Assignment: Capital Budgeting Decisions Your company is considering undertaking a project to expand an existing product line. The required rate of return on the project is 8% and the maximum allowable payback period is 3 years.
time 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Cash flow $ 10,000 2,400 4,800 3,200 3,200 2,800 2,400
Evaluate the project using each of the following methods. For each method, should the project be accepted or rejected? Justify your answer based on the method used to evaluate the project’s cash flows.
A. Payback period
B. Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
C. Simple Rate of Return
D. Net Present Value
Answer:
A. Payback period
payback period = 2.875 years, therefore, the project should be accepted because the payback period is less than 3 years.B. Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
IRR = 22.69%, therefore, the project should be accepted since the IRR is higher than the required rate of return (8%).C. Simple Rate of Return
simple rate of return = 18%, therefore, the project should be accepted because the simple rate of return is higher than the required rate of return.D. Net Present Value
NPV = $4,647.85 , therefore, the project should be accepted since the NPV is positive.Explanation:
year cash flow
0 -$10,000
1 $2,400
2 $4,800
3 $3,200
4 $3,200
5 $2,800
6 $2,400
discount rate 8%
I used a financial calculator to determine the NPV and IRR.
Payback period = $10,000 - $2,400 - $4,800 = $2,800 / $3,200 = 0.875
payback period = 2.875 years
simple rate of return:
average cash flow = ($2,400 + $4,800 + $3,200 + $3,200 + $2,800 + $2,400) / 6 = $3,467
depreciation expense per year = $10,000 / 6 = $1,667
simple rate of return = ($3,467 - $1,667) / $10,000 = 18%
Locus Company has total fixed costs of $117,000. Its product sells for $51 per unit and variable costs amount to $26 per unit. Next year Locus Company wishes to earn a pretax income that equals 50% of fixed costs. How many units must be sold to achieve this target income level
Answer:
Break-even point in units= 7,020 units
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $117,000
Selling price= $51
Unitary variable cost= $26
Desired profit= $58,500
To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (117,000 + 58,500) / (51 - 26)
Break-even point in units= 7,020 units
Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a(n):
Answer:
Reversionary interest
Explanation:
If Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a reversionary interest.
A reversionary interest can be defined as a property law (deed) which states that when a property such as a land transfer is used on a clause; “for so long as” or “on condition that."
Hence, once the interest of the benefactor comes to an end, the property reverts back to its original owner (grantor). It also gives the grantor's next of kin, successor or heir the power or right to take the property back in the future if promises are broken or the agreement comes to an end.
This ultimately implies that, if a property stated in the deed is not used or used, for certain purposes.
In this scenario, Larry owns a reversionary interest because he gifts a land to the school district, but in the deed he stated "for so long as the land is used for a school."
The following information is from the annual financial statements of Raheem Company. Year 3 Year 2 Year 1 Net sales $ 308,000 $ 239,000 $ 289,000 Accounts receivable, net (year-end) 37,700 35,500 32,200 (1) Compute its accounts receivable turnover for Year 2 and Year 3. (2) Assuming its competitor has a turnover of 12.6, is Raheem performing better or worse at collecting receivables than its competitor? Better Worse
Answer:
(1) Compute its accounts receivable turnover for Year 2 and Year 3.
year 2 = 7.06year 3 = 8.42(2) Assuming its competitor has a turnover of 12.6, is Raheem performing better or worse at collecting receivables than its competitor?
the higher the accounts receivable turnover ratio, the better. In this case, their competitor is much better at collecting their accounts receivables than Raheem.Explanation:
Year 3 Year 2 Year 1
Net sales $308,000 $239,000 $289,000
Accounts receivable, net (year-end) $37,700 $35,500 $32,200
accounts receivable turnover = net sales / average accounts receivable
accounts receivable turnover year 2 = 239,000 / [(35,500 + 32,200)/2] = 7.06
accounts receivable turnover year 3 = 308,000 / [(35,500 + 37,700)/2] = 8.42

When Marilyn Monroe died, ex-husband Joe DiMaggio vowed to place fresh flowers on her grave every Sunday as long as he lived. The week after she died in 1962, a bunch of fresh flowers that the former baseball player thought appropriate for the star cost about $6. Based on actuarial tables, "Joltin' Joe" could expect to live for 25 years after the actress died. Assume that the EAR is 11.4 percent. Also, assume that the price of the flowers will increase at 3.3 percent per year, when expressed as an EAR. Assuming that each year has exactly 52 weeks, what is the present value of this commitment? Joe began purchasing flowers the week after Marilyn died.
Answer: $3,338.56.
Explanation:
Given, EAR = 11.4 percent =0.114
Weekly interest rate=[tex]\dfrac{EAR}{\text{Number of weeks in a year}}=\dfrac{0.114}{52}=0.00219[/tex]
Growth rate of price of flowers = 3.3 % per year
Weekly growth rate=[tex]\dfrac{0.033}{52}=0.00063[/tex]
Star Cost (C)= $6
Time period (t)= 25 years
= 25 x 52 = 1300 weeks
Required formula for growing annuity :
[tex]PV=\dfrac{C}{r-g}[1-(\dfrac{1+g}{1+r})^t][/tex],
where C = Star cost
r = rate per period
g= growth rate
t = time period
[tex]PV=\dfrac{6}{0.00219-0.00063}[1-(\dfrac{1+0.00063}{1+0.00219})^{1300}]\\\\=\dfrac{6}{0.00156}[1-(0.998443408934)^{1300}]\\\\=(3846.15384615)[1-0.13197471131]\\\\=(3846.15384615)(0.86802528869)\approx\$3338.56[/tex]
Hence, the present value of this commitment = $3,338.56.

General factory MHs 224,825 5800 5700 11,500
$466,216
If the company allocates all of its overhead based on direct labor-hours using its traditional costing method, the predetermined overhead rate would be closest to:__________
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $29.59 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total direct labor-hours 15,755
Total overhead:
Labor-related DLHs= $172,482
Product testing tests= $68,909
General factory MHs= $224,825
Total= $466,216
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 466,216/15,755
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $29.59 per direct labor hour
"Mussatto Corporation produces snowboards. The following per unit cost information is available: direct materials $10, direct labor $4, variable manufacturing overhead $3, fixed manufacturing overhead $10, variable selling and administrative expenses $1, and fixed selling and administrative expenses $8. Using a 25% markup percentage on total per unit cost, compute the target selling price. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 10.50.)"
Answer:
The target selling price =$45
Explanation:
The target selling price is the sum of the total unit cost plus 25% of the the unit cost
The target selling price = Total per unit cost + (25% × total unit cost)
The total unit cost is the sum of all the costs involved making the product available to the consumer.
The sum of direct material cost , labour cost variable manufacturing, fixed manufacturing overhead, variable selling and administrative expenses and fixed selling and administrative expenses.
Total unit cost = 10 + 4 + 3 + 10 + 1 + 8 = 36
The target selling price = 36 + (25% × 36) = $45
The target selling price =$45

Fischer Company identified the following activities, costs, and activity drivers.
Activity Expected Costs Expected Activity
Handling parts $425,000 25,000 parts in stock
Inspecting product $390,000 940 batches
Processing purchase orders $220,000 440 orders
Designing packaging $230,000 5 models
1. Compute a plantwide overhead rate assuming the company assigns overhead based on 70,000 budgeted direct labor hours.
B. Compute separate rates for each of the four activities using the activity-based costing.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Activity Expected Costs Expected Activity
Handling parts $425,000 25,000 parts in stock
Inspecting product $390,000 940 batches
Processing purchase orders $220,000 440 orders
Designing packaging $230,000 5 models
Total overhead= $1,265,000
First, we need to calculate a plantwide predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,265,000/70,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $18.07 per direct labor hour
Now, we can determine the overhead rate for each activity:
Handling parts= 425,000/25,000= $17 per part
Inspecting product= 390,000/940= $414.89 per batch
Processing purchase orders= 220,000/440= $500 per order
Designing packaging= 230,000/5= $46,000 per model

In recent years, cellular phones have become very popular. What is the effect of this change in taste and preferences on the market for cellular phones?
Answer:
The effect is a decrease in the use of land line phones, so there is a decrease in demand for land line phones and an increase in demand for cellular phones.
Explanation:
With the popularization of the cell phone, there was an economic effect caused by the increase in demand for cell phones and the decrease in demand for landlines, which means that the landline sector was affected by changes in consumer taste and preferences, which led to many fixed-line operators migrate to a focus on mobile telephony.
With the popularization of cell phones, it is also possible to notice the increase in industries that produce increasingly technological and differentiated devices to meet this constantly growing demand.
Your great aunt left you $15,000 when she died. You can invest the money to earn 6.5% per year. If you spend $2,100 per year out of this inheritance, how long will the money last? Try to use an appropriate annuity formula, and make sure to clearly state any assumptions you make.
Answer:
The money will last for approximately 10 years.
Explanation:
Assuming the withdrawal to spend $2,100 is made at the end of each year, the relevant formula to use is therefore the formula for calculating the present value (PV) of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * [{1 - [1 / (1 + r)]^n} / r] …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value of the inheritance left by your great aunt = $15,000
P = yearly withdrawal = $2,100
r = interest rate = 6.5%, or 0.065
n = number of years the money will last = ?
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n as follows:
15,000 = 2,100 * [{1 - [1 / (1 + 0.065)]^n} / 0.065]
15,000 / 2,100 = {1 - [1 / 1.065]^n} / 0.065
7.14285714285714 = [1 - 0.938967136150235^n] / 0.065
7.14285714285714 * 0.065 = 1 - 0.938967136150235^n
0.464285714285714 = 1 - 0.938967136150235^n
0.938967136150235^n = 1 - 0.464285714285714
0.938967136150235^n = 0.535714285714286
Loglinearize both sides, we have:
n * log 0.938967136150235 = log 0.535714285714286
n = log 0.535714285714286 / log 0.938967136150235
n = -0.271066772286538 / -0.0273496077747564
n = 9.9112 years, or approximately 10 years
Therefore, the money will last for approximately 10 years.
On July 9, Mifflin Company receives a $10,400, 90-day, 8% note from customer Payton Summers as payment on account. What entry should be made on July 9 to record receipt of the note
Answer: Debit Notes Receivable $10,400; credit Accounts Receivable $10,400.
Explanation:
Mifflin Company is receiving the note back from Payton Summers which means that Payton Summers intends to settle their account. The correct entry to record therefore is one that closes off the Notes Receivable account by debiting it as it was on a credit balance.
The other account would be the Accounts Receivable account which would need to be credited by the amount owed to close off the account as it was on a debit balance as Accounts Receivables are when customers are still owing.
If Piper Manufacturing manufactures one unique set of stack pipes, and the sell price is $121,000, the variable costs per unit are $62,000, and the fixed costs are $500,000, what is the break-even point in units
Answer:
8.47
Explanation:
The formula to calculate the break-even point in units is:
Break-even point in units=Fixed costs/(Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit)
Fixed costs= $500.000
Selling price per unit= $121,000
Variable cost per unit= $62,000
Break-even point in units=$500,000/($121,000-$62,000)
Break-even point in units=$500,000/59,000
Break-even point in units=8.47
According to this, the break-even point in units is 8.47.

Toby purchased a 20-year par value bond with semiannual coupons at a nominal annual rate of 8% convertible semiannually at a price of 1,722.25. The bond can be called at par value 1,100 on any coupon date starting at the end of year 15. What is the minimum yield that Toby could receive, expressed as a nominal annual rate of interest convertible semiannually?
Answer:
3.22%
Explanation:
Here, we are interested in calculating the minimum yield that Toby could receive.
To calculate this, we use the YTM formula.
Before we apply this formula, we write out the parameters which we were given in the question.
Given that number of years, n = 15*2 = 30, Price, P = 1722.25, Face value, F = 1100, C = 0.08/2*1100 = 44
Using YTM approximation formula,
YTM = [C + (F – P)/n]/ (F + P)/2
YTM = [44 + (1100 – 1722.25)/30]/ (1100+1722.25)/2
YTM = 23.2583/1411.125
YTM = 1.61%
YTM = 1.61% x 2 = 3.22%

Exercise B: Assume you had invested $1,000 in a lawn mower to set up a lawn mowing business for the summer. During the first week, you could choose either to mow the grounds at a housing development for $1,400 or to help paint a garage for $1,360. Each job would take one week. You cannot do both. You would incur additional costs of $160 for lawn mowing and $80 for garage painting. These costs include $60 under each alternative for transportation to the job. Prepare a schedule showing the net benefit or advantage of selecting one alternative over the other.
Answer:
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&$mow grounds&$paint garage&$Differential\\$Revenue&1400&1360&\\$Cost&-160&-80&\\$Net &1240&1280&-40\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
It is better to paint the garage this week as provide better relevant yield.
Explanation:
The 1,000 invested in the law mower ware sunk cost as it is already incurred. After this week we will be still be able to take jobs ralated to the lawn mower.
We must base our analysis in the future cost associate with each alternative.
These are the revenue of each job and the additional cost.
The transportation as they are equal to both alternative are disregarded.
The net benefit from painting the garage is more than the net benefit of moving by $40. Therefore, we should choose to paint the garage to achieve more profit.
What is the net benefit?The term net benefit means the benefits or profit that can be derived from an activity. It is the difference between the revenue and the cost of the respective activity.
The net benefits from moving and painting will be the difference between the revenue that can be earned by mowing and painting and the respective expenses.
The calculation of net benefit is given in the attachment.
The net benefit from painting the garage is more, therefore, it should be chosen.
