Understanding how shirking decreases team output
Eleanor sells bottled water from a small stand by the beach. On the last day of summer vacation, many people are on the beach, and Eleanor realizes that she can make a lot more money this day if she hires someone to walk up and down the beach selling water. She finds a college student named Darnell and makes him the following offer: They'll each sell water all day and split their earnings (revenue minus the cost of water) equally at the end of the day. Eleanor knows that if they both work hard, Darnell will earn $110 on the beach and Eleanor will earn $240 at her stand, so they will each take home half of their total revenue: $110+$2402=$175$110+$2402=$175. If Darnell shirks, he'll generate only $60 in earnings. Eleanor does not know that Darnell estimates his personal cost (or disutility) of working hard as opposed to shirking at $30.
Once out of Eleanor's sight, Darnell faces a dilemma: work hard (put in full effort) or shirk (put in low effort).
In terms of Darnell's total utility, it is worse for him to_____ .
Taking into account the loss in utility that working hard brings to Darnell, Eleanor and Darnell together _____ better off if Darnell shirks instead of working hard.
Eleanor knows Darnell will shirk if unsupervised. She considers hiring her good friend Carrie to keep an eye on Darnell. The most Eleanor should be willing to pay Carrie to supervise Darnell, assuming supervision is sufficient to encourage Darnell to work hard, is _______ .
It turns out that Eleanor's friend Carrue is unavilable that day, so Eleanor cannot find a reliable person to watch Darnell. Which of the following arrangements will ensure that Darnell works hard without making Eleanor any worse off than she is when Darnell shirks?
A. Allow Darnell to keep 75% of the revenue from the bottles of water he sells instead of 50%
B. Allow Darnell to keep 57% of the revenue from the bottles of water he sells instead of 50%
C. Pay Darnell $70, regardless of how many bottles of water he sells
D. Make Darnell promise to work hard

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Shirk

are not better of

$30

A. Allow Darnell to keep 75% of the revenue from the bottles of water he sells instead of 50%

Explanation:

Darnell and Eleanor both can work together and their combined total earning will be high. Darnell estimates that his shirking is cost at $30 then Eleanor can pay to supervisor a maximum of $30 for the supervision service for Darnell. The best choice is to hire Carrue as a supervisor for Darnell. If Carrue is not available someday then Darnell can be motivated by allowing him to keep 75% of the revenue generated from him.

Two years ago, Kimberly became a 30 percent partner in the KST Partnership with a contribution of investment land with a $10,000 basis and a $16,000 fair market value. On January 2 of this year, Kimberly has a $15,000 basis in her partnership interest, and none of her pre-contribution gain has been recognized. On January 2 Kimberly receives an operating distribution of a tract of land (not the contributed land) with a $12,000 basis and an $18,000 fair market value.
a. What is Kimberly’s remaining basis in KST after the distribution?
b. What is KST’s basis in the land Kimberly contributed after Kimberly receives this distribution?

Answers

Answer:

A. $6,000

B. $13,000

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine Kimberly’s remaining basis in KST after the distribution

Basis in KST$ 15,000

Add §737 gain $3,000

($15,000-$12,000)

Deduct Carryover basis in land ($12,000)

Remaining basis in KST $6,000

($15,000+$3,000-$12,000).

Therefore Kimberly’s remaining basis in KST after the distribution will be $6,000

B. Calculation to determine KST’s basis in the land Kimberly contributed after Kimberly receives this distribution

KST basis upon contribution $10,000

Add Kimberly’s §737 gain $3,000

($15,000-$12,000)

KST’s basis in land $13,000

($10,000+$3,000)

Therefore KST’s basis in the land Kimberly contributed after Kimberly receives this distribution is $13,000

Montgomery owns a nuclear power plant in the town of Springfield.

Which method would NOT result in Montgomery accounting for the social cost of running the power plant

Answers

Answer:

Subsidize Montgomery for every three-eyed fish they find in the pond.

Explanation:

From the question we are informed about Montgomery who owns a nuclear power plant in the town of Springfield. His power plant dumps substantial quantities of radioactive waste into the local pond, which has given rise to a mutant guppy fish population with three eyes.The town decides to have Montgomery do something about the externality. In this case the method that would NOT result in Montgomery accounting for the social cost of running the power plant is Subsidize Montgomery for every three-eyed fish they find in the pond. Social cost can be regarded as addition of private costs that comes from a transaction as well as costs that is been imposed on the consumers as a result of exposure to transaction that did not compensated or charged for. It is addition of both private and external costs. Therefore, if there is subsidy for three-eyed fish will prevent him from social cost

d. the additional technology fee that is paid per credit hour

Explanation:

Since in the question it is mentioned that the full time students should take minimum 12 credit hours but it would take maximum of 18 credit hours

Now the student signed up for 15 creditor hours and he wants to add one more so the marginal cost or benefit that can impact the decision of the students is that the extra technology fee that should be paid for per credit hour

Stoney Brook Company produces two products (X and Y) from a joint process. Each product may be sold at the split-off point or processed further. Additional processing requires no special facilities, and production costs of further processing are entirely variable and traceable to the products involved. Joint manufacturing costs for the year were $60,000. Sales values and costs were as follows: If Processed Further Product Units Made Sales Price at Split-Off Sales Value Separable Cost X 9,000 $ 40,000 $ 78,000 $ 10,500 Y 6,000 80,000 90,000 7,500 If the joint production costs are allocated based on the net-realizable-value method, the amount of joint cost assigned to product Y would be:

Answers

Answer:

Apportioned joint cost to Product Y = $33,000

Explanation:

The net realizable sales value is the difference between the sales value less the separable cost.

Apportioned joint cost

= applicable net realizable value /Total net realizable value × Joint costs

                                                     $

                                                Net-realizable value

Product X = 78,000-10500=    67,500

Product Y = 90,000-7500=       82,500

Total net-releasable value        150,000

Apportioned joint cost:

Product Y=82500/150,000×  $60,000= $ 33,000

Product Y = $33,000

Answer:

the materials quantity variance for April is $2,552 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the materials quantity variance for April is shown below:

= (standard quantity - actual quantity) × standard rate

= (4,300 units × 8.4 liters - 37,000 liters) × $2.90

=  (36,120 liters  - 37,000 liters) × $2.90

= 880 liters × $2.90

= $2,552 unfavorable

hence, the materials quantity variance for April is $2,552 unfavorable

c. The__________ on the sale of the asset in 2018 is $

Answers

Answer:

A. $191,818

B. $303

C. $11,515 loss

Explanation:

A) Calculation to determine what The adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2017 is

2017 Asset's cost $200,000

Less recovery costs for 2017 and 2018

($910 + $7,272 = $8,182

December 31, 2018 $191,818

($200,000 - $8,182)

Therefore The adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2017 is $191,818

B) Calculation to determine what The cost recovery deduction for 2018 is

Recovery cost = $200,000 x (1 / 27.5) x (0.5 / 12)

Recovery cost = $200,000 x3.636% × .5/12)

Recovery cost = $303

Therefore The cost recovery deduction for 2018 is $303

C) the asset's basis on the date of sale is = $191,818 - $303 = $191,515

Sales price - asset basis = $180,000 - $191,515 = $11,515 loss

If you outsource the production of X to the supplier, how much will your profit change in the short term

Answers

Answer:

Change in profit is Nil

Explanation:

To determine whether to outsource the production of product X or not, we would compare the variable cost internal production to the external purchase price. And then adjust  the net figure for the fixed costs.

For a make or buy decision the relevant cash flows include

1. the differential variable cost of the two options  

2. savings from avoidable fixed costs associated with internal production

Variable cost internal production (2+7+5)                             14

External buy in price                                                               12    

Savings per unit  of bought from outside                             2  

Savings on  1000 units (2× 1,000)                                         2,000

Unavoidable  fixed cost (2  ×    1,000)                                 (2,000)

Operating income (loss) $65,000 $(25,000)
The controller, Peggy Kingman, is concerned about the residential product line. She cannot understand why this line is not more profitable given that the installations of window coverings are less complex for residential customers. In addition, the residential client base resides in close proximity to the company office, so travel costs are not as expensive on a per client visit for residential customers. As a result, she has decided to take a closer look at the overhead costs assigned to the two product lines to determine whether a more accurate product costing model can be developed. Here are the three activity cost pools and related information she developed:
Activity Cost Pools Estimated Overhead Cost Drivers

Answers

Answer:

Scheduling and travel= $80 per hour

Setup time= $170 per set up

Supervision= $0.2 per direct labor dollar

Explanation:

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Commercial Residential

Scheduling and travel 800 550= 1,350

Setup time 450 250=700

Direct labor costs 110,000 290,000= $400,000

Scheduling and travel= 108,000 / 1,350= $80 per hour

Setup time= 119,000 / 700= $170 per set up

Supervision= 80,000 / 400,000= $0.2 per direct labor dollar

Many new ventures focusing on craft beer have been launched. If the goal is to make a profit, perhaps it would have been a better choice to forget making the beer and instead focus on the hops market. There is competition for the available supply of hops, and this is especially true of the organic varieties. Cassidy Brewery uses standards to carefully track their costs. For their Hopalong label their standard for hops is 20 pounds per barrel and their standard rate is $13.00 per pound. In the past period they produced 40 barrels of their Hopalong beer using 830 pounds of hops. The hops had a cost of $15.00 per pound. Compute the total rate variance and the total efficiency variance for the past month. Also, for each variance, indicate whether the variance is favorable or unfavorable.

Answers

Answer:

a. Total rate variance = $1,660 Unfavorable

b. Total efficiency variance = $450 Unfavorable

Explanation:

From the question, we have:

Standard for hops = 20 pounds per barrel

Standard rate = Standard rate for hops = $13.00 per pound

Barrels of Hopalong beer produced = 40

Actual quantity = Actual pounds of hops used = 830 pounds

Standard quantity = Standard pounds of hops = Standard for hops * Barrels of Hopalong beer produced = 20 * 40 = 800 pounds

Actual rate = Actual cost of hops per pound = $15

Therefore, we have:

a. Compute the total rate variance for the past month

Total rate variance = (Actual rate - Standard rate) * Actual quantity = ($15 - $13) * 830 = $1,660 Unfavorable

The total rate variance of $1,660 is unfavorable because the Actual rate is greater than the Standard rate.

b. Compute the total efficiency variance for the past month

Total efficiency variance = (Actual quantity - Standard quantity) * Standard rate = (830 - 800) * $15 = $450 Unfavorable

The total efficiency variance of $450 is unfavorable because the Actual quantity is greater than the Standard quantity.

Answer:

Managing a Company-wide Diversity Program

1. The statement that effectively illustrates a diversity principle is:

Statement 2

You will be better able to increase the diversity of your workforce if you interview candidates with entry-level experience even though it might be ideal to hire someone with years of experience.

2. You should choose statement ___2______as the more appropriate strategy for managing diversity, since it is an example of__managing high standards_______.

3. The statement that indicates one of the diversity principles discussed during your absence is:

a. Surface-level diversity should not be treated as more important than deep-level diversity.

Explanation:

Workplace diversity is an important current topic.  Diversity encourages productivity, creativity, innovation, and increased customer service.  Diversity ensures that our limited worldviews are expanded to include others who are not, and do not think, like us but are humans created in Love and Mercy, to work with us, to make the world a better place.  In today's workplace, a diverse culture looks beyond the familiar-cultural boundaries to embrace diverse peoples without minding their sex, race, sexual orientations, education, and other human attributes.

Able conveyed real property in Michigan to Baker in a correctly draft and signed deed. Baker accurately and immediately recorded the deed with the appropriate county offices. After the recording of the deed, Able accepted money from Charlie and signed a new deed for the same property purporting to convey the property to Charlie. Charlie had not been told of the earlier transfer to Baker. In a dispute between Baker and Charlie, which of the following statements is most accurate.
A. Charlie will prevail over Baker because the deed from Able to Baker fails
B. Charlie will prevail over Baker because Charlie paid money to Able
C. Baker will prevail over Charlie because Baker recorded the deed before a Charlie paid Able for the property
D. Baker will prevail over Charlie, unless Able told Charlie of the prior transfer to Baker since that would have been his obligation

Answers

Answer: C. Baker will prevail over Charlie because Baker recorded the deed before a Charlie paid Able for the property.

Explanation:

As soon as Baker accurately and immediately recorded the deed with the appropriate county offices after the property was conveyed to him, he took over ownership of the property from Able.

Able received money from Charlie and signed a new deed after this had happened so Baker would prevail because Baker, not Able, owns the property and so Able cannot sell what does not belong to him.

Since Baker registered the deed when Charlie paid Able for the land, he will triumph over Charlie.

Title has been transmitted to Baker since Able ceded real property to Baker in a properly drafted and executed deed that was documented with the relevant county agencies. Able has no rights to the land after transfer, thus he can't transmit something that doesn't belong to him.

So, Option "C" is the correct answer to the following question.

In addition, he spends $1150 on rent, $92 on electricity, and $2240 on labor costs each month. Analyze Caleb's business by answering the following questions. (5 points: Part I - 1 point; Part II - 1 point; Part III - 1 point; Part IV - 1 point; Part V - 1 point) Part I: What is Caleb's unit cost per used book that he sells

Answers

Answer: $3.66 per book

Explanation:

Every book that Caleb sells costs him $3.50 and he puts it in a bag that costs $0.16.

Units cost per used book is therefore:

= Unit cost of book + bag cost

= 3.50 + 0.16

= $3.66 per book

Answers

Answer:

Purchases= 20,675 pounds

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production:

Feb= 20,900

Mar= 20,000

One pound of material is required for each finished unit.

Desired ending inventory= 25% of the following month's production needs.

To calculate the purchase required for February, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases= 20,900 + (20,000*0.25) - (20,900*0.25)

Purchases= 20,675

Bryant Company has a factory machine with a book value of $93,100 and a remaining useful life of 5 years. It can be sold for $27,200. A new machine is available at a cost of $430,400. This machine will have a 5-year useful life with no salvage value. The new machine will lower annual variable manufacturing costs from $592,600 to $505,500. Prepare an analysis showing whether the old machine should be retained or replaced.

Answers

Answer:

The old machine should be replaced.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the the analysis showing whether the old machine should be retained or replaced.

From the attached excel file, the following calculation are made:

Variable Manufacturing cost of Retain = Initial Variable Manufacturing cost * remaining useful life of old machine = $592,600 * 5 = $2,963,000

Variable Manufacturing cost of Replace = New Variable Manufacturing cost * Remaining useful life of new machine = $505,500 * 5 = $2,527,500

From the attached excel, it can be observed that the total cost of Retain is $32,200 higher than the total cost of Replace. This therefore implies that the old machine should be replaced.

Round Hammer is comparing two different capital structures: An all-equity plan (Plan I) and a levered plan (Plan II). Under Plan I, the company would have 175,000 shares of stock outstanding. Under Plan II, there would be 125,000 shares of stock outstanding and $2.23 million in debt outstanding. The interest rate on the debt is 8 percent and there are no taxes.
a. Use M&M Proposition I to find the price per share. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
b. What is the value of the firm under each of the two proposed plans? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 32.)

Answers

Answer:

A) total debt = $2,230,000 and it represents 175,000 - 125,000 = 50,000 outstanding shares

price per share = $2,230,000 / 50,000 = $44.60 per share

B) enterprise value = 175,000 x $44.60 =  $7,805,000

According to M&M proposition I, the enterprise value is the same with or without any outstanding debt. So the company's value is the same for both alternatives.

a. As far as the tax code is concerned, HeadBook will increase its expenses by $5,000 in either case. If it pays for the policy, it incurs a $5,000 health care expense. If it raises Vanessa’s salary by $5,000, it incurs $5,000 of salary expense. If HeadBook is profitable and pays corporate profit taxes at a marginal 35 percent rate, by how much will HeadBook’s tax liability be reduced in either case?

Answers

Answer: $1,750

Explanation:

Incurring a health insurance cost of $5,000 or increasing salaries by $5,000 will have the same effect on the taxes because they will both be removed from the income before the taxes are calculated.

The reduction in tax in either case is:

= Expense * Tax rate

= 5,000 * 35%

= $1,750

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of nine assembly robots = $594,000

Unit cost of a robot = $66,000 ($594,000/9)

Expected useful life = 10 years

Expected residual value = $54,000

Unit residual value = $6,000 ($54,000/9)

Depreciable amount for each robot = $60,000 ($66,000 - $6,000)

Straight-line annual depreciation expense = $6,000 ($60,000/10)

Sale of one robot for $40,000 cash:

Accumulated depreciation for one robot on December 31, 20x3 = $18,000

Net book value = $48,000 ($66,000 - $18,000)
