The manager of a crew that installs wood floors has tracked the crew's output over the past several weeks. Each worker works 40 hours per week and earns $17 per hour. The wholesale cost of lumber to the company is $5 per square foot and the company charges its customers $15 per square foot of flooring installed.
Week Crew Size Lumber Used (sq. ft.) Flooring Installed (sq. ft.)
1 4 480 420
2 3 351 325
3 2 250 238
a. Calculate labor productivity for each of the weeks.
b. Suppose that in addition to labor cost and wholesale lumber cost, the firm's overhead is 120% of its labor cost. Calculate multifactor productivity for each of the weeks shown.
Answer:
Week Crew Size Lumber Used Flooring Installed
(sq. ft.) (sq. ft.)
1 4 480 420
2 3 351 325
3 2 250 238
a)
labor productivity = total output / number of employees
week 1 ⇒ 420 / 4 = 105 sq. ft. of floors installed per worker
week 2 ⇒ 325 / 3 = 108.33 sq. ft. of floors installed per worker
week 3 ⇒ 238 / 2 = 119 sq. ft. of floors installed per worker
b)
multi-factor productivity = total output in $ / (labor + materials + overhead)
week 1 ⇒ (420 x $15) / [(4 x 40 x $17) + (480 x $5) + (4 x 40 x $17 x 1.2) = $6,300 / ($2,720 + $2,400 + $3,264) = 0.75
week 2 ⇒ (325 x $15) / [(3 x 40 x $17) + (351 x $5) + (3 x 40 x $17 x 1.2) = $4,875 / ($2,040 + $1,755 + $2,448) = 0.78
week 3 ⇒ (238 x $15) / [(2 x 40 x $17) + (250 x $5) + (2 x 40 x $17 x 1.2) = $3,570 / ($1,360 + $1,250 + $1,632) = 0.84
One of the problems with licensing as a method of achieving international business is that it is a much more difficult procedure to implement than the other methods.
a. True
b. False
Answer: False
Explanation:
Licensing involves a company giving another company in another country/market permission to produce its products or use its likeness. The company that gets the license will then pay the parent company specified amounts for being able to do so.
This method of international business is cheap as the company licensing will see its brand spread to other countries without actually having to worry about set-up costs in the other country which can be very high. It is therefore one of the easiest methods of expanding to international markets there is.
Media Bias Inc. issued bonds 10 years ago at $1,000 per bond. These bonds had a 35-year life when issued and the annual interest payment was then 13 percent. This return was in line with the required returns by bondholders at that point in time as described below: Real rate of return 5 % Inflation premium 4 Risk premium 4 Total return 13 % Assume that 10 years later, due to good publicity, the risk premium is now 3 percent and is appropriately reflected in the required return (or yield to maturity) of the bonds. The bonds have 25 years remaining until maturity.
Answer:
remaining time to maturity 25 years, annual coupon
face value $1,000
when the bonds were issued, the market interest rate was 13%, which was identical to the coupon rate, therefore, the bonds were sold at par
now, 10 years later, the market interest rate is 12% (1% less), so the current market price is:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 12%)²⁵ = $58.82
PV of coupon payments = $130 x 7.8431 (PV annuity factor, 25 periods, 12%) = $1,019.63
bond's current market price = $58.82 + $1,019.63 = $1,078.45
Your auto dealer gives you the choice to pay $15,500 cash now, or make three payments: $8,200 now, $4,200 in one year and $3,200 in two years. If your cost of money (discount rate) is 7.25%, what is the PV of the installment plan?
Answer:
The answer is $14,898.07
Explanation:
Assume that the cost of money (discount rate) of 7.25% is on annual basis.
Present value (PV) of the installment plan is:
PV = Down payment + PV(first installment) + PV(second installment)
= $8,200 + $4,200 / (1 + 7.25%) + $3,200 / (1 + 7.25%)^2 = $14,898.07
Obviously, the three payments option is more lucrative than the 100% down payment one.
Activity-Based Costing: Selling and Administrative Expenses Jungle Junior Company manufactures and sells outdoor play equipment. Jungle Junior uses activity-based costing to determine the cost of the sales order processing and the customer return activity. The sales order processing activity has an activity rate of $20 per sales order, and the customer return activity has an activity rate of $100 per return. Jungle Junior sold 2,500 swing sets, which consisted of 750 orders and 80 returns.
Required:
a. Determine the total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets.
b. Determine the per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Answer: 1}ToTAL Activity cost =$23,000
2a) Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale=$6.00
2b)customer return activity per unit sale=$3.20
Explanation:
a. total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets
Sales order Processing Activity =Number of orders x rate per sales order
=750 x 20 = $15,000
customer return activity = Number of returns x rate per return
= 80 x 100= $8,000
ToTAL Activity cost = Sales order Processing Activity +customer return activity= $15,000 + $8000 = $23,000
b)per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets
Cost of Sale order processing = $15,000
Number of swing set sold = 2,500
Therefore Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale = Cost of Sale order processing/ Number of swing set sold = $15,000/ 2,500= $6.00
customer return activity cost = $8,000
Number of swing set sold = 2,500
Therefore customer return activity per unit sale= customer return activity cost / Number of swing set sold = $8,000/ 2,500= $3.20
ToTAL Activity cost per unit sale = Sales order Processing Activity cost per unit +customer return activity cost per unit = $6.00 + $3.20 = $9.20
Conventional wisdom says one should measure a manager's investment performance over an entire market cycle. What arguments support this contention? What arguments contradict it?
Answer:
In every form of analysis, it is always safer to take a macro or holistic view of the situation. This is true for the investment performance of a manager. One investment decision that went right does not suffice to classify an investment portfolio manager as proficient, neither is one that went south enough to tag him deficient.
The forecasting ability of managers, on the balance of probability, will vary for different cases, with a helicopter view of providing a more accurate measure of their performance.
However, if it was possible to analyse the market for volatility and adjust our forecasts it becomes unnecessary to look at and analyse all the information from a 12-month cycle before coming to terms about the performance of the manager.

A retail operation has an average gross margin of 35%. If the average monthly sales for the store is $200,000.00, what is the cost of goods sold?
Answer:
COGS= $130,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A retail operation has an average gross margin of 35%.
Sales= $200,000.00
To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:
Gross margin= sales - COGS
COGS= sales - gross margin
COGS= 200,000 - (200,000*0.35)
COGS= $130,000
Using the information below for Laurels Company; determine the cost of goods manufactured during the current year: Direct materials used $6,100 Direct Labor 8,100 Total Factory overhead 6,200 Beginning work in process 4,100 Ending work in process 6,200a. $19,700b. $16,900c. $18,300d. $12,800e. $14,800
Answer:
c. $18,300
Explanation:
The computation of cost of goods manufactured during the current year is shown below:-
Cost of goods manufactured during the current year = Direct material + Direct labor + Total factory overhead + Beginning Work in progress - Ending work in progress
= $6,100 + $8,100 + $6,200 + $4,100 - $6,200
= $24,500 - $6,200
= $18,300
Hence, the correct option is c. $18,300
A creamery shop sells its special ice cream for $4.50 a quart. It costs them $3.00 a quart to make it. The daily demand for this flavor is normally distributed with a mean of 35 quarts and a standard deviation of 4 quarts. Unsold ice cream is sold each day to a local restaurant at $1.50 per quart. What is the service level and corresponding optimal stocking level?
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the service level and the corresponding optimal stocking level is shown below:
Given that
Selling price = SP = $4.50
Cost price = CP = $3.00
So,
Salvage value = V = $1.50
Average daily demand (d) = 35 quarts
The standard deviation of daily demand = 4 quarts
based on the above information
Overage cost = (Co) is
= CP - V
= $3.00 - $1.50
= $1.50
Now
Underage cost= (Cu)
= SP - CP
= $4.50 - $3.00
= $1.50
So,
Service level is
= Cu ÷ (Co + Cu)
= 1.50 ÷ (1.50 + 1.50)
= 1.50 ÷ 3.00
= 0.50
= 50%
Now
At 50 % service level, the value of Z is 0
So,
Optimal stocking level is
= d + Z × standard deviation
= 35 + (0 × 4)
= 35 + 0
= 35 quarts
An all-equity firm is considering the following projects:
Project Beta IRR
W .85 8.9%
X .92 10.8
Y 1.09 12.8
Z 1.35 13.3
The T-bill rate is 4 percent, and the expected return on the market is 11 percent.
a. Which projects have a higher expected return than the firm's 11 percent cost of capital?
b. Which projects should be accepted?
c. Which projects would be incorrectly accepted or rejected if the firm's overall cost of capital were used as a hurdle rate?
Answer:
Projects Y and Z
b. Projects W and Z
c. Projects W and Y
Explanation:
CAPM equation : Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta x (Expected market return - Risk free rate)
W = 4% + [0.85 x (11% - 4%)] = 9.95%
X = 4% + (0.92 x 7%) = 10.44%
Y = 4% + (1.09 x 7%) = 11.63%
Z = 4% + (1.35 x 7%) = 13.45%
Projects Y and Z have an expected return greater than 11%
b. Projects W and Z should be accepted because its expected return is higher than the IRR
c. Project W would be incorrectly rejected because the expected rate of return is less than the overall cost of capital (i.e. 9.95 is less than 11). But its expected rate of return is greater than the IRR
Y would be incorrectly accepted because its expected rate of return is greater than the overall cost of capital but its expected rate of return is less than the IRR

A decrease in the basis will __________ a long hedger and __________ a short hedger. Group of answer choices hurt; hurt hurt; benefit benefit; have no effect upon benefit; benefit benefit; hurt
Answer:
hurt, benefit
Explanation:
The basis in a future contract is defined as the difference between the spot price of the asset in the cash market and the price of the same assets future contract.
A short hedge is an investment strategy that is used to protect hedge, against the risk of future decline in asset price or basically to hedge against potential losses by selling at a determined rate. This means that when one is in possession of a commodity and in order to protect against a decline, in the market, you sell (go short) the future contract , while long hedge is when you anticipate a need for the underlying commodity in the future. It means that to protect against an increase in the market price, you buy (go long) the future contract. Then when you are ready to buy the commodity, any increase in the market price is offset by your gain on the future contract.
The above means that where an asset and a contract are liquidated before due dates , there would be basis risk hence both the future and spot price need not move in lockstep before delivery date. This means that a decrease in the basis will benefit the short hedger and hurt the long hedger.

Required:
Prepare a statement of cost of goods manufactured.
Answer:
Cost of goods manufactured= $490,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Overhead:
Indirect material usage 10,000
Indirect labor 10,000
Factory water and electricity 20,000
Depreciation-factory 50,000
Total overhead= 90,000
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
Direct materials= 100,000 + 20,000 - 30,000= 90,000
cost of goods manufactured= 60,000 + 90,000 + 300,000 + 90,000 - 50,000
cost of goods manufactured= $490,000
On January 1, 2018, Lizzy's Lemonade issues 5%, 20-year bonds with a face amount of $81,000 for $71,638, priced to yield 6%. Interest is paid semiannually. What amount of interest expense will be recorded on June 30, 2018, the first interest payment date
Answer:
The amount of $2,149.14 will be recorded on June 30, 2018 , the first interest payment date.
Explanation:
The data below were extracted from the above information
Face amount $81,000
rate 5%
Issue price $71,638
Yield 6%
Since we already know that interest is paid semi annually, then ;
Amount of interest expense will be = issue price × yield
= $71,638 × 6% × 1/2
= $2,149.14
Amount of interest expense is therefore $2,149.14, to be recorded on June 30, 2018, the first interest payment date.
Your investment has a 20% chance of earning a 30% rate of return, a 50% chance of earning a 10% rate of return, and a 30% chance of losing 6%. What is your expected return on this investment
Answer:
9.2%
Explanation:
expected return of the investment = potential return x chance of each return happening
Expected return of the investment:
20% chance of occurring x 30% potential return = 0.2 x 30% = 6%50% chance of occurring x 10% potential return = 0.5 x 10% = 5%30% chance of occurring x -6% potential return = 0.3 x -6% = -1.8%total expected return = 9.2%The Busby Corporation had a share price at the start of the year of $26.20, paid a dividend of $0.56 at the end of the year, and had a share price of $29.00 at the end of the year. Which of the following is closest to the rate of return of investments in companies with equal risk to The Busby Corporation for this period?
A) 5%
B) 7%
C) 9%
D) 13%
Answer:
D) 13%
Explanation:
Calculation for the percentage that is closest to the rate of return of investments
First step is to find the balance amount of the share price using this formula
Share price =(End of the year Share price + End of the year dividend)-Start of the year Share price
Let plug in the formula
Share price =($29.00+$0.56)-$26.20
Share price =$29.56-$26.20
Share price =$3.36
Second step is to find the rate of return of investments
Using this formula
Rate of return of investments= Share price/Start of the year Share price
Rate of return of investments
Let plug in the formula
Rate of return of investments=$3.36/$26.20
Rate of return of investments=0.13*100
Rate of return of investments=13%
Therefore the percentage that is closest to the rate of return of investments in companies with equal risk to The Busby Corporation for this perio will be 13%
EHealth Corporation has $1,000 par value bonds with 4 years to maturity. The bonds pay an 8% coupon rate with semi-annual coupon interest payments. The bond's closing price is quoted at 103.75. Suppose you purchase the bond for the closing price. What is the bond's yield to maturity?
Answer:
Yield to Maturity(YTM) = 3.47%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity is the required rate of return (discount rate) that would equate the price of the bond and cash outflow expected from the bond. The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:
YTM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)
YTM-Yield to maturity-
C- coupon
F- Face Value
P- Current Price
DATA
Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 8%× 1/2=40(note we divide by 2 because interest is paid semi-annually)
n= 4×2 = 8 (note there 2 half months in a year)
Face Value = 1000
YM-?, C-40, Face Value - 1,000, P-103.75/100× 1000 = 1037.5
YM = (40 + (1000-1037)/8) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 1037.5 ) ) =0.0347
YM = 0.0347 × 100 = 3.47%
Yield to Maturity = 3.47%

a. 20,000.
b. 22,500.
c. 25,000 .
d. 27,000.
Answer: b. 22,500
Explanation:
J should use the total number of outstanding common stock at end of year to calculate 2018 basic earnings.
As a result of the Stock-split, the shares are split into 2 for 1.
There were 10,000 shares split so;
= 10,000 * 2
= 20,000
On the 1st of July, 5,000 shares were issued. This means that up till December 2021, the stock was outstanding for 6 months.
This will reflected by;
= 5,000 * 6/12
= 2,500 shares
Total shares = 20,000 + 2,500
= 22,500 shares
2. A constraint which represents a target value for a problem is called a a. fuzzy constraint. b. vague constraint. c. preference constraint d. soft constraint
Answer: soft constraint
Explanation:
The soft constraint is defined as
a constraint on a random variable (X)that permits overruling the constraint.a function from the domains in its scope(set of variables ) into a real number.Hence, a constraint which represents a target value for a problem is called a soft constraint.
Thus the correct option is d. soft constraint.
Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $20 per unit and whose variable expense is $17 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $8,100. Required: If the company's fixed expenses increase by $600, what would become the new break-even point in dollar sales?
Answer:
the new break-even point in dollar sales is $29,000.
Explanation:
Break even point is the level of activity where a firm makes neither a profit nor a loss.
Break even point (dollar sales) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio
Where, Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales
= ($20 - $17) ÷ $20
= 0.30
New Break even point (dollar sales) = ($8,100 + $600) ÷ 0.30
= $29,000
Denise contracts with Long Life Insurance Co., agreeing to pay premiums in return for which the company agrees to pay $500,000 to Denise's husband Barn when Denise dies. Barn is a(n):
Answer:
Donee Beneficiary
Explanation:
In the scenario being described, it can be said that Barn is a Donee Beneficiary. This is a third-party beneficiary that occurs when the second party in the contract does not owe anything to the third party but wants to provide them with the benefit of the performance of the first party. Which since in this scenario, Denise wants to provide Barn with all the benefits of the contract even though she does not owe him anything, then it technically makes Barn a Donee Beneficiary to the Long Life Insurance Contract.
