The difference between the price a consumer would be willing to pay for a cone of ice cream and the actual market price that she pays is a measure of her consumer surplus.
Consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum amount a consumer is willing to pay for a product or service and the actual price they pay. It is a measure of the benefit or satisfaction that a consumer receives when purchasing a good or service.
For example, if a consumer is willing to pay $5 for a cone of ice cream but only has to pay $3, the consumer surplus is $2. This $2 represents the benefit or satisfaction that the consumer receives, as they receive the good for a lower price than they were willing to pay for it.
Consumer surplus can be calculated by subtracting the price the consumer pays from the maximum amount the consumer is willing to pay for the good.

The Bell Weather Co. is a new firm in a rapidly growing industry. The company is planning on increasing its annual dividend by 15 percent a year for the next 4 years and then decreasing the growth rate to 6 percent per year. The company just paid its annual dividend in the amount of $2.90 per share. What is the current value of one share of this stock if the required rate of return is 8.40 percent
Answer:
$130.97
Explanation:
The value of the firm can be determined by finding the present value of the dividend payments using the two stage dividend growth model
In the 2 stage dividend growth model, dividend is characterised by a fast growth. After this stage , growth in dividend becomes stable
Present value in the first year = (2.90 x 1.15) / 1.084 = $3.08
Present value in the second year = (2.90 x 1.15²) / 1.084² = $3.26
Present value in the third year = (2.90 x 1.15³) / 1.084³ = $3.46
Present value in the fourth year = (2.90 x [tex]1.15^{4}[/tex]) / [tex]1.084^{4}[/tex] = $3.67
Present value in the second stage = ($3.67 x 1.06) / (0.084 - 0.06) = $162.24
$162.24 / [tex]1.084^{4}[/tex] = $117.50
The value of the stock = sum of present values in the first stage of growth + present value in the second stage of growth
$3.08 + $3.26 + $3.46 + $3.67 + $117.50 = $130.97

If the company desires a profit of $7,500,000, what is the selling price per case? Round answer to two decimal places.
$ 0 price per case
Answer: $72.50
Explanation:
Let the selling price per case be represented by x.
Based on the information you can in the question, we will have an equation as:
(80000 × x) = 12,000,000 + 7,500,000 + (800,000 × 30) + (0.25 × 800000x
800000x = 12,000,000 + 7,500,000
+ (800,000 × 30) + (0.25 × 800000x)
800000x = 43500000 + 200000x
Collect like terms
800000x - 200000x = 43,500,000
600,000x = 43500000
x = 43,500,000 / 600,000
x = 72.50
Selling price per case is $72.50

In an effort to reduce costs, many regional power companies want to lower their safety stock of electricity transformers. To support this desire, a large transformer OEM will store safety stock of transformers in a FedEx warehouse in Memphis, Tennessee in order to insure quick air delivery to any of these is power companies should the need arise. This collaboration will result in lower overall inventory across the supply chain, making it possible for all parties to lower their costs.
1. The OEM has signed up 14 power companies on this rapid replenishment program. On average, each of these power companies used to hold 38 transformers in their safety stock. In total, how many transformers would these companies hold?
2. To maintain the same service level after this transition, how many units (transformers) would the OEM need to hold (or pool) in the FedEx warehouse?
3. After making this change for these power companies and OEM, by how many units (transformers) will inventory go down?
4. By what percentage would their inventory decrease by consolidating their inventory from the dealerships into the warehouse?
Answer:
1. Total transformers held by power companies = 532
2. The total units of transformers that OEM needs to hold in the FedEx warehouse = 38
3. The inventory of transformers will go down by 494.
4. The percentage of the decrease = 93%.
Explanation:
Power companies signed up on the rapid replenishment program = 14
Average number of transformers held in safety stock by each power company = 38
Total number of transformers in safety stock = 532 (14 * 38)
Number of transformers needed in the FedEx warehouse = 38
Inventory will go down by 494 (532 - 38)
Percentage of inventory decrease = 93% (494/532 * 100)

Quantities on hand at the end of one month may not be sufficient to last until the next month's count. If the company has taken this into account in establishing reorder levels, then it is very possible that the company carrying too large an investment in inventory which can be costly.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The correct option is - True
Reason -
When the company is considering the quantities in stock available at the end of the month in duly setting their reorder level that indicates it creates buffer stock in company's account and not following just-in-time model, whereby the quantity being ordered when there is demand for the same.

The plant manager has asked you to do a cost analysis to determine when currently owned equipment should be replaced. The manager stated that under no circumstances will the existing equipment be retained longer than two more years and that once it is replaced, a contractor will provide the same service from then on at a cost of $97,000 per year. The salvage value of the currently owned equipment is estimated to be $37,000 now, $30,000 in 1 year, and $19,000 two years from now. The operating cost is expected to be $85,000 per year. Using an interest rate of 10% per year, determine when the defending equipment should be retired. Annual Worth of Defender, Year 1
Answer:
Year 1 Annual Worth of Defender -$95,700
Explanation:
Calculation to determine when the defending equipment should be retired
Year 1 Total Annual worth=-$37,000(AP 10%,1)-$85,000+($30,000 (AP 10%,1)
Year 1 Total Annual worth=-$37,000(1.10)-$85,000+$30,000(1.000)
Year 1 Total Annual worth= -$95,700
Therefore Total Annual worth of currently owned equipment for year 1 is -$95,700
Year 2 Total Annual worth=-$37,000(AP 10%,2)-$85,000+($30,000 (AP 10%,2)
Year 2 Total Annual worth=-$37,000(0.57619)-$85,000+$19,000(0.47619)
Year 2 Total Annual worth=-$97,217
Therefore the Total Annual worth of currently owned equipment for year 2 is $-97,271
Therefore Based on the above calculation the
the economic service life of equipment will be year 1 reason been that Year 1 Total annual worth of costs of the amount of -$95,700 is lesser in a situation where the equipment is been retained for 1 year.

Suppose you bought 1,100 shares of stock at an initial price of $46 per share. The stock paid a dividend of $.46 per share during the following year, and the share price at the end of the year was $41. a. Compute your total dollar return on this investment
Answer:
$-4994
Explanation:
Total dollar return = number of stocks bought x (dividend return + price return)
price return is the return on investment as a result of appreciation or depreciation of share price
Dividend return is the return on investment from dividend earned
price return = price at the end of the year - price at the beginning of the year
$41 - $46 = $-5
1100 x ($-5 + $0.46) = $-4994

Answer and Explanation:
In a nutshell, we can say that geography is the science that studies physical space and its elements, and their relationship with human beings. This physical space, corresponds to the planet earth and everything that is formed in it and everything that is formed by it. This term also refers to outer space and all its elements. in this way, geography was able to determine the space between regions, the vegetative composition of a place, the urban composition of a place, the influence of the atmosphere on living beings, how the stars are formed, how the climate of a region is impacted by atmospheric changes, among others.
At year-end, Chief Company has a balance of $10,000 in accounts receivable of which $1,000 is more than 30 days overdue. Chief has a credit balance of $100 in the allowance for doubtful accounts before any year-end adjustments. Using the aging of accounts receivable method, Chief estimates that 1% of current accounts and 10% of accounts over thirty days are uncollectible. What is the amount of bad debt expense
Answer:
$90
Explanation:
Total accounts receivable = $10,000
Overdue accounts (30 days) = $1,000
Current account = Total accounts receivable - Overdue accounts (30 days) = $10,000 - $1,000 = $9,000
Bad debt expense = Accounts receivable x Percentage estimated as uncollectible - Existing credit balance in accounts receivable
Bad debt expense = ($9,000 * 1%) + ($1,000 * 10%) - $100
Bad debt expense = $90 + $100 - $100
Bad debt expense = $90

Year 2 4.5
Year 1 4.0
a-3
Year 2 5.0
Year 1 6.1
b. Year 2
Explanation:
a-1. Computation for the gross profit percentage for both years using this formula
Gross profit percentage = Gross profit / Sales
Let plug in the formula
Year 2 =( $ 750,000-495,000)/$ 750,000 = 34%
Year 1 = ($ 610,000-$408,000)/$ 610,000 = 33%
a-2. Computation for the inventory turnover for both years using this formula
Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory during the year
Let plug in the formula
Year 2 = 495,000 /110,000 = 4.5
Year 1 = 408,000/102,000= 4.0
a-3. Computation for the accounts receivable turnover for both years using this formula
Accounts receivable turnover = Sales (on account) / Average receivables during the year
Let plug in the formula
Year 2 = $ 750,000 /150,000 = 5.0
Year 1 = $ 610,000 /100,000 = 6.1
b. Based on the above calculation Year 2 show a positive trend.
Blossom Chemicals Company acquires a delivery truck at a cost of $32,800 on January 1, 2022. The truck is expected to have a salvage value of $4,200 at the end of its 4-year useful life. Assuming the declining-balance depreciation rate is double the straight-line rate, compute annual depreciation for the first and second years under the declining-balance method.
Answer:
$16400
$8200
Explanation:
Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset
Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life)
Depreciation factor = 2/4 = 0.5
Depreciation expense in year 1 = 0.5 x $32,800 = $16,400
Book value at the beginning of year 2 = $32,800 - $16,400 = $16400
Depreciation expense in year 2 = 0.5 x $16,400= $8200
Compute the Z-scores for the second observation of the following data values: X: 462 490 350 294 574
Answer:
0.5
Explanation:
Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation
Given the data:
X : 462 490 350 294 574
The second observation = 490
The mean and standard deviation of the data could be obtained using a calculator :
Mean = 434
standard deviation = 112
ZSCORE = (490 - 434) / 112
ZSCORE = 56 / 112
ZSCORE = 0.5
