Piedmont Hotels is an all-equity company. Its stock has a beta of .94. The market risk premium is 7.5 percent and the risk-free rate is 3.3 percent. The company is considering a project that it considers riskier than its current operations so it wants to apply an adjustment of 2.5 percent to the project's discount rate. What should the firm set as the required rate of return for the project

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%

Explanation:

The risk-adjusted discount factor = cost of equity + the adjustment

Cost of equity can be calculated using the capital asset pricing model CAPM

Using the CAPM , the rate of return on equity can be determined as follows:

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)

E(r) =? , Rf- 3.3%, Rm- 7.5%, β- 0.94

Cost of equity = Rf + β (Rm -Rf)

Cost of equity = 3.3% + 0.94×(7.5-3.3)= 7.248

The risk-adjusted discount factor=  7.248 + 2.5= 9.748

Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%

Variable overhead efficiency variance $1,680  Favorable

Explanation:

Variable overhead efficiency variance:  Variable overhead efficiency variance aims to determine whether or not their exist savings or extra cost incurred on variable overhead as a result of workers being faster or slower that expected.

Since the variable overhead is charged using labour hours, any amount by which the actual labour hours differ from the standard allowable hours would result in a variance

The allowance account had a debit balance of $3,500 before adjustment. After adjusting for bad debt expense, what is the ending balance of the allowance account

Answers

Answer:

$49,690 credit balance

Explanation:

total credit sales = $590,000

past due up to 180 days = $110,000

past due for more than 180 days = $79,000

Crimson expects to not collect:

3% of credit sales not due yet = $590,000 x 3% = $17,70014% of credit sales past due up to 180 days = $110,000 x 14% = $15,400 21% of credit sales past due for more than 180 days = $79,000 x 21% = $16,590total = $49,690

Allowance for uncollectible amounts has $3,500 debit balance

the adjusting entry should be:

S Corporation makes 35,000 motors to be used in the production of its sewing machines. The average cost per motor at this level of activity is: Direct materials $ 9.40 Direct labor $ 8.40 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.40 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.35 An outside supplier recently began producing a comparable motor that could be used in the sewing machine. The price offered to S Corporation for this motor is $23.65. If S Corporation decides not to make the motors, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be: Multiple Choice $204,750 $85,750 $152,250 ($66,500)

Answers

Answer:

Advantage $85,750

Explanation:

The calculation of Financial advantage for the company of making rather than buying is shown below:-

Financial advantage for the company of making rather than buying = Relevant cost of buying - Cost of making

Financial advantage = Price offered × Used production - (Direct material + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead) × Used production

= $23.65 × 35,000 - ($9.40 + $8.40 + $3.40) × 35,000

= $827,750 - $21.20 × 35,000

= $827,750 - $742,000

Advantage = $85,750

Here, fixed costs are unavoidable, it is not a relevant cost

Stephanie wants to save for her daughter's education. Tuition costs $12,000 per year in today's dollars. Her daughter was born today and will go to school starting at age 18. She will go to school for 5 years. Stephanie can earn 12% on her investments and tuition inflation is 6%. How much must Stephanie save at the end of each year if she wants to make her last savings payment at the beginning of her daughter's first year of college

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $3,463.37

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Tuition costs $12,000 per year in today's dollars.

Number of years= 18

She will go to school for 5 years.

Stephanie can earn 12% on her investments and tuition inflation is 6%.

First, we need to calculate the cost of each year and the total cost.

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

Year 1= 12,000*1.06^18= 34,252.07

Year 2= 34,252.07*1.06= 36,307.12

Year 3= 38,485.55

Year 4= 40,794.68

Year 5= 43,242.36

Total= 193,081.78

Now, we can determine the annual deposit required:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (193,081.78*0.12) / [1.12^18)-1]

A= 3,463.37

Chiasso has a 25% income tax rate. What amount should C report as adjusted beginning retained earnings in its 2021 statement of retained earnings?

Answers

Answer:

$215,000

Explanation:

Retained Earning is an equity account and its balance is credit in nature. It is the accumulated balance of all the prior year's income / losses after paying all the dividend. This balance can be used for the dividend payment or reinvestment in the business.

Any prior years adjustment in the revenue and expense will be recorded in the retained earning because it carry the accumulated profit all the prior years.

The premium on insurance for only one year should be recorded, but premium of 3 years is expense in 2020, from which there is an advance premium of 2 years.

Adjustment Value = $30,000 x 2/3 x (1-0.25) = $15,000

The adjustment should be added in the retained earning balance as it was expensed earlier.

Adjusted retained earning balance = $200,000 + $15,000 = $215,000

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price per unit= $48

Unitary variable cost= $6

Total fixed costs= $16,000

A)

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= 16,000/ (48 - 6)

Break-even point in units= 381 units

B) Selling price= $49.95 a bedpoints

Break-even point in units= 16,000/ (49.95 - 6)

Break-even point in units= 364 units

C) Unitary variable cost= 6 - 3= 3

Break-even point in units= 16,000 / (48 - 3)

Break-even point in units= 356 units

D) Matresses= 1

Beds= 1

Proportions of sales:

Matreses= 0.5

Beds= 0.5

Selling price per matress= $9

Unitary variable cost= $5

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin ratio

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= (0.5*9 + 0.5*48) - (0.5*5 + 0.5*6)

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= $23

Break-even point (units)= 16,000/23

Break-even point (units)= 696 units

Current liabilities are obligations that are reasonably expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Assets Current Liabilities a. No No b. Yes Yes c. Yes No d. No Yes

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option C) Yes No

Explanation:

Current liabilities are obligations that are reasonably expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Assets and not current liabilities.

This is because, Current liabilities are short term liabilities due within a year. They include accounts payable, short term debt and overdraft. This means that payment can only be generated by current assets.

Current assets are also short term assets with a life span of on year. They include accounts receivable an cash.

Therefore, Yes, Current liabilities are obligations that are reasonably expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Assets.

And No, Current liabilities are obligations that are not expected to be paid from Existing Creation of Other Current Liabilities.

Bramble Company purchased equipment on January 1, 2018 at a total invoice cost of $347000; additional costs of $5000 for freight and $32000 for installation were incurred. The equipment has an estimated salvage value of $11000 and an estimated useful life of five years. The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2019 if the straight-line method of depreciation is used is:__________
a. $153600.
b. $136400.
c. $134400.
d. $149200.

Answers

Answer:

d. $149200.

Explanation:

Depreciation is a method used in expensing the cost of an asset.

Deprecation expense using the straight line method = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

Cost of asset = $347,000 + $5,000 + $32,000 = $384,000

( $384,000 - $11,000) / 5 = $74,600

Deprecation expense each year would be $74,600.

Accumulated depreciation in 2019 would be the sum of deprecation expense in 2018 and 2019

$74,600 × 2 = $149,200

Sales on account are $1,890,000. Cost of goods sold is $1,394,250. Required: 1. Calculate the following risk ratios for 2021:

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The risk ratios are calculated below:

1.  Account Receivable Turnover

= Net credit Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivable

= $1,890,000 ÷ (($98,000 + $102,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,890,000 ÷ $100,000

= 18.9 times

It shows the relation between the net credit sales and the average account receivable

2. Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold ÷ Average Inventory

= $1394250 ÷ (($105,000 + $90,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,394,250 ÷ $97,500

= 14.3 times

It shows the relation between the cost of goods sold and the average inventory

c.  Current Ratio = Current assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($242,000 + $98,000 + $105,000 + $5,000) ÷ ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000)

= $450,000 ÷ $125,000

= 3.6 times

It shows the relation between the current assets and the current liabilities

d.  Acid Test Ratio = Liquid assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($450,000 - $105,000) ÷ ($125,000 )

= $345,000 ÷ $125,000

= 2.76 times

It shows the relation between the liquid assets which do not involved prepaid assets, inventory, etc and the current liabilities

e. Debt to Equity = Debt ÷ Equity

= ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000 + $110,000) ÷  ($800,000  + $357,000 )

= $235,000 ÷ $1,157,000

= 0.203              

It shows the relation between the debt and equity

The risk ratios are determined as follows:

1.  Account Receivable Turnover

= Net credit Sales ÷ Average Accounts Receivable

= $1,890,000 ÷ (($98,000 + $102,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,890,000 ÷ $100,000

= 18.9 times

It represents the relationship between the net credit sales and the average account receivable.

2. Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold ÷ Average Inventory

= $1394250 ÷ (($105,000 + $90,000) ÷ 2)

= $1,394,250 ÷ $97,500

= 14.3 times

It represents the relationship between the cost of goods sold and the average inventory.

c.  Current Ratio = Current assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($242,000 + $98,000 + $105,000 + $5,000) ÷ ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000)  

= $450,000 ÷ $125,000  

= 3.6 times

It represents the relationship between the current assets and the current liabilities.

d.  Acid Test Ratio = Liquid assets ÷ Current Liabilities

= ($450,000 - $105,000) ÷ ($125,000 )

= $345,000 ÷ $125,000

= 2.76 times

It represents the relationship between the liquid assets in which it does include prepaid assets, inventory, etc and the current liabilities.

e. Debt to Equity = Debt ÷ Equity

= ($109,000 + $7,000 + $9,000 + $110,000) ÷  ($800,000  + $357,000 )

= $235,000 ÷ $1,157,000

= 0.203              

It represents the relationship between the debt and equity.

Answers

Answer:

February 1

Dr. Prepaid Insurance  $674,400

Cr. Cash                        $674,400

June 30

Dr. Insurance Expense $140,500

Cr. Prepaid Insurance   $140,500

Explanation:

Prepaid Expenses are those expense which have not been accrued yet but the payment against the future expense is made in advance.

On February 1 all the insurance is paid in advance so, it will be recorded in the prepaid insurance account.

On June 30 only 5 months are accrued in respect of Prepaid Insurance, So, the Insurance Expense of 5 months should be recorded and transferred from the prepaid insurance account.

Accrued Insurance Expense = $674,400 x 5/24 = $140,500

Garison Music Emporium carries a wide variety of musical instruments, sound reproduction equipment, recorded music, and sheet music. Garison uses two sales promotion techniques— warranties and premiums— to attract customers.

Question:
(a) Garison Music Emporium is preparing its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010. Determine the amounts that will be shown on the 2010 financial statements for the following.
(1) Warranty Expense -
(2) Estimated Liability from Warranties -
(3) Premium Expense -
(4) Inventory of Premium CD Players -
(5) Estimated Premium Claims Outstanding -

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

(a)

Given:

Warranty exp = 2% of musical instrument & sound equipment

Calculation:

Warranty exp = Warranty exp * 5,424,000

Warranty exp = 2% * 5,424,000

Warranty exp = 108,480

(b)

Warranty liability as on December 2017 = Opening Balance + Warranty Expense - Warranty Claim

Warranty liability as on December 2017 = 138,000 + 108,480 - 156,400

Warranty liability as on December 2017 = $90,080

(c)

The customer receives one coupon for each dollar spend 2,138,000 only 50% coupon will be redeemed.

Exp provision liability created = 50% * 2,138,000

Exp provision liability created = 1,069,000

Customer can exchange 200 coupon & $30 for MP3 player which is purchase for 42 that mean 200 coupon will be for 12 i.e. (42-30) value of coupon will be

12

200

= 0.06.

Value of 1,069,000 coupon = 1,069,000 * 0.06

Value of 1,069,000 coupon = 64,140

(d)

1,138,000 coupons had been redeemed during the year each MP3 player required 200 coupons.

Cost = 5,690 * 42

Cost = 238,980

Inventory Premium = Opening Balance + Purchases - Utilized Redeemed Coupon

Inventory Premium = 39,210 + (7,010 * 42) - 238,980

Inventory Premium = 39,210 + 294,420 - 238,980

Inventory Premium = $94,650

(e)

Premium liability balance = Opening Balance + Premium Exp Provision - Coupon Redeemed

Premium liability balance = 41,670 + 64,140 - (1,138,000 * 0.06)

Premium liability balance = 41,670 + 64,140 - 68,280

Premium liability balance = 37,530

19. Jay is a member of Klondike Coffee, LLC, a limited liability company. Jay is liable for Klondike's debts a. in proportion to the total number of members. b. to the extent of his investment in the firm. c. to the extent that the other members do not pay the debts. d. to the full extent.

Answers

Answer: . b. to the extent of his investment in the firm.

Explanation:

In a Limited Liability Company, the legal characteristics of the company is that the owners be liable for debts only up to the amount of capital that they invested. That is where the name comes from because the liability that the owners can take on are limited.

For instance, if in the above scenario Klondike went bankrupt and owed people $3,000. If all Jay had invested was $1,000, the maximum amount that can be taken from Jay is his $1,000 capital and nothing more.

Answers

Answer:

1. Theoretical and Practical capacity: Measures the denominator level in terms of what a plant can supply

2. Theoretical capacity: Is based on producing at full efficiency all the time.

3. Master-budget capacity utilization: Represents the expected level of capacity utilization for the next budget period.

4. Normal and Master-budget capacity: Measures the denominator level in terms of demand for the output of the plant.

5. Normal capacity utilization: Takes into account seasonal, cyclical, and trend factors.

6. Master-budget capacity utilization: Should be used for performance evaluation in the current year.

7. Theoretical capacity: Represents an ideal benchmark.

8. Theoretical and Practical capacity: Highlights the cost of capacity acquired but not used.

9. Master-budget capacity utilization: Should be used for long-term pricing purposes.

10. Normal and Master-budget capacity: Hides the cost of capacity acquired but not used.

11. Theoretical and Practical capacity: If used as the denominator-level concept, would avoid the restatement of unit costs when expected demand levels change.

Explanation:

Capacity is the maximum level of output that an organization can optimally sustain, to produce goods or provide service to meet it's customer demands.

The denominator-level capacity is a concept used under the capacity management. Denominator-level capacity concept is used to ascertain the capacity level that is considered for analyzing a production process or business operations. They are classified as follows;

i. Normal capacity utilization is based on the level of capacity utilization which satisfy the average customer demand periodically such as trend, cyclical and seasonal factors.

ii. Master-budget capacity utilization is based on the level of capacity expected for the current budget period, typically a year.

iii. Theoretical capacity is the denominator-level concept based on producing continuously at full efficiency.

iv. Practical Capacity is based on the level of capacity that involves unavoidable operating interruptions, such as scheduled equipment maintenance or repair time, holiday shutdowns etc.

Method A assumes simple interest over final fractional periods, while Method B assumes simple discount over final fractional periods. The annual effective rate of interest is 20%. Find the ratio of the present value of a payment to be made in 1.5 years computed under method A to that computed under Method B.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "1.1"

Explanation:

In the case of a single Interest, the principal value is determined as follows:

[tex]\ I = Prt \\\ A = P + I\\A = P(1+rt) \\\\A = amount \\P= principle\\r = rate\\t= time[/tex]

In case of discount:

[tex]D = Mrt \\P = M - D \\P = M(1-rt)\\\\Where, D= discount \\M =\ Maturity \ value \\[/tex]

Let income amount = 100, time = 1.5 years, and rate =20 %.

Formula:

A = P(1+rt)  

A =P+I

by putting vale in the above formula we get the value that is = 76.92, thus method A will give 76.92  value.

If we calculate discount then the formula is:

P = M(1-rt)

M = 100  rate and time is same as above.

[tex]P = 100(1-0.2 \times 1.5) \\P = 100 \times \frac{70}{100} \\P = 70[/tex]

Thus Method B will give the value that is 70  

calculating ratio value:

[tex]ratio = \frac{\ method\ A \ value} {\ method \ B \ value}\\\\\Rightarrow ratio = \frac{76.92}{70}\\\\\Rightarrow ratio = \frac{7692}{7000}\\\\\Rightarrow ratio = 1.098 \ \ \ \ or \ \ \ \ 1.[/tex]

Mcfarlain Corporation is presently making part U98 that is used in one of its products. A total of 18,000 units of this part are produced and used every year. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the part at this level of activity: Per Unit Direct materials $ 4.70 Direct labor $ 4.20 Variable overhead $ 1.70 Supervisor's salary $ 5.10 Depreciation of special equipment $ 5.10 Allocated general overhead $ 5.50 An outside supplier has offered to produce and sell the part to the company for $22.80 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company, none of which would be avoided if the part were purchased instead of produced internally. In addition to the facts given above, assume that the space used to produce part U98 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $73,100 per year for that product. What would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying part U98 from the outside supplier and using the freed space to make more of the other product

Answers

Answer:

company's net profit will decrease by $54,700

Explanation:

the avoidable costs of producing part U98 are:

direct materials = $4.70direct labor = $4.20variable overhead = $1.70supervisor's salary = $5.10total cost per unit = $15.70

avoidable cost of producing 18,000 units = 18,000 x $15.70 = $282,600

depreciation of special equipment and fixed overhead costs are not avoidable.

revenue generated by using the spare plant area = $73,100

total relevant savings and additional revenue = $355,700

if you purchase the product from a vendor, total costs will be:

purchase price = 18,000 x $22.80 = $410,400

Since the total cost of purchasing the parts is higher than the relevant savings and additional revenue, then the company's net profit will decrease by = $410,400 - $355,700 = $54,700

The Red Wolf Society, a nongovernmental not-for-profit organization, receives numerous contributed hours from volunteers during its busy season. Tom, a clerk at the local government utility’s office, volunteered ten hours per week for 8 weeks transferring wolf food from the port to the wolf shelter. His rate of pay at the utility office is $20 per hour, and the prevailing wage rate for laborers is $15 per hour. What amount of contribution revenue should Red Wolf Society record for this service? Multiple Choice $1,200 $400 $1,600 $0

Answers

Answer:

$1,600

Explanation:

Revenue is recognized as and when the control of a good or service is transferred to the customer.

Total Hours = 10 hours × 8 weeks

                    = 80 hours

Use the rate of pay at the utility office to determine the contribution revenue for Red Wolf Society

Revenue = 80 hours × $20 per hour

Answers

Answer:

-$18,207

Explanation:

Net present value is the Net value all cash inflows and outflows in present value term. All the cash flows are discounted using a required rate of return.

Net Present Value = Initial Investment + Present value of reduced Labor and other costs

Net Present value = -$180,000 + $46,000( 1 - ( 1 + 13% )^-5 / 13% )

Net Present value = -$180,000 +  161,793

Morrish Inc. bases its manufacturing overhead budget on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,100 direct labor-hours will be required in January. The variable overhead rate is $1.80 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $102,950 per month, which includes depreciation of $19,880. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows. The January cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be:

Answers

Answer:

$95,850

Explanation:

To calculate cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead:

Direct labor cost + Fixed manufacturing overhead

where,

direct labor cost = Direct labor hours × per labor rate

= $7,100 x $1.8 =

$12,780

Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead - depreciation

102,950 - 19880 =

Direct labor cost + Fixed manufacturing overhead =

$83,070 + $12,780

= $95,850

The January cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be $95,850

Answer:

The January cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be $95,850

Explanation:

In order to calculate the the January cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget we would have to use the following formula:

Total cash disbursement for overhead in January =Variable overhead+Cash portion of fixed manufacturing overhead

Variable overhead = 7,100 direct labor-hours × $1.80 = $12,780

Cash portion of fixed manufacturing overhead = $102,950 - $19,880 = $83,070

Therefore, Total cash disbursement for overhead in January = $12,780 + $83,070

Total cash disbursement for overhead in January =$95,850

The January cash disbursements for manufacturing overhead on the manufacturing overhead budget should be $95,850

A consumer values a house at $525,000 and a producer values the same house at $485,000.

Answers

Answer:

c. ​$15,000 worth of buyer surplus and $25,000 of seller surplus 

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the different between the value a consumer places on a product and the price of the product.

Consumer surplus = value of the product - price of the product

$525,000 - $510,000 = $15,000

Producer surplus is the difference between the price and the least price the seller is willing to sell his product.

Producer surplus = price - least price the seller is willing to sell his product

$510,000 - $485,000 = $25,000
