Mississippi River Shipyards is considering the replacement of an 8-year-old riveting machine with a new one that will increase earnings before depreciation from $27,000 to $54,000 per year. The new machine will cost $82,500, and it will have an estimated life of 8 years and no salvage value. The new machine will be depreciated over its 5-year MACRS recovery period; so the applicable depreciation rates are 20%, 32%, 19%, 12%, 11%, and 6%. The applicable corporate tax rate is 40%, and the firm's WACC is 12%. The old machine has been fully depreciated and has no salvage value.

Required:
Should the old riveting machine be replaced by the new one?

Cycle counting ______.

a. is used to determine average cycle service level
b. is used to identify shelves needing repair
c. has a lower tolerance level for slower-moving items
d. follows a schedule such that the quantity of every SKU in inventory is counted at least once a year

Answers

Answer:

d. follows a schedule such that the quantity of every SKU in inventory is counted at least once a year

Explanation:

An inventory is a term used to describe a list of finished goods, goods still in the production line and raw materials that would be used for the manufacturing of more goods in a bid to meet the unending consumer demands.

Basically, an inventory can be classified into three (3) main categories;

I. Finished goods.

II. Work in progress (WIP).

III. Raw materials.

An inventory is recorded as a current asset on the balance sheet because it's primarily the most important source of revenue for a business entity.

Generally, it's important for a business to have a good idea of how many inventory it has at a specific period of time. In order to determine this, a process referred to as cycle counting can be used.

Cycle counting is a process that typically involves counting all stock keeping units (SKUs) for a specific period of time (in years), following a schedule that requires counting all items (every SKU in inventory) at least once a year.

Hence, a count of the stock keeping units (SKUs) simply means that you're physically counting how many units of each stock keeping unit (SKU) is carried at a particular point in time.

Furthermore, employees who are referred to as cycle counters are saddled with the responsibility of counting the stock keeping units (SKUs) and recording the information.

In cycle counting, the important items are counted more frequently by the cycle counters.

Park Co is considering an investment that requires immediate payment of $28.245 and provides expected cash inflows of 59,300 annually for four years. Assume Park Co requires a 7% return on its investments.

What is the net present value of this investment?

Answers

Answer:

The net present value of this investment is $3,256.06.

Explanation:

Note: There two errors in the figures provided in this question. They are they therefore fixed before answering this question as follows:

Park Co is considering an investment that requires immediate payment of $28,245 and provides expected cash inflows of $9,300 annually for four years. Assume Park Co requires a 7% return on its investments.

What is the net present value of this investment?

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

The present value (PV) of the annual expected cash inflows of $9,300 can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV of the annual expected cash inflows = Annual expected cash inflows * ((1 - (1 / (1 + rate of returns))^number of years) / rate of returns) = $9,300 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.07))^4) / 0.07) = $31,501.06

Net present value = PV of the annual expected cash inflows – Required immediate payment for the investment = $31,501.06 - $28,245 = $3,256.06

Therefore, the net present value of this investment is $3,256.06.

Western Electric has 28,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $71 and a rate of return of 13.40 percent. The firm has 6,900 shares of 7.00 percent preferred stock outstanding at a price of $91.00 per share. The preferred stock has a par value of $100. The outstanding debt has a total face value of $380,000 and currently sells for 107 percent of face. The yield to maturity on the debt is 7.84 percent. What is the firm's weighted average cost of capital if the tax rate is 39 percent

Answers

Answer: 11.05%

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital is calculated as follows:

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

Total equity = 28,000 * 71 = $1,988,000

Total preferred stock = 6,900 * 91 = $627,900

Total debt = 380,000 * 107 = $406,600

Total = 1,988,000 + 627,900 + 406,600

= $3,022,500

Cost of preferred stock = Dividend / Current price = 7 / 91 = 7.69%

After tax cost of debt = 7.84% * (1 - 39%) = 4.78%

WACC = (406,000 / 3,022,500 * 4.78%) + (1,988,000 / 3,022,500 * 13.40%) + (627,900 / 3,022,500 * 7.69%)

= 11.05%

Answers

Answer:

deficits are incurred during recessions and surpluses during inflations

Explanation:

Discretionary fiscal policies are deliberate steps taken by the government to stimulate the economy in order to cause the economy to move to full employment and price stability more quickly than it might otherwise.

Discretionary fiscal policies can either be expansionary or contractionary

Expansionary fiscal policy is when the government increases the money supply in the economy either by increasing spending or cutting taxes. These policies are carried out in a recession when the government wants to increase total spending

Contractionary fiscal policies is when the government reduces the money supply in the economy either by reducing spending or increasing taxes . These policies are carried out in periods of inflation when the government wants to reduce money supply in the economy

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Deferred gain occurs when the recipient of the proceeds or profits from a transaction do not collect it all upfront. Some of the gain is not collected now but deferred to some future time.

It is referred to as unrealised revenue and is represented on the balance sheet as a liability.

Cox Engineering performs cement core tests in its laboratory. The following standards have been set for each core test performed:Standard Hours or Quantity or Rate Standard PriceDirect materials 3 pounds $0.75 per poundDirect labor 0.4 hours $12 per hourVariable manufacturing overhead 0.4 hours $9 per hourDuring March, the laboratory performed 2,000 core tests. On March 1 no direct materials (sand) were on hand. Variable manufacturing overhead is assigned to core tests on the basis of standard direct labor-hours.The following events occurred during March:[1] 8,600 pounds of sand were purchased at a cost of $7,310.[2] 7,200 pounds of sand were used for core tests.[3] 840 actual direct labor-hours were worked at a cost of $8,610.[4] Actual variable manufacturing overhead incurred was $3,200.REQUIRED: (NOTE: You must show your computations)(a) The materials price variance for March is:(b) The materials quantity variance for March is:(c) The labor rate variance for March is:(d) The labor efficiency variance for March is:(e) The variable overhead efficiency variance for March is:

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

(a) The materials price variance for March is:

Actual cost of materials purchased = $7310

Less: Standard cost of actual quantity = 0.75 × $8600 = ($6450)

Direct material price variance = $860 Unfavorable

(b) The materials quantity variance for March is:

Standard cost of actual quantity = 0.75 × $7200 = $5400

Less: Standard cost of standard quantity = 3 × 2000 × $0.75 = $4500

Direct material quantity variance = $900 Unfavorable

(c) The labor rate variance for March is:

Actual cost of direct labor = $8610

Less: Standard cost of actual hours = 840 × $12 = $10080

Direct labor rate variance = $1470 favorable

(d) The labor efficiency variance for March is:

Standard cost of actual hours = 840 × $12 = $10080

Less: Standard cost of standard hours = 2000 × 0.4 × $0.12 = $9600

Direct labor efficiency variance = $480 Unfavorable

Tons of Product Percent of Conversion Added
Beginning Work in Process 230,000 60%
Goods started 570,000 100%
Goods completed 620,000 100
Ending Work in Process 180,000 70%

a. 758,000
b. 800,000
c. 620,000
d. 746,000

Answers

Answer:

Total equivalent units= 746,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning Work in Process 230,000 60%

Goods started 570,000 100%

Goods completed 620,000 100

Ending Work in Process 180,000 70%

The weighted average method blends the costs and units of the previous period with the costs and units of the current period.

Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production

Equivalent units of production:

Units completed in the period= 620,000

quivalent units in ending inventory WIP= (180,000*0.7)= 126,000

Total equivalent units= 746,000

Fiscal policy proponents see fiscal as a superior strategy for market corrections.
a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer: True

Explanation:

Fiscal policy refers to the government suing taxation and spending policies to influence the economy of a country. If the government wants to improve production, they reduce taxes and increase spending and if they want to reduce production, they increase taxes and reduce spending.

Suppose that in an​ economy, investment is​ $160 billion, saving is​ $140 billion, government expenditure on goods and services is​ $150 billion, exports are​ $200 billion, and imports are​ $250 billion. What is the amount of tax revenue and the government budget​ balance?

Answers

Answer:

Tax revenue is 120 billion dollars

The government budget balance is -30 billion dollars

The tax revenue for the given situation will be $120 billion; and the government budget balance will be -$30 billion in an economy.

What is a tax revenue?

The amount of total revenue generated by an organization or the government in the form of taxes is known as a total tax revenue for such government.

For the given condition, the tax revenue will be computed as,

[tex]\rm Tax\ Revenue\ = (Investments\ - Savings)\ - Expenditure\ + Imports\\\\\rm Tax\ Revenue\ = (160-140)-150+250\\\\\rm Tax\ Revenue\ = \$120[/tex]

Furthermore, the budget balance of the government will show a deficit of $30 billion, as the expenditure and imports of the government are lesser than the exports and revenues.

Hence, the tax revenue is aforementioned.

Product quality is ultimately reflected in the __________ and the price that customers are willing to pay. Group of answer choices market share development capability development time development cost

Answers

Answer: Market share

Explanation:

When a product is of high quality, more people will want to buy it because humans are drawn to things of superior quality. The quality item will therefore have a higher market share than its competitors.

The price will also reflect this as it would be higher than competing products to show that it is more sought after.

Take the iPhone for example. There are many more smartphones in the market but because of the quality of iPhones, they have such a high market share in the United States.

The Baldwin Company has just purchased $40,900,000 of plant and equipment that has an estimated useful life of 15 years. The expected salvage value at the end of 15 years is $4,090,000. What will the book value of this purchase (exclude all other plant and equipment) be after its third year of use

Answers

Answer:

$38,448,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What will the book value of this purchase

First step

Depreciation = (cost - salvage)/useful life

Depreciation= (40,900,000 - 4,090,000 )/15

Depreciation=36810000/15

Depreciation=2454000

Now let determine the

Book value=Cost -Depreciation

Book value=$40,900,000-$2,454,000

Book value=$38,448,000

Therefore the book value of this purchase is$38,448,000

A trial balance is a(n) (list/balance/chart)

account balances. Use one word for each blank.

Answers

Answer:

- List; credit

"A trial balance is a(n) list  of accounts and their balances at a point in time and is used to confirm that the sum of debit account balances equals the sum of  credit account balances."

Explanation:

'Trial Balance' is described as the 'statement of the balances of all nominal accounts in a double-entry ledger.' It is primarily made with the aim to examine the equality in the debit, as well as, credit balances. As per the accounting rules, the total value of the debits must be equal to the total of credit values. Any difference or discrepancy in the balance signals that an error has been made in the calculation or making the entries and certain transactions are missed out. Thus, the correct words would be 'list and credit.'

Molly sells bracelets to Jean's Place, a boutique store. Molly is scheduled to deliver 100 bracelets on July 1. On June 15, Jean, the owner of Jean's Place calls Molly and says "I might not be able to pay for your bracelets." Molly does not deliver the bracelets on July 1. Jean can probably recover from Molly for breach of contract. Group of answer choices True False

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

The contract is such that Molly agreed to bring bracelets if Jean would pay for said bracelets.

The terms of the contract therefore are that Jean would pay and Molly would deliver. Jean then calls Molly and says that they will be unable to pay which means that they are not going to be able to hold up their responsibilities in the contract.

Molly has the right to then cancel the contract because the other party will not be able to perform their obligations and face no repercussion for it.
