Answer:
None of the country have comparative advantage in producing food.
Explanation:
Marland and Teckana are the two countries who produces food and clothing. Marland can produce 20 units of food or 120 units of clothing while Teckana can produce 20 units of food or 80 units of clothing. Since both countries can produce same units of food neither country has comparative advantage in producing food. If the countries engage in exchange for 1 unit of food for 5 units of clothing Teckana country can benefit from the trade because it will get 100 units of clothing for 20 units of food.

Leone received a special order for 1,200 units of the product. The only additional cost to Leone would be foreign import taxes of $2 per unit. If Leone is able to sell all of the current production domestically, what would be the minimum sales price that Leone would consider for this special order
Answer:
Leone Corporation
The minimum sales price that Leone should consider for this special order is:
= $16.20 per unit.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Normal selling price = $21
Standard costs:
Direct materials $2
Direct labor 3
Overhead (70% fixed) 10
Total $15
Variable costs:
Direct materials $2
Direct labor 3
Overhead (30% fixed) 3
Total $8
Contribution per unit $13 ($21 - $8)
Contribution margin ratio = $62%
Costs of special order:
Variable costs $8 * 1,200 = $9,600
Import taxes $2 * 1,200 = 2,400
Total variable costs = $10
Selling price = $16.20 ($10 * 1.62)
Seymour Corporation manufactures batons. Seymour can manufacture 300,000 batons a year at a variable cost of $750,000 and a fixed cost of $450,000. Based on Seymour's predictions, 240,000 batons will be sold at the regular price of $5.00 each. In addition, a special order was placed for 60,000 batons to be sold at a 40 percent discount off the regular price. The unit relevant cost per unit for Seymour's decision is Select one: a. $3.00 b. $1.50 c. $2.50 d. $4.00

A put option that expires in six months with an exercise price of $45 sells for $2.34. The stock is currently priced at $48, and the risk-free rate is 3.5 percent per year, compounded continuously. What is the price of a call option with the same exercise price
Answer: $6.12
Explanation:
The price of a call option with the same exercise price will be calculated thus:
According to Put-Call Parity, it should be noted that the Call Price will be:
= Put Price + Stock Price - [Exercise Price × e ^-(r × t)]
= $2.34 + $48 - [$45 × e ^ -[0.035 * (6/12)]]
= $50.34 - [$45 × 0.9827]
= $50.34 - $44.22
= $6.12
Therefore, the price is $6.12
Luke Company has three divisions: Peak, View, and Grand. The company has a hurdle rate of 5.01 percent. Selected operating data for the three divisions follow: Peak View Grand Sales revenue$332,000$233,000$311,000 Cost of goods sold 204,000 116,000 183,000 Miscellaneous operating expenses 36,000 30,000 33,000 Average invested assets 1,310,000 920,000 1,105,000 Required: 1. Compute the return on investment for each division. 2. Compute the residual income for each division.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1. The return on investment is
As we know that
Return on Investment = Net operating profit ÷ average invested assets × 100
But before that the Net Operating Profit should be determined
Particulars Peak View Grand
Sales revenue $332,000 $233,000 $311,000
Less: Cost of
goods sold ($204,000) ($116,000) ($183,000)
Miscellaneous
operating Expenses ($36,000) ($30,000) ($33,000)
Net Profit $92,000 $87,000 $95,000
Now
Return on Investment is
For peak, it is
= $92,000 ÷ $1,310,000
= 7.02%
for view, it is
= $87,000 ÷ $920,000
= 9.46%
for grand, it is
= $95,000 ÷ $1,105,000
= 8.60%
2. The residual income is
We know that
Residual Income = Net operating income - (Minimum required rate of return × average invested assets)
For Peak, it is
= ($92,000 - (5.01% of $1,310,000)
= $26,369
For view, it is
= ($87,000 - (5.01% of $920,000)
= $40,908
And, for grand, it is
= ($95,000 - (5.01% of $1,105,000)
= $39,640

Loan Amount (P) = $15,500
Quarterly Interest Rate (n) = 4.00% [16.00% / 4]
Number of period (n) = 20 Periods [5 * 4]
Quarterly Loan Payment = [P * {r*(1+r)^n} ] / [(1+r)^n - 1]
= [$15,500 * {0.04 * (1+0.04)^20}] / [(1+0.04)^20 - 1]
= [$15,500 * {0.04 * 2.1911231}] / [2.1911231 - 1]
= [$15,500*0.0876449] / 1.1911231

Are executive pay levels unreasonable? Why or why not
Answer:
In my opinion, some corporate salaries for high-ranking executives are excessively high for the functions that these people have in these companies and the impact that their work has on their economy and on the well-being of society as a whole.
It is that, although we live in a capitalist, free and democratic society in which everyone has the right to earn the sum of money that their employer is willing to pay, the truth is that in certain cases (or in most cases ) Said salaries are not justified based on the contributions that said executives make in their day-to-day work.
When Elle's Espresso Bar increased its price by 10 percent, the quantity of coffee that Elle sold decreased by 40 percent.
When Elle and all her competitors cut their prices by 10 percent, the quantity of coffee sold by Elle increased by only 4 percent.
The price elasticity of demand for Elle's Espresso Bar coffee is
nothing.
Answer:
4
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
40 / 10 = 4
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.

Swifty Football Co. had a player contract with Watts that is recorded in its books at $8340000 on July 1, 2020. Blossom Football Co. had a player contract with Kurtz that is recorded in its books at $10700000 on July 1, 2020. On this date, Swifty traded Watts to Blossom for Kurtz and paid a cash difference of $1070000. The fair value of the Kurtz contract was $12600000 on the exchange date. The exchange had no commercial substance. After the exchange, the Kurtz contract should be recorded in Swifty's books at:_______.
Answer:
"$9,410,000" is the appropriate answer.
Explanation:
Given that,
Fair value,
= $12600000
Cash difference,
= $1070000
Books value before transaction,
= $8340000
Now,
The deferred gain will be:
= [tex](Fair \ value-Cash \ difference)-Books \ value \ before \ transaction[/tex]
= [tex](12600000 -1070000)-8340000[/tex]
= [tex]11530000 -8340000[/tex]
= [tex]3,190,000[/tex] ($)
hence,
The Kurtz contact value will be:
= Fair value - Deferred gain
= [tex]12600000-3190000[/tex]
= [tex]9,410,000[/tex] ($)
