Net Income                                                             $87,750

2.Computation of Contribution Margin per unit and Contribution Margin Ratio:

a) Contribution Margin per unit

= Contribution Margin divided by Units sold

= $540,000/4,500

= $120 per unit

b) Contribution Margin Ratio

= Contribution per unit/Selling price * 100

= $120/$300 * 100

= 40%

3. For each dollar of sales, contribution per dollar

= 40% of $1

= $0.40

Explanation:

a) Data:

Sales = 4,500 drums

Selling price = $300 each

Sales Revenue = 4,500 x $300 = $1,350,000

Variable production costs:

 Plastic for casing                  $121,500  

 Drum stands                          162,000

Wages of assembly workers  414,000

Total variable prodn. costs $697,500

Variable selling costs :

Sales commissions                 112,500

Total variable costs            $810,000

Fixed manufacturing costs:

Taxes on factory                              15,000

Factory maintenance                      30,000

Factory machinery depreciation    90,000

Total Manufacturing overhead $135,000

Fixed selling and administrative costs :

Lease of equipment for sales staff         30,000

Accounting staff salaries                         80,000

Administrative management salaries   160,000

Total fixed selling and admin. costs $270,000

Income Tax Rate = 35%

b) Tight Drums Company's contribution margin income statement is a financial statement that separates all the variable costs from the fixed costs.  The difference between Tight Drums' Sales Revenue of $1,350,00 and the Total Variable Costs of $810,000 is called the Contribution Margin.

The Contribution margin of $540,000 shows how much of the sales revenue is left to cover the fixed costs totalling $405,000 and generate operating income, after deducting all the variable costs.

This contribution margin can be expressed per unit by dividing the contribution margin of $540,000 by the 4,500 units sold.  The per unit value can then be expressed as a ratio of the selling price.  From the contribution margin ratio, we can estimate how much is left per dollar of sales for Tight Drums Company to cover its fixed costs and generate operating income.

If your formulas are correct, you should get the correct answers to the following questions.
a. What is the ROI?
b. What is the residual income? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign.)
c. Why is the residual income positive?

Answers

Answer:

ROI 15%

Residual Income $1,350,000

Explanation:

Residual Income is the difference between net income of the company and the required rate of return. It determines the excess of income generate than the minimum return. The formula to calculate the residual income is,

RI = Net operating Income - (Required rate of return * Cost of operating assets)

RI = $4,500,000 - (21% * $15,000,000 )

RI = $1,350,000

ROI = [tex]\frac{Net Operating Income}{Capital Employed}[/tex]

Capital Employed = Sales - Average operating assets

ROI = 15%

Residual income is positive when the department has meet the minimum return requirement. Minimum return is the return that is required by the company stakeholders. The particular projects and activities are selected on the basis of residual income.

Your university is considering two projects to increase enrollment: offering traditional classes from midnight to 6 a.m. or offering house call classes where the professor would visit your home to provide instruction. Use a simple scoring model with at least three criteria to evaluate these two potential projects and indicate which project should be chosen.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The criteria for our simple scoring model will bee the following:

Project 1. Midnight to 6:00AM

CRITERIA.   WEIGHT  SCORE

-Number of teachers  3   3

-Teachers salaries.  3   3

-Classroom cost.   1   1

-N. Students    2   2

Project 2. Home visit.

-Number of teachers  3   3

-Teachers salaries.  3   3

-Transportation.   3   3

-N. Students.    3   3

As we can see in the tables, project 1 is more feasible because depending on the number of students, the school can use one or two classrooms which means hiring teachers according to the number of students registered in a class.

On project 2, the variables increased the costs and the risk because depending on the number of students and the classes needed, the school would have to hire many teachers for different class times. This could be exponential. Another issue to consider is the fact that on project number 2, the school has to pay for the transportation of teachers to the student's home.

So in general terms, project 1 is more feasible.

If political influences, independent of any economic forces, lead to a larger government budget deficit, what will be the effect on the loanable funds market

Answers

Answer:

The government budget deficit will cause the interest rate to rise, reducing both saving and investment.

Another effect will be the crowding-out of the loanable funds market to private investment. This is because a government in deficit will need to issue more debt in the market, taking up many funds that could have been otherwise invested in private companies.

a.) No, the process is not in control.
b.) Not enough information to determine this.
c.) Yes, the process is in control.

Answers

Answer: c.) Yes, the process is in control.

Explanation:

For the process to be in control, the number of defects have to be between the Upper Control Limit and the Lower Control limits of the c-chart which can be used to measure defects of irregularities per unit.;

UCL = C-bar + z*√(c-bar)

LCL = C-bar - z*√(c-bar)

C - Bar = [tex]\frac{Number of Dfects}{Number of shirts}[/tex]

C - Bar = [tex]\frac{4+6+3+1+5+6+4+6}{8}[/tex]

C - Bar = 4.375

z = 3 when using the 3 sigma control

UCL = C-bar + z*√(c-bar)

UCL = 4.375 + 3 * √(4.375)

UCL = 10.65

LCL = C-bar - z*√(c-bar)

LCL = 4.375 - 3 * √(4.375)

LCL = -1.9

LCL = 0 (Lower limit minimum should be 0 at least)

Defects are within the control limits. The process is in control.

The Process is in Control when the Upper Control Limit is above Zero atleast and Lower Control Limit should be Zero. Hence option is C is correct.

Upper Control Limit and Lower Control Limit

To Answer the given question, we need to find the value of UCL and LCL. The Formula for the UCL and LCL are as follows:

UCL = C-bar + z*√(c-bar)LCL = C-bar - z*√(c-bar)

Where C- Bar is average of total numbers of defect shirts, hence value = 4.375, and z is sigma value control thus value will be 3.

Solving these equation will give result UCL as 10.65, and LCL as -1.9. Therefore, correct option is C. Yes, the process is in control.

rockwell corp just paid a dividend of .50. analysts expect their dividends to increase by 7% every year for the next 3 years, and then have a constant dividend growth rate of 2% after year 3. If your required return is 8% what is the present value of the stock?

Answers

Answer:

Price of share today = $9.74

Explanation:

The price of a share can be calculated using the dividend valuation model  

According to this model the value of share is equal to the sum of the present values of its future cash dividends discounted at the required rate of return.  

If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the value of a share is calculated using the formula below:  

Price=Do (1+g)/(k-g)  

Do - dividend in the following year, K- requited rate of return , g- growth rate  

Step 1 : PV of dividend from year 1 to 3

PV = D × (1+r)^(-n)

D- dividend receivable in a particular year, r- required rate of return, n- year

Year                                          PV of Dividend

1         0.50 × 1.07^1 ×1.08^(-1)   =   0.495

2         0.50 × 1.07^2 ×1.08^(-2) =  0.491

3         0.50× 1.07^3× 1.08^(-3) =    0.486

Step 2 : PV of dividend from year 4 to infinity

PV (in year 3 terms) of dividend= 0.50× 1.07^3 ×1.02/(0.08-0.02) = 10.41

PV in year 0 terms = 10.41  × 1.08^(-3) = 8.27

Total Present Value = 0.495 + 0.491  + 0.486 + 8.27  =  9.738

Price of share today = $9.74

"A technical analyst has identified a resistance level for ABC stock at $81 and a support level at $75. The stock is currently trading at $77 and the analyst expects the stock to break the resistance level. Which order is appropriate to profit if the resistance level is broken?"

Answers

Answer:

Buy 100 ABC at $82 Stop

Explanation:

In the financial markets a resistance is an upper limit block on the market moving upward (buy). While the support is the lower limit on the market moving down (sell).

In this scenario we have a support of $75, resistance of $81 and the stock.is currently trading at $77. Just below the resistance.

If the analyst expects the stock to break the resistance of $81 then he should set a trade that is a buy since the market will go above $81.

When the market breaks a resistance it is expected to sky rocket, so the analyst will set a trade stop at $82, so that when the market is coming back down to the resistance level it will stop before it gets to $81.

On the other hand if a support is expected to be broken a sell trade is placed.

The offering price of an open-end fund is $12.30 per share and the fund is sold with a front-end load of 5%. What is its net asset value?

Answers

Answer:

$11.685

Explanation:

Calculation for the net asset value

Since the front-end load is 5% this means that we are going to deduct 5% from 100% which will give us 95%, therefore 95% will be our front-end load percentage.

Now let find the Net asset value

Using this formula

Net asset value=Front-end load Percentage × Offering price

Let plug in the formula

Net asset value=95%×$12.30

Net asset value=$11.685

Therefore the Net asset value will be $11.685

Answer:

Kindly check the explanation section because the answer is long.

Explanation:

(1). Date: December 16.

Details: Equipment = 140,000 × .46 = 64,400.

Accounts payable(Sfr) = 140,000 × .46 = 64,400.

Foreign currency received from broker(Sfr) = 140,000 × .45 = 63,000.

Dollar payable to exchange broker($) 140,000 × .45 = 63,000.

(2). Date: December 31.

Details= foreign currency transaction loss = 140,000 × ( .48 - .46) = 2,800

Revaluation of Accounts payable(Sfr) = 140,000 × ( .48 - .46) = 2,800

Foreign currency received from broker (Sfr) = 140,000 × (.475 - .45) = 3,500.

Foreign currency transaction gain= 140,000 × (.475 - .45) = 3,500.

(3). Date : February 14.

Details: Foreign currency transaction loss = 140,000 × (.475 - .47) = 700

Foreign currency receivable from broker = 140,000 × (.475 - .47) = 700

Account payable = 140,000 × (.47 - .48) = - 1,400 = 1,400.

Foreign currency transaction Gain= 140,000 × (.47 - .48) = - 1,400 = 1,400

Dollars payable to exchange broker = 140,000 × .45 = 63,000

Cash = (140,000 × .45) = 63,000

Foreign currency uni(Sfr) = 140,000 × .47 = 65,800.

Foreign currency receivable from broke(Sfr) = 140,000 × .47 = 65,800.

Answers

Answer:

a. long-run equilibrium.

Explanation:

In the circumstances that the structural unemployment rate is 1.7 percent, the frictional unemployment rate is 2.6 percent, and the economy's current unemployment rate is 3.9 percent. Then we can say that the economy is in a long-run equilibrium.

Frictional unemployment is a form of unemployment which is voluntary because employees which to change jobs or move to another better job.

Hence, the economy is in a long-run equilibrium because the rate of unemployment has become constant, thus, prices and wages will be adjusted in order to reach wages equilibrium level.
