Rambo-Conduit Corporation manufactures plastic conduit that is used in the cable industry. A conduit is a tube that encircles and protects the underground cable. In the process of making the plastic conduit, called extrusion, the melted plastic (resin) is pressed through a die to form a tube. Scrap is produced in this process. Information from the cost of production reports for three months is as follows, assuming that inventory remains constant:
May June July
Resin pounds input into the process 470,000 700000 650,000
Price per pound x81.50 x81.50 x81.50
Plastic material costs 493,000 6,40,000 6,77,000
Conversion costs 80,000 120,000 115000
Conduit output 800,000 1200,000 1130,000
from the process (feet)
Assuming that there is one-half pound of resin per foot of the finished product, determine the resin materials cost per foot of finished product for June.
a. $0.53
b. $0.60
c. $0.54
d. None of these choices are correct.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: a. $0.53

Explanation:

Material Cost per foot of finished product = Material Cost/ Number of feet produced in June

Plastic Material Cost in June= $640,000

Number of Feet produced in June = 1,200,000

Material cost per foot of finished product

= 640,000/ 1,200,000

= $0.53

______has an absolute advantage in the production of alfalfa, and_______ has an absolute advantage in the production of barley. Charles's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is ________bushels of alfalfa, whereas Dina's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is bushels of alfalfa. Because Charles has a opportunity cost of producing barley than Dina, ________has a comparative advantage in the production of barley, and has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa

Answers

Answer:

The person with Absolute advantage is the one that produces more of a good than the other.

Dina has an absolute advantage in the production of alfalfa, and Charles has an absolute advantage in the production of barley.

The person with Comparative Advantage is the person who produces something at a lower opportunity cost.

Charles Opportunity Costs

Producing Alfalfa gives 12 bushels per acre instead of 6 bushels for Barley.

Producing 1 Alfalfa means 6/12 = 0.5 bushels Barley is given up

Producing 1 bushel of Barley means 12/6 = 2 bushels Alfalfa is given up.

Dina Opportunity Costs

Producing Alfalfa gives 15 bushels per acre instead of 5 bushels for Barley.

Producing 1 Alfalfa means 5/15 = 0.33 bushels of Barley is given up

Producing 1 bushel of Barley means 15/5 = 3 bushels of Alfalfa is given up.

Charles's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is 2 bushels of alfalfa, whereas Dina's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is 3 bushels of alfalfa. Because Charles has lower a opportunity cost of producing barley than Dina, Charlie has a comparative advantage in the production of barley, and Dina has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa.

Answer:

The person with Absolute advantage is the one that produces more of a good than the other. Dina has an absolute advantage in the production of alfalfa, and Charles has an absolute advantage in the production of barley. The person with Comparative Advantage is the person who produces something at a lower opportunity cost.

Cost of money Four fundamental factors affect the cost of money: (1) the return that borrowers expect to earn on their investments, (2) the preference of savers to spend their income in the current period rather than delay their consumption until some future period, (3) the risks associated with the investment, and (4) expected inflation. Consider the following statements that address these factors, and indicate which you think are true.
Statement 1: All things being equal, rational savers and investors prefer to invest in an asset that provides a 12% return rather than one that provides an 8% return.
Statement 2: All things being equal, savers and investors prefer more risk to less risk and prefer lower risk premiums on projects exhibiting higher levels of risk.
Statement 3: On average and everything else held constant, borrowers will attempt to pay the maximum possible cash flows that will motivate savers and investors to participate in the transaction.
Statement 4: All things being equal, savers and investors expect to receive some amount of maturity premium as compensation for their deferred consumption.
The true statements are:______.
a. 1, 2, and 3.
b. 1 and 3.
c. 2 and 4.
d. 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Answers

Answer:

b. 1 and 3.

Explanation:

The investors are of two types either they are risk averse or risk seekers. Risk averse are those who are not willing to take risks for their investments. They accept lower returns but they are not ready to take more risks than their appetite. Risk seekers are those who demand more risk for more returns. The risks level is so high that even their whole investments can go away but they take this risk to achieve high extra ordinary returns.

Your boss suggests that a​ Cobb-Douglas production function could be a good representation of that​ country's income. Is your boss​ right?

a. ​Yes, you can tell by the way the income shares for each factor move in opposite directions over time.
b. ​No, if it were a​ Cobb-Douglas production​ function, the income shares would be constant over time.
c. The production function cannot be determined without knowing how real GDP changed over time.
d. ​No, if it were a​ Cobb-Douglas production​ function, the income shares would change in the same direction over time.

Answers

Answer: b. ​No, if it were a​ Cobb-Douglas production​ function, the income shares would be constant over time.

Explanation:

Cobb–Douglas production function is used to show the technological relationship that takes place between the inputs and output that the inputs on the production process can produce.

In this scenario, we are informed that the boss suggests that a Cobb-Douglas production function could be a good representation of that country's income. In this case, the answer is No. The Boss is wrong because if it was to be a Cobb-Douglas production function , then the income share would be constant over time.

In this case, we can see that there is fluctuation of the factor shares as they're not constant but rather changes with time.

Technology Accessories Inc. is a designer, manufacturer, and distributor of accessories for consumer electronic products. Early in 20Y3, the company began production of a leather cover for tablet computers, called the iLeather. The cover is made of stitched leather with a velvet interior and fits snugly around most tablet computers. In January, $750,000 was spent on developing marketing and advertising materials. For the first six months of 20Y3, the company spent an additional $1,400,000 promoting the iLeather. The product was ready for manufacture on January 21, 20Y3. Technology Accessories Inc. uses a job order cost system to accumulate costs for the iLeather. Direct materials unit costs for the iLeather are as follows:________.Leather $10.00
Velvet 5.00
Packaging 0.40
Total $15.40
The actual production process for the iLeather is fairly straightforward. First, leather is brought to a cutting and stitching machine. The machine cuts the leather and stitches an exterior edge into the product. The machine requires one hour per 125 iLeathers.
After the iLeather is cut and stitched, it is brought to assembly, where assembly personnel affix the velvet interior and pack the iLeather for shipping. The direct labor cost for this work is $0.50 per unit. The completed packages are then sold to retail outlets through a sales force. The sales force is compensated by a 20% commission on the wholesale price for all sales. Total completed production was 500,000 units during the year. Other information is as follows:
Number of iLeather units sold in 20Y3 460,000
Wholesale price per unit $40
Factory overhead cost is applied to jobs at the rate of $1,250 per machine hour. An additional 22,000 cut and stitched iLeathers were waiting to be assembled on December 31, 20Y3.
Instructions
1. Prepare an annual income statement for the iLeather product, including supporting calculations, from the information provided.
2. Determine the balances in the finished goods and work in process inventories for the iLeather product on December 31, 20Y3.

Answers

Answer:

1. Net income = $656,000

2. Balance in finished goods inventories is $1,036,000; and balance in work in progress inventories is $558,800.

Explanation:

1. Prepare an annual income statement for the iLeather product, including supporting calculations, from the information provided.

Note: See the attach excel file for the annual income statement.

In the excel file, the following calculations are use:

Workings:

w.1: Units of ending finished goods = Units of finished goods produced - Units of finished goods sold = 500,000 - 460,000 = 40,000

w.2: Sales revenue = Selling price per unit * Unit of finished goods sold = $40 * 460,000 = $18,400,000

w.3: Overhead cost per unit = Cost per machine hour / Number of iLeather per machine hour = $1,250 / 125 = $10

w.4: Cost of goods manufactured per unit = Material cost per unit + Direct labor cost per unit + Overheads per unit = 15.4 + 0.5 + 10 = $25.90

w.5: Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods manufactured per unit * Units of finished goods sold = $25.90 * 460,000 = $11,914,000

w.6: Salespersons commission = Percentage of commission * Sales revenue = 20% * $18,400,000 = $3,680,000

2. Determine the balances in the finished goods and work in process inventories for the iLeather product on December 31, 20Y3.  

Balance in finished goods inventories = Unit of ending finished goods * Cost of goods manufactured per unit = 40,000 * $25.90 = $1,036,000

Balance in work in progress inventories = Units of work in progress * (Material cost + Overhead per unit) = 22,000 * (15.4 + $10) = 22,000 * 25.4 = $558,800

Therefore, balance in finished goods inventories is $1,036,000; and balance in work in progress inventories is $558,800.

1. The preparation of the annual income statement for the iLeather product is as follows:

Technology Accessories Inc.

Income Statement for the iLeather Product

For the Year ended December 31, 20Y3

Sales revenue                $18,400,000

Cost of goods sold            11,914,000

Gross profit                     $6,486,000

Expenses:

Marketing and advertising  750,000

Sales promotion                1,400,000

Sales commission            3,680,000

Total expenses              $5,830,000

Net operating income    $656,000

2. The balances in the finished goods and work in process inventories on December 31, 20Y3 are as follows:

Finished goods inventory = $1,036,000

Work in process inventory =  $558,800

Data and Calculations:

Marketing and advertising materials = $750,000

Product promotion costs = $1,400,000

Total direct materials cost per unit = $15.40

Total direct labor cost per unit = $0.50

Production units = 500,000 units

Units sold = 460,000 units

Finished goods inventory = 40,000 units (500,000 - 460,000)

Machine hours used = 4,000 hours (500,000/125)

Factory overhead costs = $5,000,000 ($1,250 x 4,000).

Work in process inventory costs:

Factory overhead costs = $220,000 (22,000/125 x $1,250).

Direct materials = $338,800 ($15.40 x 22,000)

The total work in process inventory costs = $558,800 ($220,000 + $338,800)

Wholesale price per unit = $40

Sales revenue = $18,400,000 ($40 x 460,000)

Sales commission = 20% of wholesale price or $8 per unit ($40 x 20%)

The total sales commission = $3,680,000 ($8 x 460,000).

Production costs:

Direct materials costs = $7,700,000 ($15.40 x 500,000)

Direct labor costs = $250,000 ($0.50 x 500,000)

Factory overhead costs = $5,000,000

Total production costs = $12,950,000

Cost per unit = $25.90 ($12,950,000/500,000)

Finished goods inventory costs = $1,036,000 ($25.90 x 40,000)

Cost of goods sold = $11,914,000 ($25.90 x 460,000)

Builder Products, Inc., uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. It manufactures a caulking compound that goes through three processing stages prior to completion. Information on work in the first department, Cooking, is given below for May:

Production data:

Pounds in process, May 1; materials 100% complete; conversion 80% complete 10,000
Pounds started into production during May 100,000
Pounds completed and transferred out _____
Pounds in process, May 31; materials 70% complete; conversion 30% complete 50,000
Cost data:
Work in process inventory, May 1:
Materials cost $152,300
Conversion cost $63,300
Cost added during May:
Materials cost $791,450
Conversion cost $348,100

Required:

a. Compute the equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for May.
b. Compute the cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for May.
c. Compute the cost of ending work in process inventory for materials, conversion, and in total for May.
d. Compute the cost of units transferred out to the next department for materials, conversion, and in total for May.
e. Prepare a cost reconciliation report for May.

Answers

Answer:

a. Equivalent units

Materials = Beginning inventory + Units started and completed + Ending Inventory

Units started and completed = Pounds started into production - Pounds in process

= 100,000 - 50,000 = 50,000

= 10,000 + 50,000 + (70% * 50,000)

= 95,000

Conversion

= 10,000 + 50,000 + (30% * 50,000)

= 75,000

b. Material Cost per equivalent unit = Material cost/ Equivalent material units

= (Beginning material cost + Cost during May) / 95,000

= (152,300 + 791,450)/95,000

= $9.93

Conversion cost per Equi unit = Conversion cost/ Equivalent Conversion units

= (63,300 + 348,100)/75,000

= $5.49

c. Cost of Ending WIP Material = Material ending WIP * Cost per equivalent unit

= (70% * 50,000) * 9.93

= $‭347,550‬

Cost of Ending WIP Conversion = Conversion ending WIP * Cost per equivalent unit

= (30% * 50,000) * 5.49

= $‭82,350‬

Total = ‭347,550‬ + 82,350‬ = $‭429,900‬

d. Units completed and transferred out = Beginning WIP inventory + Units started during May - Ending inventory

= 10,000 + 100,000 - 50,000

= 60,000

Materials cost transferred

= 60,000 *9.93

= $‭595,800‬

Conversion Cost transferred

= 60,000 * 5.49

= $‭329,400‬

Total = 595,800‬ + 329,400‬ = $‭925,200‬

e.

Beginning WIP inventory(152,300 + 63,300)                            $‭215,600‬  

Current costs (791,450 + 348,100)                                             $‭1,139,550‬  

Total costs                                                                                   $‭1,355,150‬  

Cost accounted:    

Cost of units completed and transferred                               $‭925,200  

Cost of ending work in process                                                $‭429,900‬

Kirk wants to get an FHA loan. Which of the following is Kirk himself not likely to do during the application process?

Answers

Answer:

C. Find a lender who is willing to do FHA-loans.

Explanation:

The Federal Housing Administration loan program was instituted by the United States government to make owning homes by the citizens easier. To be qualified, an applicant's minimum credit score should be 500 with a downpayment of 3.5% with a credit score of 580 and 10% for a credit score which is between 500 to 579. He must be willing to do, mortgage insurance, and the house which he wishes to own must meet the FHA's requirements.

However, it does not depend on him to find a lender willing to do FHA loans, rather, the lender must be approved by the Federal Housing Administration.  He can only obtain his loan from an FHA-approved lending financial institution.      

The Federal Housing Administration loan program was established by the US government to make homeownership more accessible to individuals.

To be considered, an applicant's credit score must be at least 500, with a downpayment of 3.5 percent for a credit score of 580 and 10% for a credit score of 500 to 579.

He must be ready to pay for mortgage insurance, and the home he seeks to purchase must fulfill FHA guidelines.

However, finding a lender ready to offer FHA loans is not his responsibility; rather, the lender must be approved by the Federal Housing Administration. Only an FHA-approved lending financial institution can provide him with a loan.

So, Option C is correct.

The other Options are incorrect as

Option A is incorrect as finding a home for an FHA loan is the most important thing so this is not the correct option.

Option B is incorrect as visiting an FHA office and ordering an appraisal on the home is also one of the important steps for an FHA loan.

Option D is incorrect as paying mortgage insurance lowers the risk to the lender making a loan to you.

Thus Option C is correct as this is the only option that is not necessary for an FHA loan.

Universal Mines Inc. operates three mines in West Virginia. The ore from each mine is separated into two grades before it is shipped. The daily production capacities of the three mines, as well as their daily operating costs, are as follows: c/day Mine High-grade Ore, Low-grade Ore, Operating Cost Tons/day Tons/day in $/day 20,000 22,000 18,000 Mine 11 Mine III Universal has committed itself to deliver 54 tons of high-grade order and 65 tons of low-grade ore by the end of the week. Universal can run its mines seven days a week if required. Determine the number of days each mine should be operated during the upcoming week if Universal Mines is to fulfill its commitment at the minimum total cost. Round the answers to two decimal places.
a. The number of days Mine I should operate = _________days
b. The number of days Mine Il should operate = _________days
c. The number of days Mine III should operate = _________days
d. The total cost of the operation for next week = $ ________

Answers

Answer:

this is a cost minimization problem, but it is missing some numbers, so I looked for similar questions (see attached PDF):

minimization equation = 20x₁ + 22x₂ + 18x₃ (costs per ton)

where:

x₁ = mine I

x₂ = mine II

x₃ = mine III

the constraints are:

4x₁ + 6x₂ + x₃ ≥ 54 (high grade ore)

4x₁ + 4x₂ + 6x₃ ≥ 65 (low grade ore)

x₁, x₂, x₃ ≤ 7 (only 7 days per week)  

using solver, the optimal solution is

2x₁, 7x₂, and 5x₃

a. The number of days Mine I should operate = 2 days

b. The number of days Mine Il should operate = 7 days

c. The number of days Mine III should operate = 5 days

d. The total cost of the operation for next week = $284,000

You have a total of $289,416 in your retirement savings. You want to withdraw $2,500 from your account at the end of every month for living expenses and expect to earn 4.6 percent per year on your money, compounded monthly. How long will it be until you run out of money

Answers

Answer:

You will be able to withdraw $2,500 for 153 months or 12 years, 9 months. The last withdrawal (154th withdrawal) will be smaller, around $782 only.

Explanation:

We can use the present value of an ordinary annuity formula to determine how long it will take to empty the account.

present value of annuity = payment x [1 - 1/(1 + i)ⁿ] / i

289,416 = 2,500 x [1 - 1/(1 + 0.00383333)ⁿ] / 0.00383333

289,416 / 2,500 = [1 - 1/(1 + 0.00383333)ⁿ] / 0.00383333

115.7664 = [1 - 1/(1 + 0.00383333)ⁿ] / 0.00383333

115.7664 x 0.00383333 = 1 - 1/1.00383333ⁿ

0.443770814 = 1 - 1/1.00383333ⁿ

1/1.00383333ⁿ = 1 - 0.443770814

1/1.00383333ⁿ = 0.556229185

1 / 0.556229185 = 1.00383333ⁿ

1.797820081 = 1.00383333ⁿ

n = log 1.797820081 / log 1.00383333 = 0.254746227 / 0.001661611345 = 153.3128 months

You will be able to withdraw $2,500 for 153 months or 12 years, 9 months. The last withdrawal will be smaller, around $782 only.

Lease payments will be made January 1 each year of the lease. Incremental costs of consummating the lease transaction incurred by the lessor were $19,500.

Required:
What is the effect of the lease on the lessor's earnings during the first year (ignore taxes)?

Answers

Answer:

$139,644

Explanation:

Calculation for the effect of the lease on the lessor's earnings during the first year

Effect on lessor's pretax earnings

Sales revenue 690,000

Less Cost of goods sold(575,000)

Less Selling expense(19,500)

Interest revenue 44,144

Income effect $139,644

Calculation for Interest revenue

Interest revenue=(8%*690,000)-(8%*$138,201)

Interest revenue =55,200-11,056

Interest revenue=44,144

Therefore the effect of the lease on the lessor's earnings during the first year will be $139,644

Owens Corporation uses a process costing system. For March, the beginning work in process inventory consisted of 60,000 units that were 60% complete with respect to processing. The ending work in process inventory for the month consisted of units that were 20% complete with respect to processing. A summary of unit and cost data for the month follows:
Units Processing Cost
Work-in-process inventory, March 1 60,000 $ 35,000
Units started into production and costs incurred during the month 190,000 $ 700,000
Units completed and transferred out 200,000
Assuming that Owens Corporation uses the FIFO method, which of the following is closest to the cost per equivalent unit for processing cost for March?
A) $3.23
B) $3.98
C) $4.02
D) $4.22

Answers

Answer:

C) $4.02

Explanation:

The computation of cost per equivalent unit for processing cost for March is shown below:-

As we know that

Beginning work in process inventory units + Units started into production  = Ending work in process inventory units + Units completed and transferred out

60,000 + 190,000 = Units in ending work in process inventory + 200,000

Units in ending work in process inventory is

= 60,000 + 190,000 - 200,000

= 50,000

To complete the beginning work in process inventory:-      

Processing:                                                     24,000

60,000 units ×(100% - 60%) a

Units started and completed                          140,000

(200,000 − 60,000) b

Ending work in process inventory Processing:

50,000 units × 20% c                                      10,000

Equivalent units of production                        174,000

Cost added throughout the period e            7,00,000

Equivalent units of production f                     174,000

Cost per equivalent unit e ÷ f                             $4.02

It is common for supermarkets to carry both generic (store-label) and brand-name (producer-label) varieties of sugar and other products. Many consumers view these products as perfect substitutes, meaning that consumers are always willing to substitute a constant proportion of the store brand for the producer brand. Consider a consumer who is always willing to substitute four pounds of a generic store-brand sugar for two pounds of a brand-name sugar. Do these preferences exhibit a diminishing marginal rate of substitution between store-brand and producer-brand sugar.

Required:
a. Do these preferences exhibit a diminishing marginal rate of substitution? Assume that this consumer has $24 of income to spend on sugar, and the price of store-brand sugar is $1 per pound and the price of producer-brand sugar is $3 per pound.
b. How much of each type of sugar will be purchased?
c. How would your answer change if the price of store-brand sugar was $2 per pound and the price of producer-brand sugar was $3 per pound?

Answers

Answer:

a. Do these preferences exhibit a diminishing marginal rate of substitution?

no, because the consumer is actually purchasing a higher amount of goods, the only difference is that they are paying a lower price.

Assume that this consumer has $24 of income to spend on sugar, and the price of store-brand sugar is $1 per pound and the price of producer-brand sugar is $3 per pound.

The consumer will purchase 24 pounds of price of store sugar simply because the price is much lower, not because he/she wants to consume less. Actually a lower price might result in an increase of consumption.

b. How much of each type of sugar will be purchased?

If the consumer is willing to spend the whole $24 on sugar, he/she will purchase 24 pounds of store brand sugar. The alternative is to buy 8 pounds of producer brand sugar, and that is not a good deal.

c. How would your answer change if the price of store-brand sugar was $2 per pound and the price of producer-brand sugar was $3 per pound?

The consumer would purchase 12 pounds of store brand sugar instead of 24, but he/she will still not purchase producer brand sugar since the difference in price is still too high. Remember that consumers view both types of sugar as perfect substitutes, so they will purchase the brand with the lower price.
