2. You are considering entry into a market in which there is currently only one producer (incumbent). If you enter and the incumbent prices low (fights) then you will both lose 10 million. If you enter and the incumbent accommodates than you both will earn 3 Million. If you stay out of the market you will earn nothing and the incumbent will earn 7 million. What is the best strategy for you as the entrant in the market.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a.  You should enter if you expect the incumbent to accommodate

Explanation:

If you expect the incumbent to be accommodating then it is best to enter the market because you will earn 3 million along with the incumbent.

This will be a gain for the both of you that has a chance of success because fighting you will be to the detriment of the incumbent as they will then stand to lose 10 million like you will as well.

The option of the incumbent being accommodating is the best option for the both of you.

Badger Company had $1,060,000 of sales in each of three consecutive years 2012–2014, and it purchased merchandise costing $580,000 in each of those years. It also maintained a $360,000 physical inventory from the beginning to the end of that three-year period. In accounting for inventory, it made an error at the end of year 2012 that caused its year-end 2012 inventory to appear on its statements as $340,000 rather than the correct $360,000.

Cooley Company's stock has a beta of 1.40, the risk-free rate is 25%, and the market risk premium is 5.50%. What is the firm's required rate of return

Answers

Answer: 12.2%

Explanation:

Given the variables available, the required rate of return can be computed using the Capital Asset Pricing Model with the formula;

Required Return = Risk-free rate + beta ( Market risk premium)

Required return = 4.25% + 1.4 * 5.5%

Required return = 4.25% + 7.7%

Required return = 12.2%

Note; The actual question says the Risk-free rate is 4.25%.

A company needs to locate three departments X, Y, and Z in the three areas I, II, and III of a new facility. They want to minimize interdepartmental transportation costs, which are expected to be $.50 per load meter moved. An analyst has prepared the following flow and distance matrices:
Distances meters Flows Loads per week
From / To I II III From / To X Y Z
I - 10 20 X - 0 80
II - - 10 Y 30 - 150
III - Z 100 130 -
If the company were to locate departments X, Y, and Z in areas 1, 2, and 3, respectively, what would be the total distance (in meters) loads would be moved each week?
A. 3,100
B. 3,600
C. 6,200
D. 7,200
E. 8,200

Answers

Answer: A. 3,100

the total distance (in meters) loads that would be moved each week is  3,100

Explanation:

First we arrange the workflow of the departments in descending order while the distance will be in ascending order.

TRIPS                                  DISTANCE(metres)

1 -11                                       10

11 - 111                                   10

1 - 111                                     20

DEPARTMENTAL PAIR       WORKFLOW

Y-Z                                         150

Z-Y                                         130  

Z-X                                         100

X-Z                                         80

Y-X                                         30  

Given that question provided to allocate departments X, Y, and Z in areas 1, 2, and 3 respectively.

So, having that in mind, allocate the distance for each suitable departmental pair;

DEPARTMENTAL PAIR     WORKFLOW     DISTANCE    TOTAL DISTANCE    

                                                                                               (meter loads)

Y-Z                                         150                        10                      1500

Z-Y                                         130                         -

Z-X                                         100                        10                      1000

X-Z                                         80                           -

Y-X                                         30                         20                       600

                                                                                                       3100

Therefore the total distance (in meters) loads that would be moved each week is  3,100

The Green Balloon just paid its first annual dividend of $0.49 a share. The firm plans to increase the dividend by 3.7 percent per year indefinitely. What is the firm's cost of equity if the current stock price is $17.2 a share

Answers

Answer:

3.80%

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of equity is shown below:

Cost of equity is

= Annual dividend paid × (1 + growth rate) ÷ Stock price + Growth rate

where,

Annual dividend paid is $0.49

Growth rate is 3.7%

And, the stock price is $17.2

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the cost of equity is

= $0.49 × (1 + 0.037) ÷ $17.20 + 0.037

= 0.00105 + 0.037

= 3.80%

Tri-coat Paints has a current market value of $50 per share with earnings of $5.97. What is the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) if the required return is 12%?

Answers

Answer: $0.25

Explanation:

Fron the question, we are informed that Tri-coat Paints has a current market value of $50 per share with earnings of $5.97. We are further told that the required return is 12%.

The present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) will be:

= $50 - ($5.97/12%)

= $50 - ($5.97/0.12)

= $50 - $49.75

= $0.25

Therefore, the present value of its growth opportunities (PVGO) if the required return is 12% is $0.25.

Troy Engines, Ltd., manufactures a variety of engines for use in heavy equipment. The company has always produced all of the necessary parts for its engines, including all of the carburetors. An outside supplier has offered to sell one type of carburetor to Troy Engines, Ltd., for a cost of $35 per unit. To evaluate this offer, Troy Engines, Ltd., has gathered the following information relating to its own cost of producing the carburetor internally: Per Unit 15,000 Units Per Year Direct materials $ 14 $ 210,000 Direct labor 10 150,000 Variable manufacturing overhead 3 45,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable 6 * 90,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated 9 135,000 Total cost $ 42 $ 630,000 *One-third supervisory salaries; two-thirds depreciation of special equipment (no resale value).
Required:
1. Assuming the company has no alternative use for the facilities that are now being used to produce the carburetors, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying 15,000 carburetors from the outside supplier?
2. Should the outside supplier’s offer be accepted?
3. Suppose that if the carburetors were purchased, Troy Engines, Ltd., could use the freed capacity to launch a new product. The segment margin of the new product would be $150,000 per year. Given this new assumption, what would be financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying 15,000 carburetors from the outside supplier?
4. Given the new assumption in requirement 3, should the outside supplier’s offer be accepted?

Answers

Answer:

1. Assuming the company has no alternative use for the facilities that are now being used to produce the carburetors, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying 15,000 carburetors from the outside supplier?

financial disadvantage = $525,000 - $435,000 = $90,000

2. Should the outside supplier’s offer be accepted?

No, it shouldn't be accepted

3. Suppose that if the carburetors were purchased, Troy Engines, Ltd., could use the freed capacity to launch a new product. The segment margin of the new product would be $150,000 per year. Given this new assumption, what would be financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying 15,000 carburetors from the outside supplier?

financial advantage = -$90,000 + $150,000 = $60,000

4. Given the new assumption in requirement 3, should the outside supplier’s offer be accepted?

Yes, it should be accepted

Explanation:

outside vendor offer: cost per unit $35 x 15,000 = $525,000

production costs:

direct materials $14 x 15,000 = $210,000

Direct labor $10 x 15,000 = $150,000

Variable manufacturing overhead $3 x 15,000 = $45,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable $6 x 15,000 = $90,000 ($60,000 are non-avoidable)

Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated $9 x 15,000 = $135,000 (all are non-avoidable)

Total cost $42 x 15,000 = $630,000

avoidable production costs = $435,000

The requirements are detailed as follows:

1.                                                                      Make           Buy        Difference

Direct materials                                        $ 210,000  

Direct labor                                                  150,000

Variable manufacturing overhead              45,000

Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable 60,000

Total cost                                                $465,000  $525,000  $60,000

Thus, the financial disadvantage of buying 15,000 carburetors from the outside supplier is $60,000.

2. The outside supplier's offer should not be accepted as it costs more.

3. Based on the new assumption of obtaining segment margin of $150,000 from alternative use of capacity, the financial advantage of buying 15,000 carburetors from the outside supplier is $90,000.

4. Based on the new assumption, the outside supplier's offer should be accepted.

Data and Calculations:

Outside supplier's price per unit = $35

                                                                Per Unit   15,000 Units Per Year

Direct materials                                        $ 14               $ 210,000

Assume that both labor and capital exhibit diminishing returns. Suppose you can hire an additional unit of labor for $10, and she can product 50 units. You could also buy an additional machine at the cost of $200, and that machine would allow you to produce 1000 units.
If your main concern is minimizing average cost, what should you do?
a) Buy the machine, because it will allow you to produce more
b) Nothing, because you are already minimizing cost
c) There is not enough information to make a legitimate response
d) Hire more labor, because it is cheaper

Answers

Answer:

b) Nothing, because you are already minimizing cost

Explanation:

cost of producing one additional unit by hiring more workers = $10 / 50 units = $0.20 per unit

cost of producing one additional unit by buying the machine = $200 / 1,000 units = $0.20 per unit

Since labor exhibits a diminishing return, the next unit of labor will produce less than 50 units. This means that if you want to increase production, you should buy the machine.

Using the same logic, the previous units of labor were able to produce more than 50 units, which means that the average total cost was lower using labor than the machine. So if the company's concern is to minimize costs, then they are already doing so.

Suppose the government passes a law that reduces unemployment benefits in a way that causes unemployed workers to seek out new jobs more quickly. The policy will cause the natural rate of unemployment to

Answers

Options:

a. Fall

b. Shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the right

Answer:

b. Shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the right

Explanation:

Indeed, in the long run the aggregate supply or the number of available unemployed workers in the economy would increase, due to an increase in the number of those looking for jobs, since they stand to get reduced unemployment benefits.

This change would be clearly visible if plotted on a labor supply graph. In a sense, the unemployed no longer want to remain unemployed because of reduced unemployment benefits.

Rockville, Inc. which uses a job costing system, began business on January 1, 20X3 and applies to manufacture overhead on the basis of direct labor cost.

During 2018, Skechers USA had Sales of $1,846.4, Gross profit of $818.8 million and Selling, General and Administration expenses of $730.7 million. What was Skechers' Cost of sales for 2018

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $1,027.6 million

Explanation:

Gross profit = Sales - Cost of Sales(cost of goods sold)

Gross profit = $818.8 million

Sales of $1,846.4 million.

To find Cost of Sales, we rearrange the formula to now be:

Sales - Gross profit

$1,846.4 million - $818.8 million

=$1,027.6 million

Therefore, Skechers' Cost of sales for 2018 is $1,027.6 million

g The Federal Reserve can lower short-run output by Group of answer choices lowering the real interest rate. increasing the money supply. decreasing the money supply. lowering the nominal interest rate. None of these answers is correct

Answers

Answer: Decreasing the money supply

Explanation:

When the Fed reduces money supply, it will remove the amount of excess money that people have to spend in the economy. This will lead to prices reducing because people no longer have a lot of money to spend on products therefore they will demand less goods. This will lead to the Aggregate demand curve shifting to the left. The new intersection with the Aggregate Supply curve will be at a point where prices will be lower and less quantity will be demanded which will signify a drop in the short-run output of the economy.

Starbucks (Croatia). Starbucks opened its first store in Zagreb, Croatia, in October 2010. In Zagreb, the price of a tall vanilla latte is 25.70 Croatian kunas (kn or HRK). In New York City, the price of a tall vanilla latte is $2.65. The exchange rate between Croatian kunas and U.S. dollars is kn5.6288.
(a) According to purchasing power parity, is the Croatian kuna overvalued or undervalued?
(b) By what percent is the kuna overvalued or undervalued?

Answers

Answer:

a. Overvalued

b.  72.3% overvalued

Explanation:

a. Purchasing power parity when held, shows that prices of a specific good is the same across the world.

Price in New York  = $2.65

Price in Zagreb = kn25.70

$1 = 25.70/2.65

$1 = kn9.6981

According to PPP, Croatian Kuna is Overvalued as the exchange rate per the Vanilla Latte is higher than the official exchange rate.

b. =  [tex]\frac{9.6981 - 5.6288}{5.6288.}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4.0693}{5.6288}[/tex]

= 72.3% overvalued

Ecker Company reports $1,925,000 of net income for 2017 and declares $269,500 of cash dividends on its preferred stock for 2017. At the end of 2017, the company had 300,000 weighted-average shares of common stock.
1. What amount of net income is available to common stockholders for 2017?
2. What is the company's basic EPS for 2017?

Answers

Answer:

(A) $1,655,500

(B) $5.52 per share

Explanation:

Ecker company announced a net income of $1,925,000

They also declare a cash dividend of $269,500

The company has 300,000 weighted average shares of common stock

(A) The amount of net income available to common stockhloders for 2017 can be calculated as follows

Net income available to common stockhloders= Net income- Preferred Cash dividend

= $1,925,000-$269,500

= $1,655,500

(B) The common basic EPS for 2017 can be calculated as follows

Common basic EPS= Net income available to stockholders/weighted average outstanding shares

= $1,655,500/300,000

= $5.52 per share

Bonita Industries applies overhead to production at a predetermined rate of 80% based on direct labor cost. Job No. 130, the only job still in process at the end of August, has been charged with manufacturing overhead of $5100. What was the amount of direct materials charged to Job 130 assuming the balance in Work in Process inventory is 45000?

Answers

Answer:

Direct Materials                   $ 33525

Explanation:

Bonita Industries

Job No. 130,

Manufacturing overhead  $5100.

Direct Labor =  $ 6375

5100                    80

x                        100

Using cross product  direct labor = 5100 *100/80= 6375.

We have

Work in Process inventory  $ 45000

Less

Manufacturing overhead  $5100.

Direct Labor                        $ 6375        

Direct Materials                   $ 33525

The Work in Process is debited with Direct Materials, Direct Labor and Manufacturing Overheads.

As we know the Direct Labor and Manufacturing Overheads we can find out the Direct Materials by subtracting the Direct Labor and Manufacturing Overheads from the Work In Process Inventory balance.

Answers

Answer:

Buhao Construction

a) Debt-to-Equity Ratio if it borrows $220,000

= Debit/Equity

= $220,000/$1,700,000

= 12.94%

b. EPS = $195,800/17,000

= $11.52

c. EPS = $173,800/17,000

= $10.22

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Outstanding Equity = 17,000 shares x $100 = $1,700,000

Interest rate = 11%

It is assumed that Buhao Construction pays no taxes

EBIT = $130,000

Debit = $220,000

Interest Expense = $24,200

Net Income = $195,800 ($220,000 - 24,200)

Debit = $420,000

Interest Expense = $46,200

Net Income = $173,800 ($220,000 - 46,200)

b) Debt-to-Equity Ratio of Buhao Construction is the relationship in ratio terms between debts and equity of the company.  It shows the percentage of debts over the stockholders' equity.

c) EPS or Earnings per share shows the net income of Buhao Construction that can be attributed to each share.  Stockholders use this measure to learn the profits that are generated for each share by the company during the period.  A high EPS indicates that the business is profitable for stockholders.

Skysong, Inc. reports the following for the month of June. Units Unit Cost Total Cost June 1 Inventory 250 $5 $ 1,250 12 Purchase 500 9 4,500 23 Purchase 375 11 4,125 30 Inventory 125 Calculate Weighted Average Unit Cost

Answers

Answer:

Weighted average unit cost =  $8.78

Explanation:

The weighted average method of inventory determines the average cost per unit of inventory each time a new batch is received. or every new batch received the average cost per unit is re-computed by dividing the total value of stock by the outstanding number of units.

The explanation is completed using calculation below:

Total value of stock = (250× $5)   +  (500×$9) + (375 × 11)  = $9,875

Total units of stock = 250 + 500 + 375 = 1,125  units

Weighted average unit cost = Total value of stock / total units of stock

                                        =  $9875 / 1125 units = $8.78

Weighted average unit cost =  $8.78

The supply of jeans is unchangedsupply of jeans is unchanged and the quantity of jeans supplied decreases.and the quantity of jeans supplied decreases.

Answers

Answer:

D. The supply of jeans is unchanged and the quantity of jeans supplied increases

Explanation:

According to the law of supply if the price of the good increased than the quantity supplied is also increased and vice versa i.e it shows the direct relationship between the quantity supplied and the price

So since the price of the jeans is rises so the quantity supplied is also raised without impact the supply of jeans

Hence, the correct option is D.

Mary, a merchant, was in the business of selling flowers to local florists. Melissa was the owner of Little Flower, Inc. and she regularly purchased her flowers from Mary. One day, Melissa called Mary and ordered 20 dozen roses, 15 dozen carnations, 10 dozen daisies, baby breaths, 6 dozen tulips, and some plants. Everything totaled $1,200, and was to be delivered in 14 days. After the two ended their call, Mary sent Melissa an e-mail detailing the order and her acceptance. Melissa never responded to the e-mail. Eleven days later, Mary delivered the merchandise to Melissa, but she refused shipment. Mary sued Melissa for breach of contract. What is the likely result?

Answers

Answer:

Generally UCC rules establish that contracts involving the sale of goods worth more than $500 must be in writing and signed. But this rule doesn't apply to merchants that are involved in routine buy/sell activities. In this case, both Mary and Melissa are considered merchants and the phone call and the email are enough proof against Melissa for breach of contract. In my opinion, Mary would win the lawsuit.

A bakery works out a demand function for its chocolate chip cookies and finds it to be q = D(x)= 760-13x​, where q is the quantity of cookies sold when the price per​ cookie, in​ cents, is x.

Required:
a. Find the elasticity.
b. At what price is the elasticity of demand equal to 1?
c. At what prices is the elasticity of demand elastic?
d. At what prices is the elasticity of demand inelastic?

Answers

Answer:

Please refer to the below for explanation.

Explanation:

From the above, the demand function is given as ;

D(x)=760-13x

a) Find the elasticity

It means finding the derivative of the function

D'(X)=-13, hence elasticity is expressed as

xD'(x) / D'(x)

= x(-13) / 760 - 13x

= 13x / 760 - 13x

The elasticity expression is thus ; E(x)= 13x / 760 - 13x

b) At what price is the elasticity demand equal to 1.

The above means that E(X) = 1

Putting 1 for E(X) in the elasticity equation,

E(x) = 13x / 760 - 13x

1 = 13x / 760 - 13x

When you cross multiply, you'll have

760 - 13x = 13x

Collecting like terms, you'll have

760 = 13x + 13x

760 = 26x

Dividing both sides by 26, you'll have

x = 760 /26

x = 29.23

It means that the elasticity at the price of demand = 1 is 29.23

c) At what price is the elasticity of demand elastic.

The above means that E(X) > 1

Thus;

13x / 760 - 13x > 1

When you cross multiply, you'll have

13x > 760 - 13x

Collecting like terms, you'll have

13x + 13x > 760

26x > 760

Dividing both sides by 26, you'll have

x > 760/26

x > 29.23

It means that the elasticity of demand is elastic at x > 29.23

d) At what price is the elasticity of demand inelastic

The above means that E(X) < 1

Hence;

13x / 760 - 13x < 1

When you cross multiply, you'll have

13x < 760 - 13x

Collecting like terms, you'll have

13x + 13x < 76

26x < 760

Dividing both sides by 26, you'll have

x < 760/26

x < 29.23

It means that the elasticity of demand is inelastic at x < 29.23
