Kent Manufacturing produces a product that sells for $64.00 and has variable costs of $35.00 per unit. Fixed costs are $348,000. Kent can buy a new production machine that will increase fixed costs by $20,500 per year, but will decrease variable costs by $4.50 per unit.

Required:
Compute the contribution margin per unit if the machine is purchased.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The contribution margin per unit is $33.50

Explanation:

The contribution margin per unit in the case when the machine is purchased is shown below:

= Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

= $64 - ($35 - $4.50)

= $64 - $30.50

=  $33.50

hence, the contribution margin per unit is $33.50 and the same is to be considered

We simply applied the above formula

A bank offers 8.00% on savings accounts. What is the effective annual rate if interest is compounded semi-annually?Percentage Round to: 4 decimal places (Example: 9.2434%, % sign required. Will accept decimal format rounded to 6 decimal places (ex: 0.092434))

Answers

Answer:

Effective Annual Rate  = 8.1600%

Explanation:

The effective annual rate the interest rate that is adjusted for compounding over a given period of time. It is given by the formula:

[tex]r = (1+\frac{i}{n})^n -1\\where:\\r = effective\ annual\ rate\\i = nominal\ interest\ rate\ = 8.00\% = 0.08 \\n = number\ of\ compounding\ periods\ per\ year\ = 2\ (semi-annually)[/tex]

[tex]r = (1+\frac{0.08}{2})^2 -1\\r = (1\ +\ 0.04)^2 - 1\\r = (1.04)^2 - 1\\r = 1.0816 - 1\\r = 0.0816\\r = 8.1600 \%[/tex]

You will invest $25,000 in an ice cream shop your sister is starting. You expect to triple your investment in six years. What is the rate of return that you have in mind? (Rounded to the nearest percent.)

Answers

Answer:

r = 20.09%

Explanation:

we can use the future value formula to calculate the expected rate of return:

future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ

future value = $25,000 x 3 = $75,000present value = $25,000n = 6

$75,000 = $25,000 x (1 + r)⁶

(1 + r)⁶ = $75,000 / $25,000 = 3

⁶√(1 + r)⁶ = ⁶√3

1 + r = 1.2009

r = 0.2009 = 20.09%

When the stock price follows a random walk the price today is said to be equal to the prior period price plus the expected return for the period with any remaining difference to the actual return due to:_________

a. A predictable amount based on the past prices.
b. A component based on new information unrelated to past prices.
c. The security's risk.
d. The risk free rate.
e. None of the above.

Answers

Answer:

e. None of the above.

Explanation:

When the stock price follows a random walk the price today is said to be equal to the prior period price plus the expected return for the period with any remaining difference to the actual return due due to new information related to the stock​". This is because any new information on stock which is unrelated to stock prices will lead to an increase/decrease in the stock price over a period of time.

For most consumers, maximizing utility through consumption generally means finding good deals in order to maximize the utility received for each dollar spent. However, some makers of luxury goods believe that their customers actually achieve utility by paying high prices. As a result, lowering prices may lead to reduced sales for the makers of luxury goods. How is this counterintuitive concept rationalized by analysis of consumer behavior and the utility maximization rule

Answers

Answer:

The explanation of that situation is below.

Explanation:

To begin with, the most important factor to have in mind in the situation explained above is the fact that we are talking about a "luxury good" and therefore that when it comes to this type of goods is better when the majority of the people do not possess or at least they must represent the fact that they are exclusive for only some part of the population. That is why that those goods use the strategy of increase always the price because that will means that they are not affordable for the majority of the society but only for a few and that will give to the owner of the good a sense of uniqueness and with that it also comes the sense of superiority. That is why that when it comes to this type of good the analysis change and it collides with the other theory of utility maximation.

you can acquire an existing business for $2 million. You are uncertain about future demand. There is a 40% chance of high demand, in which case the present value of the business will be $3 million. There is a 25% chance of moderate demand, and the associated present value is $1.5 million. Finally, there is a 35% chance of low demand, in which case the present value is $1 million. Draw a decision tree for this problem. What is the expected net present value of the business

Answers

Answer:

Expected net present value of the project = $1,925,000

Explanation:

The cost of acquiring business = $2,000,000

Expected net present value of the project =  High demand NPV*High demand percent + Moderate demand NPV*Moderate demand percent + Low demand NPV*Low demand percent

Expected net present value of the project = $3,000,000 *40% + $1,500,000*25% + $1,000,000*35%

Expected net present value of the project = $1,200,000 + $375,000 + $350,000

Expected net present value of the project = $1,925,000

Conclusion: The cost of acquiring business is more than expected net present value, it is advisable not to invest in the project.

Creswell Corporation's fixed monthly expenses are $30,000 and its contribution margin ratio is 63%. Assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change, what is the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $92,000?
a. $27,960.b. $62,000.c. $57,960.d. $4,040.

Answers

Answer:

Net income= $27,960

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $30,000

contribution margin ratio= 0.63

Sales= $92,000

First, we need to calculate the total contribution margin:

Total contribution margin= 92,000*0.63= 57,960

Now, the net income:

Net income= 57,960 - 30,000

Net income= $27,960

The allowance account had a debit balance of $3,800 before adjustment. After adjusting for bad debt expense, what is the ending balance of the allowance account

Answers

Answer:

$65,290

Explanation:

The computation of the ending balance of the allowance account is shown below:-

Bad Debts for accounts receivable not yet due is

= $540,000 × 0.02

= $10,800

Bad Debts for accounts receivable due for up-to 180 days:

= $170,000 × 0.16

= $27,200

Bad Debts for accounts receivable due for more than 180 days:

= $87,000 × 0.27

= $23,490

Ending balance of Allowance account:

= $3,800 + $10,800 + $27,200 + $23,490

= $65,290

[Same investments as the prior question] Suppose two local start-ups are raising funding by issuing shares of equity at $10,000 per share. One start-up is a whiskey distillery; the other is a beer brewery. You estimate the expected returns on your investment to be 50% over five years in both cases. You also believe that the likelihood of being paid out $20,000 per share is greater with the distillery than with the brewery. Suppose now that you hold a portfolio of many other risky assets, and that this would be your N 1 investment. Which investment do you prefer to make, the distillery or the brewery

Answers

Answer:

you should purchase the brewery's stock

Explanation:

First of all, as investors we should always try to maximize our returns while avoiding risks. It is really hard to balance both, but we must compare stocks to see which may represent a higher gain while posing the lesser or same risk.

Initial investment in each = $10,000 (equal for both)expected returns over 5 years = $5,000 (equal for both)but there is a higher possibility of the distillery's stock being more valuable, and that makes a difference.

Both stocks seem equally risky, but they are not. When you calculate expected returns, you multiply the possible returns by their probability. I'm not sure how they calculated the expected returns of the above stocks, but the following can help you understand my point:

stock B                        return         probability        expected return

great                             100%             25%                    25%

normal                            50%             50%                    25%

bad                                  0%              25%                     0%

total                                                   100%                    50%

stock D                        return         probability        expected return

great                             100%             30%                    30%

normal                            50%             40%                    20%

bad                                  0%              30%                     0%

total                                                   100%                    50%

Both stocks have the same expected return, but stock B is less risky because the chance of being a bad investment is lower.

How do you think Alden, from Situation 2, found out about Revinate? Given all the online companies that might help your business connect you with customers, how would you choose one?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you forgot to include the proper context of the question or further references, we can comment on the following.

Alden found out about Revinate by searching on the web trying to find the best software options that could help the company to identify the customer's reviews so Gregory E. Alden could make the best decisions for his company.

Gregory E. Alden is the manager of the company Woodside Hotels, located in Northern California. He was trying to monitor the comments of his high-class clients because Woodside Hotels is in the luxurious hotel business. So knowing that constantly monitoring client's comments on social media pages such as TripAdvisor or Yelp can be an arduous and difficult task, Gregory searched for the best software company to monitor client's comments on social media. That is how he found Revinate, a company that helps managers to track reviews so they can make the best business decisions once they have learned what their customers desire. And that is exactly what I would do to choose the kind of company to know about the preferences of my customers.

We sell to a customer paying with Visa and the fee is 2%. Part of the transaction would include a debit to:

Answers

Answer:

there are no available options, but the complete journal entry to record a credit card sale is:

Dr Cash account 98% of sale

Dr Credit card fees 2% of sale

    Cr Sales revenue 100% of sale

Explanation:

Since VISA payments are automatic, you can debit cash directly. There is no need to debit accounts receivable and then once the payment is confirmed, debit cash. Some credit cards do not pay automatically, and in those cases you should debit accounts receivable.

Instead of credit card fees, some people use credit card discount, or credit card expense, but all these accounts are basically the same. They are all expense accounts.

If a company purchases equipment costing $4,500 on credit, the effect on the accounting equation would be: Multiple Choice Assets increase $4,500 and liabilities decrease $4,500. One asset increases $4,500 and another asset decreases $4,500. Equity decreases $4,500 and liabilities increase $4,500. Equity increases $4,500 and liabilities decrease $4,500. Assets increase $4,500 and liabilities increase $4,500.

Answers

Answer: Assets increase $4,500 and liabilities increase $4,500.

Explanation:

An asset are the properties which a business or an organization owns. An asset possess an economic value.

Your Grandpa also doesn't like banks so he has buried the cash somewhere on his 40-acre farm in a location that will be revealed to you by his lawyer since Grandpa will not be around when you turn 50. If you could possibly get your hands on it now (when you are 20), you could put it in a bank at 6% annual interest. If you were able to dig up the money now, how much would you have when you turn 50?

Answers

Answer:

FV= $5,743,491.17

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present value (PV)= $1,000,000

Number of periods (n)= 30 years

Annual interest= 6% = 0.06

To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 1,000,000*(1.06^30)

FV= $5,743,491.17

Q 20.27: Liberty Bicycles currently sells unassembled bikes for $240 each. The variable production costs for each bike are $35 and the fixed production costs are $72. Liberty is thinking about selling the bikes fully assembled for $300 each. The variable costs for assembling one bike will be $18 and the fixed costs will be $31. Given these figures, Liberty will increase its net income per unit by ________ if it opts to assemble the bikes.

Answers

Delphi Company uses job-order costing. It applies overhead to jobs using a predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. At the beginning of the year, Delphi estimated that it would work 37,000 machine-hours and incur $222,000 in manufacturing overhead cost. The following transactions were recorded for the year: a. Raw materials were issued for use in production, $367,000 ($345,000 direct and $22,000 indirect). b. Employee costs were incurred: direct labor, $309,000; indirect labor, $44,000; and administrative salaries, $155,000. c. Factory depreciation, $175,000. d. Selling costs, $140,000. e. Manufacture overhead was applied to jobs. The actual machine hours for the year were 35,000 hours. a. Compute the total manufacturing overhead cost applied to jobs during the year.

Answers

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $210,000

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 222,000/37,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $6 per machine hour

Now, we cal allocate overhead:

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

Allocated MOH= 6*35,000

Allocated MOH= $210,000

The average price for regular gasoline at U.S. pumps fell almost 4 cents in March to​ $2.50 a gallon. The price of crude oil dropped to​ $43.46 per barrel on March​ 17, the lowest since March 2009.

Answers

Answer: C. lower the cost of producing gasoline and increase the supply of gasoline

Explanation:

Gasoline is derived from the distillation of crude oil which means that Crude oil is the main raw material in the production of gasoline. This means that if crude oil sees a reduction in price, input costs for gasoline will decrease as well.

Producers of gasoline will take advantage of this to buy more crude oil and therefore process and make more gasoline which will increase the supply of gasoline in the market and reduce its price.

Big Box Store has operated with a 30% average gross profit ratio for a number of years. It had $107,000 in sales during the second quarter of this year. If it began the quarter with $18,700 of inventory at cost and purchased $72,700 of inventory during the quarter, its estimated ending inventory by the gross profit method is:

Answers

Answer:

$16,500

Explanation:

The computation of the estimated ending inventory is given below:

As  We know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchase made - ending inventory

And, the

Sales - gross profit = Cost of goods sold

So,

$107,000 - $107,000 × 30% = Cost of goods sold

Therefore, the cost of goods sold is

= $107,000 - $32,100

= $74,900

And, finally the ending inventory is

$74,900 = $18,700 + $72,700 - ending inventory

$74,900 = $91,400  - ending inventory

So, the ending inventory is

= $91,400 - $74,900

= $16,500

Rufus Inc. and Hardy Company are negotiating a nontaxable exchange of business properties. Rufus’s property has a $50,000 tax basis and a $77,500 FMV. Hardy’s property has a $60,000 tax basis and a $90,000 FMV. Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work? How much boot must be paid? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?

Answers

Answer:

Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work?

Rufus must pay boot since the FMV of its property is less than the FMV of Hardy's property.

How much boot must be paid?

$90,000 - $77,500 = $12,500

Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired?

Rufus doesn't have any gain, and the tax basis for the new asset will be $50,000 + $12,500 = $62,500

Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?

Since Hardy's property basis is $60,000 and it would be receiving $50,000 (Rufus's property) + $12,500 = $62,500, then it must recognize a $2,500 gain. The basis of Hardy's new property will be $62,500.

Relay Corporation manufactures batons. Relay can manufacture 300,000 batons a year at a variable cost of$750,000 and a fixed cost of $450,000. Based on Relay's predictions, 240,000 batons will be sold at the regular price of $5.00 each. In addition, a special order was placed for 60,000 batons to be sold at a 40% discount off the regular price. Required: By what amount would income before income taxes be increased or decreased as a result of the special order

Answers

Answer:

The total rise in income is $30,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Sale price     3     {5 × (1 - 0.40)

Less: Incremental cost  2.5   ($750,000 ÷ 300,000)

Increase in income per unit   0.50

Divide by Total units    60,000

Total increase in income   $30,000

Hence, the total rise in income is $30,000 and the same is to be considered

The total rise in income before tax is $30,000 as a result of a special offer when the Relay Corporation manufactures batons.

What is income?

Income is defined as the consumption and saving opportunity achieved by a commodity within a nominal time structure, which is commonly represented in monetary words. Income is challenging to describe conceptually, and the explanation may be further across areas.

Computation of change in income:

According to the given information,

Regular price = $5.

Discount Rate=40%

Then sales price would be:

[tex]\text{Sale Price}= \text{Regular Price}(1- \text{Discount Rate})\\\\\text{Sale Price}=\$5 \text (1 - 0.40)\\\\\text{Sale Price}= \$3[/tex]

Then the incremental cost is:

[tex]\text{Incremental Cost}=\dfrac{ \text{Variable Cost}}{\text{Units Produced}}\\\\ \text{Incremental Cost}=\dfrac{\$750,000}{\$300,000}\\\\ \text{Incremental Cost}=2.5[/tex]

Increase in income per unit:

[tex]\text{Increase In Income}=\text{Sales Price}- \text{Incremental Cost}\\\\\text{Increase In Income}=\$3-\$2.5\\\\\text{Increase In Income}=0.50[/tex]  

Therefore, the increase in income is :

[tex]=\text{Per unit Increase In Income}\times\text{Total Units}\\\\=0.50\times60,000\\\\=\$30,000[/tex]

Yoshi Co.'s 12/31/2020 inventory on a FIFO basis was $980,000. The following information is available: Estimated selling price is $1,020,000; Estimated cost of disposal is $40,000; Normal profit margin is $120,000; and Current replacement cost is $900,000. At 12/31/2020, assuming Yoshi uses the loss method, what amount of loss should Yoshi record from applying LCM

Answers

Answer:

Yoshi Co.

The amount of loss that Yoshi Co. should record from applying LCM (the lower of Cost or Market price) is:

$40,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

FIFO inventory on 12/31/2020 = $980,000

Current replacement cost = $900,000

Net realizable value = $980,000 ($1,020,000 - $40,000)

Normal profit margin = $120,000

Loss to be recognized based on current replacement cost = FIFO purchase cost minus Current replacement cost

= $80,000 ($980,000 - $900,000)

b) Under the US GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) of prudence and conservatism, the loss of $80,000 must be recognized in the current period, since the inventory will be booked at $900,000, its current replacement cost, which is lower than the FIFO purchase cost of $980,000.

Speicher sells sports shoes and formal shoes. Sports shoes sell for $110 each and cost $50 in variable expenses to make. Formal shoes sell for $220 and cost $100 in variable expenses to make. Speicher’s fixed expenses are $50,000. If 35% of his revenues are from sports shoes, what is Speicher’s weighted average contribution margin ratio? Provide your answer in decimal form (i.e. 65.2% = 0.652) and to three decimal places. Do not round intermediary calculations.

Answers

Answer:

weighted contribution margin ratio = 0.545

Explanation:

contribution margin of sport shoes = $110 - $50 = $60

contribution margin ratio of sport shoes = $60 / $110 = 0.545454

contribution margin of formal shoes = $220 - $100 = $120

contribution margin ratio of sport shoes = $120 / $220 = 0.545454

35% of total revenues come from sport shoes

weighted contribution margin ratio (it is the same for both products) = 0.545454 = 0.545

Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively

Establishing government-run employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies

Explanation:

If the world price of steel falls, the profits that can be earned from producing steel would fall. This would make steel-producing firms cutback on production. If they do this, they would lead less labour, so the demand for labour would fall.

The decrease in the price of steel would make purchasing steel by automobile companies cheaper. This would lead to a rise in production and as a result an increase in the demand for labour.

Structural unemployment occurs when there is a mismatch between the skills of labour and the jobs available.  Measures taken to increase information on available jobs would reduce this type of unemployment

to beter take into account the differential impact of fixed and variable costs, marketing managers canuse ____ pricing

Answers

Answer:

target return pricing

Explanation:

Target return pricing is a pricing method that uses a very simple formula:

target price = [unit cost + (desired return x capital)] /unit sales

The price is based on the ROI that the company expects from a certain product (or project).

Even though this is a fairly simple method for pricing a good or service, it can also have serious negative consequences:

it doesn't take in account consumers' tastes or preferenceswhat happens if the expected ROI is too high, that could kill a project that could have been successful otherwisethe time frames are not always exact, e.g. you believed that a project would last 5 years, but due to a technological breakthrough it only lasts 4

In order to successfully apply this type of pricing strategy, a company must be able to achieve or exceed their sales goals.
