Edison's Lights makes light bulbs. The company is currently producing well below its full capacity. Lamp Land has approached Edison's Lights with an offer to buy 20,000 light bulbs at $0.75 each. Edison;s Lights sells its light bulbs wholesale for $0.85 each; the average cost per unit is $0.83, of which $0.12 is fixed costs. If Edison's Lights were to accept Lamp Land's offer, what would be the increase in Edison's Lights' operating profits?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the increase in Edison's Lights' operating profits would be  $400

Explanation:

Analysis of the effects of Accepting Lamp Land's offer

Sales (20,000 x $0.75)                                   $15,000

Less Incremental Costs :

Variable Cost (20,000 x $0.73)                     ($14,600)

Operating Profit                                                    $400

thus

If Edison's Lights were to accept Lamp Land's offer, the increase in Edison's Lights' operating profits would be  $400

Answer 2

Based on the various costs to make the light bulb, Edison's lights would see an increase in operating profits of $800.

How would Edison's Lights see this profit?

The fixed costs would be the same throughout production so should be deducted:
= Average cost - fixed cost

= 0.83 - 0.12

= $0.71

The variable cost of making the bulb is $0.71 which means that the profit made on every bulb if sold at $0.75 would be:

= 0.75 - 0.71

= $0.04

The total profit would be:

= 20,000 bulbs x 0.04

= $800

A small firm builds television antennas. The investment in plan and equipment is $200,000. The variable cost per television antenna is $500. The price of the television antenna is $1000. How many television antennas would be needed for the firm to break even

Answers

Answer:

Break-even quantity is 400 units.

Explanation:

Below is the calculation for the number of television antennas:

At break-even, the firm's total revenue is equal to the total cost.

Cost of investment (fixed cost) = $200000

Variable cost = $500

Pirce of television antenna = $1000

At break-even, TR = TC

(P x Q) = (TFC + TVC)

1000Q = 200000 + 500Q

10000Q-500Q = 200000

500Q = 200000

Q = 200000 / 500

Q = 400 units

Thus break-even quantity is 400 units.

Suppose First Main Street Bank, Second Republic Bank, and Third Fidelity Bank all have zero excess reserves. The required reserve ratio is 25%. Manuel, a client of First Main Street Bank, deposits $1,800,000 into his checking account at First Main Street Bank.

Required:
Write down the table to show the effect of a new deposit on excess and required reserves

Answers

Answer:

Change in Excess Reserves $1,350,000

Change in Required Reserves $450,000

Explanation:

Preparation of the table to show the effect of a new deposit on excess and required reserves

Based on the information given since the REQUIRED RESERVE RATIO is 25%, which means that First Main Street Bank will hold 25% of its initial deposit leading to INCREASE in the REQUIRED RESERVE by the amount of $450,000 (25%*$1,800,000) while the remaining 75% (100%-25%) will be the EXCESS RESERVES of the amount of $1,350,000 (75%*$1,800,000).

Hence:

Amount Deposited: $1,800,000

Change in Excess Reserves=$1,350,000

Change in Required Reserves= $450,000

Therefore the effect of a new deposit on excess and required reserves will be:

Change in Excess Reserves $1,350,000

Change in Required Reserves $450,000

a 17-year annuity pays $1,100 per month, and payments are made at the end of each month. The interest rate is 16 percent compounded monthly for the first 6 years and 13 percent compounded monthly thereafter. What is the present value of the annuity

Answers

Answer:

The present value of the annuity is $73,091.50

Explanation:

Use the following formula to calculate the present value of the annuity

Present value of annuity = ( Annuity Payment x Annuity factor for first 6 years ) + [ ( Annuity Payment x Annuity factor for after 6 years ) x Present value factor  for 6 years ]

Where

Annuity Payment = $1,000

Annuity factor for first 6 years = 1 - ( 1 + 16%/12 )^-(6x12) / 16%/12 = 46.10028344

Annuity factor for after 6 years = 1 - ( 1 + 13%/12 )^-((17-6)x12) / 13%/12 = 70.0471029820

Present value factor for 6 years = ( 1 + 16%/12)^-(6x12) = 0.385329554163

Placing values in the formula

Present value of annuity = ( $1,000 x 46.10028344 ) + [ ( $1,000 x 70.0471029820 ) x 0.385329554163 ]

Present value of annuity = $46,100.28 + $26,991.22

Present value of annuity = $73,091.50

The cost of operating this generator would be $210,000 per year, and the generator will last for five years. If the firm buys the generator, it does not need to purchase any electricity from the local utility. The cost of capital is 11%. For the local utility option, consider five years of electricity purchases. For the generator option, assume immediate installation, with purchase and operating costs in the current year and operating costs continuing for the next four years.

MAPE = Total of Error % / Number of observations

1. Using the naïve method (most recent value) as the forecast for the next period, compute the following (Round your answers to two decimal places.) measures of forecast accuracy:

Note: See part 1 of the attached excel file for the determination of Naïve and Calculations of Error, Error^2 and Error % using the naïve method as the forecast for the next period.

From the attached excel file, we have:

MAE = 18.00 / 5 = 3.60

MSE = 78.00 / 5 = 15.60

MAPE = 127.23 / 5 = 25.45

2. Using the average of all the historical data as a forecast for the next period, compute the same three values. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Note: See part 2 of the attached excel file for the determination of Naïve and Calculations of Error, Error^2 and Error % using the average of all the historical data as a forecast for the next period.

From the attached excel file, we have:

MAE = 13.12 / 5 = 2.62

MSE = 55.55 / 5 = 11.11

MAPE = 97.94 / 5 = 19.59

3. Which method appears to provide the more accurate forecasts for the historical data?

The average of all the historical data provides the more accurate forecasts for the historical data comparing the values of its MAE, MSE and MAPE to the values of MAE, MSE and MAPE of Naive method. This is because the error values of the average of all the historical data are much lowest and more closest to the actual data.

Bobby bought 550 shares of stock at $61.25 per share. His broker charges 4% commission for round lots and 5% for odd lots. Calculate the total cost of the stock purchase.

Answers

Answer:

The total cost of the stock purchase was $ 35,371.87.

Explanation:

Since Bobby bought 550 shares of stock at $ 61.25 per share, and his broker charges 4% commission for round lots and 5% for odd lots, to calculate the total cost of the stock purchase the following calculation must be performed:

Odd lot = less than 100 shares, or sum not divisible by 100

550 = odd lot

(550 x 61.25) x 0.05 = X

33,687.5 x 0.05 = X

1,684.375 = X

33,687.5 + 1,684,375 = 35,371,875

Therefore, the total cost of the stock purchase was $ 35,371.87.

E(X) = 0 + 1.75 + 1.6667

E(X) = 3.417

E(X) = 3.42

This means the mean winning after a long play is expected to be $3.42

To know if the game should be paku in the long run : we calculate the payoff

Expected Value - cost of paly

Cost of play = $6

Payoff = 3.42 - 6 = - 2.58

Since, payoff is negative, the game should not be played.

As we’re well aware, vending machines are used to sell snacks and beverages, whereas newspapers are sold out of a box that allows anyone to take more than one paper. How does the concept of diminishing marginal utility explain the different distribution techniques for newspapers vs. snacks and beverages? Identify two additional examples of an item whose diminishing marginal utility is high. Remember: Marginal utility is the change in total utility that results from a one-unit increase in the quantity of a good consumed; diminishing marginal utility is the general tendency for marginal utility to decrease as the quantity of a good consumed increases.

Answers

Answer:

Because people do not need a second newspaper, it will not bring any more information to their lives, rather than a second soda can or snack.

Explanation:

The law of diminishing marginal utility states that there are some products or services to which an increase in the consumption will not bring the same utility for the user as the right amount, for example, if you eat a slice of pizza, it will bring certain benefit, you'll be less hungry but if you eat 7 slices of pizza at some point you'll no longer be hungry and it will rather make you sick, in this case vending machines have a higher marginal utility, a person could drink 3 or 4 drinks or take 4 or 5 snacks before it makes them feel sick, whilst a person that buys a person buying a newspaper won't need a second one, even if it is for his/her family, a 5 people house has enough newspaper by taking 1 copy of it.

Other examples of this can be a vacuum cleaner, you don't need a second one if you already have one, or a house buying a second house ain't as necessary as the first one.

During 2021, its first year of operations, Pave Construction provides services on account of $160,000. By the end of 2021, cash collections on these accounts total $110,000. Pave estimates that 25% of the uncollected accounts will be uncollectible. In 2022, the company writes off uncollectible accounts of $10,000. Required:

Answers

Answer:

Uncollectible amounts $12,000 debit

_____ Allowance for uncollectible amounts $12,000 credit

(Being the record of uncollectible)

Allowance for uncollectible amounts $10,000 debit

______ Accounts receivables $100,000 credit

(To record write off 2021)

Balance of the Allowance accounts:

$12,500 - 10,000 = 2,500

Allowance uncollectible amounts $15,000 debit

_____ Accounts receivables $15,000 credit

(To record write off 2022)

Explanation:

•The concluding part of the above question is record the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts on December 31 2021

• Record write off of accounts receivables in 2022

Sales $160,000

Collection $110,000

AR $50,000

The above is multiplied by 25% unexpected uncontrollable amount : $12,500

The Allowance method will not recognize the additional uncollectible amount expense when doing a writer off. It will only do it when the company does the adjusting entry considering their rates and ageing of their accounts
