Unobserved effects versus idiosyncratic errors
Suppose you have two years' worth of panel data on wages and work experience of adults; however, the data set has no further information on the characteristics of the individuals in the data set. Specifically, you have cross-sectional wage and work experience data on individuals in 2006, and cross-sectional data on those same individuals in 2012. You plan to use the following fixed effects model to analyze the effects of work experience on wages:
log (wage it ) = βo + 80 yr10, + B1 experit + ai + uit
where
wage it = yearly wage of individual i at time t, in dollars
yrl0, =1 in the year 2010 (t = 2), and =0 otherwise (t = 1)
exper = years of work experience of individual i, at time t
ai = unobserved (time-invariant) effect
uit = idiosyncratic error
Two other factors that can influence wage, which you have not controlled for in your model, are height and industry of employment.
Use the following table to indicate which term in the fixed effects model captures the effect of height, which term captures the effect of industry of employment, and which term captures the effect of work experience.
ai uit β1
Work experience
Height
Industry of employment

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The terms that capture the effect of industry of employment and work experience are:

Industry of employment = uit

Work experience = β1

Height = ai

Explanation:

a) Data:

                                         ai      uit       β1

Work experience

Height

Industry of employment

b) Explanation

The "idiosyncratic error" (uit) describes the unobserved factors that impact the dependent variable.  For example, industry of employment, and this factor vary from one-time period to the next.

The unobserved (time-invariant) effect (ai) refers to the height of the industry of employment, which does not vary over time.  

Finally, work experience is depicted by β1, which is a factor that changes with time.

Business Projected Growth Rate Current market share
Shipping Low 1%

Railroad loading Low 75%
Freight forwarding High 70%

Which of the following divisions would you take profits from and continue to run?
a. Railroad loading
b. Shipping
c. Freight forwarding
d. Cargo inspection

Answers

Answer: a. Railroad loading

Explanation:

This question relates to the BCG matrix which allows a company with multiple divisions to know how to deal with its various divisions based on their growth rate and market share.

The question specifically relates to a matrix called "Cash cows". Cash cows are divisions that have a significant market share but a low growth rate. These divisions are stable and bring more money into the company than they cost to run.

This allows us to take profits from them and invest in other. The Railroad loading controls a significant market share of 75% but has a low growth rate so is a Cash cow.

If a monopoly charges higher prices to consumers who buy smaller quantities than to consumers who buy larger quantities, then

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Monopoly is the form of market in which the single market trading products and services are discussed and then the possibility of producing good economic profit is given. The monopoly is linked to the absence of a competitive scenario.

In large volumes, when the customer buys items, individuals are only impacted by the tiniest price fluctuation. Consumers who buy fewer amounts of items are, by contrast, subject to higher pricing as the smallest price changes do not much affect them. There is therefore increased demand price elasticity for customers who purchase bigger amounts of items.

Delta Company produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company’s normal activity level of 86,400 units per year is: Direct materials $ 2.40 Direct labor $ 2.00 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 0.90 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 3.75 Variable selling and administrative expenses $ 1.40 Fixed selling and administrative expenses $ 1.00 The normal selling price is $22.00 per unit. The company’s capacity is 106,800 units per year. An order has been received from a mail-order house for 1,700 units at a special price of $19.00 per unit. This order would not affect regular sales or the company’s total fixed costs. Required: 1. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the special order? 2. As a separate matter from the special order, assume the company’s inventory includes 1,000 units of this product that were produced last year and that are inferior to the current model. The units must be sold through regular channels at reduced prices. The company does not expect the selling of these inferior units to have any effect on the sales of its current model. What unit cost is relevant for establishing a minimum selling price for the inferior units?

Answers

Answer:

1. The financial advantage of accepting the special order is $20,910.

2. The relevant unit cost is the variable selling and administrative expenses of $1.40 per unit.

Explanation:

1. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the special order?

Since this order would not affect regular sales or the company's total fixed costs, it implies that only the variable costs will be considered to determine the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the special order.

Therefore, we have:

Total variable cost per unit = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Variable selling and administrative expenses = $2.40 + $2.00 + $0.90 + $1.40 = $6.70

Special order financial advantage (disadvantage) = (Special price per unit - Total variable cost per unit) * Units of special order = ($19.00 - $6.70) * 1,700 = $20,910

Therefore, the financial advantage of accepting the special order is $20,910.

2. As a separate matter from the special order, assume the company’s inventory includes 1,000 units of this product that were produced last year and that are inferior to the current model. The units must be sold through regular channels at reduced prices. The company does not expect the selling of these inferior units to have any effect on the sales of its current model. What unit cost is relevant for establishing a minimum selling price for the inferior units?

Since these units are inferior to the current model and must be sold through regular channels at reduced prices, the unit cost that is relevant for establishing a minimum selling price for the inferior units is therefore the variable selling and administrative expenses of $1.40 per unit.

The management of Nicto Company plans to have an inventory at the end of each month equal to 30% of the next month's sales. Budgeted sales in units over the next three months are 87,000 in October, 127,000 in November, and 107,000 in December. Budgeted production for November would be:

Answers

Answer:

Production= 121,000

Explanation:

To calculate the budgeted production for November, we need to use the following formula:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production=  127,000 + (107,000*0.3) - (127,000*0.3)

Production= 127,000 + 32,100 - 38,100

Production= 121,000

Construction Cost Annual O&M
A $500,000 $25,000
B 640,000 10,000

Answers

Answer:

B should be selected.

Explanation:

Below is the calculation of net present worth:

Present value of A = -500000 - 25000 * (P/A, 7%,18)

Present value = -500000 - 25000 * 10.059087  

Present value = -751477.17

Present value of B = -640000 - 10000 * (P/A, 7%,18)

Present value = -640000 - 10000 * 10.059087

Present value = -740590.87

The present value of B is lower so it will be selected.

The financial statements of the Sunland Company reports net sales of $828000 and accounts receivable of $79200 and $43200 at the beginning of the year and end of year, respectively. What is the average collection period for accounts receivable in days

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given the above information, the average collection period in days is computed as

= Average balance of account receivables / Net credit sales × 365

Average balance of account receivables = ($79,200 + $43,200) / 2

= $61,200

Net credit sales = $828,000

= $61,200 / $828,000 × 365

= 26.97 days

= 27 days

Hence the average collection period in days is 27 days

As reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the CPI for Airfare in 2263 was 586.1 (using a base year of 1914 = 100). The CPI for Airfare in 2264 was 605.7. Based on this data, what was the inflation rate of airfare from 2263 to 2264?

Answers

Answer: 3.34%

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to calculate the difference in CPI from the year 2263 to 2264 which will be:

= 605.7 - 586.1

= 19.6

Then, the inflation rate will be:

= Difference in CPI / Base CPI × 100

= 19.6/586.1 × 100

= 3.34%

The inflation rate is 3.34%.

What would cause an economy to be producing at a point inside its production possibilities curve?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: the lack of effectivization in the use of their resources inside the economy to obtain the best outcomes possibles.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the economic theory the term known as production possibilities curve refers to a strategic tool, a graphic that can be used by the professionals of the area in order to understand how the economy is working with its resources, if the economy is producing well enough then the economy should be getting great development results and the point inside the graphic should be in the limit of the curve, but if the point is in the inside of the curve then that means that the resources inside that particulary economy are not being fully use to their best in order to obtain the best outcome so that will explain that there is still possibility to expand the production according to the theory of the tool itself.

The financial statements of the Kingbird, Inc. reports net sales of $323700 and accounts receivable of $49000 and $29000 at the beginning of the year and end of year, respectively. What is the accounts receivable turnover for Kingbird

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given that;

Net sales = $323,700

Beginning accounts receivables = $49,000

Ending accounts receivables = $29,000

Account receivable turnover is computed as

= Net credit sales / Average accounts receivables

Average accounts receivables = $49,000 + $29,000 / 2 = $39,000

Net sales = $323,700

Then,

Accounts receivable turnover = $323,700 / $39,000

Answers

Answer:

b. it is appropriate to borrow if the return on the assets is greater than the cost of the financing.

Explanation:

A leverage can be defined as a process which typically involves the use of fixed-charged assets or items in a business with the intention of multiplying potential financial gains and returns.

In Financial accounting, the concept of leverage is that it is appropriate for a business firm to borrow an amount of money (debt), if the return on the assets (capital gain or income) is greater than the cost of the financing (debt or borrowed money).

Basically, financial leverage which is also known as trading on equity, is the utilization of debt (borrowed money) to acquire or purchase new assets with the intent and expectation that the income generated from these assets would exceed the cost incurred from borrowing. Thus, a business that engages in financial leveraging assumes that it would generate a higher income or capital gain from the amount of debt (borrowed money) used in its capital structure.

You own a portfolio that has a total value of $185,000 and it is invested in Stock D with a beta of .91 and Stock E with a beta of 1.33. The beta of your portfolio is equal to the market beta. What is the dollar amount of your investment in Stock D

Answers

Answer:

$145,357.14

Explanation:

The computation of the dollar amount of your investment in Stock D is shown below:

Let us assume the  investment in D be $x

So,  

The investment in E is ($185,000 - x)

As we know that  

Portfolio beta= Respective beta × Respective investment weight

1 = (x ÷ 185,000 × 0.91 ) +(185,000 - x) ÷ 185,000 × 1.33

Here

Beta of market = 1

And, the Beta of risk-free assets=0

(1 × 185000) = 0.91x + 246050 - 1.33x

185,000 = 0.91x + 246050 - 1.33x

x = (246050 - 185,000) ÷ (1.33 - 0.91)

= $145,357.14

You place a stop-loss order to sell 500 shares of AAPL with a stop price of $180. The current price is $185. How much will you receive for each share if during the trading day AAPL declines to $170 and closes the trading day at $188

Answers

Answer:
