Swifty Industries had sales in 2016 of $7,520,000 and gross profit of $1,261,000. Management is considering two alternative budget plans to increase its gross profit in 2017. Plan A would increase the selling price per unit from $8.00 to $8.40. Sales volume would decrease by 10% from its 2016 level. Plan B would decrease the selling price per unit by $0.50. The marketing department expects that the sales volume would increase by 115,000 units. At the end of 2016, Swifty has 45,000 units of inventory on hand. If Plan A is accepted, the 2017 ending inventory should be equal to 5% of the 2017 sales. If Plan B is accepted, the ending inventory should be equal to 66,000 units. Each unit produced will cost $1.80 in direct labor, $1.40 in direct materials, and $1.20 in variable overhead. The fixed overhead for 2017 should be $1,553,000.
1. Prepare a sales budget for 2017 under each plan.
2. Prepare a production budget for 2017 under each plan.
3. Compute the production cost per unit under each plan.
4. Compute the gross profit under each plan.

Answer 1

Answer:Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

2016 volume = 7520000 ÷ 8 = 940,000

Plan A volume = 940,000 - (0.1×940000) = 846000

Plan A selling price = $8.40

Plan B selling price = $(8 - 0.5) = $7.5

Plan B volume = $940,000 + 115,000 = 1,055,000

Assume that there will be no financing transactions or costs during the quarter. Calculate the cash balance at the end of April.

Answers

Answer:

$37,700

Explanation:

Given that,

Cash balance on April 1 = $14,000

Cash collections during April = $40,000

Cash payments during April:

Purchases of inventory = $4,500

Operating expenses = $7,200

Capital expenditures = $4,600

All the cash payments such as purchases of inventory, operating expenses and capital expenditure are deducted and cash collections & opening cash balance are added.

Cash balance at the end of April:

= Opening cash balance + Cash collections - Cash payments

= $14,000 + $40,000 - ($4,500 + $7,200 + $4,600)

= $54,000 - $16,300

= $37,700

Marvel Woodcraft makes furniture. Marvel’s expected sales are 36,000 bookcases for the quarter. The company begins the quarter with inventory of 7,000 bookcases and wants to have enough finished bookcases on hand at the end of the quarter to provide for 20% of the next quarter’s expected sales of 40,000 bookcases. Based on this information, how many bookcases need to be produced during the quarter?

Answers

Answer:

The production requirement for this quarter is 37000 bookcases.

Explanation:

The required closing inventory for this quarter is = 0.2 * 40000  = 8000 bookcases.

The production requirement for this quarter can be calculated by calculating the bookcases that needs to be produced in addition to the opening inventory to meet this quarter's sales and the required closing inventory. Thus, the production for this quarter should be,

Production = Sales requirement for the quarter + Closing Inventory - Opening Inventory

Production = 36000 + 8000 - 7000   =  37000 bookcases

Marvel Woodcraft needs to produce 37,000 bookcases during the quarter, considering their sales projections, initial inventory, and the inventory they wish to have by the end of the quarter.

Marvel Woodcraft needs to calculate the number of bookcases to produce during the quarter, taking into account projected sales, initial inventory, and desired end-quarter inventory. To begin with, Marvel anticipates selling 36,000 bookcases in the quarter. Initially, they have 7,000 bookcases in inventory. By quarter's end, Marvel aims to have inventory sufficient for 20% of the next quarter's projected sales of 40,000 bookcases, which equals 8,000 bookcases.

To determine how many bookcases need to be produced, we start with the expected sales (36,000) and add the desired ending inventory (8,000). From this sum (44,000), we subtract the starting inventory (7,000), resulting in a total production requirement of 37,000 bookcases for the quarter.

Remaining equipment: Depreciation expense = (Cost - Residual value) / Remaining useful life = ($160,000 - $13,000) / (6 - 1) = $31,400 per year

You are interested in buying a share of stock in LMU Company. You expect a dividend payment of $10 next year and that the dividend will grow by 6% per year thereafter. You desire a 8% return on your purchase. According to the Gordon growth model, what is the maximum price you would pay for a share of this stock?​

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is $500.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

Dividend = $10

Growth rate = 6%

Rate of return = 8%

So, we can calculate the Maximum price of the stock by using following formula:

Price of stock = Dividend ÷ ( Rate of return - Growth rate)

By putting the value,

Price of stock = $10 ÷ ( 8% - 6%)

= $10 ÷ 0.02

Now that women are in the workforce in nearly the same proportion as men, the differences between men’s and women’s careers are expected to disappear.

Answers

Answer:

C. Policies that encourage  sequencing are needed to recruit women with children into the full-time workforce.

Explanation:

Most women with children are faced with the task of combining career and raising children. With the world ever evolving today most women pursue several careers. In order not to limit their abilities, job sequencing policies are needed to allow women effectively combine career and family.

Job sequencing is applied when jobs are chosen based on abilities to meet deadlines. It can be used for women who decide to re-enter the work environment after being away perhaps in the course of taking care of their families.

Schrade Company bought a machine for $128,000 cash. The estimated useful life was four years and the estimated residual value was $6,500. Assume that the estimated useful life in productive units is 135,000. Units actually produced were 58,000 in year 1 and 60,000 in year 2. Determine the appropriate amounts to complete the following schedule. (Round your answers to the nearest dollar amount. Do not round intermediate calculations.) Depreciation Expense for Net Book Value at the End of Year 2 Year 2 Method of Depreciation Straight-line Units-of-production Double-declining-balance Year 1 Year 1

Answers

Answer:

Net book value (NBV) at the end of Year 2, under:

straight-line method is $67,250units-of-production method is $21,800double-declining balance is $32,000

If there is need for NBV for Year 1, simply subtract the depreciation for Year from the cost.

Explanation:

Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / Estimated useful life = ($128,000 - $6,500) / 4 years = $30,375 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation for 2 years is $30,375  x 2 years $60,750.

The net book value of the asset (cost - accumulated depreciation) is: $128,000 - $60,750 = $67,250.

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: ($128,000 - $6,500) / 135,000 units x 58,000 units = $52,200/year

At Year 2, depreciation = ($128,000 - $6,500) / 135,000 units x 60,000 units = $54,000/year

Accumulated depreciation for 2 years is $52,200 + $54,000 = $106,200.

Note that this depreciation method results in higher depreciation charge when the asset is heavily used, at this time, it was in year 2.

The NBV under this method is is: $128,000 - $106,200 = $21,800.

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%/4 years = 25%, then 25% multiplied by 2 to give 50%

At Year 1, 50% X $128,000 = $64,000

At Year 2, 50% X $64,000 ($128,000 - $64,000) = $32,000

Accumulated depreciation for 2 years is $64,000 + $32,000 = $96,000.

The NBV under this method is is: $128,000 - $96,000 = $32,000.

Final answer:

The Schrade Company must calculate depreciation using straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance methods. The straight-line method results in a $67,250 net book value at the end of year 2, while units-of-production show $21,800, and the double-declining balance shows a $32,000 net book value.

Explanation:

The Schrade Company needs to calculate depreciation using three different methods: straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance. The cost of the machine is $128,000 with a residual value of $6,500 and an estimated useful life of four years or 135,000 units. Here's how the calculations are done for each:

Straight-line depreciation: This method spreads the cost evenly over the useful life of the asset. Annual straight-line depreciation is calculated as (Cost - Residual value) / Useful life in years. In this case, ($128,000 - $6,500) / 4 = $30,375 per year. After two years, the accumulated depreciation is $30,375 * 2 = $60,750 and the net book value at the end of year 2 is $128,000 - $60,750 = $67,250.Units-of-production depreciation: This method allocates the cost based on the actual use of the machine. The depreciation per unit is (Cost - Residual value) / Total estimated units. It equals ($128,000 - $6,500) / 135,000 = $0.9 per unit. For year 2, with 60,000 units produced, the depreciation expense is 60,000 * $0.9 = $54,000. The total accumulated depreciation over two years is ($58,000 * $0.9) + ($60,000 * $0.9) = $106,200, and the net book value at the end of year 2 is $128,000 - $106,200 = $21,800.Double-declining-balance depreciation: This method accelerates the depreciation expense. The calculation involves doubling the straight-line rate and applying it to the book value at the beginning of each year, not reducing it by the residual value. The double-declining rate is (100% / 4 years) * 2 = 50%. In year 1, the depreciation expense is $128,000 * 50% = $64,000. The net book value at the end of year 1 is $128,000 - $64,000 = $64,000. For year 2, we apply the same 50% rate on the new book value: $64,000 * 50% = $32,000. Hence, the net book value at the end of year 2 is $64,000 - $32,000 = $32,000.

Please note that the double-declining-balance method will not depreciate the asset below its residual value. The calculations provided are simplified and the company's accounting policies should be considered for exact figures.

Use this information to determine for December 31, 2018 the amount of Earnings per Share (rounded to the nearest cent).

Answers

Answer:

$6.25 per share

Explanation:

Basic Earning per share is calculated dividing Earning for the year excluding preferred dividend by weighted average number of shares.

Weighted average number of shares are used to calculate the basic earning per share.

January 1,

Numbers of share = $70,000 / $5 = 14,000 share

July 1,

Numbers of share = 14,000 share + 7,500 shares = 21,500 shares

Weighted Average Number of Shares = ( 14,000 x 6/12 ) + ( 21,500 x 6/12 )

Weighted Average Number of Shares = 7,000 shares + 10,750 shares

Weighted Average Number of Shares = 17,750 shares

Earning per share = Net Income / Weighted average numbers of shares

To determine the earnings per share for Baltimore Corporation on December 31, 2018, calculate the weighted average number of outstanding shares and divide the net income by this number. The earnings per share is $1.50.

Explanation:

To determine the earnings per share for Baltimore Corporation on December 31, 2018, we need to calculate the weighted average number of outstanding shares and divide the net income by this number.

First, let's calculate the weighted average number of outstanding shares. On January 1, the company had 70,000 shares. On July 1, an additional 7,500 shares were issued, resulting in a total of 77,500 shares. However, we need to account for the time period each set of shares was outstanding.

From January 1 to July 1, 70,000 shares were outstanding for 6 months. From July 1 to December 31, 77,500 shares were outstanding for 6 months. Using the weighted average formula: (70,000 x 6 + 77,500 x 6) / 12 = 73,750 shares.

Next, we divide the net income of $111,000 by the weighted average number of shares: $111,000 / 73,750 = $1.50 earnings per share.

If relatively capital-abundant country A opens trade with relatively labor-abundant country B and the trade takes place in accordance with the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem, what would be the consequence for factor prices (w/r) in the two countries? a. (w/r) rises in A and falls in B b. (w/r) rises in A and also rises in B c. (w/r) falls in A and rises in B d. (w/r) falls in A and also falls in B

Answers

Answer:

C) (w/r) falls in A and rises in B

Explanation:

Since country A has abundant capital, but lacks labor, the price of labor will originally be very high, but since the country is trading with country B, then the price of labor will decrease. On the other hand, in country B there exists an abundance of labor, so the price of labor was originally very low. As they engage in trade with country A, the price of labor will increase.

Kasey Corp. has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 6.02 percent and semiannual payments. The bond has a yield to maturity of 5.9 percent, a par value of $2,000, and matures in 16 years. What is the quoted price of the bond?

Answers

Answer:

$ 2,024.63  

Explanation:

The quoted price of the bond can e determined using the pv formula below :

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the semi-annual yield to maturity of the bond i.e 5.9%/2=2.95%

nper is the number of coupon interest payments payable by the bond i.e 16*2=32

pmt is the semi-annual interest on the bond i.e $2000*6.02%/2=$60.2

The fv is the face value of the bond of $2,000

=-pv(2.95%,32,60.2,2000)=$ 2,024.63  

The current quoted price of the bond is $ 2,024.63  as it expected that a bond with a  higher coupon interest compared to yield to maturity would be issued at a premium.

Final answer:

The quoted price of a bond can be determined using the present value formula and considering the bond's specific details. In this case, the quoted price of the bond would be $1,617.95. Understanding bond valuation, yield to maturity, and coupon rates is key in bond pricing.

Explanation:

The quoted price of the bond can be calculated using the present value formula. The formula considers the future cash flows from the bond's coupon payments and the par value, discounted back to the present at the bond's yield to maturity rate.

In this case, the quoted price of the bond would be $1,617.95. This calculation takes into account the specifics of the bond provided in the question.

hich of the following statements is correct? Group of answer choices Advertising expense is a product cost Service firms do not incur depreciation costs Human capital is an important resource for service firms, but not for other firms Cardboard packaging for the product is a product cost Sales commissions for the current month is a product cost

Answers

Answer:

Cardboard packaging for the product is a product cost

Explanation:

As we know that

There are two types of cost i.e product cost and the period cost.

The product cost is the cost which is directly related to the product i.e direct material cost, direct labor cost, etc

And, the period cost is the cost which includes the major part of the selling and admin expenses like - sales commission, advertising expense, etc

Plus, the human capital is necessary for all the firms and the depreciation is also charged in all type of business

So the cardboard packaging is the product cost

Tobin Supplies Company expects sales next year to be $500,000. Inventory and accounts receivable will "increase $80,000" to accommodate this sales level. The company has a steady profit margin of 10 percent with a 20 percent dividend payout. How much external financing will Tobin Supplies Company have to seek

Answers

Answer:

External funds needed = $40,000.

Explanation:

An increase in the firm's retained earnings (a component of the shareholder's equity) arises as a result of higher sales volume, thereby making the  Asset = Liability + Shareholder's Equity Equation unbalanced.

Therefore, there must be an increment in the firm's assets by an equal amount in order to re balance the equation. If there is an increase in assets by a greater magnitude than retained earnings increment, the gap is filled by external financing (which is a liability and increases the liability component of the equation).

Net income = Sales * profit margin = $500000*10% = $50000

Dividend= Net income * payout ratio = $50000*20%= $10000

Increase in retained earnings = Net income - Dividend = $(50000-10000)

                                                  = $40000

Increase in assets = $80000

External funds needed = $(80000-40000) = $40,000.

The source of the _ for loanable funds is saving. demand supply market interest rate The source of the _ for loanable funds is investment. interest rate market supply demand The _ represents the price of a loan. interest rate loan term catch-up effect rate of inflation

Answers

Answer:

The source of the supply for loanable funds is saving.

The source of the demand for loanable funds is investment.

The interest rate represents the price of a loan.

Explanation:

Note: The question is merged together and it is first separated before answering the it as follows:

The source of the _ for loanable funds is saving. Options are: demand, supply, market, or interest rate.

The source of the _ for loanable funds is investment. Options are: interest rate, market, supply, and demand.

The _ represents the price of a loan. Options are: interest rate, loan term catch-up effect, or rate of inflation.

The explanation is as follows:

The process through which borrowing occur is described by the market for loanable funds. In the market, what determines the supply of loanable funds is the amount of savings. The determinant of demand for loanable is the investment an individual wants to carry out.

The market is therefore market where suppliers of loanable funds and investors who need loanable funds meet. The interaction between the savings of the supplier and investment of the  borrowers therefore determines the interest rate which is the price and the amount of loan.

Final answer:

The source of supply for loan able funds comes from savings, while the source of demand for these funds comes from investment. The interest rate represents the price of a loan, and an imbalance in supply and demand can lead to changes in this interest rate in order to reach equilibrium.

Explanation:

The source of the supply for loanable funds essentially comes from savings. This includes savings by individuals and firms in the form of financial capital in the economy. Other sources include inflow of financial capital from foreign investors which approximately equals to the trade deficit, the value of imports minus exports.

On the other hand, the source of the demand for loanable funds primarily comes from investment in the private sector and government borrowing, particularly when government spending exceeds its collected taxes.

The interest rate is what represents the price of a loan in this context. The interest rate serves as the 'price tag' in the financial market for loan able funds. If it is above the equilibrium level, there is an excess supply or surplus of financial capital. This could lead credit card firms or similar entities to decrease their interest rates in order to attract business, leading to a movement towards the equilibrium level.

Determine (a) the break-even point in sales units and (b) the break-even point if the selling price were increased to $110 per unit. a. Break-even point in sales units units b. Break-even point if the selling price were increased to $110 per unit units

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Break-Even Point Radison Enterprises sells a product for $103 per unit. The variable cost is $70 per unit, while fixed costs are $217,800.

To calculate the break-even point both in dollars and units, we need to use the following formulas:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 217,800/ (103 - 70)

Break-even point in units= 6,600 units

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 217,800/ (33/103)

Break-even point (dollars)= $679,800

Now, the selling price is $110:

Break-even point in units= 217,800/(110-70)= 5,445 units

Break-even point (dollars)= 217,800/ (40/110)= $598,950

a. The aggregate expenditures model states that savings and that savings will increase when disposable income or real GDP .

- Disposable savings
- Marginal propensity to consume (MPC)

Answers

Answer:

(a) Either positive or negative; Increases

(b) Marginal propensity to save (MPS)

Explanation:

(a) We know that savings is directly related to the income level of the consumers. Savings may be positive or negative as it is dependent upon the level of disposable income. This means that an increase in the disposable income or Real GDP will lead to more savings.

(b) Marginal propensity to save refers to the proportion of the income (Disposable) that is saved by the consumer rather than spending for consumption of goods and services. It is defined as the extra amount of income that is saved by the household or consumer.

Compute the following:

(1) The break-even point in units of product

(2) The break-even point in dollars of sales

(3) The number of units of product that must be produced and sold to achieve a profit of $10,000

(4) The sales revenue required to achieve a profit of $10,000

Answers

Answer:

(1) 13,000 units

(2) $65,000

(3) 18,000 units

(4) $90,000

Explanation:

(1) Break-even point (in units) = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin Per unit

Fixed Cost = Factory Overhead + Marketing Expenses + Administrative Expenses

Fixed Cost = $15,000 + $5,000 + $6,000

Fixed Cost = $26,000

Selling Price = $5.00

Variable Cost = Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overhead + Marketing Expense

Variable Cost = $1.00 + $1.20 + $0.50 + $0.30

Variable Cost = $3.00

Contribution Margin Per unit = Selling Price per unit - Variable Cost per unit

Contribution Margin Per unit = $5 - $3

Contribution Margin Per unit = $2

Break-even point (in units) = $26,000 / $2

Break-even point (in units) = 13,000 units

(2) Break-even point (in dollars) = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin Ratio

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin / Sales

Contribution Margin Ratio = $2 / $5

Contribution Margin Ratio = 0.40

Break-even point (in dollars) = $26,000 / 0.40

Break-even point (in dollars) = $65,000

(3) Net Income = Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost

Net Income = $10,000

Fixed Cost = $26,000

Let x = Number of Units

$10,000 = $5x - $3x - $26,000

Add $26,000 on both sides we get;

$2x = $10,000 + $26,000

x = $36,000 / $2

x = 18,000 units

(4) Sales Revenue = Sales per unit x Number of units

Sales Revenue = $5 per unit x 18,000 unit

Sales Revenue = $90,000

The break-even point (in units) of product is 13,000 units.The break-even point (in dollars) of sales is $65,000.The number of units of product that must be produced is 18,000 units.The sales revenue required to achieve the profit is $90,000.

Calculation of break-even point in units of product

Fixed Cost = Factory Overhead + Marketing Expenses + Administrative Expenses

Fixed Cost = $15,000 + $5,000 + $6,000

Fixed Cost = $26,000

Selling Price = $5.00

Variable Cost = Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overhead + Marketing Expense

Variable Cost = $1.00 + $1.20 + $0.50 + $0.30

Variable Cost = $3.00

Contribution Margin Per unit = Selling Price per unit - Variable Cost per unit

Contribution Margin Per unit = $5 - $3

Contribution Margin Per unit = $2

Break-even point (in units) = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin Per unit

Break-even point (in units) = $26,000 / $2

Break-even point (in units) = 13,000 units

Calculation of the break-even point in dollars of sales

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin / Sales

Contribution Margin Ratio = $2 / $5

Contribution Margin Ratio = 0.40

Break-even point (in dollars) = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin Ratio

Break-even point (in dollars) = $26,000 / 0.40

Break-even point (in dollars) = $65,000

Calculation of number of units of product that must be produced and sold to achieve the profit

Net Income = $10,000

Fixed Cost = $26,000

Net Income = Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost

Let x = Number of Units

$10,000 = $5x - $3x - $26,000

$2x = $10,000 + $26,000

x = $36,000 / $2

x = 18,000 units

Calculation of the sales revenue required to achieve the profit

Sales Revenue = Sales per unit x Number of units

Sales Revenue = $5 per unit x 18,000 unit

Sales Revenue = $90,000

b.

$8,889 per year

Explanation:

a.

Buses are 9 years recovery period class , in which it is depreciated using historical method and it has 5 years GDS class life.

b.

Straight Line depreciation is a method of depreciation in which the cost of the asset net of residual value is divided over useful life.

We will depreciate this asset for only 9 years because it has 9 years class, even it will be kept for 10 years but the depreciation charged for 9 years.

Depreciation rate = ( Cost - Salvage Value ) / useful life = ($95,000 - $15,000) / 9 = $8,889

Depreciation charged in 2018 = $19,500

Answer:

a. Non- Current Asset

b. Depreciation Charge = $8,000

Explanation:

Straight Line method charges the same amount of depreciation on the asset over its useful life.

Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value)/ Number of Useful Life

                                   = ($95,000- $15,000) / 10

                                   = $8,000
