You are pitching a marketing proposal to a company that sells electronic equipment. For a particular product line, their current sales price is $20 per unit, cost is $9 per unit and they have $20,000 in fixed costs associated with this line. Last year, they sold 8,200 units. You are proposing that the company implement your marketing plan which will cost $3,000 per year. You believe this will increase their sales units by 350 units. Calculate the contribution margin ratio at the projected levels, the projected change in operating income of your proposal and the projected ROI. Additionally, if the company requires a 12% return on its investments, calculate the maximum you could charge for your marketing plan.

Carly Corporation issued $200,000 of 30-year, 8% bonds at 106 on January 1, 2016. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30th and December 31st. The straight-line method of amortization is to be used. After 11 years, what is the carrying value of the bonds?

Answers

Answer:

$207,600

Explanation:

The journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds:

January 1, 2016

Dr Cash 212,000

    Cr Bonds payable 200,000

    Cr Premium on bonds payable 12,000

Premium on bonds payable $12,000 / 60 semiannual coupons = $200 amortization per coupon payment

after 11 years, 22 coupons were paid 22 x $200 = $4,400

bonds carrying value after 11 years = $200,000 + $12,000 - $4,400 = $207,600

In May direct labor was 35% of conversion cost. If the manufacturing overhead for the month was $116,350 and the direct materials cost was $20,200, the direct labor cost was:

Answers

Answer:

Direct labor= $62,650

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

In May direct labor was 35% of conversion cost.

The manufacturing overhead for the month was $116,350.

The conversion costs are the sum of the direct labor and the manufacturing overhead:

Overhead= 65%= 116,350

Direct labor= 35%= ?

First, we need to determine the total amount of conversion costs:

Conversion costs= 116,350/0.65= 179,000

Now, the direct labor cost:

Direct labor= 179,000*0.35

Direct labor= $62,650

What is the present worth of an equal quarterly payment series of $2,000 for six years, if the interest rate is 8% per year, compounded quarterly?

Answers

Answer:

PV= $37,827.85

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cf= $2,000 quarterly

Number of periods= 4*6= 24

i= 0.08/4= 0.02

To calculate the present worth, first, we need to determine the future value using the following formula:

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

A= annual deposit

FV= {2,000*[(1.02^24) - 1]} / 0.02

FV= $60,843.72

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 60,843.72/(1.02^24)

PV= $37,827.85

The value of Mike Jackson’s shares in the New Frontiers Technology Fund is $51,400. The management fee for this particular fund is 0.80 percent of the total asset value. Calculate the management fee Mike must pay this year. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

$411.2

Explanation:

The value of Mike Jackson's shares in the New frontiers technology fund is $51,400

The management fee is 0.80%

= 0.80/100

= 0.008

Therefore, the amount of management fee that Mike must pay this year can be calculated as follows

Management fee= Total amount of investment × management fee percent

= $51,400×0.008

= $411.2

Hence the management percent fee that Mike must pay this year is $411.2

A 25-year, $1,000 par value bond has an 8.5% annual payment coupon. The bond currently sells for $925. If the yield to maturity remains at its current rate, what will the price be 5 years from now

Answers

Answer:

$ 930.20  

Explanation:

We need to first of all determine the yield to maturity using excel rate function:

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

nper is the number of annual coupons i.e 25

pmt is the annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*8.5%=$85

pv is the current market price of $925

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(25,85,-925,1000)=9.28%

In 5 years time,the bond would have 20 years remaining to maturity, as a result, only 20 years coupon would be left to be paid.

The formula for bond price is excel pv function given below:

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

=-pv(9.28% ,20,85,1000)=$ 930.20

Required:
a. What amount must he invest today if his investment earns 12% compounded annually?
b. What amount must he invest today if his investment earns 12% compounded annually?

Answers

Answer:

a. $10,783.68

b. $10,510.36 semi annual compounding

Explanation:

a. This question requires the present value of $26,700 given 8 years and compounded annually at 12%.

Present Value = [tex]\frac{Future Value}{ ( 1 + interest)^{number of periods} }[/tex]

Present Value = [tex]\frac{26,700}{ 1.12^{8} }[/tex]

Present Value = $10,783.68

He would need to invest $10,783.68 today.

b. This is a duplicate of question 1 but I will solve it assuming semi-annual compounding just in case.

12% per annum would become = 12/2 = 6% per semi annum

Number of periods would become = 8 * 2 = 16 periods

Gabriele enterprises has bonds on the market making annual payments, with seven years to maturity, a par value of 1000, and selling for 962. At this price, this price, the bonds yield 6.6 percent.
What must the coupon rate be on the bonds?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is =5.91%

Explanation:

N(Number of periods) = 7 years

I/Y(Yield to maturity) = 6.6percent

PV(present value or market price) = $962

PMT( coupon payment) = ?

FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.

We are using a Financial calculator for this.

N= 7; I/Y = 6.6; PV = -962; FV= $1,000; CPT PMT= $59.05

Therefore, the coupon rate of the bond is of the bond is $59.05/1000

=5.91%

Tri Fecta, a partnership, had revenues of $373,000 in its first year of operations. The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales and still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased. There was no inventory on hand at the end of the year. The partnership paid $27,100 in salaries. The partners invested $41,000 in the business and $25,000 was borrowed on a five-year note. The partnership paid $2,250 in interest that was the amount owed for the year and paid $8,000 for a two-year insurance policy on the first day of business. Ignore income taxes. Compute the cash balance at the end of the first year for Tri Fecta.

Answers

Answer:

Cash balance = $225,150

Explanation:

Cash balance can be calculated by calculating the difference of cash inflows and cash outflows

Cash inflow

Investment              $41,000

Borrowed                $25,000

Cash collection(w)  $327,800

Total Collection      $393,800

Less:

Cash outflow

Merchandise(w)      $131,300

Salaries paid           $27,100

Interest paid           $2,250

Insurance paid       $8,000

Total cash paid     $168,650

Cash Balance = Total Collection - Total Cash paid

Cash balance = $393,800 - $168,650

Cash balance = $225,150

Working

Cash collection = The partnership has not collected on $45,200 of its sales

Cash collection = Sales - 45,200

Cash collection = $373,000 - $45,200

Cash collection = $327,800

Merchandise = Tri Fecta still owes $38,700 on $170,000 of merchandise it purchased

Merchandise = $170,000 - $38,700

Merchandise = $131,300

Max Company uses 20,000 units of Part A in producing its products. A supplier offers to make Part A for $7. Max Company has relevant costs of $8 a unit to manufacture Part A. If there is excess capacity, the opportunity cost of not buying Part A from the supplier is:________
a) $20,000.
b) $0.
c) $160,000.
d) $140,000.

Answers

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Max company makes use of 20,000 units of part A to manufacture its product

A supplier offers to produce part A for $7

Max company has relevant costs to $8 per unit to produce part A

Therefore, the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier can be calculated as follows

Opportunity cost= 20,000 units of part A($8-$7)

= 20,000 units×$1

= 20,000×$1

= $20,000

Hence the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier when there is excess capacity is $20,000

Sage Company is operating at 90% of capacity and is currently purchasing a part used in its manufacturing operations for $15.00 per unit. The unit cost for the business to make the part is $22.00, including fixed costs, and $12.00, excluding fixed costs. If 38,423 units of the part are normally purchased during the year but could be manufactured using unused capacity, what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it?

Answers

Answer:

$115,269 decrease

Explanation:

Below are the following information given in the question.

Purchase price = $15

Variable cost per unit = $12

Fixed cost per unit = $10. i.e $22-$10

Production in units = 38,423

N.B. As in the above scenario, we will need to factor in the variable cost per unit only in order to determine whether it is convenient to make the part in house or purchase it. Also, we will have to ignore fixed costs because of the fact that it is constant in the option of whether to buy or make part in house.

Therefore,

Option at purchasing/Buying

= $38,423 × $15

= $576,345

Option at making the part in house

= $38,423 × $12

= $461,076

Cost difference is therefore = $115,269 decrease

Dr Notes receivable 33,900

    Cr Sales revenue 33,900

Explanation:

Non interest bearing notes must be recorded at present value, so we need to determine the present value of the payment:

Payment due December 21, 2021, PV = $39,700 / (1 + 8%) = $36,759.26

Payment due December 21, 2022, PV = $39,700 / (1 + 8%)² = $34,036.35

We use the discount on notes receivable account (contra asset account) to decrease the net value of notes receivable.

You invest a single amount of $14,800 for 7 years at 15 percent. At the end of 7 years you take the proceeds and invest them for 14 years at 17 percent. How much will you have after 21 years

Answers

Answer:

Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11

Explanation:

The value of an amount invested at a certain rate of return for certain number of years where  interest compounded annually is known as the future value.

The future value of an investment can be determined using the future value formula. This formula is stated below:

FV = PV × (1+r)^(n)

FV - Future Value , PV- Present Value, r-rate of return, n- number of years

For the first round of investment 15% for 7 years, future value would be:

FV = 14,800 × (1.15)^(7) =   39,368.29  

Second round of investing 17% for 14 year, future value would be

FV = 39,368.29 × (1.17)^(14)= 354,608.11

Future Value =$354,608.11

Value of investment after 21 years = $354,608.11

Your firm has total sales of $22,980, costs of $14,715, and depreciation of $6,045. The tax rate is 34 percent. There are no interest expenses or other income. What is the operating cash flow?

Answers

Answer:

Thus, Operating cash flow for company is $7,510.20.

Explanation:

Total Sales = $22,980

Cost of goods sold = $14,715

Depreciation = $6,045

Profit before tax = Total Sales – Cost of goods sold – Depreciation  

= $22,980 – $14,715 – $6,045

=$2,220

Profit before tax is $2,220

Tax rate = 34%

Net profit = profit before tax × (1 – 34%)

= $1,465.20

Net profit for company is $1,465.20.

Operating cash flow = Net profit + Depreciation

= $1,465.20 + $6,045  

= $7,510.20

Thus, Operating cash flow for company is $7,510.20.

The Atlantic Company sells a product for $150 per unit. The variable cost is $60 per unit, and fixed costs are $270,000. What is the break-even point in sales units?_____________________________________ What is the break-even points in sales units if the company desires a target profit of $36,000?

Answers

Answer:

The break even units are 3000 units and when it desires the profit of $36000 then sales unit is 3400 units.

Explanation:

The selling price of a product (SP) = $150 per unit.

Variable cost (VC) = $60 per unit.

Fixed cost of the company = $270000

Break-even units can be calculated by dividing the fixed cost from the difference in selling price and variable cost.

Break even Units = (fixed cost) / ( SP – VC)

= 270000 / (150-60)

= 3000 units.

Break-even units when a company desires a profit of $36000.

Desired units for sales = (Fixed Cost + Profit)/ Contribution per unit

= (270,000 + 36,000) / (150 - 60)

= 3,400 units

c. $175,000
d. $100,000

Answers

Answer:

1) d. $175,000

2) b. $156,250

Explanation:

1. The computation of net income for 20X9 under the treasury stock method is shown below:-

Net income for 20X9 under the treasury stock method = Janet Operating income + Slider operating income

= $100,000 + $75,000

= $175,000

2. The computation of income assigned to the controlling interest for 20X9 is shown below:-

income assigned to the controlling interest for 20X9 = Janet Operating income + (Slider operating income × Remaining percentage)

= $100,000 + ($75,000 × 75%)

= $100,000 + $56,250

= $156,250

Therefore we have applied the above formulas.
