Planet Company had operating income of $12,000, average operating assets of $125,000, and sales of $45,000. What is Planet's return on investment (ROI)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

36.36%

Explanation:

Return on investment is given as;

Profit / Cost of goods sold × 100%

Given that profit is $12,000 and sales is $45,000 ;

Cost of goods sold

= $45,000 - $12,000

= $33,000

Therefore, return on investment is

= 12,000 / 33,000 × 100%

= 36.36%

Lead time for one of your​ fastest-moving products is 24 days. Demand during this period averages 110 units per day. ​a) What would be an appropriate reorder​ point? nothing units ​(enter your response as a whole​ number). ​b) How does your answer change if demand during lead time​ doubles? nothing units ​(enter your response as a whole​ number). ​c) How does your answer change if demand during lead time drops in​ half? nothing units ​(enter your response as a whole​ number).

Answers

Answer:

a.) reorder point = 2,640 units

b.) reorder point = 5,280 units (reorder point doubles)

c.) reorder point = 1,320 units (reorder point drops in half)

Explanation:

Reorder point is the inventory level (point) at which action is taken (order placed) to replenish the stocked item. It is calculated as follows:

Reorder point = (Lead time × average daily sales) + safety stock

Lead time = 24 days

average daily sales = 110 units

safety stock = 0 (not given)

a.) reorder point = (Lead time × average daily sales) + safety stock

reorder point = (24 × 110) + 0 = 2,640 units

b.) if demand during lead time doubles:

lead time = 24 days

average daily sales = (110 × 2) = 220

∴ reorder point = 220 × 24 = 5,280 units

Therefore the reorder point doubles

c.) if demand during lead time drops in half:

lead time = 24 days

average daily demand = (110 ÷ 2) = 55 units

∴ reorder point = 24 × 55 = 1,320 units

Therefore the reorder point drops in half.

the fair value of Blossom is estimated to be $820,800. The carrying value of Blossom’s net identifiable assets, including the goodwill, at year-end is $855,000. Prepare Cullumber’s journal entry, if necessary, to record impairment of goodwill.

Answers

Answer:

Cullumber Company

Journal Entry:

Debit Loss on Goodwill Impairment $34,200

Credit Goodwill $34,200

To record the loss on goodwill impairment.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculation:

Fair value = $820,800

Carrying value of net identifiable assets, including goodwill = $855,000

Goodwill impairment = $34,200 ($855,000 - $820,800)

b) Cullumber, which acquired Blossom is expected to check for the impairment of goodwill yearly.  The impairment occurs when the carrying value of the net identifiable assets of Blossom is more than the fair value of Blossom.  Generally Accepted Accounting Standards require the annual review of the fair value of goodwill to check for its impairment.  By the above entry, the goodwill will be reduced by $34,200 and a loss debited in Cullumber's accounts.

The risk-free rate of return is 3.2 percent and the market risk premium is 4.6 percent. What is the expected rate of return on a stock with a beta of 2.12

Answers

Answer:

12.95%

Explanation:

The risk free rate of return is 3.2%

The market risk premium is 4.6%

The beta is 2.12

Therefore, the expected rate of return on a stock can be calculated as follows

= 3.2% + (2.12×4.6%)

= 3.2% + 9.752

= 12.95%

Hence the expected rate of return on a stock is 12.95%

3. There a number of market entry strategies that businesses use in entering into markets outside their countries. a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses. b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?

Answers

Answer:

a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses.

Franchising consists in the licensing of aspects of production and intellectual property to a another party: the franchise.

A Joint Venture is a business union between two or more parties, in which they split profit as well as costs and responsabilities.

b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?

Franchising can be a quicker way to expand into foreign markets. The flexibility of the method, and the lower capital requirements are the reason why. This can be seen in the success that American fast-food brands have had using this method to expand in global markets.

A Joint-Venture can be more difficult to use for market expansion, however, it can be more profitable, because the profit will not be split among as many parties as in franchising, and more importantly, the firm maintains a higher control of the operation.

Activity-Based Costing: Selling and Administrative Expenses Jungle Junior Company manufactures and sells outdoor play equipment. Jungle Junior uses activity-based costing to determine the cost of the sales order processing and the customer return activity. The sales order processing activity has an activity rate of $20 per sales order, and the customer return activity has an activity rate of $100 per return. Jungle Junior sold 2,500 swing sets, which consisted of 750 orders and 80 returns.

Required:
a. Determine the total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets.
b. Determine the per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer: 1}ToTAL Activity cost =$23,000

2a)  Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale=$6.00

2b)customer return activity per unit sale=$3.20

Explanation:

a. total sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets

Sales order Processing Activity =Number of orders x rate per sales order

                                       =750 x 20 =  $15,000

customer return activity  = Number of returns x rate per return

                                         = 80 x 100= $8,000

ToTAL Activity cost = Sales order Processing Activity +customer return activity= $15,000 + $8000 = $23,000

b)per-unit sales order processing and customer return activity cost for swing sets

Cost of Sale order processing = $15,000

Number of swing set sold = 2,500

Therefore Sales order Processing Activity per unit sale =  Cost of Sale order processing/ Number of swing set sold = $15,000/ 2,500= $6.00

customer return activity cost  = $8,000

Number of swing set sold = 2,500

Therefore customer return activity per unit sale=  customer return activity cost / Number of swing set sold = $8,000/ 2,500= $3.20

ToTAL Activity cost  per unit sale = Sales order Processing Activity  cost per unit +customer return activity cost per unit = $6.00 +  $3.20 = $9.20

Less Fixed Costs                                              ( $315,000)

Operating Profit                                                 $420,000

Explanation:

Break-even point (sales units ) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit

                                                   = $315,000 ÷ ($350 - $245)

                                                   = 3,000

Break-even point (sales dollars) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

                                                     = $315,000 ÷ ($105/$350)

Two investment advisors are comparing performance. Advisor A averaged a 20% return with a portfolio beta of 1.5 and Advisor B averaged a 15% return with a portfolio beta of 1.2. If the T-bill rate was 5% and the market return during the period was 13%, which advisor was the better stock picker?

Answers

Answer:

Advisor A

Explanation:

t bill rate = 0.05

market rate = 0.13

the beta of the market is always 1

the rate of return= 0.05 + (0.13 - 0.05) x 1

= 0.13

which is 13%

this is for advisor A.

with a return of 20% and 1.5 beta

0.05 + ( 0.20 - 0.05) x 1.5

= 27.5% for advisor b

when the return is 15% and beta is 1.2

0.05 + (0.15 - 0.05) x 1.2

= 17%

Therefore advisor a is better

Gabriel, Harris and Ida are members of Jeweled Watches, LLC. What are their options with respect to the management of their firm?

Answers

Answer:

They could be a Member-managed Limited Liability Company or a Manager-managed Limited Liability Company.

Explanation:

A Limited Liability Company is usually run by two or more partners. In managing this type of company, the members might choose to manage the company themselves. This is known as a member-managed Limited Liability Company. In such cases, if any member makes a decision in behalf of the business, with his signature appended to it, such a decision is considered legally binding on all other members of the company. Every member also has a say in the company's decision-making.

If they choose to be a manager-managed Limited Liability Company, they can appoint one or more non-members to manage the company for them. They do not interfere with how the manager chooses to run the company. They can still make important decisions but this is quite limited. However, they can choose to remove the manager/managers as they will.

Company ABC is required to pay their customers $20,000 after 3 years. Based on an annual effective interest rate of 4%, Andy, the company’s actuary, uses full immunization strategy to construct a portfolio of assets using a 2-year zero-coupon bond and a 4-year zero-coupon bond. Calculate the par amount for the 2-year zero-coupon bond assuming full immunization is met.

Answers

Answer:

Par amount = $9,615.39

Explanation:

The condition that must hold in order to meet full immunization are as follows:

Condition 1: PV(assets) = PV(liabilities)

Condition 2: MD(assets) = MD(liabilities) or P'assets = P'liabilities

Condition 3: There is one asset cash inflow before the liability cash outflow, and there is also one asset cash inflow after the liability cash outflow.

Where PV denotes Present Value and MD denotes Macaulay Duration.

PV(liabilities) = Amount required to pay / (1 + i)^n ............ (1)

Where;

Amount required to pay = $20,000

i = interest rate = 4%

n = number of years after = 3 years

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

PV(liabilities) = $20,000 / (1 + 4%)^3 = 17,779.93

Let;

A = Weight of two-year-zero-coupon bond in the portfolio

n = Macaulay Duration of n-year-zero-coupon bond

Therefore, we can construct a portfolio of assets using a 2-year zero-coupon bond and a 4-year zero-coupon bond as follows:

A(2) + (1 – A)(4) = 3

2A + 4 – 4A = 3

2A – 4A = 3 – 4

-2A = - 1

A = -1/-2

A = 0.5

We can now calculate the par amount as follows:

Par amount = PV(liabilities) * A * (1 + i)^t .............. (2)

Where t = 2 as the duration of the bond

Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:

Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * (1 + 4%)^2

Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * 1.04^2

Par amount = 17,779.93 * 0.5 * 1.0816

Par amount = $9,615.39

Therefore, the par amount for the 2-year zero-coupon bond assuming full immunization is met is $9,615.39.

On July 1, 20X1, James and Short formed a partnership. James contributed cash. Short, previously a sole proprietor, contributed property other than cash, including realty subject to a mortgage, which the partnership assumed. Short’s capital account on July 1, 20X1, should be recorded at

Answers

Answer:

James and Short LLC

Short's capital account on July 1, 20X1 should be recorded at the fair value of contributed property minus the mortgage liability, which the partnership assumed.

Explanation:

The fair value of contributed property is the current market value of the contributed property by Short.  It is the market value that will determine how the contributed property can be valued.  The market value assumes that the contributed property is being sold in pieces and not as a whole.  This is why the value is considered a fair basis for recognizing the capital contribution of Short into the partnership.

The before-trade domestic price of tomatoes in the United States is $500 per ton. The world price of tomatoes is $400 per ton. The U.S. is a price-taker in the tomatoes market.
If trade in tomatoes is allowed, the United States:______
a) will experience increases in both consumer surplus and producer surplus.
b) may become either an importer or an exporter of tomatoes, but this cannot be determined.
c) will become an exporter of tomatoes.
d) will become an importer of tomatoes.

Answers

Answer:

d) will become an importer of tomatoes.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus would increase because the price at which they buy tomatoes would reduce while producer surplus would reduce because the price of tomatoes would reduce as a result of international trade.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.Because the price of tomatoes in the US is greater than the price of tomatoes in the world, when the US begins international trade, it would import tomatoes because it is inefficient in the production of tomatoes.  

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product

An investment offers a total return of 12.0 percent over the coming year. Janice Yellen thinks the total real return on this investment will be only 6.0 percent. What does Janice believe the inflation rate will be over the next year?

Answers

Answer:

inflation rate= 0.06= 6%

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Interest rate= 12%

Real rate of return= 6%

The inflation rate is counterproductive to the interest rate. The inflation rate reduces the purchasing price, therefore it decreases the interest rate effect on nominal money.

Real interest rate= interest rate - inflation rate

0.06 = 0.12 - inflation rate

inflation rate= 0.12 - 0.06

inflation rate= 0.06= 6%

d. Business process reengineering, best practice standardization programs, and six sigma
e. adoption of best practices, TQM, and business process reengineering

Answers

Answer:

e. adoption of best practices, TQM, and business process reengineering

Explanation:

To promote operational excellence in the execution of value chain activities, the most appropriate tools to be implemented in an organization are the adoption of best practices, TQM and business process reengineering.

Total quality management refers to the continuous improvement of all operational processes, in order to reduce costs, failures, and waste, leading to the implementation, control and review of all organizational processes, including the adoption of advanced technology, adequate training for employees, etc.

Business process reengineering would also help the organization reevaluate its value chain and implement improvements that would increase the performance and functionality of each essential step in the value chain.

Therefore, these integrated tools would ensure continuous optimization at all stages of the value chain, which would mean for the company the effectiveness of the channels and activities for the company to produce the right product, in the right quantity, in the right place and at the right time.

1. Compute return on investment.
2. Compute profit margin.
3. Compute investment turnover for the year.A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. Return on investment is

= Operating Income ÷ Average invested Assets

here, average invested assets is

= (Invested assets, beginning + Invested assets, ending) ÷ 2

For Beverage Division

= $349 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)

= $349 ÷ $2,628

= 13.28%

For Cheese Division

= $634 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)

= $634 ÷ $4,428

= 14.32%

2. Profit margin = (Operating income ÷ sales) × 100

For Beverage Division

= ($349 ÷ $2,681) × 100

= 13.02%

For Cheese Division

= ($634 ÷ $3,925) × 100

= 16.15%

3. Investment turnover = Sales ÷ Average Operating Assets

For Beverage Division

= $2,681 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)

= $2,681 ÷ $2,628

= 1.02 times

For Cheese Division, it would be

= $3,925 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)

= $3,925 ÷ $4,428

= 0.89 times

What is the present value of a perpetuity that pays you annual, end-of-year payments of $950? Use a nominal rate (monthly compounding) of 7.50%.

Answers

Answer:

The present value of the perpetuity is $12,242.27.

Explanation:

A perpetuity is an annuity that provide cash flow for an infinite period .Examples are Non -redeemable Preference Share.

Present Value (perpetuity) = Payments ÷ Required Rate

But, first change the 7.50 % nominal rate to Annual Effective Rate to match the period of Cash flow.

Effective Rate = (1 + r / m)^m - 1

                       = ( 1 + 0.0750 / 12) ^12 -1

                       = 7.76%

Therefore, Present Value (perpetuity) = $950 ÷  7.76%

                                                              = $12,242.27

At the certain interest rate, present value (PV) is the current value of a future sum of money or stream of cash flows.

The discount rate determines the present value of the cash flows, and the higher the discount rate, the lower the current value of future cash flows.

The present value of the perpetuity is $12,242.27.

A perpetuity is an annuity that payments out during an indefinite period of time. Non-redeemable Preference Share is an example.

Present Value (perpetuity) = [tex]\frac{\text{Payments}}{\text{Required Rate}}[/tex]

However, to match the Working capital period, change a 7.50 percent nominal rate to a Yearly Effective Tax rate.

[tex]\text{Effective Rate} = (1 + \frac{r}{m} )^m - 1= [1 + \frac{0.0750}{12}]^{12} -1= 7.76\%[/tex]

Therefore, Present Value (perpetuity)= [tex]\frac{\$950}{7.76\%} = $12,242.27[/tex]

What is the effective annual inerest rate?
A. 9%
B. 10%
C. 11%
D. 20%

Answers

Answer:

B. 10%

Explanation:

The computation of the effective annual interest rate is shown below:-

Effective annual interest rate = Lease payment third effective interest ÷ Lease payment second balance × 100

= $2,126 ÷ $21,260 × 100

= 10%

Therefore for computing the effective annual interest rate we simply applied the above formula.

Hence the correct option is B.

Sam has contracted with Dave to purchase Dave's racing bike, with payment and delivery of the bicycle to be made 10 days after the contract was made. Three days later Sam hears that Dave is going to sell the bike to Gene in three days at a higher price. If Sam really wants the bike, what should he do? Multiple Choice Immediately seek injunctive relief. Immediately sue for specific performance. Immediately sue for compensatory damages. Immediately sue for consequential damages.

Answers

Answer: Immediately seek injunctive relief.

Explanation:

An injunctive relief is an order by the court stopping an action from taking place. From the question, we are told that Sam has contracted with Dave to buy Dave's racing bike, with payment and delivery of the bicycle to be made 10 days after the contract was made.

We are further told that three days later Sam hears that Dave is going to sell the bike to Gene in three days at a higher price. If Sam really wants the bike, he should seek injunctive relief. By doing so, the court will stop Dave from selling the bike to Gene.

Answers

Answer: annual rate of return

Explanation:

The simple rate of return is also called the unadjusted rate of return or the accounting rate of return.

The simple rate of return is calculated when the incremental net operating income for the year is taken and then divided by the initial investment.

It should be noted that it's not called the annual rate of return.

If the price that determined where marginal revenue equaled marginal cost were below the bottom of the average variable cost curve, then the profit-maximizing, monopolistically competitive firm would

Answers

Answer: c. shut down because it would cost more to produce and sell output than it would to shut down and lose all fixed costs.

Explanation:

The profit maximizing, monopolistically competitive firm maximises profit at the point where marginal revenue equals marginal costs.

If this point is below Average variable costs then that means that the company is not making enough to cover its variable costs. Should this be the case then the company should shutdown operations because variable costs are only there when the company is producing. If they shutdown then they will no longer incur them which would be the cheaper option.

They would take losses on the fixed costs but these have already been incurred so it would be better to lose the fixed costs than continue to make losses on variable costs.

Answers

Answer:

If output rises to 57,000 units, what will the percentage change in operating cash flow be?

24.23%

What is the operating cash flow at 46,000 units?

$45,613.84

The degree of operating leverage (at 46,000 units)?

4.84

Explanation:

degree of operating leverage = [quantity x (price - variable costs)] / {[quantity x (price - variable costs)] - fixed costs}

degree of operating leverage x {[quantity x (price - variable costs)] - fixed costs} = [quantity x (price - variable costs)]

3.21 x {[53000 x (contribution margin)] - fixed costs} = [53000 x (contribution margin)]

(3.21 x 53000 x contribution margin) - (3.21 x 175000) = 53000 x contribution margin

let C = contribution margin

170130C - 561750 = 53000C

117130C = 561750

C = 561750 / 117130 = 4.795953

operating cash flow (at 53,000) = (53,000 x $4.795953) - $175,000 = $79,185.52

operating cash flow (at 57,000) = (57,000 x $4.795953) - $175,000 = $98,369.32

% change = ($98,369.32 - $79,185.52) / $79,185.52 = 24.23%

operating cash flow (at 46,000) = (46,000 x $4.795953) - $175,000 = $45,613.84

% change in operating cash flows = ($45,613.84 - $79,185.52) / $79,185.52 = -43.4%

% change in sales = (46,000 - 53,000) / 53,000 = -13.21

degree of operating leverage = $220,613.84 / $45,613.74 = 4.84

The Whistling Straits Corporation needs to raise $74 million to finance its expansion into new markets. The company will sell new shares of equity via a general cash offering to raise the needed funds. The offer price is $45 per share and the company's underwriters charge a spread of 6 percent. If the SEC filing fee and associated administrative expenses of the offering are $825,000, how many shares need to be sold? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)

Answers

Answer:

1,768,913 new stocks

Explanation:

the company needs to raise amount needed to finance expansion plus SEC's filing and administrative fees = $74,000,000 + $825,000 = $74,825,000

net amount received per stock issued = stock price x (1 - underwriting fee) = $45 x (1 - 6%) = $42.30 per stock

the company needs to issue = $74,825,000 / $42.30 per stock = 1,768,912.53 = 1,768,913 new stocks

HighLife Corporation has the following information: Average demand = 30 units per day Average lead time = 40 days Item unit cost = $45 for orders of less than 400 units Item unit cost = $40 for orders of 400 units or more Ordering cost = $50 Inventory carrying cost = 15 percent The business year is 300 days. Standard deviation of demand during lead time = 90 Desired service level = 95 percent What is the EOQ if HighLife pays $45/unit? Due to possible differences in rounding, choose the closest answer.\

Answers

Answer:

365.15 units

Explanation:

The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex]

where,

Annual demand is

= 30 units × 300 days

= 90,000 units

ordering cost is $50

Carrying cost is

= $45 × 15%

= $6.75

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the economic order quantity is

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{90,000}\times \text{\$50}}{\text{\$6.75}}}[/tex]

= 365.15 units

We simply applied the above formula so that the EOQ could come

The smartest thing a firm involved in an oligopoly market could do is to cut their prices and capture more of the market share from their competitors.

a) We learned in class that the best move would be to raise prices.

b) We also learned that cutting prices on an elastic demand curve will be a smart way of getting more revenues.

c) Cutting prices is no gaurantee of success. Indeed if the firm does capture more market share and customers, then their costs will go up and it will be harder for them because they will have lower profit margins - if they can earn any profit at all.

d) Both A and C are correct.

Answers

Answer:

Correct Answer:

c) Cutting prices is no gaurantee of success. Indeed if the firm does capture more market share and customers, then their costs will go up and it will be harder for them because they will have lower profit margins - if they can earn any profit at all.

Explanation:

An oligopoly market is a market form wherein a market or industry is dominated by a small group of large sellers. A pure monopoly maximizes profits by producing that quantity where marginal revenue = marginal cost. however, it is much more difficult for an oligopoly to determine at what output it can maximize its profit.

If a bank that faces a 10% reserve ratio received a deposit of $50,000 and makes a loan to a customer for $5,000, what is the consequence if the bank then deposits the rest of the funds at the Federal Reserve?

Answers

Answer:

Excess reserve increases by $40,000

Required reserve increases by $5,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the reserve, we need to multiply the Deposit received by a required reserve ratio.

DATA

Reserve ratio = 10%

Deposit received = $50,000

Loan to customer = $5,000

Solution

Reserve =  Deposit x Required reserve ratio

Reserve = $50,000 x 10%

Reserve = $5,000

After providing a $5,000 loan to the customer and keeping $5,000 as a reserve remaining $40,000 would be deposited in the Federal Reserve.
