by the organization.

1.
for Ann and hammer: it is market development because they are trying to create a product for new purposes
2.
for apple: since they are opening mini stores within target they are trying to have an expansion approach where more products and services would be sold to their customers.
3.

A Corporation has two divisions: the South Division and the West Division. The corporation's net operating income is $26,900. The South Division's divisional segment margin is $42,800 and the West Division's divisional segment margin is $29,900. What is the amount of the common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions
Answer:
$45,800
Explanation:
Common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions = South division's divisional segment margin + west division's divisional segment - corporation's net operating income
Common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions = $42,800 + $29,900 - $26,900
Common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions = $45,800
Mattola Company is giving each of its employees a holiday bonus of $200 on December 13, 20-- (a nonpayday). The company wants each employee's check to be $200. The supplemental tax percent is used.
Nobody has capped for OASDI prior to the bonus check.
a. What will be the gross amount of each bonus if each employee pays a state income tax of 2.8% (besides the other payroll taxes)? You may need to add one penny to the gross so that net bonus exactly equals $200. Round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.
b. What would the net amount of each bonus check be if the company did not gross-up the bonus? Round your intermediary calculations to the nearest cent.
Answer:
a. Gross amount of each bonus = $309.84
b. Net amount of each bonus = $129.10
Explanation:
Since the supplemental tax percent is used, the following are the relevant tax rates to be applied in the calculations:
STP = Supplemental tax percent = 25%
FICASO = Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) social security tax = 6.2%
FICAM = Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) Medicare tax = 1.45%.
SIT = State income tax = 2.8%
We therefore proceed as follows:
a. What will be the gross amount of each bonus if each employee pays a state income tax of 2.8% (besides the other payroll taxes)? You may need to add one penny to the gross so that net bonus exactly equals $200. Round your calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.
Given the tax rates above, the following formula is used to calculate the gross amount of each bonus:
Gross amount of each bonus = Holiday bonus amount / (100% - STP - FICASO - FICAM - SIT) …… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Gross amount of each bonus = $200/ (100% - 25% - 6.20% - 1.45% - 2.8%)
Gross amount of each bonus = $200 / 64.55%
Gross amount of each bonus = $309.837335398916
To the nearest cent which implies to two decimal places, we have:
Gross amount of each bonus = $309.84
b. What would the net amount of each bonus check be if the company did not gross-up the bonus? Round your intermediary calculations to the nearest cent.
The net amount of each bonus can be calculated using the following formula:
Net amount of each bonus = Holiday bonus amount * (100% - STP - FICASO - FICAM - SIT) …… (2)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (2), we have:
Net amount of each bonus = $200 * (100% - 25% - 6.20% - 1.45% - 2.8%)
Net amount of each bonus = $200 * 64.55%
Net amount of each bonus = $129.10

The following inventory valuation errors have been discovered for Knox Corporation:
The 2015 year-end inventory was overstated by $23,000
The 2016 year-end inventory was understated by $61,000
The 2017 year-end inventory was understated by $17,000
The reported income before taxes for Knox was:
Year: Income before Taxes:
2015 $138,000
2016 $254,000
2017 $168,000
Required:
Compute what income before taxes for 2015, 2016, and 2017 should have been after correcting for the errors.
Answer:
Income +/- inventory adjustment
2015: 138,000 - 23,000 = 115,000
2016: 254,000 + 61,000 = 315,000
2017: 168,000 + 17,000 = 185,000
Explanation:
Inventory Identity:
Beginning + Purchases = Ending + COGS
As the mistake is on the right side it compensates by the other component which is COGS
When the inventory is overstated this means COGS is understated.
We didn't record the cost of good sold thefore our gross profit is higher making the net income higher.
When the inventory is understated this means COGS is overstated.
We record more cost of goods sold thefore our gross profit is lower making the net income fewer as well.

Alice and Bob entered into a forward contract some time ago. Alice has the long position, while Bob has the short position. The forward contract will mature in three months and has a delivery price of $40. The current forward price for the contract is $42. The three-month risk-free interest rate (with continuous compounding) is 8%. What is the value Bob's position?
Answer:
$ - 1.96
Explanation:
After three months, Alice (long the contract) can buy the underlying by paying the delivery price of $40 which is $2 less than $42 the long position would have to pay if the contract was entered today.
DATA
Delivery price = $40
The three-month risk-free interest rate (with continuous compounding) =8%.
The current forward price = $42
Solution
So based on the present situation, Alice would be in $2 profit at the end of 3 months and Bob would be in $2 loss
Present value of Bob's loss (with continuous compounding) = 2\times e^{-0.08\times 0.25}
Present value of Bob's loss (with continuous compounding) = $1.96
The value of Bob's position is $ - 1.96
Adelberg Corporation makes two products: Product A and Product B. Annual production and sales are 1,500 units of Product A and 1,500 units of Product B. The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products. Product A requires 0.4 direct labor-hours per unit and Product B requires 0.2 direct labor-hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for next period is $87,630. The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose of computing unit product costs for external reports. The new activity-based costing system would have three overhead activity cost pools--Activity 1, Activity 2, and General Factory--with estimated overhead costs and expected activity as follows:
Expected Activity
Activity Cost Pool Estimated Overhead Costs Product A Product B Total
Activity 1 $ 41,400 1,000 500 1,500
Activity 2 15,720 800 400 1,200
General Factory 30,510 600 300 900
Total $ 87,630
(Note: The General Factory activity cost pool's costs are allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours.)
The overhead cost per unit of Product B under the activity-based costing system is closest to:_________
a. $42.90
b. $9.10
c. $21.30
d. $63.92
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each activity:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 41,400/1,500= $27.6 per unit of activity
Activity 2= 15,720/1,200= $13.1 per unit of activity
General Factory= 30,510/900= $33.9 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to product B:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Activity 1= 27.6*500= $13,800
Activity 2= 13.1*400= $5,240
General Factory= 33.9*300= $10,170
Total allocated overhead= $29,210
Unitary allocated overhead= 29,210/1,500= $19.47

What will be the nominal rate of return on a perpetual preferred stock with a $100 par value, a stated dividend of 8% of par, and a current market price of (a) $62, (b) $81, (c) $97, and (d) $136
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the risk premium is shown below:-
Rate of return = Dividend ÷ Current market price of preferred stock
The dividend should be
= $100 × 8%
= $8
a Rate of return = $8 ÷ $62
= 12.90%
b. Rate of return = $8 ÷ $81
= 9.88%
c. Rate of return = $8 ÷ $97
= 8.25%
d. Rate of return = $8 ÷ $136
= 5.88%
The given statements pertain to aggregate supply and aggregate demand. Label each statement as being either true or false.
Statement 1: An increase in the cost of energy affects both aggregate supply and aggregate demand.
A. True
B. False
Statement 2: One of the factors that increase aggregate demand is the consumption of more imports.
A. True
B. False
Statement 3: If the value of people's stock portfolios increases or if peoples houses appreciate in value, then this very easily could lead to an increase in aggregated demand.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
Statement 1: An increase in the cost of energy affects both aggregate supply and aggregate demand.
A. TrueAn increase in energy costs reduces both aggregate supply and demand.
Statement 2: One of the factors that increase aggregate demand is the consumption of more imports.
B. FalseIf net exports decrease (exports - imports), then the aggregate demand curve will shift to the left, which means it will decrease.
Statement 3: If the value of people's stock portfolios increases or if peoples houses appreciate in value, then this very easily could lead to an increase in aggregated demand.
A. TrueThis would lead to an increase in the net worth of households, which generally leads to higher spending.
When all of a firm's inputs are doubled, input prices do not change, and this results in the firm's level of production more than doubling, a firm is operating:
Answer: (B) on the downward-sloping portion of its long-run average total cost curve.
Explanation:
The downward-sloping portion of a company's Long Run Average Total Cost(LRATC) curve is the part where increasing returns to scale is witnessed.
This is because the costs that are incurred by the company leads to higher proportional output thereby reducing the average cost and pulling the LRATC down.
In this scenario, the inputs doubled and the firm's level of production more than doubled which means that with outputs increasing more than costs, the Average cost is reducing and the slope is downward sloping.
Cooperative San José of southern Sonora state in Mexico makes a unique syrup using cane sugar and local herbs. The syrup is sold in small bottles and is prized as a flavoring for drinks and for use in desserts. The bottles are sold for $12 each. The first stage in the production process is carried out in the Mixing Department, which removes foreign matter from the raw materials and mixes them in the proper proportions in large vats. The company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system.
A hastily prepared report for the Mixing Department for April appears below:
Units to be accounted for:
Work in process, April 1 (materials 90% complete; conversion 80% complete) 5,700
Started into production 34,100
Total units to be accounted for 39,800
Units accounted for as follows:
Transferred to next department 29,400
Work in process, April 30 (materials 70% complete; conversion 50% complete) 10,400
Total units accounted for 39,800
Cost Reconciliation Cost to be accounted for:
Work in process, April 1 $15,276
Cost added during the month 96,248
Total cost to be accounted for $111,524
Cost accounted for as follows:
Work in process, April 30 $20,384
Transferred to next department 91,140
Total cost accounted for $111,524
Required:
a. What were the Mixing Department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for April?
b. What were the Mixing Department's cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for April? The beginning inventory consisted of the following costs: materials, $10,545; and conversion cost, $4,731. The costs added during the month consisted of: materials, $64,649; and conversion cost, $31,599.
c. How many of the units transferred out of the Mixing Department in April were started and completed during that month?
d. The manager of the Mixing Department stated, "Materials prices jumped from about $1.65 per unit in March to $2.15 per unit in April, but due to good cost control I was able to hold our materials cost to less than $2.15 per unit for the month." Should this manager be rewarded for good cost control?
Answer:
a. EU:
materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680
conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600
b. cost per EU:
materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05
conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05
c. units started and completed during April = 23,700
d. no, he didn't do anything, When a company uses the weighted average process costing method, the cost of beginning WIP is used to determine the cost per equivalent unit. On the other hand, FIFO process costing method doesn't, it only considers costs incurred during the month to calculate cost per equivalent unit.
Explanation:
beginning WIP 5,700 $15,276
materials, $10,545
conversion cost, $4,731
units started 34,100
costs added during the month = $96,248
materials, $64,649
conversion cost, $31,599
units transferred out 29,400 $91,140
ending WIP 10,400 $20,384
materials 70% = 7,280 EU
conversion 50% = 5,200 EU
EU:
materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680
conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600
total cost for materials = $64,649 + $10,545 = $75,194
total cost for conversion = $31,599 + $4,731 = $36,330
cost per EU:
materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05
conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05
units started and completed during April = 29,400 - 5,700 = 23,700

Answer:

Explaination:
Answer:
1 4 5 7
Explanation:
Please discuss the following two scenarios: Both scenarios consist of a loan of $1000 on Jan.1 - to be paid back on Dec. 31. A is the lender and B is the debtor.
Scenario 1: On Nov. 7th, A calls B to see how he is doing. B says he is not doing well. A asks if B will be able to pay the $1000 on Dec. 31. B says probably not. A asks how much B will have and B says about $700. A tells B to pay him $700 on Dec. 31 and that he will not owe him the additional $300. A puts it in writing. On Dec. 31, B pays the agreed upon $700. Then on January 15th, A calls B and tells him that he wants the additional $300.
Scenario 2: Same situation, but on the Nov. 7th phone call, A tells B to pay him the $700 now and then he will not owe him the additional $300. It is put in writing. B pays $700 on Nov. 7th. Then on January 15th, A calls B and tells him that he wants to additional $300. In which scenario can A get the additional $300.
In which scenario can A get the additional $300? It could be in both scenarios, neither or one of them. What do you think?
Answer:
Neither
Explanation:
When A creates a deal of B paying only $700 now or on 31st December with a written commitment that he will not owe $300, it means A has decided to write off the $300. Had A not created any written document and just asked B to pay $700 now and then later on reminded and demanded $300 it would have been fine. A would still be legally right in maintaining that B still owes the balance $300.
However, giving a written commitment of waving off the $300 on payment of $700 now or by 31st Dec which B accepts and also adheres to by paying means that B has fulfilled the new agreement. As A has only floated the new agreement, he cannot go back from his own statements.
In 1998, the Russian government defaulted on its bonds. According to the open-economy macroeconomic model, this should have
Answer:
An increase in the net export and Russian interest rate.

Answer:
Foreign direct investment.
Explanation:
BMW’s vehicle-assembly facility in South Carolina represents a direct investment inside the United States by the German manufacturer. This facility is an example of foreign direct investment.
A foreign direct investment (FDI) can be defined as an investment made by an individual or business entity (investor) into an investment market (industry) located in another country. The investor here, shares a different country of origin from the country where his investment is located.
In a foreign direct investment (FDI), an investor must establish his business, factory and operations in a foreign country or acquire assets in a business that is being operated in a foreign country.
Additionally, foreign direct investment (FDI) are categorized into three (3) main types and these are;
1. Vertical FDI: it involves establishing a different business that is however similar to the main business owned by the investor.
2. Horizontal FDI: it involves establishing the same type of business in a foreign country as owned in the investor's country.
3. Conglomerate FDI: it involves establishing a business that is completely different in another (foreign) country.
The text presents five signs of organizational culture: mission statement, stories & language, physical layout, rules & policies, and rituals.

Organizational culture is what we call the mix of core values and actions that make up an organization, it's mostly and widely used for companies but it also applies to schools, governments, non-profits, and any group of people working together towards a goal.
The mission statement is basically what the organization wants to achieve, or its dreamed goal.
Stories and language are the speech that the organization communicates to the audience or anyone interacting with it.
The physical layouts are the colors and buildings, apps, or any way of direct interaction that any person could have with the organization.
Rules and policies are what dictate the behavior of all the employees and people related to the organization.
And rituals are the activities that the organization does in order to reinforce the values and policies they try to live day by day, doing your own painting is one example of these rituals.
