Schrank Company is trying to decide how many units of merchandise to order each month. Company policy is to have 30% of the next month's sales in inventory at the end of each month. Projected sales for August, September, and October are 35,000 units, 25,000 units, and 45,000 units, respectively. How many units must be purchased in September?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

31,000 units

Explanation:

Calculation for how many units must be purchased in September

Using this formula

Purchase = (Percentage of the month's sales in inventory × Projected sales for October + Projected sales for September - (Percentage of the month's sales in inventory ×Projected sales for September)

Let plug in the formula

Purchase =(30%× 45,000) + 25,000 - (30% × 25,000)

Purchase =13,500+25,000 -(7,500)

Purchase =38,500-7,500

Purchase =31,000 Units

Therefore 31,000 units must be purchased in September

UA Hamburger Hamlet (UAHH) places a daily order for its high-volume items (hamburger patties, buns, milk, and so on). UAHH counts its current inventory on hand once per day and phones in its order for delivery 24 hours later. Determine the number of hamburgers UAHH should order for the following conditions:
Average daily demand 600
Standard deviation of demand 100
Desired service probability 99%
Hamburger inventory 800

Answers

Answer:

730 items

Explanation:

The objective of the given information is to determine the number of hamburgers UAHH should order for the following conditions:

Average daily demand 600

Standard deviation of demand 100

Desired service probability 99%

Hamburger inventory 800

The formula for a given order quantity in a fixed period of time can be expressed as :

[tex]q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I[/tex]

where;

[tex]q[/tex] =  order quantity = ???

[tex]\overline d[/tex] = daily demand average = 600

L = lead time in days = 1

T = time taken = 1

z = no of standard deviation = ???

[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = standard deviation of usage in lead time and time taken = ???

I = present inventory level = 800

[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt 2[/tex] × standard deviation of daily demand

[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{2} *100[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = 1.4142 * 100

[tex]\sigma_{L+T}[/tex] = 141.42 items

From the Desired service probability 99% = 0.99; we can deduce the no of standard deviation by using the excel function (=NORMSINV (0.99))

z = 2.33

From [tex]q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I[/tex]

[tex]q =600(1+1)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800[/tex]

[tex]q =600(2)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800[/tex]

[tex]q =1200+329.5086-800[/tex]

q = 729.5086 items

q ≅ 730 items

Therefore; the  number of hamburgers UAHH should order from the following given conditions = 730 items

Suppose that you take $50 in currency out of your pocket and deposit it in your checking account. If the required reserve ratio is 8%, what is the largest amount (in dollars) by which the money supply can increase as a result of your action?

Answers

Answer:

The largest amount (in dollars) by which the money supply can increase as a result of the action is $625.

Explanation:

This is an example of money multiplier.

Money multiplier refers to the maximum amount of money that commercial bank can create or generate with each dollar of reserves.

Reserves or required reserves refer to the amount of money or portion of deposit that the central bank such as the Federal Reserve requires banks to hold and not lend.

In order to determine the largest amount (in dollars) by which the money supply can increase as a result of $50 deposit, money multiplier is used to multiply the $50 deposit.

The formula for the money multiplier is given as follows:

Money multiplier = 1/r

Where;

r = required reserve ratio = 8%, or 0.08.

Therefore, we have:

Money multiplier = 1 / 0.08 = 12.50

Largest amount of increase = Amount of deposit * Money multiplier = $50 * 12.50 = $625.

Therefore, the largest amount (in dollars) by which the money supply can increase as a result of the action is $625.

Answers

Answer:

d. A tax of $18,000

Explanation:

If the price is higher than $525,000 which is his reservation price, the buyer will not buy the good

(1+t) > $525,000 / $510,000

1+t > 1.03

t > 0.03

t > 3%

3% of $510,000 = $15,300. So if the tax is greater than $15,300, the buyer will not buy the good . Hence, the answer is option (D) A tax of $18,000 as this tax is higher than $15,300 while other option are less than $15,300

Mango Company applies overhead based on direct labor costs. For the current year, Mango Company estimated total overhead costs to be $500,000, and direct labor costs to be $250,000. Actual overhead costs for the year totaled $520,000, and actual direct labor costs totaled $280,000. At year-end, the balance in the Factory Overhead account is a:

Answers

Answer:

Under/over applied overhead= $40,000 overallocated

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated overhead= $500,000

Estimated direct labor costs= $250,000

Actual overhead costs for the year totaled $520,000, and actual direct labor costs totaled $280,000.

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 500,000/250,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2 per direct labor cost

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 2*280,000= $560,000

Finally, we can determine the over/under allocation:

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 520,000 - 560,000= $40,000 overallocated

A copy machine acquired on July 1 with a cost of $1,450 has an estimated useful life of four years. Assuming that it will have a residual value of $250, determine the depreciation for the first year by the double-declining-balance method.

Answers

Answer:

Annual depreciation= $300

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchasing price= $1,450

Salvage value= $250

Useful life= 4 years

First, we need to determine the annual depreciation for the whole year using the following formula:

Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]

Annual depreciation= 2*[(1,450 - 250) / 4]

Annual depreciation= $600

Now, for 6 months:

Annual depreciation= (600/12)*6= $300

Answers

Answer:

In Year 2 Preferred Stockholders were paid $6,000 , whilst Common Stockholders were paid $0.  

Explanation:

The Preference Shareholders have preference over the Common Stockholders when it comes to payments of dividends.

Also when the Preference Stocks are cumulative, it means that any dividends in arrears need to be honored before the next dividend distribution.

Preference Stock Dividend is the same per year and is calculated as follows :

Preference Stock Dividend = 7,000 × $10 × 5%

                                             = $3,500

Summary of Dividends Paid are as follows :

Year 1

Preference Stock Dividend Paid = $0

Common Stock Dividend Paid = $0

Preference Stock Dividend in Arrears = $3,500

Year 2

Preference Stock Dividend in Arrears for year 1 paid = $3,500

Preference Stock Dividend Paid for year 2 = $ 2,500

Preference Stock Dividend in Arrears = $1,000

Common Stock Dividend Paid = $0

Conclusion :

In Year 2 Preferred Stockholders were paid $6,000 whilst Common Stockholders were paid nothing.

B) The acceptance is effective when it is received.
C) The offer is invalid because it fails to stipulate the means of acceptance.
D) The acceptance would be effective upon dispatch even if the means of acceptance is unreasonable.

Answers

Answer:

A) The acceptance is effective upon dispatch

Explanation:

In the given scenario an offer was made by Judith using normal letter, she did not state the authorised means by which the acceptance should be made.

If Helga accepts the offer and chooses and means to convey the acceptance, it will be acceptable as there is no specific way stated by Judith.

So when Helga responds by using a normal letter, the acceptance is effective when she dispatches the letter.

If however Judith stated an authorised means of acceptance, Helga would have to comply to make sure her acceptance is valid

In a "perfect world" capital market, how important is a firm's decision to pay dividends versus repurchase shares? Under what conditions would you have a tax preference for share repurchase rather than dividends? Would managers acting in the interests of long-term shareholders be more likely to repurchase shares if they believed the stock to be either undervalued or overvalued?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

A business may use its extra funds to return it to the shareholders, by either paying cash dividends to the company's existing shareholders or by buying back its own shares. Dividends are a profit-share. Dividends are paid out of an enterprise's net profit (PAT).

Now

On the other way, by way of equity buyback plans, a company can use its money to repurchase its assets. A buyback would decrease a company's a number of shares outstanding and significantly increase the long-term earnings per share ( EPS), and cash flow per share.

The decision of a corporation to pay a dividend and repurchase shares is significant as it can use such actions to manage the investors' interests and the corporation's interest.

Although dividend payment provides greater stability for a company's shareholders, the buy back of shares presents a greater level for the company concerned.

Dividends offer the shareholders flexibility by allowing them to make use of the allocated income in whatever way they see fit. Secondly, the dividend benefit for the shareholders is assured.

The buy back of shares from the other hand is also more desirable for taxation purposes. Dividends are taxable although no taxes are required in case of share repurchases till the moment in time when the securities will finally be sold.

Managers serving the interests of shareholders, particularly long-term shareholders, are more likely to purchase shares if they think the shares are undervalued, i.e. trading at a price below its intrinsic value.

It is due to the number of shares outstanding decreases as the securities are bought back and therefore the earnings per share ( EPS) and cash flows per share increase.

These enhancements help push share prices in the second hand market. This implies that the stock price in the secondary market is no longer at a point below its intrinsic value.

This initiative would mean that securities are no longer underpriced in the long term, thereby protecting the interests of long-term investors.

Determine the incremental rate of return (ROR) value of the two alternatives below. Hint: Convert RoR value to a percentage. If the answer is 10%, enter 10. Do not enter 0.01.

Answers

Answer:m Incremental rate of return (ROR) = 0.076 ≈7.6%    

Explanation:

Given that;  

                                               A                            B

First Cost $                            135,000                 185,000

Operating Cost $/year           9,000                    5,200

Salvage value $                      9,000                     10,000

Life, n                                     [infinity ∞]                  [infinity ∞]

As alternatives have infinite life, salvage value will have no effect on calculations

Therefore;

Incremental initial cost (B-A) = 185000 - 135000 = 50000

Incremental annual cost (B-A) = 5200 - 9000 = -3800 (Annual savings)

Present worth of infinite annuity = A / i

Incremental rate of return ROR = 3800 / 50000 = 0.076 ≈7.6%

Assume a competitive firm faces a market price of $60, a cost curve of C = 0.004q^3 + 30q + 1000, and a marginal cost of curve of: MC = 0.009q^2 + 25.

a. The firm's profit maximizing output level (to the nearest tenth) is ___units, and the profit (to the nearest penny) at this output level is $____.
b. This will cause the market supply to (shift right/shift left). This will continue until the price is equal to the minimum average cost of $____.

Answers

Answer:

a) q = $62.36

b) As the profit level is NEGATIVE ( π = - 99.21 ), this will cause the market supply to shift left. This will continue until the price is equal to the minimum average cost of $60.

Explanation:

Given that; the market price P = $60

The cost curve is C = 0.004q³ + 30q + 1000

The marginal cost of curve of MC = 0.009q² + 25

We know that the condition for the profit maximizing level of output is MC=P

∴ 0.009q² + 25 = 60

0.009q² = 35

q² = 35 / 0.009

q² = 3888.88888

q = √3888.88888

q = $62.36

Now we calculate profit at the equilibrium output

π = TR -TC

π = ( P × Q ) - TC

we know TC = 0.004q³ + 30q + 1000

now we substitute

so π = ( 60 × 62.36 ) - { 0.004(62.36)³ + 30(62.36) + 1000

= 3741.6 - ( 970.01 + 1870.8 + 1000

= 3741.6 - 3840.81

π = - 99.21

As the profit level is NEGATIVE, the supply curve shifts left

Average cost is the cost per unit of output.

Average Cost = TC / q

Average Cost = (0.004q³ + 30q + 1000) / q

Average Cost = 0.004q² + 30 + 1000/q

Now equate the derivative of AC with zero

i.e  ΔAC/Δq = 0

Δ/Δd{ 0.004q² + 30 + 1000/q } = 0

0.008q - 1000/q² = 0

0.008q = 1000/q²

0.008q³ = 1000

q³ = 125000

q = ∛125000

q = 50

Average cost at this point will be

AC = 0.004q² + 30 + 1000/q

= 0.004 (50)² + 30 + 1000/50

= 10 + 30 + 20

= $60

As the profit level is NEGATIVE ( π = - 99.21 ), this will cause the market supply to shift left. This will continue until the price is equal to the minimum average cost of $60.
