xplanation:
Factor Company is planning to add a new product to its line. To manufacture this product, the company needs to buy a new machine at a $487,000 cost with an expected four-year life and a $23,000 salvage value. All sales are for cash, and all costs are out-of-pocket, except for depreciation on the new machine. Additional information includes the following:
Expected annual sales of new product $1,910,000
Expected annual costs of new product:
Direct materials 495,000
Direct labor 674,000
Overhead (excluding straight-line depreciation on new machine) 335,000
Selling and administrative expenses 159,000
Income taxes 38%
Required:
1. Compute straight-line depreciation for each year of this new machine's life.
2. Determine expected net income and net cash flow for each year of this machine's life.
3. Compute this machine's payback period, assuming cash flows occur evenly throughout each year.
4. Compute this machine's accounting rate of return, assuming income is earned evenly throughout each year.
5. Compute net present value, using a discount rate of 6% and that assuming that cash flows occur at each year-end.
Answer:
1. $116,000
2. Net Income = $81,220 and Net Cash flow = $247,000
3. The payback period is 1 year and 11 months .
4. 31.85 %
5. $368,881.09
Explanation:
Straight Line Method charges a fixed amount of depreciation expense over the life of an asset.
Depreciation Expense = (Cost - Residual Value) / Estimated Useful Life
= ($487,000 - $23,000) / 4
= $116,000
Net Income = Sales - Expenses
Sales $1,910,000
Less Expenses :
Direct materials ($495,000)
Direct labor ($674,000)
Overhead ( $335,000 + $116,000) ($451,000)
Selling and administrative expenses ($159,000)
Operating Income before tax $131,000
Income tax at 38% ($49,780)
Net Income $81,220
Net Cash Flow Calculation :
Operating Income before tax $131,000
Add Depreciation Expense $116,000
Net Cash flow $247,000
Payback period
Payback period = Year 1 + Year 2
$487,000 = $247,000 + $240,000 / $247,000 × 12
= 1 year, 11 months
Therefore, the payback period is 1 year and 11 months .
Accounting Rate of Return = Average Profits / Average Investment × 100
Where, Average Profits = Sum of Profits ÷ Number of Years
= ($81,220 × 4) ÷ 4
= $81,220
and Average Investment = (Initial Investment + Scrape Value) ÷ 2
= ($487,000 + $23,000) ÷ 2
= $255,000
Therefore, Accounting Rate of Return = $81,220 / $255,000 × 100
= 31.85 %

In a recent year Sunland Company had net income of $360000, interest expense of $72000, and a times interest earned of 10. What was Sunland Company’s income before taxes for the year? $792000 $720000 $648000 None of these answer choices are correct.
Answer:
$648,000
Explanation:
Given that;
Net income = $360,000
Interest expense = $72,000
Times interest earned = 10
Net Income + Interest expense + Tax expense ÷ Interest expense = Times interest earned.
($360,000 + $72,000 + Tax expense) /$72,000 = 10
Tax expense = $288,000
Therefore;
Sunderland's income before taxes for the year
= Net income + Tax expense
= $360,000 + $288,000
= $648,000
Piedmont Company segments its business into two regions—North and South. The company prepared the contribution format segmented income statement as shown: Total Company North South Sales $ 675,000 $ 450,000 $ 225,000 Variable expenses 405,000 315,000 90,000 Contribution margin 270,000 135,000 135,000 Traceable fixed expenses 150,000 75,000 75,000 Segment margin 120,000 $ 60,000 $ 60,000 Common fixed expenses 65,000 Net operating income $ 55,000 Required: 1. Compute the companywide break-even point in dollar sales. 2. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region. 3. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.
Answer:
Piedmont Company
1. Computation of the Companywide break-even point:
Break-even point = Fixed Cost/Contribution per margin
= $215,000/$27 = 7,963 units
2. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region:
Break-even point in dollar sales = Fixed Costs/Contribution margin percentage
= $107,500/30% = $358,333
3. Computation of the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region:
= $107,500/60% = $179,1667
Explanation:
a) Data
Piedmont Company Contribution format segmented income statement as shown:
Total Company North South
Sales $ 675,000 $ 450,000 $ 225,000
Variable expenses 405,000 315,000 90,000
Contribution margin 270,000 135,000 135,000
Traceable fixed expenses 150,000 75,000 75,000
Segment margin 120,000 $ 60,000 $ 60,000
Common fixed expenses 65,000 32,500 32,500
Net operating income $ 55,000 $27,500 $27,500
NB: The common fixed expenses must be shared in some way to calculate the break-even points.
b) Total fixed costs:
Company-wide = $215,000 ($150,000 + 65,000)
North = $107,500 ($75,000 + 32,500)
South = $107,500 ($75,000 + 32,500)
c) We assume that the sales unit of 5,000 each for the two regions. Total units = 10,000
d) Contribution per margin:
Company-wide = $270,000/10,000 = $27
North = $135,000/5,000 = $27
South = $135,000/5,000 = $27
e) Contribution margin percentage:
= Contribution/Sales x 100
Company-wide = $270,000/$675,000 x 100 = 40%
North = $135,000/$450,000 x 100 = 30%
South = $135,000/$225,000 x 100 = 60%
f) The break-even point is the quantity of sales that must be achieved for the fixed costs to be fully covered and no profit or loss is recorded. It is the point at which fixed costs are equal to the contribution. The contribution is the difference between the sales value and the variable costs.
If the marginal propensity to consume (mpc) is 0.9, the spending multiplier is _____, the tax multiplier is ______, and the balanced budget multiplier is _______, respectively.
Answer:
If the marginal propensity to consume (mpc) is 0.9, the spending multiplier is 10, the tax multiplier is -9, and the balanced budget multiplier is 1, respectively.
Explanation:
These can be calculated as follows:
a) Calculation of spending multiplier
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the spending multiplier as follows:
Spending multiplier = 1 / (1 - mpc)
Since mpc = 0.9, we have:
Spending multiplier = 1 / (1 - mpc) = 1 / (1 - 0.9) = 1 / 0.1 = 10
b) Calculation of tax multiplier
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the tax multiplier as follows:
Tax multiplier = -mpc / mps
Note that the tax multiplier as given above is negative because increase in tax by the government makes the multiplier to work in reverse since the money is leaving the circular flow.
Since what is not consumed is saved, we have:
mps = 1 - mpc = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1
Therefore,
Tax multiplier = -0.9 / 0.1 = -9
c) Calculation of balanced budget multiplier
To calculate this, we use the formula for calculating the balanced budget multiplier as follows:
Balanced budget multiplier = Spending multiplier + Tax multiplier = 10 + (-9) = 10 - 9 = 1
Note that balanced budget multiplier is always equal to 1 as obtained above.
Conclusion
Therefore, if the marginal propensity to consume (mpc) is 0.9, the spending multiplier is 10, the tax multiplier is -9, and the balanced budget multiplier is 1, respectively.
Coolibah Holdings is expected to pay dividends of $ 1.10 every six months for the next three years. If the current price of Coolibah stock is $ 22.00, and Coolibah's equity cost of capital is 14%, what price would you expect Coolibah's stock to sell for at the end of three years?
Answer:
$25.15
Explanation:
The price the stock would be sold at the end of the three-year holding period can be computed using excel FV formula stated below:
=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)
rate is the semiannual cost of capital i.e 14%/2=7%
nper is the number of dividend payments over three-year period which is 6
pmt is the amount of semiannual dividend payment
pv is the current stock price
=fv(7%,6,1.1,-22)=$25.15

The smaller the required reserve ratio the larger the simple deposit multiplier. Do you agree or disagree with this statement. Explain your answer.
Answer:
Agree
Explanation:
A deposit multiplier is maximum amount of money that can be created for each unit of reserve. It is key requirement for maintaining economy's basic money supply. The simple deposit multiplier is 1 / rr * change in R. Deposit multiplier is the inverse of reserve ratio. The higher the reserve ratio the lesser will be the deposit multiplier. Reserve ratio is the minimum amount of money that must be kept in the deposit.
2. [5 pts] Consider the following events: Scientists reveal that eating oranges decreases the risk of diabetes, and at the same time, farmers use a new fertilizer that makes orange trees produce more oranges. Illustrate and explain what effect these changes have on the equilibrium price and quantity of oranges.
Answer:
there would be a rise in equilibrium quantity and an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price
Explanation:
as a result of the scientists revelation, the demand for oranges would increase and so would the price.
as a result of the new fertilisers been used, the supply of oranges would rise and price would fall.
taking these two occurrences together, there would be a rise in equilibrium quantity and an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price
A bond has a $1,000 par value, 20 years to maturity, and pays a coupon of 5.5% per year, annually. The bond is callable in ten years at $1,075. If the bond’s yield to maturity is 5.89% per year, what is its yield to call? Question 13 options: A) 5.87% B) 6.57% C) 6.11% D) 6.43% E) 6.68%
Answer:
6.68% , option E is correct
Explanation:
The price of the bond can be computed using the below formula for bond price calculation:
bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n)/r
face value is $1000
r is the yield to maturity which is 5.89%
coupon=face value*coupon rate=1000*5.5%=55
n is the number of coupons the bond would pay which is 11 coupons over 20 years
bond price=1000/(1+5.89%)^20+55*(1-(1+5.89%)^-20)/5.89%
bond price=$ 954.87
The yield on the call can be determined using excel rate function as further explained below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of coupons the bond would pay before being called in ten years' time i.e 10 coupons
pmt is the is the amount of annual coupon=$1000*5.5%=$55
pv is the current price of $954.87
fv is the call price which is $1,075
=rate(10,55,-954.87,1075)=6.68%

At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 24,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $36,000 Direct labor 8,640 Total $44,640 The standard materials price is $0.6 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $9 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: Actual direct materials $33,400 Actual direct labor 8,000 Total $41,400 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 21,600 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. Direct materials quantity variance $ -3,600 Unfavorable Direct labor time variance $ -864 Unfavorable Feedback
Answer:
Direct material quantity variance = $1,000
Direct labor time variance = $224
Explanation:
Calculation of the direct materials quantity
Direct material quantity variance = Actual quantity at standard price - Standard Quantity at standard price
Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - (($36,000/24,000) * 21,600
Direct material quantity variance = $$33,400 - ($1.5 * $21,600)
Direct material quantity variance = $33,400 - $32,400
Direct material quantity variance = $1,000
Calculation of direct labor time variances
Direct labor time variance = Actual labor time at standard cost - Standard labor time at standard cost
Direct labor time variance = $8,000- (($8,640/24,000) * $21,600
Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - (0.36) * $21,600
Direct labor time variance = $8,000 - $7,776
Direct labor time variance = $224

B. February 12.
Explanation:
The most important dates for dividends at Georia are the declaration date, The holder-of-record date, and the payment date. The declaration date is the date that the company's directors decide to announce that dividend will be paid to stockholders of record. The holder-of-record date is the date that a stockholders will know if he or she will receive dividend for that period, because only holders of record are paid dividends. If a stockholder's share is not registered before that date, then the stockholder is not entitled to dividends. The last date is, of course, the payment date. However, in accounting for the dividend transaction, only two dates are important: the declaration date and the payment date.

B. If Job 400 includes 60 units, what is the unit product cost for this job?
C. If Moody uses a markup percentage of 120% of its total manufacturing cost, then what selling price per unit would it have established for Job 400?
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Machine-hours required to support estimated production 155,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 653,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 4.70
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= (653,000/155,000) + 4.7
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $8.91 per machine hour
Job 400:
Direct materials $ 390
Direct labor cost $ 220
Machine-hours used 37
Total cost= 390 + 220 + 37*8.91
Total cost= $939.67
Unitary cost= 939.67/60= $15.62
Finally, the selling price for Job 400:
Selling price per unit= 15.62*1.2= $18.74

You are on a team project that is running behind schedule. You and your project team are 3 months into an 8-month project.
There is a deficiency in both time management and money management.
For the project to be 3 months old, out of 8 months, then it's already in the execution stage.
Being behind schedule by 2.5 weeks implies that you have spent 2.5 weeks extra, achieving what you ought to achieve without or before the extra time. Discuss with your project team and make them more active in delivering their tasks. Time is crucial. Time is money also.
You're 15% over budget, hence you've spent 15% more than you should. Check the vendors of items and tools used in the project. You might have to change them if their products are too costly. Ensure proper accounting also. Do not disburse funds without the consultation and approval of team members who are finance experts.
In all, not more than 2 days or thereabout should be used in making these adjustments because time and money are equally pertinent!
The following cost behavior patterns describe anticipated manufacturing costs for 2013: raw material, $8.20/unit; direct labor, $11.20/unit; and manufacturing overhead, $386,400 + $9.20/unit. Required: If anticipated production for 2013 is 42,000 units, calculate the u
Answer:
Note: The missing part of the question is "using variable costing and absorption costing. Explain the difference"
Solution
According to variable costing, the unit cost based was
= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.20
= $28.6
According to absorption costing,
Total Manufacturing costs= Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead
= $8.20 + $11.20 + ($386,400/42,000 units) + $9.20
= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.2 + $9.2
= $37.8
The difference between the variable costing and the absorption cost is because the product costing using variable costing method only includes variable costs.

Hampton Corporation has a beta of 1.3 and a marginal tax rate of 34%. The expected return on the market is 11% and the risk-free interest rate is 4%. Estimate the firm’s cost of internal equity.
Answer: 13.1%
Explanation:
Using the Capital Asset Pricing Model, the expected return is;
Expected Return = Risk Free rate + beta(expected return - risk free rate)

= 4% + 9.1%
Expected Return = 13.1%
you need to have $31,750 in 11 years. You can earn an annual interest rate of 6 percent for the first 6 years, and 6.6 percent for the next 5 years. How much do you have to deposit today?
Answer:
Initial deposit= $16,260.08
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future value= $31,750 in 11 years.
You can earn an annual interest rate of 6 percent for the first 6 years, and 6.6 percent for the next 5 years.
To calculate the initial deposit, we need to use the following formula for each interest rate:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
Last 5 years:
PV= 31,750/(1.066^5)= 23,065.23
First 6 years:
PV= 23,065.23/1.06^6= $16,260.08

Answer: $44,000
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Cash dividends declared for the year = $40,000
Cash dividends payable at the beginning of the year = $17,000
Cash dividends payable at the end of the year = $13,000
Therefore, the amount of cash paid for dividends was:
= $40,000 + $17,000 - $13,000
= $57,000 - $13,000
= $44,000
Moraine, Inc., has an issue of preferred stock outstanding that pays a 3.50 dividend in perpetuity. If this issue currently sells for 85 per share, what is the required return
Answer:
4.12%
Explanation:
Given that:
Payment of dividend per year = $3.50
Issue price of preferred stock = $85
(Note: Assumed that $85 is the face value of the preferred stock)
Hence, the formula for Required return = Dividend per year/ face value of the stock
= $3.5/ $85 = 0.0411764705
Then converting the answer to percentage, we have
0.0411764705 * 100% = 4.1764705
Therefore, the required return is = 4.12% (approximately)
