A NOW account requires a minimum balance of $750 for interest to be earned at an annual rate of 4 percent. An account holder has maintained an average balance of $500 for the first six months and $1,000 for the remaining six months. The account holder writes an average of 60 checks per month and pays $0.02 per check, although it costs the bank $0.05 to clear a check.

Required:
a. What average return does the account holder earn on the account?
b. What is the average return if the bank lowers the minimum balance to $400?
c. What is the average return if the bank pays interest only on the amount in excess of $400? Assume that the minimum required balance is $400.
d. How much should the bank increase its check fee to the account holder to ensure that the average interest it pays on this account is 5 percent? Assume that the minimum required balance is $750.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Average return =  5.55%

b. Average return = 6.88%

c. Average return = 4.75%

d. Bank increase per check fees = $.0257

Explanation:

a.)

Interest earned on first $500 = $500×0×6 / 12 = $0

Interest earned on next $1000 = $1000×0.04×6 / 12=  $20

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12 =  $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $20 + $21.6 = $41.6

Given,

Average balance maintained  = $750

So,

Average return = $41.6 / $750 =  5.55%

b.)

Interest earned on first $500 = $500×0.04×6 / 12  = $10

Interest earned on next $1000 = $1000×0.04×6 / 12  = $20

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12  = $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $10 + $20 + $21.6 = $51.6

Given that,

Average balance maintained  = $750

So,

Average return = $51.6 / $750 = 6.88%

c.)

Interest earned on first $100 = $100×0.04×6 / 12 = $2

Interest earned on next $600 = $600×0.04×6 / 12 = $12

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12  = $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $2 + $12 + $21.6 = $35.6

Given that,

Average balance maintained = $750

So,

Average return = $35.6 / $750 = 4.75%

d.)

Total interest earned = $750×0.05 = $37.5

So,

fees earned on checks = $37.5 - $20 = $17.5

Subsidiary per check = $17.5 / 60×12 = $.0243

So,

Bank increase per check fees = $.05 – $.0243 = $.0257

Value-added lead time fill in the blank 1 minutes Non-value-added lead time fill in the blank 2 minutes Total lead time fill in the blank 3 minutes b. Compute the value-added ratio. Round to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

a. Value added time = Cutting time + Sewing time

Value added time = 5 minutes + 20 minutes

Value added time = 25 minutes

Non-value added time = Total within batch wait time + Move time

Non-value added time = [25 minutes * (40 - 1) + 2 minutes

Non-value added time = 977 minutes

Total lead time = Value added time + Non-value added time

Total lead time = 25 minutes + 977 minutes

Total lead time = 1,002 minutes

b. Value added ratio = Value added time / Total lead time

Value added ratio = 25 minutes / 1,002 minutes

Value added ratio = 0.02495

Value added ratio = 2.5%

If Apple uses the variable cost method to set selling prices and plans a markup of 200% of variable costs, what is the expected selling price per unit of this new phone? 2. Assume that Apple is a "price taker" and the market sales price for this type of phone is $800 per unit. Compute Apple’s target cost if the company desires a profit of 60% of sales price.

Answers

Question Completion:

Assume Apple is designing a new smartphone. Each unit of this new phone is expected to require $230 of direct materials, $10 of direct labor, $20 of variable overhead, and $20 of variable selling and administrative costs.

Answer:

Apple

1. The expected selling price per unit of this new phone is:

= $860.

2. Apple's target cost if the company desires a profit of 60% of the sales price is:

= $320.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Method of setting prices = 200% Markup on Variable Cost

Direct materials cost per unit =                              $230

Direct labor cost per unit =                                        $10

Variable overhead cost per unit =                            $20

Variable selling and administrative cost per unit = $20

Total variable cost =                                                $280

Markup =                                                                 $560

Expected selling price =                                         $840

Selling price per unit =         $800

Target profit of sales price = 480

Target cost =                        $320

= $800 * (100 - 60)

= $320

A new minor league baseball stadium is opening soon and the owner is only allowing local, family-owned restaurants to sell within the park. Two hotdog vendors are set to sell within the stadium: (i) The HOT Dog and (ii) Ballpark Frankies. The Baseball park necessitates that the vendors set their prices at the beginning of each season and then hold the price constant during the games that occur that season. The fans are not sensitive to the quality of the hotdog, just the price. The two vendors have every inclination to stay in the ballpark for the life of their firms, so imagine that this will be an infinitely repeated game. Based on relative prices, the potential payoffs for the season are listed below: The HOT Dog Ballpark Frankies Low Price High Price Low Price $10,000 , $10,000 $90,000 , -$3,000 High Price -$3,000 , $90,000 $20,000 , $20,000 Given the high current interest rate of 10%, The HOT Dog is considering to post a high price in the inaugural season and hope that Ballpark Frankies follows as well with a high price of their own.

Which of the following is true? In a one-shot game, a collusive strategy always represents a Nash equilibrium. A subgame perfect equilibrium occurs when each player is doing the best he can regardless of what the other player is doing. Each Nash equilibrium is a subgame perfect equilibrium. Correct! Every subgame perfect equilibrium is a Nash equilibrium.

Answers

Answer: Each Nash equilibrium is a subgame perfect equilibrium.

Explanation:

The Nash Equilibrium in a game is the outcome of which neither of the players would want to deviate from because they are making the highest payoff that they can given the other player's possible choice and leaving this outcome would result in a lower payoff.

In every subgame that is based on the original game therefore, the Nash equilibrium represents the perfect equilibrium for the players as it is giving the highest payoff given the circumstances.

Haver Company currently produces component RX5 for its sole product. The current cost per unit to manufacture the required 69,000 units of RX5 follows. Direct materials $ 5.00 Direct labor 9.00 Overhead 10.00 Total costs per unit $ 24.00 Direct materials and direct labor are 100% variable. Overhead is 80% fixed. An outside supplier has offered to supply the 69,000 units of RX5 for $19.00 per unit. Required: 1. Determine the total incremental cost of making 69,000 units of RX5. 2. Determine the total incremental cost of buying 69,000 units of RX5. 3. Should the company make or buy RX5

Answers

Answer:

It is cheaper to make the units in-house. The company will save $207,000.

Explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Production:

Direct materials $ 5.00

Direct labor 9.00

Varaible overhead= 10 - 8= $2

Total fixed overhead= (10*0.8)*69,000= $621,000

Direct materials and direct labor are 100% variable.

Overhead is 80% fixed.

An outside supplier has offered to supply the 69,000 units of RX5 for $19.00 per unit.

I will assume that none of the fixed overhead is avoidable.

First, we need to calculate the incremental cost of making 69,000 units. As it is incremental, we will take into account only the variable costs:

Make in-house:

Total variable cost= 69,000*(5 + 9 + 2)= $1,104,000

Now, the total cost of buying:

Buy:

Total cost= 69,000*19= $1,311,000

It is cheaper to make the units in-house. The company will save $207,000.

I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.

II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.

IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).

These four (4) factors of production when combined effectively and efficiently are used for the manufacturing or production of goods and services that meets the unending requirements or needs of the consumers.

Circular flow model is an economic model that is used by economists to show or demonstrate how money, goods and services move from one economic agent to another such as producer, workers, wholesaler, retailer and consumers (households).

An efficient private provision of pure public goods is difficult because too little will be demanded as, individually, consumers choose not to pay the full cost of units of the good.

The selling price per unit is $3,500. The budgeted level of production used to calculate the budgeted fixed manufacturing cost per unit is 1,400 units. There are no price, efficiency, or spending variances. Any pro- duction-volume variance is written off to cost of goods sold in the month in which it occurs. 360 CHAPTER 9 INVENTORY COSTING AND CAPACITY ANALYSIS 1.

2. The difference in the operating incomes for January, February, and March under variable costing and absorption costing is due to the way the fixed cost per month is accounted for in cost of goods sold and ending inventory.  With variable costing, all variable costs are included, while absorption includes both variable and fixed manufacturing costs. This makes the ending inventory of variable costing to be carried forward to the next period while absorption costing includes every fixed cost as period costs.

During its first year of operations, Silverman Company paid $15,085 for direct materials and $10,200 for production workers' wages. Lease payments and utilities on the production facilities amounted to $9,200 while general, selling, and administrative expenses totaled $4,700. The company produced 6,050 units and sold 3,700 units at a price of $8.20 a unit. What is the amount of finished goods inventory on the balance sheet at year-end

Answers

Answer:

$13,395

Explanation:

Finished Goods Inventory = Production Cost x Ending Units / Units Produced

where,

Production Cost is Calculated as :

Consider only production costs.

Production Cost = $15,085 + $10,200 + $9,200 = $34,485

Ending Units = 6,050 units - 3,700 units = 2,350 units

Units Produced = 6,050 units

therefore,

Finished Goods Inventory = $34,485 x 2,350 units/ 6,050 units = $13,395

Determine which one of these three portfolios dominates another. Name the dominated portfolio and the portfolio that dominates it. Portfolio Blue has an expected return of 13 percent and risk of 17 percent. The expected return and risk of portfolio Yellow are 19 percent and 15 percent, and for the Purple portfolio are 18 percent and 22 percent. multiple choicePortfolio Purple dominates portfolios Blue and Yellow.Portfolio Blue dominates portfolios Yellow and Purple.Portfolio Yellow dominates portfolios Blue and Purple.

Answers

Answer: Yellow dominates portfolios Blue and Purple.

Explanation:

Portfolio Yellow has a higher expected return than either portfolio Blue or Portfolio Purple which means that if we were evaluating the portfolios on return alone, Portfolio Yellow would dominate the other two.

However, we need to adjust for risk. The portfolio with the lowest standard deviation is the less riskier one of the three. That portfolio is Yellow which means that Yellow has both a higher expected return and a lower risk. It would therefore dominate the rest.

Calculate the cash dividends required to be paid for each of the following preferred stock issues: Required: The semiannual dividend on 6% cumulative preferred, $62 par value, 8,200 shares authorized, issued, and outstanding. The annual dividend on $2.25 cumulative preferred, 130,000 shares authorized, 78,000 shares issued, 68,900 shares outstanding. Last year's dividend has not been paid. The quarterly dividend on 10.0% cumulative preferred, $90 stated value, $106 liquidating value, 78,000 shares authorized, 67,600 shares issued and outstanding. No dividends are in arrears.

Answers

Answer:

Preferred dividend calculation:

= Percentage return * Par Value * number of shares

a. The semiannual dividend on 6% cumulative preferred, $62 par value, 8,200 shares authorized, issued, and outstanding.

= 6% * 62 * 8,200 * 1/2 years

= $‭15,252‬

b. The annual dividend on $2.25 cumulative preferred, 130,000 shares authorized, 78,000 shares issued, 68,900 shares outstanding. Last year's dividend has not been paid.

In this case, last year's dividend was not paid and this is a cumulative preferred stock so the dividend will be accrued from last year and paid this year.

= Preferred dividend * 2 years

= (2.25 * 68,900 shares outstanding) * 2

= $‭310,050‬

c. The quarterly dividend on 10.0% cumulative preferred, $90 stated value, $106 liquidating value, 78,000 shares authorized, 67,600 shares issued and outstanding. No dividends are in arrears.

= 10% * 90 * 67,600 * 1/4 years

= $152,775

Stephen Company had the following partial list of account balances at year-end: Accounts Receivable: $9,000 Cost of Goods Sold: $34,100 Sales Revenue: $57,200 Accounts Payable: $7,500 Sales Discounts: $1,600 Merchandise Inventory: $5,900 Operating Expenses: $8,400 Sales Returns and Allowances: $4,300 The amount of Gross Profit shown on the income statement would be: A) $ 26,200 B) $ 8,800 C) $ 17,200 D) $ 8,200 E) $ 11,300

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is C) $17,200.

Explanation:

The amount of Gross Profit shown on the income statement can be calculated as follows:

Net sales revenue = Sales Revenue - Sales Discounts - ales Returns and Allowances = $57,200 - $1,600 - $4,300 = $51,300

Gross profit = Net sales revenue -  Cost of Goods Sold = $51,300 - $34,100 = $17,200

Therefore, the correct option is C) $17,200. That is, the amount of Gross Profit shown on the income statement would be $17,200.

Answers

Answer:

Cash A/c (Dr)                         $60,000

Sergio Capital A/c (Cr)                     $41,250

Tiger Capital A/c (Cr)                        $9,375

Phil Capital A/c (Cr)                           $7,500

Ernie Capital A/c (Cr)                         $1,875

(To record admission of new partner)

Explanation:

The total investment by Sergio is $60,000 in cash will be debited in the journal entry recorded. His interest in the business is 25% which would be credited. So, first we calculate the total investment already made by the partners which is $165,000 (70,000 + 40,000 + 55,000).

Now, Sergio's investment is 25% of the total share of investment made by the partners which accounts to $41,250 (165,000 * 25%). This amount will be credited as Sergio Capital A/c.

The difference $18,750 (60,000 - 41,250) will credited in the capital A/c of other partners which would be divided proportionately to their business share. As done below:

Tiger Capital A/c - $9,375 (18,750 * 50%)

Phil Capital A/c - $7,500 (18,750 * 40%)

Ernie Capital A/c - $1,875 (18,750 * 10%)

Chevron Phillips (CP) has put into place new laboratory equipment for the production of chemicals; the cost is $1,770,000 installed. CP borrows 48% of all capital needed, and the borrowing rate is 13.4%. In the 1st year, 25% of the principal borrowed will be paid back. The throughput rate for in-process test samples has increased the capacity of the lab, saving a net of $X per year. In this 1st year, depreciation is $362,000 and taxable income is $329,000.

Required:
a. What is the gross income or annual savings?
b. Determine the income tax for the 1st year assuming a marginal tax rate of 40%.
c. What is the after-tax cash flow for the 1st year?

Answers

Answer:

Chevron Phillips (CP)

a. The gross income or annual savings is:

= $804,846.

b. The income tax for the 1st year assuming a marginal tax rate of 40% is:

= $131,600.

c. The after-tax cash flow for the 1st year is:

= $559,400.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations;

Cost of new laboratory equipment = $1,770,000

Borrowed capital = $849,600 ($1,770,000 * 48%)

Borrowing rate = 13.4%

Borrowing interest expense for the first year = $113,846

Depreciation = $362,000

Taxable income = $329,000

Gross savings = $X

$X = $804,846 ($113,846 + $362,000 + $329,000)

Income tax for the 1st year:

Marginal tax rate = 40%

Taxable income = $329,000

= $131,600 ($329,000 * 40%)

After-tax Cash Flows for the 1st year:

Gross savings =    $804,846

Interest expense      113,846

Depreciation          362,000

Taxable income  $329,000

Income tax              131,600

Net income          $197,400

Which one of the following statements is TRUE? a. If a company has a classified board, fewer board seats are filled each year. b. A classified board is one in which an announcement requesting applications for board members appears in the newspaper. c. One tool of corporate governance is choosing a good investment banker. d. A classified board is one in which the board members serve anonymously. e. In a classified board, it is easier for dissidents to gain representation since fewer seats are up for election each year.

Answers

Answer:

The true statement about a classified board is:

a. If a company has a classified board, fewer board seats are filled each year.

Explanation:

If Company A has a classified board of directors, it implies that it has a structure that enthrones continuity and stability, enables some portion of the directors to be elected each year, and ensures that different directors have different terms to serve the company.  Depending on their classifications, some directors serve one or two years, some three or four years, some five or six years, and others servicing seven or eight years.  This type of structured board staggers the board membership, helping to save the company from unintended takeover bids, and ensuring stability and continuity.

Geralt of Rivia is an independent contractor who specializes in monster-killing. His unique skills have earned him the bargaining power to sell his services at a high price to those willing to pay for the removal of infestations of fire elementals, rock trolls, royal wyverns, or the like. Geralt specializes only in hard-to-kill monsters, however, leaving the likes of basiliks and harpies, monsters lower on the totem pole, to less sophisticated monster slayers.
Given these facts, based on the Generic Business Strategies framework, we might say that Geralt occupies the_______ (1) quadrant of the framework.
When Geralt takes a contract from a rich village seeking his aid, they represent a/n _______(2)
Geralt often buys potions and elixirs from various alchemists to help his fighting ability. However, he can make these potions and elixirs himself if he has the time. If he were to do this instead of buying from the alchemists, this would constitute a form of________ (3)
When Geralt takes a contract, it usually requires about a week of planning and preparation, which includes trips to the armorer, time spent making alchemical concoctions that protect him during the confrontation with the monster(s), and the staking out of ideal fighting ground when the battle occurs. As such, Geralt ofter has to choose between contracts, sometimes accepting one contract while forgoing the opportunity to pursue another contract. As we have discussed, this decision constitutes a_________ (4).
Now, let's say that Geralt is governed by a neutral "Council of Witchers" that ensure that those who purchase Geralt's services (e.g., rich villages or principalities plagued by monster infestations) are well-served, and that Geralt spends their gold in ways that work toward the removal of the targeted monsters which these clients have paid to have removed.
We might say that this "Council" serves as Geralt's role in this arrangement. Geralt, in turn, serves as the ______(5) and that the purchasers of Geralt's services, such as rich villages, represent the________ (6) in this arrangement. х (1) differentiation (2) buyer х (3) forward integration (4) tradeoff (5) management х (6) party __________(7) agent

Answers

Answer: 1. Differentiation focus

2. Buyer

3. Backward Integration

4. Trade off

5. Board of directors

6. Principal

7. Agent

Explanation:

1. Geralt is using Differentiation focus strategy as it gives the customers a product which they believe is superior than other similar products although the price if the product is higher than others. The product is unique from other products.

2. When Geralt takes a contract from a rich village seeking his aid, they represent a buyer.

3. If Geralt makes the potions and elixirs himself if he has the time rather than buying from the alchemists, this would constitute a form of backward integration. This is because he's expanding his role by taking up a task that's being completed previously in the supply chain.

4. Since Geralt has to choose between contracts, this is a trade off. Trade occurs when we've to choose between alternatives. In this case, we forgo some at the expense of others.

5. Based in the information given, Geralt serves as the board of director.

6. Those who buy Geralt's services, such as rich villages, represent the Principal.

7. Geralt serves as the agent. He's the one negotiating contracts and supplying what's needed.
