Chester has negotiated a new labor contract for the next round that will affect the cost for their product Camp. Labor costs will go from $3.79 to $4.39 per unit. Assume all period and other variable costs remain the same. If Chester were to absorb the new labor costs without passing them on in the form of higher prices, how many units of product Camp would need to be sold next round to break even on the product?
Complete Question:
Chester has been selling widgets for $10, total variable costs are $4.40 and fixed costs are $100,000.
Chester has negotiated a new labor contract for the next round that will affect the cost for their product Cid. Labor costs will go from $2.79 to $3.39 per unit. Assume all period and other variable costs remain the same.
If Chester were to absorb the new labor costs without passing them on in the form of higher prices, how many units of product Cid would need to be sold next round to break even on the product?
Answer:
Chester
Break-even point = Fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit
= $100,000 / $5
= 20,000 units
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price = $10
Old variable cost = $4.40
Additional variable cost = $0.60
New variable costs = $5 ($4.40 + $0.60)
Contribution per unit = Selling price minus variable cost per unit
= $5 ($10 - $5)
Fixed costs = $100,000
b) Chester's Break-even point (in units) is the number of units of a product Camp that Chester requires to sell in order to recover her fixed costs. The information provided by break-even analysis guides Chester in making decisions for the production of Camps and its marketing. Without identifying the units of Camp to be produced and sold in order to remain in business, all things being equal, Chester might short-produce or short-sell Camps and run the business unprofitably.
You are an stock analyst hired to follow Jones Kenesyian Consulting (whose ticker is JK), the firm recently paid a dividend of $2 per share, and you expect JK to grow at 10% for the next 3 years afterwhich you make an assumption that it will grow at a constant rate of 5%. You required rate of return is 12%. What do you believe the intrisic value of the stock is today
Answer:
Price of stock today = $45.58
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 payable in a particular year
r- required rate of return
n- year
Year PV of Dividend
1 2 × 1.1^1 × 1.12^(-1) = 1.96
2 2 × 1.1^2× 1.12^(-2) = 1.93
3 2 × 1.1^3 × 1.12^9-3)= 1.89
Step 2 : PV of dividend from year 4 to infinity
PV (in year 3 terms) of dividend= 2 × 1.1^3× 1.05/(0.12-0.05) = 55.90
PV in year 0 terms = 55.90 × 1.12^(-3) = 39.789
Total present Value = 1.96 +1.93 +1.89 + 39.789= 45.58
Price of stock today = $45.58
Nissan’s all-electric car, the Leaf, has a base price of $32,780 in the United States, but it is eligible for a $7500 federal tax credit. A consulting engineering company wants to evaluate the purchase or lease of one of the vehicles for use by its employees traveling to job sites in the local area. The cost for leasing the vehicle will be $4200 per year (payable at the end of each year) after an initialization charge of $2500 paid now. If the company purchases the vehicle, it will also purchase a home charging station for $2200 that will be partially offset by a 50% tax credit. If the company expects to be able to sell the car and charging station for 40% of the base price of the car alone at the end of 3 years, should the company purchase or lease the car? Use an interest rate of 10% per year and annual worth analysis.
Answer:
Nissan's all-electric car, the Leaf
PV cost of Leaf Purchase = $16,529
PV cost of Leasing = $12,944.78
The company should lease the car.
Explanation:
a) Costs incurred to purchase the Leaf:
Base price $32,780
less Federal tax credit ($7,500)
Charging station 2,200
less 50% tax credit (1,100)
Cash paid $26,380
Sales value after 3 yrs (9,851) ( $26,380 - 40% of base discounted to PV)
Net PV Investment $16,529
b) Calculation of Discounted Present Values of Payments under Leasing, using online financial calculator:
PV (Present Value) $12,944.78
N (Number of Periods) 3.000
I/Y (Interest Rate) 10.000%
PMT (Periodic Payment) $4,200.00
Starting Investment $2,500.00
Total Principal $15,100.00
Total Interest $2,129.50
c) The purchase of the Leaf would involve a present value cost of $26,380 after deducting all the savings from tax. The 40% sales value of the car at the end of 3 years = $13,112 ($32,780 x 40%). When this sales value is discounted to PV of $9,851, the PV of the car investments becomes $16,529 ($26,380 - $9,851). On the other hand, leasing will cost in PV the sum of $12,944.78

Wesimann Co. issued 12-year bonds a year ago at a coupon rate of 7.8 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments and have a par value of $1,000. If the YTM on these bonds is 6.1 percent, what is the current bond price? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
Price of bond =1,143.18
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond for Wesimann Co can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
Semi annul interest payment
= 7.8% × 1000 × 1/2 = 39
Semi-annual yield = 6.1%/2 = 3.05 % per six months
Total period to maturity (in months)
= (2 × 12) = 24 periods (Note it was sold 12 years ago)
PV of interest =
39 × (1- (1+0.0305)^(-24)/) 0.0305 = 656.94
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 1,000 × (1.0305)^(-24) = 486.237
Price of bond
= 656.94 +486.23 = 1,143.179
Price of bond =1,143.18

Assume a competitive firm faces a market price of $70, a cost curve of
C = 0.003q3 + 50q + 750
and a marginal cost of:
Mc= 0.009q2 + 50.
The firm's profit maximizing output level is______units and the per unit profit at this output level is $______.
This firm will_____in the short run The firm will realize______. In the long-run, if circumstances do not change, this firm will_____.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of Output level is shown below:-
The equilibrium condition of competitive firms will be
P = MC
70 = 0.009q^2 + 50
0.009q^2 = 70 - 50
0.009q^2 = 20
q^2 = 20 ÷ 0.009
q^2 = 2,222.222222
So,
q = 47.14045208
or
= 47.14
The computation of profit per unit is shown below:-
Total profit = Total sales - Total cost
= ($70 × 47.14) - (0.003q^3 + 50q + 750)
= $3299.8 - {0.003 (47.14)^3 + 50 × 47.14 + 500}
= -$121.460639032
or
= -$121.46
Profit per unit = Total profit ÷ Output
= -$121.46 ÷ 47.14
= -$2.58
The computation of Produce or shutdown is shown below:-
Total variable cost (TVC) = 0.003q^3 + 50q
= 0.003 (47.14)^3 + 50 × 47.14
= 2671.260639
or
= 2,671.26
AVC = Total cost ÷ Output
= 2,671.26 ÷ 47.14
= 56.66652524
or
= 56.67
Here, $70 which is the market price is higher than AVC that is 56.67, so the company will produce
The firm will realize an economic loss in the long run. If the situation will not modify, this firm will shut down.
In the short term, the company can deliver as its marginal income exceeds the marginal cost. Yet in the long run, the company would suffer an economic loss because the average income per unit is smaller than the average expense per unit. But it would suffer a loss in the long run, but then would prefer to shut down.
Assume the MPC is 0.8. Assuming only the multiplier effect matters, a decrease in government purchases of $100 billion will shift the aggregate demand curve to the:__________
a. left by $180 billion.
b. left by $500 billion.
c. right by $180 billion.
d. right by $400 billion.
Answer:
b. left by $500 billion.
Explanation:
Given marginal propensity to consume, MPC = 0.8
Marginal propensity to consume + Marginal propensity to save = 1
MPC + MPS = 1
0.8 + MPS = 1
MPS = 1-0.8
MPS = 0.2
Now, the government multiplier = 1/MPS
The government multiplier = 1 / 0.2 = 5
Total fall in aggregate demand = Government multiplier × Government purchases
= 5 ×100
= $500
Since there is a fall in spending so the aggregate demand curve will shift leftwards.
Therefore, the correct option is b. left by $500 billion.

Piedmont Hotels is an all-equity company. Its stock has a beta of .82. The market risk premium is 6.9 percent and the risk-free rate is 4.5 percent. The company is considering a project that it considers riskier than its current operations so it wants to apply an adjustment of 1.7 percent to the project's discount rate. What should the firm set as the required rate of return for the project?
Answer:
11.86%
Explanation:
Piedmont hotels can be described as an all-equity company
Its stock has a beta of 0.82
The market risk premium is 6.9%
The risk free rate is 4.5%
The adjustment is 1.7%
Therefore, the required rate of return can be calculated as follows
Required rate of return= Risk free rate of return + ( beta×market risk premium) + adjustment
= 4.5% + (0.82×6.9%) + 1.7%
= 4.5% + 5.658 + 1.7%
= 11.86%
Hence the required rate of return for the project is 11.86%

P 9–3: Dürnstein Schnapps
Durnstein Schnapps produces three types of schnapps from locally grown Austrian pears, plums, and cherries. Schnapps is a
clear, colorless beverage distilled from fermented fruit that normally contains about 40 percent alcohol. The pear and plum
schnapps are produced using an identical process whereby the pears, and plums are fermented and then distilled. The cherry
schnapps employs a similar production process but requires more direct labor to produce the unique and highly prized Durnstein
Cherry Schnapps. Each variety of schnapps (pears, plums, and cherries) is produced in batches of 500 liters and then bottled.
Durnstein Schnapps uses an absorption costing system to assign overhead to its three products for inventory costing. A
single, predetermined, plantwide overhead rate is computed using a flexible manufacturing overhead budget. Variable
manufacturing overhead is budgeted to be €16.00 per direct labor hour and fixed manufacturing overhead is budgeted to be €
845,000 for the year. The following table summarizes budgeted and operating data for the last fiscal year.
Pear Plum Cherry
Actual batches
520 370 210
Budgeted number of batches 500 400 200
Actual direct hours per batch 17 15 34
Budgeted direct labor hours per

batch
Durnstein Schnaps incurred actual manufacturing overhead last year of € 1,250,500.
Required:
a. Calculate Durnstein Schnapp's plantwide overhead rate for last year.
b. One batch of plum schnapps used 20 direct labor hours. How much manufacturing overhead was absorbed by this one
batch?
c. How much over/underabsorbed overhead did Dürnstein Schnapps have last year?
Page 429
d. Recommend discuss how Durnstein Schnapps is likely to account for the over/underabsorbed overhead you
calculated in part(c).
Answer:
Dürnstein Schnapps
a. Durnstein Schnapp's Plantwide Overhead Rate for last year:
= Budgeted overhead/total budgeted direct labour hours
= € 1,216,200/23,200
= €52.42
b. Manufacturing overhead absorbed by one batch of plum schnapps using 20 direct labor hours
= Overhead rate * direct labor hours
= €52.42 * 20
= €1,048.40
c. Determination of over/underabsored overhead last year:
= Total budgeted manufacturing overhead minus actual manufacturing overhead
= € 1,216,200 - € 1,250,500
= € 34,500 under absorbed
d. Durnstein Schnapps will adjust the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory in order to account for the underabsored overhead in part (c).
The purpose is to reflect eh true absorption cost of products and ending inventory.
Explanation:
Data and Calculations:
Variable manufacturing overhead (budgeted) = €16.00 per direct labor
Fixed manufacturing overhead (budgeted) = € 845,000 for the year
Budgeted and operating data for the last fiscal year:
Pear Plum Cherry
Actual batches 520 370 210
Budgeted number of batches 500 400 200
Actual direct hours per batch 17 15 34
Budgeted direct labor hours per 18 18 35
batch
Total budgeted direct labor hours
(500*18) (400*18) (200*35) 9,000 7,200 7,000 23,200
Total actual direct labor hours
(520 * 17) (370 * 15) ( 210 * 34) 8,840 5,550 7,140 21,530
Durnstein Schnaps incurred actual manufacturing overhead last year of € 1,250,500.
Budgeted manufacturing last year = Budgeted direct labor hours * Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labour hour + Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead
= 23,200 x €16.00 + € 845,00
= €371,200 + €845,00
= € 1,216,200
b) Absorption costing is a method that Durnstein Schnapps can use to calculate the costs of its variety of schnapps by including direct and indirect costs. It is not like marginal or variable costing method that uses only the variable elements of production costs in arriving at the costs of Durnstein schnapps. The absorption costing method tries to capture all production costs and absorb them into the costs of the pear, plums, and cherries schnapps in order to determine their appropriate prices. Variable costing method does not treat overhead production costs as product costs, but as period costs.
Because risk is associated with the potential for higher profits, businesspersons are motivated to choose organizational forms that limit their liability while allowing them to take risks that may lead to greater profits. True or False?
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Remember, business persons are profit oriented, and so they are willing to make needed organisational decisions to achieve their profit goals while reducing their liability (loses).
For example, an organization may choose the hierarchical structure; where instructions flows from top level management to bottom instead of the divisional structure, which allows a spread of authority if deems it to limit their liability while allowing them to take risks that may lead to greater profits.
g Delta of a call option is 0.85. How many units of the underlying stock should you hold to hedge a short position in 100 call option contracts
Answer: a.85,000
Explanation:
When using Delta to determine how many units of the underlying stock one should hold to hedge a short position, the following formula is used;
= Delta * No. of positions
= 0.85 * ( 100 * 100)
= 8,500
8,500 units of the underlying stock should be held to hedge a short position in 100 call option contracts with a contract multiplier of 100.

The budgeted inventory at the end of a month is 40 percent of units to be sold the following month.
The purchase price per unit is $5.
To calculate the production required for each month, we need to use the following formula:
Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
January:
Sales= 160,000
Desired ending inventory= (160,000*0.4)= 64,000
Beginning inventory= (30,000)
Total= 164,000
Total cost= 164,000*5= $820,000
February:
Sales= 130,000
Desired ending inventory= (200,000*0.4)= 80,000
Beginning inventory= (64,000)
Total= 146,000
Total cost= 146,000*5= $730,000
March:
Sales= 200,000
Desired ending inventory= (215,000*0.4)= 86,000
Beginning inventory= (80,000)
Total= 206,000
Total cost= 206,000*5= $1,030,000
April:
Sales= 215,000
Desired ending inventory= (180,000*0.4)= 72,000
Beginning inventory= (86,000)
Total= 201,000
Total cost= 201,000*5= $1,005,000
May:
Sales= 180,000
Desired ending inventory= (240,000*0.4)= 96,000
Beginning inventory= (72,000)
Total= 204,000
Total cost= 204,000*5= $1,020,000
Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, is the largest shopping day of the year. Do the early shoppers, who often wait in line for hours in the cold to get doorbuster sale items, have elastic or inelastic demand?
Answer:
Early shoppers have elastic demand because of the quantity demanded. That changes significantly as the result of a price change. Elastic means ‘sensitive’. Which means shoppers are responding to Black Friday deals currently happening so they can buy products they/want/need at the prices they wish to spend.
Answer: I personally would say the shoppers who wait in line for hours have an elastic demand.
Explanation: The reason why they have an elastic demand is because an elastic demand means when an elastic product is defined as one where a change in the price of the product leads to a significant change in the demand for that product. Which the people waiting outside are buying the item due to the change in price.

Sandy purchases a perpetuity-immediate that makes annual payments. The first payment is 100, and each payment thereafter increases by 10. Danny purchases a perpetuity-due which makes annual payments of 180. Using the same annual effective interest rate, i > 0, the present value of both perpetuities are equal. Calculate i.
Answer:
The value of i = 10.2%
Explanation:
The complete working including all the steps have been done and attached as an image herewith. I will attempt to elaborate on those steps below:
Put down Sandy's and Danny's purchases first and equate them. Write down the expression for [tex]d[/tex] and substitute. You will obtain a quadratic equation that you can simply solve by applying the formula.
An investor is in a 30% tax bracket. If corporate bonds offer 9% yields, what must municipals offer for the investor to prefer them to corporate bonds?
Answer:
6.30%
Explanation:
For offering for the investor to prefer them to the corporate bond we need to calculate the after tax return which is shown below
After tax return is
= Before tax return × (1 - tax rate)
= 0.09 × (1 - 0.30)
= 0.063 or 6.30%
As the after tax return is 6.30% the same is to be offered for the investor
Hence, the correct answer is 6.30%

Adrian T. Corporation is a wholesaler that sells a single product. Management has provided the following cost data for two levels of monthly sales volume. Sales units 5000 10000 Cost of goods sold $117000 $193000 Selling and Administrative costs $588000 $637000 Selling price per unit $170 $170 Q: The best estimate of the net operating income if 6620 units are sold is:
Answer:
net operating income = $379,900
Explanation:
we can use the high-low cost method to determine the fixed and variable manufacturing costs:
variable cost per unit = (highest activity cost - lowest activity cost) / (highest activity units - lowest activity units) = ($193,000 - $117,000) / (10,000 - 5,000) = $76,000 / 5,000 = $15.20 per unit
fixed costs = highest activity cost - (variable cost per unit x highest activity units) = $193,000 - ($15.20 x 10,000) = $193,000 - $152,000 = $41,000
cost of goods sold for 6,620 units = (6,620 x $15.20) + $41,000 = $141,624
now we do the same for the administrative expenses:
variable cost per unit = ($637,000 - $588,000) / (10,000 - 5,000) = $49,000 / 5,000 = $9.80
fixed costs = $637,000 - ($9.80 x 10,000) = $637,000 - $98,000 = $539,000
S&A expenses for 6,620 units = (6,620 x $9.80) + $539,000 = $603,876
net income = $1,125,400
- COGS = $141,624
gross profit = $983,776
- S&A expenses = $603,876
net operating income $379,900
Joey's Lawn cutting Service rents office space from Joey's dad for $300 per month. Joey's dad is thinking of increasing the rent to $400 per month (but will not change the cost of mowing an additional lawn). As a result, after the rent hike, Joey's marginal cost of cutting grass will a. increase by $100 divided by the amount of grass cut. b. increase by $100. c. decrease by $100. d. not change.
Answer:
not change
Explanation:
marginal cost is the change in cost by increasing production by one unit. Joey's marginal cost would be unaffected by the increase in rent because Joey has not increased the amount of grass he cuts.
the rents constitutes a fixed cost. Fixed cost is cost that does not vary with production
On April 1, 2016, Cyclone's Backhoe Co. purchases a trencher for $286,000. The machine is expected to last five years and have a salvage value of $43,000. Compute depreciation expense for both years ending December 2016 and 2017 assuming the company uses the straight-line method.
Answer:
2016 - $36,450
2017 - $48,600
Explanation:
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($286,000 - $43,000) / 5 = $48,600
the depreciation expense each year would be $48,600 except in 2016 because it the machine was only used for 9 months
Depreciation expense in 2016 = (9 / 12) x $48,600 = $36,450

Spartan Corporation discovered these errors in August of Year 3: Reported Net Income for Year 1 was $20,000. Reported Net Income for Year 2 was $18,000. The correct Year 2 Net Income is:
Answer:

Explanation:
I looked for the missing information and found this:
Year Depreciation overstated Prepaid expense omitted
1 $2,500 $2,000
2 $4,000 $2,700
If your question doesn't include the same values, just adjust the answer.
Year 2's net income = net income (year 2) + overstated depreciation (year 2) + omitted prepaid expenses (year 1) - omitted prepaid expenses (year 2) = $18,000 + $4,000 + $2,000 - $2,700 = $21,300
