Explanation:
Final answer:
Using the LCM method, the proper unit values for inventory items D, E, F, and G at Dec. 31, 2014 are $75, $72, $70, and $30 respectively, based on a comparison of cost, replacement cost, and net realizable value.
Explanation:
When using the Lower of Cost or Market (LCM) method for inventory valuation, the goal is to ensure that inventory is reported at the lesser of the actual cost or the current market replacement cost, taking into account the net realizable value (estimated selling price minus selling expenses minus normal profit). We determine the proper unit value for balance sheet reporting purposes as follows:
For product D: Cost is $75, Replacement Cost is $120, and Estimated Selling Price is $120. Therefore, the LCM is $75 since it is lower than the market replacement cost and the estimated selling price.For product E: Cost is $80, Replacement Cost is $72, and Estimated Selling Price is $110. The net realizable value (NRV) would be $110 - $30 (Selling Expenses) - $20 (Normal Profit) = $60. The LCM is $72, since it is higher than the NRV but lower than the cost.For product F: Cost is $80, Replacement Cost is $70, and Estimated Selling Price is $95. The NRV would be $95 - $30 - $20 = $45. The LCM is $70, since it is higher than the NRV but lower than the cost.For product G: Cost is $80, Replacement Cost is $30, and Estimated Selling Price is $90. The NRV would be $90 - $25 - $20 = $45. The LCM is $30, since it is lower than both the cost and NRV.The proper unit values for balance sheet reporting purposes at Dec. 31, 2014 for inventory items D, E, F, and G are $75, $72, $70, and $30, respectively.

Explanation:
Showing the acquisition date FV allocation , which includes detailed steps such as allocation to BV,FV over BV and Goodwill allocation, between controlling and nocontrolling interests
$28000 was set out as the fair value of the building and will be amortized within ten years remaining
$80000 were to be recognized and amortized over 20 years
Amortized assets are : building and copyright
Goodwill = fair value of the assets acquired - controlling interests
The assets acquired include : copyright, common stocks , retained earnings and buildings
controlling interests = non-controlling interest * 30%
Goodwill allocations
Goodwill attributed to Vacker co. - 70% = $104000
Goodwill attributed to non-controllable interest - 30% = $36000

Southeastern Bell stocks a certain switch connector at its central warehouse for supplying field service offices. The yearly demand for these connectors is 14 comma 700 units. Southeastern estimates its annual holding cost for this item to be $24 per unit. The cost to place and process an order from the supplier is $76. The company operates 300 days per year, and the lead time to receive an order from the supplier is 3 working days. a) What is the economic order quantity? nothing units (round your response to the nearest whole number).
Answers
Answer:
305 units
Explanation:
The calculation of the economic order quantity is given below:
[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex]
where,
Annual demand is 14,700 units
Ordering cost is $76 per order
And, the holding cost or carrying cost is $24 per unit
So the economic order quantity is
[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{14,700}\times \text{\$76}}{\text{\$24}}}[/tex]
= 305 units
We simply applied the above formula to determine the economic order quantity
In 2021, the controller of Sytec Corporation discovered that $62,000 of inventory purchases were incorrectly charged to advertising expense in 2020. In addition, the 2020 year-end inventory count failed to include $40,000 of company merchandise held on consignment by Erin Brothers. Sytec uses a periodic inventory system. Other than the omission of the merchandise on consignment, the year-end inventory count was correct. The amounts of the errors are deemed to be material. Required: 1. Determine the effect of the errors on retained earnings at January 1, 2021. (Ignore income taxes.) 2. Prepare a journal entry to correct the errors.

omitted closing inventory ($40,000)
increase in cost of goods sold $22,000
Reduction in advertising expenses $62,000
Increase in retained earnings $40,000
The implication of this is that the closing inventory was lower by $40,000 and retained earning was lower by the same amount
The correcting journal entries:
Dr merchandise inventory $40,000
Cr Retained earnings $40,000
It is noteworthy that a lower closing inventory means a higher cost of goods ,as a result a lower operating profit and retained earnings
Consider returns R on a stock XYZ in the follwoing 4 states of he economy. each with probability p Boom state: p=0.15, R=35% Normal state: p=x?, R=8% Slowdown state: p=0.1, R=1% Recession state: p=0.2, R = -33% What is the expected return for stock XYZ? Quote your answer to 1 decimal place, but do not type the "%" Do not round intermediate results.
Answers
Answer:
The return on stock XYZ is 3.2
Explanation:
The expected return on a stock whose returns differ based on different scenarios can be calculated by multiplying the return in a scenario by the probability of that scenario and taking a sum of all such scenario returns after they have been multiplied by their respective probabilities.
The formula can be written as,
Return on a stock = rA * pA + rB * pB + ... + rN * pN
Where,
r represents the scenario returnsp represents the probability of scenariosProbability of normal state (x) = 1 - (0.15 + 0.1 + 0.2) = 0.55
Return on stock XYZ = 0.35 * 0.15 + 0.08 * 0.55 + 0.01 * 0.1 + (-0.33) * 0.2
Return on stock XYZ = 0.0315 or 3.15% rounded off to 3.2%
Shao Airlines is considering two alternative planes. Plane A has an expected life of 5 years, will cost $100 million and will produce net cash flows of $30 million per year. Plane B has a life of 10 years, will cost $132 million and will produce net cash flows of $27 million per year. Shao plans to serve the route for only 10 years. Inflation in operating costs, airplane costs, and fares is expected to be zero, and the company's cost of capital is 11%.By how much would the value of the company increase if it accepted the better project (plane)? What is the equivalent annual annuity for reach plane?
Answers
Answer:
1. If this is accepted the value of the company will increase by $27.0084 million.
2. The equivalent annual annuity for each plane:
Plane A = $2.973 million
Plane B = $4.586 million
Explanation:
1. Let's calculate Net Present Value (NPV) for Plane A:
Initial investment = $100 million
Annual cash flows = $30 million per year
Cost of capital = 11%
n = 5 years
NPV = (Annual cash flows × PVIFA (Cost of capital, n) - Initial investment
where PVIFa is Present Value Interest Factor
NPV = (30 million ×PVIFA (11%, 5) - 100 million
NPV = (30 million × 3.659) - 100 million
NPV = $10.877 million
Let's calculate Net Present Value (NPV) for Plane B:
Initial investment = $132 million
Annual cash flows = $27 million per year
Cost of capital = 11%
n = 10 years
NPV = (Annual cash flows × PVIFA (Cost of capital, n) - Initial investment
where PVIFa is Present Value Interest Factor
NPV = ($27 million ×PVIFA (11%, 10) - $132 million
NPV = ($27 million × 5.8892) - $132 million
NPV = $27.0084 million
In conclusion, the better project is Plane B as it has a higher net present value. If this is accepted the value of the company will increase by $27.0084 million.
2. equivalent annual annuity = NPV/ Present Value Annuity Factor
For Plane A:
equivalent annual annuity = NPV/ Present Value Annuity Factor ( 11%, 5)
equivalent annual annuity = $10.877 million/ 3.659
equivalent annual annuity = $2.973 million
The equivalent annual annuity for plane A is $2.973 million
For Plane B:
equivalent annual annuity = NPV/ Present Value Annuity Factor ( 11%, 10)
equivalent annual annuity = $27.0084 million/5.8892
equivalent annual annuity = $4.586 million
The equivalent annual annuity for plane B is $4.586 million
On January 3, 2014, Trusty Delivery Service purchased a truck at a cost of $90,000. Before placing the truck in service, Trusty spent $3,000 painting it, $1,500 replacing tires, and $4,500 overhauling the engine. The truck should remain in service for five years and have a residual value of $9,000. The truck's annual mileage is expected to be 22,500 miles in each of the first four years and 10,000 miles in the fifth year - 100,000 miles in total.
In deciding which depreciation method to use, Mikail Johnson, the general manager, requests a depreciation schedule for each of the depreciation methods (straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance).
Answers
Answer:
Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 - 5 under:
the Straight-line method is $90,000.the Units-of-production method is $90,000.the Double-declining-balance method is $86,170.Explanation:
The total cost of the asset is $90,000 + $3,000 + $1,500 + $4,500 = $99,000, since all the other costs were directly attributable cost and were necessary to bring the asset to usable form.
The painting is capitalized because it is the first time Trust Delivery would be using the asset, otherwise it would have been expendedOverhauling cost can be regarded as a separate asset, if we were provided with different useful lives - componentization.Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($99,000 - $9,000) / 5 years = $18,000 yearly depreciation expense.
Accumulated depreciation for Years 1 to 5 is $18,000 x 5 years $90,000.
The unit-of-production method is used when the asset value closely relates to the units of output it is able to produce. It is expressed with the formula below:
(Original Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated production capacity x Units/year
At Year 1, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($99,000 - $9,000) / 100,000 miles x 22,500 miles = $20,250/year
Accumulated depreciation for the first four years is $20,250 x 4 years = $81,000.
At Year 5, depreciation = $90,000 / 100,000 miles x 10,000 miles = $9,000
Note that this depreciation method results in higher depreciation charge when the asset is heavily used, at this time, it was in Years 1 - 4.
Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 5, under this method, is $90,000 (addition of first four years and the Year 5).
The double-declining method is otherwise known as the reducing balance method and is given by the formula below:
Double declining method = 2 X SLDP X BV
SLDP = straight-line depreciation percentage
BV = Book value
SLDP is 100%/5years = 20%, then 20% multiplied by 2 to give 40%
At Year 1, 40% X $99,000 = $39,600
At Year 2, 40% X $59,400 ($99,000 - $39,600) = $23,760
At Year 3, 40% X $35,640 ($59,400 - $23,760) = $14,256
At Year 4, 40% X $21,384 ($35,640 - $14,256) = $8,554 approximately (the depreciation expense would stop at this stage since the amount falls below the residual value).
Accumulated depreciation expense for Years 1 to 4, under this method, is $86,170 (addition of all the yearly depreciation).

Turnbull Co. is considering a project that requires an initial investment of $270,000. The firm will raise the $270,000 in capital by issuing $100,000 of debt at a before-tax cost of 9.6%, $30,000 of preferred stock at a cost of 10.7%, and $140,000 of equity at a cost of 13.5%. The firm faces a tax rate of 40%. What will be the WACC for this project
Answers
Answer:
10.32%
Explanation:
WACC is the average cost of capital of the firm based on the weightage of the debt and weightage of the equity multiplied to their respective costs. weightage can be calculated by using the market value of the equity and debt.
The formula for WACC is
Weighted average cost of capital = (Cost of Common stock x Weightage of Common stock) + (Cost of debt (1 - tax ) x Weightage of debt) + (Cost of Preferred stock x Weightage of Preferred stock)
Weighted average cost of capital = (13.5% x 140,000 / 270,000) + (9.6%(1 - 0.4) x $1,00,000 / $270,000 ) + (10.7% x $30,000 / $270,000 )
Weighted average cost of capital = 7% + 2.13% + 1.19% = 10.32%
The Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) for Turnbull Co.'s project, given the provided funding mix and costs, is approximately 10.36%.
Explanation:The Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) for Turnbull Co. will be calculated by taking the percentage of each type of debt in the total capital and multiplying it with its related cost. Each of these resulting values is then summed up. For the debt: ($100,000 / $270,000) * 9.6% * (1 - 0.40) = 0.02133 or 2.133%. For the preferred stock: ($30,000 / $270,000) * 10.7% = 0.0119 or 1.19%. For common equity: ($140,000 / $270,000) * 13.5% = 0.07037 or 7.037%. So, the total WACC for this project will be 2.133% + 1.19% + 7.037% = 10.360, or approximately 10.36%.

Soar Incorporated is considering eliminating its mountain bike division, which reported an operating loss for the recent year of $2,000. The division sales for the year were $1,049,000 and the variable costs were $859,000. The fixed costs of the division were $192,000. If the mountain bike division is dropped, 30% of the fixed costs allocated to that division could be eliminated. The impact on operating income for eliminating this business segment would be:
a. 57600 decrease
b. 132400 decrease
c. 54700 decrease
d. 190000 decrease
e. 190000 increase
Answers
Answer:
The impact on operating income for eliminating this business segment would be a decrease in profit of $132,400. The right answer is b.
Explanation:
According to the data, we have the following details:
division sales=$1,049,000
variable costs= $859,000
Hence, contribution= division sales-variable costs
=$1,049,000-$859,000
=$190,000
30% of the fixed costs allocated to that division could be eliminated
Decrease in fixed cost=$192,000×30%= $57,600
Therefore, the impact on operating income for eliminating this business segment would be $190,000-$57,600= $132,400, which means that there would a decrease in profit.
Answer:
Net decrease in operating income $132,400
Explanation:
The relevant cash flows to determine the impact of eliminating the division are:
lost contribution from shut down Savings in fixed cost from shut downPlease, note that only 30% of the fixed costs to be saved is relevant, the balance is not relevant for this decision. Simply because they would be incurred either way.
$
The impact on operating income:
Lost contribution = ( 1,049,000 - 859,000)= (190,000)
Savings in fixed cost = 30% ×192,000 = 57,600
Net decrease in operating income 132,400

JT uses the straight-line method for depreciation and requires a return of 12%. How desirable are the machines? Use annual rate of return to determine the answer.
Answers
Answer:
Machine B is preferrable with annual rate of return of 14.21%,higher than the required annual rate of return of 12%
Explanation:
Annual rate of return of both machine needs to ascertained ,then compared with the required annual rate of rate of 12% in order to determine which machine gives at least 12% annual rate of return and worth investing in.
Annual rate of return=net income/average investment
net income=inflows-outflows-depreciation
Machine A average investment=$352,000/2=$176,000
Machine B average investment=$380,000/2=$190,000
Machine A net income=$209,000-$154,000-($355,000/10)
=$209,000-$154,000-$35,500
=$19,500
Machine B net income=$231,000-$166,000-($380,000/10)
=$231,000-$166,000-$38,000
=$27,000
Machine A annual rate of return=$19,500/$176,000
=11.08%
Machine B annual rate of return=$27,000/$190,000
=14.21%
The Machine B is more preferable because its annual rate of return (14.21%) is higher than the required annual rate of return (12%).
The Annual rate of return of both machine needs to known to encourage comparison with the required annual rate of return
Given Information
The required annual rate of rate = 12%
Machine A average investment = $352,000/2
Machine A average investment = $176,000
Machine B average investment = $380,000/2
Machine B average investment = $190,000
Net income = Inflows - Outflows - DepreciationMachine A Net income = $209,000 - $154,000 - ($355,000/10)
Machine A Net income = $209,000 - $154,000 - $35,500
Machine A Net income =$19,500
Machine B Net income = $231,000 - $166,000 - ($380,000/10)
Machine B Net income = $231,000 - $166,000 - $38,000
Machine B Net income = $27,000
Annual rate of return = Net income/Average investmentMachine A Annual rate of return = $19,500/$176,000
Machine A Annual rate of return = 11.08%
Machine B Annual rate of return =$27,000/$190,000
Machine A Annual rate of return = 14.21%
Therefore, the Machine B is more preferable because its annual rate of return (14.21%) is higher than the required annual rate of return (12%).

Alkyl Fliers Company produces model airplanes. During the month of November, it produced 3,000 planes. The actual labor hours were 5 hours per plane. Its standard labor hours are 10 hours per plane. The standard labor rate is $8 per hour. At the end of November, Alkyl Fliers found that it had a favorable labor rate variance of $12,000. What was Alkyl Fliers' actual cost per labor hour
Answers
Answer:
$108,000
Explanation:
Favorable rate variance arises when the actual cost is lower than the implied cost. Implied cost can be calculated by multiplying standard rate with actual hours.
Labor rate variance = Actual Labor cost - Implied Labour cost
Favorable Labor rate variance = Implied Labour cost - Actual Labor cost
Favorable Labor rate variance = (Standard rate x Actual hours) - Actual Labor cost
$12,000 = ($8 x (5 x 3000)) - Actual Labor cost
$12,000 = ($8 x 15,000) - Actual Labor cost
$12,000 = $120,000 - Actual Labor cost
Actual Labor Cost = $120,000 - $12,000 = $108,000

When the selling division in an internal transfer has unsatisfied demand from outside customers for the product that is being transferred, then the lowest acceptable transfer price as far as the selling division is concerned is: A. variable cost of producing a unit of product. B. the full absorption cost of producing a unit of product. C. the market price charged to outside customers, less costs saved by transferring internally. D. the amount that the purchasing division would have to pay an outside seller to acquire a similar product for its use.
Answers
Answer:
C. the market price charged to outside customers, less costs saved by transferring internally.
Explanation:
Divisional manager performance is evaluated separately from one department to another. The Selling department need a minimum price equivalent to price the items fetch in market transaction to raise performance.
However goal congruence has to be met, therefore the price must exclude savings as a result of Internal transfer for the interest of the firm as a whole.
Camilo’s property, with an adjusted basis of $155,000, is condemned by the state. Camilo receives property with a fair market value of $180,000 as compensation for the property taken.
a. What is Camilo’s realized and recognized gain?
b. What is the basis of the replacement property
Answers
Answer:
The correct answer for (a) is $25,000 and $0 and for option (b) is $155,000.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:
Adjusted basis = $155,000
Fair market value = $180,000
(a). Realized gain = Fair market value - Adjusted basis
= $180,000 - $155,000
= $25,000
As, fair market value is more than the adjusted basis, so there will be no recognized gain.
So, Recognized gain = $0
(b). We can calculate the basis of the replacement by using following formula:
Basis = Market value - Realized gain
= $180,000 - $25,000
= $155,000
7. Suppose that people expect inflation to equal 3%, but in fact, prices rise by 5%. Describe how this unexpectedly high inflation rate would help or hurt the following: 1. the government 2. a homeowner with a fixed-rate mortgage 3. a union worker in the second year of a labor contract 4. a college that has invested some of its endowment in government bonds
Answers
Answer:
The answer is:
1. Help
2. Help
3. Hurt
4. Hurt
Explanation:
1. Help. This unxpected increase in inflation will help the government because this will increase its revenue and also reduce the real value of government outstanding debts.
2. Help. Paying at a fixed rate that was agreed when the interest rate was 3percent will be of help with the home owners because the real interest rate he will be paying lower. The lenders lose during this period.
3. Hurt. It will hurt this worker because the contract was agreed when the interest rate was 3percent. Now that prices of goods and services have increased, purchasing power will be reduced.
4. Hurt. Because with increased inflation, interest rates will be lower. So the college is earning lower interest rate.
Indigo Corporation significantly reduced its requirements for credit sales. As a result, sales during the current year increased dramatically. It had receivables at the beginning of the year of $35,100 and ending receivables of $196,800. Credit sales were $361,800.
(a) Determine cash collections during the period.
(b) Cash collections during the period $
Answers
Answer:
(a) $200,100
(b) $200,100
Explanation:
The movement in the accounts receivable balance at the start and end of an accounting period is due to cash payments, additional credit sales, and any amount written off during the period.
This may be expressed mathematically as
opening balance + sales - cash collected - amount written off = closing balance
$35,100 + $361,800 - cash collected = $196,800
Cash collected = $35,100 + $361,800 - $196,800
= $200,100

Answers
Answer:
only have value to the managers of companies whose costs are below the industry averages.
Explanation:
It provides help for the manager to the manage and to control the problem of high cost in the organization. It also helps to the manager to tackle the problem of low cost.
The industry benchmarks from the Footwear Industry Report help managers evaluate if their company's costs are competitive. They provide insights for strategic planning and decision-making, particularly when considering the expansion of production capabilities. An understanding of cost components like fixed, marginal, and variable costs is essential for optimizing operations and controlling costs.
Explanation:The benchmark costs provided in the Footwear Industry Report, such as industry-low, industry-average, and industry-high are crucial tools for managers. These benchmarks help managers assess the competitiveness of their company's costs in critical categories compared to their rivals. This comparison is essential for strategic decision-making especially when considering investments in facility expansions or new equipment to increase production capabilities.
Understanding the different components of costs, namely fixed cost, marginal cost, average total cost, and average variable cost, is fundamental because it provides detailed insights into the firm’s financial health and operational efficiency. Firms can have different cost structures, with some having high fixed costs and low marginal costs, while others operate under the opposite pattern. Managers can use these insights to optimize production levels and control costs effectively.
Finally, the pattern of costs can vary across industries and firms, making it vital for managers to not only rely on general measures but also to consider the unique aspects of their own firm when making decisions. A keen understanding of the cost of production is as much an art as a science and is indispensable for improving company performance in upcoming decision rounds and for financial planning.

Fowler, Inc., just paid a dividend of $2.55 per share on its stock. The dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate of 3.9 percent per year, indefinitely. If investors require a return of 10.4 percent on this stock, what is the current price? What will the price be in three years? In 15 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answers
Answer: a) $40.76
b) $45.72
c) $72.36
Explanation:
We shall use the dividend discount model of stock valuation to solve for this with the following formula,
P0 = D1 / (Ke - g)
Where,
P0 = Current Price
D1 = Expected Div AFTER 1 YEAR
Ke = Cost of Equity
g = Growth Rate
We have only the current dividend so we will apply the growth rate to find the next one.
a) Current Price
PO = D(1+g) / Ke - g
PO = 2.55(1+0.039) / 0.104 - 0.039
PO = $40.76
b) In 3 years. So we would need to use the dividend, 4 years from now to be able to calculate
P3 = D(1+g)^4 / Ke - g
P3 = 2.55(1+0.039) ^4 / 0.104 - 0.039
P3 = $45.72
c) In 15 years. So we would need to use the dividend, 16 years from now to be able to calculate,
P15 = D(1+g)^16 / Ke - g
P15 = 2.55(1+0.039) ^16 / 0.104 - 0.039
P15 = $72.36
If you need any and I mean any clarification, do comment. Cheers.
To find the current price of the stock, we can use the Gordon Growth Model (also known as the Dividend Discount Model), which is a method used to calculate the value of a stock that assumes that dividends will increase at a constant growth rate indefinitely. The formula for the model is:
P0 = D1 / (r - g),
where:
- P0 = Current price of the stock
- D1 = Dividend expected next year
- r = Required rate of return (or discount rate)
- g = Growth rate of dividends
Given that the last dividend (D0) was $2.55 and it is expected to grow at a rate of g = 3.9% per year, we first need to calculate the dividend expected next year (D1):
D1 = D0 * (1 + g) = $2.55 * (1 + 0.039) = $2.55 * 1.039 = $2.64945.
Now we can calculate the current stock price (P0) using the required rate of return r = 10.4%:
P0 = D1 / (r - g) = $2.64945 / (0.104 - 0.039) = $2.64945 / 0.065 = $40.76.
To find the price of the stock in three years, we need to understand that the price at that time will be based on the dividends expected in the fourth year, as stock value is based on future dividends. So we need to calculate the dividend in the fourth year (D4) and then discount it back to the price in the third year using the constant growth rate.
Let's calculate D4:
D4 = D0 * (1 + g)^4 = $2.55 * (1 + 0.039)^4 = $2.55 * (1.039)^4.
This result gives us the expected dividend in the fourth year. Now we use the Gordon Growth Model again to find the price (P3) at the end of year three:
P3 = D4 / (r - g).
We then calculate the expected dividend in the 16th year (D16) to find out the price in fifteen years, bearing in mind that the stock value in year 15 (P15) will be based on the dividend expected in year 16:
D16 = D0 * (1 + g)^16 = $2.55 * (1 + 0.039)^16.
Then, again, use the model:
P15 = D16 / (r - g).
Let's compute the actual numbers. First, calculate D4:
D4 = $2.55 * (1.039)^4 = $2.55 * 1.169858 = $2.98314.
Now calculate P3:
P3 = D4 / (r - g) = $2.98314 / 0.065 = $45.90.
Now calculate D16:
D16 = $2.55 * (1.039)^16 = $2.55 * 1.816892 = $4.63307.
Finally, calculate P15:
P15 = D16 / (r - g) = $4.63307 / 0.065 = $71.28.
Therefore, the current price of the stock is $40.76, the price in three years will be $45.90, and the price in fifteen years will be $71.28. These prices are based on the given growth rates and required return, using the Gordon Growth Model. Remember that the results may vary slightly due to rounding differences in the intermediate calculations. Rounded to two decimal places, your final prices may read:
- Current price: $40.76
- Price in three years: $45.90
- Price in fifteen years: $71.28

1. Peter's Audio Shop has a before-tax cost of debt of 7%, a cost of equity of 11%, and a cost of preferred stock of 8%. The firm has 104,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a market price of $20 a share. There are 40,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding at a market price of $34 a share. The bond issue has a total face value of $500,000 and sells at 102% of face value. The tax rate is 34%. What is the weighted average cost of capital for Peter's Audio Shop?
Answers
Answer:
9.14%
Explanation:
The computation of the weighted average cost of capital is shown below:-
Debt = $500,000 × 1.02
= $0.51 m
Preferred = 40,000 × $34
= $1.36 m
Common = 104,000 × $20
= $2.08 m
Total = $0.51 m + $1.36 m + $2.08 m
= $3.95 m
So, Weighted average cost of capital = ($2.08 ÷ $3.95 m × 0.11) + ($1.36 m ÷ $3.95 m × 0.08) + (($0.51 m ÷ 3.95 m × 0.07 × (1 - 0.34))
= 0.057924 + 0.027544 + 0.005965
= 0.091433
or 9.14%
Therefore for computing the weighted average cost of capital we simply applied the above equation.

Answer:
Target price $32.50
Target profit $4.50
Target cost $28.00
Explanation:
Target price $32.50
Target profit $4.50
Target cost ($32.50-$4.50)
$28.00
Therefore the target price is $32.50,
The target profit is $4.50 while the target cost is $28.00
Answer:
First of all let's understand that Target costing is a system under which a company plans the price, costs, and the margins that it wants to achieve for a new product in advance. The following are the three terms that should be familiarized.
(a) Target price – It is the price the company is expected to sell.
(b) Target profit – It is the required margin the company is expected to gain on selling price.
(c) Target cost – It is the cost the company is expected to incur on manufacturing of the product.
Based on the given information, the target price, target profit and target cost is determined as below:
(a) Target price is the selling price. That is $32.50.
(b) Target profit is the amount we wish to earn. That is $4.50.
(c) Target cost is the difference between the target price and the target profit. That is $28 ($32.50 - $4.50).

Answers
Answer:
See explaination
Explanation:
1. see attachment for the table
2: Conceptual connection
Year 4 : Sales = 14500000, Operating Income = 1200000, Average Assets = 15000000
ROI= Operating Income/Average Assets = 1200000/15000000 = 0.08
Margin = Operating income/Sales = 1200000/14500000 = 0.08
Turnover ratio :Sales/Average Assets = 14500000/15000000 = 0.97
The ROI has increased in year 4 over the 3rd Year’s ROI because Operating income is increased but inventory were same . So we are earning more amount of profit from the same level of investment which is the reason of increase in ROI.
3. Conceptual connection
Year 4 : Sales = 9000000, Operating Income = 945000, Average Assets = 12000000
ROI= Operating Income/Average Assets = 945000/12000000 = 0.08
Margin = Operating income/Sales = 945000/9000000 = 0.11
Turnover ratio :Sales/Average Assets = 9000000/12000000 = 0.75
The ROI has exceeded level of year 3 because operating profit is same but the investment in assets is lower under year 4. So we are able to earn same amount i.e. 945000 by investing lesser. The same return of profit with lower investment has increased the ROI.
4. Conceptual Connection
Year 4 : Sales = 14500000, Operating Income = 1200000, Average Assets = 12000000
ROI= Operating Income/Average Assets = 1200000/12000000 = 0.10
Margin = Operating income/Sales = 1200000/14500000 = 0.08
Turnover ratio :Sales/Average Assets = 14500000/12000000 = 1.21
The ROI has exceeded the level of year 3 because operating profit is increased at the same time the investment in assets is also decresed. So we are able to earn more amount by investing lesser. So there are two factors which has increased ROI first is more operating income and second the lower investment. We are able to earn more with lesser investment.
