Answers

Answer:

Bombay Energy and Tangent Corporation

1. Bombay Energy

a) Net Income:

Sales                   $12,500

Operating Costs $9,500

Gross profit         $3,000

Depreciation          $925

EBIT                     $2,075

Interest Expense  $234

EBT                      $1,841

Taxes  (37%)           (681)

Net Income         $1,160

b) Free Cash Flow:

= $283

2. Tangent Corporation

a) EVA:

= -$762,720

Explanation:

a) Bombay Data:

Sales  $12,500

Operating Costs $9,500

Depreciation $925

Outstanding bonds = $3,900

Interest Rate on bonds = 6%

Interest expense = $234 ($3,900 * 6%)

Federal and State Income Tax Rate = 37%

Capital expenditures = $1,500

Net Operating Working Capital investment = $450

b) Bombay' Free Cash Flow equals its earnings before interest and taxes multiplied by (1 − tax rate), add depreciation and amortization, and then subtract changes in working capital and capital expenditure.

EBIT  $2,075 (1 - 37%)

Depreciation                925

Capital expenditure (1,500)

Net working capital    (450)

Free Cash Flow         $283

= $1,307 + 925 - ($1,500 + 450)

= $283

c) Tangent Data:

Net Income - $756,000

Interest Expense - $300,000

Income before tax $456,000

Tax Rate -37%         (168,720)

NOPAT                  $287,280

Total Investor Supplied Capital - $10.5 million

Weighted Average Cost of Capital -10%

The formula for calculating EVA is:

EVA = NOPAT - (Invested Capital * WACC)

Where:

NOPAT = Net operating profit after taxes

Invested capital = Debt + capital leases + shareholders' equity

WACC = Weighted average cost of capital

= $287,280 - ($10,500,000 * 10%)

= $287,280 - 1,050,000

= -$762,720

Liquidity risk would be greatest for an investor whose portfolio was primarily composed of A) ADRs listed on the NYSE B) municipal bond UITs C) Nasdaq stocks D) municipal bonds

Answers

Answer: D) municipal bonds

Explanation:

Liquidity risk is the risk that an instrument or security can not be easily sold such that actual hard currency can be recuperated.

ADRs on the NYSE can be easily sold and so can NASDAQ stocks. Municipal bond Unit Investment Trust (UITs) can be redeemed in a non-complicated manner so are liquid as well.

Municipal bonds will prove to be the least liquid as the market for municipal bonds is not a heavily traded one.

On November 1, Arvelo Corporation had $38,500 of raw materials on hand. During the month, the company purchased an additional $71,500 of raw materials. During November, $82,000 of raw materials were requisitioned from the storeroom for use in production. These raw materials included both direct and indirect materials. The indirect materials totaled $4,300. Prepare journal entries to record these events. Use those journal entries to answer the following questions:

The credits to the Raw Materials account for the month of November total:_________

Answers

Answer:

$73,400

Explanation:

The computation of Raw Materials account for the month of November total is shown below:-

Raw Materials account for the month of November = Work in progress inventory - Manufacturing overheads

= ($82,000 - $4,300) - $4,300

= $77,700 - $4,300

= $73,400

Therefore for computing the raw materials we simply applied the above formula.

Consulting life (10 points) Mt. Kinley is a strategy consulting firm that divides its consultants into three classes: associates, managers, and partners. The firm has been stable in size for the last 20 years, ignoring growth opportunities in the 90s, but also not suffering from a need to downsize in the recession at the beginning of the 21st century. Specifically, there have been -- and are expected to be -- 200 associates, 60 managers, and 20 partners. The work environment at Mt. Kinley is rather competitive. After four years of working as an associate, a consultant goes ``either up or out''; that is, becomes a manager or is dismissed from the company. Similarly, after six years a manager either becomes a partner or is dismissed. The company recruits MBAs as associate consultants; no hires are made at the manager or partner level. A partner stays with the company for another 10 years (a total of 20 years with the company).a. How many new MBA graduates does Mt. Kinley have to hire every year? b. What are the odds that a new hire at Mt. Kinley will become partner (as opposed to being dismissed after 4 years or 10 years).

Answers

Answer:

A. 50

B. 4%

Explanation:

We can easily find out how many new MBA graduates do Mt. Kinley has to hire every year by calculating the flow rate of associates by dividing the average inventory of associates by flow time of associates.

Requirement A:

The flow rate of associates = Average inventory of associates / Flow time of associates

The flow rate of associates = 200/4

The flow rate of associates  = 50

Therefore the firm should assign 50 new MBAs every year.

Requirement B

Probability of associate becoming a partner = 20% x 20%

Probability of associate becoming a partner = 4%

The chances that a new hire at Mt. Kinley will become partner are 4%

Working

The flow rate of manager = Average inventory of manager/ Flow time of manager

The flow rate of manager = 60/6

The flow rate of manager = 10 managers/year

The flow rate of partner = Average inventory of partner/ Flow time of partner

The flow rate of manager = 20/10

The flow rate of manager = 2 partners/year

probability of becoming a manager = 10/50

probability of becoming a manager = 20%

Probability of becoming a partner = 2/10

Probability of becoming a partner = 20%

At the beginning of 2013, the Harding Construction Company received a contract to build an office building for $10 million. Harding will construct the building according to specifications provided by the buyer, and the project is estimated to take three years to complete. According to the contract, Harding will bill the buyer in installments over the construction period according to a prearranged schedule. Information related to the contract is as follows:

2013:   726,300

2014:    841,700

2015:   432,000

completed contract

we recognize the profit at the end:

2013: zero

2014: zero

2015: 2,000,000

Explanation:

percentage of completion

2013:

we incurred 2,300,000

over a total cost of 2,300,000 + 5,300,000 = 7,600,000

the percentage complete will be:

2,300,000 / 7,600,000 = 30.263% percentage of completion

we multiply this be the revenue:

$10,000,000 x 30,263% = $3,026,300

less 2,300,000 cost

gross profit: 726,300 dollars

2014:

we incurred 3,600,000

so far we have cost for 2,300,000 + 3,600,000 = 5,900,000

for a total cost of 7,900,000

5,900,000 / 7,900,000 = 74.68% percentage of completion

we multiply this but, subtract previous revenue recognized:

10,000,000 x (74.68% - 30,263%) = 4,441,700 revenue

less 3,600,000 cost: 841,700 gross profit

2015:

we complete the project so we recognize the rest of the revenue.

10,000,000 x (100% - 74.68%) = 2,532,000

cost of the year 2,100,000

gross profit: 432,000

completed contract:

10,000,000 contract value less cost:

2013 2,300,000

2014 3,600,000

2015 2,100,000

total 8,000,000

Allison and Leslie, who are twins, just received $10,000 each for their 25th birthdays. They both have aspirations to become millionaires. Each plans to make a $5000 annual contribution to her "early retirement fund" on her birthday, beginning a year from today. Allison opened an account with the Safety First Bond Fund, a mutual fund that invests in high quality bonds whose investors have earned 8% per year in the past. Leslie invested in the New-Issue Bio Tech Fund, which invests in small, newly issued bio-tech stocks and whose investors have earned an average of 13% per year in the fund’s relatively short history.
a. If the two women’s funds earn the same returns in the future as in the past, how old will each be when she becomes a millionaire?
b. How large would Allison’s annual contributions have to be for her to become a millionaire at the same age as Leslie, assuming that their expected returns are realized?

Answers

Answer:

a. If the two women’s funds earn the same returns in the future as in the past, how old will each be when she becomes a millionaire?

Allison:

1,000,000 = 5,000 x  [(1 + i)ⁿ  - 1 ] / i

200 = [(1 + 8%)ⁿ  - 1 ] / 8%

16 = 1.08ⁿ  - 1

17 = 1.08ⁿ

n = log 17 / log 1.08 = 1.230448921 / 0.033423755 = 36.81 years

Leslie:

1,000,000 = 5,000 x  [(1 + i)ⁿ  - 1 ] / i

200 = [(1 + 13%)ⁿ  - 1 ] / 13%

26 = 1.13ⁿ  - 1

27 = 1.13ⁿ

n = log 27 / log 1.13 = 1.43133764 / 0.053078443 = 26.97 years

b. How large would Allison’s annual contributions have to be for her to become a millionaire at the same age as Leslie, assuming that their expected returns are realized?

1,000,000 = payment x  [(1 + i)ⁿ  - 1 ] / i

1,000,000 = payment x  [(1 + 8%)²⁶°⁹⁷  - 1 ] / 8%

80,000 = payment x [1.08²⁶°⁹⁷  - 1 ]

80,000 = payment x 6.969639658

payment = 80,000 / 6.969639658 = $11,478.36

Ang Electronics, Inc., has developed a new DVDR. If the DVDR is successful, the present value of the payoff (when the product is brought to market) is $24 million. If the DVDR fails, the present value of the payoff is $8.5 million. If the product goes directly to market, there is a 50 percent chance of success. Alternatively, the company can delay the launch by one year and spend $1.2 million to test market the DVDR. Test marketing would allow the firm to improve the product and increase the probability of success to 80 percent. The appropriate discount rate is 11 percent.

Required:
Calculate the NPV of going directly to market and the NPV of test marketing before going to market.

Answers

Answer:

NPV of going directly to the market:

Expected value of future cash flows = ($24 x 50%) + ($8.5 x 50%) = $16.25 million

There is a 50/50 chance of being a success or a failure, so to determine the expected value you just multiply each option by 50% and add them.

NPV of  test marketing before going directly to the market:

Expected value of future cash inflows = ($24 x 80%) + ($8.5 x 20%) = $20.9 (but delayed by 1 year)

PV of expected cash flows = -1.2 (marketing costs) + $20.9/1.11 = $17.80 million

Suppose that you are working as a financial analyst in Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Your boss have just asked to analyze three different money market instrument yields and to suggest investment advice to its rich clients. Which of following instruments is the most desirable to invest in ? A six month T-bill rate of 1.9 % A six moth Eurodollar deposit of 1.9% A six month CD rate of 1.9 %

Answers

Answer:  A six month T-bill rate of 1.9 %

Explanation:

As all the instruments are similar in terms of maturity period and return rate, the most desirable will be in terms of the one with the lowest risk.

The United States T-bill is one of the safest instruments in the world as it is backed by the full faith of the United States Government which has technically never defaulted on debt. This is therefore the lowest instrument listed and is therefore the most desirable.

Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries, they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $500 from corporate bonds. Marc contributed $2,500 to an individual retirement account, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $1,500 (under a divorce decree effective June 1, 2005). Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $2,000 child tax credit for Matthew. Marc and Michelle paid $6,000 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $3,500 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the year. (Use the tax rate schedules)
A. What is Marc and Michelle’s gross income?
B. What is Marc and Michelle’s adjusted gross income?C. What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle’s deductions from AGI?D. What is Marc and Michelle’s taxable income?E. What is Marc and Michelle’s taxes payable or refund due for the year?

Answers

Answer:

Since we are not given any specific year, I will use the 2020 tax schedule:

Marc and Michelle's gross income = Marc's and Michelle's salaries + interest from corporate bonds = $64,000 + $12,000 + $500 = $76,500

they should choose the standard deduction since it is higher than their itemized deductions = ($24,400)

contribution to IRA = ($2,500)

alimony payment = ($1,500) the divorce agreement was settled before 2019

Marc and Michelle's taxable income = $48,100

Marc and Michelle's tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($48,100 - $19,750)] = $5,377

Interests on municipal bonds is not taxable.

The amount of taxes that they owe = $5,377 - $3,500 (federal tax withholdings) = $1,877

Since they are allowed a $2,000 child tax credit, that will wipe out any taxes owed and result in a $2,000 - $1,877 = $123 refund.

In the run up to the war in Iraq that began in 2003, one of the many concerns raised was that a war could result in a decrease in the supply of oil. At the same time, the U.S. economy was having a hard time recovering from the recession of 2001 and, as a result, incomes of many consumers had decreased (due to layoffs, wage cuts, and so forth). All else constant, it was reasonable to predict, with certainty, that the combination of these two factors would cause the equilibrium:__________

a. quantity of oil to decrease.
b. quantity of oil to increase.
c. price of oil to increase.
d. price of oil to decrease.

Answers

A rise in demand will result in an increase in a good's equilibrium price and output. Hence option C is correct .

What is equilibrium ?

According to formal definitions, equilibrium is a condition of balance or rest brought on by the equal activity of opposing forces. Supply and demand are these forces in economics. We shall see that when there is an imbalance between supply and demand, economic forces will operate until the equilibrium is restored.

Depicts the hot dog market's competitive nature, with aggregate supply in yellow and aggregate demand in blue. Hot dog demand decreases as price increases, while supply increases. This diagram contains two crucial details. Equilibrium quantity comes first (QE). QE occurs when the amount supplied and the quantity required are equal.

It is crucial to understand the means through which we arrive at this value. Only one price, known as equilibrium price, can be correlated with equilibrium quantity (PE). The question of how to achieve equilibrium still stands. Let's start by thinking about what happens when the price is too high.

Chris owns his own business restoring antique cars. Last year, he restored 24 cars, which he sold for $1,100,000. The parts and supplies necessary for the restoration totaled $400,000. He paid $360,000 to his six employees and a salary of $110,000 to himself. The rent and utilities on his building were $80,000. Recently, Chris received an offer to work as Jay Leno’s personal auto restorer, at a salary of $275,000. Chris also received a $180,000 offer to host a car-related reality TV show for the Discovery Channel. Chris can only work one job.

a. how much an individual would earn in the individual's next best alternative minus how much he or she currently earns?
b. how much an individual currently earns minus how much the individual would earn in his or her next best alternative?

Answers

Answer:

a. $950,000.$150,000.a. $1,115,000.d. -$15,000.b. how much an individual currently earns minus how much the individual would earn in his or her next best alternative.

Explanation:

1. Chris's accounting cost

The accounting cost is the explicit cost of the business. The normal costs so to speak;

= Parts and supplies necessary for the restoration + Salaries to employees + Salary to himself + Rent and utilities

= 400,000 + 360,000 + 110,000 + 80,000

= $‭950,000‬

2. Chris's accounting profit

= Revenue - Accounting cost

= 1,100,000 - 950,000

= $150,000

3. Chris's economic cost

These are explicit + implicit (opportunity) cost.

The opportunity cost is the next best alternative which would have been the $275,000 if he had worked at Jay Leno’s personal auto restorer.

He would therefore forfeit the salary he earns now of $110,000.

= Accounting cost + Salary foregone - Salary

= 950,000 + 275,000  - 110,000

= $1,115,000

4. Chris's economic profit

= 1,100,000 - 1,115,000

= -$15,000

5. b. how much an individual currently earns minus how much the individual would earn in his or her next best alternative.

Monetary base describes all of the money circulating in a country's economic system. Therefore, option D is correct.

What is monetary base?

Monetary base refers to the total amount of currency in circulation in a country, including physical currency, reserves held by banks at the central bank, and any other money that is considered part of the country's money supply. It is also referred to as the "money base" or "high-powered money".

The monetary base is controlled by the central bank of a country, which can influence it through its monetary policy decisions, such as setting interest rates and buying or selling government securities.

By controlling the monetary base, the central bank can affect the supply of money in the economy, which can in turn impact factors such as inflation, economic growth, and employment levels.

Answers

Answer:

cost of goods manufactured= $130,000

COGS= $135,000

Explanation:

To calculate the cost of goods manufactured, we need to use the following formula:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

cost of goods manufactured= 38,000 + 52,000 + 67,000 + 21,000 - 48,000

cost of goods manufactured= $130,000

Now, we can determine the cost of goods manufactured:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory

COGS= 22,000 + 130,000 - 17,000

COGS= $135,000

Answers

Answer:

$7,440,000$5,500,000

Explanation:

1. Checkbook balance of $8,000,000 in December 2020.

Check payable to Aruba of $2,000,000 has not yet being deposited so it should be removed from cash balance

Check payable that was returned by the bank of $500,000 should not be included either because it did not clear.

Check drawn on Aruba account of $1,500,000 was recorded but not yet mailed so it should be added back.

Cash on hand - undeposited collections and Change fund are actual cash that should be added as well.

= 8,000,000 - 2,000,000 - 500,000 + 1,500,000 + 400,000 + 40,000

= $‭7,440,000‬

2. Cash equivalents are those instruments that can be easily converted to cash. They typically mature within 3 months.

The Cash equivalents here are Treasury bills and Money Market placements

= 2,500,000 + 3,000,000

= $5,500,000

The total amount to be reported as cash on December 31, 2020 is $7,440,000 and the total amount to be reported as cash equivalents on December 31, 2020 is $5,600,000.

1. CASH = Checkbook balance of $8,000,000 + Check payable to Aruba of $2,000,000 + Check payable $500,000  + Check drawn $1,500,000 + Cash on hand - Undeposited collections

CASH = 8,000,000 - 2,000,000 - 500,000 + 1,500,000 + 400,000 + 40,000

CASH = $‭7,440,000

Cash equivalents = Treasury bills +  Money Market placements

Cash equivalents = 2,500,000 + 3,000,000

Cash equivalents = $5,500,000

In conclusion, the total amount to be reported as cash on December 31, 2020 is $7,440,000 and the total amount to be reported as cash equivalents on December 31, 2020 is $5,600,000.

Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured

DIRECT MATERIAL

Opening 14,350

Add Purchased 315,350

Total Raw Material Available 329,700

Less: Closing Raw Material (22,350)

Less: Indirect Raw Material used in Production (26,700)

Raw Material used in production (A) 280,650

DIRECT LABOR (B) 377,350

FACTORY OVERHEAD APPLIED

($7.7*34070) (C ) 262,339

TOTAL MANUFACTURING COSTS (A+B+C) 920,339 (280,650+377,350+262,339)

Add Opening Work in Progress 27,350

Less: Closing Work in Progress (9,350)

Cost of goods manufactured 938,339

Calculation for Factory Overhead Recovery Rate using this formula

Factory Overhead Recovery Rate = Budgeted Factory Overhead/Machine Hours

Let plug in the formula

Factory Overhead Recovery Rate=256,795/33,350

Factory Overhead Recovery Rate= $ 7.70

2. Calculation for the overhead underapplied or overapplied

First step is to compute for Total Manufacturing Overhead

Computation of Manufacturing Overhead Incurred

Indirect Material 26,700

Indirect Labour 96,350

Factory Utilities Cost 10,350

Depreciation 131,000

Total Manufacturing Overhead 264,400

Second step is to Compute for Manufacturing Overhead Under or Over applied using this formula

Let plug in the formula

Manufacturing Overhead Under or Over applied = Actual Manufacturing Overhead Incurred - Manufacturing Overhead applied

Manufacturing Overhead Under or Over applied= 264,400 - 262,339

Manufacturing Overhead Under or Over applied= $2,061 Underapplied

3. Preparation of an income statement for the year.

Based on what we have learned about shortages and surpluses in a market, which one do you think is more harmful to the overall economy: a shortage or a surplus of a good? Provide a detailed explanation to demonstrate your thinking.

Answers

Answer:

A surplus of a good

Explanation:

Although we think that having a lot of something sounds like a good idea that is not always the case. Sometimes its better to have less of an item but therefore sell it for. For example when there was a shortage of hand sanitzer, masks and toilet paper people bought more of it for a higher price because they were afraid not to have enough. A surplus can take up a lot of storage and use up a lot of money. For example if a car manafacturer has a surplus of cars they are just sittinng there taking up space in a lot that needs to be payed for and mantained. I find it is especially bad if there are lot of that item and people are not interested in purchasing it. The company would be losing money because they would be most likely selling it at a lower price. Therefore the economy would be losing money while during a shortage they would be gaining money.
