Answer:
$90,000
Explanation:
Income = Contribution - Fixed Costs
hence,
Fixed Costs = Contribution - Income
therefore
Fixed Costs = (25,000 x $6) - $60,000
= $150,000 - $60,000
= $90,000
thus,
total fixed costs must be $90,000.
Pencils sell for 10 cents and pens sell for 50 cents. Suppose Jae, whose preferences satisfy all of the basic assumptions, is currently spending all his income on both goods. The marginal rate of substitution for pens to pencils is 5. In order to achieve optimum, what should he do
Answer:
Jae should do nothing and continue purchasing the same amount of pens and pencils.
Explanation:
The current rate of substitution that maximizes Jae's utility is Px / Py = 0.50 / 0.10 = 5. That means that Jae will purchase 5 pencils for every pen that he buys, and that is exactly what he is doing right now.
lannigan Company manufactures and sells a single product that sells for $450 per unit; variable costs are $270. Annual fixed costs are $800,000. Current sales volume is $4,200,000. Compute the current margin of safety in dollars for Flannigan Company
Answer:
$2,200,000
Explanation:
Margin of safety means by how much sales can fall before a firm starts making a loss.
Margin of safety = Current Sales - Break even sales
where,
Break even sales = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio
= $800,000 ÷ 0.40
= $2,000,000
therefore,
Margin of safety = $4,200,000 - $2,000,000
= $2,200,000

The market rate of return is 11 percent and the risk-free rate of return is 3 percent. Lexant stock has 3 percent less systematic risk than the market and has an actual return of 12 percent. This stock:
Answer:
over-priced
Explanation:
According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
Systemic risk are risk that are inherent in the economy. They cannot be diversified away. They are also known as market risk. examples of this risk include recession, inflation, and high interest rates. Investors should seek compensation for systemic risk. Systemic risk is measured by beta. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors
The market has a beta of one. If a portfolio has the same level of systematic risk that is the same as that of the market, its beta would be equal to 1.
If the portfolio is less risky than the market, its beta would be less than one
If the portfolio is more risky than the market, its beta would be greater than one
Lexant stock beta = (100 - 3) x 1
0.97 x 1 = 0.97
3 + 0.97(11 -3)
3 + 8.25

The balance sheets of Davidson Corporation reported net fixed assets of $340,000 at the end of 2016. The fixed-asset turnover ratio for 2016 was 3.0, and sales for the year totaled $1,440,000. Net fixed assets at the end of 2015 were:_________
a) $760,000.
b) $480,000.
c) $620,000.
d) None of these answer choices are correct.
Answer:
$620,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Net fixed assets at the end of 2015 were:
$1,440,000 / Average fixed assets
$1,440,000 / $480,000=3.0
Net fixed assets =[(340,000 + x) / 2] = $480,000
Solve for x
Net fixed assets= $620,000
Therefore Net fixed assets at the end of 2015 were:$620,000
During the current calendar year, Bowman Corporation purchased $660,000 of inventory. The beginning inventory balance was $84,000, and the inventory balance at year-end was $120,000. The inventory turnover for the current year was:
Answer:
6.12 times
Explanation:
Cost of Goods Sold = $84,000 + $660,000 - $120,000
Cost of Goods Sold = $624,000
Average inventory = ($84,000 + $120,000) / 2
Average inventory = $102,000
Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold / Average inventory
Inventory Turnover = $624,000 / $102,000
Inventory Turnover = 6.117647059
Inventory Turnover = 6.12 times

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.
When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.
Cash flow in year 0 = $-81,500
Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = $36,500
Cash flow in year 3 and 4 = $31,500
I - = 10%
NPV = $27,028.45
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
True or False: With a minimum wage of $8.70, unemployment of unskilled workers is lower with the tax credit versus without it.
Answer: True
Explanation:
Generally speaking, a tax credit would bring about a lower unemployment rate for unskilled labor as opposed to a situation where there is no tax credit.
A tax credit would reduce the amount of taxes that a company is to pay which would leave them with more income to reinvest into the business. This reinvestment will lead to the business having a higher production capacity such that it requires more workers so they will hire more workers, both unskilled and skilled thereby reducing the unemployment rate for both.
XYZ Company has a variable cost ratio of 40%, fixed expenses of $200,000, and desires to earn operating income of $100,000. Total sales revenue required to achieve XYZ Company's desired operating income is:
Answer:
Sales revenue = $500,000
Explanation:
Below is the calculation:
Formula for variable cost ratio = Total variable expenses (Total variable cost) / Net Sales = 40%
40% = Total variable cost / Net Sales
Total variable cost = 0.40 Net sales
Operating income = Total revenue - fixed cost - variable cost
100,000 = Total revenue - 200,000 - 0.40 total revenue
300,000 = 0.60 total revenue
Total Revenue = 300,000/ 0.6
Sales revenue = $500,000
Based on a predicted level of production and sales of 12,000 units, a company anticipates reporting operating income of $26,000 after deducting variable costs of $72,000 and fixed costs of $10,000. Based on this information, the budgeted amounts of fixed and variable costs for 15,000 units would be
Answer:
Fixed Cost = $10,000
Variable Costs = $90,000
Explanation:
Variable Cost per unit = $72,000 ÷ 12,000
= $6
Variable Costs at 15,000 units = $6 x 15,000
= $90,000
Fixed Cost (given) = $10,000

Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $19 per unit and whose variable expense is $15 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $12,000. Required: 1. Calculate the company’s break-even point in unit sales. 2. Calculate the company’s break-even point in dollar sales. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) 3. If the company's fixed expenses increase by $600, what would become the new break-even point in unit sales? In dollar sales? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $19
Unitary variable cost= $15
Fixed costs= $12,000
To calculate the break-even point in units and dollars, we need to use the following formulas:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 12,000 / 4
Break-even point in units= 3,000
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 12,000 / (4/19)
Break-even point (dollars)= $57,000
Now, the fixed costs are $12,600:
Break-even point in units= 12,600 / 4
Break-even point in units= 3,150
Break-even point (dollars)= 12,600 / (4/19)
Break-even point (dollars)= $59,850

The cost object of the plantwide overhead rate method is: Multiple Choice The production departments of the company. The unit of product. The production activities of the company.
Answer: The unit of product.
Explanation:
The units produced of the goods being produced will be the appropriate cost object because it will apportion the overhead cost to the plant based on how much goods were produced by the plant itself because this would determine how much overhead the plant used.
Manufacturing overheads only occur because goods are being produced which is why the best cost object would be those same goods being produced.

Pinewood Company purchased two buildings on four acres of land. The lump-sum purchase price was $1,300,000. According to independent appraisals, the fair values were $630,000 (building A) and $280,000 (building B) for the buildings and $490,000 for the land. Required: Determine the initial valuation of the buildings and the land.
Answer:
Pinewood Company
Initial valuation of the buildings and the land are:
Building A = $585,000
Building B = $260,000
Land = $455,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchase price of buildings and land = $1,300,000
Fair values of:
Building A = $630,000
Building B = $280,000
Land = $490,000
Total fair value = $1,400,000
Initial valuation of the buildings and the land are:
Building A = $630,000/$1,400,000 * $1,300,000 = $585,000
Building B = $280,000/$1,400,000 * $1,300,000 = $260,000
Land = $490,000/$1,400,000 * $1,300,000 = $455,000
Total fair value = $1,300,000
