Net sales$688,500 $450,000 Cost of goods sold 337,364 133,200 Determine the 2016 and 2017 trend percents for net sales using 2016 as the base year.

Answers

Answer:

Trend- % change in sales =  34.64%

Explanation:

Trend analysis entails determining the performance of a business over time by comparing its performance data from one period to another. The aim of trend analysis is to identify the behavior of a set of ratios over a period of time by comparing them across different years.

To determine the trend for a particular data, we use the formula below

% Change in variable =

(Current year figure - Previous year figure)/Previous year figure × 100

DATA

Current year figure  for sales (2017) - 450,000

Previous year figure for sale (2016) - 688,500

% change in sales =   (450,000 -688,500)/688,500 × 100 = 34.64%

% change in sales =  34.64%

This implies that the company made sales in 2017 which is 34.64% less than that made in 2016

Answers

Answer:

Direct material price variance= $29,120 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard: Direct materials 6 pounds $4.30 per pound $25.80

Actual= Jackson purchased 145,600 pounds of direct material at a total cost of $655,200.

To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Actual price= 655,200/145,600= $4.5

Direct material price variance= (4.3 - 4.5)*145,600

Direct material price variance= $29,120 unfavorable

Answers

Complete Question:

Alpha company is looking at two different capital structures, one an all-equity firm and the other a leverages firm with $2 million of debt financing at 8% interest. The all-equity firm will have a value of $4 million and 400,000 shares outstanding. The leveraged firm will have 200,000 shares outstanding.

a. Find the break even EBIT for Alpha company using EPS if there are no corporate taxes.

b.Find the break even EBIT for Alpha company using EPS if the corporate tax rate is 30%

c. What do you notice about these two break-even EBITs for Alpha company?

Answer:

Alpha Company

a. Break-even EBIT, using EPS without taxes:

= (EBIT - Interest 1) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares =  (EBIT - Interest 2) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares

With alternative 1, there are no taxes, so:

= (EBIT - Interest 1)/No. of shares = EBIT - Interest 2)/No. of shares

= (EBIT - 0)/400,000 = EBIT - ($2,000,000 x 8%)/200,000

= (EBIT/400,000( = (EBIT - $160,000)/200,000

cross-multiplying:

EBIT200,000 = EBIT$64,000,000,000

dividing by 200,000:

EBIT = $64,000,000,000/200,000

EBIT = $320,000

b. Break-even EBIT, using EPS with taxes:

= (EBIT - Interest 1) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares =  (EBIT - Interest 2) * (1 - taxes)/No. of shares

= {(EBIT - $0) * (1 - 0.30)}/400,000 = {(EBIT - $160,000) * (1 - 0.30)}/200,000

= EBIT/400,000 = (EBIT - $112,000)/200,000

cross-multiplying:

= EBIT 200,000 = EBIT $44,800,000,000

EBIT = $44,800,000,000/200,000

= $224,000

c. The two break-even EBITs are not the same.  When there are taxes, the break-even EBIT is $224,000, less by $96,000.

Explanation:

a) Data:

Alternative 1: All Equity:

No. of shares = 400,000

Value of shares = $4,000,000

Debt = $0

Interest on Debt = $0

Alternative 2: Equity + Debt:

No. of shares = 200,000

Value of shares = $2,000,000

Debt = $2,000,000

Interest on Debt = 8% or $160,000

b) Alpha's break-even EBIT is the point when the EBIT under alternative 1 are equal to the EBIT under alternative 2.  This implies that under these given alternative financing options, the earnings before interest and taxes are before no matter the alternative chosen.

Answers

Answer:

long 1 ABC Jan 75 Call

Explanation:

This type of customer (or investor) is bearish about the market, i.e. he/she believes that the stock prices will drop. The investor will try to create a net credit position (the credit spread = $75 - $65). The maximum possible profit is created when the stock price falls below $65, and the maximum possible loss would occur if the price went above $75. This investor is a net seller, since it is a short call spread.

How much does real GDP per capita need to increase in South Korea in 2011 to achieve a growth rate consistent with its 60-year average (1950-2010)

Answers

Answer:  $‭1,820

Explanation:

From the snapshot it is shown that for the period 1950 to 2010, South Korea had achieved a growth rate of 5.54% per annum.

In 2010, South Korea had a Real GDP of $32,855.

To maintain the 5.54% rate, the GDP pr capita would have to increase by;

= $32,855 * 5.54%

= $‭1,820.167‬

= $‭1,820

A manufacturer of hospital supplies has a uniform annual demand for 500,000 boxes of bandages. It costs ​$10 to store one box of bandages for one year and $250 to set up the plant for production. How many times a year should the company produce boxes of bandages in order to minimize the total storage and setup​ costs?

Answers

Answer: company can produce boxes 100 times per year.

Explanation:

Ordering cost per order, S = $250

Annual demand, D = 500,000

Holding or carrying cost per unit,  = $10

Economic order Quantity = [tex]\sqrt{2 x Annual demand X ordering cost /carrying cost}[/tex]

=[tex]\sqrt{ 2 X 500,000 X 250 /10}[/tex] =  [tex]\sqrt{25,000,000}[/tex] = 5000

Optimal order quantity = 5000 boxes.

Number of times company can produce boxes =  Annual Demand/ Optimal order quantity =  500,000 / 5000 = 100  times

2. At an oral auction for used car, half of all bidders have a value of $1,500 and half have a value of $1,900. What is the expected winning bid if there are three bidders

Answers

Answer:  $1,700

Explanation:

The expected winning bid is the weighted average of the 2 different bids.

Half of the bids are for $1,500 so weight of $1,500 is 0.5.

Half of the bids are for $1,900 so weight of $1,900 is 0.5.

Expected Winning bid = (1,500 * 0.5) + ( 1,900 * 0.5)

= 750 + 950

= $1,700

Answers

Answer:

28.23%

Explanation:

ABC corporation has a sales of $17,910,000

The net operating income is $1,199,970

The average operating assets is $4,250,000

Therefore, the ROI can be calculated as follows

ROI= Net operating income/Average operating assets

= $1,199,970/$4,250,000

= 0.2823×100

= 28.23%

Hence the division's return on investment is closest to 28.23%

Gross sales for the quarter are projected as follows:
January $20,000
February $10,000
March $40,000
Accounts receivable on December 31 were $30,000.

A. $37,000
B. $32,000
C. $30,250
D. $47,200

Answers

Answer:

Total cash collection= $30,250

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash sales are 25 percent of total sales each month.

Sales on account:

50 percent in the month of the sale

30 percent in the month after the sale

20 percent two months after the sale.

Sales:

January $20,000

February $10,000

March $40,000

We need to calculate the cash collection for March:

Sales on cash March= 40,000*0.25= 10,000

Sales on account March= (40,000*0.75)*0.5= 15,000

Sales on account February= (10,000*0.75)*0.3= 2,250

Sales on account January= (20,000*0.75)*0.2= 3,000

Total cash collection= $30,250

On November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 8% note payable, with a face value of $9,000. What is the maturity value (principal plus interest) of the note on March 1

Answers

Answer:

$9,240

Explanation:

Computation of Maturity Value of the note

First step is to find the interest amount using this formula

Interest amount=(Face value *Note payable)*Numbers of days to signed/Numbers of days in a year

Let plug in the formula

Interest Amount = ($9,000*8%)*120/365

Interest amount = $720 * 120 / 360

Interest amount=720*0.33333

$240

Next step is to calculate for the Maturity value using this formula

Maturity Value = Face value +Interest amount

Let plug in the formula

Maturity value =$9,000 + $240

Maturity value = $9,240

Therefore the maturity value of the note on March 1 will be $9,240

Labor                         $40,000       $43,000 Raw Materials:          $45,000        $51,000 Energy:                       $10,000         $9,000 Capital Employed:  $250,000     $262,000 Other:                           $2,000         $6,000

multi-factor = total output / (labor costs + materials costs + overhead costs)

MFP 2015 = $300,000 / ($40,000 + $45,000 + $10,000 + $250,000 + $2,000) = 0.8646

MFP 2016 = $330,000 / ($43,000 + $51,000 + $9,000 + $262,000 + $6,000) = 0.8895

% change = (0.8895 - 0.8646) / 0.8646 = 0.0288 = 2.88%

raw materials productivity = total output / materials costs

raw materials productivity 2015 = $300,000 / $45,000 = 6.6667

raw materials productivity 2016 = $330,000 / $51,000 = 6.4706

% change = (6.4706 - 6.6667) / 6.6667 = -0.0294 = -2.94%

labor productivity = total output / labor costs

labor productivity 2015 = $300,000 / $40,000 = 7.5

labor productivity 2016 = $330,000 / $43,000 = 7.6744

% change = (7.6744 - 7.5) / 7.5 = 0.0233 = 2.33%

Booher Book Stores has a beta of 1.0. The yield on a 3-month T-bill is 3% and the yield on a 10-year T-bond is 6%. The market risk premium is 4.5%, and the return on an average stock in the market last year was 10.5%. What is the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM

Answers

Answer:

Cost of equity =  10.5%

Explanation:

The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.

Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)  

Rf-risk-free rate (long-term i.e 10 year treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market., Ke- Return on equity (cost of equity)

This model can be used to work out the cost of equity as follows:

Ke= Rf + β (Rm-Rf)

Rf- 6%, β= 1.0, Rm- 10.5, E(r)- ?

Ke = 6% + 1.0× (10.5 -6)% = 10.5%

Ke  = 10.5%

Cost of equity =  10.5%

Answer:

a) $94.88

b)  in 1 year, the intrinsic price of the stocks should increase to $109.11

Explanation:

6                              $11.45               $28.61568

growth rate up to year 5 = 20%

ROE growth rate starting year 6 = 15%

dividend growth rate starting year 6 = 15% x (1 - 40%) = 9%

cost of equity = 15%

horizon value at year 5 = $11.45 / (15% - 9%) = $190.83

current intrinsic value per stock = $190.83 / 1.15⁵ = $94.88

intrinsic price in 1 year = $190.83 / 1.15⁴ = $109.11

The estimate of DEQS’s intrinsic value per share is $94.88. Also, in 1 year, the intrinsic price of the stocks will increase to $109.11.

Based on the information given, the dividend and the earnings per share are given below:

year                     dividend             EPS

6                              $11.45               $28.616

Growth rate up to year 5 = 20%ROE growth rate starting year 6 = 15%Cost of equity = 15%

Therefore, the dividend growth rate starting year 6 will be:

= 15% x (1 - 40%)

= 15% × 60%

= 9%

Therefore, the horizon value at year 5 will be:

= $11.45 / (15% - 9%)

= $11.45 / 6%

= $190.83

Then, the current intrinsic value per stock will be:

= $190.83 / 1.15⁵

= $94.88

The intrinsic price in 1 year will be:

= $190.83 / 1.15⁴

MAD’s target capital structure is 60 percent debt and 40 percent equity. The yield to maturity on the company’s new debt will be 10 percent. MAD’s beta is 1.7, the risk free rate is 4% and the required market return is 12%. If the company’s tax rate is 30 percent, then which of the projects will be accepted?

Answers

Answer: D) Projects A and C

Explanation:

The projects to be taken should have a higher IRR than the company's Weighted Average Cost of Capital.

Cost of Equity

= Risk free rate + beta( market return - risk free rate)

= 4% + 1.7 (12% - 4%)

= 17.6%

After tax cost of debt

= Yield ( 1 - tax rate)

= 10% * ( 1 - 30%)

= 7%

WACC = (Weight of debt * after tax cost of debt) + (weight of equity * cost of equity)

= (0.6 * 7% ) + ( 0.4 * 17.6%)

= 4.2% + 7.04%

= 11.24%

Projects A and C both have IRR higher than the company's WACC and so should be accepted.

You find a zero coupon bond with a par value of $10,000 and 21 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.3 percent. Assume semiannual compounding periods.What is the price of the bond?

Answers

Answer:

Price of bond $4,092.49

Explanation:

Computation the price of the bond

Using this formula

Price of bond=Par value*1/(1+YTM/2)^(2*time period)

Where,

Par value=$10,000

1/(1+YTM/2)=1/(1+0.043/2)

(2*time period)=(2*21 years)

Let plug in the formula

Price of bond=$10,000*1/(1+0.043/2)^(2*21)

Price of bond=$10,000*1/(1.0215)^42

Price of bond=$10,000*(0.97895252)^42

Price of bond=$10,000*0.4092497467

Price of bond=$4,092.49

Therefore the price of the bond will be $4,092.49

Explanation:

Given that:

Indigo Corporation had the following tax information.

Year      Taxable Income         Tax Rate               Taxes Paid

2015        $294,000                  35%                       $102,900

2016         332,000                    30%                        99,600

2017          399,000                    30%                       119,700

In 2018, Indigo suffered a net operating loss of $487,000, which it elected to carry back. The 2018 enacted tax rate is 26%.

The objective is to prepare the Indigo's entry to record the effect of the loss carryback.

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = Taxable income(2018) × Tax rate(2018) + ( net operating loss - Taxable income(2018) )  × Tax rate(2018)

(332000 × 30%)+(476000-332000) × 30%

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable =  (332000 × 0.30)+(476000-332000) × 0.30

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = 99600 + 144000× 0.30

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = 99600 + 43200

The Income  Tax Refund Receivable = 142800

Therefore, Indigo Corporation ENtry can be prepared as follows:

The fixed cost of a production system is $20,000, and the variable cost per unit product is $17. The product has a revenue of $28 per unit. Calculate the breakeven quantity and determine the profit or loss amount when 1,500 units are produced. g

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $20,000

Unitary variable cost= $17

Selling price= $28 per unit.

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 20,000 / (28 - 17)

Break-even point in units= 1,818 units

Now, the profit for 1,500 units:

Loss= 1,500*11 - 20,000= -$3,500

Anna hired Juan to act as her sales agent in her auto dealership. However, Anna has instructed Juan not to enter into any sales contracts before she has had a chance to review the transaction. One day, Juan entered into a sales contract with William without informing Anna first. Has Juan created a contract with William that is binding on Anna in this situation?
