Bryce Co. sales are $801,000, variable costs are $465,100, and operating income is $287,000. What is the contribution margin ratio

Answers

Answer:

Contribution margin ratio= 0.42

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Bryce Co. sales are $801,000

Variable costs are $465,100

Operating income is $287,000.

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

contribution margin ratio= (sales - variable cost) / sales

contribution margin ratio= (801,000 - 465,100) / 801,000

contribution margin ratio= 0.42

"A customer has an existing margin account that shows the following: Long Market Value: $50,000 Debit Balance: $30,000 The market value declines to $30,000, the customer is sent a maintenance call, which the customer wishes to meet by depositing fully paid stock. The amount of stock that must be deposited is:"

Answers

Answer:

The amount of stock that must be deposited is $10,000.

Explanation:

Generally, the minimum margin is 25% of the Debit Balance. This implies that the account of the customer will receive a maintenance call for 25% of $30,000 which is $7,500 as a cash deposit.

Note that a maintenance call refers to a call to request a customer to provide additional funds when the market value of securities in his margin account has fallen below an established minimum.

However, the customer can decide to deposit other fully paid stock to meet the maintenance call of $7,500 instead of depositing cash. The minimum market value of securities needed in the account can be calculated by dividing the Debit balance by 75%, i.e.

Minimum market value of securities needed = $30,000 / 75% = $40,000

Since there is a $30,000 worth of securities already in the account, the customer will have to deposit additional $10,000 worth of securities, i.e.:

The amount of stock that must be deposited = Minimum market value of securities needed - Debit balance = $40,000 - $30,000 = $10,000

Therefore, the amount of stock that must be deposited is $10,000.

The Peabody Company has 7 year MACRS property with an original cost basis of $1,700,000. Calculate the ending book value at Year 4.

Answers

Answer: $531,080

Explanation

The Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) is a depreciation schedule for assets and can be based on various year denominations. This one is of a 7 year type and the rates are specified below;

The ending book value at the end of year 4 would be;

= Original Cost - Accumulated Depreciation

= 1,700,000 - (1,700,000 * ( 14.29% + 24.49% + 17.49% + 12.49%))

= 1,700,000 - (1,700,000 * 68.76%)

= 1,700,000 - 1,168,920‬

= $531,080

Purple Panda Products Inc. is considering a project that will require $650,000 in assets. The project will be financed with 100% equity. The company faces a tax rate of 30%. Assuming that the project generates an expected EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) of $170,000, then Purple Panda’s anticipated ROE (return on equity) for the project will be:

a. 14.65%
b. 18.31%
c. 11.90%
d. 10.99%

Answers

Answer:

18.31%

Explanation:

Purple panda products incorporation has a shareholder's equity of $650,000

The tax rate is 30%

=30/100

= 0.3

The EBIT is $170,000

The first step is to calculate the net income

Net income= EBIT - tax

= $170,000-(0.3×170,000)

= $170,000-51,000

= 119,000

Therefore, the ROE can be calculated as follows

ROE= Net income/shareholder's equity

= 119,000/650,000

= 0.1831×100

= 18.31%

Hence the ROE is 18.31%

Find the operating cash flow for the year for Harper​ Brothers, Inc. if it had sales revenue of ​, cost of goods sold of ​, sales and administrative costs of ​, depreciation expense of ​, and a tax rate of .

Answers

Answer:

$101,960,000

Explanation:

For the computation of operating cash flow first we need to follow some steps which are shown below:-

Step 1

EBIT = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Sales and administrative costs - Depreciation

= $302,100,000 - $135,900,000 - $39,600,000 - $65,000,000

= $61,600,000

Step 2

Net income = EBIT - Tax

= $61,600,000 - ($61,600,000 × 40%)

= $61,600,000 - $24,640,000

= $36,960,000

and finally

Operating cash flow = EBIT - Taxes + Depreciation

= $61,600,000 - $24,640,000 + $65,000,000

= $101,960,000

Suppose an industry earns a rate of return of 10%, which is twice as high as that of competitive industries, 5%. How much is the price overcharge of that industry, if its capital is valued at half its annual revenue

Answers

Answer:

Let us assume that both the industries are having an investment of $100,000

The profit of the given industry which is having 10% rate of return will be $100,000 * 10% = $10,000

The other industry which is having the Rate of return of 5% will earn a profit of $100,000 * 5% = $5000.

As the capital is just half of the revenue, it signifies that the total revenue will be $200,000 . So the same value of $10,000 will be 5% of the total revenue.  On the other hand, $5,000 would be 2.5% of total revenue.

Thus, the first stated industry will charge 2.5% more than the other industry.

Answers

Complete Question:

When auto manufacturer BMW purchased the Rolls-Royce brand name, BMW had to hire and train a new staff of assembly workers. The new workers were paid $25 per hour, worked a total of 7,500 hours, and produced 2,000 cars. BMW budgeted for a standard labor rate of $27 per hour and 1.25 direct labor hours per car.

What is the direct labor rate variance for the Rolls-Royce division?

Answer:

$15,000 Favorable Variance

Explanation:

As we know that:

Labor Rate Variance = (Actual Rate per Hour − Standard Rate per Hour) * Actual Hours Worked

If we consider the parenthesis elements in the formula, we can decide whether the variance is favorable or adverse. If the actual cost is higher than the budget (standard) then the variance (difference) is adverse and vice versa.

Here

Actual rate per hour is $25 per Hour

Standard rate per hour is $27 per Hour

Actual Hours Worked are 7,500 Hour

By putting values, we have:

Labor Rate Variance = ($25 − $27) * 7,500 Hrs

Labor Rate Variance = ($2 per share) * 7,500 Hrs

Labor Rate Variance = $15,000 Favorable

As the actual labor rate is lower than the standard rate hence the variance is favorable.

Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence. Fixed costs equal $25,000; variable cost per unit is $2.50 and units produced are 10,000. The total budgeted costs is

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $50,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs equal $25,000

Variable cost per unit is $2.50

Units produced=10,000

To calculate the total costs, we need to use the following formula:

Total cost= fixed costs + total variable cost

Total cost= 25,000 + 2.5*10,000

Total cost= $50,000

The Total budgeted cost when the fixed cost, variable cost per unit is given should be $50,000.

Calculation of the total budgeted cost:

Since

Fixed costs equal $25,000

The variable cost per unit is $2.50

Units produced=10,000

Now the following formula is used

Total cost= fixed costs + total variable cost

Total cost= 25,000 + 2.5*10,000

Total cost= $50,000

Basically we added the fixed cost and the total variable cost so that the total cost could come.

hence, The Total budgeted cost is $50,000.

Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annual coupon payments. Suppose a German company issues a bond with a par value of ? 1000, 25 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 6.4 percent paid annually. If the yield to maturity is 7.5 percent, what is the current price of the bond?

Answers

Answer:

Bond Price = $877.3835955 rounded off to $877.380

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and r or YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 0.064 * 1000 = $64

Total periods (n)= 25

r or YTM = 7.5% or 0.075

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 64 * [( 1 - (1+0.075)^-25) / 0.075]  +  1000 / (1+0.075)^25

Bond Price = $877.3835955 rounded off to $877.380

The current price of the bond is $877.38.

Given that,

The par value of $1,000.The NPER is 25 years.The coupon rate is 6.4%, PMT = 6.4% of $1,000 = $64.The RATE is 7.5%.

Based on the above information, the calculation is to be shown in the attachment.

Therefore we can conclude that The current price of the bond is $877.38.

Answers

Answer:

Portfolio return = 0.127744 or 12.7744% rounded off to 12.77%

Explanation:

The portfolio return is a function of the weighted average of the individual stocks returns' that form up the portfolio. The formula for portfolio return is,

Portfolio return = wA * rA  +  wB * rB  +  ...  +  wN * rN

Where,

w represents the weight of each stockr represents the return of each stock

To calculate the expected return of portfolio, we first need to calculate the individual stock returns.

The expected rate of return of individual stocks can be calculated as follows,

r = pA * rA  +  pB * rB + ... + pN * rN

Where,

pA, pB and so on represents the probability of an event or return to occur rA, rB and so on are the return in different events

For Stock A

rA = 0.17 * -0.188  +  0.45 * 0.102  +  0.38 * 0.286

rA  = 0.12262 or 12.262%

For Stock B

rB = 0.17 * -0.039  +  0.45 * 0.085  +  0.38 * 0.158

rB  = 0.09166 or 9.166%

For Stock C

rC = 0.17 * -0.228  +  0.45 * 0.171  +  0.38 * 0.317

rC  = 0.15865 or 15.865%

Portfolio return = 0.3 * 0.12262  +  0.3 * 0.09166  +  0.4 * 0.15865

Portfolio return = 0.127744 or 12.7744% rounded off to 12.77%

Steelcase Inc. (SCS) is one of the largest manufacturers of office furniture in the United States. In Grand Rapids, Michigan, it assembles filing cabinets in an Assembly Department. Assume the following information for the Assembly Department: Direct labor per filing cabinet 18 minutes Supervisor salaries $250,000 per month Depreciation $18,500 per month Direct labor rate $28 per hourRequired:Prepare a flexible budget for 70,000, 80,000, and 90,000 filing cabinets for the month ending February 28 in the Assembly Department.

Answers

Answer:

Total department cost of 70,000 units = $856,500

Total department cost of 80,000 units = $940,000

Total department cost of 90,000 units = $1,024,500

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the flexible budget.

A flexible budget is a budget that changes, flexes or adjusts as the volume, activity or unit of production changes.

For this question, the direct labor cost for each unit can be calculated as follows:

Direct labor time per filing cabinet in minutes = 18

Number of minutes in one hour = 60

Direct labor rate per minute = Direct labor rate per hour / Number minutes in one hour = $28 / 60 = $0.466666666666667

Direct labor cost per filing cabinet = Direct labor time per filing cabinet in minutes * Direct labor rate per minute = 18 * $0.466666666666667 = $8.40

Direct labor cost of a particular units of production = Direct labor cost per filing cabinet * Number of units of production ................... (1)

Using equation (1), the Direct labor cost of different units of production used in the attached excel file is calculated as follows:

Direct labor cost of 70,000 units = $8.40 * 70,000 = $588,000

Direct labor cost of 80,000 units = $8.40 * 80,000 = $672,000

Direct labor cost of 90,000 units = $8.40 * 90,000 = $756,000

Georgia is the primary shareholder in Acme, Inc., a small corporation. After its corporate certificate was issued by the state, there were no other formalities or documentation.

As the workforce becomes more diverse, why does performance appraisal become a more difficult process?

Answers

Answer:

Performance appraisal in a company with diverse workforce becomes difficult because of some cultural biases that may exist between the manager, who is doing the appraisal, and the diverse workforce.  This problem becomes more acute if the manager is culturally biased and discriminatory by practise.

Explanation:

Company A can have a diverse workforce if it is made up of employees from culturally different places working together in the same workplace.  Bias often arises due to human cultural nuisances.  This becomes more obvious where managers are from some particular cultures while the employees are from mixed cultures.  In such situations, the managers need to be retrained to enable them embrace cultural diversity in the workplace and in performance evaluation.

The key cause due to which the performance appraisal becomes problematic due to diversity in the workforce would be:

- Cultural bias

What is performance appraisal?

Performance appraisal is described as the process of reviewing the performances done by the employees in a particular organization to attain its goals and reward them accordingly.

When the workforce of a particular company or organization becomes exceedingly diverse, it becomes problematic to do performance appraisals.

The reason behind this is that this diversity gives rise to cultural biases and may result in discrimination.

based on the characteristics of constructive conflicts, which of the following would help a manager create constructive conflicts during a debate?
1. Support the weaker members during a debate
2. Explain conflict in terms of interpersonal incompatabilities
3. Support the stronger memebrs during the debate
4. Keep the debate focused on the issue
5. Maintain competitive oreientation on the debate

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: 4. Keep the debate focused on the issue

Explanation:

A constructive conflict can be understood as different points of view that arise in an organization on the same issue.

Therefore, it can be a great way for the organization to enrich itself with new ideas, thoughts and different ways of carrying out actions that will help the organization to achieve its objectives and goals.

Therefore, the most suitable alternative for building a constructive conflict during a debate is for the manager to always focus on the issue discussed, and not for the debate to turn to support due to interpersonal relationships.

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Company estimates total manufacturing overhead costs of $882,000 and, direct labor costs of $735,000

To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 882,000/735,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar
