Determination of annual revenue:
a) The information needed to determine which company has higher annual revenue include:
i) The annual quantities of packs of paper coffee cups sold to the Caribou Coffee locations in the US for a number of years.
ii) The annual quantities of dinner plates sold to Applebee's for the same years as above.
b) The annual revenues can be calculated by multiplying the price for a pack of 100 cups by the annual quantity sold.
Explanation:
Revenue is a function of price and quantity sold. The price is unit selling price and the quantity depends on the period for which revenue is being computed.
Revenue is the earnings from the sale of goods and services. The excess of revenue over cost of sales gives the gross profit, from which expenses would be deducted to arrive at net income after adding other incomes from non-operational activities.
The selling price of imported olive oil is $20 per case. Your cost is 15 Euros per case, and the exchange rate is currently 1.25, so it takes 1.25 Euros to buy $1. Your largest customer has ordered 15,000 cases of olive oil. How much is the pretax profit for this transaction?
Answer:
$120,000
Explanation:
According to the question, the selling price (S.P) i.e. amount to be sold, of one imported olive oil case is $20 while the cost price (C.P) i.e. amount it was purchased, is €15
Looking at the currencies of both prices, they are different. To make the currencies the same, we need to convert euros (€) to dollars ($).
Based on the exchange rate of €1.25 to $1 given in the question;
€15 will be 15/1.25 = $12.
Therefore, the C.P is $12 and the S.P is $20
A customer ordered 15,000 cases of olive oil. This means that the;
1) The cost price (C.P) will be $12 × 15,000 = $180,000
2) The selling price will be $20 × 15,000 = $300,000
In order to obtain the pretax profit, we subtract the cost price (C.P) from the selling price (S.P). That is, $300,000 - $180,000 = $120,000

Answer:
The Correct Option of the given scenario is "C - Publicize the options you rejected with your reasons".
Explanation:
While creating business selection it is ought to seek for the philosophies and integrities. However, don't create it public the explanations of captivating some choices as they are having dissimilarities in philosophies which might drawback your businesses.
Answer: c. publicize the options you rejected with your reasons.
Explanation:
Under the Profit Maximisation theory where ethical behaviour does not necessarily benefit the company and the corporate citizenship theory that describes just how a company contributes to society, all the above are methods applied execpt the publication of the options rejected with reasons.
This is because certain things need to remain confidential for the protection of individuals and reputations as well as to avoid scrutiny because a Company's methodology might not be the methodology that a number of people would subscribe to.
Huron Company produces a commercial cleaning compound known as Zoom. The direct materials and direct labor standards for one unit of Zoom are given below: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Direct materials 6.90 pounds $ 2.60 per pound $ 17.94 Direct labor 0.30 hours $ 7.00 per hour $ 2.10 During the most recent month, the following activity was recorded: 19,250.00 pounds of material were purchased at a cost of $2.40 per pound. All of the material purchased was used to produce 2,500 units of Zoom. 450 hours of direct labor time were recorded at a total labor cost of $4,500. Required: 1. Compute the materials price and quantity variances for the month. 2. Compute the labor rate and efficiency variances for the month.
Answer:
1. Material Variances
Material Price Variance = $3,850 F
Material Quantity Variance = $5,200 U
2. Labor Variances
Labor Rate Variance = $1,350 U
Labor Efficiency Variance = $2,100 F
Explanation:
Calculation is as follows:
1. Material Variances
Material Price Variance = (Standard Price - Actual Price) x Actual units
Material Price Variance = ($2.60 - $2.4) x 19,250 pounds
Material Price Variance = $3,850 (favorable)
As the actual rate is less than standard rate the variance is favorable.
Standard Quantity = 2,500 x 6.9 = 17,250 pounds
Material Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) x Standard Rate
Material Quantity Variance = (17,250 - 19,250) x $2.60
Material Quantity Variance = $5,200 (Unfavorable)
As the actual raw material quantity used is higher than standard raw material quantity the variance is unfavorable.
2. Labor Variances
Actual Labor Rate = 4,500/450 = $10/hour
Labor Rate Variance = (Standard Rate - Actual Rate) x Actual Hours
Labor Rate Variance = ($7 - $10) x 450
Labor Rate Variance = $1,350 (Unfavorable)
As actual rate is higher than standard rate thus the variance is unfavorable.
Standard Hours = 2,500 x 0.3 = 750
Labor Efficiency Variance = (Standard Hours - Actual Hours) x Standard Rate
Labor Efficiency Variance = (750 - 450) x $7
Labor Efficiency Variance = $2,100 (Favorable)
As the Standard Hours is more than Actual Hours the variance is favorable.

Market researchers have determined nine categories of lifestyles for computer users. One of the categories is described as "Mouse Potatoes," who like the Internet for entertainment and can't wait to buy the latest in "techno-entertainment." In terms of the diffusion process, how would "Mouse Potatoes" be classified?
Answer: Innovators.
Explanation:
The Diffusion Process defines how new products are able to spread across a market.
It does this by using the Adoption Process to determine the various groups in the market and how fast the product gets to those groups. There are 5 groups in total.
- Innovators
- Early Adopters
- Early Majority
- Late Majority
- Laggards.
In the above scenario, the Mouse Potatoes would be the Innovators. These are the first buyers of a product and as such their opinions are very important as they then tell others how useful the product is. Mouse Potatoes regularly browse the net looking for the latest in "techno-entertainment", so they can buy or use it first thus making them Innovators.
Assume that Parker Company will receive SF200,000 in 360 days. Assume the following interest rates: the 360-day borrowing rate in U.S. is 7% while the 360-day borrowing rate in Switzerland is 5%. The 360-day deposit rate in U.S. is 5% while the 360-day deposit rate in Switzerland is 4%. Assume the forward rate of the Swiss franc is $0.50 and the spot rate of the Swiss franc is $0.48. If Parker Company uses a money market hedge, it will receive ____ in 360 days.
Answer:
Company will receive = $96,000
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
Corresponding SF liability equals to pay SF200,000 including interest
= 200,000÷1.05 = SF190476.19
Now Convert the SF into $US at the current spot rate = $0.48×190476.19
= $91428.57
Now deposit the $ US at 5% and withdraw after 360 days =
= $91428.57 + $91428.57×5%
= $95999.99
This way the liability of SF 190476.19 + 190476.19×5% interest will be paid off when Parker company receives $200,000, Parker company will receive = $96,000 in 360 days.
Crowl Corporation is investigating automating a process by purchasing a machine for $793,800 that would have a 9-year useful life and no salvage value. By automating the process, the company would save $133,000 per year in cash operating costs. The new machine would replace some old equipment that would be sold for scrap now, yielding $21,200. The annual depreciation on the new machine would be $88,200. The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to
a. 5.80%
b. 11.12%
c. 16.72%
d. 5.12%
Answer:
Simple rate of return is 5.8%
Therefore option (a) is correct option.
Explanation:
It is given that purchase cost = $793800
Company saving per year = $133000
Yielding = $21200
Annual depreciation = $88200
Annual profit = $133000 - $88200 = $44800
Net investment is equal to = $793800 - $21200 = $772600
Simple rate of return [tex]=\frac{44800}{772600}=0.0579[/tex]
= 5.8%
Therefore simple rate of return is 5.8 %
So option (a) is correct.

Explanation:
Wicker Rockers, Inc. is planning to offer a defined contribution plan for its employees. The company would like to incorporate a "cliff" vesting schedule for the employer contributions into the plan. What is the minimum vesting period the company can choose for a "cliff" vesting schedule
Answer:3 years
Explanation:
Cliff vesting is when an employee of a company becomes fully vested on a specified date rather than the employee becoming partially vested in increasing amounts over extended period. Cliff Vesting is a process whereby the employees are entitled to full benefits from their firm’s pension policies and qualified retirement plans on a given date.
Upon the completion of the cliff period, employees receive full benefits. The Pension Protection Act of 2006 deduced a three-year cliff vesting schedule for the designated defined-contribution plans which includes 401Ks.
Which of the following is true of a stock dividend? Multiple Choice It is a liability on the balance sheet. The decision to declare a stock dividend resides with the shareholders. Transfers a portion of equity from retained earnings to a cash reserve account. Does not affect total equity, but transfer amounts between the components of equity. Reduces a corporation's assets and stockholders' equity.
Answer:
Yes it is true that a stock dividend does not affect total equity.
Explanation:
A stock dividend is a non cash payment given to shareholders. Instead of cash, additional shares that is equivalent to the earnings that accrue is given to shareholders.
While this may increase the number of shares held, it does not affect total equity.
One of the benefits of stock dividends tax exemption and retained equity which translates to additional investment.
However, the additional; shares created could dilute the share prices.
Suppose the economy is in long-run equilibrium. In a short span of time, there is a sharp rise in the stock market, an increase in government purchases, an increase in the money supply and a decline in the value of the dollar. In the short run a. the price level and real GDP will both rise. b. the price level and real GDP will both fall. c. neither the price leave nor real GDP will change. d. All of the above are possible.
Answer:
All of the above are possible.
Explanation:
Discussions here center on equilibrium of an economy in a long run, and here after the government activities, their is a decline in dollar value; therefore in the short run, the price level and real GDP will both rise in as much as the price level and real GDP will also both fall. It is also gathered that neither the price leave nor real GDP will change.
The transition from the short run to the long run may be done by considering some short run equilibrium that is also a long run equilibrium as to supply and demand, then comparing that state against a new short run and long run equilibrium state from a change that disturbs equilibrium, say in the sales tax rate, tracing out the short run adjustment first, then the long run adjustment.
January 1, 2021, Woody Forrest Corporation granted executive stock options to purchase 41,000 of its common shares at $9 each. The market price of common stock was $24 per share on December 31, 2021, and averaged $12 per share during the year then ended. There was no change in the 164,000 shares of outstanding common stock during the year. Net income for the year was $39,000. The number of shares to be used in computing diluted earnings per share for the quarter is:
Answer:
174,250 shares
Explanation:
The computation of the number of shares to be used in computing diluted earnings per share is shown below:
Proceeds from exercise of options (a) $369,000 (41,000 shares × $9)
Used to repurchased for common stock (b) 30,750 shares (41,000 shares × $9 ÷ $12)
Number of shares for exercised (c) 41,000 shares
Less: repurchased shares (d) -30,750 shares
Diluted common shares {e = c - d} 10,250 shares
Add: Common shares (f) 164,000 shares
Total number of shares for diluted earning per share 174,250 shares
We ignored the market price of common stock as it is not relevant.
Dinklage Corp. has 9 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $69, and the book value per share is $8. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $70 million, a coupon rate of 6 percent, and sells for 94 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $55 million, a coupon rate of 5 percent, and sells for 106 percent of par. The first issue matures in 24 years, the second in 9 years.Suppose the most recent dividend was $4.25 and the dividend growth rate is 4.4 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 25 percent. What is the company’s WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
10.83%
Explanation:
The simplest way to determine the if we use the Gordon growth model for determining the company's stock price:
stock price = [dividend x (1 + growth rate)] / (WACC - growth rate)
dividend = $4.25g = 4.4%stock price = $69WACC - g = [dividend x (1 + g] / price
WACC = {[dividend x (1 + g] / price} + g
WACC = {[$4.25 x (1 + 4.4%] / $69} + 4.4% = 0.1083 or 10.83%
The common stock of Leaning Tower of Pita Inc., a restaurant chain, will generate payoffs to investors next year, which depend on the state of the economy, as follows: Dividend Stock Price Boom $ 10 $ 200 Normal economy 6 90 Recession 0 0 The company goes out of business if a recession hits. Assume for simplicity that the three possible states of the economy are equally likely. The stock is selling today for $80.
a. Calculate the rate of return to Leaning Tower of Pita shareholders for each economic state. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Rate of return Boom Normal economy Recession a-2.
b. Calculate the expected rate of return and standard deviation of return to Leaning Tower of Pita shareholders. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Expected return Standard deviation
Answer:
a) Boom = 162.50%
Normal =20.00%
Recession = - 100.00%
b) Expected return = 27.50%
Standard deviation = 107.30%
Explanation:
a) To find the rate of return for each economy state, let's use:
Rate of return = (Dividend +Stock price next year-stock price today)/stock price today
i) For Boom:
[tex] \frac{10 + 200 - 80}{80} = 1.625 [/tex] = 162.50%
ii) Normal:
[tex]\frac{6 + 90- 80}{80} = 0.2 [/tex] = 20.00%
iii) Recession :
[tex]\frac{0 + 0 - 80}{80} = - 1 [/tex] = -100%
b) To calculate the expected rate of return, let's use:
Expected return = Sum of expected return in different scenario / number of economy states
[tex] = \frac{162.5 + 20 - 100}{3} = 27.50[/tex]
Standard deviation:
To find the standard deviation, let's use:
Standard deviation = √[(sum of square of expected return in each scenario -average return)/n]
[tex] = \sqrt{\frac{(162.50-27.50)^2+(20-27.50)^2+(-100-27.50)^2}{3}} [/tex]
[tex] = \sqrt{\frac{(135)^2 + (-7.50)^2 + (-127.50)^2}{3}} [/tex]
[tex] = \sqrt{\frac{18225+56.25+16256.25}{3} [/tex]
= 107.30%
Standard deviation = 107.30%
A company can sell all the units it can produce of either Product A or Product B but not both. Product A has a unit contribution margin of $16 and takes two machine hours to make and Product B has a unit contribution margin of $30 and takes three machine hours to make. If there are 5,000 machine hours available to manufacture a product, income will be:
a. $10,000 more if Product A is made.
b. $10,000 less if Product B is made.
c. $10,000 less if Product A is made.
d. the same if either product is made.
Answer:
Product B has a net income of $10,000 superior to Product A.
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Product A:
Unitary contribution margin= $16
Machine-hours required= 2
Product B:
Unitary contribution margin= $30
Machine-hours required= 3
First, we will calculate the total income of both products.
Product A= 16*(5,000/2)= $40,000
Product B= 30*(5,000/3)= $50,000
Product B has a net income of $10,000 superior to Product A.
CSUSM is a zero growth company. It currently has zero debt and its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $85,000. CSUSM 's current cost of equity is 11%, and its tax rate is 21%. The firm has 15,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Assume that CSUSM is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure with 39% debt and 61% equity. This results in a weighted average cost of capital equal to 8.7% and a new value of operations of $576,345. Assume CSUSM raises $165,000 in new debt and purchases T-bills to hold until it makes the stock repurchase. What is the stock price per share immediately after issuing the debt but prior to the repurchase?
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
Calculation of CSUSM 's New value of Operation :
For the purpose of Calculation of New Value of Operation we need to first calculate new WACC
Given :
Debt value ( Wd) = 30% or 0.30
Equity Value ( We)= 70% or 0.70
Cost of Debt ( Kd) =8%
New cost of equity (Ke) =12%
WACC =Kd(1-T) * Wd + Ke* We
WACC =[8%(1-0.40) * 0.30] + [12% * 0.70]
= [4.80% * 0.30 ] + [8.4 %]
= 1.44% + 8.4%
= 9.84 %
Given EBIT = $ 80,000
Tax rate = 40%
Currently the company has no growth. Therefore growth rate is 0 %
Value of New Operation =FCF / WACC
=EBIT (1-T) / WACC
=$80,000 (1-0.40)/ 9.84%
= $ 487,804.88
Marle Construction enters into a contract with a customer to build a warehouse for $950,000 on March 30, 2018 with a performance bonus of $50,000 if the building is completed by July 31, 2018. The bonus is reduced by $10,000 each week that completion is delayed. Marle commonly includes these completion bonuses in its contracts and, based on prior experience, estimates the following completion outcomes: Completed by Probability July 31, 2018 65% August 7, 2018 5% August 14, 2018 5% August 21, 2018 The transaction price for this transaction, based on the expected value approach, is:_______.
a. $950,000
b. $995,000
c. $685,000
d. $652,500
Answer:
b. $995,000
Explanation:
The computation of the transaction price based on the expected value approach is shown below:
The formula is
= (Building cost of warehouse + bonus) × probability percentage
Date Calculation Amount
July 31, 2018 ($950,000+$50,000) × 0.65 $650,000
August 7, 2018 ($950,000+$40,000) × 0.25 $247,500
August 14, 2018 ($950,000+$30,000) × 0.05 $49,000
August 21, 2018 ($950,000+$20,000) × 0.05 $48,500
Total $995,000
Since the bonus is reduced $10,000 each week so $10,000 is deducted for every delayed week
The CFO’s objective is to make certain that the capital consumed in farming is renewed and that the farm remains efficient, utilizing the best technology and equipment appropriate for its competitive situation. How would you expect the CFO to calculate depreciation expense?

You can repair your furnace for $500 and it will last 5 more years, but your heating bills will cost you about $1500 per year. Alternatively, a new furnace can be installed for $3000 that will reduce your annual heating bill to $1200. Suppose you sell the house in 5 years and receive an additional $1000 in the sales price of your home (salvage value) because of having a fairly new furnace. Should you replace it? Use a 5-year analysis period and a MARR of 5%
Answer:
By present value old furnace should not be replaced, since the new furnace costs more.
Explanation:
Solution
For the old furnace
Present value = - 500 - 1500 = (1 +i)^n-1/i (1+i)n
= - 500-1500 * 1.05^⁵/0.05 * 1.05^⁵
= -$6994.215
Now,
For the new furnace
The present value = - 3000 - 1200 * 1.05^⁵ - 1/0.05 * 1.05^⁵ + 1000/ (1.05)⁵
= -$7411.845
Therefore, As the new furnace costs more by present value old furnace should not be replaced

g On July 1, 2019, Sheffield Corp. issued 9% bonds in the face amount of $12400000, which mature on July 1, 2025. The bonds were issued for $11859948 to yield 10%, resulting in a bond discount of $540052. Sheffield uses the effective-interest method of amortizing bond discount. Interest is payable annually on June 30. At June 30, 2021, Sheffield's unamortized bond discount should be
Answer:
$393,063
Explanation:
The bond is issued on discount when the issuance price is less than the face value of the bond. The discount is expensed over the bond period until maturity. It is added to the interest expense value to expense it.
Unamortized Discount is the discount balance which has not been expensed or discount balance for outstanding period of the bond to maturity.
Discount Balance = $540,052

You are given the following information about 2 accounts: Account 1 Time Account Value before transactions Deposit Withdrawal 0 100 0.25 110 X 0.75 120 3X 1 82 Account 2 Time Account Value before transactions Deposit Withdrawal 0 100 0.5 120 2X 1 140 You are also told that the dollar weighted return over the year on account 1 is i. If the time weighted return over the year on account 2 is also i, what are X and i
Answer:
Check the explanation
Explanation:
For account 1:
Dollar weighted investment = 100 for entire year + X for three fourth of the year - 3X for one fourth of the year = 100 + 3X/4 - 3X/4 = 100
Dollar return = Closing balance - opening balance - (Total deposit - total withdrawal) = 82 - 100 - (X - 3X) = 2X - 18
Hence, dollar weighted return = i = Dollar return / Dollar weighted investment = (2X - 18) / 100
Or, 100i = 2X - 18 Or, 50i = X - 9
For account 2:
Time weighted return: It has two components:
100 growing to 120 in 0.5 year
Immediately after deposit of 2X, the capital becomes 120 + 2X that grows to become 140 in the next 0.5 year
Hence time weighted return = 1 + i = 120 / 100 x 140 / (120 + 2X) = 168 / (120 + 2X) = 84 / (60 + X)
From the first equation, i = (X - 9) / 50
Hence, from second equation, 1 + i = 1 + (X - 9) / 50 = (41 + X) / 50 = 84 / (60 + X)
Hence, (60 + X).(41 + X) = 50 x 84
Hence, X2 + 101X + 2,460 = 4,200
Or, X2 + 101X - 1,740 = 0
It's a quadratic equation that can be factorized as:
(X - 15).(X + 116) = 0
Hence, X = 15
Hence, i = (X - 9) / 50 = (15 - 9) / 50 = 0.12 = 12%

The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $74,000. The machine would replace an old piece of equipment that costs $19,000 per year to operate. The new machine would cost $9,000 per year to operate. The old machine currently in use could be sold now for a salvage value of $31,000. The new machine would have a useful life of 10 years with no salvage value. Required: 1. What is the annual depreciation expense associated with the new bottling machine
Answer:
$7,400 per year
Explanation:
Data provided for computing the annual depreciation expense is here below:-
Automated bottling machine = $74,000
Useful life = 10 years
The calculation of annual depreciation expense is given below:-
Annual depreciation expense = Automated bottling machine ÷ Useful life
= $74,000 ÷ 10
= $7,400 per year
Therefore for computing the annual depreciation expense we simply divide the automated bottling machine by useful life.
The predetermined overhead rate for Zane Company is $5, comprised of a variable overhead rate of $3 and a fixed rate of $2. The amount of budgeted overhead costs at normal capacity of $150000 was divided by normal capacity of 30000 direct labor hours, to arrive at the predetermined overhead rate of $5. Actual overhead for June was $9500 variable and $6050 fixed, and standard hours allowed for the product produced in June was 3000 hours. The total overhead variance is
Answer:
Total Overhead Variance= $500 unfavorable
Explanation:
The total overhead variance is the difference between actual overhead and the applied overhead.
Actual Overhead = Variable + Fixed= $9500 + $6050= $ 15,550
Budgeted Overhead for 30000 direct labor hours = $ 150,000
Applied Overhead for 3000 hours = 3000 *$5= $15000
Total Overhead Variance= Actual Overhead Less Applied Overhead
= $15,500- $ 15000= $500 unfavorable
As actual is greater than applied it is unfavorable.
Answer:
$550 unfavorable.
Explanation:
Total actual overhead = $9,500 + $6,050 = $15,550
Total predetermined overhead = Predetermined overhead rate * Standard hours = $5 * 3,000 = $15,000
Total overhead variance = $15,550 - $15,000 = $550 unfavorable.
Note: It is unfavorable because total actual is greater than total predetermined overhead.

i. Discuss the rationale of organizing an industrial strike in resolving employee dispute with the
state, focusing on the detrimental effects strikes has on various stakeholders in an economy.
Answer: The answer is provided below
Explanation:
Strike action, is a work stoppage, that is caused by mass refusal of employees to work and it usually takes place in response to the employee grievances.
Some of the reasons for strike include:
• Low wages: Employees engage in strik as a way to show their grievances to their employers that they're not well paid and want a pay rise.
• Poor communication with the organisation: Another reason for strikes is the lack of trust between employers and the trade unions. In cases whereby workers believe their employers aren't transparent with them, strike can take place.
• Employee debt: When employees are owed certain amount of money and the employer is not doing anything reasonable about paying, the workers may strike.
• Working conditions: Workers can engage in strike in order to seek for improvement in their working conditions. This may be probably because they need better equipments, medical facilities etc.
The detrimental effects that strikes has on various stakeholders in an economy are:
Effects on employers: Strike affects business and it is vital for employers to know their rights and keep up to date with the current labour laws and legislation. Strike leads to loss of revenue for the owner and if the strike continues.for a long time, it can badly affect the business.
Effects on employees: Striking employees who belong to a union are under the obligation to strike when the union wants. They can be at risk of losing their wages and benefits such as sick and holiday pay, medical aid insurance if the strike drags continues for an extended period of time.
Effect on the economy: The impact of strike will be felt by the economy in the immediate and long term future. Strike can harm a country’s investment and reputation internationally. The GDP growth will also be affected and consequences of higher wages in some sectors would lead to higher inflation.
