A small fast-food restaurant is automating its burger production. The owner needs to decide whether to rent a machine that can produce up to 2,000 hamburgers per week at a marginal cost of $1 per burger (excluding the cost of ingredients) or another machine that can also make up to 2,000 burgers per week but at a marginal cost of $0.50 per burger (again, excluding the cost of ingredients). The weekly lease for the machine with the higher marginal cost is $1,800. The weekly lease for the machine with the lower marginal cost is $2,170. The restaurant can sell burgers for $10 per burger, and the cost of ingredients for each burger is $2.
Suppose the restaurant leases the machine with the higher marginal cost for the first week and sells 2,000 burgers that week. The restaurant owner earned profits of $_____in the first week.
Suppose now the restaurant leases the machine with the lower marginal cost for the second week and again sells 2,000 burgers that week. The restaurant owner earned profits of $_____in the second week.

Answer 1

Answer:

$11,700 and $12,240

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Total Revenue = No. of Sale Units × Selling Price Per Unit

= 2,000 × $10

= $20,000

Profit = Total Revenue - Total Cost

 Here

Total cost = Fixed cost + variable cost

Variable Cost = No. of Sale Units × (Marginal Cost + Ingredients cost for Each Burger)

= 2,000 × ($1 + $2)

= $6,000

So,

Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Total Variable Cost

= $2,300 + $6,000

= $8,300

And, the total revenue is $20,000

Thus, the profit earned is

= $20,000 - $8,300

= $11,700

For the other case

Profit = Total Revenue - Total Cost

Here,

Total cost = Fixed cost + variable cost

Variable Cost = No. of Sale Units × (Marginal Cost + Ingredients cost for Each Burger)

= 2,000 × ($0.50 + $2)

= $5,000

So,  

Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Total Variable Cost

= $2,760 + $5,000

= $7,760

And, the total revenue is $20,000

Therefore, the earned profit is

= $20,000 - $7,760

= $12,240

Kara files her income tax return 64 days after the due date of the return without obtaining an extension from the IRS. Along with the return, she remits a check for $15,400, which is the balance of the tax she owes. Note: Assume 30 days in a month.

Required:
Disregarding the interest element, enter Kara's penalty amount for each, failure to file and failure to pay.
Failure to pay________$
Failure to file________$

Answers

Answer:

failure to file :$2079

failure to pay:$231

Explanation:

given data

remits a check = $15,400

days in a month = 30

return = 64 days

solution

computation of Kara's penalty amount for failure to pay

failure to pay will be

failure to pay  = 0.5% of tax owed × number of months  .......................1

failure to pay = 0.5% × $15400 × 3

failure to pay  = $231

and

Computation of Kara's penalty amount for failure to file

failure to file will be

failure to file = (5% of tax owed × number of months or part thereof) - failure to pay penalty          .......................2  

failure to file = (5% × $15400 × 3) - $231

failure to file = $2310 - $231

failure to file = $2079

Explanation:

A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (creditor or investor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time.

Generally, the bond issuer is expected to return the principal at maturity with an agreed upon interest to the bondholder, which is payable at fixed intervals.

The par value of a bond is its face value and it comprises of its total dollar amount as well as its maturity value. Also, the par value of a bond gives the basis on which periodic interest is paid. Thus, a bond is issued at par value when the market rate of interest is the same as the contract rate of interest.

In the securities market, the different types of bond includes;

A. Discount on Bonds Payable: occurs when the contract rate is less than the market rate.

B. Carrying Value of Bonds: equals par value minus any unamortized discount or plus any unamortized premium.

C. Bearer bonds: is unregistered; interest is paid to whoever possesses them.

D. Sinking Fund Bonds: maintains a separate asset account from which bondholders are paid at maturity.

E. Secured bonds: pledges specific assets of the issuer as collateral.

F. Convertible bond: can be exchanged for shares of the issuer's stock.

G. Callable Bonds: issuer may retire it at a stated dollar amount before maturity.

H. Unsecured Bonds: Backed by the issuer's general credit standing.

Required information Skip to question [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Victory Company uses weighted-average process costing to account for its production costs. Conversion cost is added evenly throughout the process. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the first process. During November, the first process transferred 780,000 units of product to the second process. Additional information for the first process follows. At the end of November, work in process inventory consists of 185,000 units that are 50% complete with respect to conversion. Beginning work in process inventory had $188,175 of direct materials and $196,313 of conversion cost. The direct material cost added in November is $1,259,325, and the conversion cost added is $3,729,937. Beginning work in process consisted of 76,000 units that were 100% complete with respect to direct materials and 80% complete with respect to conversion. Of the units completed, 76,000 were from beginning work in process and 704,000 units were started and completed during the period. Required: For the first process: 1. Determine the equivalent units of production with respect to direct materials and conversion.

Answers

Answer:  

Direct materials = 965,000 units Conversion = 872,500 units

Explanation:

a. Direct materials  

Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process so ending EUP is 100% in respect to EUP.

EUP Direct materials = Finished goods + Closing EUP

= 780,000 + 185,000  

= 965,000 units

 

b. Conversion  

= Finished goods + Closing EUP  

= 780,000 + (0.50 * 185,000)  

= 780,000 + 92,500  

= 872,500 units

Last year Kruse Corp had $410,000 of assets (which is equal to its total invested capital), $403,000 of sales, $28,250 of net income, and a debt-to-total-capital ratio of 39%. The new CFO believes the firm has excessive fixed assets and inventory that could be sold, enabling it to reduce its total assets and total invested capital to $252,500. The firm finances using only debt and common equity. Sales, costs, and net income would not be affected, and the firm would maintain the same capital structure (but with less total debt). By how much would the reduction in assets improve the ROE? Do not round your intermediate calculations. Question 2 options: 7.05% 6.69% 6.41% 7.26% 7.82%

Answers

Answer:

a. 7.05%

Explanation:

ROE before reduction in assets:

Total assets = $410,000

Debt to total capital ratio = 39%

Equity to total capital ratio = 1 - 39% = 61%

Equity = 410000 * 61% = $250,100

Net Income = $28,250

ROE = Net Income / Equity = 28250 / 250100 = 11.2955%

After reduction in assets:

Total assets = $252,500

Net Income is not affected and is same at = $28,250

Capital structure is same.

New Equity = 252500 * 61% = $154,025

New ROE = 28250 / 154025 = 18.3412%

Improvement in ROE = 18.3412% - 11.2955%

Improvement in ROE = 7.05%

[tex]E = z_\frac{\alpha}{2} *\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } \\\\E=1.96*\frac{200}{\sqrt{100} } =39.2\\[/tex]

The confidence interval = (μ ± E) = (1500 ± 39.2) = (1500 - 39.2, 1500 + 39.2) = (1460.8, 1539.2)

The confidence interval is between $1460.8 and $1539.2.

b) Given that mean (μ) = $1500, standard deviation for 100 samples =  σ /√n = $200,

confidence (C) = 95% = 0.95

[tex]E = z_\frac{\alpha}{2} *\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } \\\\E=1.96*200=392\\[/tex]

The confidence interval = (μ ± E) = (1500 ± 392) = (1500 - 392, 1500 + 392) = (1108, 1892)

The confidence interval is between $1108 and $1892.

Jim recently joined the Austin Barter Club, an organization that facilitates the exchange of services between its members. This year Jim provided lawn-mowing services to other club members. Jim received the following from the barter club. Determine the amount, if any, Jim should include in his gross income in each of the following situations: (Leave no answers blank. Enter zero if applicable.)

a. Jim received $275 of car repair services from another member of the club.
b. Jim received a S150 credit that gave him the option of receiving a season pass at a local ski resort from another member of the club. However, he forgot to request the pass by the end of the ski season and his credit expired.
c. Jim received a S450 credit that can only be applied for goods or services from club members next year.

Answers

Solution :

a). In the context, Jim received $ 275 for the car repairing services form some member from the club. In this exchange of the services, an income is been received in amount of a value of the services received ( the gross income includes receipt of the services and also the money and goods). Therefore, Jim is being taxed on an amount of $275 for the car repair services.

b). The issue in this case is whether a "credit" represents the valuable right. As the right can be redeemed for the that is property worth of $150, then under the constructive receipt,  Jim must recognize an income of $150.

c). Jim received an credit of $450 to be applied for the next year. If the credit can be redeemed or used for any future services, the taxpayer then can argue that the realization has not yet occurred. But, it has be included in Jim's gross income for the next year when his credit amount becomes the valuable right.

Leasing companies purchase capital equipment, like airplanes or trucks, and then lease the equipment to the firms that actually use them. On its face, it is hard to see why this is a wealth-creating transaction since the end users could borrow money and purchase their own equipment. The answer is that banks, due to the way they are regulated, are more willing to lend to companies with less debt. By leasing equipment, a company moves debt off its balance sheet, which makes it easier to borrow more heavily. The enhanced borrowing ability of low-debt companies makes leasing more valuable than borrowing and buying. In the fall of 2015, one such truck leasing company was having trouble making money. The company purchased over-the-road trucks for $92,000 and then leased them to various transport companies, ranging from small owner-operators to large publicly owned firms with fleets of over hundred trucks. Salespeople who negotiated the leases were paid a commission of $2,000 for every truck they leased.
1. Why is the leasing company losing money? Explain.
2. How do we fix this situation and turn the company to a profitable one?

Answers

Explanation:

the reason the leasing company is losing money is because the people in sales are paid their commission for every equipment not regarding the amount of profit that was made. This brought about leasing of so many equipments as they could without thinking if it would have a positive or negative impact on the company. they could lease as many equipments as they could because they were charging low rates to leasing companies.

2. How do we fix this situation and turn the company to a profitable one

The company can fix this by figuring out a much better way to pay incentives to the people in sales. Incentives should be paid out of the profits of the business in such a way that if the lease rate is reduced the performance of those in sales is reduced also.

Ambiguity can arise as to whether receivables have been sold or instead are being used as collateral for a loan whenever certain obligations, duties, or rights regarding the transferred receivables are retained by the transferor. In distinguishing between sales and collateralized borrowings using receivables, the critical issue:________

a. is whether the transferor surrenders control over the receivables.
b. comes down to how clearly the rights, etc. being retained are specified in the transfer agreement.
c. is whether any gain or loss related to the transfer is recognized in earnings.
d. is whether the terms regarding the transfer were initiated by the transferor or transferee.

Answers

What is grammar?

The grammar of a natural language is its set of structural constraints on speakers' or writers' composition of clauses, phrases, and words. The term can also refer to the study of such constraints, a field that includes domains such as phonology, morphology, and syntax, often complemented by phonetics, semantics, and pragmatics. There are currently two different approaches to the study of grammar: traditional grammar and theoretical grammar.

Fluent speakers of a language variety or lect have effectively internalized these constraints, the vast majority of which at least in the case of one's native languages are acquired not by conscious study or instruction but by hearing other speakers. Much of this internalization occurs during early childhood; learning a language later in life usually involves more explicit instruction.

The term grammar can also describe the linguistic behaviour of groups of speakers and writers rather than individuals.

Top hedge fund manager Sally Buffit believes that a stock with the same market risk as the S&P 500 will sell at year-end at a price of $49. The stock will pay a dividend at year-end of $3.00. Assume that risk-free Treasury securities currently offer an interest rate of 2.1%. Average rates of return on Treasury bills, government bonds, and common stocks, 1900–2017 (figures in percent per year) are as follows. Portfolio Average Annual Rate of Return (%) Average Premium (Extra return versus Treasury bills) (%) Treasury bills 3.8 Treasury bonds 5.3 1.5 Common stocks 11.5 7.7

Answers

Answer:

a. 9.80%

b. $47.36

Explanation:

a. Discount rate

Discount rate on stock = Risk free rate + Average risk premium on stock

= 2.1% + 7.7%

= 9.80%

b. The price today will be the present value of the stock given the future price and the expected dividends.

= (Future price + dividends) / ( 1 + rate) ^ No. of periods

= (49 + 3) / (1 + 9.8%)

= 52 / 1.098

A colleague from the plant in Germany has arrived at the Chicago plant to share insights on a recent product line changeover implemented in Germany. This changeover has saved thousands of euros at the German facility, but Jim does not think it will work in the United States. Jim feels that there is a completely different attitude towards work and innovation in the U.S., and in fact, thinks the German facility is technologically behind his plant. Additionally, the colleague often mispronounces words when he speaks English, and doesn't dress appropriately for the U.S. office. He showed up to work on the plant floor in a formal suit and tie, with dress shoes that had a slippery sole. However, the colleague is a guest, and it is important that Jim pretends to be interested.

The next three questions are based on the following information: Demand for an item is 1000 units per year. A processing fee of $10 will be charged for each order placed. The purchasing cost of the item is $20. The annual cost to carry an item in inventory is 20% of the item costs. What is the unit inventory holding cost

Answers

Answer:

$4.00

Explanation:

The cost of purchasing 1000 units per year is computed thus:

the annual cost of purchase=annual demand*cost per unit

annual demand=1000

cost per unit=$20

the annual cost of purchase=1,000*$20

the annual cost of purchase=$20,000

The cost of carrying or holding the inventory for one year is 20% of cost of purchase

Annual holding cost=20%*$20,000

Annual holding cost=$4,000

the unit inventory holding cost=annual holding cost/annual demand

the unit inventory holding cost=$4,000/1000

the unit inventory holding cost=$4.00

The bonds in our model have a maturity close to zero; they just pay the current interest rate, i, as a flow over time. We could consider, instead, a discount bond, such as a U.S. Treasury Bill. This type of asset has no explicit interest payments (called coupons) but pays a principal of, say, $1000 at a fixed date in the future. A Bill with one- year maturity pays off one year from the issue date, and similarly for 3-month or 6-month Bills. Let PB be the price of a discount bond with one-year maturity and principal of $1000. a. Is PB greater than or less than $1000.

a. Is P^B greater than or less than $1000?
b. What is the one-year interest rate on these discount bonds?
c. If prises, what happens to the interest rate on these bonds?
d. Suppose that, instead of paying $1000 in one year, the bond pays $1000 in two years. What is the interest rate per year on this two-year discount bond?

Answers

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Part a.

[tex]P^{B}[/tex] will be less than $1000.

Reason: [tex]P^{B}[/tex] + interest = $1000, since interest >0 (Cannot be negative)

Hence,  

[tex]P^{B}[/tex] < $1000

Part b.

Assuming the amount of interest to be i, [tex]P^{B}[/tex] would be $1000 - I

Rate of interest would be:

($1000 - ($1000-i)) / ($1000 - i) = i / ($1000 - i)

Rate of interest = i / ($1000 - i)

Part c.

If [tex]P^{B}[/tex] rises, the interest rate on these bonds would come down. Going back to a. [tex]P^{B}[/tex] = $1000 - i, and if [tex]P^{B}[/tex] rises, it implies that i reduces, which means that rate of interest will be reduced.

Part d.

If $1000 is a payment two years later, it implies that i (refer to b.) is the interest for two years. Assuming annual compounding, let's calculate rate of interest as follows:

Interest for two year (i) = $1000 - [tex]P^{B}[/tex] at the rate of i per year

= [tex]P^{B}[/tex] X i / 100 + ([tex]P^{B}[/tex] X (1+i/100))X i/100

We can solve for i to get annual rate of interest.

The required return on this stock is 14 percent and the last dividend paid was $2.40 a share. What is one share of this stock worth today?

Answers

Answer:

$18.35

Explanation:

P0 = D1/(1+r)^1 + D2/(1+r)^2 + D3/(1+r)^3 + P3/(1+r)^3

D1 = $2.40 * 0.90 = $2.16

D2 = $2.16 * 0.90 = $1.944

D3 = $1.944 * 0.90 = $1.7496

P3 = D3*(1+g)/(r-g) = $1.7496*(1+0.05)/(0.14-0.05) = $20.412

P0 = D1/(1+r)^1 + D2/(1+r)^2 + D3/(1+r)^3 + P3/(1+r)^3

P0 = [$2.16/(1+0.14) + $1.944(1+0.14)^2 + $1.7496/(1+0.14)^3 + $20.412/(1+0.14)^3]

P0 = $18.35

Therefore, the worth of the stock today is $18.35.
