a. The theoretical minimum number of workstations is:___________
b. The assignment of tasks to workstations should be:________
Were you able to assign all the activities to workstations equivalent to the theoretical minimum workstation ?
c. The efficiency of the assembly line is:________
Answers
Answer:
Please see explanation below.
Explanation:
a. Cycle time = Production time available per hour / Units required per hour
= 60 / 5
= 12minutes
Minimum number of workstations = Sum of the task time / Cycle time
Sum of task time
= 8 + 10 + 8 + 10 + 8 + 4
= 48
The theoretical minimum number of work stations is
= 48 / 12
= 4
b. In order to assign the tasks to the work station, events that precede the task must be considered together with the time taken to complete each task.
°Task A This task is assigned to work station 1 and no task would further be assigned to work station 1, otherwise it will exceed the cycle time.
°Task B. This next task will be assigned to work station 2, no additional task will be assigned to station 2.
Task C is assigned to workstation 3, hence can no longer accept any other assigned task.
°Task D is the next task and will be assigned to work station 4, and we cannot assign any more task to work station 4.
°Task E and F will not be assigned as there are no more available stations.
Task Time Workstation
A. 8 1
B. 10 2
C. 8 3
D. 10 4
E. 8 -
F. 4 -
Please note that due to the theoretical minimum number of work station, which is 4, it will not be possible to assign task to all the workstations hence task E and F remains unassigned.
C. Efficiency of the assembly line
Efficiency ;
= Sum of task times / Actual number of work stations × cycle time
Although the actual number of required workstation is 5 but we cannot assign task E and F due to the theoretical minimum number of workstation. Therefore, additional work station will be required and there are 5 work stations in total.
= 48 ÷ (5 × 12) × 100
= 80%
The theoretical minimum should be = 4
The efficiency of the assembly line should be 80 percent
The production time = 60
The units that are required per hour = 5
[tex]cycle time = \frac{minutes in one hour}{units needed in a day} \\\\cycle time=\frac{60}{5}[/tex]
= 12
The workstation = 8+10+8+10+8+4
= 48
[tex]The minimum number = \frac{48}{12} \\\\= 4[/tex]
The efficiency of the assembly line
[tex]\frac{48}{5*60} \\\\= 0.8\\\\0.8*100 = \\\\80percent[/tex]

After the initial offering, the bonds are trading in the secondary market at 105, while the stock is trading at $10. Which statements are TRUE?
Answers
Answer:
B I and IV
Explanation:
Each bond could be transformed into common stock at $10.50 par value. So the bond should be equivalent to the 95 shares that comes from
= $1,000 ÷ $10.50 per share
= 95 shares
Currently price of the bond is $1,050
Now each share price is
= $1,050 ÷ 95 shares
= $11.05
As the common stock is traded at $10 that represents the stock is less than parity and therefore there is no means to transform the shares
hence, B option is correct

Answers
Answer:
1. 9.03 %
2. 7.56 %
3. 72.45 %
4. 27.55 %
5. 8.63 %
Explanation:
Cost of equity is the return that is required by holders of Common Stocks
Cost of equity = Recent year`s dividend / Current Market Price + Expected Growth Rate
= $4.04 / $85.50 + 0.043
= 0.0903 or 9.03 %
1st bond issue
PV = $69,861,000
Pmt = ($73,000,000 × 5.30%) ÷ 2 = - $1,934,500
p/y = 2
n = 23 × 2 = 46
Fv = 0
i = ?
Cost of the 1st Bond Issue, i is : 2.1571 %
After tax cost = 2.1571 % × 77 %
= 1.66%
2nd Bond Issue
PV = $47,205,000
Pmt = ($45,000,000 × 5.90%) ÷ 2 = - $1,327,500
p/y = 2
n = 11 × 2 = 22
Fv = 0
i = ?
Cost of the 2nd Bond Issue, i is : 7,6681 %
After tax cost = 7,6681 % × 77 %
= 5.90%
Total Cost of Debt = 1.66% + 5.90%
= 7.56 %
Market Values :
Market Value of Equity = 3,600,000 shares × $85.50
= $307,800,000
Market Value of Bonds
1st Issues = $69,861,000
2nd Issue = $47,205,000
Total = $117,066,000
Weight of equity = Market Value of Equity ÷ Total Market Value
= $307,800,000 ÷ ($307,800,000 + $117,066,000)
= 72.45 %
Weight of debt = Market Value of Bonds ÷ Total Market Value
= $117,066,000 ÷ ($307,800,000 + $117,066,000)
= 27.55 %
WACC = Weighted Cost of Debt + Weighted Cost of Equity
= 27.55 % × 7.56 % + 72.45 % × 9.03 %
= 8.63 %

If the sales price is $, what is the after-tax cash flow?
Answers
Answer:
after tax cash flow = $29,512.32
Explanation:
the numbers are missing in this question:
purchase cost = $82,000
tax rate = 40%
selling price at end of year 4 = $32,000
MACRS 7 year depreciation schedule:
year % depreciation expense carrying value
1 14.29% $11,717.80 $70,282.20
2 24.29% $19,917.80 $50,364.40
3 17.49% $14,341.80 $36,022.60
4 12.49% $10,241.80 $25,780.80
after tax cash flow = $32,000 - [($32,000 - $25,780.80) x 40%] = $32,000 - $2,487.68 = $29,512.32

Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as all the important data are omitted from it. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Your estimate of the market risk premium is 9%. The risk-free rate of return is 3.8% and General Motors has a beta of 1.4. According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), what is its expected return?
Options:
A) 16.4%
B) 17.2%
C) 14.8%
D) 15.6%
The question is now answered as followed:
Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) can be described as a model that is employed to compute a theoretical required rate of an asset in order decide whether or not to add assets a portfolio of investment that is well-diversified.
According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), the expected return can be calculated using the following formula:
Expected return = Risk-free rate + (Beta * Market ris premium) .......... (1)
Where;
Risk-free rate of return = 3.8%
Market risk premium = 9%
Beta = 1.4
Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:
Expected return = 3.8% + (1.4 * 9%) = 16.40%
Therefore, the correct option is option A) 16.4%.
At the end of the current accounting period, account balances were as follows: Cash, $26,000; Accounts Receivable, $42,000; Common Stock, $18,000; Retained Earnings, $12,000. Liabilities for the period were:
Answers
Answer: Liabilities =$38,000
Explanation: An asset whether tangible or intangible is a source of value to a company examples are Cash, investments, accounts receivables etc
Liabilities are referred to the debts owed to a company or buisness at a particular period eg bank debts, tax owed, wages owed etc.
Equity is the measure of value of a company"s asset eg Common stock, retained earnings, , preferred stock etc.
The three above are related using the equation below
Assets = Liabilities + Equity.
Total Liabilities = Assets - Equity
Total asset = Cash + Account receivables = 26,000+42,000=68,000
Total equity = Common stock + retained earnings = 18,000+12000=30,000
Total liabilities =Total asset -total equity
= 68,000-30,000
= $38,000

Hawk Corporation purchased 10,000 Diamond Corporation bonds in 2015 for $55 per bond and classified the investment as securities available for sale. The value of the Diamond investment was $85 per bond on December 31, 2016, and $97 on December 31, 2017. During 2018, Hawk sold all of its Diamond investment at $147 per bond. In its 2018 income statement, Hawk would report:_________.
Answers
Answer:
Gain of $920,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what Hawk would report In its 2018 income statement.
First step is the adjustment of Hawk accumulation of unrealized holding gain and fair value for 205-2017
Unrealized holding gain and fair value Adjustment=($97- 55) × 10,000 shares
Unrealized holding gain and fair value Adjustment=$42×10,000 shares
Unrealized holding gain and fair value Adjustment= $420,000
Second step is to find the additional increase that occurred in 2018
Additional increase=($147-$97)×10,000 shares
Additional increase=50×10,000 shares
Additional increase =$500,000
Last step is to find the total gain realized in the income statement
Total gain realized=$500,000+$420,000
Total gain realized=$920,000
Therefore what Hawk would report In its 2018 income statement will be a gain of $920,000

1. What are Red Bull's greatest strengths and risks as more companies (like Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and Monster) enter the energy drink category and gain market share? 2. Should Red Bull do more traditional advertising? Why or why not? Discuss the effectiveness of Red Bull's sponsorships, for example, Bull Stratos. Is this a good use of Red Bull' marketing budget? Where should the company draw the line?
Answers
Answer:
Strengths
RedBull is a well-established brand in the Energy Drink sub-sector.It has been in existence since 1987 making it a 33-year-old company. That's a lot of experience doing the same thing. Given its years of experience, consumers have a lot of confidence in its brand. This means it has strong brand equity.As of 2019, RedBull still has the highest market share of any energy drink in the world with a record 7.5 billion cans soldRisks
The challenge is this, Coca-cola is a much older company with about 128 years behind it. It was established in 1892.Coca-cola equally has a very strong brand equityIn the carbonated drinks sub-sector, it has dominated the sector since 2004. It's market share is estimated at 42.5%.It has about 500 brands compared to Redbull which has only one brand.In Pepsi was created in 1893. Just one year younger than Coca-cola. It currently has about 24.9% of the soda market. Within the cola segment alone, it has about 100 flavours.Monster energy as a strong entrant into the energy drink market is only 18 years old and it already has 49 different drinks with about 14% market share worldwide.Suffice it to say that if Red Bull does not concieve of a critical strategy to maintain market dominance, it may continue to bleed it's market share.
2. Red Bull should do more than traditional advertising.
There is no reason why it can go into the Soda space. There are countries where the big players still exert a huge dominance. Mexico, for instance, consumes the more coca-cola than anywhere else in the world.
Red Bull in addition to keeping it's market share through aggressive advertising, can enter into the soda market, targeting these regions where coca-cola and other players seem to have a pseudo monopoly.
Red Bull can also look at creating more flavours depending on the psychographics of the target market it is looking at.
Bull Stratos
Red Bull Stratos is the official name for the project involving Mr Baumgartner's mission. Mr Baumgartner's project involved a record breaking jump for the ages from the edge of space which cost about USD 30 million. It is on record that this is nothing like what Red Bull have ever done before and it did so at a fraction of it's annual sports marketing which is estimated at about USD 300 Million.
To answer the question about its effectiveness, its definitely yes.
Over 8 million people saw the jump which had the Red Bull logo/ branding conspicuously displayed. It was dubbed "the most successful Public Relations campaign of year 2012."
The line will always be dictated by the metrics which show returns on marketing budget invested.
Any strategy that currently works to enhance the brand of Red Bull or at least keep its dominance over the energy drink market, must be explored.

Union Local School District has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.5 percent paid semiannually and 20 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on these bonds is 3.8 percent and the bonds have a par value of $10,000. What is the dollar price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answers
Answer:
$10,974.45
Explanation:
coupon rate 4.5%, semiannual = 2.25%
20 years until maturity = 40 periods
market rate 3.8%, semiannual = 1.9%
par value $10,000
market price of the bonds = PV of par value + PV of coupon payments
PV of par value = $10,000 / (1 + 1.9%)⁴⁰ = $4,710.13
PV of coupon payments = $225 x 27.84144 (PV annuity factor, 1.9%, 40 periods) = $6,264.32
market value = $4,710.13 + $6,264.32 = $10,974.45
Answer:
The dollar price of the bond is $10,974.45.
Explanation:
The dollar price of the bond, PV, can be determined as follows :
N = 20 × 2 = 40
PMT = ($10,000 × 4.5%) ÷ 2 = $225
P/YR = 2
YTM = 3.80 %
FV = $10,000
PV = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the dollar price of the bond, PV is $10,974.45.

Answers
Answer:
January 1
Cash $3168967 Dr
Discount on Bonds Payable $231033
Bonds Payable $3400000 Cr
Explanation:
The issuance of bond on January 1 is at a discount as the coupon rate paid by the bond is less than the market interest rate. In such case the bond is issued at a lower value than its par/face value.

The Sweet Tooth Restaurant borrowed $3,000 on a note dated May 15 with a simple interest of 11%. The maturity date of the loan is September 1. The restaurant made partial payments of $875 on June 15 and $940 on August 1. Find the amount due on the maturity date.
Answers
Answer:
Amount due is $1,256.14
Explanation:
Calculation of the interest to date at time of 1st partial payment
I1=PRT1
I1= 3,000 * 0.11 * 31/360
I1= $28.42
Remaining Principal = Principal + Interest - Payment
P1 = 3,000 + 28.42 - 875
P1 = $2,153.42
Calculation of the interest to date at time of 2nd partial payment
I2 = P1RT2
I1= 2,153.42* 0.11 * 47/360
I1= $30.93
Remaining Principal = Principal + Interest - Payment
P2= 2,153.42 + 30.93 - 940
P2= $1,244.35
Calculation of the remaining interest on the maturity date
I3= P2RT3
I3= 1,244.35 * 0.11 * 0.31/360
I3= $11.79
Amount due = Remaining Principal + Interest
P3= 1,244.35 + 11.79
P3= $1,256.14
Thus, the amount due is $1,256.14
You own 10,000 shares of Microsoft stock. A good way to hedge the risk involved in owning this stock would be to buy some call options on Microsoft stock.
a. True
b. False
Answers
Answer: False
Explanation:
If you want to hedge the risk of owning the stock then that would mean that you want to take measures to ensure that you don't lose out if prices fall.
A call option is not the way to do this because call options are bought with the expectations that prices will go up. If you buy call options then and the prices fall, you would make a loss on both the call options and the stock that you own.
A good way to hedge this would be to take Put options on the stock. Put options help you benefit if prices fall because you would be allowed to sell at a certain price unaffected by the fall in prices.

Answers
Answer:
$27,400 and $59,600
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense and the book value using the sum of-the-years'-digits method is shown below:
Depreciation expense is
= (Purchase cost - residual value) × useful life ÷ sum of years
= ($87,000 - $4,800) × 5 years ÷ (5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1)
= $27,400
And, the book value is
= Purchase cost - depreciation expense
= $87,000 - $27,400
= $59,600

Polly Khan is trying to calculate the current market rate given the following information: Investor’s have been requiring a 12% annual return on Builtrite’s stock which has a beta of 2.0 and the current risk-free rate is 4%. What is the current market rate?
Answers
Answer:
The current market rate is 8%
Explanation:
The market rate is the return on market or the market portfolio. To calculate the market rate (rM) we will use the CAPM equation which is used to calculate the required rate of return on a stock or portfolio. The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
rRF is the risk free raterM is the market rateWe already know the value of r, rRF and Beta. We will input these values in the above equation to calculate the market rate.
0.12 = 0.04 + 2 * (rM - 0.04)
0.12 - 0.04 = 2 * rM - 0.08
0.08 + 0.08 = 2 * rM
0.16 / 2 = rM
rM = 0.08 or 8%
