Finch Painting Company is considering whether to purchase a new spray paint machine that costs $2,000. The machine is expected to save labor, increasing net income by $300 per year. The effective life of the machine is 15 years according to the manufacturer’s estimate. Required Determine the unadjusted rate of return based on the average cost of the investment

Answers

Answer:

13.9%

Explanation:

Given that:

Cost of the machine: $2,000

Net income increasing:  $300

Number of years: 15 => depreciation per year: $2,000 /15 =$133

=> Average Return: $300  - $133  = $167

As we know:

Average investment (Assuming no salvage value:)

= (beginning investment + ending investing)/2

(2000 + 0 )/ 2 = 1,200  

So, the unadjusted rate of return based on the average cost of the investment:

= [tex]\frac{average \: return}{average \: investment}[/tex]

= $167 / $1,200  

= 0.139

= 13.9%

To calculate the unadjusted rate of return based on the average cost of the investment for the spray paint machine, divide the annual increase in net income by the average cost of the investment. The average cost is obtained assuming straight-line depreciation over the effective life of 15 years. In this case, the unadjusted rate of return is 30%.

The student is asking about how to determine the unadjusted rate of return on a new potential investment in a spray paint machine, based on the average cost of the investment. The unadjusted rate of return is calculated by taking the expected annual increase in net income and dividing it by the average cost of the investment. If the spray paint machine costs $2,000 and increases net income by $300 per year with an effective life of 15 years, the unadjusted rate of return calculation would be as follows:

Annual Increase in Net Income: $300
Initial Cost of the Machine: $2,000
Effective Life of the Machine: 15 years
Average Cost of Investment: ($2,000 / 2) = $1,000 (assuming straight-line depreciation)

Unadjusted Rate of Return = ($300 / $1,000) * 100 = 30%

Therefore, the unadjusted rate of return on the spray paint machine is 30%.

Bia garden store makes two types of gazebo. Making a wooden gazebo requires 4 hours of labor while making a metal gazebo requires 10 hours of labor. During the most recent accounting period the company made 2,000 wooden gazebos and 500 metal gazebos. Indirect manufacturing costs amounted to $52,000 and are allocated based on labor hours. Based on this information: OA. $4 of overhead cost should be allocated to each gazebo regardless of the type. OB. $20.80 of overhead cost should be allocated to each gazebo regardless of the type. O C.$16 of overhead cost should be assigned to each wooden gazebo and $40 of overhead cost should be assigned to each metal gazebo. None of the answers are correct.

Answers

Answer:

C.$16 of overhead cost should be assigned to each wooden gazebo and

   $40 of overhead cost should be assigned to each metal gazebo

Explanation:

2,000 wooden x 4 hours = 8,000 labor hours

500 metal x 10 = 5,000 labor hours

total hours 13,000

single manufacturing overhead: 52,000 / 13,000 = $4 per labor hours

wooden gazebos:  4hours x $4 = $ 16

metal gazebos:    10 hours x $4 = $40

Answers

Answer:

136.20 days

Explanation:

Given that,

Opening inventory = 546,745

Closing inventory = 585,764

Cost of goods sold in 2016 = $1,517,397

Average inventory:

= (Opening inventory + Closing inventory) ÷ 2

= (546,745 + 585,764) ÷ 2

= 1,132,509 ÷ 2

= 566,254.5

Therefore, the average days inventory outstanding is calculated by the following formula:

= Average inventory ÷ (COGS/365 days)

= 566,254.5 ÷ ($1,517,397/365)

= 566,254.5 ÷ 4,157.3

= 136.20 days

Answers

Answer:

Bond Bill : -10.94 %Bond Ted: -22.47%  

Explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

Both Bond Bill and Bond Ted have 9.4 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Bill has 5 years to maturity, whereas Bond Ted has 22 years to maturity. Both bonds have a par value of 1,000. If interest rates suddenly rise by 3 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of these bonds?  

My answer:

Bond Bill

New yield will be = 9.4℅ + 3℅ = 12.4℅

Semi annual yield = 12.4/2 = 6.2℅

Nper: 5*2 =10

Coupon rate:  9.4%/2 = 4.7% semiannual

=> Coupon payment: 4.7%*1,000 = $47

Using present value formula in excel

pv=(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

pv= (6.2%, 10, 47, 1000)

pv= 890.64

=> Therefore, ℅ change =

(890.64  - 1000) / 1000 = -10.94%

Bond Ted

New yield will be = 9.4℅ + 3℅ = 12.4℅

Semi annual yield = 12.4/2 = 6.2℅

Nper: 22*2 =44

Coupon rate:  9.4%/2 = 4.7% semiannual

=> Coupon payment: 4.7%*1,000 = $47

Using present value formula in excel

pv=(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

pv= (6.2%, 44, 47, 1000)

pv = $775.21

=> Therefore, ℅ change :

(775.21  - 1000) / 1000 = -22.47%

Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is 0.75 and the government spending multiplier is 4. If the government decreases its purchases by $100 million, the aggregate demand curve will shift to the by $ million. If the government increases income taxes by $100 million, the aggregate demand curve will shift to the by $ million.

Answers

Final answer:

The aggregate demand curve will shift to the left by $400 million if government purchases decrease by $100 million, and it will shift to the right by $300 million if income taxes increase by $100 million.

Explanation:

The government spending multiplier is a number that indicates how much change in aggregate demand would result from a given change in government spending. If the government decreases its purchases by $100 million, the aggregate demand curve will shift to the left by $400 million. This is because the initial decrease in government spending will lead to a decrease in income, which in turn decreases consumption. The opposite is true for an increase in income taxes by $100 million. The aggregate demand curve will shift to the left by $300 million.

M. Cotteleer Electronics supplies microcomputer circuitry to a company that incorporates microprocessors into refrigerators and other home appliances. One of the components has an annual demand of 265 units, and this is constant throughout the year. Carrying cost is estimated to be $1.25 per unit per year, and the ordering cost is $19 per order.


a) To minimize cost, how many units should be ordered each time an order is placed?

b) How many orders per year are needed with the optimal policy?

c) What is the average inventory if costs are minimized?

d) Suppose that the ordering cost is not $19, and Cotteleer has been ordering 125 units each time an order is placed. For this order policy (of Q = 125) to be optimal, determine what the ordering cost would have to be.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. 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]

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{265}\times \text{\$19}}{\text{\$1.25}}}[/tex]

= 90 units

b. The number of orders would be equal to

= Annual demand ÷ economic order quantity

= 265 ÷ 90 units

= 3 orders per year

c. The average inventory is

= Economic order quantity ÷ 2

= 90 units ÷ 2

= 45 units

d. Now in this we have to find out the ordering cost which is shown below by applying the economic order quantity formula

[tex]Economic\ order\ quantity = \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex][tex]125\ units = \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{265}\times \text{ordering\ cost}}{\text{\$1.25}}}[/tex]

After squaring both the sides, the ordering cost is $36.85

Ultimately, the study of international business is no different from the study of domestic business. Thus, there is no point in having a separate course on international business." Evaluate this statement. Is it true? Why? Why not?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Where the culture and the mode of living are completely different, international business is going beyond boundaries.

People of single culture and region are been dealt with in the domestic business, and it is easy to know what the customer needs. Many cultures are been dealt with when it comes to international business, and there is a need for product customization as per the location. This would require a team that manages these issues in each region.

Hence, when compared to domestic business, the business will be in a large mode. Thus, there is a separate course for international business which helps us to reach the heights we require to see the whole world.

Based on the explanation above, the statement given in the question is false.

Final answer:

The assertion that the study of international business is no different from the study of domestic business is incorrect. International business involves dealing with different cultural expectations, diverse legal systems, diverse market conditions, multiple economic systems, and logistical challenges that are unique to operating across borders. Therefore, there is a clear need for separate courses on international business.

Explanation:

The premise that the study of international business is no different from the study of domestic business implies both disciplines require similar skills and knowledge. However, this is not entirely accurate. While there may be similarities, there are also many distinct elements that differentiate the two.

First, international business often involves dealing with different cultures, legal systems, and market conditions. Understanding these factors is crucial when trying to achieve success in international markets. For instance, successful marketing strategies in one country may not work in another due to cultural differences.

Second, in domestic business, one deals with a single economic, social and political environment. However, in international business, one has to deal with varying economic systems, regulatory structures, and political climates. There's also the issues of dealing with different currencies and complex tax regulations in international business.

Lastly, there are logistical challenges and strategic considerations unique to international businesses such as handling international logistics, managing subsidiaries in different countries, and dealing with geopolitical risks. Given the complexities and differences highlighted, it is clear that there is a need for separate, dedicated courses on international business.

The market wage for labor is $8. If you are using the optimal combination of inputs, then the price of capital is _______.

a. $45
b. $3
c. $24
d. $360

Answers

Answer:

c. $24

Explanation:

At the optimal combination, the ratio between the marginal product for the last units of capital and labor must equal the ratio between the price of capital and the price of labor.

If Labor costs $8 and has a marginal product of 15, since capital has a marginal product of 45, the price of capital is:

[tex]\frac{45}{15}=\frac{C}{\$8}\\ C=\$24[/tex]

Price of capital is $24.

Answer:

A company identified the following estimated data in its two production departments. During the current month, Assembly used 200 direct labor hours and 300 machine hours and Finishing used 300 hours direct labor hours and 200 machine hours. If the company uses a departmental overhead rate based on machine hours, how much overhead cost is assigned to Finishing this month?

Answers

Answer:

$9,000

Explanation:

1.Finishing’s departmental rate based on MH

= Finishing’s costs/Finishing’s machine hours

= $90,000/2,000 = $45 per MH

2.Cost assigned to Finishing based on MH

= Finishing’s departmental rate based on MH * Finishing’s currently used machine hours

= $45 per MH * 200 MH = $9,000

Therefore If the company uses a departmental overhead rate based on machine hours, $9,000 overhead cost will be assigned to Finishing this month

For financial reporting purposes, an advance payment for services is NOT recorded as a revenue, but rather recorded as a(n) . It will be recognized as a revenue when it is earned. For tax reporting purposes, an advance payment is taxed immediately because the payment meets the - test. However, there is an exception which allows the prepaid income to be recognized in the following the receipt if certain conditions are met

Answers

Answer:

The correct words to fill the gaps are: liabilities,all events,year

Explanation:

The receipt of advance payment for services is not seen as revenue because the beneficiary of such receipt is yet to perform the required services that would enable to recognized such amount as revenue,since revenue is not earned the party receiving the payment has rendered the required services.

However,for tax reporting purposes the advance receipt of cash can be charged to tax  without delay if the payment meets all events test.

That means all events which allow an accrual tax payer to report income or expenses have been met.

Final answer:

In financial reporting, advance payments for services are recorded as 'deferred revenue,' a liability, until the services are performed. For tax purposes, they are taxed immediately under the all-events test, with some exceptions.

Explanation:

For financial reporting purposes, an advance payment for services is not recorded as a revenue, but rather recorded as a liability.

This liability is often called deferred revenue or unearned revenue because it represents a claim on the entity's resources for services that have yet to be provided. It is recognized as revenue when the service is performed and the revenue is earned, adhering to the accrual concept and the matching principle of GAAP.

Deferred revenue is distinct from prepaid items like property taxes in government accounting, which are considered non-exchange transactions and recorded differently.

For tax reporting purposes, an advance payment is taxed immediately because the payment meets the all-events test. However, there is an exception which allows the prepaid income to be recognized in the year following the receipt if certain conditions are met.

This reflects differences in the timing of income recognition for accounting and tax purposes.

When considering non-profit organizations, the accrual concept still applies; donations are seen as payments for service in that they enable the non-profit to pursue its mission. Thus, requirements such as donor restrictions and the fulfillment of conditions tied to government grants have to be met before recognition of revenue in financial reports.

Sam buys fuel for his construction vehicles from the local distributer. He uses 8,500 gallons a month. The local distributor charges him $20.50 per order when he orders and it costs him $9.00 per gallon per year to store the gas at his farm. The distributer can arrive within an hour of his order and we have a 500 gallon tank he can fill. From a logical and reasonable standpoint, how much fuel should Sam order when he calls the distributer? (Remember how big the tank for his gas is)

Answers

Answer:

He should order 681.66 gallons to minimize the cost, but he have a 500 gallon tank he can fill, so he will order 500 gallons every time, to minimize the cost.

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

h = handling cost per unit = $ 9

S = Ordering cost per order = $20.5

He uses 8,500 gallons a month, therefore, the annual demand D= 8,500*12 = 102,000 gallons .

Therefore, the optimal ordering quantity would be= [ (2*D*S) / h ]1/2

"Alpha Corporation has one-hundred full-time non-union employees. What is the minimum number of employees that must be allowed to participate in the company’s defined benefit plan?

Answers

Answer:

The minimum number of employees that must be allowed to participate in Alpha Corporation’s defined benefit plan is 40. This is based on the 40% rule explained below.

Explanation:

A traditional form of a defined benefit plan is the final salary plan, under which the pension paid is equal to the number of years worked, multiplied by the member's salary at retirement, multiplied by a factor known as the accrual rate. The final accrued amount is available as a monthly pension or a lump sum.

It is usually offered to all employees who are at least 21 years of age and who worked at least 1,000 hours for the employer in a previous year. Two years of service may be required for participation as long as the employee will be 100 percent vested immediately when he or she enters the plan.

Minimum Participation in a Defined Benefit Plan is  40% of qualifying employees. Since Alpha Corporation has 100 full time non union employees, at least 40 of them must be allowed to participate in the company's defined benefit plan.

If returns of​ S&P 500 stocks are normally​ distributed, what range of returns would you expect to see​ 95% of the​ time? Base your answer on the information below. Small Stocks ​S&P 500 Corporate Bonds ​T-Bills Average Return 18.83​% 11.44​% 6.81​% 3.84​% Standard Deviation of returns 38.81​% 20.07​% 6.69​% 3.25​%

Answers

Answer: Between -28.7% and 51.58%

Explanation:

95% of the time would mean a 95% interval which would mean that it is between -2 and +2 standard deviation as it is Normally distributed.

We can therefore use the following formula to find the confidence interval,

= Average return + (2 * standard deviation) and,

= Average - return (2 * standard deviation)

= 11.44% + (2*20.07%)

= 0.5158

= 51.58%

and

= 11.44% - (2*20.07%)

= -0.287

= -28.7%

Between -28.7% and 51.58% is the range of returns expected to be seen​ 95% of the​ time.

Many economists believe that the market for wheat in the United States is an almost perfectly competitive market. If one firm discovers a technology that makes its wheat taste better and have fewer calories than all other wheat offered in the market, the wheat market would become less competitive becausea. there would no longer be many buyers and many sellers of wheat.

b. it would no longer be easy to enter and exit the existing wheat market.

c. the products would no longer be similar in the wheat market.

d. the government would want to intervene.

e. individuals would not want to switch products.

Answers

Answer:

Many economists believe that the market for wheat in the United States is an almost perfectly competitive market. If one firm discovers a technology that makes its wheat taste better and have fewer calories than all other wheat offered in the market, the wheat market would become less competitive because the products would no longer be similar in the wheat market- Option c.

Explanation:

Option c is the correct answer- the products would no longer be similar in the wheat market, the reason being that people with different taste preferences would prefer either of the two kinds of wheat available in the market, therefore making them less concentrated.

Final answer:

The US wheat market would become less competitive if one firm's product becomes superior to others as it disrupts the uniformity of products demanded by a perfectly competitive market. This corresponds to the multiple-choice option 'c'.

Explanation:

In general, economists consider the US wheat market to be highly competitive. Since the question posits a hypothetical situation where one firm devises a new technology that makes its wheat better tasting and lower in calories, the wheat market may become less competitive. This is because the products within the wheat market would no longer be similar. According to the principles of perfect competition, for a market to be perfectly competitive, all products offered must be similar or identical. This option aligns with choice c, as that firm's wheat becomes distinctively superior, disrupting the uniformity that characterizes a perfectly competitive market.

Dakota Inc. and Jersey & Company are two large companies that manufacture and sell equipment used in the construction, mining, agricultural, and forestry industries. The companies reported the following data (in millions) for two recent years:

Dakota Jersey
Year 2 Year 1 Year 2 Year 1
Net income $2,182 $3,715 $1,925 $3,187
Average number of common shares outstanding 594 599 334 363

Required:
a. Determine the earnings per share in Year 2 and Year 1 for each company. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the earning per share is shown below:

As we know that

Earning per share = Net income ÷  Average number of common shares outstanding

For year 1

Dakota

= $3,715 ÷ 599 shares

= $5.30 per share

Jersey

= $3,187 ÷ 363 shares

= $8.78 per share

For year 2

Dakota

= $2,182 ÷ 594 shares

= $3.67 per share

Jersey

= $1,925 ÷ 334 shares

= $5.76 per share

Purchases of product A during January were as follows:Date Units Unit CostJan. 10 400 $2218 500 2328 200 24A physical count on January 31, 2017 shows 400 units of product A on hand. The cost of the inventory at January 31, 2017 under the LIFO method isa. $9,400.b. $8,900.c. $8,500.d. $8,200.

Answers

Answer:

c. $8,500

Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory using the LIFO method is shown below:

Since it is given that 400 units of product A are on hand which reflects the ending inventory units

So

= 300 units × $21 + 100 units × $22

= $6,300 + $2,200

= $8,500

The 100 units depicts the remaining units i.e

= 400 units - 300 units

= 100 units

First we take the Jan 1 units than the remaining units would take from Jan 10

Calculate the value of a bond that matures in 12 years and has a $ 1 comma 000 par value. The annual coupon interest rate is 13 percent and the​ market's required yield to maturity on a​ comparable-risk bond is 11 percent.

Answers

Answer:

Price of bond=$ 1,129.847

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

Step 1

PV of interest payments

annul interest payment

= 13% × 1000 = 130

PV = A × ( (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

Annual yield - r=  11% per annum

Total period to maturity- n = 12 years

PV of interest  

=130× (1- 1.11^(-12) )/0.11

= 844.00

Step 2

PV of Redemption Value

= 1,000 × (1.11)^(-12)

= 285.84

Step 3

Total PV = 844.00 + 285.84 = 1129.847123

Price of bond=$ 1,129.8471

Required


A.What is the amount of interest expense to record for 2018?


B.What amount of cash was paid for interest in 2018?


C.Use a horizontal statements model to show how each event affects the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows. Indicate whether the event increases (I), decreases (D), or does not affect (NA) each element of the financial statements. In the Cash Flows column, designate the cash flows as operating activities (OA), investing activities (IA), or financing activities (FA). The first transaction has been recorded as an example.

Answers

Answer:

A. The amount of interest expense to record for 2018 is $320, calculated as follows: $12,000 x 8% x 4/12 = $320.

B. No amount of cash was paid for interest in 2018; i.e. = $0.00

C. Effect of each transaction on balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows:

1. Cash Revenue of $16,200

Balance Sheet - Cash and Retained Earnings are increased by $16,200.

Income Statement - Revenue is increased by $16,200.

Statement of Cash Flows: Cash inflows are increased by $16,200.  It is an operating activity (OA)

2. Bank Note Payable of $12,000 with accrued interest of $320 for 2018:

Balance Sheet - Cash and Notes Payable are increased with $12,000; Interest on Notes Payable is increased by $320 and Retained Earnings decreased by $320.

Income Statement: Net Income is decreased by $320.

Statement of Cash Flows: Cash inflows are increased by $12,000.  It is a financing activity (FA).

Explanation:

1. Cash revenue increases net income and Cash Account balance, and reflects positively on the cash flows for operating activities.

2. Notes Payable increases Cash Account balance (an asset) and Notes Payable (a liability).  It also increases the cash inflow for financing activities.

3. Accrued Interest on Notes Payable increases liability and decreases the net income, which reflects negatively on the Retained Earnings (Equity).  It does not affect the statement of cash flows as no disposal had been made yet.
