Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance = $1,000

Direct labor time variance =  $224

Explanation:

Calculation of the direct materials quantity

Direct material quantity variance = Actual quantity at standard price - Standard Quantity at standard price

Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - (($36,000/24,000) * 21,600

Direct material quantity variance = $$33,400 - ($1.5 * $21,600)

Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - $32,400

Direct material quantity variance = $1,000

Calculation of direct labor time variances

Direct labor time variance = Actual labor time at standard cost - Standard labor time at standard cost

Direct labor time variance = $8,000- (($8,640/24,000) * $21,600

Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - (0.36) * $21,600

Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - $7,776

Direct labor time variance =  $224

Customer-Level Planning Circle K operates a number of convenience stores worldwide. Assume that an analysis of operating costs, customer sales, and customer patronage reveals the following:Fixed costs per store ............................................$80,000.00/year
Variable cost ratio...............................................0.80
Average sale per customer visit....................................$15.00
Average customer visits per week..................................1.75
Customers as portion of city population .............................0.04
Determine the city population required for a single Circle K to earn an annual profit of $40,000

Answers

Answer:

11,000 people

Explanation:

fixed costs per store $80,000

variable cost ratio 0.80

average sale per customer $15

average customer sales per week 1.75

customers as portion of population 4%

each customer shops 1.75 x 52 = 91 times per year

contribution margin per visit = $15 - ($15 x 0.8) = $3

contribution margin per client per year = $3 x 91 = $273

in order to make $40,000 in profits, you need at least:

($80,000 + $40,000) / $273 = 439.56 ≈ 440 customers

to determine the city's total population = 440 / 0.04 = 11,000

A bond has a $1,000 par value, 20 years to maturity, and pays a coupon of 5.5% per year, annually. The bond is callable in ten years at $1,075. If the bond’s yield to maturity is 5.89% per year, what is its yield to call? Question 13 options: A) 5.87% B) 6.57% C) 6.11% D) 6.43% E) 6.68%

Answers

Answer:

6.68% , option E is correct

Explanation:

The price of the bond can be computed using the below formula for bond price calculation:

bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n)/r

face value is $1000

r is the yield to maturity which is 5.89%

coupon=face value*coupon rate=1000*5.5%=55

n is the number of coupons the bond would pay which is 11 coupons over 20 years

bond price=1000/(1+5.89%)^20+55*(1-(1+5.89%)^-20)/5.89%

bond price=$ 954.87  

The yield on the call can be determined using excel rate function as further explained below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupons the bond would pay before being called in ten years' time i.e 10 coupons

pmt is the is the amount of  annual coupon=$1000*5.5%=$55

pv is the current price of $954.87  

fv is the call price which is $1,075

=rate(10,55,-954.87,1075)=6.68%

4. 31.85 %

5. $368,881.09

Explanation:

Straight Line Method charges a fixed amount of depreciation expense over the life of an asset.

Depreciation Expense = (Cost - Residual Value) / Estimated Useful Life

                                     = ($487,000 -  $23,000) / 4

                                     = $116,000

Net Income = Sales - Expenses

Sales                                                          $1,910,000

Less Expenses :

Direct materials                                         ($495,000)

Direct labor                                                ($674,000)

Overhead ( $335,000 + $116,000)           ($451,000)

Selling and administrative expenses       ($159,000)

Operating Income before tax                     $131,000

Income tax at 38%                                       ($49,780)

Net Income                                                   $81,220

Net Cash Flow Calculation :

Operating Income before tax                     $131,000

Add Depreciation Expense                        $116,000

Net Cash flow                                             $247,000

Payback period

Payback period = Year 1 + Year 2

        $487,000  =  $247,000 + $240,000 /   $247,000 × 12

                          =  1 year, 11 months

Therefore, the payback period is 1 year and 11 months .

Accounting Rate of Return = Average Profits / Average Investment  × 100

Where, Average Profits = Sum of Profits ÷ Number of Years

                                       = ($81,220 × 4) ÷ 4

                                       = $81,220

and Average Investment = (Initial Investment + Scrape Value) ÷ 2

                                         = ($487,000 + $23,000) ÷ 2

                                         = $255,000

Therefore, Accounting Rate of Return = $81,220 / $255,000 × 100

                                                               = 31.85 %

Rita Gonzales won the $53 million lottery. She is to receive $2.2 million a year for the next 20 years plus an additional lump sum payment of $9 million after 20 years. The discount rate is 12 percent. What is the current value of her winnings

Answers

Answer:

PV= $17,365,776.86

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cf= 2,200,000

Number of years= 20

Discount rate= 12%

Additional lump sum= 9,000,000

First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual cash flow

FV= {2,200,000*[(1.12^20) - 1]} / 0.12 + 9,000,000

FV= $167,515,373.4

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 167,515,373.4/1.12^20

PV= $17,365,776.86

Answers

Answer:

Sales unit to achieve target profit =6,550 units

Explanation:

Break-even point is the level of activity that achieves no profit or loss. At this level profit is zero because the the total revenue is equal to total cost.

The break-even point is calculated as  

Break -even in units = total general fixed cost/(selling price - variable cost)

ley represent tah variable cost per unit with letter "y"

5,000 = 50,000 / (25 - y)

cross multiply

5000× (25 - y) = 50,000

125000  - 5000 y = 50,000

collect like terms

125,000 - 50,000 = 5000 y

75000  = 5,000y

divide both sides by 5,000

y = 75,000/5000 = 15

Variable cost per unit = 15

Sales units to achieve target profit = Fixed cost + target profit/(selling price - variable cost per unit)

Sales unit to achieve target profit

= (50,000 + 15,500)/(25-15)

= 6,550

Sales unit to achieve target profit =6,550 units

D. Use the contribution margin ratio to project operating income if monthly sales revenue totals $515,000.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $80

Unitary variable cost= $40

Fixed costs= $240,000

First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin and the contribution margin ratio:

Contribution margin= 80 - 40= $40

Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin/selling price

Contribution margin ratio= 40/80= 0.5

Now, we can calculate the operating income for 10,000 units:

Total contribution margin= 40*10,000= 400,000

Fixed costs= (240,000)

Net operating income= 160,000

Finally, the operating income for $515,000:

Net operating income= (contribution margin ratio*sales) - fixed costs

Net operating income= 515,000*0.5 - 240,000

Net operating income= 17,500

For a mandatory arbitration to be enforceable, there must be a provision that the employee pay the cost of the arbitrator's service and also a provision that the employer has the right to choose any arbitrator.

You are thinking of building a new machine that will sve you 2,000 in the first year the machine will then begin to wear out so that the savings decline at a rate of 4% per year forever. What is the present value of the savings if the interest rate is 5% per year? (Hint: this is a growing perpetuity.)

Answers

Answer:

The present value of the savings is $22222.22

Explanation:

A perpetuity is an indefinite series of equal payments made after equal intervals of time and for an unlimited period. A growing perpetuity is a kind of perpetuity whose period payments are not equal and they grow(or decline) at a constant rate each period for an indefinite period of time.

The formula for the present value of a growing perpetuity is attached.

The present value of the savings can be calculated as follows,

Present value = 2000 / (0.05 - (-0.04)

Present value = 2000 / (0.05 + 0.04)

Present value = 2000 / 0.09

Present value = $22222.22

Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000

cash flow in year 1 = 5,000

cash flow i year 2 - 4,000

cash flow in year 3 = 3,000

IRR = 10.65%

For project B,

Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000

cash flow in year 1 = 4,000

cash flow i year 2 - 3,000

cash flow in year 3 = 10,000

IRR = 26.37%

Project B would be ranked higher because it has a higher IRR

Solution

According to variable costing, the unit cost based was

= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.20

= $28.6

According to absorption costing,

Total Manufacturing costs= Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead

= $8.20 + $11.20 + ($386,400/42,000 units) + $9.20

= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.2 + $9.2

Required:
a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?
b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?

Answers

Answer:

a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?

They emphasize cost plus pricing because the investors are seeking a desired rate of return on their investment and they do it by adding the desired profit margin to their costs.

b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?

$75.50 in order for them to generate the required ROI. Since the resort has a very good reputation, it can charge a higher price than its competitors.

Explanation:

company's assets = $115,000,000

expected return on investment = 16%

fixed costs = $35,600,000

number of customers = 800,000

variable costs = $8 per customer x 800,000 = $6,400,000

total costs = $42,000,000

total cost per client = $42,000,000 / 800,000 = $52.50

desired profit = $115,000,000 x 16% = $18,400,000

desired profit per client = $18,400,000 / 800,000 = $23

price per ticket = $75.50

For this discussion, you are to pretend that you're on a team project that's running behind schedule. Let's say you and your project team are three months into an eight-month project and you realize that you're already 2.5 weeks behind schedule and 15% over budget. What would you do?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The discussion or focus is on PROJECT MANAGEMENT.

You are on a team project that is running behind schedule. You and your project team are 3 months into an 8-month project.

There is a deficiency in both time management and money management.

For the project to be 3 months old, out of 8 months, then it's already in the execution stage.

Being behind schedule by 2.5 weeks implies that you have spent 2.5 weeks extra, achieving what you ought to achieve without or before the extra time. Discuss with your project team and make them more active in delivering their tasks. Time is crucial. Time is money also.

You're 15% over budget, hence you've spent 15% more than you should. Check the vendors of items and tools used in the project. You might have to change them if their products are too costly. Ensure proper accounting also. Do not disburse funds without the consultation and approval of team members who are finance experts.

In all, not more than 2 days or thereabout should be used in making these adjustments because time and money are equally pertinent!

Moraine, Inc., has an issue of preferred stock outstanding that pays a 3.50 dividend in perpetuity. If this issue currently sells for 85 per share, what is the required return

For a recent year, McDonald's Company-owned restaurants had the following sales and expenses (in millions):

Sales $28,600
Food and packaging $9,710
Payroll 7,200
Occupancy (rent, depreciation, etc.) 6,630
General, selling, and administrative expenses 4,200
$27,740
Income from operations $860

Assume that the variable costs consist of food and packaging, payroll, and 40% of the general, selling, and administrative expenses.

a. What is McDonald's contribution margin? Round to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place)
b. What is McDonald's contribution margin ratio? Round to one decimal place.
c. How much would income from operation increase if the same-store sales increased by $900 million for the coming year, with NO change in the contribution margin ratio or fixed costs? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a million (one decimal place)

Answers

Answer:

a. What is McDonald's contribution margin?

contribution margin = total sales - total variable costs = $28,600 - [$9,710 + $7,200 + (0.4 x $4,200)] = $10,010

b. What is McDonald's contribution margin ratio?

contribution margin ratio = contribution margin / total sales = $10,010 / $28,600 = 0.35 ≈ 0.4

c. How much would income from operation increase if the same-store sales increased by $900 million for the coming year, with NO change in the contribution margin ratio or fixed costs?

increase in total contribution margin = $900 x 0.35 = $315

Income from operations will increase by $315 million

B&B has a new baby powder ready to market. If the firm goes directly to the market with the product, there is only a 60 percent chance of success. However, the firm can conduct customer segment research, which will take a year and cost $1.14 million. By going through research, the company will be able to better target potential customers and will increase the probability of success to 75 percent. If successful, the baby powder will bring a present value profit (at time of initial selling) of $19.1 million. If unsuccessful, the present value payoff is only $6.1 million. The appropriate discount rate is 14 percent.

Required:
Calculate the NPV for the firm if it conducts customer segment research and if it goes to market immediately.

Answers

Answer:

NPV = $13.9m

NPV = $11.05m (if conducts customer segment research)

Explanation:

DATA

Successfull probability = 60%

Unsuccessful probability = 40%

Initial selling = $19.1m

Unsuccessful present value  = $6.1 m

Research cost = $1.14m

Discount rate = 14%

Solution ( NPV If the firm goes to market immediately)

NPV = (Successful probability x initial selling) + (Unsuccessful probability x Unsuccessful present value)

NPV = (60% x $19.1m) + ( 40% x $6.1 m)

NPV = $11.46m + $2.44m

NPV = $13.9m

Solution (NPV if the firm conducts customer segment research)

NPV = ((Successful probability x initial selling) + (Unsuccessful probability x Unsuccessful present value)/1+discount rate ) - research cost

NPV = [tex]\frac{13.9m}{1+0.14} - 1.14[/tex]

NPV = $12.19m - $1.14m

NPV = $11.05m

Note: We can calculate NPV if the firm conducts customer segment research by dividing NPV calculated above by (1+discount rate) and research cost is deducted from the whole.

"Which of the following statements are TRUE regarding the rights agent? I The rights agent usually handles the mechanics of a rights offering II The rights agent is usually the existing transfer agent of the issuer III The rights agent issues the additional shares upon presentation of the rights certificates with payment"

Answers

Answer:

I, II, and III

I The rights agent usually handles the mechanics of a rights offering

II The rights agent is usually the existing transfer agent of the issuer

III The rights agent issues the additional shares upon presentation of the rights certificates with payment

Explanation:

Aright is defined as an offering to existing shareholders to purchase more shares. Usually there is a proportion of original shares the shareholder can now purchase. For example 1 to 5 shares means the shareholder can buy one share for every 5 old shares owned.

A rights agent is a person or entity that is responsible for maintaining records on behalf of rights holders.

When rights are issued, a rights agent is handles sales to shareholders, he is usually the initial transfer agent for the issuing company, and he issues the additional shares when payment and rights certificates are presented.
