Explanation:
Ida Sidha Karya Company is a family-owned company located on the island of Bali in Indonesia. The company produces a handcrafted Balinese musical instrument called a gamelan that is similar to a xylophone. The gamelans are sold for $875. Selected data for the company’s operations last year follow: Units in beginning inventory 0 Units produced 14,000 Units sold 12,000 Units in ending inventory 2,000 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 200 Direct labor $ 420 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 64 Variable selling and administrative $ 23 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 860,000 Fixed selling and administrative $ 410,000 Required: 1. Assume that the company uses absorption costing. Compute the unit product cost for one gamelan
Answer:
Unitary product cost= $745.43
Explanation:
The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
Direct materials $200
Direct labor $420
Variable manufacturing overhead $ 64
Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 860,000
First, we need to calculate the unitary fixed overhead:
Unitary fixed overhead= 860,000 / 14,000= $61.43
Now, the unitary product cost:
Unitary product cost= 200 + 420 + 64 + 61.43
Unitary product cost= $745.43
Curtain Co. paid dividends of $10,000, $12,500, and $14,000 during Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3, respectively. The company had 2,100 shares of 5.5%, $100 par value preferred stock outstanding that paid a cumulative dividend. What is the total amount of dividends paid to common shareholders during Year 3?
A. $4800.B. $1000.C. $2600.D. $800.
Answer:
Total amound paid to shareholder in 3rd year = $1850
Explanation:
Below is the calculation:
Total dividend paid = 1st year divident + 2nd year divident + 3rd year dividend
Total dividend paid = $10000 + 12500 + 14000
Total dividend paid = $36500
Total preferred dividend = (2100 x 100) x 5.5% x 3
Total preferred dividend = $34650
Total amount of dividend paid to shareholder during 3rd year = 36500 - 34650 = $1850
Total amound paid to shareholder in 3rd year = $1850

Mean time between arrivals= 1/12
Mean time between arrivals= 0.0833 hours or 5 minutes
Therefore the Mean time between arrivals will be 0.0833 hours or 5 minutes
What is the weighted average cost of capital if a business has a cost of equity of 11%, a yield on debt of 6%, a tax rate of 30%, 100 million market value of debt, and 250 million market value of equity
Answer:
9.028 %
Explanation:
weighted average cost of capital = cost of equity x weight of equity + cost of debt x weight of debt
where,
cost of equity = 11 %
cost of debt (consider after tax) = 6% x (1 - 0.30) = 4.20 %
weight of equity = 250 million ÷ 350 million = 0.71
weight of debt = 100 million ÷ 350 million = 0.29
therefore,
weighted average cost of capital = 11 % x 0.71 + 4.20 % x 0.29
= 9.028 %

Reuben Corporation holds assets with a fair value of $150,000 and a book value of $125,000 and liabilities with a book value and fair value of $50,000. What balance will be assigned to the noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheet if Holmes Company pays $90,000 to acquire 75 percent ownership in Reuben and goodwill of $20,000 is reported
Answer:
$30,000
Explanation:
Fair value of equity = Fair value of Assets - Fair value of liabilities
Fair value of equity = $150,000 - $50,000
Fair value of equity = $100,000
Holmes Company pays $75,000 to acquire 75% of Equity
Holmes Company pays $15,000 for 75% of goodwill
Non controlling interest = 25% of Equity + 25% of Goodwill
Non controlling interest = 0.25*($100,000) + 0.25*($20000)
Non controlling interest = $25,000 + $5,000
Non controlling interest = $30,000
If elasticity of demand is 0.6, elasticity of supply is 0.6, and a 20% excise tax is levied on the good:________a. The fraction of the tax borne by consumers will be 0.5. b. The fraction of the tax borne by suppliers will be 0.6 c. The fraction of the tax borne by consumers will be 0.6. d. The fraction of the tax borne by suppliers will be 0.3.
Answer:
The correct option a. The fraction of the tax borne by consumers will be 0.5.
Explanation:
The tax burden is determined by the supply and demand price elasticity. Consumers bear the burden of the tax more than the suppliers when supply is more elastic than demand. When demand is more elastic than supply, the tax burden falls more on suppliers than consumers. When demand elasticity and supply elasticity are identical, the tax burden is shared equally by consumers and suppliers.
From the question, we have:
Elasticity of demand = Elasticity of supply = 0.6
Since demand elasticity and supply elasticity are identical, the burden of 20% excise tax is shared equally by consumers and suppliers. That 50% by 50%, or 0.5 by 0.5.
Therefore, the correct option a. The fraction of the tax borne by consumers will be 0.5.
The CEO of Kwikee Shoppe, a chain of convenience stores, believes that some of his managers aren’t making decisions as effectively as they could. He has hired you as a consultant to analyze the types of bias that could be causing poor decisions. If you can identify the biases that may cloud their judgment, then they can be made aware of these tendencies so they can improve their performance. You gather data about Kwikee Shoppe managers’ most recent decisions.
Stella is in charge of the western region, and she has a strong track record of opening new stores that perform well and closing stores that could not contribute satisfactorily to the bottom line. Lately, however, many of her new stores have had below average performance, and she has closed some stores that probably could have been turned around by putting a different store manager in charge, advertising more, or offering more specials on popular products. Nonetheless, Stella knows that she is great at her job. Which of the following would not be a way for Stella overcome this bias?
A. Consult with other regional managers for their opinion before closing stores.
B. Before closing a store, replace the manager with one from a successful store and revisit the decision in 90 days.
C. Create a checklist of items to ask before closing stores, providing weights to each item based on their importance.
D. Focus on the stores that she closed that would not have improved with a different manager in place, additional advertising, or sales.
Answer:
Kwikee Shoppe
The way that Stella would overcome this bias is:
D. Focus on the stores that she closed that would not have improved with a different manager in place, additional advertising, or sales.
Explanation:
The other listed actions would enable Stella to overcome her personal bias, which may be clouding her sense of judgment. The focus on the stores that she had closed would only puff her ego instead of reducing bias. To focus on the past when Stella is proud of her achievements cannot allow her to objectively review the situation in order to improve on her decisions and performance.

The beta coefficient A stock's contribution to the market risk of a well-diversified portfolio is called risk. According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), this risk can be measured by a metric called the beta coefficient, which calculates the degree to which a stock moves with the movements in the market. Based on your understanding of the beta coefficient, indicate whether each statement in the following table is true or false: Statement True False A stock that is more volatile than the market will have a beta of less than 1.0. Over time, a stock with a beta of 1.0 produces a return that goes up and down with a 1:1 relationship with the return on the market Beta measures the volatility in stock movements relative to the market. There are different ways of calculating the beta coefficient for a stock. Using the information given in the following table, calculate the beta coefficient of Stocki: Data 35.00% 32.00% Stock I's standard deviation Market's standard deviation Correlation between Stock i and the market Beta coefficient of Stock i: 0.65 To calculate the beta of another company, using regression analysis, you get the value of Ra as 0.27. Based on your calculation, which of the following interpretations is true? The percentage of variance in the company's stock explained by the market is lower than that of a typical stock. The percentage of variance in the company's stock explained by the market is higher than that of a typical stock.
Solution :
1. The relevant risk is considered as the "unknown unknowns" which may occur due to the risk in everyday life. In all risky investments, it is unavoidable. The contribution of the stock to the market risk in a well diversified portfolio is called as the relevant risk. Diversification is the main strategy for minimizing the relevant risk.
2.
Statement : A stock that is more volatile than the market will have a beta of less than 1.0.
---- False, as it will be more volatile with that of the market.
Statement : Over time, a stock with a beta of 1.0 produces a return that goes up and down with a 1:1 relationship with the return on the market
---- True as beta of the market is 1 and therefore, the stock beta is also 1.
Statement : Beta measures the volatility in stock movements relative to the market.
--- True. The beta measures all the volatility in the stock moments relative to the market.
3. We know that :
[tex]$\text{Beta= Correlation coefficient} \times \frac{\text{SD of stock}}{\text{SD of market}} $[/tex]
[tex]$=0.65 \times \frac{35}{32}$[/tex]
= 0.71
4. The percentage of the variance in the stock of the company that is explained by the market is lower than that of the typical stock.

If the price per unit were doubled at the same time that the variable cost per unit was doubled, the break-even point would be:
Answer:
halved
Explanation:
Breakeven quantity are the number of units produced and sold at which net income is zero
Breakeven quantity = fixed cost / price – variable cost per unit
Assume fixed cost is initially 1000 units, price is 10, variable cost is 5
breakeven quantity = 1000 / (10 - 5) = 200
assume price per unit were doubled at the same time that the variable cost per unit was doubled
1000 / ( 20 - 10) = 100
breakeven point is halved
a. If management reports truthfully, what economic events are likely to prompt the following accounting changes?
• Increase in the estimated life of depreciable assets
• Decrease in the uncollectible allowance as a percentage of gross receivables
• Recognition of revenues at the point of delivery rather than at the point cash is received
• Capitalization of a higher proportion of software R&D costs
b. What features of accounting, if any, would make it costly for dishonest managers to make the same changes without any corresponding economic changes?
Answer:
Increase in the estimated life of depreciable assets
Opinion of third parties
Explanation:
If management reports truthfully, the economic events that are likely to prompt the following accounting changes are an increase in the estimated life of depreciable assets.
The features of accounting, that would make it costly for dishonest managers to make the same changes without any corresponding economic changes is auditing.
Auditiors are the third parties which provide a clean account of the financial statement of the company, therefore if the changes in the accounting policy are consistent with economic changes, the audits will not provide a clean account of the financial statement

Your boss believes the company's power plant is producing too much air pollution on a typical island. Your boss gives you three choices for dealing with this problem because he/she does not want to deal with it: You can pay a pollution tax (Carbon Offsets) one time of $13,000,000 immediately. You can close the plant and install a power cable from the mainland to the Island. That will cost you $1,000,000 at the end of this year, $3,000,000 at the end of next year and then $750,000 forever for maintenance. You can retrofit the plant with scrubbers to reduce the emissions to make the plant green. That will cost $7.5m at the end of this year and $100,000 for 50-years for maintenance. Assume that the cost of generating power on the mainland is approximately the same as the cost of generating power at the Island's plant. Assume, this comes as a surprise to you and you, have not saved any money in reserves, and you need to raise capital. Additional information is that market has a 12 percent market risk premium on the power plant with the risk-free rate being 5 percent with a company tax rate of 35 percent.
Current total raised capital at the power plant: (This will help you calculate the WACC) Debt – 7,000 outstanding bonds, at 7.5% coupon and 20 years to maturity. These bonds pay interest semiannually and quoted a price of 108 percent of par. Common Stock -180,000 shares outstanding, selling for $50 per share: Beta .90. Preferred Stock – 8,000 shares of 5.5 percent preferred stock outstanding, currently selling for $95.00 per share. Please answer in essay format and provide your Excel document showing all your calculation in appendixes choose the best option for Island. Support your answer with your calculations. Also, to calculations use specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles.
Answer:
WACC is 10.38%.
Best option is no 3, paying $750,000 this year and then $100,000 for 5 years.
Explanation:
WACC = Common stock * cost of equity + Debt * Cost of debt + Preferred stock * rate of return.
Common stock = 180,000 shares * $50 = $9,000,000
Preferred stock = 8,000 shares * $95 per share = $760,000
Debt = 7,000 bonds * 108% = $7,560,000
Cost of equity : 12% * 0.9 + 5% = 12.5%
Cost of debt : 7.5% * 0.65 = 4.40%
Preferred stock return rate : 5.5% / 95 = 5.79%
WACC = 10.38%
PV for option 1: $13,000,000
PV for option 2: $9,298,647
PV for option 3: $7,661,247

From the payoff matrix, it can be observed that, when Jacques plays Left, Kyoko will also play Left because 4 > 3. But, when Jacques plays Right, Kyoko will still play Left because 4 > 3. This indicated that Kyoko will always play Left no matter what Jacques plays. As a result, the dominant strategy for Kyoko is Left.
On the other hand, when Kyoko plays Left, Jacques will play Right because 5 > 4. But when Kyoko plays Right, Jacques will play Left because 6 > 5. This shows that Jacques does not have any particular strategy that make him better off. As a result, Jacques does not have a dominant strategy.
Based on the above analysis, we have:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for Kyoko to choose Left. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Jacques chooses Right and Kyoko chooses Left.

Suppose there is a simple one good economy that only produces spinning rims. In 2015, the economy was able to produce 1 million sets of spinning rims at an amazing price of $500 per set. In 2016, the economy was able to produce 1 million sets of spinning rims at a price of $1,000 per set. By what amount did real GDP increase between 2015 and 2016 in the simple one good economy
Answer: 0
Explanation:
Firstly, we will calculate the nominal value in 2015 which will be:
= $500 x 1 million
= $500 million
The nominal value in 2016 will be:
= $1000 x 1 million
= $1 billion
Real GDP will be the price of the base year multiplied by the quantity of the current year which will be:
= $500 million x 1 million sets
= $500 million
Therefore, the increase in real GDP is zero.
