Answers

Answer:

Working capital = $ 374,000

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the company’s working capital at December 31, 2021

Formula for Working Capital

Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

First is to find the Current assets

Current assets =Cash $40,000 + Accounts receivable 170,000 +Raw materials 44,000+Work in process 62,000 +Finished goods 109,000 +Notes receivable 120,000 +Interest receivable 23,000 +Investment in debt securities 52,000+Prepaid rent 40,000 (80,000/2)

Current assets=$660,000

Second step is to find the Current liabilities

Current liabilities =Interest payable $25,000+Accounts payable 200,000+Deferred revenue 28,000 (56,000/2) +Allowance for uncollectible accounts 33,000

Current liabilities =$286,000

Let plug in the formula

Working capital =$660,000 - $286,000

Working capital = $ 374,000

Therefore the company’s working capital at December 31, 2021 will be $374,000

Suppose that you have an old car that is a real gas guzzler. It is 10 years old and could be sold to a local dealer for ​$ cash. The annual maintenance costs will average ​$ per year into the foreseeable​ future, and the car averages only miles per gallon. Gasoline costs ​$ per​ gallon, and you drive miles per year. You now have an opportunity to replace the old car with a better one that costs ​$. If you buy​ it, you will pay cash. Because of a​ 2-year warranty, the maintenance costs are expected to be negligible. This car averages miles per gallon. Should you keep the old car or replace​ it? Utilize a​ 2-year comparison period and assume that the new car can be sold for ​$ at the end of year 2. Assume that the salvage value of the old car at the end of year 2 will be​ $0. Ignore the effect of income taxes and let your MARR be ​%.

Answers

Answer:

you should replace the old car with a newer and more efficient one

Explanation:

all the numbers are missing, so I looked them up:

current sale value of old car $400

maintenance costs per year $800

gasoline expense per year = $3.50 x 1/10 x 15,000 = $5,250

resale value in 2 years = $0

cost of replacing old car = $8,000

maintenance costs per year $0

gasoline expense per year = $3.50 x 1/30 x 15,000 = $1,750

resale value in 2 years = $5,000

MARR = 15%

if you keep the old car, your net cash flows will be:

Year 1 = -$6,050

Year 2 = -$6,050

if you change your car, your net cash flows will be:

Year 0 = -$8,000 + $400 = -$7,600

Year 1 = -$1,750

Year 2 = $3,250

keeping the old car results in a NPV = -$6,050/1.15 - $6,050/1.15² = -$5,260.87 - $4,574.67 = -$9,835.54

changing for a new car results in a NPV = -$7,600 -$1,750/1.15 + $3,250/1.15² = -$7,600 -$1,521.74 + $2,457.47 = -$6,664.27

since both options result in negative cash flows, we must select the option that results in a smaller loss

_____ media are specifically designed to help bring customers eyeball to eyeball with the product--often at the point of sale or close to it.

This question is incomplete, the options are missing. The options are the following:

a) Exhibitive.

b) Transit.

c) Direct mail.

d) Outdoor.

e) Print.

And the correct answer is the option A: Exhibitive.

Explanation:

To begin with, the term known as "Exhibitive Media", in the field of marketing and business, refers to the strategy used by the companies whose approach is in the point of sale marketing. This type of strategy focus on exhibiting the product to the costumer the closer as possible so it will generate an impulse on the client of buying the product without having it thought before seeing the product. A very common example of this strategy is the situation in where the supermarkets fill their lines to the cashier with other retails that have product that are attractive at first sight.

Harry Company sells 20,000 units at $42 per unit. Variable costs are $26.88 per unit, and fixed costs are $105,800. Determine (a) the contribution margin ratio, (b) the unit contribution margin, and (c) income from operations.

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Harry Company sells 20,000 units at $42 per unit. Variable costs are $26.88 per unit, and fixed costs are $105,800.

To calculate the contribution margin ratio, we need to use the following formula:

contribution margin ratio= contribution margin / selling price

contribution margin ratio= (42 - 26.88) / 42

contribution margin ratio= 0.36

Now, the contribution margin:

Contribution margin= 42 - 26.88= $15.12

Finally, income from operations:

Contribution margin= 20,000*15.12= 302,400

Fixed costs= (105,800)

Net operating income= 196,600

Mojo Mining has a bond outstanding that sells for $2,120 and matures in 18 years. The bond pays semiannual coupons and has a coupon rate of 6.66 percent. The par value is $2,000. If the company's tax rate is 40 percent, what is the aftertax cost of debt?
A. 3.96%
B. 6.24%
C. 5.82%
D. 3.66%
E. 3.45%

Answers

Answer:

D. 3.66%

Explanation:

For computing the after tax cost of debt we need to apply the RATE formula i.e to be shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Present value = $2,120

Future value or Face value = $2,000

PMT = $2,000 × 6.6% ÷ 2 = $66.60

NPER = 18 years × 2 = 36 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this,  

1. The pretax cost of debt is 3.05% × 2 % = 6.10%

2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be

= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 6.10% × ( 1 - 0.40)

= 3.66%

The company plans to sell 39,000 units of Product WZ in June. The finished goods inventories on June 1 and June 30 are budgeted to be 610 and 110 units, respectively. Budgeted direct labor costs for June would be:

Answers

Answer:

Direct labor cost= $1,232,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Each unit of Product WZ requires 2 hours of direct labor at a rate of $16 per direct labor-hour.

Sales= 39,000 units

Beginning inventory= 610 units

Desired ending inventory= 110 units

First, we need to calculate the production required:

Production= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Production= 39,000 + 110 - 610

Production= 38,500

Now, the direct labor budget:

Direct labor hours= 38,500*2= 77,000 hours

Direct labor cost= 77,000*16= $1,232,000

Countess Corp. is expected to pay an annual dividend of $4.63 on its common stock in one year. The current stock price is $74.11 per share. The company announced that it will increase its dividend by 3.75 percent annually. What is the company's cost of equity?

Answers

Answer:

r = 0.099974 or 9.9974% rounded off to 10.00%

Explanation:

Using the constant growth model of DDM we calculate the price of a stock today which is expected to pay a dividend which increases at a constant rate through out. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price under this model is,

P0 = D1 / r - g

Where,

r is the required rate of return or cost of equityg is the constant growth rate in dividends

Plugging in the available values in the formula, we calculate r to be,

74.11 = 4.63 / (r - 0.0375)

74.11 * (r - 0.0375) = 4.63

74.11r - 2.779125 = 4.63

74.11r = 4.63 + 2.779125

r = 7.409125 / 74.11

r = 0.099974 or 9.9974% rounded off to 10.00%

Zycon has produced 10,000 units of partially finished Product A. These units cost $20,000 to produce, and they can be sold to another manufacturer for $12,000.

Processing further will cost an additional $16,000 and will yield total revenues of $30,000.Required:Identify weather the tem is relevant or irrelevant to the sew or process further decision.

Answers

Answer:

1. $20,000 cost already incurred to a produce. - Irrelevant

This cost has already been incurred in the initial production and as such are classified as sunk costs. Sunk costs are not relevant to the decision on whether to sell or process the product further.

b. $12,000 selling price - Relevant

As this amount relates to the selling price were the product not to be processed further, it is relevant to the sell or process the products further decision.

c. $16,000 additional processing costs - Relevant

This is the incremental cost should the product be processed further and so is relevant to the decision.

d. $30,000 revenues from processing further. - Relevant.

As the total revenue that could be realized if the product is processed further, this is very relevant to the decision on whether to process further or sell.

Brik Products, located in Atlanta, Georgia, produces two lines of electric toothbrushes: Deluxe and Standard. Because Brik can sell all the toothbrushes it produces, the owners are expanding the plant. They are deciding which product line to emphasize. To make this decision, they assemble the following data:

Per Unit

Deluxe Toothbrush Standard Toothbrush

Sales price $94 $54

Variable expenses 22 16

Contribution margin $72 $36

Contribution margin ratio 75.5% 70.4%

After expansion, the factory will have a production capacity of 4.200 machine hours per month. The plant can manufacture either 68 Standard electric toothbrushes or 26 Deluxe electric toothbrushes per machine hour.

Requirements:

1. Identify the constraining factor for Brik Products.

2. Prepare an analysis to show which product line to emphasize.

Answer:

                                                                   Deluxe      Standard

Sale price                                               $94             $54

Variable expense                                         22                16

Contribution margin per unit               $72             $38

Number of toothbrushes per hour               26            68

Total contribution margin per hour        $1,872       $2,584

Decision: Brik Products should emphasize the production and sale of the Standard electric toothbrushes as this rakes in more contribution per the constraining factor, i.e. machine hours.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                                                   Deluxe      Standard

Sale price                                               $94          $54

Variable expense                                         22             16

Contribution margin per unit                 72             38  (not $36)

Contribution margin ratio         76.6% (not 75.5%)   70.4%

Number of toothbrushes per hour               26          68

Machine hours available = 4,200 hours

b) Analysis:

For Brik Products, the contribution margin per machine hour = contribution per unit x units per hour.  Brik will generate a total contribution margin per product line without producing the other that is equal to the contribution margin per machine hour multiplied by total machine hours.

Assuming that Brik Products concentrates on the production of the standard electric toothbrushes alone, it will generate a total contribution margin of $10,852,800 ($2,584 x 4,200) as against the total contribution margin of $7,862,400 ($1,872 x 4,200) to be generated if only Deluxe electric toothbrushes are produced.

Cara Industries incurred the following costs for 50,000 units:


Variable costs $90,000
Fixed costs 120,000


Cara has received a special order from a foreign company for 5,000 units. There is sufficient capacity to fill the order without jeopardizing regular sales. Filling the order will require spending an additional $4,250 for shipping.

If Cara wants to break even on the order, what should the unit sales price be?

A. $4.2

B. $5.05

C.$1.8

D. $2.65

Answers

Answer:

Selling price= $2.65

Explanation:

Because it is a special offer, and there is unused capacity, we will take into account only the incremental fixed costs.

First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:

Unitary variable cost= 90,000/50,000= $1.8

Now, we can determine the total unitary cost and the selling price per unit:

Total unitary cost= (4,250/5,000) + 1.8= $2.65

Selling price= $2.65

Find the net present value of a project that has cash flows of −$12,000 in Year 1, +$5,000 in Years 2 and 3, −$2,000 in Year 4, and +$6,000 in Years 5 and 6. Use an interest rate of 12%. Find the interest rate that gives a net present value of zero.

Answers

Answer:

NPV = $2,000

IRR = 19.19%

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Only firms with a positive NPV should accept the project because a negative NPV indicates that the project would be unprofitable for the firm

the interest rate that gives a net present value of zero is the IRR

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow for year 1 =  −$12,000

Cash flow for year 2 =  $5,000

Cash flow for year 3 =  $5,000

Cash flow for year 4 =  −$2,000

Cash flow for year 5 =  $6,000

Cash flow for year 6 =  $6,000

I = 12%

NPV = $2,000

IRR = 19.19%

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.

A project has cash flows of -152,000, 60,800, 62300, and 75000 for years 0 to 3 respectively. The required rate of return is 13 years percent. Based on the internal rate of return of__________percent, you should________the project.

Answers

Answer:

Based on the IRR of 14.05 percent, you  should be accept the project

Explanation:

Internal rate of Return is the discount rate of that equates the present value of cash inflows to the initial cost. It is the maximum cost of capital that can be used to evaluate a project without causing harm to the shareholders.

It is calculated as follows:

IRR = a% + ( NPVa/(NPVa + NPVb)× (b-a)%

NPV = PV of cash inflows - initial cost

Step 1: NPVa at 13% discount rate

PV of cash inflow =  60,800× 1.13^(-1) + 62300 ×1.13^(-2) +   75000 ×1.13^(-3)

                           =  154,574.11  

NPVa =  154,574.11   - 152000 =  2,574.11  

Step 2: NPVb  at 20%

PV of cash inflow = 60,800× 1.20^(-1) + 62300 ×1.20^(-2) +   75000 ×1.20^(-3)   =  137,333.33  

NPVb =  137,333.33   - 152,000 =  (14,666.67)

Step 3: IRR

IRR = 13% + ( 2,574.11  /(2,574.11  + 14,666.67) )× (20-13)%

IRR = 14.05%

Based on the IRR of 14.05%, the project you  should be accept the project

Since the IRR (14.05%) is greater than the required rate rate (13%) , the project should be accepted. An IRR which is  higher than the hurdle rate implies that the project would increase the wealth of the shareholders

The last dividend paid by Coppard Inc. was $1.25. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 27.5% for 3 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6% forever. If the firm's required return (rs) is 11%, what is its current stock price

Answers

Answer:

36.38

Explanation:

The Current stock price can be calculated by identifying Present value of dividends in all three years adding terminal value of dividends in year 3.

Year Dividend Growth  Dividend   PV factor  Present Values

1  1.25           127.5%   1.59    0.900901         1.43  

 2  1.59           127.5%   2.03           0.811622          1.64  

 3  2.03          127.5%   2.59    0.731191     1.88  

 3                                    42.987(w)  0.731191           31.43  

Total PV                                                                     36.38  

Current Dividend = 2.59    

Rate of return       = 11.00%    

Growth Rate        = 6.00%    

Terminal value = Current Dividend*(1+Growth rate)/(Rate of return-Growth Rate)

Terminal value = 2.59 x (1+0.06) / (0.11-0.06)  

Terminal value =42.987

   

Current stock price = 1.43 +1.64+1.88+31.43

Current stock price = 36.38  

Red Sun Rising just paid a dividend of $2.43 per share. The company said that it will increase the dividend by 15 percent and 10 percent over the next two years, respectively. After that, the company is expected to increase its annual dividend at 4.1 percent. If the required return is 11.5 percent, what is the stock price today

Answers

Answer:

P0 = $39.76

Explanation:

The dividend discount model or DDM can be used to calculate the price of the share today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The price of this stock under this model can be calculated as follows,

P0 = D0 * (1+g1) / (1+r)  + D0 * (1+g1) * (1+g2) / (1+r)^2  +  

[ (D0 * (1+g1) * (1+g2) * (1+g3) / (r - g3)) / (1+r)^2 ]

Where,

g1 is the growth rate in the first year which is 15% g2 is the growth rate in the second year which is 10%  g3 is the constant growth rate which is 4.1% r is the required rate of return P0 is the stock price today

P0 = 2.43 * (1+0.15) / (1+0.115)  +  2.43 * (1+0.15) * (1+0.1) / (1+0.115)^2  +

[ (2.43 * (1+0.15) * (1+0.1) * (1+0.041) / (0.115 - 0.041)) / (1+0.115)^2 ]

P0 = $39.76

Given the following data: Average operating assets $ 504,000 Total liabilities $ 23,520 Sales $ 168,000 Contribution margin $ 85,680 Net operating income $ 45,360 Return on investment (ROI) is:

Answers

Answer:

9%

Explanation:

According to the given situation, the solution of return on investment is shown below:-

Return on investment = (Net operating income ÷ Average operating assets) × 100

now, we will put the values into the above formula

= ($45,360 ÷ $504,000) × 100

= 0.09 × 100

= 9%

Therefore for computing the return on investment we simply applied the above formula.

Answers

Answer:  27,200 units

Explanation:

The ending inventory is calculated as;

Desired Ending Inventory = Beginning Inventory + Inventory produced - Sales in the quarter

(40,000 * 20%) = 3,600 + Inventory produced - 22,800

Inventory produced = 8,000 - 3,600 + 22,800

Inventory Produced = 27,200 units
