Pasadena Candle Inc. budgeted production of 715,000 candles for the January. Wax is required to produce a candle. Assume 10 ounces of wax is required for each candle. The estimated January 1 wax inventory is 18,600 pounds. The desired January 31 wax inventory is 12,800 pounds. If candle wax costs $2.10 per pound, determine the direct materials purchases budget for January. (One pound = 16 ounces.) Round all computed answers to the nearest whole number. For those boxes in which you must enter subtracted or negative numbers use a minus sign.
Answer:
Purchases Quantity = 441075 pounds
Purchases Value = $926257.5
Explanation:
To calculate the quantity and value of the purchases of direct material for the month of January, we first need to determine the quantity of direct material needed for production in January and adjust it with the opening inventory of direct material and the desired closing inventory.
To produce 715000 candles, the wax needed (in pounds) = 715000 * 10/16
To produce 715000 candles, the wax needed (in pounds) = 446875 pounds
The purchases for wax in pounds for January should be,
Consumption = Opening Inventory + Purchases - Closing Inventory
446875 = 18600 + Purchases - 12800
446875 + 12800 - 18600 = Purchases
Purchases = 441075 pounds
The value of Purchases will be = 441075 * 2.1 = $926257.5

Next year, the company expects to generate a free cash flow of $10,000,000. The market value of Purple Panda’s outstanding debt and preferred stock is $75,000,000 and $41,666,667, respectively. Purple Panda has 4,500,000 shares of common stock outstanding, and its weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 19%.Given the preceding information, complete the adjacent table (rounding each value to the nearest whole dollar), and assuming that the firm has not had any nonoperating assets in its balance sheet. Term Value Value of Operations Value of Firm's Common Equity Value of Common Stock (per share) Oops, a more careful review of Purple Panda's balance sheet actually reports a $2,370,000 portfolio of marketable securities. How does this new information affect the intrinsic value of Purple Panda's common equity (expressed on a per-share basis) assuming no other changes to the Purple Panda financial situation? Review the statements below and select those that accurately describe Purple Panda's financial situation.
A. The intrinsic value of the company's common stock isn't affected by the new information.
B. The intrinsic value of Purple Panda's common stock decreases with the inclusion of the company's marketable securities portfolio into the analysis.
C. The revised intrinsic value of Purple Panda's common stock is $1.27 per share.
D. The intrinsic value of Purple Panda's common stock increases with the inclusion of the company's marketable securities portfolio into the analysis.
Answer:
Total value of PPP = $10,000,000 / (19% - 13%) = $166,666,667
Total equity value = $166,666,667 - $41,666,667 = $125,000,000 (preferred stocks are considered equity)
Common stock equity value = $125,000,000 - $75,000,000 = $50,000,000
Per share value = $50,000,000 / 4,500,000 = $11.11 ≈ $11 (to the nearest $)

Review the statements below and select those that accurately describe Purple Panda's financial situation.
A. The intrinsic value of the company's common stock isn't affected by the new information.Marketable securities are short term investments (included in current assets). Since we are not given any more information regarding PPP's assets nor how it earns a profit, we cannot determine for sure if this discovery affects stock. personally, I believe it shouldn't unless the securities include high risk stocks that could affect the companies future earnings. We determined the price of PPP based on its future cash flows, not based on its assets.
Christopher likes cupcakes (C) and muffins (M). His preferences can be represented by the utility function U(C, M) = C0.5M0.5. He received a gift basket with 16 cupcakes and 4 muffins, but when he was about to eat them, he found out his younger brother Dan had eaten 14 cupcakes and 2 muffins. Christopher made Dan buy what he'd eaten back. However, the bakery was out of muffins and Dan only bought cupcakes. How many cupcakes did Dan buy if, in addition to what he had not eaten from the basket, the new cupcakes provide Christopher with the same level of utility as the original gift basket?
Answer:
16 cupcakes
Explanation:
U(C, M) = C⁰°⁵ x M⁰°⁵ = √C x √M
total utility obtained by eating 16 cupcakes and 4 muffins = √16 x √4 = 4 + 2 = 6
since the bakery is out of muffins, then utility function = √C x √2 = √C x 1.4142
√C x 1.4142 = 6
√C = 6 / 1.4142 = 4.2426
C = 4.2426² = 18
since there were 2 cupcakes left, Christopher must purchase 18 - 2 = 16 cupcakes

Consider an economy that is composed of identical individuals who live for two periods. These individuals have preferences over consumption in periods 1 and 2 given by U = ln(C1) + ln(C2). They receive an income of 100 in period 1 and an income of 50 in period 2. They can save as much of their income as they like in bank accounts, earning an interest rate of 10% per period. They do not care about their children, so they spend all their money before the end of period 2.
Each individual’s lifetime budget constraint is given by C1 + C2/(1 + r) = Y1 + Y2/(1 + r). Individuals choose consumption in each period by maximizing lifetime utility subject to this lifetime budget constraint.
What is the individual’s optimal consumption in each period? How much saving does he or she do in the first period?
Now the government decides to set up a social security system. This system will take $10 from each individual in the first period, put it in the bank, and transfer it to him or her with interest in the second period. Write out the new lifetime budget constraint. How does the system affect the amount of private savings? How does the system affect national savings (total savings in society)? What is the name for this type of social security system?
Explanation:
we calculate lifetime income,
= 100 + 50 = 150
individual consumes income in periods c1 and c2 and interest rate on savings is 10%,
we define the consumption basket;
c1 = 100
c2 = 50
i = 10% = 0.1
c1 + c2/(1+i) = y1 + y2/(1+i) = 100 + 50/1.1 = 100+45.45 = 145.45
c2 = (145.45 - c1) x 1.1
we have MUc1 = 1/c1
and MUc2 = 1/c2
we have to equate the ratio of marginal utilities with the prices of consumption of periods c1 and c2
c2/c1 = 1+i = 1.1
c2 = 1.1 x c1 ............ (2)
we have to put c2 into c1, we get
1.1 x c1 = (145.45 - c1) x 1.1
1.1c1 = (145.45- c1)1.1
divide through by 1.1
c1 = 145.45 - c1
c1+c1 = 145.45
2c1 = 145.45
to get value of c1;
c1 = 145.45/2 = 72.73
since c1 is known
c2 = 1.1 x 72.73 = 80
b. if government takes $10 from period 1 and add it to the income of a consumer in period 2, we then have income of individual to be;
Y1 = 100-10 = 90
Y2 = 50 + 10 + (10% of 10)
10%x10 = 1,
y2 = 60+1 = 61
c1 + c2/1.1 = 90 + (61/1.1)
= 90 + 55.45
= 145.45
c2 = (145.45 - c1) x 1.1
equilibrium values will be unchanged, apart fro the fact that $10 is a compulsry savings of an individual therefore private savings falls
100 - 72.73-10 = 17.27
This type of savings is called as Providend fund

5.
Unearned Service Revenue 2250 Dr
Service Revenue 2250 Cr
Explanation:
1.
The insurance policy is for 1 year. The per year expense is = 1320 / 12 = 110
Till December, 7 months of insurance expense will be charged = 110 * 7 = 770
2.
The rent is paid in advance for 5 months till January. Till December, 4 months of rent has been consumed.
Rent expense will be debited by = 6100 / 5 * 4 = 4880
3.
The cash is received in advance for service providing for the 9 months from September. Till December, 4 months of service revenue would have been earned.
Service revenue will be credited by = 3240 / 9 * 4 = 1440
4.
The cash is paid for cleaning service in advance for 2 months till January next year. Till December, one month of service would have been availed so cleaning expense will be debited by $1150 and prepaid cleaning will be credited by $1150
5.
The cash is received in advance for service to be provided. Till the end of December, $2250 (2600 - 350) of service has been provided. So service revenue will be credited by $2250 and unearned service revenue will be debited by $2250
A production line has three machines A, B, and C, with reliabilities of .92, .97, and .87, respectively. The machines are arranged so that if one breaks down, the others must shut down. Engineers are weighing two alternative designs for increasing the line’s reliability. Plan 1 involves adding an identical backup line, and plan 2 involves providing a backup for each machine. In either case, three machines (A, B, and C) would be used with reliabilities equal to the original three.
A. Compute overall system reliability under Plan 1.
B. Compute overall system reliability under Plan 2.
C. Which plan will provide the higher reliability?1. Plan 2.2. Plan 1.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
If one machine breaks, the others breaks, this means that the are connected in series, hence the reliability of the line is:
Reliability of line = 0.92 * 0.97 * 0.87 = 0.7764
A) Plan 1: Plan A involves connecting a backup line in parallel, therefore the overall reliability would be:
Overall reliability = 1 - (1 - 0.7764)² = 0.95
B) Plan 2: In plan B, each machine has a backup.
Hence:
For machine A: Reliability = 1 - (1 - 0.92)² = 0.9936
For machine B: Reliability = 1 - (1 - 0.97)² = 0.9991
For machine C: Reliability = 1 - (1 - 0.97)² = 0.9831
Overall system reliability = 0.9936*0.9991*0.9831 = 0.9759
C) Since plan 2 has a higher reliability hence plan 2 is the better plan
Vandalay Industries manufactures two products: toasters and blenders. The annual production and sales of toasters is 2100 units, while 1600 units of blenders are produced and sold. The company has traditionally used direct labor hours to allocate its overhead to products. Toasters require 1.25 direct labor hours per unit, while blenders require 1 direct labor hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for the period is $149,315. The company is looking at the possibility of changing to an activity-based costing system for its products. If the company used an activity-based costing system, it would have the following three activity cost pools:
Expected activity
Estimated
Activity cost Overhead
pool cost Toasters Blenders Total
Setup costs $8,585 215 batches 450 batches 665 batches
Engineering costs $73,980 870 engineering 820 engineering 1,690 engineering
hours hours
Maintenance costs $66,750 2,7250 direct 1,195 direct 3,945 direct
labor hours labor hours labor hours
Total $149,315
The overhead cost per Blenders using the traditional costing system would be closest to:____.
A. $28.27.
B. $37.85.
C. $93.32.
D. $19.40.
Answer:
a. Overhead cost per blender = $28.27
Explanation:
Overhead rate = $149,315 / 3,945
Overhead rate = $37.85
Overhead cost per blender = (Blender Direct labor hours * Overhead rate) / Units of blunder Produced and sold
Overhead cost per blender = (1,195 * $37.85) / 1,600
Overhead cost per blender = $45,230.75 / 1,600
Overhead cost per blender = $28.27
Nelson Ovalles worked as a cable installer for Cox Rhode Island Telecom, LLC, under an agreement with a third party, M&M Communications, Inc. The agreement stated that no employer-employee relationship existed between Cox and M&M’s technicians, including Ovalles. Ovalles was required to designate his affiliation with Cox on his work van, clothing, and identification badge, but Cox had minimal contact with him and limited power to control the manner in which he performed his duties. Cox supplied cable wire and similar items, but the equipment was delivered to M&M, not to Ovalles. On a workday, while Ovalles was fulfilling a work order, his van rear ended a car driven by Barbara Cayer.
a. Is Cox liable to Cayer?
b. Are independent contractors the same as employees?
c. What is the difference?
Answer:
a. Is Cox liable to Cayer?
No
b. Are independent contractors the same as employees?
No
c. What is the difference?
Ovalles cannot be considered Cox's employee because Cox didn't control the performance of Ovalles and didn't have contact with him.
Independent contractors are not covered by labor and employment laws, and they are responsible for paying their own taxes, including self-employment taxes. A contractor does not work on a salary basis, their work and pay must be specified in a contract.
Explanation:
This is an actual court case where the Supreme Court of Rhode Island ruled in favor of Cox Communications in February, 2014.
The court ruled that Ovalles was an employee for M&M, and that M&M had an independent contractor relationship with Cox Communications. Additionally, Ovalles was also an independent contractor for M&M, not an employee. There existed no direct relationnship between Cox and Ovalles.
Even though Ovalles and other independent contractors use both Cox's and M&M's logos on their vans and uniforms, this was done so consumers could identify them. The fact that an identification is needed so customers can determine the function of a technician, doesn't imply that those technicians are actually employees of the firm nor they actually a method of control over the technicians.
Since Cox didn't control the performance of Ovalles and didn't have contact with him, then there was no reason to consider him an employee of Cox.
The plaintiff, Barbara Cayer probably made a mistake when it included Cox in the lawsuit (since it is a large company), and she would have had a better case against M&M because that company did have control over Ovalles's performance and did have contact with him. But since M&M was a much smaller firm, they decided to go after the big fish. Later they tried to include M&M into the lawsuit but it was rejected since the Supreme Court had not made their ruling yet.
Suppose you’re evaluating three alternative MMMF investments. The first fund buys a diversified portfolio of municipal securities from across the country and yields 3.95 percent. The second fund buys only taxable, short-term commercial paper and yields 5.7 percent. The third fund specializes in the municipal debt from the state of New Jersey and yields 3.6 percent. If you are a New Jersey resident, your federal tax bracket is 35 percent, and your state tax bracket is 8 percent.1. Calculate the aftertax yield for each of the alternatives. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Omit the "%" sign in your response.) Aftertax Yield Municipal fund 3.95 % Taxable fund 3.31 % New Jersey municipal fund %2. Which of these three MMMFs offers you the highest aftertax yield?a. New Jersey Fundb. Municipal Fundc. Taxable Fund
Answer:
1) After tax yield for each alternative will be calculated as;
Municipal Fund after-tax yield = 0.0395*(1-0.08)
Municipal Fund after-tax yield = 0.0395*0.92
Municipal Fund after-tax yield = 0.03634
Municipal Fund after-tax yield = 3.63
Taxable Fund after-tax yield = 0.057(1 - 0.35 -0.08)
Taxable Fund after-tax yield = 0.057*0.57
Taxable Fund after-tax yield = 0.03249
Taxable Fund after-tax yield = 3.25
New jersey municipal fund after-tax yield =
2) Municipal fund offers the highest after-tax yield out of these three MMMF's

Answer:
Cash inflows = $3,260
Cash outflows = $3,260
Total assets = $22,300
Total liabilities = $2,724
Net worth = $19,576
Explanation:
Cash inflows = Monthly take-home salary $3,260
Cash outflows = Rent for the month $1,360 + Spending for food $560 + Telephone bill paid for month $94 + Loan payment $147 + Auto insurance $326 + Payment for electricity $166 + Lunches/parking at work $181 + Donations $122 + Clothing purchase $137 + Restaurant spending $167 = $3,260
Total assets = Cash in checking account $1,270 + Savings account balance $1,990 + Current value of automobile $8,530 + Household possessions $3,970 + Stereo equipment $2,590 + Home computer $2,140 + Value of stock investment $1,810 = $22,300

Buy-Class Situation New Buy Straight Rebuy Modified Rebuy
Question attached
Answer and Explanation:
New buy: solar panels, shipping cranes
Straight rebuy: legal pads and pens, copier paper
Modified rebuy : service trucks, record keeping software
New buy is typical of buyers who are buying a product for the first time and have no previous experience about it and therefore need to research and make proper buying decision
Straight rebuy: this class buy these products regularly and so do not need to make a critical decision.
modified rebuy: this buy class only need that the product be modified albeit the same product but with slightly different specifications. They have some experience as they have previously purchased the product. Example a company ordering for new logos and business cards.
Different products belong to different economical classes.
Different products and economical classesNew buy Straight Re-buy Modified Re-buy
Solar panels Legal pads and pan Service trucks
Shipping crane Copier paper Record-keeping software
Buyers in the new buy class have never purchased a product before. Because the customer is making their first purchase, they must be included in the decision-making process.
Buyers in the straight-buy category buy the product on a regular basis. As a result, less input is required.
Modified rebuy: Buyer has some product purchase experience.

3. Paid $2,700 cash on accounts payable.
4. Adjusted the records to reflect the use of supplies. A physical count indicated that $250 of supplies was still on hand on December 31, Year 2.
Required
a. Show the effects of the events on the financial statements.
b. Explain the difference between the amount of net income and amount of net cash flow from operating activities.
Answer:
a) I used an excel spreadsheet since there is not enough room here.
b) Net income = $8,950
Cash flows form operating activities =
Net income $8,950
Adjustments to net income:
Increase in account payable $250Net cash from operating activities $9,850
Net income is lower because a company must record revenues and expenses when they happen, not when they are associated with cash flows. This is why a company that makes all credit sales might have a large profit, but a small amount of cash (the opposite of this situation).
The answer is Net income = $8,950
Cash flows from operating activitiesNet income $8,950
Adjustments to net income:
Increase in account payable $250
Net cash from operating activities $9,850
When the Net income is lower because a company must record revenues and also expenses when they happen, and also not when they are associated with cash flows. so This is why a company that makes all credit sales might have a large profit, but a small amount of cash (the opposite of this situation).

Net sales $91,000 $89,500
Net earnings $6,370 $6,220
Average total assets $65,000 $64,400
Requirement
1. Compute net profit margin ratio (%) for the years ended January 31, and 2017. Did it improve or worsen in 2018?
2. Compute asset turnover for the years ended January 31, 2018 and 2017. Did improve or worsen in 2018? 2018 2017 91,000 $ 89,500 Net sales
3. Compute return on assets for the years ended January 31, 2018 and 2017. Did it improve or worsen in 2018? Which component-net profit margin ratio or asset turnover-was mostly responsible for the change in the company's return on assets?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
1. Net profit margin ratio (%) for 2017 will be:
= Net income/Net sales
= 6220/89500
= 0.0695
= 6.95%
Net profit margin ratio (%) for 2018 will be:
= Net income/Net sales
= 6370/91000
= 0.07
= 7%
An improvement of (7% - 6.95%) = 0.05% occurs in net profit.
2. Asset turnover for the year ended 2017 will be:
Net sales/Average total assets
= 89500/64400
= 1.39
= 139%
Asset turnover for the year ended 2018 will be:
Net sales/Average total assets
= 91000/65000
= 1.4
= 140%
There's an improvement in the asset turnover in 2018.
3. Return on assets for 2017 will be:
= Net income/Average total asset
= 6220/64400
= 9.66%
Return on assets for 2018 will be:
= Net income/Average total asset
= 6370/65000
= 9.80%
An improvement in return on total assets of (9.80% - 9.66%) = 0.14% occurs.
Both component-net profit margin ratio or asset turnover- are responsible for the change in the company's return on assets.
