A company sells 100 computers for $300 each on account to a customer. The computer cost the company $125 each. The company recorded the revenue and cost of goods sold. The company allows customers a right of return which they estimate to be 2% of sales. Using the Financial Statement effects template, how should the company record the estimated returns?

Roberds Tech is a for-profit vocational school. The school bases its budgets on two measures of activity (i.e., cost drivers), namely student and course. The school uses the following data in its budgeting:

Fixed element
per month
Variable element per student Variable element per course
Revenue $ 0 $ 228 $ 0
Faculty wages $ 0 $ 0 $ 2,960
Course supplies $ 0 $ 38 $ 26
Administrative expenses $ 25,800 $ 13 $ 38

In March, the school budgeted for 1,770 students and 74 courses. The school's income statement showing the actual results for the month appears below:

Required:

Prepare a flexible budget performance report showing both the school's activity variances and revenue and spending variances for March. Label each variance as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

The manufacturer's suggested retail prices for the two models show a $10 price differential. Use a 0.05 level of significance and test that the mean difference between the prices of the two models is $10.

Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Calculate the p-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

(b)

What is the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the mean prices of the two models (in dollars)? (Round your answers to nearest cent. Use the mean price for the deluxe model − the mean price for the standard model.)

  1. You have been asked to ascertain whether there is a relationship between income level and the amount of money donated to the campaign. Sample data concerning these two categorical variables is given in appendix three below. The numbers in the table represent the numbers of supporters in various income categories who have donated certain amounts of money. At both the 2% and 5% levels of significance, is there evidence of a statistical relationship between income level and amount of money donated to the campaign?

Curtiss Construction Company, Inc., entered into a fixed-price contract with Axelrod Associates on July 1, 2018, to construct a four-story office building. At that time, Curtiss estimated that it would take between two and three years to complete the project. The total contract price for construction of the building is $4,540,000. Curtiss concludes that the contract does not qualify for revenue recognition over time. The building was completed on December 31, 2020. Estimated percentage of completion, accumulated contract costs incurred, estimated costs to complete the contract, and accumulated billings to Axelrod under the contract were as follows:

We assume that our wages will increase as we gain experience and become more valuable to our employers. Wages also increase because of inflation. By examining a sample of employees at a given point in time, we can look at part of the picture. How does length of service (LOS) relate to wages? The data here (data162.dat) is the LOS in months and wages for 60 women who work in Indiana banks. Wages are yearly total income divided by the number of weeks worked. We have multiplied wages by a constant for reasons of confidentiality.

(a) Plot wages versus LOS. Consider the relationship and whether or not linear regression might be appropriate. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn in this graph.)

(b) Find the least-squares line. Summarize the significance test for the slope. What do you conclude? Wages = + LOS

t =

P =

(c) State carefully what the slope tells you about the relationship between wages and length of service.

(d) Give a 95% confidence interval for the slope.

A retailer of electronic equipment received six DVD players from the manufacturer. Three of the DVD players were damaged in the shipment. The retailer sold two DVD players to two customers. Consider the problem of calculating the probability that the customers receive damaged DVD players. [2] Can a binomial distribution be used for the solution of the above problem? Why or why not? [1] What kind of probability distribution can be used to solve this problem? [1] What is the probability that both customers received damaged DVD players? [1] What is the probability that only one of the two customers received a defective DVD player?
