Variable overhead variance  = $2,550 favorable

Explanation:

Flexible budget is that which is that which recognizes the cost behavior and is used for control purpose. It is prepared based on the actual level of activity achieved.

The variable overhead rate variance is the difference between the actual variable overhead cost and the actual hours multiplied by the standard variable overhead rate.

Actual hours of labour should have cost

a. The PPP condition implies that the rupee has depreciated relative to the dollar.
b. The PPP condition implies that the rupee has appreciated relative to the dollar

Answers

Answer:

b. The PPP condition implies that the rupee has appreciated relative to the dollar

Explanation:

Remember, the inflation rate looks at how the prices of goods and services in a country increases over a period of time, and it's effects on the the purchasing value or power of money in the country.

As in this scenario, India had 2 percent inflation rate while United States had 2.7 which is a higher price increases not in a different period but the same one, meaning that the Purchasing power parity (PPP) condition of the rupee has appreciated relative to the dollar from 2008-2012.

This limitation is not imposed on businesses with average annual gross receipts of $26 million or less for the prior three taxable years D. All of the choices are false E. All of the choices are true

Answers

Answer:

Limitation on Business Interest Deductions:

B. The limitation is calculated as a percentage of the taxpayers total taxable income

Explanation:

30% (or 50% for years 2019 and 2020, as amended by the CARES Act) of the adjusted taxable income of a business is the limit of business interest expense that is allowed by the IRS.  The excess after this limitation may be carried forward by the tax paying organization to future tax years indefinitely until the interest expense is completely applied.

Following the CARES Act, "the business interest expense deduction limitation does not apply to certain small businesses whose gross receipts are $26 million or less, electing real property trades or businesses, electing farming businesses, and certain regulated public utilities. The $26 million gross receipts threshold, which applies for the 2020 tax year, is adjusted annually for inflation."

Assume the Apple division of the Gala Company had the following results last year (in thousands). Managements required rate of return is 10% and the weighted average cost of capital is 8%. Its effective tax rate is 30%. What is Apple division's residual income

Answers

Answer:

$50,000

Explanation:

The computation of the residual income for each division is shown below:

As we know that

Residual income = Operating income - target income

where,  

Operating income is given in the question  

And, the target income could be calculated by

= Average invested assets × required rate of return

= $4,500,000 × 10%

= $450,000

So, the residual income is

= $500,000 - $450,000

= $50,000

Instead of a dividend of $1.60 per share, the company has announced a share repurchase of $16,000 worth of stock. How many shares will be outstanding after the repurchase?

Answers

Answer:

9,690 stocks

Explanation:

some information is missing:

Market Value Balance Sheet

Cash            $45,300        Equity $515,300

Fixed assets    $470,000    

Total           $515,300        Total         $515,300

total number of shares outstanding = 10,000

stock's market price = $515,300 / 10,000 = $51.53

stocks repurchased = $16,000 / $51.53 = 310.50, but we must round down to 310 stocks

stocks outstanding after repurchase = 10,000 - 310 = 9,690

A company’s common stock has a market value of $63.18 per share and its next dividend is expected to be $3.26 per share. The stock’s beta is 1.2, the tax rate is 35%, and the market risk premium is 6.1% per year. The yield to maturity for the company’s long-term debt is 6.4% per year. If the riskiness of the company’s equity requires that it provide a risk premium of 3.2% per year over the yield on its long-term debt, what is the company’s annual cost of internal equity financing?

Answers

Answer:

Cost of equity = 9.6%

Explanation:

The cost of equity is the return a firm theoretically pays to its equity investors, In order to calculate the cost of equity here we need to add up the yield to maturity for the company's long term debt and the risk premium per year over the yield on its long term debt.

Solution

Cost of equity = Yield to maturity + Risk premium

Cost of equity = 6.4% + 3.2%

Cost of equity = 9.6%

Currently Baldwin is paying a dividend of $1.10 (per share). If this dividend stayed the same, but the stock price rose by 10% what would be the dividend yield

Answers

Answer:

Dividend yield = 227.06%

Explanation:

Assuming the Closing stock market summary for Baldwin company is $44.05

Dividend yield = Dividend * 100 / (Price* (1 + growth rate) )

Dividend yield = 1.10 * 100 / (44.05 * (1+0.10) )

Dividend yield = 1.10 * 100 / (44.05 * 1.10)

Dividend yield = 110 / 48.455

Dividend yield = 2.2706

Dividend yield = 227.06%

Quantitative Problem 1: Assume today is December 31, 2017. Barrington Industries expects that its 2018 after-tax operating income [EBIT(1 – T)] will be $450 million and its 2018 depreciation expense will be $65 million. Barrington's 2018 gross capital expenditures are expected to be $110 million and the change in its net operating working capital for 2017 will be $30 million. The firm's free cash flow is expected to grow at a constant rate of 4.5% annually. Assume that its free cash flow occurs at the end of each year. The firm's weighted average cost of capital is 9%; the market value of the company's debt is $3 billion; and the company has 180 million shares of common stock outstanding. The firm has no preferred stock on its balance sheet and has no plans to use it for future capital budgeting projects. Using the free cash flow valuation model, what should be the company's stock price today (December 31, 2017)? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ per share

Answers

Answer:

$29.630

Explanation:

For computation of stock price first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-

Free cash flow = EBIT (1 - T) + Depreciation - Capital expenditure - Working capital

= $450 million + $65 million - $110 million - $30 million

=  $375 million

Value of firm = Free cash flow ÷ (WACC - Growth)

= $375 million ÷ (9% - 4.5%)

= $375 million ÷ 0.045

= $8,333.33 million

Value of equity = Value of firm - Value of debt

= $8,333.33 million - $3,000 million

= $5,333.33 million

Stock price = Value of equity ÷ Outstanding shares

= $5,333.33 million ÷ 180 million

= $29.630

Management believes the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) will be $84,900 if the economy is normal. If there is a recession, EBIT will be 20 percent lower, and if there is a boom, EBIT will be 30 percent higher. The tax rate is 34 percent. What is the EPS in a recession

Answers

Answer:

The EPS in a recession is $1.71.

Explanation:

Earnings per share (EPS) = Earnings Attributable to holders of Common Stocks ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks

Earnings Attributable to holders of Common Stocks = ($84,900 - ($84,900 × 0.34)) × 80 %

                                                                                       = $44,827.20

a company bought a piece of equipment for A200 and expects to use it for eight years. The company that plans to

Answers

Answer:

The correct option b. $2,567.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

A company bought a piece of equipment for $49,200 and expects to use it for eight years. The company then plans to sell it for $4,000. The company has already recorded depreciation of $42,632.60. Using the double-declining-balance method, what is the company's annual depreciation expense for the upcoming year? (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

a. $11,300.

b. $2,567.

c. $19,200.

d. $1,642.

The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the annual depreciation expenses.

Double declining depreciation method is an accelerated depreciation technique due to the fact the depreciation expenses are charged faster under it than under straight-line depreciation method.

The depreciation of double declining method is calculated by by multiplying the rate of straight-line depreciation method by 2.

From the question, the already recorded depreciation of $42,632.60 is the accumulated depreciation expenses for the 7th year.

Since the upcoming year is the 8th year which is the last year, the depreciation expense for it can be calculated as by adjusting for the residual value of $4,000 follows:

Equipment cost = $49,200

Accumulated Depreciation = $42,632.60

Residual value = $4,000

Estimated useful life = 8 years

Therefore, we have:

Straight line method depreciation rate = 1 / Estimated useful life = 1 / 8 = 0.125, or 12.50%

Double declining depreciation rate = Straight line method depreciation rate * 2 = 12.50% * 2 = 25%

Beginning book value of the equipment in the upcoming year or in the 8th year = Equipment cost - Accumulated Depreciation = $49,200 - $42,632.60 = $6,567.40

Annual depreciation expense for the upcoming year or for the 8th year = Beginning book value of the equipment - Residual value = $6,567.40 - $4,000 = $2,567

Therefore, the correct option b. $2,567.

A firm recently reported EBITDA of $3.95 million, depreciation of $1.20 million, and had a tax rate of 40%. The firm's expenditures on fixed assets and net operating working capital totaled $1.2 million. How much was its free cash flow, in millions

Answers

Answer:

Free cash flow=$2.37

Explanation:

Calculation for how much was its free cash flow, in millions

Using this formula

Free cash flow =[ (Operating income * (1- tax rate) + Depreciation- Expenditures on fixed assets and net operating working capital]

Where,

Operating income =$3.95

(1- tax rate) = (1 - .40)

Depreciation=$1.20

Expenditures on fixed assets and net operating working capital=$1.2

Let plug in the formula

Free cash flow = [($3.95 * (1 - .40) + $1.20 - $1.2]

Free cash flow=$3.95*0.60+$1.20-$1.2

Free cash flow=$2.37+$1.20-$1.2

Free cash flow=$3.57-$1.2

Free cash flow=$2.37

Therefore the amount of its free cash flow, in millions will be $2.37

c. total variable overhead variance -   $3,504  Unfavorable

d. fixed overhead cost variance - $65   unfavorable

e. Fixed overhead volume variance -$ 112.5   unfavorable

Explanation:

Variable overhead rate variance                                          $

8,620 hours should have cost (8,620  × $0.80)               6896

but did cost                                                                         10,344

Variable overhead rate variance                                    3,448 Unfavorable

Standard rate                                                                    ×   $0.80

Efficiency variance                                                           $ 56 unfavorable

Efficiency variance  =$ 56 unfavorable

Total variable overhead= rate variance +efficiency

Total variable overhead =  $3,448 UF + $ 56 UF =  $3,504  U

Total variable overhead = $3,504  Unfavorable

Fixed overhead cost variance

                                                                      $

Budgeted cost                                           968

Actual cost                                                1,033

Fixed overhead cost Variance           65   unfavorable

Fixed Overhead Volume

                                                                            Units

Budgeted units                                                 2,150                                      

Actual    units                                                       1,900

Variance                                                                  250

Standard fixed cost per unit (Notes)                $0.45

Volume Variance                                             112.5   unfavorable
