Economists Kenneth Chay and Michael Greenstone found that in the two years following the passage of the Clean Air Act of 1970, the sharp reduction in air pollution also led to a decline in infant deaths. Although this and other studies provide compelling evidence of the link between pollution and infant health, it is not clear that reductions from the much lower levels of ambient pollution today would have the same effect. Which of the following reasons could explain this?
A) The cost of pollution abatement today is much higher than it was in the 1970s. Thus, it would be far more costly to achieve the same level of benefit today as the benefit achieved in 1970.
B) When levels of pollution are high, the marginal benefit of reducing pollution also is high. It follows therefore that the benefit of reducing air pollution in 1970 would be much higher than the benefit from a proportional reduction in air pollution today when the level of pollution is much lower.
C) Today, the level of pollution is much higher. Therefore, it will take a much larger reduction in air pollution to reap benefits similar to those in 1970.
D) When levels of pollution are high, the marginal benefit of reducing pollution is low. Therefore, it was necessary to significantly reduce air pollution in 1970 before benefits could be realized. Today, when the level of pollution is much lower, such drastic measures are unnecessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: B) When levels of pollution are high, the marginal benefit of reducing pollution also is high. It follows therefore that the benefit of reducing air pollution in 1970 would be much higher than the benefit from a proportional reduction in air pollution today when the level of pollution is much lower.

Explanation:

Marginal benefits follow a returns to scale model which means that overtime, the benefits received per additional unit of output is less than the benefit before it.

In the context of pollution, there was much more pollution in 1970 so reducing pollution gave a high marginal benefit. As the air became cleaner however and pollution dropped, the benefit began decreasing because there was less pollution to clean and benefit from.

Using an incremental analysis approach, Burns should consider accepting this special order only if the price per unit offered by Allen is at least:

Answers

Answer:

Burns Industries

Using an incremental analysis approach, Burns should consider accepting this special order only if the price per unit offered by Allen is at least:

above $38 (the variable cost per unit).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Monthly production and sales units = 18,000

Production capacity per month = 33,000 units

Costs at the 18,000-unit-per-month level of production:

Variable costs = $38

Fixed costs =        23

Total per unit =  $61

Selling price per unit = $78

Special offer for 4,800 saws per month, without changing the fixed manufacturing costs.

b) Incremental analysis approach is a management decision technique that specifies that only relevant, marginal, or differential costs should be taken into account.  It rules out the inclusion of sunk or fixed costs, which do not change between alternatives.

The net benefit (additional income) from processing the oranges into orange juice instead of selling as is would be: rev: 12_08_2020_QC_CS-243270 Multiple Choice $16,000. $(16,000). $(3,500). $3,500. $33,500.

Answers

Answer:

C. $3,500

Explanation:

The total cost of orange juice = $26,500 + $12,500

The total cost of orange juice = $39,000

So, the profit on the orange juice = $46,000 - $39,000 = $7,000

Profit when oranges are sold without juice = $30,000 - $26,500

Profit when oranges are sold without juice = $3,500

So, extra income = $7,000 - $3,500 = $3,500

Thus, the net benefit (additional income) from processing the oranges into orange juice instead of selling as is would be is $3,500

Masterson Company's budgeted production calls for 69,000 units in April and 65,000 units in May of a key raw material that costs $1.75 per unit. Each month's ending raw materials inventory should equal 30% of the following month's budgeted materials. The April 1 inventory for this material is 20,700 unit. What is the budgeted materials needed in units for April

Answers

Answer:

67,800 units

Explanation:

Given the information above,

The budgeted production for April = 69,000 units

The budgeted production for May = 65,000 units

The cost of raw material per unit = $1.75

At the end of each month, the inventory should be = 30%

The April 1 inventory = 20,700 units

Therefore, the budgeted material in units required for April production

= Materials needed + Ending inventory requirement - Beginning inventory available

= 69,000 + (65,000 × 30%) - 20,700

= 69,000 + 19,500 - 20,700

= 67,800 units

You are considering a project that requires an initial investment of $98,000 with a cost of capital of 14%. You expect the project to have a five-year life, and produce cash flows of $19,000 in year 1, $32,000 in year 2, $64,000 in year 3, $26,000 in year 4 and $10,000 in year 5. What is this project’s net present value? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

NPV= 7,076.59

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment= $98,000

Cash flows:

Cf1= 19,000

Cf2= 32,000

Cf3= 64,000

Cf4= 26,000

Cf5= 10,000

To calculate the NPV, we need to use the following formula:

NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]:

Cf1= 19,000/1.14= 16,666.67

Cf2= 32,000/1.14^2= 24,622.96

Cf3= 64,000/1.14^3= 43,198.18

Cf4= 26,000/1.14^4= 15,394.09

Cf5= 10,000/1.14^5= 5,193.69

∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]= 105,076.59

Now, the NPV:

NPV= -98,000 + 105,076.59

NPV= 7,076.59

Determine:
(a) the contribution margin ratio,
(b) the unit contribution margin, and
(c) income from operations.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a. Contribution margin ratio

= (Unit price - Variable cost per unit) / Unit price

Unit price = $30 per unit

Variable cost per unit = $24 per unit

Therefore,

Contribution margin ratio = ($30 - $24) / $30

Contribution margin = $0.2

Waterway Industries is planning to sell 1000 boxes of ceramic tile, with production estimated at 670 boxes during May. Each box of tile requires 44 pounds of clay mix and a 0.75 hour of direct labor. Clay mix costs $0.40 per pound and employees of the company are paid $16 per hour. Manufacturing overhead is applied at a rate of 110% of direct labor costs. Waterway has 4200 pounds of clay mix in beginning inventory and wants to have 3900 pounds in ending inventory. What is the total amount to be budgeted for manufacturing overhead for the month

Answers

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $8,844

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 670 boxes

Each box of tile requires 0.75 hours of direct labor.

Direct labor rate= $16 per hour.

Manufacturing overhead is applied at a rate of 110% of direct labor costs.

First, we need to determine the total direct labor costs:

Direct labor hours= 670*0.75= 502.5

Direct labor costs= 502.5*16= $8,040

To calculate the applied overhead, we need to use the following formula:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 1.1*8,040

Allocated MOH= $8,844

Lynn has an account that ears interest at annual rate of 5% percent. Interest is compounded quarterly. Lynn’s account is $4000. What is the balance in her account at the end of the year

Answers

Answer:

Ending balance in account = $4,203.8 (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Starting balance in account = $4,000

Rate of interest annually = 5%

Number of year = 1

Find:

Ending balance in account

Computation:

Compounded quarterly

So,

Number of interest period = 1 x 4 = 4

Rate of interest quarterly = 5% / 4 = 1.25% = 0.0125

So,

A = P[1+r]ⁿ

Ending balance in account = 4,000[1+0.0125]⁴

Ending balance in account = 4,000[1.0125]⁴

Ending balance in account = 4,000[1.05094]

Ending balance in account = 4203.76

Ending balance in account = $4,203.8 (Approx.)

Explanation:

A hedge fund is made up of relatively liquid assets that are used to improve performance though short selling, leverage and derivatives.

There is use of complex trading techniques, risk management, and portfolio construction.

Usually a spike in returns occurs during December, this is called the Santa effect.

Managers receive an incentive fee when there is a good past performance of hedge funds.

So during December they tend to inflate the value of hedge funds.

This results in stronger valuation for low liquidity funds

How do deductions affect the amount of a paycheck?

Answers

Deductions are amounts that are subtracted from an employee's gross pay (their total earnings before any deductions or taxes are taken out) to determine their net pay.

Several types of deductions may be taken out of a paycheck, including taxes, insurance premiums, and retirement plan contributions.

Additionally, some deductions, such as those for 401(k) contributions, are made on a pre-tax basis, which means that they are taken out of an employee's gross pay before taxes are calculated. Other deductions, such as taxes and insurance premiums, are taken out of an employee's gross pay after taxes have been calculated.

Employers must abide by the laws and regulations of the state and federal governments when it comes to deductions, and provide their employees with detailed information about the deductions taken out of their paychecks.

In summary, deductions are amounts that are subtracted from an employee's gross pay to determine their net pay and can include taxes, insurance premiums, and retirement plan contributions. Employers must take these deductions legally and should provide employees with detailed information about what deductions are being taken out of their paychecks.

= $9.40 + $6.40 + $2.20 + $1.26 + $2.90

= $22.16

Therefore, the cost of making the component should be compared to the price of buying the component at $22.16

Assume you just purchased 100 shares of Apple stocks at $300. You are worrying that the competition from other tablet PC and smart phone producers will have a negative impact on Apple stock prices in 1 month. Generally speaking, you are still quite bullish on Apple stock. In order to hedge against this downside risk, you establish a protective put position by buying a put option contract with around 1-month maturity on Apple stock. However, the premium of the put option with strike price at $300 is $12, which is quite expensive. If you feel purchasing the put option with strike price at $300 and $12 premium is too expensive, what else can we do to reduce the cost of protective put position

Answers

Answer:

If you believe that the premium is too expensive, then you should try to purchase another put option with a lower strike price. This will probably reduce your potential profits, but it will also decrease the amount of money that you will pay for the put options. For example, a put option with a strike price of $290 might be worth $5.

Explain right to be heard with examples

Answers

The right to be heard means that, depending on their age and maturity, children can be involved in decisions and issues that affect them.

What is the right to be heard?The right to be heard (including the participation of children) is a principle of child rights as defined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. According to article 12 of the Convention, children have the right to express their views on all matters that affect them, and their views must be given due weight according to their age and maturity. This right applies equally to children's participation in social and political affairs, and to judicial and administrative proceedings. As a general principle, children's right to be heard should be addressed not only as vulnerable individuals with special protection needs, but also as informed decision makers, rights holders and active members of society. It reflects the child's notion of 'agency', The right to a hearing in article 12 is closely related to other articles of the Convention, which together form the so-called 'participation rights' of children and the recognition of children as citizens with rights holders.

Home mortgage interest $5,000

Charitable contributions $7,000

Unreimbursed employee expenses Eliminated from 2019

[$33,000-(280,000*10%)]

Casualty Loss Eliminated from 2019

Linda's Allowable itemized deduction for the year $27,000

($10,000+$5,000+$7,000+$5,000)

Therefore Linda's Allowable itemized deduction for the year is $27,000
