An important application of regression analysis in accounting is in the estimation of cost. by collecting data on volume and cost and using the least squares method to develop an estimated regression equation relating volume and cost, an accountant can estimate the cost associated with a particular manufacturing volume. consider the following sample of production volumes and total cost data for a manufacturing operation. production volume (units) total cost ($) 400 4000 450 5000 550 5400 600 5900 700 6400 750 7000 compute b 1 and b 0 (to 2 decimals if necessary). b 1 b 0 complete the estimated regression equation (to 2 decimals if necessary). = + x what is the variable cost per unit produced (to 1 decimal)? $ compute the coefficient of determination (to 4 decimals). note: report r 2 between 0 and 1. r 2 = what percentage of the variation in total cost can be explained by the production volume (to 2 decimals)? % the company's production schedule shows 500 units must be produced next month. what is the estimated total cost for this operation (to 2 decimals)? $

Mae jong corp. issues $1,000,000 of 10% bonds payable which may be converted into 10,000 shares of $2 par value ordinary shares. the market rate of interest on similar bonds is 12%. interest is payable annually on december 31, and the bonds were issued for total proceeds of $1,000,000. in accounting for these bonds, mae jong corp. will: (a) first assign a value to the equity component, then determine the liability component. (b) assign no value to the equity component since the conversion privilege is not separable from the bond.(c) first assign a value to the liability component based on the face amount of the bond.(d) use the “with-and-without” method to value the compound instrument.
