b. good x must be an inferior good.
c. WARP is violated.
d. good x must be a normal good.

One investor is trying to derive the implied discount rate by comparing an annuity and an annuity due.

All the other information regarding these two investments are similar, what's the implied discount rate
Answer:
the implied discount rate is 6.29%
Explanation:
The computation of the implied discount rate is shown below;
= (Future value of an annuity due ÷ future value of annuity) - 1
= ($52,169 ÷ $49,081) - 1
= 6.29%
Hence, the implied discount rate is 6.29%

Analysts estimate that a bond has a 40 percent probability of being priced at $950 and a 60 percent probability of being priced at $1,050 one year from today. The bond is also callable at any time at $1,010. What is the expected value of this bond in one year?
A) $1,000
B) $980
C) $1,010
D) $995
E) $986
Answer:
E) $986
Explanation:
The computation of the expected value of the bond in one year is shown below;
= (Probability × Price of bond) + (Probability × Callable price bond)
= (0.4 × $950) + (0.60 × $1,010)
= $986
Hence, the expected value of the bond in one year is $986
Therefore the correct option is E.

Scenario: Money Supply Changes II Charlotte withdraws $8,000 from her checkable bank deposit to pay tuition this semester. Assume that the reserve requirement is 20% and that banks do not hold excess reserves. As a result of the withdrawal, required reserves: don't change. decrease by $8,000. decrease by $1,600. decrease by $6,400.
Answer: decrease by $1,600
Explanation:
Charlotte withdraws $8,000 from her account. When she first paid in that $8,000, the bank had to keep some of it as a reserve requirement. That requirement was that they keep 20%.
Now that she is withdrawing the money, the bank would have to retrieve that 20% from the reserve requirement in order to give it back to Charlotte.
That 20% is:
= 20% * 8,000
= $1,600
PowerTrain Sports Inc. manufactures and sells two styles of All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs), the Mountain Monster and Desert Dragon, from a single manufacturing facility. The manufacturing facility operates at 100% of capacity. The following per-unit information is available for the two products:
Mountain Monster Desert Dragon
Sales price $5,400.00 $5,250.00
Variable cost of goods sold 3,285.00 3,400.00
Manufacturing margin $2,115.00 $1,850.00
Variable selling expenses 1,035.00 905
Contribution margin $1,080.00 $945.00
Fixed expenses 485 310
Income from operations $595.00 $635.00
In addition, the following sales unit volume information for the period is as follows:
Mountain Monster Desert Dragon
Sales unit volume 5,000 4,850
Required:
a. Prepare a contribution margin by product report. Calculate the contribution margin ratio for each.
b. What advice would you give to the management of PowerTrain Sports Inc. regarding the relative profitability of the two products?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The contribution margin ratio for Mountain Monster will be:
Revenue = 5400 × 5000 = 27000000
Variable cost of goods sold = 3285 × 5000 = 16425000
Manufacturing margin = 2115 × 5000 = 10575000
Variable selling expense = 1035 × 5000 = 5175000
Contribution margin = 1080 × 5000 = 5400000
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Revenue = 5400000/27000000 = 0.2 = 20%
The contribution margin ratio for Desert Dragon will be:
Revenue = 5250 × 4850 = 25462500
Variable cost of goods sold = 3400 × 4850 = 16490000
Manufacturing margin = 1850 × 4850 = 8972500
Variable selling expense = 905 × 4850 = 4389250
Contribution margin = 945 × 4850 = 4583250
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Revenue = 4583250/25462500 = 0.18 = 18%
b. What advice would you give to the management of PowerTrain Sports Inc. regarding the relative profitability of the two products?
The Mountain Monster line provides the (larger) total contribution margin and the (larger) contribution margin ratio. If the sales mix were shifted more toward the (Mountain Monster) line, the overall profitability of the company would increase.
The endpoint method computes the percent change as a percent of the starting value.
a. True
b. False
Answer: True
Explanation:
Endpoint elasticity measures the price change and demand during the endpoint of the change. It uses a simple formula for the calculation of the price and the demand relationships. The formula is:
= (D2 - D1)/D1 ÷ (P2 - P1)/P1
where,
D2 = new demand
D1 = initial demand
P2 = new price
P1 = initial price.
The statement that "The endpoint method computes the percent change as a percent of the starting value" is true.
Using the data below for Ace Guitar Company: Region A Region B Sales $786,500 $643,500 Cost of goods sold 298,900 244,500 Selling expenses 188,800 154,400 Service department expenses Purchasing $240,200 Payroll accounting 160,200 Allocate service department expenses proportionally to the sales of each region, determine the divisional income from operations for the Regions A and B. For interim calculations, round the percentages to one decimal place. Region A $fill in the blank 1 Region B $fill in the blank 2
Solution :
Calculation of income from operations
Sales Region A Region B
Cost of goods sold 643,500 786,500
Selling expenses 244,500 298,900
Service department expenses 154,400 188,800
Purchasing (working note - 1) 108,090 132,110
Payroll accounting (working note - 2) 72,090 88,110
Income from expenses $ 64,420 $ 78,580
Working note 1
Allocation of purchasing expenses:
A region = [tex]$240,200 \times \frac{643500}{(643500+786500)}$[/tex]
= $ 108,090
B region = [tex]$240,200 \times \frac{786500}{(643500+786500)}$[/tex]
= $ 132,110
Working note 2
Allocation of payroll accounting expenses.
A region = 160200 x 0.45 (sales ratio)
= $ 72,090
B region = 160,200 x 0.55 (sales ratio)
= $ 88,110
