A 6% increase in Electricity costs. 1. A 2.5% increase in material cost When the material costs increases, the affect will occur on the master budget. The 2.5 % increase on the material cost means we will be paying more; as a result the profit will be less, unless we increase the selling price, reduction of employees (redundancy), to cover the change. Here below are show the calculation of the change: Material cost is 50355.15 2.5% of 50355.15 = 50355.15x 2.5 = 1258.87 100 The new material cost is = 50355.15 + 1258.87 =
If the sales outlook for the coming three years was only 20,000,000 and B.E. continued producing at the rate of 30,000,000 units, a total of 10,000,000 units would be dumped into ending inventory at the end of each year once again reducing costs of goods sold and falsely increasing income. By the end of year 2013, B.E. Company would have 35,000,000 units sitting in ending inventory taking up space and costing money to store. Once again if the president’s bonus is based off of net income, this situation is the most favorable for a high paying bonus and encourages stockpiling inventory to inflate net income.

Fixed and variable costs should be adjusted to maximize profit • Will is going to need to figure out how much of his product he is willing to offer consumers at different prices. • The demand for this type of product should be researched before setting the price • If there is a high demand for this product, that would help determine selling price • Will has setup a small website to introduce his products selling material where the copyright has lapsed for $10 and copyrighted materials for $15. • In the first six months 1,000 of the older books were sold generating revenue of $10,000 and 2,000 of the copyrighted materials were sol generating revenue of $30,000. • The current market price for books on CD is about $20 for a 500 page book. • It was recommended to Will, by his friend Elsa that he increases the price of his product to allow for additional funds for advertising.
In the short-run, a larger government deficit would cause an increase to “total planned expenditures and higher aggregate demand “(Miller, 2012, pg. 308). The real GDP equilibrium would rise above the full-employment level because of deficit spending. The price level would also increase. In the long-run, the economy “adjusted to changes in all factors” and the “equilibrium real GDP remains at its full-employment level” even though the increase in the budget deficit causes a rise in the aggregate demand.
As a result, the quantity and price of good A increase. a. Compute nominal GDP in the base year and later year. b. Compute real GDP in the base and later years (in base-year prices). c. Compute the GDP deflator in the later year, using your answers to parts a and b. d. Compute a fixed-weight price index for the later year, using the base-year quantities as weights. e. Which price index rises faster, the GDP deflator (Paasche) index or the fixed-weight index (Laspeyres) index 1 Question 3 (20 marks) .
Outlays are securities that are used to make purchases; or to improve an asset that is already held and that will increase the value of Caledonia Products for a length of time. Caledonia Products has allocated $100,000.00 to get production started for the company; $7,900,000.00 to purchase a new operating facility along with equipment. The cost of equipment and plant, plus shipping and installation charges, plus net working capital equals a project’s initial outlay. The cost for shipping and installation is an additional $100,000.00 resulting in $8,100,000.00 in initial cash flow. These are the main examples of capital outlay.

If Head Start programs received their full allocated monies from the ACF’s proposed 2009 budget increase, then programs would still operate in a negative stage by $923 million. This would cause a funding cut of 12% at the end of the budget period. This budget cut does not take into consideration the additional millions of dollars needed to operate according to the new requirements approved in December 2007. Allocated amounts for collaborative grants during the 2007 fiscal year level; has been allocated to be at least 2.5%, but no more than 3% for training and technical assistance. 20% of this allocation is to be used for providing assistance to Early Head Start
