Granite State Airlines serves the route between New York and Portsmouth, NH, with a single-flight-daily 100-seat aircraft. The one-way fare for discount tickets is $100, and the one-way fare for full-fare tickets is $150. Discount tickets can be booked up until one week in advance, and all discount passengers book before all full-fare passengers. Over a long history of observation, the airline estimates that full-fare demand is normally distributed, with a mean of 56 passengers and a standard deviation of 23, while discount-fare demand is normally distributed, with a mean of 88 passengers and a standard deviation of 44.
a) A consultant tells the airline they can maximize expected revenue by optimizing the booking limit. What is the optimal booking limit? (Hint: Use the standard normal cumulative distribution table)
b) The airline has been setting a booking limit of 44 on discount demand, to preserve 56 seats for full-fare demand. What is their expected revenue per flight under this policy? (Hint: First find the expected revenue when b= 0. Here you can assume Probability{df = k} = Ff(k+0.5) – Ff(k-0.5) and use a spreadsheet. Then using the recursive formula, find the expected revenue if b is increased by 1 until it reaches b=44 using a spreadsheet)
c) What is the expected gain from the optimal booking limit over the original booking limit?
d) A low-fare competitor enters the market and Granite State Airlines sees its discount demand drop to 44 passengers per flight, with a standard-deviation of 30. Full-fare demand is unchanged. What is the new optimal booking limit?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Given data: One flight with total seats = 100

Full fare passengers, cost per ticket=$150, mean=56 passengers, SD=23

Discount fare passengers, cost per ticket=$100, mean=88 passengers, SD=44

(a) Here, though there is a hint to use the CDF, since the confidence interval is not given we will make some simplying assumptions that will reduce the complexity of the question, of course keeping the question statistically correct.

this question wants us to maximize total revenue per flight (one way), we can do that by taking only full fare passengers or total revenue will be 150*100=$15,000, but since historical probability shows a mean of 56 with a standard deviation of 23, we can assume in best case scenario total full fare ticket passengers will be 56+23=79, leaving 21 tickets for discount passenger, in this case the total revenues will be 79*150+21*100=$13,950

(b) Now, the new constrained policy is giving a clear cut number of seats to each category of pasengers, 44 for discount (total revenues 44*100) and 56 for full fare (total revenues 56*150) both of which are within the probabilities given earlier (full fare mean=56, discount mean=88). Total revenues in case will be 44*100+56*150=$12,800.

(c) Gain is the difference of the excess revenues in both cases of optimal total revenues and limited seats policy or answer (a) - answer (b) = $13,950- $12,800=$1,150

(d) Realistically speaking, there is no answer for this question without a clear cut confidence interval. Another simplifying assumption we can make here is taking the mean passengers as expected bookings (can be tweaked once confidence interval or degree of significance is given). so total revenues in this case will be 44*100 from discount and 56*150 from full fare passengers. That is still similar to answer (c) due to our assumption/lack of constraints, so our optimal booking will be 54 full fare tickets and 44 discount passenger tickets. You can also take worst case scenario by subtracting SD of each passenger type from the mean or go the best case scenario in which SD of full fare will be added to the mean while the pending seats (left over from 100) will be the total to discount fare for optimal revenue collection.

Answer 2

Given knowledge: One flight with a total capacity of 100 passengers.

Passengers paying full fare, the average ticket price of $150, mean of 56 passengers, SD of 23

Participants on a discount price, with a ticket cost of $100, a mean of 88 passengers, and a standard deviation of 44.

(a) Spite of the fact there is a hint to utilize the CDF because statistical power is not supplied, we will make some presumptions to minimize the complexity of the question whilst retaining statistical accuracy.

We can do so by hardly taking full-fare passengers, in which particular instance total revenue will be 150*100=$15,000, but since historical probability shows a mean of 56 with a standard deviation of 23.

we can assume that total full fare ticket passengers will be 56+23=79, leaving 21 tickets for discount passengers, in which case total revenues will be[tex]79\times150+21\times100=\$13,950.[/tex]

(b) This new limited program now assigns a specific number of seats to each passenger category: 44 for discount (total revenues [tex]44\times100[/tex]) and 56 for full-fare (total revenues [tex]56\times150[/tex]), both of which are within the probability (full fare mean=56, discount mean=88).

In this instance, total revenues will be [tex]44\times100+56\times150=\$12,800.[/tex]

(c) Gain is the differential between the excess earnings in both the ideal overall revenue and restricted seat policies or $13,950- $12,800=$1,150.

(d) Without a well-defined standard error, there is no real answer to this question. Another assumption we might make to make things easier is to treat the average passengers as projected bookings. In this instance, total revenues will be 44*100 from discount passengers and 56*150 from full rate passengers.

Due to our assumption/lack of limitations, our ideal booking will be 54 full-price tickets and 44 discount passenger tickets, which is comparable to the solution (c).

You may alternatively go for the worst-case scenario by subtracting the SD of each passenger type from the mean, or the best-case scenario by adding the SD of the full fare to the mean and using the pending seats (leftover from 100) to discount the fare for optimal revenue collection.

Assume that at the end of 2019, Clampett, Inc. (an S corporation) distributes property (fair market value of $40,000, basis of $5,000) to each of its four equal shareholders (aggregate distribution of $160,000). At the time of the distribution, Clampett, Inc., has no corporate earnings and profits and J.D. has a basis of $50,000 in his Clampett, Inc., stock. What is J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution

Answers

Answer:

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution is $85,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution we would have to use the following formula:

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=original basis +increase/decrease in basis from gain from property distribution

original basis=$50,000

basis from gain from property distribution=$40,000-$5,000

basis from gain from property distribution=$35,000

Therefore, J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=$50,000+$35,000

J.D.'s stock basis after the distribution=$85,000

Bass Accounting Services expects its accountants to work a total of 26 comma 000 direct labor hours per year. The​ company's estimated total indirect costs are $ 390 comma 000. The company uses direct labor hours as the allocation base for indirect costs. What is the indirect cost allocation​ rate? A. $ 18.00 per hour B. $ 30.00 per hour C. $ 15.00 per hour D. $ 150.00 per hour

Answers

Answer:

C) $ 15.00 per hour

Explanation:

total labor hours 26,000 per year

total indirect costs $390,000

if the company allocates indirect costs according to labor hours employed, the cost allocation rate should be:

$390,000 / 26,000 = $15 per direct labor hour

This means that for every labor hour employed, $15 will be allocated as indirect costs, e.g. a client requires 50 labor hours per year and $750 (= 50 x $15) in indirect costs.

Answer:

The correct answer is option (c) $15 per hour

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

Expected wok for accountants = 26,000

The company estimated total indirect costs - 390,000

The next step is to find the allocation base cost for indirect cost.

Now,

The indirect labor cost is calculated as follows:

indirect cost allocation​ rate:

= Total indirect costs/Labor hours

= $390,000/26,000

= $15 per hours

A Company manufactures coffee tables. The Company has a policy of adding a 20% markup to full costs and currently has excess capacity. The following information pertains to the company's normal operations per month: Output units 30,000 tables Machine-hours 6000 hours Direct manufacturing labor-hours 10,000 hours Direct materials per unit $50 Direct manufacturing labor per hour $12.00 Variable manufacturing overhead costs $322,500 Fixed manufacturing overhead costs $1,200,000 Product and process design costs $600,000 Marketing and distribution costs $1,290,000 For long-run pricing of the coffee tables, what price will most likely be used by the Company

Answers

Answer:

$201.30

Explanation:

Direct materials = $50

Total Direct manufacturing labor =  $12.00 * 10,000 = $120,000

Variable manufacturing overhead costs = $322,500

Fixed manufacturing overhead costs = $1,200,000

Product and process design costs = $600,000

Marketing and distribution costs = $1,290,000

Total cost apart from direct material = $120,000 + $322,500 + $1,200,000 + $600,000 + $1,290,000 = $3,532,500

Cost per unit apart from direct material = $3,532,500 / 30,000 = $117.75

Total cost per unit = $117.75 + $50 = $167.75

Mark up per unit = $167.75 * 20% = $33.55

Price per unit = $167.75 + $33.55 = $201.30

Answer: $201.30

Explanation:

To solve this all the expenses incurred per unit need to be included in the unit.

Direct Materials $50

Direct Manufacturing Labour Hours per unit

= (10,000/30,000 units) * 12 (direct Manufacturing Labour per hour)

= $4

Variable Manufacturing Overhead Cost

= 322,500/30,000

= $10.75

Fixed manufacturing overhead costs

= 1,200,000/30,000

= $40

Product and process design costs

= 600,000/30,000

= $20

Marketing and distribution costs

= 1,290,000/30,000

= $43

Adding everything up,

= 50 + 4 + 10.75 + 40 + 20 + 43

= $167.75

Company adds 20% to costs so,

= 167.75 * ( 1 + 20%)

= $201.30

Company will most likely sell at $201.30

A total of 20,700 machine-hours were used during the year. Required: 1. Compute the amount of underapplied or overapplied overhead cost for the year. 2. Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured for the year.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of given question is shown  below:-

The difference between the actual accumulated manufacturing overhead and the applied overhead measured on the basis of actual activity carried out at standard cost is the overhead expense under or over applied.

When applied overheads, the overheads are considered underapplied less than the actual overhead.

When overheads are applied, the overheads are considered overapplied higher than the real overhead.

So, we need to compute the applied overhead to find out the under or over applied overhead.

Applied Manufacturing Overhead = Total Machine Hours actually recorded × Predetermined Overhead Rate

= 20,700 MHs × $25

= $517,500

As we can see that the applied overheads are greater than the actual incurred overhead, so, Overheads are overapplied.

Over-Applied Overhead Cost = Applied Overhead – Actual Overhead

= 517,500 – 507,500

= $10,000

HI Corporation is considering the purchase of a machine that promises to reduce operating costs by the same amount for every year of its 5-year useful life. The machine will cost $211,980 and has no salvage value. The machine has a 14% internal rate of return. (Ignore income taxes.) Click here to view Exhibit 13B-1 and Exhibit 13B-2 to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using the tables provided. Required: What are the annual cost savings promised by the machine? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Answers

Answer:

Annual savings = 61,746.

Explanation:

The Net Present Value (NPV) is the difference between the present value (PV) of cash outflows  and PV of cash inflow

At the internal rate of return the PC of annual cash savings will be equal to the investment cost

Initial cost = 211980

PV = annual cash savings = A× (1- (1+r)^(-n)/ r

A=?  r-internal rate of return, 14%, n-number of years- 5

211980 = A  (1- (1.14)^(-5)/ 0.14

211,980 = A× 3.433080969

A= 211,980/3.43308

A= 61746.28619

Annual savings = 61,746.

Answers

Answer:

D. $246,000

Explanation:

As per the given question the solution of direct material cost assigned to good units​ completed is provided below:-

To reach Cost transferred out we need to follow some steps which is following below:-

Step 1. Cost per unit = cost of material used ÷ Units started

= $300,000 ÷ 12,500

= $24

Now,

Step 2. Goods units completed = Started units × Cost per unit

= 6,250 × $24

= $150,000

Step 3. Normal spoilage = Cards units × Cost per unit

= 4,000 × $24

= $96,000

and finally

Cost transferred out = Goods units completed + Normal spoilage

= $150,000 + $96,000

= $246,000

To reach allocation of Cost transferred out we simply put the values into formula.

elb Company currently manufactures 50,000 units per year of a key component for its manufacturing process. Variable costs are $2.95 per unit, fixed costs related to making this component are $67,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $61,500 per year. The allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys this component. The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.90 per unit. Calculate the total incremental cost of making 50,000 units and buying 50,000 units. Should it continue to manufacture the component, or should it buy this component from the outside supplier

Answers

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

Incremental Cost of Making Product

Variable costs are $2.95 per unit and 50,000 units are to be made. Total Variable Cost is therefore,

= 2.95 * 50,000

= $147,500

Fixed costs associated with the production are$ 67,000 so added tl the variable costs is,

= 147,500 + 67,000

= $214,500

$214,500 is the cost making the product.

Cost of Buying Product

Component can be bought for $3.90 per unit. 50,000 units to be bought gives,

= 50,000 * 3.9

= $195,000

Cost of buying is $195,000

Decision

Company should buy the component as it spends less in buying it than I making it.

Note - Allocated fixed costs were not included in calculation because they will be there regardless of the decision. Hence the term, incremental costs.

Answer:

elb Company

a) Incremental Cost of making 50,000 units:

Variable costs = $2.95 x 50,000 = $147,500

Avoidable fixed costs = $67,000

Total = $214,500

b) Incremental Cost of buying 50,000

Buy-in costs =- $3.90 x 50,000 = $195,000

c) The company should buy this component from the outside supplier.

Explanation:

In make or buy decisions, only variable and avoidable costs are taken into consideration.  Unavoidable fixed costs are sunk costs which must be incurred irrespective of the choice made.

Therefore, the unavoidable allocated fixed costs of $61,500 should not be taken into consideration.  Afterall, no matter the decision, it would still be incurred and allocated.

Who has the comparative advantageLOADING... in producing​ oil? A. Norway has a comparative advantage producing oil because its opportunity cost of producing oil is lower. B. Neither country has a comparative advantage producing oil because their opportunity costs of producing oil are equal. C. The United Kingdom has a comparative advantage producing oil because its opportunity cost of producing oil is lower. D. Norway has a comparative advantage producing oil because it can produce more oil. E. The United Kingdom has a comparative advantage producing oil because it can produce more oil.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option D) Norway has a comparative advantage producing oil because it can produce more oil.

Explanation:

Norway currently produces 1,398 thousand barrels of crude oil per day. At this capacity, it can produce more oil in comparison to United Kingdom that produces 1000 thousand barrels per day.

This statistics gives Norway a comparative advantage over United Kingdom.

Also comparing the consumption rate for both countries with Norway having a population of 5,421,241 which is far less than 66, 650,000 of the United Kingdom, shows that Norway will have enough to cater for her citizens as well as for exports.

Hancock Medical Supply Co., earned $90,500 of revenue on account during Year 1, its first year of operation. During Year 1, Hancock collected $71,400 of cash from its receivables accounts. The company did not write-off any uncollectible accounts. It estimates that it will be unable to collect 1% of revenue on account. What is the net realizable value of receivables that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1

Answers

Answer:

$18,195

Explanation:

The computation of the net realizable value is shown below:

As we know that

Net Realizable Value of Receivables =  Ending Accounts Receivable - Estimated Uncollectibles  amount

where,

Ending balance of Accounts Receivable is

= Revenue on Account - Accounts collected

= $90,500 - $71,400

= $191,00

And,

Estimated Uncollectibles i.e  Bad debt Expense is

= Revenue on Account × given percentage

= $90,500 × 1%

= $905

So, the net realizable value is

= $19,100 - $905

= $18,195

We simply applied the above formula

We can consider the case where wine producers in Chile ask the government to tax imported wines from France with a tax. They consider that this tax would increase both the State's tax revenue and employment in the Chilean wine industry. What kind of economic argument is this in relation to international trade? Do you agree or not with the argument presented by wine producers in Chile? If the state government adopts this position, does it consider it to be good economic policy or not? Briefly explain your answers using the concepts of international trade discussed in your Textbook.

Answers

Answer:

If the Government executes taxes on lavender trade from France (therefore creating French wine beloved than national wine), the local wine manufacturers would take pleasure in such a strategy because it would create French wine much economical (since it'll value extra) and therefore doubtless growth in local wine drinking. This might additional because additional service chances within the national wine region and conjointly rise the Government's government revenue (income from taxes on the wine trade). Such a procedure is hidden wanting i.e. an advocate procedure in expressions of Global trade wherever the govt. is protective the benefits of the native wine manufacturers by heavy imports.

If the Chilean wine trade isn't terribly inexpensive in relations of value, feature etc. and remains at an emergent phase then it's vital to safeguard the local trade from global competition.

Grab Manufacturing Co. purchased a 10-ton draw press at a cost of $183,000 with terms of 4/15, n/45. Payment was made within the discount period. Shipping costs were $4,300, which included $270 for insurance in transit. Installation costs totaled $12,900, which included $3,700 for taking out a section of a wall and rebuilding it because the press was too large for the doorway. The capitalized cost of the 10-ton draw press is: Multiple Choice $192,880. $190,880. $196,380. $197,880.

Answers

Answer:

$192,880

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

Cost of 10-ton draw press is $183,000 and if the cost paid before 15 days, there will be a 4% discount.

Discount Value is

= Cost of Draw Press × Discount Rate

= $183,000 × 4%

= $7,320

Total Capitalized Amount is

= (Total Cost of Draw Press - Discount Value) + Shipping Cost + Installation Cost

= ($183,000 - $7,320) + $4,300 + $12,900

= $175,680 + $4,300 + $12,900

= $192,880

According to the analysis, the capitalized cost of the 10-ton draw press is $192,880.  

Because any cost which incurred for using an asset should be capitalized.

In performing accounting services for small businesses, you encounter the following situations per taining to cash sales. 1. Poole Company enters sales and sales taxes separately in its cash register. On April 10, the register totals are sales $30,000 and sales taxes $1,500. 2. Waterman Company does not segregate sales and sales taxes. Its register total for April 15 is $25,680, which includes a 7% sales tax. Prepare the entry to record the sales transactions and related taxes for each client.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, journal entries of the given data are as follow:-

1.Journal Entry of Poole Company

April  10

Cash A/c  Dr.  $31,500

 To Sales A/c $30,000

               To Sales tax payable A/c $1,500

(Being the sales and sales tax payable is recorded)

2. Since Register total for April $25,680 includes 7% sales tax.

So Sales of Waterman Company

= Registered Total Amount ÷ (1 + Sales Tax Rate)

= $25,680 ÷ (1 + 7%)

= $25,680 ÷ 1.07

= $24,000

Now

Sales tax = $24,000 × 7% = $1,680

Journal Entry of Waterman Company

On 15 April  

Cash A/c     Dr.  $25,680

 To Sales A/c   $24,000

               To Sales tax payable A/c $1,680

(Being the sales and sales tax payable is recorded)    

(Ignore income taxes in this problem.) Assume you can invest money at a 14 percent rate of return. How much money must be invested now to be able to withdraw $5,000 from this investment at the end of each year for eight years, the first withdrawal occurring one year from now

Answers

Answer:

the original amount invested = $285,714.29

Explanation:

Let original amount invested be x

Amount to be withdrawn per year = $5,000

Total number of years = 8

Total amount to be withdrawn = 5,000 × 8 = $40,000

Next, we are told that 14% return on x is realized,

∴ 14% return on x = $40,000

0.14 × x = 40,000

x = 40,000 ÷ 0.14 = $285,714.29

Therefore, the original amount invested = $285,714.29

The Converting Department of Hopkinsville Company had 1,200 units in work in process at the beginning of the period, which were 75% complete. During the period, 25,200 units were completed and transferred to the Packing Department. There were 1,360 units in process at the end of the period, which were 25% complete. Direct materials are placed into the process at the beginning of production. Determine the number of equivalent units of production with respect to direct materials and conversion costs. If an amount is zero, enter in "0".

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent Units

Material cost = 26,560

Conversion Cost= 25,540

Explanation:

We would assume the company uses  weighted average method of valuation.

Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.

Equivalent units = Degree of completion (%) × Number of units

Option A has an expected value of $2,000, a minimum payoff of -$4,000, and a maximum payoff of $18,000. Option B has an expected value of $2,200, a minimum payoff of -$1,000, and a maximum payoff of $6,000. Option C has an expected value of $1,900, a minimum payoff of $100, and a maximum payoff of $2,000. In this situation, a risk-averse decision maker would pay __________ for his risk aversion, and a risk-seeking decision maker would pay __________ for his risk seeking.

Answers

Answer:

Option A is the answer

Explanation:

A risk-averse decision maker will go for the option with the least chance of loss incurred (the highest minimum payoff of $100) and settle for an expected value of 1900. He'll pay for his risk avoidance in this way (2200-1900 = 300) while a risk-seeking decision maker will go for the option with the highest payoff chances ($18,000), regardless of the possibility of failure. This would make the risk-seeking decision maker go for option A.

The focused differentiation strategy differs from the differentiation strategy in that Group of answer choices a. the focused differentiators have a broader competitive scope b. the value-creating activities of focused differentiators are more constrained. c. focused differentiators target a narrower customer market d. there are fewer risks with the focused differentiation strategy.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option C) The focused differentiation strategy differs from the differentiation strategy in that focused differentiators target a narrower customer market.

Explanation:

Product differentiation is a marketing strategy that creates competitive advantage with designing a product superior to that of rivals, priced higher and sometimes created for exclusive users.

However, the focused differentiation strategy takes it a step further by targeting a small group of customers with ostensible goods.

The bourgeoisie are the main target for focused differentiators. They have the economic power to foot the bill and they enjoy the exclusivity of being the few to consume such products. A good example of such products is the Bugatti and Ferrari.

Pharoah Company has had 4 years of record earnings. Due to this success, the market price of its 500,000 shares of $4 par value common stock has increased from $15 per share to $55. During this period, paid-in capital remained the same at $6,000,000. Retained earnings increased from $4,500,000 to $30,000,000. CEO Don Ames is considering either (1) a 15% stock dividend or (2) a 2-for-1 stock split. He asks you to show the before-and-after effects of each option on (a) retained earnings, (b) total stockholders’ equity, and (c) par value per share.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

1) 15% Stock Dividend-

Retained Earnings = Increase Value of Retained Earnings - (Total Shares × 15% Stock Dividend × Increase Value of Per Share)

= $30,000,000 - (500,000 × 15% × $55)

= $30,000,000 - $4,125,000

= $25,875,000

2)  2-for-1 stock split-

Retained earnings = $30,000,000

The 2-for-1 stock split will not impact retained earnings.

a and b) The before, after effects of each option are shown in the attachment below

c) Par value per share  

Par value per share of stock dividend = $4

Par value per share of 2-for-1 stock split = $4  ÷ 2 = $2

According to the analysis, stock dividend will not make any impact.
