$____. Multiplying this amount by the number of units of output results in an economic
profit of $____.
ii) At the product price of $120, the average total costs are $____, so per-unit economic losses are $____. Multiplying this amount by the number of units of output results in an economic loss of $____.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) At a price $55, the firm would produce 3 units of output.

At a price of $120, the firm would produce 6 units of output.

At a price of $200, the firm would produce 7 units of output.

The rule is Price = Marginal Cost for a competitive firm

b) The per-unit economic profit (or loss) is calculated by subtracting ATC at a particular level of output from the product price. This per-unit economic profit is then multiplied by the number of units of output to determine the economic profit for the competitive firm.

i) At the product price of $200, the average total costs are $146 , so per-unit economic profit is $54 . Multiplying this amount by the number of units of output results in an economic profit of $378 .

Explanation:

At P = 200, output produced is 7 units

ATC is $146

Per-unit economic profit = 200 - 146 = $54

Hence, Total economic profit = $54 x 7 = $378

ii) At the product price of $120, the average total costs are $140 , so per-unit economic losses are $ -20. Multiplying this amount by the number of units of output results in an economic loss of $-100.

Explanation: At P = 20, output produced will be 5 units. 6th unit will not be produced as it will result in even greater loss.

Total loss = ($140 - $120) x 5 = $100

General Electric (GE) has earnings per share of $2.98 and dividends per share of $0.35. Its return on assets (ROA) is 14.6% and its return on equity (ROE) is 18.2%. What is its sustainable rate of growth?

Answers

Answer:

g = 0.1606 or 16.06%

Explanation:

The sustainable growth rate is the growth rate in earning or dividends of a stock that will remain constant in the long run. Such a rate is calculate for an indefinite period of time. The formula to calculate the sustainable growth rate is,

g = RR * ROE

Where,

RR is the retention ratio or (1 - dividend payout ratio)ROE is the return on equity

The dividend per share as a percentage of earnings per share will give us the dividend payout ratio.

Dividend payout ratio = 0.35 / 2.98 = 0.1174 or 11.74%

g = (1 - 11.74%) * 18.2%

g = 0.1606 or 16.06%

Answers

Answer:

The accounts receivable amount expected to be collected after the write-off entry is $378,500

Explanation:

Allowance for bad debt = $34,500

Bad debt written off = $31,400

Credit balance in allowance for bad debts = Allowance for bad debt - Bad debt written off

= $34,500 - $31,400

= $3,100

The balance in receivables account = ($413,000 - $31,400) - ($34,500 - $31,400)

= $381,600 - $3,100

= $378,500

If Tex's Manufacturing Company purchases the component externally, $20,000 of the fixed costs can be avoided. At what external price for the 100 units is the company indifferent between making or buying

Answers

Answer:

$210,000

Explanation:

The computation of the external price is shown below

Making cost =  buying  cost

$120,000 + $25,000 + $45,000 + $30,000) = external price + Unavoidable fixed cost (30,000-20,000)

$220,000 = External price + $10,000

So,

External price = 210,000

Hence, the same is to be considered

Therefore the external price is $210,000

c. What is the optimal number of orders per year?
d. What is the optimal number of days in between any two orders?
e. What is the annual cost of ordering and holding inventory?
f. What is the total annual inventory cost, including cost of the 6,000 units?

Answers

Answer: Please find answers below

Explanation:

(a) Economic order quantity EOQ = [tex]\sqrt{2 X Annual Demand X Ordering Cost) / Carrying Cost)}[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{2 X 5,900 X 29 / 9 }[/tex]     = [tex]\sqrt{38,022.222}[/tex]

= 194.99 units  

(b) Average number of units = Economic order quantity / 2

= 194.99 / 2  

= 97.496 units    

(c) Optimal number of orders = Annual Demand / Economic order quantity

= 5,900units / 194.99 units  =30.26  

(d) Optimal number of days between two orders = Number of working days / Optimal number of orders

= 250 days / 30.26  

= 8.26  

Total ordering cost = Cost per order X Number of orders

= $29 X 30.26  

= $ 877.54

Total holding cost = Average inventory X carrying cost per unit

= 194.99 /2  X $9  

= $877.455

(e) Annual cost of ordering and holding inventorY =Total ordering cost + Total carrying cost

= $ 877.54  + $877.455

= $ 1,754.995  ≈ $1,755  

 

 

(f) Total annual inventory cost =Total ordering cost +Total holding cost + Actual cost of 5900 units at $102 per unit    

= $ 877.54  + $877.455  + (5,900 x 102) = $1754.995 +601,800= $603,554.995≈$603,555

Total annual inventory cost =Total ordering cost +Total holding cost + Actual cost of 6000 units at $102 per unit    

= $ 877.54  + $877.455  + (6000 x 102) = $1754.995 +612,000= $613,754.995≈$613,755

C. debit Cash for $10, 000 and credit Gain on Sale of Equipment for $10, 000

D. debit Accumulated Depreciation - Equipment for $66, 000 and credit Equipment for $66, 000

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

To calculate the gain or loss on disposal of the equipment, we first need to determine the book value of the equipment on the date of sale.

Net Book Value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

Net Book value = 72000 - 66000   = $6000

The gain/(loss) on disposal = Sales Proceeds - Net Book value

The gain/(loss) on disposal = 10000 - 6000 = $4000 Gain

The entry to record this transaction will be,

Cash                                                              $10000 Dr

Accumulated depreciation - Equipment     $66000 Dr

The Operating Leverage is calculated by;

Operating leverage = Contribution margin / Operating income

Contribution Margin

= Sales - Variable Costs

= 385,187 - 200,887

a. 0.37
b. 0.44
c. 0.42
d. 0.56
e. 0.34

Answers

Answer:

e. 0.34

Explanation:

Let debt be $D

Equity be $E

Total=(D+E)

WACC = Respective cost * Respective weight

12.7 = {(D*4.8)/(D+E)} + {(15.4*E)/(D+E)}

12.7*(D+E)=4.8D+15.4E

12.7D+12.7E=4.8D+15.4E

D=(15.4-12.7)E /(12.7-4.8)

D = 2.7E / 7.9

D = 0.0341772

D = 0.34 E

Hence, debt-equity ratio=debt/equity

Size of FirmsBook-to-Market Values which is Value RiskExcess Return on the Market which is Market Risk

It doesn't include Liquidity risk and Momentum risk factors.

Hence none of the option is correct so we will choose "None of the answers".

What is the expected yield on the market portfolio at a time when Treasury bills are yielding 6%, and a stock with a beta of 1.5 is expected to yield 18%

Answers

Answer:

8%

Explanation:

According to CAPM :

expected stock yield =risk free rate + (beta x market yield)

6% + 1.5 x market yield = 18%

18% - 6% = 1.5market yield

solving for market yield gives

market yield = 8%

To determine cash payments for operating expenses for the statement of cash flows using the direct method, a decrease in accrued expenses is added to operating expenses other than depreciation.

a. True
b. False

Answers

True

Explanation:

To determine cash payments under direct method the decrease in accrued expenses is added to the operating expenses payable . Accrued expense mean expenses incurred but not yet paid. A decrease in accrued expenses would suggest that accrued expenses have been paid therefore there has been an outflow of cash which will be added to cash paid for operating expenses.

A company makes cat food. Management is considering whether the hard cardboard box for packing a case of canned cat food should be made internally or purchased from another company. The costs of producing the cardboard boxes include:_________.
Variable cost per box $0.39
Total fixed costs of the factory $59,030 per year
Total boxes needed annually 21,962
Quote from the supplier, per box $0.22
How much will the company save (or lose) IN TOTAL if they accept the supplier's quote? If they lose money, put a negative sign in front of your answer. If they save money, just put in the number without any sign in front of it.

Answers

Answer:

Total relevant cost of     21,962 * $0.39   = $8,565.18

making internally

Less: Total relevant        21,962 * 0.22     = $4,831.64

cost of purchasing

Savings in cost                                            $3,733.54

Conclusion: Manufacturing the hard cardboard box internally will save cost of $3,733.54 as compared to cost of purchasing the same quantity of box needed from supplier.

Note: Fixed costs is not relevant cost as it is unavoidable.

A project has an initial cost of $60,000, expected net cash inflows of $14,000 per year for 7 years, and a cost of capital of 13%. What is the project's discounted payback period

Answers

Answer:

Discounted payback period = 6.68 years

Explanation:

Year Cash inflow$   Discounted cash     Cumulative discounted

                                          inflow$                      cash inflow$

1          14,000                    12,389                            12,389

2         14,000                    10,964                             23,353

3         14,000                     9,703                              33,056  

4         14,000                     8,586                              41,643    

5         14,000                     7,599                              49,241    

6         14,000                      6,724                             55,966    

7         14,000                      5,951                              61,917

Discounted cash inflow is calculated by discounting cash inflow at 13%. For example, discounted cash-flow in year 1 = 14,000 / (1+13%)^1 = 12,389.

Similarly, discounted cash-flow in year 2 = 14,000 / (1+13%)^2 = 10,964. And so on.

Cumulative cash-flows are sum of all cashflows till that year. For example, year 2 cumulative cashflow = 12,389 + 10,964 = 23,353.

Similarly, year 3 cumulative cash-flow = 23,353 + 9,703 = 33,056.

This cumulative cash-flow crosses 60,000 in year 7, so discounted payback period = 6 + (60,000-55,966) / 5,951

Discounted payback period = 6.68 years

A company purchased 400 units at $75 per unit. The company sold 385 units. what is the cost of goods sold and ending inventory

Answers

Answer:

Cost of goods sold $28,875

Ending inventory $1,125

Explanation:

Calculation for cost of goods sold and ending inventory

Cost of goods sold is calculated using this formula

Cost of goods sold=Sales units *Purchased per units

Let plug in the formula

Cost of goods sold=385 units *$75 per unit

Cost of goods sold=$28,875

Calculation for the ending inventory using this formula

Ending inventory=(Purchased units * purchased per unit) -Cost of goods sold

Let plug in the formula

Ending inventory=(400 units× 75 per unit) -$28,875

Ending inventory=$30,000-$28,875

Ending inventory=$1,125

Therefore the Cost of goods sold will be $28,875 while the Ending inventory will be $1,125

Interest accrued = $3,850.

12.The competitive strategy of a firm pursuing a "think global, act local" approach to strategy-making A. entails little or no strategy coordination across countries. B. usually involves cross-subsidizing the prices in those markets where there are significant country-to-country differences in the product attributes that customers are most interested in. C. involves selling a mostly standardized product worldwide, but varying a company's use of distribution channels and marketing approaches to accommodate local market conditions. D. is essentially the same in all country markets where it competes but it may nonetheless give local managers room to make minor variations where necessary to better satisfy local buyers and to better match local market conditions. E. involves having strongly differentiated product versionsfor different countries and selling them under distinctly different brand names (one for each country or group of neighboring countries) so that there will be no doubt in customers' minds that the product is more local than global.

Answers

Answer:

D. is essentially the same in all country markets where it competes but it may nonetheless give local managers room to make minor variations where necessary to better satisfy local buyers and to better match local market conditions.
