a. Fethe's Funny Hats is considering selling trademarked, orange-haired curly wigs for University of Tennessee football games. The purchase cost for a 2-year franchise to sell the wigs is $20,000. If demand is good (40% probability), then the net cash flows will be $27,000 per year for 2 years. If demand is bad (60% probability), then the net cash flows will be $6,000 per year for 2 years. Fethe's cost of capital is 13%. What is the expected NPV of the project?

b. If Fethe makes the investment today, then it will have the option to renew the franchise fee for 2 more years at the end of Year 2 for an additional payment of $20,000. In this case, the cash flows that occurred in Years 1 and 2 will be repeated (so if demand was good in Years 1 and 2, it will continue to be good in Years 3 and 4). Write out the decision tree. Note: The franchise fee payment at the end of Year 2 is known, so it should be discounted at the risk-free rate, which is 4%. Use decision-tree analysis to calculate the expected NPV.

Answers

Answer:

A) initial outlay = $20,000

expected cash flows = (40% x $27,000) + (60% x $6,000) = $14,400

NPV = -$20,000 + $14,400/1.13 + $14,400/1.13² = $4,020.68

B)   Fethe acquires franchise $20,000

things go bad, NPV = -$20,000 + $6,000/1.13 + $6,000/1.13² = -$9,991.39. The project is abandoned after the first 2 years.things go well, NPV = -$20,000 + $27,000/1.13 + $27,000/1.13² = $25,038.77. The franchise is renewed for 2 more years.

⇒ since the project continues, the present value of the cash flows are:

year 0 = -$20,000

year 1 = $27,000/1.13 = $23,893.81

year 2 = $27,000/1.13² - $20,000/1.04² = $5,482.03

year 3 = $27,000/1.13³ = $18,712.35

year 4 = $27,000/1.13⁴ = $16,559.61

NPV = $44,647.80

Lovely Lotion Inc. produces three different lotions: hand, body, and foot. The lotions are produced jointly in a mixing process that costs a total of $250 per batch. At the split-off point, one batch produces 80, 40, and 25 bottles of hand, body, and foot lotion, respectively. After the split-off point, hand lotion is sold immediately for $2.50 per bottle. Body lotion is processed further at an additional cost of $0.25 per bottle and then sold for $5.75 per bottle. Foot lotion is processed further at an additional cost of $0.85 per bottle and then sold for $4.00 per bottle. Assume that body and foot lotion could be sold at the split-off point for $3.00 and $3.20 per bottle, respectively.
1. Using the market value at split-off method, allocate the joint costs of production to each product.
2. A lotion manufacturing company produces three types of lotions. After the split-off point the company continues to sell the body lotion and makes $0.25 profit per bottle. The foot lotion generates $0.05 loss per bottle. Which lotion should be continued after the split-off point?
A. Hand lotion.
B. Body lotion.
C. Foot lotion.
D. Body and foot lotion.
3. Allocate the joint costs of production to each product using the net realizable value method.

Answers

Answer:

1) Hand lotion :  Joint cost = $250

body lotion : joint cost = $250

foot lotion : Joint cost = $250

2) Body lotion

The joint costs of production for each product is : $250

Explanation:

cost per batch = $250

At spit off point

one batch produces : 80 bottles of hand lotion, 40 body lotions, 25 foot lotion

After spit-off point : Hand lotion is $2.5 per bottle

cost of further processing of body lotion  = $0.25

value of body lotion = $5.75

cost of further processing of foot lotion = $0.85

market value of foot lotion = $4.00

Assuming that body and foot lotion could be sold at the split-off point for $3.00 and $3.20 per bottle, respectively.

1 ) using the market value at split-off method to allocate the joint costs of production to each product

Hand lotion :  Joint cost = $250

body lotion : joint cost = $250

foot lotion : Joint cost = $250

this is because the joint cost of producing each product in every batch is the same

2) The lotion that should be continued after split-off is  

      Body lotion because the market value after split-off - cost for further production  is better off other lotions ( highest market value after split-off)

i.e : $5.75 - $0.25 = $ 5.50

The joint costs of production for each product is : $250

Is cost minimization equivalent or identical the concept of product maximization. True of False. Explain

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Given a certain production level, cost minimization is equal to product maximization. Cost minimization refers to the production level where average total cost per unit is lowest. On the other hand, production maximization refers to maximizing product output given certain restraints, e.g. amount of raw materials, number of labor hours, etc. Product maximization basically refers to the efficiency of production.

If someone can achieve product maximization and cost minimization, they should be maximizing profit.

A 50-kilowatt gas turbine has an investment cost of $40,000. It costs another $14,000 for shipping, insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks. The operation and maintenance expense for this turbine is $450 per year. Additionally, the hourly fuel expense for running the turbine is $7.50 per hour, and the turbine is expected to operate 3,000 hours each year. The cost of dismantling and disposing of the turbine at the end of its 8-year life is $8,000.

Required:
a. If the MARR is 15% per year, what is the annual equivalent life-cycle cost of the gas turbine?
b. What percent of annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel?

Answers

Answer:

The annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = -$35,569.8

The percentage  fuel cost = 63.25%

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let's start with the initial investment cost, which can be expressed by using the formula:

Initial investment cost = Investment cost of turbine + cost including shipping,  insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks.)

Initial investment cost = $40,000 + $14000

Initial investment cost = $54000

However, The annual fuel expense = hourly fuel expense for running turbine × total number of operating hour per year

The annual fuel expense = $7.50 × 3000

The annual fuel expense = $22,500

Therefore, the total operating cost per year = operating & maintenance cost per year + fuel expenses per year

the total operating cost per year = $(450 + 22500)

the total operating cost per year = $22,950

If the minimum acceptable rate of return MARR is 15%, then the number of years is 8 years

Therefore, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AC) of the gas turbine can be computed as follows:

AC(15%) = -54000 (A/P, 15%, 8) - $22950-$8000(A/F,15%,8)

where;

(A/P,15%,8) = annual worth factor of a present worth

(A/F,15%,8) = annual worth factor of future worth for 8 years and 15% interest rate.

If we use the discrete compounding table when i = 15%;

Value of (A/P,15%,8) = 0.229

Value of (A/F,15%,8) = 0.0729

AC(15%) = -$54,000(0.2229) - $22,950 -$8000(0.0729)

AC(15%) = -$12,036.6 -$22950 -$583.2

AC(15%) = -$35,569.8

Therefore, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = -$35,569.8

b.

The percentage of the annual life-cycle cost related to the fuel can be calculated by using the formula :

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = \dfrac{fuel \ cost \ per \ year}{total \ annual \ life \ cycle \ cost }\times 100\%}[/tex]

Replacing our values from above, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = \dfrac{\$22500}{\$35,569.8}\times 100\%}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = 0.6325\times 100\%}[/tex]

The percentage  fuel cost = 63.25%

Based on the given information, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost of the gas turbine is "$35,569.80," while the percent of the annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel is "65.87%."

This is based on the calculation below:

Given that: Initial investment cost => Investment cost of turbine + cost including shipping, insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks.

Hence, we have the following:

Initial investment cost = $40,000 + $14,000;

=> Initial investment cost = $54,000.

On the other hand, The annual fuel expense = hourly fuel expense for running turbine × total number of operating hour per year;

Thus, we have the following:

The annual fuel expense = $7.50 × 3,000;

The annual fuel expense = $22,500.

Also, since, the total operating cost per year = operating & maintenance cost per year + fuel expenses per year;

We have the following:

the total operating cost per year = $(450 + 22,500);

the total operating cost per year = $22,950.

Therefore, given that the minimum acceptable rate of return MARR is 15%, then the number of years is 8 years.

Then, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AC) of the gas turbine is measured as:

AC (15%) = -54,000 (A/P, 15%, 8) - $22,950 - $8,000 (A/F,15%,8);

Here, we have the following details;

(A/P,15%,8) = annual worth factor of a present worth;

(A/F,15%,8) = annual worth factor of future worth for 8 years and 15% interest rate.

This, given that we use the discrete compounding table when i = 15%;

We have the following:

Value of (A/P,15%,8) = 0.229;

Value of (A/F,15%,8) = 0.0729.

AC (15%) = -$54,000 (0.2229) - $22,950 -$8,000 (0.0729);

AC(15%) = -$12,036.60 -$22,950 -$583.20;

AC(15%) = -$35,569.80.

Hence, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = $35,569.80.

Similarly, the percent of the annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel is measured as = ($35,569.8 ÷ $54,000) × 100

=> 65.87%.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the lifecycle cost is essential when measuring the productivity of a project.

Assume that in the short run a firm is producing 500 units of output, has average total costs of $300, and has average variable costs of $220. The firm's total fixed costs are. Select one: a. $40,000. b. $6.25. c. $0.16. d. $80.

Answers

Answer:

Total fixed costs= $40,000

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total variable cost and total cost:

Total cost= 500*300= $150,000

Total variable cost= 500*220= $110,000

Now, we can calculate the total fixed costs:

Total fixed costs= total cost - total variable cost

Total fixed costs= 150,000 - 110,000

Total fixed costs= $40,000

Environmental forecasting can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves the management predicting the future characteristics of an external environment of the organization for good decisions making.

Hence, the purpose of environmental forecasting is to predict change.

Environmental forecasting is a management strategy that focuses on systematically acquiring informations about occasions, trends, events or patterns through surveys and analysis of these information in an organisation's external and internal environment. The informations acquired through environmental scanning is then used by the executive management in strategically planning the organisation's future and exploitation of available opportunities for the success of the organization.

Generally, the environmental forecasting gives an overview of the opportunities in the market as well as potential threats to an organization.

Hence, the following are descriptive of an environmental forecasting;

1. Used as a tool for corporations to avoid strategic surprise.

2. Used to monitor, evaluate, and disseminate information relevant to the organizational development of strategy.

3. Used to determine a firm's competitive advantage.

Liabilities

Answers

Answer:

It is very difficult to record T accounts since there is not a lot of room here and things get complicated very easily. So I used an excel spreadsheet to post the accounts on an accounting equation format.

Assets increase when they are debited and they decrease when they are credited. The opposite happens to liabilities and equity, they increase when they are credited and decrease when they are debited. Service revenue is credited, while all expenses are debited.

The reason why the drawings account has a negative balance is that even though it is an equity account, it has a debit balance since it decreases capital.

In order for the equation to balance, you have to close the accounts, but that was not a requirement of the question.

Bill and Ted are deciding what musical instruments they want to learn pick between the guitar, keyboard, and the drums to play for their band. They can They both want to have a good band, but also each has a preference over what to play. Both like the guitar over all else. However, Bill likes the keyboard more than the drums and Ted likes the drums more than the keyboard. What is crucial is that each chooses a different instrument, otherwise the band is pretty terrible. The actual combination does not affect the quality of the band. One night, Bill and Ted simultaneously reveal to each other what instrument they have bought and learned to play. Since they bought AND learned to play the instru- are committed to it! Given the information above, answer the following: ment they
1. Does either Bill or Ted have a dominant/dominated strategy? Explain
2. If Bill picks the keyboard, is it a best response for Ted to pick the drums? Explain
3. If Ted picks the guitar, is it a best response for Bill to pick the keyboard? Explain
4. Can there exist a Nash equilibrium in which Bill picks the drums and Ted picks the keyboard? Explain
5. Can there exist a Nash Equlibrium in which Bill picks the guitar and Ted picks the drums? Explain

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. There is no dominant strategy as each person has to respond with a different strategy like using a different instrument depending on the instrument chosen by the other to achieve best payoff

2. If Bill picks keyboard then it would be best for Ted to pick guitar as this is his preferred instrument which would bring best payoff

3. If Ted picks guitar, then bull should pick keyboard which he prefers and would be the best payoff

4. A nash equilibrium would not exist here since Ted should choose guitar if bull chooses drums and bill should choose guitar if Ted chooses keyboard

5. A Nash equilibrium can exist here since Ted should choose drums when bill chooses guitar.

MullerB Company’s employees earn vacation time at the rate of 1 hour per 40-hour work period. The vacation pay vests immediately, meaning an employee is entitled to the pay even if employment terminates. During 2018, total wages paid to employees equaled $909,000, including $9,000 for vacations actually taken in 2018, but not including vacations related to 2018 that will be taken in 2019. All vacations earned before 2018 were taken before January 1, 2018. No accrual entries have been made for the vacations.

Required:
Prepare the appropriate adjusting entry for vacations earned but not taken in 2018.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:-

Vacation benefits expense Dr, $13,500

       To Vacation benefits payable $13,500

(Being vacation benefits expense is recorded)

Vacation benefits payable = Actual vacation benefit - Vacation actually taken in 2018 but not includes vacation related to 2018

= (($909,000 - $9,000) × (1 ÷ 40)) - $9,000

= ($900,000 × 0.025) - $9,000

= $13,500

Tulip Company produces two products, T and U. The indirect labor costs include the following two items:
Plant supervision $700,000
Setup labor (indirect) 300,000
Total indirect labor $1,000,000
The following activity-base usage and unit production information is available for the two products:
Number of setups Direct Labor Hours Units
Product T 200 20,000 900
Product U 200 30,000 1,100
Total 400 50,000 2,000
(a) Determine the single plantwide factory overhead rate, using direct labor hour as the activity base.
(b) Determine the factory overhead cost per unit for Products T and U, using the single plantwide factory overhead rate.
(c) Determine the activity rate for plant supervision and setup labor, assuming that the activity base for supervision is direct labor hours and the activity base for setup is number of setups.
(d) Determine the factory overhead cost per unit for Products T and U, using activity-based costing.
(e) Why is the factory overhead cost per unit different for the two products under the two methods?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Total factory overhead = $1,000,000

Total direct labor hours = 50,000

Rate per hour = $1,000,000/50,000

= $20

Number of labor hours, product T = 20,000

Factory overhead = 20,000 × $20 = $400,000

Number of labor hours, product U = 30,000

Factory overhead = 30,000 × $20 = $600,000

b. Product T, factory overhead = $400000

Units = 900

Per unit factory overhead = $400,000/900

= 444.44

Product T, factory overhead = $600000

Units = 1100

Per unit factory overhead = $600,000/1100

= 545.46

c. Supervision = $700,000

Direct labor hours = 50000

Supervision rate per hour = $700000/50000

= $14

Set up labor = $300,000

Number of setup = 400

Supervision rate per hour = $300000/400

= $750

d. For product T:

Plant Supervision = 20,000 × 14 = 280,000

Set-up labor = 200 × 750 = 150,000

Total cost = 430,000

Number of unit = 900

Factory overhead per unit = 430,000/900 = 477.8

For product U:

Plant Supervision = 30,000 × 14 = 420,000

Set-up labor = 200 × 750 = 150,000

Total cost = 570,000

Number of unit = 1100

Factory overhead per unit = 570,000/1100 = 518.2

e. For the first part, the factory overhead is being divided using direct labor hours.

For the second part, the factory overhead is being aportioned using activity based costing.

Assume the perpetual inventory system is used. Determine the costs assigned to ending inventory when costs are assigned based on the weighted average method. (Round your per unit costs to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The information about inventory and sales is missing, so I looked for a similar question:

Beginning inventory, January 1: 390 units at  $3.80 Purchase January 9: 90 units at  $4.00 Purchase January 25: 120 units at $4.10 Sale January 26: 430 units Ending inventory, January 31:  170 units

Beginning inventory on January 1: 390 $3.80 = $1,482

Purchase on January 9: 90 $4.00 = $360

Purchase on January 25: 120 $4.10 = $492

total number of units = 600

total value = $2,334

average cost per unit = $3.89

cost of goods sold = 430 units x $3.89 = $1,672.70

ending inventory = 170 units x $3.89 = $661.30  

The maintenance director has grown to value your insights and thoughtful questions when preparing bid packets to support her team's best work. As it turns out, her predecessor verbally modified the LED lights' model ordered by your employer when the original, awarded bid reponse included the model number for LEDs noted by the maintenance staff--that were not compatible with the fixtures of the company buildings/structures. When the maintenance director asks your opinion about her plan to amend the existing contract with the LED supplier to the model numbers actually used, as opposed to the ones listed in the contract that are not compliant with the existing features. That's what they have been doing so you should probably amend the contract as the director suggests, and you will save more time (no rebidding) and money (no additional modifications to the facility) than rebidding.

The shoe buyer plans to promote flip-flop sandals at $24.99. The buyer needs to purchase10,000 flip flops for the event. 6,000 flip-flop sandals have been purchased at a cost of $11.50. The planned markup for the event is 59.0%. What will be the average cost of the remaining sandals?

Answers

Answer:

$22.04

Explanation:

Sales price per sandal = $24.99

Sales price of 10,000 sandals = $24.99*10,000 = $249,900

Markup percentage = 59%

Cost of 10,000 sandals = $249,900 / 1 + 59%

Cost of 10,000 sandals = $249,900 / 1.59

Cost of 10,000 sandals = $157169.81

Cost of 10,000 sandals =        $157,169.81

Less: Cost of 6000 sandals = $69,000   ($11.5*6,000)

Cost of the remaining 4,000   $88,169.81

Average cost of the remaining sandals = $88,169.81/4,000 sandals

Average cost of the remaining sandals = $22.0424525

Average cost of the remaining sandals = $22.04

Telecomp is a U.S.-based manufacturer of cellular telephones. It is planning to build a new manufacturing and distribution facility in either South Korea, China, Taiwan, Poland, or Mexico. The cost of the facility will differ between countries and will even vary within countries depending on the economic and political climate, including monetary exchange rates. The company has estimated the facility cost (in $ millions) in each country under three different future economic/political climates as follows.Economic/Political Climate Country Decline Same Improve South Korea 21.7 19.1 15.2 China 19.0 18.5 17.6 Taiwan 19.2 17.1 14.9 Poland 22.5 16.8 13.8 Mexico 25.0 21.2 12.5 Determine the best decision using the following decision criteria. (Note that since the payoff is cost, the maximax criteria becomes minimax and maximin becomes minimax.)
a. Maximin
b. Minimax
c. Hurwicz ( 0.40)
d. Equal likelihood

Answers

Answer:

a. Maximin =  19.0

b. Minimax  = 17.6

c. Hurwicz ( 0.40)  = Taiwan

d. Equal likelihood = Taiwan

Explanation:

Remember, we are told to: Note that since the payoff is cost, the maximax criteria becomes minimax and maximin becomes minimax

a) Maximin: Since the payoff is cost, we begin by determining the maximum cost for each alternative and then selecting the one which gives the minimum of these maximums. (minimax)

b) Minimax: Since the payoff is cost, we begin by determining the minimum cost for each alternative and then selecting the one which gives the maximum of these minimums. (maximin).

c) Hurwicz (0.40): In this method, we add and multiply each payoff value by alpha (0.4).

South Korea = 15.2 (0.4) + 21.7 (0.6) = 19.1 ( remember, in $ millions)

China = 17.6 (0.4) + 19.0 (0.6) = 18.44

Taiwan = 14.9 (0.4) + 19.2 (0.6) = 17.48

Poland = 13.8 (0.4) + 22.5 (0.6) = 19.02

Mexico = 12.5 (0.4) + 25.0 (0.6) = 20

From the values above we select the minimum outcome since the company is looking at saving cost. Which is Taiwan; having the lowest cost of $17.48 million.

d) Using the formula [tex]\frac{P_{1} +P_{2}+P_{3}...P_{n} }{n}[/tex] where P = payoffs value, n = number of events.

South Korea =  15.2 + 21.7 + 19.1 /3 = 18.66

China = 17.6 + 19.0 + 18.5 /3 = 18.36

Taiwan = 14.9 + 19.2 +17.1 /3 = 17.06

Poland = 13.8 + 22.5 + 16.8 /3 = 17.7

Mexico = 12.5 + 25.0 + 21.2 /3 = 19.56

Taiwan should be selected since it has the lowest cost of $17.06 million.

Chelene had been a caregiver for Marta’s elderly mother, Janis, for nine years. Shortly before Janis passed away, Chelene convinced her to buy Chelene’s house for Marta. Janis died before the papers were signed, however. Four months later, Marta used her inheritance to buy Chelene’s house without having it inspected. The house was built in the 1950s, and Chelene said it was in "perfect condition." Nevertheless, one year after the purchase, the basement started leaking. Marta had the paneling removed from the basement walls and discovered that the walls were bowed inward and cracked. Marta then had a civil engineer inspect the basement walls, and he found that the cracks had been caulked and painted over before the paneling was installed. He concluded that the "wall failure" had existed "for at least thirty years" and that the basement walls were "structurally unsound." Using the information presented in the chapter, answer the following questions.
1. Can Marta avoid the contract on the ground that both parties made a mistake about the condition of the house? Explain. 2. Can Marta sue Chelene for fraudulent misrepresentation? Why or why not? What element (or elements) might be lacking?. 3. Now assume that Chelene knew that the basement walls were cracked and bowed and that she hired someone to install paneling before offering to sell the house. Did she have a duty to disclose this defect to Marta? Could a court find that Chelene's silence in this situation constituted misrepresentation? Explain.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. Marta cannot avoid the contract on the basis of a mistake of buying the house because she was supposed to inspect the house she was buying

2. Marta cannot sue Chelene for fraudulent misrepresentation because Chelene was not aware of the condition of the house. The elements in fraudulent misrepresentation are lacking : no intention to deceive, no misrepresentation of material facts

3. It would be Chelene's duty to reveal that there is defect in the house and if not the court would see this as misresprentation.

4. There was no undue influence from Chelene in selling the house and so Marta and Janis even she was alive cannot revoke the contract on this basis
