Requirement 1. Nature Place owners want to earn a 10% return on the company's assets. What is Nature Place's target full cost? Calculate the target full cost for Nature Place. Select the formula labels and enter the amounts. Less: Target full cost.
Requirement 2. Given Nature Place's current costs, will its owners be able to achieve their target profit? Calculate Nature Place's current total full cost.
Requirement 3. Assume that Nature Place has identified ways to cut its variable costs to $1.50 per unit. What is its new target fixed cost? Will this decrease in variable costs allow the company to achieve its target profit?
Requirement 4. Nature Place started an aggressive advertising campaign strategy to differentiate its plants from those grown by other nurseries. Nature Place doesn't expect volume to be affected, but it hopes to gain more control over pricing. If Nature Place has to spend $94,000 this year to advertise and its variable costs continue to be $1.50 per unit, what will its cost-plus price be? Do you think Nature Place will be able to sell its plants to garden centers at the cost-plus price? Why or why not? Determine its cost-plus price.
Answer:
ABC Gardening / Nature Place
1. Nature Place's target full cost, with return on assets = 10%
Sales revenue = $1,650,000 (500,000 x $3.30)
Expected Return on Asset = $350,000 ($3.5 million x 10%)
Target full cost = $1,300,000
Fixed cost = $470,000
Variable cost = $830,000 ($1.66 x 500,000)
2. Nature Place's current total full costs; will its owners achieve their target profit:
Sales revenue = $1,650,000 (500,000 x $3.30)
Current full costs:
Variable cost = $800,000 (500,000 x $1.60)
Fixed costs = $470,000
Current full costs = $1,270,000
Current profit = $380,000
Target profit = $350,000
Excess over target = $30,000
The owners will achieve target profit and make an excess of $30,000
3. With variable costs cut to $1.50 per unit, New target fixed cost. Will it achieve its target profit?
Sales revenue = $1,650,000 (500,000 x $3.30)
Variable costs = $750,000 (500,000 x $1.50)
Annual Fixed costs = $470,000
Profit = $430,000
It will exceed its target profit of $350,000 by $80,000.
4.Advertising cost of $94,000 with variable costs of $1.50 per unit, cost-plus price:
Variable costs = $750,000 (500,000 x $1.50)
Annual Fixed costs = $564,000 ($470,000 + 94,000)
Total cost = $1,314,000
Cost plus = $1,664,000 ($1,314,000 + $350,000)
Cost plus price = $3.33 ($1,664,000/500,000)
Do you think Nature Place will be able to sell its plants to garden centers at the cost-plus price?
It will not be able to sell to garden centers at the cost-plus price.
Why or why not?
The garden centers currently buy at $3.30, a little less than its cost-plus price with advertising cost of $94,000. It will be losing $15,000 if it sells its products to garden centers at their current buying price.
Explanation:
a) Data:
Assets = $3.5 million
Target profit on assets = $350,000 = ($3.5 million x 10%)
Annual Fixed costs = $470,000
Variable costs = $1.60
Volume = 500,000
Competitors price to garden centers = $3.30 each
Selling price to the public = $8 to $9
Total costs and Profit:
Sales revenue = $1,650,000 (500,000 x $3.30)
Variable costs = $800,000 (500,000 x $1.60)
Annual Fixed costs = $470,000
Profit = $380,000
b) In target profit costing, the starting point for calculating costs is the selling price and the target profit. When the profit is deducted from the selling price, a full cost per unit is determined. This determined figure will be the ceiling for costs. Any overrun negatively affects the target profit. Instead of overrunning the target cost, management must work toward a full cost that is less than the established target cost.
During an economic crisis many financial managers and corporate officers have been criticized for: Poor decisions Lack of ethical behavior Large salaries Lucrative severance packages worth millions of dollars Extravagant lifestyles Is this criticism justified
Answer:
for having large salaries.
Explanation:
These financial managers and corporate officers were criticized for having large salaries. This is mainly because during the financial crisis the stocks of these companies plummeted while compensation was still exorbitant. Compensation was supposed to be an incentive given to talent for maximizing the overall value of the firm through their work. Since this is not being done by the shareholders and officers then they should not be enjoying these compensations.
Consider the following information for Maynor Company, which uses a periodic inventory system:
Transaction Units Unit Cost Total Cost
January 1 Beginning
Inventory 29 $ 79 $ 2,291
March 28 Purchase 39 85 3,315
August 22 Purchase 58 89 5,162
October 14 Purchase 63 95 5,985
Goods Available for Sale 189 $ 16,753
The company sold 63 units on May 1 and 58 units on October 28.
Required:
Calculate the company's ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the each of following inventory costing methods. (Round the per unit cost to two decimal places and then round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
a. FIFO:
b. LIFO:
c. Weighted Average
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
January 1 Beginning Inventory 29 $79 $2,291
March 28 Purchase 39 $85 3,315
August 22 Purchase 58 $89 5,162
October 14 Purchase 63 $95 5,985
The company sold 63 units on May 1 and 58 units on October 28.
First, we need to calculate the units in ending inventory:
Ending inventory in units= 189 - 121= 68
To calculate the ending inventory under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the last units incorporated into inventory.
Ending inventory= 63*95 + 5*89= $6,430
COGS= 29*79 + 39*85 + 53*89= $10,323
To calculate the ending inventory under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the first units incorporated into the inventory
Ending inventory= 29*79 + 39*85= $5,606
COGS= 63*95 + 58*89= $11,147
Finally, to calculate the ending inventory using the weighted-average, we need to calculate the weighted average price:
weighted average price= 16,753/189= $88.64
Ending inventory= 68*88.64= $6,027.52
COGS= 121*88.64= $10,725.44
Filer Manufacturing has 11.6 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $59, and the book value per share is $5. Filer Manufacturing also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $99 million, has a 8 percent coupon, and sells for 92 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $81.2 million, has a 8 percent coupon, and sells for 95.5 percent of par. The first issue matures in 10 years, the second in 5 years. What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis?
Answer:
a. Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis is 24%.
b. Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis is 76%.
c. Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis is 80%.
d. Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis is 20%.
Explanation:
a. What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Equity book value = Equity book value per share * Number of shares = 11,600,000 * $5 = $58,000,000
Debt book value = Debt face value = First bond face value + Second face value = $99,000,000 + $81,200,000 = $180,200,000
Total book value = $58,000,000 + $180,200,000 = $238,200,000
Book value weight of equity = Equity book value / Total book value = $58,000,000 / $238,200,000 = 0.24, or 24%
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a book value basis is 24%.
b. What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
From part a, we have:
Debt book value = $180,200,000
Total book value = $238,200,000
Therefore, we have:
Book value weight of debt = Debt book value / Total book value = $180,200,000 / $238,200,000 = 0.76, or 76%
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a book value basis is 76%.
c. What is Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
Equity market value = Current share price * Number of shares = $59 * 11,600,000 = $684,400,000
Debt market value = Bond price quote * Par value of the bond
Debt market value = First bond market value + Second bond market value = (92% * $99,000,000) + (95.5% * $81,200,000) = $168,626,000
Total market value = Equity market value + Debt market value = $684,400,000 + $168,626,000 = $853,026,000
Market value weight of equity = Equity market value / Total market value = $684,400,000 / $853,026,000 = 0.80, or 80%
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of equity on a market value basis is 80%.
d. What is Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis?
From part c, we have:
Debt market value = $168,626,000
Total market value = $853,026,000
Market value weight of debt = Debt market value / Total market value = $168,626,000 / $853,026,000 = 0.20, or 20%.
Therefore, Filer's capital structure weight of debt on a market value basis is 20%.

What is the difference in operating income between processing the cat bowls further versus selling them off at the split-off point?
Answer: -$1,920
Explanation:
Operating Income if processed further would be;
= (Sales * Price) - Incremental Cost
= (1,000 * $14) - 4,920
= 14,000 - 4,920
= $9,080
Operating Income if sold off at split-off point;
= Sales * Price
= 1,000 * $11
= $11,000
Difference
= Processed Further - Sold at split-off
= 9,080 - 11,000
= -$1,920
Difference would be an Operating (loss) of $1,920.
A pound of steak costs $10 in the U.S. and 56.25 riyals (the currency of Saudi Arabia) in Saudi Arabia. If the real exchange rate is 2/3, what is the nominal exchange rate
Answer: 3.75 Riyals / USD
Explanation:
The Real Exchange rate is different from the Nominal exchange rate as it takes into account, the differences between the 2 nations being compared in terms of prices of goods and services.
As such it can be used to calculate the Nominal rate;
Real Exchange Rate = (Cost in U.S. x Nominal Exchange Rate) / Cost in Saudi Arabia
2/3 = (10 x Nominal Exchange Rate) / 56.25
2/3 x 56.25 = 10 x Nominal Exchange Rate
10 x Nominal Exchange Rate = 37.50
Nominal Exchange Rate = 37.50 / 10
Nominal Exchange Rate = 3.75 Riyals / USD
The nominal exchange rate is 3.75 Riyals for every $1.
You are working at a practice that has a very busy daily schedule and needs to standardize the times when statements are handled and payments are due. What type of billing practice should use?
Answer: Cycle Billing
Explanation:
Cycle billing refers to a billing practice where the individual customer is billed on a certain schedule based on the day you started paying or the day the contract kicked in. For instance, your cellular network provider billing you on the same day every month.
This ensures that not all customers are billed on the same day which will reduce the workload at the practice which already has a busy schedule. Rather with customers being billed on different days, the workload decreases.
Also it will then be known for certain which dates one can expect payments as well as when statements will be handled.

During March, Pendergraph Corporation incurred $65,000 of actual Manufacturing Overhead costs. During the same period, the Manufacturing Overhead applied to Work in Process was $67,000. The journal entry to record the incurrence of the actual Manufacturing Overhead costs would include a:
Answer:
debit to Manufacturing Overhead of $65,000
Explanation:
Manufacturing overhead cost are those that are shared to different processes that do not contribute directly to product being manufactured.
For example raw materials is a direct contributor to goods, while labour is a overhead cost that indirectly contributed to the good.
On the given scenario it is the actual amount incurred that will be debited to the books of the company.
So there will be a debit to Manufacturing Overhead of $65,000
A bond with a coupon rate of "5.96" percent and semiannual coupon payments matures in 18 years. The YTM is 6.97 percent. What is the effective annual yield?
Available Options Are:
(A) 7.38%
(B) 5.96%
(C) 6.05%
(D) 7.09%
(E) 6.97%
Answer:
Effective Annual Yield is 7.09%
Explanation:
The Effective Annual Yield can be calculated as under:
Effective Annual Yield = (1 + YTM / n)^n - 1
Here,
YTM is 6.97%
n is 12/6 for semi annual coupon payments
By putting values, we have:
Effective Annual Yield = (1 + 6.97% / 2)^2 - 1
Effective Annual Yield = (1.03485)^2 - 1 = 0.0709145 = 7.09%

2. Calculate ROE for 2020. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
3. Calculate working capital at December 31, 2020.
4. Calculate the current ratio at December 31, 2020. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
5. Calculate the acid-test ratio at December 31, 2020. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
1. 16.83%
2. 28.04%
3. $101,000
4. 1.97
5. 0.98
Explanation:
Return On Investment (ROI) = Net Profit After Tax / Total Assets × 100
= $53,000 / $ 315,000 × 100
= 16.825 or 16.83%
Return On Equity (ROE) =Net Profit After Tax / Total Shareholders Funds × 100
= $53,000 / $ 189,000 × 100
= 28.0423 or 28.04 %
Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
= $ 205,000 - $ 104,000
= $101,000
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
= $ 205,000 / $ 104,000
= 1.9712 or 1.97
Acid Test Ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities
= ($ 205,000 - $ 103,000) / $ 104,000

Answer:
real GDP
Explanation:
The above rule was proposed by Milton Friedman that the money supplied by the central bank be increased by constant percentage on annual basis. In other words, constant money growth rate rule suggested money supply growth rate be equal to GDP growth rate annually.
According to Friedman, monetary policy contributes to fluctuation in an economy. He suggested that the best way to stabilize a fluctuating economy is to allow the central bank increase money supply in the long run by a targeted amount annually irrespective of the situation of the economy.
Consider a potential merger between two hypothetical beer companies. Prior to the merger, the first, Ann Hy, is worth $150 billion and the second, Czar Bosch, is worth $100 billion. If they merge, they will gain $30 billion in increased value from reduced costs and additional sales (in present discounted value). Thus the combined value of the new entity (called Ann Hy-Czar Bosch) would be $280 billion. How much more could Czar Bosch hope to get by using the theory of the pie instead of proportional division
Answer:
$3 billion more
Explanation:
Calculation of the amount that Czar Bosch could hope to get by using the theory of the pie instead of proportional division
If we are to use the theory of the pie instead of the proportional division this means that when using the proportional division, their would be likelihood that Czar Bosch would get an amount that is proportional to their market cap, 40% of the $30 billion, or $12 billion and in a situation where the they decide to split the pie this means that Czar Bosch would either get$15 billion or $3 billion more

On June 1, 2015, the Crocus Company began construction of a new manufacturing plant. The plant was completed on October 31, 2016. Expenditures on the project were as follows ($ in millions): July 1, 2015 54 October 1, 2015 22 February 1, 2016 30 April 1, 2016 21 September 1, 2016 20 October 1, 2016 6 On July 1, 2015, Crocus obtained a $70 million construction loan with a 6% interest rate. The loan was outstanding through the end of October, 2016. The company's only other interest-bearing debt was a long-term note for $100 million with an interest rate of 8%. This note was outstanding during all of 2015 and 2016. The company's fiscal year-end is December 31.
What is the amount of interest that Crocus should capitalize in 2016, using the specific interest method (rounded to the nearest thousand dollars)?
Answer:
$7,117,000
Explanation:
There is some information missing that I looked up, hopefully the numbers are the same, but if not you can adjust them.
Weighted average expenditures:
July 1, 2015, $54 million
October 1, 2015, $22 million
February 1, 2016, $30 million
April 1, 2016, $21 million
September 1, 2016, $20 million
October 1, 2016, $6 million
we must first determine the amount of interest for 2015:
[($54 x 6/6) + ($22 x 3/6)] x 6% / 6/12 = $1.95 million
weighted average expenditures 2016:
($54 + $22 + $1.95 = $77.95) x 10/10 = $77.95$30 x 9/10 = $27$21 x 7/10 = $14.7$20 x 2/10 = $4$6 x 1/10 = $0.6total $124.25 millioninterests:
$70 x 6% x 10/12 = $3,500,000($124.25 - $70) x 8% x 10/12 = $3,617,000 (rounded to nearest thousand)Total = $7,117,0002. A Treasury bill with a par value of £100,000 due in two months from now is selling today for £98,039, what is the effective annual rate of interest
Answer:
Effective annual rate = 12.62%
Explanation:
The Effective annual rate of return is the equivalent rate earned where compounding is done frequently at period or interval less than a year.
The EAR can be worked out as follows
EAR = ( (1+r)^n - 1 ) × 100
r- interest rate per period
m- number of periods in a year
EAR - Effective annual rate
So we apply this model to the questions as follows:
Cash return = 100,000- 98,039 =1,961
Return over two months = cash return /price today × 100 =
= 1,961/98,039 × 100 =2.0%
Interest per 2 month = 2.0%
DATA:
r- 2%
n - number of two months in a year = 6
Effective annual rate = ((1+0.02)^6 - 1) × 100= 12.6162 %
Effective annual rate = 12.62%
In many larger U.S. based firms the __________ match(es) the overall strategy of the firm and reinforce(s) the culture emerging from day-to-day activities.
Answer:
Reward system
Explanation:
The reward system is the mechanism that a company uses to provide a compensation to their employees that can include salary, bonuses, equity and perks to keep them happy, maintain loyalty and increase motivation. This allows the company to have a strong team that is willing to work hard in their daily activities to achieve the company's goals.
According to this, the answer is that in many larger U.S. based firms the reward system match(es) the overall strategy of the firm and reinforce(s) the culture emerging from day-to-day activities because the reward system is established in a way in which it contributes to the appropiate implementation of the strategy to achieve the goals and it also helps strengthen the way in which people perform their activities.
A proposed new project has projected sales of $95,200, costs of $48,160, and depreciation of $3,360. The tax rate is 22 percent. Calculate operating cash flow using the four different approaches. The EBIT approach
Answer:
Approach 1
“EBIT + Depreciation – Taxes” approach:
EBIT = Sales – Cost – Depreciation = $95,200 - $48,160 - $3,360 = $43,680
Tax = EBIT × Tax rate = $43,680 × 0.22 = $9,607
EBIT + Depreciation – Taxes = $43,680 + $3,360 - $9,607 = $37,433
Approach 2
Top-down approach = Sales – Cost – Tax
= $95,200 - $48,160 - $9,607
= $37,433
Approach 3
Tax-shield approach = (Sales – Cost) (1 – tax rate) + (Depreciation × tax rate)
= ($95,200 - $48,160) (1 – 0.22) + ($3,360 × 0.22)
= $36691.2 + $739.2
= $37430.4
Approach 4
Bottom-up approach = (Sales – Cost – Depreciation) (1 – tax rate) + Depreciation
= ($95,200 - $48,160 - $3,360 ) (1 – 0.22) + $3,360
= $34,070.4 + $$3,360
= $37,430.4
Retired utility workers are suing their former employer for knowingly exposing them to asbestos without warning them of the health risks. The retired workers did not learn of the prolonged exposure until long after their retirement because the company engaged in a systematic cover up of the exposure. The retired workers' cause of action is for which of the following?
a. Assault
b. Battery
c. Injurious falsehood
d. Tortious interference
Answer:
b. Battery
Explanation:
Retired utility workers are suing their former employer for knowingly exposing them to asbestos without warning them of the health risks. The retired workers did not learn of the prolonged exposure until long after their retirement because the company engaged in a systematic cover up of the exposure. The retired workers' cause of action is for battery.
In Business law, battery can be defined as the act of intentionally causing physical harm to an individual or group of people through physical contacts.
Hence, in this case the employers knowingly or intentionally exposed the retired workers to asbestos without warning them of the health risks associated.
Simply stated, a battery in criminal law is completed assault.
Gift property (disregarding any adjustment for gift tax paid by the donor): a.Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain. b.Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a loss, and the fair market value on the date of gift was less than the donor's adjusted basis. c.Has a zero basis to the donee if the fair market value on the date of gift is less than the donor's adjusted basis. d.Has no basis to the donee because he or she did not pay anything for the property.
Answer: Has the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain.
Explanation:
For a gifted property, it should be noted that the tax basis for a donee that is, the person who gets the gift will be identical to that of the donor, this is, the person that donates the gift in cases whereby the property is gotten as a gift.
Therefore, a gift property disregarding any adjustment for gift tax paid by the donor will have the same basis to the donee as the donor's adjusted basis if the donee disposes of the property at a gain.
Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a 30-year, 6 percent semiannual bond three years ago. The bond currently sells for 93 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 22 percent. a. What is the pretax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b. What is the aftertax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
a. What is the pretax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
6.46%b. What is the aftertax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
5.04%Explanation:
we must first determine the bond's yield to maturity:
YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2] = {30 + [(1,000 - 930)/60]} / [(1,000 + 930)/2] = 31.17 / 965 = 3.23% x 2 = 6.46%
after tax cost of debt = 6.46% x (1 - tax rate) = 6.46% x (1 - 22%) = 6.46% x 78% = 5.04%
During lunch time, customers arrive at a postal office at a rate of lambda equals 36 per hour. The interarrival time of the arrival process can be approximated with an exponential distribution. Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of mu equals 45 per hour. The service time for the customers can also be approximated with an exponential distribution. For each of the following questions, show your work and use the right notation. Determine the utilization factor.
a. po = 4/5
b. po = 5/4
c. po = 1/5
d. po = 1/9
e. none of these
Answer:
a. po = 4/5
Explanation:
Customer arrives at the rate of λ equal 36 per hour
Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of μ equals 45 per hour
λ = 36 / hour
μ = 45 / hour
P = λ / μ
P= 36 / 45
P= 4/5
Thus, the utilization factor is 4/5
b. Suppose Tom has $5 to spend on Batman and Superman comic books (nothing else matters to Tom). If Tom wants to maximize his utility, how many of each should he buy
Answer:
But 1 Batman comics book, and 2 Superman comics book
Explanation:
Remember, Tom has only $5 to spend on the two books, with the goal of deriving maximum utility. Thus, if he spends on 2 quantity of Superman comics he deeives total marginal utility of 150 (58+92). Then, he may proceed to Batman comics, which gives him a marginal utility of 40.
