Answer:

D

Explanation:

                                          A             B             C

Contribution per unit      20          30           40

Machine hours per unit  2.5          3.25       4.5

Contribution per hour     8             9.23       8.89

Product B has the highest contribution per hour .

It is stated that the capacity is constrained by the number of hours the machine can run during a period . and all products produce will be sold. This has made the machine hour the determinant factor in the situation.

Therefore product B should be emphasized if the goal is to maximize contribution margin.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": is immune from review under the act of state doctrine.

Explanation:

The Act of State Doctrine states that every sovereign state is bound to respect the independence of every other sovereign state, and the courts will not sit in judgment of another government's acts done within its own territory. In the case, as Argentina is no jurisdiction of the United States, the U.S. citizens and businesses who had accounts in the South American cannot rely on U.S. policies to resolve their problems even if the Argentinian government has violated international law.

Answer:

$608,000

Explanation:

For the indirect method, the below steps are applicable.

Net income $600,000 + Add non cash expense (depreciation) $45,000

= $645,000

We will need to account for changes in assets; which is add sources of cash and subtract use of cash. Therefore, net cash flow from operating activities is ;

= $645,000 + (-$25,000) + (-$12,000)

= $645,000 - $25,000 - $12,000

= $608,000

Note: The above negative signs indicates cash usage which reduces accounts payable and increases accounts receivable.

Risk posture or cybersecurity posture is the general status or overall defense of the cybersecurity program in place in an organization to guard against cyber attacks and data breaches. For a company to maintain reasonable cyber security posture as there is no fool proof cybersecurity posture, there is need for regular continuous assessment of risk exposures and potential loopholes across the company's digital infrastructure. There are different digital and sophisticated infrastructures utilized by am organizations and most if not all are well prone to cyber attacks. These infrastructures are used by employees for work e. g-email, went servers, phones, networking devices and cloud programs etc . Therefore each employee must be educated in the need to safeguard company data by looking out for traps set by cyber attackers such as phishing in email and many other loopholes. Vulnerability tests need to be performed at regular intervals and reports monitored and analyzed to protect against a potential source of cyber attack.

The First level Allocations will be:

Of a total cost of $2,540,000

Travel allocated costs is $915,000

Pick Up and Delivery is $451,000

Customer Service is $690,000

Others is $484,000

Explanation:

the next level of allocation will be to determine the cost rate based on the Activity Measures, however these were not provided in the question

Activity Based Costing is a costing technique that allocates costs based on the activity level of certain pre-determined cost drivers.

Instead of taking the pool of costs and dividing it by Volume to arrive at an Average Costs, Activity Based Costing believes all components leading to the cost generated should bear the burden of the cost by determining the Driver rate per activity.

If from the example we have worked above, we are told the number of miles covered is 20,000 miles and the actual Cost we worked out for Travels was $960,000. This implies we have an activity rate of $48 Per mile covered as travels costs.

The same would apply to Customer Services if for example 3,000 customers were attended to in the period, the Rate Per Customer will become $690,000 divided by 3,000 = $230 Per Customer

With these indices, it is easy to then allocate costs on the basis of miles traveled + Customers Attended to etc

Final answer:

To allocate costs to the activity cost pools, multiply the total costs by the resource consumption percentages provided for each activity.

Explanation:

In order to allocate costs to the activity cost pools, we need to use the distribution of resource consumption percentages provided. Let's calculate the cost allocation for each activity cost pool:

1. Travel cost pool: Multiply total costs by 50% for driver and guard wages, 70% for vehicle operating expense, and 60% for vehicle depreciation.
2. Pickup and Delivery cost pool: Multiply total costs by 35% for driver and guard wages, 5% for vehicle operating expense, and 15% for vehicle depreciation.
3. Customer Service cost pool: Multiply total costs by 10% for driver and guard wages, 0% for vehicle operating expense, and 0% for vehicle depreciation, and 90% for customer representative salaries and expenses.
4. Other cost pool: Multiply total costs by 5% for driver and guard wages, 25% for vehicle operating expense, and 25% for vehicle depreciation, and 10% for customer representative salaries and expenses, and 50% for office expenses, and 35% for administrative expenses.

Answer: it reduces the supply of loanable funds which raises the interest rate

Explanation: Contractionary monetary policy is a monetary policy that reduces the supply of money and increases interest rates and is carried out by the Fed through selling of bonds. This reduces the supply of loanable funds and increases the interest rate. It is driven by increases in the various base interest rates with a goal to reduce inflation by limiting the amount of active money in circulation.
