Answer: C: being the bankers' bank.
Explanation:
The Fed is the Central Bank system of the United States. This means that they have certain duties conferred on them in order to ensure that the financial system of the country does not fail.
One of those duties is to be the Bankers' Bank. This means that the Fed can loan money to Commercial banks just like how Commercial banks do to entities. In acting as the lender of last resort and loaning money to banks so that they could survive the 2007 Financial crises, the Fed was acting as the Bank for the banks.
Wight Corporation has provided its contribution format income statement for June. The company produces and sells a single product. Sales (4,400 units) $ 162,800 Variable expenses 79,200 Contribution margin 83,600 Fixed expenses 44,800 Net operating income $ 38,800 If the company sells 4,500 units, its total contribution margin should be closest to:
Answer:
85,500
Explanation:
Calculation for the total contribution margin
First step is to find the Contribution Margin Per Unit
Contribution Margin Per Unit = 83,600 /4,400 Contribution Margin Per Unit= 19 Per units
Second step is to calculate for Contribution Margin at 4,500 Units
Contribution Margin at 4,500 Units
= 19*4,500
Contribution Margin at 4,500 Units = 85,500
Therefore the total contribution margin is closest to 85,500
Sanborn Industries has the following overhead costs and cost drivers. Direct labor hours are estimated at 100,000 for the year.
Activity Cost Pool Cost Driver Est. Overhead Cost Driver Activity
Ordering and Receiving Orders $120,000 500 orders
Machine Setup Setups 297,000 450 setups
Machining Machine hours 1,500,000 125,000 MH
Assembly Parts 1,200,000 1,000,000 parts
Inspection Inspections 300,000 500 inspections
If overhead is applied using traditional-based costing on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:___________.
a) 9.60
b) 12.00
c) 15.00
d) 34.17
Answer:
d) 34.17
Explanation:
we must first calculate the total overhead expenses = $120,000 (ordering and receiving) + $297,000 (machine setup) + $1,500,000 (machining) + $1,200,000 (assembly parts) + $300,000 (inspection) = $3,417,000
since overhead is applied based on direct labor hours, then the predetermined overhead rate = total overhead expenses / total direct labor hours = $3,417,000 / 100,000 labor hours = $34.17 per labor hour
The City of Waterville applied for a grant from the state government to build a pedestrian bridge over the river inside the city’s park. On May 1, the city was notified that it had been awarded a grant of up to $200,000 for the project. The state will provide reimbursement for allowable expenditures. On May 5, the special revenue fund entered into a short-term loan with the General Fund for $200,000 so it could start bridge construction. During the year, the special revenue fund expended $165,000 for allowable bridge construction costs, for which it submitted documentation to the state. Reimbursement was received from the state on December 13, 2017.

Apply What You’ve Learned - Managing Credit Cards and ConsumerLoans
Scenario: You are 30 years old, married, have two children, and household income (take-home pay) of$3,500 per month. Your credit and consumer debt is as follows:_______.
• Car loan, 6% interest rate, $10,000 balance, $295 per month
• Department store card, 28% interest rate, $600 balance, minimum payment 5% of balance
• Discover Card, 12% interest rate, $2,000 balance, minimum payment 2% of balance
• VISA Card, 13% interest rate, $3,000 balance, minimum payment 2% of balance
• MasterCard 1, 14% interest rate, $4,000 balance, minimum payment 2% of balance
• MasterCard 2, 14% interest rate, $0 balance, minimum payment 2% of balance
• Gasoline card, 21% interest rate, $300 balance, minimum payment 5% of balance
Assume all credit cards will assess a $35 late fee and ongoing penalty interest of 8% above the currentrate if you miss a payment. Your recent VISA card statement came with a blank cash advance check(for up to $10,000) with terms of 23.99% APR and a fee of 3% if you use it. Your recent MasterCard 2statement came with a balance transfer oFer (up to $4,000) with no fee and 0% APR for 12 months,after which the normal interest rate applies. You recently found an incorrect amount charged on yourVISA card from a store you frequent often. You’d like to come up with a plan to eliminate all of yourcredit card debt.
In general, is it a good idea to make only minimum payments on your credit cards?
Yes, you can invest the money saved each month to earn interest.
No, it will cause your interest rate to go up.
No, the small payment requirement is mathematically guaranteed to keep you in debt for manyyears.
Yes, this allows you more ±exibility in your cash budget.
Assuming you have $1,500 in your budget this month with which to pay down your credit cards, howmuch should you pay on each card?

Answer:
1) In general, is it a good idea to make only minimum payments on your credit cards?
No, the small payment requirement is mathematically guaranteed to keep you in debt for many years.All you have to do is analyze the interest rates charged by the credit card companies and it is really difficult for any investment to match those interest rates.
2) Assuming you have $1,500 in your budget this month with which to pay down your credit cards, how much should you pay on each card?
I would start with the cards that charge the highest interest rates. I would pay the full balance of the department store card and the gasoline card = $600 + $300 = $900
Since I have $600 left, I would then pay the minimum payments for the cards that charge the least interest rates. I would pay $40 to Discover card and $60 to VISA.
The remaining $500 would be used to pay MasterCard 1 card and lower its balance.

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.

Alternative price indexes
Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator. The GDP deflator for this year is calculated by dividing the_____using______by the_____using_____and multiplying by 100. However, the CPI reflects only the prices of all goods and services.

Product Director: We need to pick the best manager for the Prensabi software project. The project involves the latest technology and is very complicated. For example, this project uses a technology called Stage, which is a motion-capture technique that does not require actors to wear specialized gear to record their movements. Since this is a technical project that requires strong technical skills, we should pick the manager with the strongest technical skills. Executive: The manager needs some familiarity with the technology, but he or she won't actually be writing the software code. The bigger challenge here is to analyze the goals of the project and make sure that it is being developed according to a strong overall vision.

What are the five steps to understanding how foreign born labor impacts native born workers?
Answer:
HOW MUCH DO FOREIGN - BORN WORKERS EARN?
Foreign-born individuals typically earn less than native-born individuals — on average, 83 cents for every dollar earned by their native-born counterparts. That disparity generally holds true across age groups and education levels, with one significant exception. Foreign-born individuals with a bachelor’s degree or more had median weekly earnings of $1,362 per week in 2018, about $53 per week higher than the median for the native-born population with that level of education.
Janet enjoys eating jelly sandwiches and drinking milk. She is particular about proportions, though: For every jelly sandwich she eats, she must drink exactly one glass of milk, and vice versa. Janet can purchase the jelly for her sandwiches in two jar sizes: 20 ounces and 40 ounces. Janet cares only about the total amount of jelly she has available and not at all about the jar size. In other words, she's just as happy with two 20-ounce jars as she is with one 40-ounce jar.
In this scenario, jelly sandwiches and glasses of soda are:___________
a. perfect complements
b. perfect substitutes
c. neither complements or susitutes)
The correct answer is A. Perfect complements
Explanation:
Janet eats jelly sandwiches and milk together; in this context, jelly and milk are complements because these are consumed together. Indeed, every time Janet consumes jelly she consumes milk. Moreover, these are perfect complements because the demand and consumption of both increases or decreases together proportionally. This is because if Janet eats 2 sandwiches this also duplicates the amount of milk she consumes (two glasses of milk). In the same way, this affects the demand for jelly and milk because if Janet drinks more milk she will need to buy more jelly.
If a particular good or product is consumed togetherly is said to be the perfect counterpart. Economically also the consumer uses products in a fixed proportion like cereal and milk are the perfect complementary example.
The correct answer is:
Option A. perfect complements
This can be explained as:
Jelly and milk are paired as they both are utilised togetherly in a combination.Whenever Janet will eat jelly she will drink milk too. The demand is proportionate to each other as jelly in the sandwich will be eaten whenever she will have milk and vice versa.Therefore, this scenario shows perfect complements.

Despite its status as one of the richest countries in the world, Japan a. has a very low level of productivity. b. has few natural resources. c. has very little human capital. d. engages in a relatively small amount of international trade.
Answer:
b. has few natural resources.
Explanation:
Japan is one of the largest economies in the world, and even though it is a country with few natural resources, it managed to reach this level because it is a country whose main economic activities are focused on exports, according to production based on the Toyotist system, which is a on-demand manufacturing system, which reduces waste throughout the production process, which guarantees significant advantages. There is also a culture based on quality, innovation, education and technological development.
Japan's high population density constitutes a high human capital for work, which justifies the greater commercialization of goods and services. All of these factors justify how Japan became the world's third largest economy.

A company looking to expand internationally with little risk would choose?
Answer:
LicensingFranchisingExplanation:
There are no options but Licensing as well as Franchising are some of the least riskiest ways to expand internationally.
With Licensing, the company looking to expand simply sells licenses to various companies in different countries giving them the right to use their image. Basically, the company the license is sold to gets access to the seller's intellectual property but then can run their business with a significant degree of autonomy.
Franchising represents another way to expand with little risk. It involves a company giving a license to another company to sell and sometimes produce their products as well as image rights. The company will give the franchisee (company that gets the license) the knowledge and training required to maintain the franchise and in exchange, franchisee pays a fee.
Both of these methods ensure that the name and brand of a company spread internationally whilst making money from it. Risk is minimized because the investment in other countries is low to nothing.

Amy and Mitchell share equally in the profits, losses, and capital of the accrual basis AM Products LLC. The LLC does not need to report financial information to any third parties, so capital accounts are determined using tax rules (rather than GAAP). Amy is a managing member of the LLC (treated as a general partner) and is a U.S. person. At the beginning of the current tax year, Amy's capital account has a balance of $960,000, and the LLC has debts of $624,000 payable to unrelated parties. The debts are recourse to the LLC, but neither of the LLC members has personally guaranteed them. Assume that all LLC debt is shared equally between the partners. The following information about AM's operations for the current year is obtained from the LLC's records.
Ordinary income $900,000
W-2 wages to employees 200,000
Depreciation expense 300,000
Interest income from bond 4,000
Long-term capital loss 6,000
Short-term capital gain 12,000
Charitable contribution 4,000
Cash distribution to Amy 20,000
Unadjusted basis of partnership depreciable property 1,600,000
Year-end LLC debt payable to unrelated parties is $140,000.
Required:
What income, gains, losses, and deductions does Amy report on her income tax return?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Share of ordinary income:
= (Ordinary income - Wages - Depreciation)/2
= (900,000 - 200,000 - 300,000)/2
= 400,000/2
= 200,000
Share of net short term capital gain
= (12,000 - 6,000) × 50%
= 6,000 × 0.5
= 3,000
Share of interest income
= 4000 × 50%
= 4000 × 0.5
= 2000
Share of charitable contribution deduction
= 4000 × 50%
= 4000 × 0.5
= 2000

Explanation:
Ian loaned his friend $20,000 to start a new business. He considers this loan to be an investment, and therefore requires his friend to pay him an interest rate of 7% on the loan. He also expects his friend to pay back the loan over the next four years by making annual payments at the end of each year. Ian texted and asked that you help him calculate the annual payments that he should expect to receive so that he can recover his initial investment and earn the agreed-upon 7% on his investment.
Required:
Calculate the annual payment and complete the following capital recovery schedule:
Year Beginning Amount Payment Interest Paid Principal Paid Ending Balance
Answer:
Ian and His Friend's Business Loan

In respect to organizational structure and decision making, a "Flat Structure" is best characterized as:___________
a) A management structure characterized by an overall narrow span of management, a relatively large number of hierarchical levels, tight control, and reduced communication overhead. Decision-making can be quite rapid, if it occurs from the top down.
b) A management structure characterized by a wide span of control and relatively few hierarchical levels, loose control, and ease of delegation. Decision-making is often slower, as it involves a high degree of integration across the company.
c) The location of decision making authority near top organizational levels.
Similar to a tall structure, this expedites decision-making from the top down.
d) The location of decision making authority is relatively evenly dispersed across the company. This works well when creativity and independent operations create value for the organization.
e) None of the answers in this answer set are correct.
Answer:
A management structure characterized by a wide span of control and relatively few hierarchical levels, loose control, and ease of delegation. Decision-making is often slower, as it involves a high degree of integration across the company.
Explanation:
A flat structure in organisations are characteristized by few or no levels of management between the top management and employees.
This results in less supervision of employees (that is less control). Staff have a higher control over their jobs and have some freedom on how they execute tasks.
Employees are also more involved in decision making. Although there needs to be integrated or involve a large number of people agreeing.
So decision making is relatively slow.
