Mars Inc., an oil and gas incorporation, opened its first unique service station in Mexico. The service station consisted of pumping islands, convenience stores, and separate food courts. Owing to the station's success, the company opened more than 300 service stations worldwide. Identify the offensive strategic goal that can explain why Mars expanded its services globally. Group of answer choices To increase long-term growth and profit prospects To prevent global consolidation To preempt competitors' from opening similar stores To avoid being locked out of markets by arriving too late

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: To increase long-term growth and profit prospects

Explanation:

The company saw that the unique service station was a success which meant that it brought in profits. They therefore applied the business model to other places so that they could make profits from there as well.

This will increase the long-term growth of the company as well as profit prospects because there will now be a chance of making the same profits as they did from the first station but this time, from 300 stations. The increased market presence coupled with the services they offer, makes for huge growth and profit prospects.

You are in the process of deciding whether or not to launch a new product. In year 3 of your analysis you project pro forma sales of $4,000,000 and cost of goods sold of $3,800,000. You will be depreciating a $300,000 machine for 5 years using straight-line depreciation. Your tax rate is 27%. Finally, you expect working capital to change from $220,000 in year 2 to 320,000 in year 3. What is your pro forma free cash flow for year 3

Answers

Answer:

net cash flow $62,200

Explanation:

The computation of the pro forma free cash flow for the year 3 is given below:

Pro forma sales $4,000,000

less cost of goods sold -$3,800,000

Profit before tax and depreciation $200,000

less Depreciation ($300,000 ÷ 5) $60,000

Profit before tax $140,000

less tax at  27% -$38,700

Profit after tax $102,200

add Depreciation $60,000

less change in working capital ($320,000 - $220,000) -$100,000

net cash flow $62,200

On December 31, 2020, Clarkson Company had 100,000 shares of common stock outstanding and 30,000 shares of 7%, $50 par, cumulative preferred stock outstanding. On February 28, 2021, Clarkson purchased 24,000 shares of common stock on the open market as treasury stock paying $45 per share. Clarkson sold 6,000 of the treasury shares on September 30, 2021, for $47 per share. Net income for 2021 was $180,905. Also outstanding at December 31, 2020, were fully vested incentive stock options giving key executives the option to buy 50,000 common shares at $40. These stock options were exercised on November 1, 2021. The market price of the common shares averaged $50 during 2021. Required: Compute Clarkson's basic and diluted earnings per share for 2021. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Basic EPS Diluted EPS

Answers

Answer:Basic Earnings per share =0.93

Diluted Earnings per share = 0.83

Explanation:

basic earnings per share = (net income - preferred dividends) / weighted average stocks

Net income                                                                        $180,905

Less Preference Dividend (30,000× $50×7%)                  ($105,000)

Attributable to Holders of Common Stock       $75,905

Also, Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks is given as

Common Stocks 1 January                                         100,000

 (outstanding sharesx 12/12)

add common Stocks September 30, 2021                 1,500

(sold 6000 treasury stocks x 3/12)

less Common Stocks February 28, 2021                   (20,000)

(purchased -24,000 treasury stocks x 10/12 )

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks         81,500    

 

Basic Earnings per share =  $75,905/ 81,500    =0.93

B)

Diluted earnings per share = (net income - preferred dividends) / (weighted average stocks + diluted stocks) =

Net income                                                                          $180,905

Less Preference Dividend(30,000× $50×7%)                    (($105,000)

Earnings To Holders of Common Stock                              $75,905

Also, Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks  

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks                  81,500  

Add                                                  

diluted stocks = [($50 - $40) / $50] x 50,000 =                   10,000

Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks     91,500  

Diluted Earnings per share = $75,905 /91,500 =0.83

                                             

Turner, Roth, and Lowe are partners who share income and loss in a 2:3:5 ratio. After lengthy disagreements among the partners and several unprofitable periods, the partners decide to liquidate the partnership. Immediately before liquidation, the partnership balance sheet shows total assets, $150,000; total liabilities, $98,000; Turner, Capital, $4,500; Roth, Capital, $15,000; and Lowe, Capital, $32,500. The cash proceeds from selling the assets were sufficient to repay all but $38,000 to the creditors.
Required:
a. Calculate the loss from selling the assets.
b. Allocate the loss from part a to the partners.
c. Determine how much, if any, each partner should contribute to the partnership to cover any remaining capital deficiency.

Answers

Answer:

Turner, Roth, and Lowe Partnership

a. The Loss from selling the assets = $90,000

b. Allocation of the loss to the partners:

Turner = $18,000 (2/10 * $90,000)

Roth = $27,000 (3/10 * $90,000)

Lowe = $45,000 (5/10 * $90,000)

c. Capital contribution by partners to cover capital deficiency:

                                     Turner     Roth        Lowe       Total

Capital contribution   $13,500  $12,000   $12,500  $38,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Total assets,          $150,000

Total liabilities,        $98,000

Turner, Capital,         $4,500

Roth, Capital,           $15,000

Lowe, Capital,         $32,500

Liabilities + Equity $150,000

Cash proceeds from sale of assets = $60,000 ($98,000 - $38,000)

Loss from selling the assets = $90,000 ($150,000 - $60,000)

Loss sharing ratio = 2:3:5

Loss sharing:

Turner = $18,000 (2/10 * $90,000)

Roth = $27,000 (3/10 * $90,000)

Lowe = $45,000 (5/10 * $90,000)

Capital Deficiency =

                                     Turner     Roth        Lowe

Capital accounts         $4,500   $15,000   $32,500

Loss sharing               (18,000)   (27,000)   (45,000)

Capital Deficiency   ($13,500)  ($12,000) ($12,500)

Capital contribution $13,500    $12,000   $12,500

b) After contributing to the capital deficiencies to the tune of $38,000, the remaining liabilities will be settled.

Answers

Answer:

Direct labor rate variance= $2,420 favorable

Explanation:

To calculate the direct labor rate variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (15.95 - 15.73)*11,000

Direct labor rate variance= $2,420 favorable

Actual rate= 173,030/11,000= $15.73

4 Purchased 20 headphones at $30 each on account. Payment is due in 45 days.
5 Sold 4 headphones for $70 each on account.

Answers

Answer:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity = -$6,500

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for recording of the impact (increase or decrease) of April 2021 transactions on the accounting equation.

From the attached excel file, we can obtain the following:

Assets = Total assets = -$99,900 + $90,000 + $600 + $2,800 = -$6,500

Liabilities = Total liabilities = $600

Stockholders’ Equity = Total Stockholders’ Equity = -$7,100

Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity = $600 - $7,100 = -$6,500

Therefore, the accounting equation holds as follows:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity = -$6,500

Companies often require non-disclosure agreements from their employees because a non-disclosure agreement

identifies all the different ways an employee could violate company policies
maintains employee trust, which is needed for productivity and therefore profitability
provides for a documented exchange of information between employees and employers

Answers

Answer:

Allows the employer to release private information about employees if necessary

Explanation:

Companies often require non-disclosure agreements from their employees because a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is a legally binding contract that establishes a confidential relationship between two or more parties. The purpose of a non-disclosure agreement is twofold: confidentiality and protection. An NDA creates the legal framework to protect ideas and information from being stolen or shared with competitors or third parties. Breaking an NDA agreement triggers a host of legal ramifications, including lawsuits, financial penalties, and even criminal charges. NDAs offer a level of protection to businesses so that even accidental breaches are covered.

2. Which resource should be used in larger and/or smaller amounts?

a- Use less of both

b- Conditions are already consistent

c- Use more of both

d- Use less labor and more capital

e- Use more labor and less capital

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

The condition for the profit maximization of a firm is as follows:

MRPL / PL = MRPC / PC ……………………………. (1)

Therefore, we have:

a. MRPL = $8; PL = $4; MRPC = $8; PC = $4

MRPL / PL = $8 / $4 = 2

MRPC / PC = $8 / $4 = 2

Using equation (1), we have:

MRPL / PL = MRPC / PC = 2

a-1. These conditions are consistent with maximum profits for the firm.

True, these conditions are consistent with maximum profits for the firm. This is because MRPL / PL = MRPC / PC = 2.

a-2. Which resource should be used in larger and/or smaller amounts?

The correct option is b. Conditions are already consistent.

b. MRPL = $10; PL = $12; MRPC = $14; PC = $9

MRPL / PL = $10 / $12 = 0.83

MRPC / PC = $14 / $9 = 1.56

Using equation (1), we have:

0.83 = MRPL / PL <  MRPC / PC = 1.56

b-1. These conditions are consistent with maximum profits for the firm.

False, these conditions are NOT consistent with maximum profits for the firm. This is because 0.83 = MRPL / PL <  MRPC / PC = 1.56.

b-2. Which resource should be used in larger and/or smaller amounts?

The correct option is e- Use more labor and less capital. If this is done, it will result in MRPL / PL = MRPC / PC where the conditions will be consistent with maximum profits for the firm.

c. MRPL = $6; PL = $6; MRPC = $12; PC = $12

MRPL / PL = $6 / $6 = 1.00

MRPC / PC = $12 / $12 = 1.00

Using equation (1), we have:

MRPL / PL = MRPC / PC = 1

c-1. These conditions are consistent with maximum profits for the firm.

True, these conditions are consistent with maximum profits for the firm. This is because MRPL / PL = MRPC / PC = 1.

c-2. Which resource should be used in larger and/or smaller amounts?

The correct option is b. Conditions are already consistent.

d. MRPL = $22; PL = $26; MRPC = $16; PC = $19

MRPL / PL = $22 / $26 = 0.85

MRPC / PC = $16 / $19 = 0.84

Using equation (1), we have:

0.85 = MRPL / PL >  MRPC / PC = 0.84

d-1. These conditions are consistent with maximum profits for the firm.

False, these conditions are NOT consistent with maximum profits for the firm. This is because 0.85 = MRPL / PL >  MRPC / PC = 0.84.

d-2. Which resource should be used in larger and/or smaller amounts?

The correct option is d- Use less labor and more capital. If this is done, it will result in MRPL / PL = MRPC / PC where the conditions will be consistent with maximum profits for the firm.

Corporate Tax Liability The Talley Corporation had taxable operating income of $340,000 (i.e., earnings from operating revenues minus all operating costs). Talley also had (1) interest charges of $50,000, (2) dividends received of $25,000, and (3) dividends paid of $35,000. Its federal tax rate was 21% (ignore any possible state corporate taxes). Recall that 50% of dividends received are tax exempt. What is the firm’s taxable income? Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $ What is the tax expense? Round your answers to the nearest dollar. $ What is the after-tax income? Round your answers to the nearest dollar. $

Answers

Answer:

Taxable income:

Dividends received are 50% exempted from taxation. Taxable income is:

= Taxable operating income +(Dividends received * 50%) - Interest charges

= 340,000 + (25,000 * 50%) - 50,000

= $302,500

Tax expense:

= Taxable income * federal tax rate

= 302,500 * 21%

= $63,525

After-tax income:

= Taxable income - Tax expense

= 302,500 - 63,525

= $238,975
