Why should investors know the difference between nominal and real interest rates?
O to know what they are likely to lose
O to understand changes in monetary policy
to guarantee an investment's profitability
O to recognize the effects of inflation

Answer:

to recognize the effects of inflation

Explanation:

The nominal rate of interest is the interest earned before adjusting for inflation. The nominal interest rate is simple to recognize and calculate. It is the rate quoted on loans, deposits, bonds, and mutual funds. The nominal rate communicates to the investor the percentage of returns to expect from their investment. The higher the percentage, the better the returns. However, nominal interest does not take account of inflation.

Inflation erode the purchasing power of money. A high inflation rate will mean that any investment gains may not benefit the investor as the currency will have weakened. The real interest rate considers inflation rates. It tells the investor the actual gain from an investment after adjusting for inflation.

Answer:

To recognize the effects inflation.

Garvey's Fine Furnishings manufactures upscale custom furniture. currently uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor hours to allocate its of manufacturing overhead to individual jobs.​ However, ​, owner and​ CEO, is considering refining the​ company's costing system by using departmental overhead rates.​ Currently, the Machining Department incurs of manufacturing overhead while the Finishing Department incurs of manufacturing overhead. has identified machine hours​ (MH) as the primary manufacturing overhead cost driver in the Machining Department and direct labor​ (DL) hours as the primary cost driver in the Finishing Department.
Requirement 1. Compute the plantwide overhead rate assuming that Garvey's expects to incur 30,000 total DL hours during the year First identify the formula, then compute the rate.
Total manufacturing overhead / Cost allocation base = Plantwide overhead
(estimated) rate
$1,290,000 / 30,000 = 43
Requirement 2. Compute departmental overhead rates assuming that Garvey's expects to incur 14,500 MH in the Machining Department and 17,500 DL hours in the Finishing Department during the year. First identify the formula, then compute the rate for each department.
Total department / Cost allocation base = Departmental
overhead (estimated) overhead rate
Machining 870,000 / 14,500 = 60 per mach hour
Finishing 420,000 / 17,500 = 24 per DL hour
Requirement 3. If Garvey's continues to use the plantwide overhead rate, how much manufacturing overhead would be allocated to Job 450 and Job 455? Identify th formula, then calculate the amount of manufacturing overhead that would be allocated to the jobs if the plantwide overhead rate is used.
Actual use of Manufacturing overhead
Plantwide overhead rate x allocation base = allocated
Job 450 43 x 5 = 215
Job 455 43 x 5 = 215
Requirement 4. Based on your answers to Requirements 2 and 3, does the plantwide overhead rate overcost or undercost either job? Explain. If Garvey's sells its furniture at 125% of cost, will its choice of allocation systems affect product pricing? Explain.
The single plantwide rate undercosts Job 450 by $1 and undercosts Job 455 by $216.

In 2021, Ryan Management collected rent revenue for 2022 tenant occupancy. For financial reporting, the rent is recorded as deferred revenue and then recognized as revenue in the period tenants occupy rental property. For tax reporting, the rent is taxed when collected in 2021. The deferred portion of the rent collected in 2021 was $50 million. No temporary differences existed at the beginning of the year, and the tax rate is 25%. Suppose the deferred portion of the rent collected was $40 million at the end of 2022.

Middle management is the intermediate management level accountable to top management and responsible for leading lower level managers. Which of the following is not a typical function of middle management? Middle management is at the center of a hierarchical organization, subordinate to the senior management but above the lowest levels of operational staff. Middle managers are accountable to top management for their department’s function. They provide guidance to lower-level managers and inspire them to perform better. Middle managers balance a functional or technical understanding of those who report to them with the interpersonal skills of a manager. This form of leadership requires a strong ability to communicate, mentor, train, hire, organize, optimize processes, and prioritize. Middle-management functions generally revolve around enabling teams of workers to perform effectively and efficiently and reporting these performance indicators to upper management. Middle management may be reduced in organizations as a result of reorganization. Such changes can take the form of downsizing," delayering," and outsourcing.
