PCM Thermal Products uses austenitic nickel-chromium alloys to manufacture resistance heating wire. The company is considering a new annealing-drawing process to reduce costs. If the new process will cost $3.25 million dollars now, how much must be saved each year to recover the investment in 6 years at an interest rate of 15% per year

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the amount that need to be saved each year in order to recover the investment is $858,770

Explanation:

The computation of the amount saved each year is shown below:

= Costing of the new process × (A/P, 15%, 6)

= $3,250,000 × 0.26424

= $858,770

hence, the amount that need to be saved each year in order to recover the investment is $858,770

The Profit margin rate measure the success with respect of earnings on sales thus more investigations must be done on what caused the earnings to decline in 2017.

Part 1

Cost of Goods Sold has increased by $28,000 ($1,015,000 -$987,000). Income tax rate has not changed.

a. Impact of the change on multi-step income statement

The items of Gross Profit and Income from Operations will decline by $28,000.

b. Impact of the change on profitability ratios

The Profit ratios will decline. Profit margin will be 1.73 %. Gross Profit margin will be 50.49 %

Explanation:

Other Workings :

Profit margin = Net Income / Net Sales x 100

                     =  $63,500 / $2,050,000 x 100

                     =  3.10 %

Gross Profit rate = Gross Profit / Net Sales x 100

                           = $1,063,000 / $2,050,000 x 100

                           =51.85 %

High Desert Pottery works makes a variety of pottery products that it sells to retailers. The company uses a job-order costing system in which departmental predetermined overhead rates are used to apply manufacturing overhead cost to jobs. The predetermined overhead rate in the Molding Department is based on machine-hours, and the rate in the Painting Department is based on direct labor- hours. At the beginning Of the year, the company provided the following estimates:

Direct labor-hours 36,500 50,100
Machine-hours 87,000 32,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $174,000 $445,890
Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour $3.20 -
Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour - $5.20

Job 205 was started on August 1 and completed on August 10. The company's cost records show the following information concerning the job:

Department
Molding Painting
Direct labor-hours 76 132
Machine-hours 350 66
Direct materials $938 $1,220
Direct labor cost $720 $1,020

Required:
a. Compute the predetermined overhead rates used in the Molding Department and the Painting Department.
b. Compute the total overhead cost applied to Job 205.
c. What would be the total manufacturing cost recorded for Job 205?
d. If the job contained 22 units, what would be the unit product cost?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

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

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

Molding:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (174,000/87,000) + 3.2

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $5.2 per machine hour

Painting:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 445,890/50,100 + 5.2

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.1

Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 205:

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

Allocated MOH= 5.2*350 + 14.1*132

Allocated MOH= $3,681.2

Finally, the unitary cost of Job 205:

Total cost= (938 + 1,220) + (720 + 1,020) + 3,681.2

Total cost= $7,579

Unitary cost= 7,579/22

Unitary cost= $344.51

At Medallion Industries, variable cost per unit is budgeted to be $8.00 and fixed cost per unit is budgeted to be $5.00 in a period when 4,000 units are produced. What is the expected total cost of the units produced at Medallion, if instead, production is actually 5,100 units

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $60,800

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

For 4,000 units:

Unitary variable cost= $8

Unitary fixed cost= $5

First, we need to calculate the total fixed cost:

Total fixed cost= 5*4,000= $20,000

Now, we can determine the total cost for 5,100 units:

Total cost= 5,100*8 + 20,000

Total cost= $60,800

1. Friedman distinguishes between the two concepts that (a) businesses really do act in ways to maximize profit and (b) businesses have a moral responsibility (or, as he puts it, a social responsibility) to act to maximize profit. How does he defend the latter position? (See both the Friedman and Sandbu readings)

Answers

Explanation:

Friedman defends the position that companies have a social responsibility to act to maximize profit, in the sense that, the primary function of companies is to generate profit. The author goes against the growing opinions in society that companies must have social responsibility, that is, they need to create a positive and sensitive corporate image to please political and society interests and counter or even soften the words and actions its central purpose, which is profit generation. For him, social responsibility cannot be politicized in order to be an obligation of companies, as it limits freedom and interests arising from the business.

First add the market values = 444,150 + 255,150 + 56,700 + 189,000 = $945,0

00

Building allocated price                                     Land allocated price

= 444,150/ 945,000 * 830,000                        = 255,150/945,000 * 830,000

= $‭390,100‬                                                           = $224,100

Land improvement allocated price                  Four vehicles allocate price

DRK, Inc., has just sold 100,000 shares in an initial public offering. The underwriter’s explicit fees were $60,000. The offering price for the shares was $40, but immediately upon issue, the share price jumped to $44. a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue? b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters? multiple choice Yes No

Answers

Answer: a. $460,000 ; b. No

Explanation:

a. What is the total cost to DRK of the equity issue?

First, we calculate the implicit cost per share which will be:

= $44 - $40 = $4.

Therefore, the total implicit cost will be:

= $4 × 100,000

= $400,000

Therefore, total cost to DRK of the equity issue will be:

= Implicit cost + Explicit cost

= $400,000 + $60,000

= $460,000

b. Is the entire cost of the underwriting a source of profit to the underwriters?

No. The entire cost of the underwriting would not be a source of profit to the underwriters. This is because the cost of underpricing isn't included.

A company has derivatives transactions with Banks A, B, and C which are worth +$20 million, −$15 million, and −$25 million, respectively to the company. How much margin or collateral does the company have to provide? The transactions are cleared bilaterally and are subject to one-way collateral agreements where the company posts variation margin, but no initial margin. The transactions are cleared centrally through the same CCP and the CCP requires a total initial margin of $10 million.

Answers

Answer:

1. With Bilateral Clearing, where the company posts variation margin, but no initial margin:

The company has to provide collateral to Banks A, B, and C of $0 million, $15 million, and $25 million respectively.  

Therefore, the total collateral required is $40 million.  

2. With Central Clearing through the CCP, where the CCP usually requires an initial margin of $10 million:

The derivatives are netted against each other, and the company’s total variation margin is $20 million (–$20 + $15 + $25) in total.  

The total margin required (including the initial margin) is, therefore, $30 million ($20 + $10 million).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Worth of derivative with Bank A = +$20 million

Worth of derivative with Bank B = -$15 million

Worth of derivative with Bank C = -$25 million

b) In a bilateral clearing, the company and each bank (called market participants) enter into an agreement with each other to cover all outstanding derivative transactions between the two parties.  On the other hand, in central clearing, a central clearing party (CCP) stands between the two sides of an OTC derivative transaction in much the same way that the exchange clearing house does for exchange-traded contracts.

If the corresponding tax rate is 20%, how much money in total will you expect to receive in a year after paying taxes.

Answers

Answer:

$15,869.66

Explanation:

The formula for determining the future value of the amount invested is :

FV = PV x (1 + r / m)^mn

FV = Future value  

PV = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

m = number of compounding

$15,000 x (1+ 0.06/12)^12 = $15,925.17

Interest earned = future value - present value

$15,925.17 - $15,000 = $925.17

Tax paid on interest earned = 0.06 x  $925.17 = $55.51

Interest after taxes = $925.17 - $55.51 = $869.66

Total amount expected = $15,000 + $869.66 = $15,869.66

Consider Pacific Energy Company and U.S. Bluechips, Inc., both of which reported earnings of $967,000. Without new projects, both firms will continue to generate earnings of $967,000 in perpetuity. Assume that all earnings are paid as dividends and that both firms require a return of 13%.
A. What is the current PE ratio for each company?
B. Pacific Energy Company has a new project that will generate additional earnings of $117,000 each year in perpetuity. Calculate the new PE ratio of the company.
C. Atlantic Energy has a new project that will increase earnings by $217,000 in perpetuity. Calculate the new PE ratio of the firm.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Current PE ratio is

For Pacific energy company

= Price ÷ Earnings

= ($967,000 ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 7.69 times

For U.S Bluechips

= Price ÷ Earnings

= ($967,000 ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 7.69 times

b. The new PE ratio is

= Price ÷ Earnings

= (($967,000 + $117,000) ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 8.62 times

c. The new PE ratio is

= Price ÷ Earnings

= (($967,000 + $217,000) ÷ 0.13) ÷ ($967,000)

= 9.42 times

Economists develop models to A. capture every detail of the real world. B. justify the assumptions they make about%E2%80%8B people's behavior. C. make their arguments more realistic. D. help us understand economic phenomena in the real world.

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

An economic model is a caricature of reality. It allows users to observe, understand and predict economic phenomena. Economic models don't capture every detail of the real world

Examples of economic models include :

the production possibility frontierthe Keynesian IS/LM modelthe Mundell-Fleming model.

The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.  

The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.  

A partial listing of costs incurred at Gilhooly Corporation during September appears below: Direct materials $183,000 Utilities, factory $9,000 Administrative salaries $90,000 Indirect labor $25,000 Sales commissions $33,000 Depreciation of production equipment $25,000 Depreciation of administrative equipment $32,000 Direct labor $124,000 Advertising $148,000 The total of the manufacturing overhead costs listed above for September is: Group of answer choices $669,000 $366,000 $34,000 $59,000

Answers

Answer:

Manufacturing overhead= $59,000

Explanation:

Manufacturing overhead refers to indirect factory-related costs that are incurred when a product is manufactured. We need to identify the indirect costs incurred in production. It includes the depreciation of factory equipment.

Manufacturing overhead= Utilities, factory + Indirect labor + Depreciation of production equipment

Manufacturing overhead= 9,000 + 25,000 + 25,000

Manufacturing overhead= $59,000

During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000. As of year end, Beta had resold only 60 percent of these intra-entity purchases. Alpha sells inventory to Beta at the same markup it uses for all of its customers. What is the total for consolidated cost of goods sold

Answers

Answer:

a. $173,000

Explanation:

Missing word "Alpha Company owns 80 percent of the voting stock of Beta Company. Alpha and Beta reported the following account information from their year-end separate financial records: Alpha Beta Inventory $95,000 $88,000 Sales Revenue 800,000 300,000 Cost of Goods Sold 600,000 180,000 During the current year, Alpha sold inventory to Beta for $100,000."

Percentage of profits Alpha charge to other customers = ($800,000 - $600,000) / $800,000 = 25% of sales

Stock held at year end by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $100,000 * 40% =$40,000

Profit involved in stock held by beta from the purchases made from Alpha = $40,000 * 25% = $10,000

So, Value of stock of Beta = $88,000 - $10,000 = $78,000

Hence, Total for consolidated inventory = $95,000 + $78,000 = $173,000

Kostelnik Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company based its predetermined overhead rate for the current year on total fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $555,000, variable manufacturing overhead of $2.10 per machine-hour, and 74,000 machine-hours. The company has provided the following data concerning Job A496 which was recently completed:
Number of units in the job 20
Total machine hours 80
Direct materials $500
Direct labor cost $2,160
The amount of overhead applied to job A496 is closes to____.
A) $1,256.
B) $632.
C) $944.
D) $312.

Answers

Answer:

Allocated MOH= $768

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= (555,000/74,000) + 2.1

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $9.6 per machine hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to Job A496:

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

Allocated MOH= 9.6*80

Allocated MOH= $768

Assume that you live in California and are on vacation, traveling by car from California to Texas. You are injured in a motel room when the bed on which you are sleeping collapses, causing you to fall to the floor. You suffer substantial back and leg injuries, requiring many medical treatments and causing you to miss work for 15 weeks. Your medical bills total $50,000 and your lost wages total $15,000. You intend to sue the owner of the Texas motel.

Required:
a. Can you bring your case in federal court? Why or why not?
b. Can you commence the case in California? What additional information might you need to answer this question?
c. At the end of the trial, the jury awards you $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages). After the trial, the attorney for the hotel approaches and offers to settle the case for $50,000. Should you consider accepting the settlement? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

a. No.  A state court will do a better job in this case because it exercises unlimited jurisdiction.  Moreover, you can only bring your case to a federal court if the amount of your claim is up to $75,000 or the issue is exclusive to the federal court.  This is not the case here.

b. Yes and No.  We need some additional information about the accident location to help answer this question definitively.

c. No. You should not consider accepting the offered settlement.  The jury award is meant to pay for your medical bills and also to help you recover financially as though the accident did not happen in the first place.  Accepting any lesser amount after the judgment is rendered is in bad taste.  The other party should have negotiated to settle out of court before the final judgment was rendered.  But it did not.  So, go with the jury award.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Missed work for 15 weeks

Total medical bills incurred = $50,000

Total lost wages incurred = $15,000

Jury award = $100,000 ($50,000 for medical, $15,000 for lost wages and $35,000 for punitive damages)

Settlement offer = $50,000

Departmental overhead rates are preferred over plantwide rates when: Multiple Choice The plant makes a single product. The products use different amounts of different processes in different departments. There are a number of different products in the plant which go through the same processes. The plant has a complex production process for a small number of products that go through the same production processes.

Answers

Answer:

The products use different amounts of different processes in different departments

Explanation:

Plant Wide overhead rates is basically a single rate that is used to assign to the company's manufacturing overhead costs. This is best used when a company produces single product. On the other hand, if the manufacturing of different products with use of different processes is being done then using plant wide rate (which applies only a single rate) might not be appropriate.

The activities of the diversified products would have a high correlation with regard to the input of overheads. Therefore, the departmental overhead rates are preferred when the products use different amounts of different processes in different departments.

Answers

Answer:

$4,355.26  

Explanation:

The net present value is the present value of future cash flows expected from the project minus the initial investment outlay

initial investment outlay=working capital investment = -$10,000

Years 1-5 cash inflow=$2,000

Year 6 cash inflow=normal cash inflows+release of working capital

Year 6 cash inflow=$2,000+$10,000=$12,000

the present value of a future cash flow=cash flow/(1+r)^n

n is 1 for year cash inflow 2 for year 2 cash inflow, 3 for year 3 cash inflow and so on

NPV=-$10,000+$2,000/(1+10%)^1+$2,000/(1+10%)^2+$2,000/(1+10%)^3+$2,000/(1+10%)^4+$2,000/(1+10%)^5+$12,000/(1+10%)^6

Blue Jeans $70.00 20 $20.00 90
Laptops $300.00 5 $300.00 5
2000 nominal GDP = $_________
2001 nominal GDP = $_________
2000 real GDP = $_________
2001 real GDP = $_________

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Nominal GDP = Sum of (Present Year Price × Present Year Quantity)

And,  

Real GDP = Sum of (Base Year Price × Present Year Quantity)

Now

(a) Nominal GDP, 2000 is

= $[(7 × 600) + (70 × 20) + (300 × 5)]

= $4,200 + $1,400 + $1,500

= $7,100

(b) Nominal GDP, 2001 is

= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]

= ($1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500)

= $4,500

(c) Real GDP, 2000 is

= $[(3 × 600) + (20 × 20) + (300 × 5)]

= $1,800 + $400 + 1,500

= $3,700

(d) Real GDP, 2001 is

= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]

= $1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500

= $4,500
