The direct labor budget of Yuvwell Corporation for the upcoming fiscal year contains the following details concerning budgeted direct labor-hours: 1st Quarter 2nd Quarter 3rd Quarter 4th Quarter Budgeted direct labor-hours 9,200 8,800 9,100 9,500 The company uses direct labor-hours as its overhead allocation base. The variable portion of its predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $3.50 per direct labor-hour and its total fixed manufacturing overhead is $60,000 per quarter. The only noncash item included in fixed manufacturing overhead is depreciation, which is $15,000 per quarter.
Required:
1. Prepare the company’s manufacturing overhead budget for the upcoming fiscal year.
2. Compute the company’s predetermined overhead rate (including both variable and fixed manufacturing overhead) for the upcoming fiscal year.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
1st Quarter 2nd Quarter 3rd Quarter 4th
Quarter Budgeted direct labor-hours 9,200 8,800 9,100 9,500
The variable portion of its predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is $3.50 per direct labor hour.
Total fixed manufacturing overhead= $60,000
First, we need to calculate the total variable and fixed overhead for the year:
Total variable overhead= (9,200 + 8,800 + 9,100 + 9,500)*3.5= $128,100
Total fixed overhead= 60,000*4= $240,000
Total budgeted overhead= $368,100
Now, the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (240,000 / 36,600) + 3.5
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $10.06 per direct labor hour
You plan to set up an endowment at your alma mater that will fund $207,000 of scholarships each year indefinitely. If the principal (the amount you donate) can be invested at 6.0 percent, compounded annually, how much do you need to donate to the university today, so that the first scholarships can be awarded beginning one year from now
Answer: $3,450,000
Explanation:
You need to donate the present value of the indefinite amount today so that the first scholarships can start to be awarded in the next year.
An indefinite amount is known as a perpetuity and the present value of a perpetuity is:
= Perpetuity / Interest rate to be compounded
= 207,000 / 6%
= $3,450,000

Someone offers to buy your car for five, equal annual payments, beginning 6 years from today. If you think that the present value of your car is $15,000.00 and the interest rate is 10%, what is the minimum annual payment that you would accept
Answer:
The minimum annual payment that you would accept is $7,010.
Explanation:
Using the future value formula, we have:
Future value of the car in 6 years = Present value * (100% + Interest rate)^number of years = $15,000 * (100% + 10%)^6 = $26,573.42
Using the present value of an ordinary annuity formula, we have:
Minimum annual payment = Future value of the car in 6 years / ((1 - (1 / (100% + Interest rate))^number of years to pay equal amount) / Interest rate) = $26,573.42 / ((1 - (1 / (100% + 10%))^5) / 10%) = $26,573.42 / 3.79078676940845 = $7,010
Therefore, the minimum annual payment that you would accept is $7,010.
A borrower obtains a one-year ARM which starts at 4.0% and has a margin of 3.0% and 2/6 caps. At the end of the first year, the index is 5.0%. What is the interest rate after the first adjustment
Answer:
The answer is "6".
Explanation:
In the given question the response is 6 because the new rate is the lower of the index + margin (in that case 5 + 3 = 8) whenever the interest rate changes as well as the current rate + cap (in that instance the value 4 + 2 = 6). Its rate of interest would also be 6 percent after the very first adjustment.
Baby boomers in America are aging. Describe how this might affect the marketing mix for the business selected.
Answer and Explanation:
Baby boomers are the generation born between 1946 and 1964, after World War 2. They are known as "Baby boomers" because there was very high birth rate in that time. Depending on the business selected, the price, place,promotion and product(4ps) will be considered in arriving at the most suitable goods/services to sell to baby boomers. To better understand this, we would have to consider the habits typical of baby boomers. For example, baby boomers value relationships and family, and are also strong 9 to 5'ers with strong work ethics. Now we did have to factor this into our 4ps to know what would sell to them.

Bank ABC has checkable deposits of $415 million and total reserves of $50 million. The required reserve ratio is 9 percent. The bank has excess reserves of Group of answer choices $14,550,000. $12,650,000. $365,000,000. There is not enough information provided to answer this question. $45,500,000.
Answer:
$12,650,000.
Explanation:
Reserves is the total amount of a bank's deposit that is not given out as loans
Reserves = Deposits - outstanding loans
Required reserves is the percentage of deposits required of banks to keep as reserves by the central bank
Required reserves = reserve requirement x deposits
0.09 x 415 million = 37.35 million
Excess reserves is the difference between reserves and required reserves
50 million - 37.35 million = 12.65 million
Skolits Corp. has a cost of equity of 11.5 percent and an aftertax cost of debt of 4.35 percent. The company's balance sheet lists long-term debt of $325,000 and equity of $585,000. The company's bonds sell for 96.1 percent of par and market-to-book ratio is 2.71 times. If the company's tax rate is 39 percent, what is the WACC
Answer:
10.32%
Explanation:
Given :
Long term debt = 325000
Percent of par = 96.1% = 0.96
Market to book ratio = 2.71
Equity = 585000
Cost of debt = 0.0435
Cost of equity = 0.115
Market value of debt:
Bond sell for percent of par × long-term debt
0.96 × $325000
= $312,000
Market value of equity:
Equity × Market-to-book ratio
$585,000 × 2.71
$1585350
Total market value:
Market value of debt + Market value of equity
$312000 + $1585350
= $1897350
Weight of debt:
Market value of debt / Total market value
$312000 ÷ $1897350
= 0.1644
Weight of equity:
= 1 - Weight of debt
= 1 - 0.1644
= 0.8356
WACC:
= (weight of equity × cost of equity) + (weight of debt × cost of debt )
= (0.8356 × 0.115)+(0.1644 × 0.0435)
= 0.1032
= 10.32%

As an efficiency ratio, the ratio measures the number of days Company Z's funds are held up in inventory before actual sales to customers.
Tax Savings. John and Cheryl just borrowed $30,000 on a home equity line of credit. The interest rate for the loan is 6.75% for the entire year, and they took out the loan on May 1. John and Cheryl are in the 28% tax bracket. What will be their tax savings for the first year ending December 31st
Answer:
$378
Explanation:
Interest expenses in current year = Amount of borrowing*Interest rate*8 month/12 months
Interest expenses in current year = $30,000 * 6.75% * 8/12
Interest expenses in current year = $1,350
Tax saving on interest expenses = Interest expenses * Tax rate
Tax saving on interest expenses = $1,350 * 28%
Tax saving on interest expenses = $378
So, their tax savings for the first year ending December 31 will be $378.

Answer:
The correct answer is C
Explanation:
Trade Agreements like NAFTA are mainly made in order to further the interests of the member countries. These trade agreements are partial dispositions that favor a more open economcy, and a freer movement of goods and services and of factors of production across sectors, and across countries.
Trade Agreements like NAFTA are complicated not only in structure but also in the developing phase, due to the conflicting interests of the signing countries. However, once they are made, they tend to have an overall positive economic effect according to most economists, even if some economic sectors may suffer disproportionately or even disappear entirely.
In 2011, Starbucks terminated a contract with Kraft Foods that allowed Kraft to sell bagged Starbucks coffee in grocery stores. The early termination resulted in litigation between Kraft and Starbucks. After an arbitrator found in Kraft's favor, Starbucks recorded a liability for $2.8 billion.
Required:
This behavior is typical of many companies today. What is your opinion on the reasons companies behave this way? Is it realistic? Why or why not?
Answer:
Starbucks and Kraft Foods
The reasons companies terminate contracts before their expiration include impossibility of performance, material breaches of contract terms, misrepresentation, fraud, lack of capacity, mutual mistake, and frustration.
The reason for Starbucks' termination of the contract was "multiple material breaches." These were not established by the arbitrator, who delivered judgment in Kraft's favor.
It is not always realistic to terminate a long-standing contract without abiding by the contract termination terms because the damages and accruing interests that can be awarded against the terminating company may be too huge.
Explanation:
The "multiple material breaches" that Starbucks alleged against Kraft included the allegation that "Kraft did not always meet minimum advertising budgets or keep Starbucks involved in major initiatives." According to Starbucks, these violations eroded its "brand equity."
It is sometimes suggested that the Fed should try to achieve price stability: that is, 0% inflation. If the velocity of money is constant, does zero-inflation mean the money supply should never change?

Explanation:
Bond X is noncallable and has 20 years to maturity, a 11% annual coupon, and a $1,000 par value. Your required return on Bond X is 12%; if you buy it, you plan to hold it for 5 years. You (and the market) have expectations that in 5 years, the yield to maturity on a 15-year bond with similar risk will be 7%. How much should you be willing to pay for Bond X today
Answer:
Present value = $1,170.68
Explanation:
The value of the bond in 5 years will be:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)¹⁵ = $362.45
PV of coupon payments = $110 x 9.1079 (PVIFA, 15 periods, 7%) = $1,001.87
Total value = $1,364.32
The current value of the bond is:
PV of face value = $1,364.32 / (1 + 12%)⁵ = $774.15
PV of coupon payments = $110 x 3.6048 (PVIFA, 5 periods, 12%) = $396.53
Present value = $1,170.68

Present value $ b. 6.6 percent compounded quarterly for eight years. Present value $ c. 4.3 percent compounded daily for four years. Present value $ d. 5.7 percent compounded continuously for three years. Present value $
Answer:
(a) 8.9 percent compounded monthly for five years is $2,503.32.
(b) 6.6 percent compounded quarterly for eight years is $2,310.09.
(c) 4.3 percent compounded daily for four years is $3,283.75.
(d) 5.7 percent compounded continuously for three years is $3,287.05
Explanation:
The Present Value is calculated by using:-
Present Value = Future Value / (1 + r)n
Here, r is the Interest Rate and n is the number of periods.
(a). 8.9 percent compounded monthly for five years:-
Future Value = $3,900
Interest Rate (r) = 0.741667% [8.90% / 12 Months])
Number period (n) = 60 Years [5 Years x 12]
Present Value = Future Value / (1 + r)n
[tex]= $3,900 / (1 + 0.00741667)60\\= $3,900 / 1.5579298\\= $2,503.32[/tex]
(b). 6.6 percent compounded quarterly for eight years:-
Future Value = $3,900
Interest Rate (r) = 1.65% [6.60% / 4]
Number period (n) = 32 Years [8 Years x 4]
Present Value = Future Value / (1 + r)n
[tex]= $3,900 / (1 + 0.0165)32\\= $3,900 / 1.688248\\= $2,310.09[/tex]
(c). 4.3 percent compounded daily for four years
Future Value = $3,900
Interest Rate (r) = 0.0117808% [4.30% / 365 Days]
Number period (n) = 1460 Years [4 Years x 365 Days]
Present Value = Future Value / (1 + r)n
[tex]= $3,900 / (1 + 0.000117808)1460\\\\= $3,900 / 1.187665\\\\= $3,283.75[/tex]
(d). 5.7 percent compounded continuously for three years
Future Value = $3,900
Interest Rate (r) = 0.0156164% [5.70% / 365 Days]
Number period (n) = 1095 Years [3 Years x 365 Days]
Present Value = Future Value / (1 + r)n
[tex]= $3,900 / (1 + 0.000156164)1095\\= $3,900 / 1.1864749\\= $3,287.05[/tex]

How does the mode of corroborating (e.g. strategic alliance, joint venture, licensing, outsourcing, collective research organization) influence the success of a collaboration?
Answer:
Organizations are always looking for new strategies to leverage their profits and market positioning. Corroboration arises then as a strategy in which two or more companies unite temporarily or not, through strategic alliance, licensing, joint venture, outsourcing, etc., with the common objective of expanding their market share and profits.
