Additionally, foreign direct investment (FDI) are categorized into three (3) main types and these are;

1. Vertical FDI: it involves establishing a different business that is however similar to the main business owned by the investor.

2. Horizontal FDI: it involves establishing the same type of business in a foreign country as owned in the investor's country.

3. Conglomerate FDI: it involves establishing a business that is completely different in another (foreign) country.

A check register shows a balance of $152.34. The bank statement shows that a check for $75.00 deposited by the account owner was drawn against insufficient funds and was returned. A charge for $2.00 was also deducted by the bank because of the return. Compute the adjusted cash balance of the check register.

Answers

Answer:

$150.34

Explanation:

The $75 check has been drawn against insufficient funds and has been returned so this check won't be included in the adjusted cash balance of the check register.

A charge for $2.0 will be deducted from the balance shown by the cash register above to calculate the adjusted cash balance of the check register.

Adjusted cash balance of the check register = $152.34 - $2

Adjusted cash balance of the check register = $150.34

Cooperative San José of southern Sonora state in Mexico makes a unique syrup using cane sugar and local herbs. The syrup is sold in small bottles and is prized as a flavoring for drinks and for use in desserts. The bottles are sold for $12 each. The first stage in the production process is carried out in the Mixing Department, which removes foreign matter from the raw materials and mixes them in the proper proportions in large vats. The company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system.

A hastily prepared report for the Mixing Department for April appears below:

Units to be accounted for:
Work in process, April 1 (materials 90% complete; conversion 80% complete) 5,700
Started into production 34,100
Total units to be accounted for 39,800
Units accounted for as follows:
Transferred to next department 29,400
Work in process, April 30 (materials 70% complete; conversion 50% complete) 10,400
Total units accounted for 39,800

Cost Reconciliation Cost to be accounted for:

Work in process, April 1 $15,276
Cost added during the month 96,248
Total cost to be accounted for $111,524
Cost accounted for as follows:
Work in process, April 30 $20,384
Transferred to next department 91,140
Total cost accounted for $111,524

Required:

a. What were the Mixing Department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for April?
b. What were the Mixing Department's cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for April? The beginning inventory consisted of the following costs: materials, $10,545; and conversion cost, $4,731. The costs added during the month consisted of: materials, $64,649; and conversion cost, $31,599.
c. How many of the units transferred out of the Mixing Department in April were started and completed during that month?
d. The manager of the Mixing Department stated, "Materials prices jumped from about $1.65 per unit in March to $2.15 per unit in April, but due to good cost control I was able to hold our materials cost to less than $2.15 per unit for the month." Should this manager be rewarded for good cost control?

Answers

Answer:

a. EU:

materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680

conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600

b. cost per EU:

materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05

conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05

c. units started and completed during April = 23,700

d. no, he didn't do anything, When a company uses the weighted average process costing method, the cost of beginning WIP is used to determine the cost per equivalent unit. On the other hand, FIFO process costing method doesn't, it only considers costs incurred during the month to calculate cost per equivalent unit.

Explanation:

beginning WIP 5,700 $15,276

materials, $10,545

conversion cost, $4,731

units started 34,100

costs added during the month = $96,248

materials, $64,649

conversion cost, $31,599

units transferred out 29,400 $91,140

ending WIP 10,400 $20,384

materials 70% = 7,280 EU

conversion 50% = 5,200 EU

EU:

materials = 29,400 + 7,280 = 36,680

conversion = 29,400 + 5,200 = 34,600

total cost for materials = $64,649 + $10,545 = $75,194

total cost for conversion = $31,599 + $4,731 = $36,330

cost per EU:

materials = $75,194 / 36,680 = $2.05

conversion = $36,330 / 34,600 = $1.05

units started and completed during April = 29,400 - 5,700 = 23,700

Alice and Bob entered into a forward contract some time ago. Alice has the long position, while Bob has the short position. The forward contract will mature in three months and has a delivery price of $40. The current forward price for the contract is $42. The three-month risk-free interest rate (with continuous compounding) is 8%. What is the value Bob's position?

Answers

Answer:

$ - 1.96

Explanation:

After three months, Alice (long the contract) can buy the underlying by paying the delivery price of $40 which is $2 less than $42 the long position would have to pay if the contract was entered today.

DATA

Delivery price = $40

The three-month risk-free interest rate (with continuous compounding) =8%.

The current forward price = $42

Solution

So based on the present situation, Alice would be in $2 profit at the end of 3 months and Bob would be in $2 loss

Present value of Bob's loss (with continuous compounding) = 2\times e^{-0.08\times 0.25}

Present value of Bob's loss (with continuous compounding) = $1.96

The value of Bob's position is $ - 1.96

Last month Empire Company had a $35,280 profit on sales of $287,000. Fixed costs are $68,040 a month. By how much would sales be able to decrease for Empire to still break even

Answers

Answer:

sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even

Explanation:

gross profit = net income + fixed costs = $35,280 + $68,040 = $103,320

COGS = total sales - gross profit = $287,000 - $103,320 = $183,680

contribution margin ratio = $103,320 / $287,000 = 36%

break even point in $ = $68,040 / 36% = $189,000

sales might decrease by $287,000 - $189,000 = $98,000 and the company will still break even

Specify the year to switchover. Determine the depreciation amounts using the ​% declining balance and​ straight-line methods and BV amounts for each year

Answers

Answer:

the numbers are missing, so I will use another question as an example:

the asset's cost is $100,000useful life is 5 yearsno salvage value150% declining balance

straight line depreciation = $100,000 / 5 = $20,000

150% declining balance depreciation year 1 = 1.5 x $100,000 x 1/5 = $30,000, since it is higher than straight line we will use declining balance

book value at end of year 1 = $100,000 - $30,000 = $70,000

straight line deprecation = $70,000 / 4 = $17,500

150% declining balance depreciation year 2 = 1.5 x $70,000 x 1/5 = $28,000, since it is higher than straight line we will use declining balance

book value at end of year 2 = $70,000 - $28,000 = $42,000

straight line depreciation = $42,000 / 3 = $14,000, since it is higher than declining balance we will use straight line ⇒ switchover year

150% declining balance depreciation year 3 = 1.5 x $42,000 x 1/5 = $12,600

book value at end of year 3 = $42,000 - $14,000 = $28,000

depreciation year 4 = $14,000 (straight line)

book value at end of year 4 = $28,000 - $14,000 = $14,000

depreciation year 5 = $14,000 (straight line)

book value at end of year 5 = $14,000 - $14,000 = $0

Suppose you receive $100 at the end of each year for the next three years. a. If the interest rate is 8%, what is the present value of these cash flows? (Answer: $257) b. What is the future value in three years of the present value you computed in (a)? (Answer: $324.61) c. Suppose you deposit the cash flows in a bank account that pays 8% interest per year. What is the balance in the account at the end of each of the next three years (after your deposit is made)? How does the final bank balance compare with your answer in (b)?

a) PV = $100/1.08 + $100/1.08² + $100/1.08³ = $257.71

b) FV = $257.71 x (1 + 8%)³ = $324.64

c) FV = ($100 x 1.08²) + ($100 x 1.08) + $100 = $324.64

it is exactly the same as the answer for (b)

Explanation:

SY Manufacturers (SYM) is producing T-shirts in three colors: red, blue, and white. The monthly demand for each color is 3,487 units. Each shirt requires 0.75 pound of raw cotton that is imported from the Luft-Geshfet-Textile (LGT) Company in Brazil. The purchasing price per pound is $1.55 (paid only when the cotton arrives at SYM's facilities) and transportation cost by sea is $0.70 per pound. The traveling time from LGT’s facility in Brazil to the SYM facility in the United States is two weeks. The cost of placing a cotton order, by SYM, is $186 and the annual interest rate that SYM is facing is 32 percent of total cost per pound.
a. What is the optimal order quantity of cotton? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Optimal order quantity pounds
b. How frequently should the company order cotton? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Company orders once every months
c. Assuming that the first order is needed on 1-Jul, when should SYM place the order?
17-Jun
1-Jul
15-Jul
d. How many orders will SYM place during the next year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Number of orders times
e. What is the resulting annual holding cost? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Annual holding cost $ per year
f. What is the resulting annual ordering cost?
Annual ordering cost $
g. If the annual interest cost is only 5 percent, how will it affect the annual number of orders, the optimal batch size, and the average inventory?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. The optimal order quantity can be calculated as:

= √2DS/H

where

D = 3 × 12 × 3487 × 0. 75

= 94149

Total cost incurred during purchase

= $1.55 + $0.70

= $2.25

Setup cost (S) = $186

Holding cost

= 32% × $2.25

= 0.32 × $2.25

= $0.72

Optimal order quantity

= √(2 × 94149 × 186)/0.72

= 6974.50

b. This will be calculated as:

Annual demand / EOQ

= 94149/6974.50

= 13.50

The company should order cotton 13.5 times per year.

c. Since the first order is needed on 1-July and lead time is 2 weeks, SYM should place the order before 17th June.

d. This will be:

= Annual demand / EOQ

= 94149/6974.50

= 13.5 orders

e. The resulting annual holding cost will be:

= 0.72 × (6974.50/2)

= 0.72 × 3487.25

= $2510.82

f. The resulting annual ordering will be:

= 94149/6974.50 × $186

= 13.5 × $186

= $2511

Explanation:

Organizational culture is what we call the mix of core values and actions that make up an organization, it's mostly and widely used for companies but it also applies to schools, governments, non-profits, and any group of people working together towards a goal.

The mission statement is basically what the organization wants to achieve, or its dreamed goal.

Stories and language are the speech that the organization communicates to the audience or anyone interacting with it.

The physical layouts are the colors and buildings, apps, or any way of direct interaction that any person could have with the organization.

Rules and policies are what dictate the behavior of all the employees and people related to the organization.

And rituals are the activities that the organization does in order to reinforce the values and policies they try to live day by day, doing your own painting is one example of these rituals.

Adelberg Corporation makes two products: Product A and Product B. Annual production and sales are 1,500 units of Product A and 1,500 units of Product B. The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products. Product A requires 0.4 direct labor-hours per unit and Product B requires 0.2 direct labor-hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for next period is $87,630. The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose of computing unit product costs for external reports. The new activity-based costing system would have three overhead activity cost pools--Activity 1, Activity 2, and General Factory--with estimated overhead costs and expected activity as follows:
Expected Activity
Activity Cost Pool Estimated Overhead Costs Product A Product B Total
Activity 1 $ 41,400 1,000 500 1,500
Activity 2 15,720 800 400 1,200
General Factory 30,510 600 300 900
Total $ 87,630
(Note: The General Factory activity cost pool's costs are allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours.)
The overhead cost per unit of Product B under the activity-based costing system is closest to:_________
a. $42.90
b. $9.10
c. $21.30
d. $63.92

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each activity:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Activity 1= 41,400/1,500= $27.6 per unit of activity

Activity 2= 15,720/1,200= $13.1 per unit of activity

General Factory= 30,510/900= $33.9 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to product B:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Activity 1= 27.6*500= $13,800

Activity 2= 13.1*400= $5,240

General Factory= 33.9*300= $10,170

Total allocated overhead= $29,210

Unitary allocated overhead= 29,210/1,500= $19.47

What will be the nominal rate of return on a perpetual preferred stock with a $100 par value, a stated dividend of 8% of par, and a current market price of (a) $62, (b) $81, (c) $97, and (d) $136

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the risk premium is shown below:-

Rate of return = Dividend ÷ Current market price of preferred stock

The dividend should be

= $100 × 8%

= $8

a Rate of return = $8 ÷ $62

= 12.90%

b. Rate of return = $8 ÷ $81

= 9.88%

c. Rate of return = $8 ÷ $97

= 8.25%

d. Rate of return = $8 ÷ $136

= 5.88%

The lowest amount a manufacturer can pay factory workers is an example of

an incentive.
a price floor.
a price ceiling.
an elastic service.

Answers

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

The correct answer to this question is the price floor.

The Price floor is the lowest amount that is imposed by the government or group-imposed lowest price limit for a product or service. The government uses the price floor to keep prices at a certain level from going to low. So price floors for workers set by the government that the employer should not pay less than the set amount.

while other options are not correct because::

The price ceiling is the high amount set by the government or the by other groups for a product or service.

An incentive is an amount or something that can be given to employees or someone for motivation or encouraging them to do something.  

An elastic service is given by amazon to develop and run the application with different tools etc.

Answer:price floor

O They both use taxes to support a country's growth.
They both invest money to earn a profit.
They both receive capital to use for growth.
They both act as angel investors for start-ups.

Answers

Answer:

They both receive capital to use for growth.

Explanation:

The government received the capital in the form of tax that being paid by the citizens. After collecting the tax income, the government allocated it to make a couple of investments such as building the country's infrastructure, providing aid for people to pursue education, and investing in scientific research/development.

Business on the other hand could receive their capital from either reallocating their profit or receiving capital injection from the investors. They use the capital for growth by reinvesting it to increase the scope of their business operation or putting it under investment accounts.

4. When auditors find unrecorded liabilities, before adjusting they must consider __________.
5 Auditiors need to consider_______ terms for determining ownership and whether a liability should be recorded.

Answers

Answer:

1. When searching for unrecorded liabilities, the auditors consider transactions recorded after year end.

Auditors consider transactions recorded after year end to determine if it was supposed to be recorded in the current period.

2. Accounts payable confirmation can be mailed to vendors from whom substantial purchases have been made.

As a way to keep a document trail, creditors from whom substantial goods were bought from can be mailed a confirmation.

3. To gain overall assurance as to the reasonableness of accounts payable, the auditor may consider ratios.

Ratios such as the Payables turnover can be used to evaluate the reasonableness of Accounts payable.

4. When auditors find unrecorded liabilities, before adjusting they must consider materiality.

They must consider if the adjustment is material or significant enough to record.

5 Auditiors need to consider shipping terms terms for determining ownership and whether a liability should be recorded.

Shipping terms need to be considered because they can tell who owns goods in transit and therefore if a liability is needed for them. Shipping terms such as FOB Shipping point mean that the business incurs the liability as soon as the seller ships the goods.

You are invested in two hedge funds. The probability that hedge fund Alpha generates positive returns in any given year is 60%. The probability that hedge fund Omega generates positive returns in any given year is 70%. Assume the returns are independent. What is the probability that both funds generate positive returns in a given year? What is the probability that both funds lose money?

Answers

Answer:

42% and 12%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For Alpha Fund

Positive return = 60%

Lose money is

= 1 - 0.60

= 40%

For Omega Fund

 Positive return = 70%

Lose money is

= 1 - 0.70

= 0.30

Also the returns are non-dependent

Now the positive return is

= 60% × 70

= 42%

And, the probability of lose money is

= 40% × 30%

= 12%
