Answer:
The ABC overhead for a Deluxe kayak will be $170.93
Explanation:
[tex]\frac{Cost\: Of \:Manufacturing \:Overhead}{Cost \:Driver}= Overhead \:Rate[/tex]
We are going to divide the overhead cost over the cost driver of each activity.
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cccc}-&Overhead&Total&Rate\\fabric&246,000&10,000&24.6\\assembly&144,000&32,000&4.5\\setup&110,000&15&7,333.33\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
Now we apply the rate to Deluxe Kayak:
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cccc}-&Rate&Deluxe&Overhead\\fabric&24.6&10,000&246,000\\assembly&4.5&24,000&108,000\\setup&7,333.33&10&73,333.33\\Total&-&-&427,333.33\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
Finally we divide the overhead for Deluxe between the units produced
427,333.33/ 2,500 = 170.933 = 170.93

Suppose that the nominal interest rate in Japan is only 5.0 percent, while the comparable rate in the United States is 7.0 percent. Japan's rate of inflation is 2.0 percent while the U.S inflation rate is 6.0 percent. Which economy has the higher real interest rate?
Answer: Japan has the higher real interest rate.
Explanation:
Japan:
Nominal interest rate = 5%
Inflation rate = 2%
Real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - Inflation rate
= 5 - 2
= 3%
United States:
Nominal interest rate = 7%
Inflation rate = 6%
Real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - Inflation rate
= 7 - 6
= 1%
∴ Japan has the higher real interest rate.
Gerda, a real estate agent, is selling a moderately priced house in a subdivision. She knows from her uncle that the factory being built half a mile from the subdivision will be manufacturing dog food, using a process that creates a very strong odor that permeates the surrounding neighborhood. A buyer, who is unaware of the type of factory under construction, makes an offer on one of the houses Gerda is selling, and within a short time, the deal goes through. What does this scenario best illustrate?
Answer:
The correct answer is, Information Asymmetries.
Explanation:
Information Asymmetry is a concept in contract theory and economics, in which there are two parties involved, and out of which one party has better or more information than the other party.
So in this example, Gerda is a real state agent and she is selling a house to a party and she knows by her resources that a factory is soon opening in the area where she is going to finalize a purchase deal with the other party. But the buyer is unaware of the fact that a factory is going to open near the house which he is going to purchase. So this who scenario best illustrates the concept of Information Asymmetries.
Ben and Sam Jenkins formed a partnership. Ben contributed $8,000 cash and a used truck that originally cost $35,000 and had accumulated depreciation of $15,000. The truck’s fair value was $16,000. Sam, a builder, contributed a new storage garage. His cost of construction was $40,000. The garage has a fair value of $55,000. What is the combined total capital that would be recorded on the partnership books for the two partners?
Final answer:
Ben and Sam Jenkins' combined total capital in the partnership would be recorded as $79,000, determined by the fair value of the assets they each contributed: $24,000 from Ben and $55,000 from Sam.
Explanation:
The combined total capital that would be recorded on the partnership books for Ben and Sam Jenkins would be calculated based on the fair value of the assets they contributed. Ben contributed $8,000 in cash and a used truck. The cost of the truck is not relevant; what is considered is the fair value which is $16,000. Therefore, Ben's contribution totals to $24,000. Sam contributed a storage garage with a fair value of $55,000, which is what would be recorded for his contribution. Therefore, the combined total capital for the two partners is $24,000 (Ben) + $55,000 (Sam) = $79,000.
Tim Dye, the CFO of Blackwell Automotive, Inc., is putting together this year's financial statements. He has gathered the following balance sheet information: The firm had a cash balance of $23,015, accounts payable of $163,257, common stock of $311,300, retained earnings of $512,159, inventory of $213,000, goodwill and other assets equal to $78,656, net plant and equipment of $714,100, and short-term notes payable of $21,115. It also had accounts receivable of $141,258 and other current assets of $11,223. How much long-term debt does Blackwell Automotive have?
Answer:
210,421 Long-Term Liabilities
Explanation:
We are going to use the accounting equation to solve for long term liabilities
[tex]Assets = Equity + Liabilities\\Liablities = short\: term + long\: term[/tex]
Total Assets
cash 23,015
Account Receivables 141,258
Inventory 213,000
other current assets 11,223
PPE 714,100
goodwill and other assets 78,656
Total Assets 1,181,252
common stock 311,300
retained earnings 512,159
Total equity 823,459
We use he accounting equation to get total liabilities:
1,181,252 - 823,459 = 357,793 Total Liabilities
Now we calcualte the short-term debt
126,257 Account Payable
21,115 short-term Note Payable
Total Current Liabilities 147,372
And with this, the diference between short-term adn total liabilities is the long-term liabilities
357,793 - 147,372 = 210,421 Long-Term Liabilities
Blackwell Automotive's long-term debt is calculated by determining total liabilities using the accounting equation and subtracting short-term liabilities from this amount. After performing the calculations, the long-term debt is found to be $173,421.
Explanation:To determine the amount of long-term debt that Blackwell Automotive has, we need to calculate the liabilities that are not enumerated in the balance sheet information provided and subtract the sum of short-term liabilities from the total liabilities. Total liabilities can be derived by adding together the company's equity and liabilities, and subtracting its assets, since the basic accounting equation states that Assets = Liabilities + Equity. Here, the equity components are common stock and retained earnings.
The sum of the equity is the common stock of $311,300 plus retained earnings of $512,159, equating to $823,459. Summing up the given liabilities, we have accounts payable of $163,257 and short-term notes payable of $21,115, which totals to $184,372. Now, we compile the assets which include cash of $23,015, inventory of $213,000, goodwill and other assets of $78,656, net plant and equipment of $714,100, accounts receivable of $141,258, and other current assets of $11,223, leading to a sum of $1,181,252.
Using the accounting equation to find total liabilities: $1,181,252 (assets) = Total Liabilities + $823,459 (equity), we discover that Total Liabilities are $357,793. Subtracting the total short-term liabilities from this amount, we are left with long-term debt: $357,793 (Total Liabilities) - $184,372 (Short-term liabilities) = $173,421. Therefore, Blackwell Automotive's long-term debt is $173,421.
A company borrowed cash from the bank by signing a 5-year, 8% installment note. The present value of an annuity factor at 8% for 5 years is 3.9927. The present value of a single sum at 8% for 5 years is .6806. Each annual payment equals $75,000. The present value of the note is:
Answer:
Present Value of he note 937,525
Explanation:
We do factor times annuity to get the PV of the annuity
3.9927 x 75,000 = 299,452.5
Then, we do payment over rate to know which principal generates this amount of interest
75,000/0.08 = principal = 937,500
And then we calcualte the PV of paying the principal in the future
937,500 x .6806 =638,062.5
Last step, we add both values together.
Principal present value 638,062.5 + Annuity Present value 299,452.5
Present Value of he note 937,525
The present value of note is $299,452.50 at the time of making series of payment, that is, at the present value annuity factor.
What is meant by a note?A note is an document where the drawer of the note agrees to make the reimbursement of the due amount to the payer in a defined period of time.
Given values:
Annual payment: $75,000
PV of annuity factor: 3.9927
Interest rate:8%
Time: 5 years
Computation of present value of the note:
[tex]\rm\ Present \rm\ Value \rm\ of \rm\ Note=\rm\ Annual \rm\ Payment \times \rm\ PV\rm\ Annuity \rm\ factor\\\rm\ Present \rm\ Value \rm\ of \rm\ Note=\$75,000\times\ 3.9927\\\rm\ Present \rm\ Value \rm\ of \rm\ Note=\$299,452.50[/tex]
Therefore, when the annual payment of$75,000 has been made with present value of annuity factor of 3.9927 then the present value comes out to be $299,452.50.

Assume that at the end of 2018, Clampett, Inc. (an S corporation) distributes long-term capital gain property (fair market value of $40,000, basis of $25,000) to each of its four equal shareholders (aggregate distribution of $160,000). At the time of the distribution, Clampett, Inc. has no corporate E&P and J. D. has a basis of $15,000 in his Clampett, Inc. stock. How much income does J. D. recognize as a result of the distribution?'
Answer: Income J. D. recognize as a result of the distribution: $45000
Explanation:
First we'll compute the share of gain on distribution,
Share of the gain on the distribution = $40,000 - $25,000
i.e. $15,000
Now , we'll add the increase in basis from gain from property distribution,
i.e. ($15,000 original basis + $15,000 increase in basis from gain from property distribution)
So income to be recognized :3000+15000 = $ 45000
Answer:
JD will recognize $25,000 as income from the distribution.
Explanation:
In this question , first of all to calculate J.D. income from the distribution, we will take out how much of the gain will J.D. get on the distribution of the long term capital gain asset, where property is divided among 4 equal shareholder as the given market value is $40,000 and the basis given is $25,000, which means that J.D. will gain $15,000 ( $40,000 - $25,000) when the distribution takes place.
The next step would be to see if the distribution of $40,000 per shareholder exceeds the J.D. basis. So here we will calculate J.D. basis as,
J.D. basis = J.D. original basis in Clampett stock + increase in basis from
gain from the distribution
of long term property.
J.D. basis = $15,000 + $15,000
= $30,000
So here we can see that the distribution of $40,000 exceeds the J.D. basis
by $10,000, so we will add it in to $15,000 which will give us the total income recognized by the J.D. as a result of the distribution.
INCOME OF J.D. = $15,000 + $10,000
= $25,000

Jill’s business has current assets of $50,000 and current liabilities of $25,000. Which statement is true about the company’s current ratio? The ratio is $25,000 and is not acceptable for most industries. The ratio is 50% and is acceptable for most industries. The ratio is 2 and is acceptable for most industries. Current ratio can not be determined from the information given.
Answer:
The ratio is 2 and is acceptable for most industries is true about the company’s current ratio.
Explanation:
Current Ratio shows the relationship between currents assets and current liabilities. It is a type of liquidity ratio which is required to meet short term liabilities. The current assets includes stock, debtors, cash whereas current liabilities include bills payable, creditors, etc. Both current assets and current liabilities have a life of less than one year. The formula to compute current ratio is given below:
Current Ratio = Current Assets ÷ Current Liabilities
The Current Assets is $50,000 whereas current liabilities of $25,000
So,
The current ratio = $50,000 ÷ $25,000 = 2 times
The current ratio is always shown in times only.
Thus, The ratio is 2 and is acceptable for most industries is true about the company’s current ratio and other statements are false.
An activity-based costing system is developed in four steps: a. Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rate for each activity. b. Identify activities and estimate their total indirect costs. c. Identify the allocation base for each activity and estimate the total quantity of each allocation base. d. Allocate indirect costs to the cost object. Which of the following is the correct order for performing these steps? b, a, c, d a, b, c, d c, a, b, d b, c, a, d
Your question asks what order does a activity-based costing system work by.
Answer: b, c, a, dThe order:
1. b). Identify activities and estimate their total indirect costs.
2. c). Identify the allocation base for each activity and estimate the total quantity of each allocation base.
3. a). Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rate for each activity.
4. d). Allocate indirect costs to the cost object.
The reason why the answer choice "b, c, a, d" is the correct answer because that's the correct order for the activity-based costing system.
The activity-based costing system first identifies the activities that are going on and find the indirect cost, then identifies the allocation base for the activities that are occurring to find the quantity of the allocation base, then solve the pre-determined rate of allocation for each activity, and finally get the indirect cost for the object.
I hope this helps!Best regards,MasterInvestorThe Club Auto Parts Company has just recently been organized. It is expected to experience no growth for the next 2 years as it identifies its market and acquires its inventory. However, Club will grow at an annual rate of 5% in the third year and, beginning with the fourth year, should attain a 10% growth rate that it will sustain thereafter. The first dividend (D1) to be paid at the end of the first year is expected to be $0.50 per share. Investors require a 15% rate of return on Club's stock. What will Club's stock price be at the end of the first year ()?
Answer:
P1=$8.43
Explanation:
[tex]D1= 0.5\\D2=0.5\\D3=D2(1+g3) = 0.5(1.05)=0.525\\D4=D3(1+g4) = 0.5(1.05)(1.1) =0.5775\\[/tex]
The value of the stock is equal to the present value of all cash-flows expected from holding the stock. At the end of year 1, the value of the stock is found by calculating the present value of the remaining dividends i.e D2, D3, D4, D5 etc till infinity.
Therefore price equals[tex]P1=\frac{D2}{1+ke} + \frac{D3}{(1+ke)^{2} } +\frac{D4}{(ke-g)(1+ke)^{3} }[/tex]
given the values of Dividends calculated above and ke= 15% :
[tex]P1=\frac{0.5}{1.15^{1} } +\frac{0.525}{1.15^{2}} +\frac{0.5775}{(0.15-0.1)(1.15^{3} } = $8.43[/tex]
Final answer:
The stock price of Club Auto Parts Company at the end of the first year can be estimated using the dividend growth model, considering a dividend of $0.50 with no growth for the first two years. Assuming the growth rate for the first to second year is 0%, the price at the end of the first year, with a required rate of return of 15%, would be approximately $3.33.
Explanation:
The student has asked about determining the stock price of Club Auto Parts Company at the end of the first year, considering a set of growth and dividend conditions. To calculate this, we first project the future dividends the stock will pay, which requires an understanding of the dividend growth model. For Club Auto Parts, we're given that the first dividend (D1) is $0.50, there will be no growth for the first two years, a 5% growth rate in the third year, and a 10% growth rate starting from the fourth year onwards. Since investors require a 15% rate of return, we apply the Gordon Growth Model to estimate the price at the end of the first year.
However, the problem is incomplete as we need the dividend of the second year to calculate the price at the end of the first year. Assuming the second year dividend remains the same as the first year (due to no growth), the second year dividend (D2) would still be $0.50. Applying this into the model for a no-growth scenario, we would calculate the stock price as:
Stock Price = D2 / (required rate of return - growth rate)
Therefore:
Price at the end of the first year = $0.50 / (0.15 - 0.00) = $3.33
It is essential to note that this calculation assumes that the second dividend will not grow, which aligns with the company's expected zero growth over the first two years.

Which of the following is NOT a proposition of the Heckscher-Ohlin model? Countries will completely specialize in the product in which they have a comparative advantage if free trade is allowed to occur. If the United States is a skilled labor abundant country, then the United States has a comparative advantage in the production of goods that use skilled labor more intensively. The effect of international trade is to tend to equalize factor prices between the trading nations. A country has a comparative advantage in the production of that commodity which uses more intensively the country's more abundant resource.
Answer:
Countries will completely specialize in the product in which they have a comparative advantage if free trade is allowed to occur. ( first choice)
Answer:
First option: Countries will completely specialize in the product in which they have a comparative advantage if free trade is allowed to occur.
Explanation:
Countries produce a surplus of the product in which they specialize and trade it for a different surplus good of another country. The traders decide on whether they should export or import goods depending on comparative advantages. Imagine that there are two countries and both countries produce only two products.
A company has three product lines, one of which reflects the following results: Sales $ 215,000 Variable expenses 125,000 Contribution margin 90,000 Fixed expenses 140,000 Net loss $ (50,000 ) If this product line is eliminated, 60% of the fixed expenses are traceable fixed expenses, which can be eliminated and the other 40% are common fixed expenses that cannot be avoided. If management decides to eliminate this product line, the company's net income will ________. increase by $50,000 decrease by $90,000 decrease by $6,000 increase by $6,000
Answer: option C
Explanation: THIS CAN BE REPRESENTED AS FOLLOWS :-
If we eliminate the product there would be no sales, no variable expenses and therefore, no contribution.
sales = nil
-variable expenses= nil
contribution = nil
- fixed expenses = 56,000
NET LOSS = (56000)
.
NOTE :-
Fixed expense = (140,000)*(40%)= 56,000
.
.
Thus increase in loss would be 56000- 50,000=6000
Final answer:
The net income of the company will decrease by $6,000 if the product line is eliminated, considering the loss of the contribution margin and the savings from traceable fixed expenses.
Explanation:
To calculate the impact on the company's net income if the product line is eliminated, we need to consider the savings on the traceable fixed expenses and the loss of the contribution margin. If 60% of the fixed expenses are traceable, these can be eliminated when the product line is discontinued. The traceable fixed expenses that can be eliminated amount to 60% of $140,000, which is $84,000. However, by eliminating the product line, the company will also lose the contribution margin of $90,000 that this product line was generating.
Therefore, the net impact on the company's income is the loss of contribution margin ($90,000) minus the savings on traceable fixed expenses ($84,000), resulting in a net loss of $6,000. So, the company's net income will decrease by $6,000 if the product line is eliminated.
Montegut Manufacturing produces a product for which the annual demand is 12,500 units. Production averages 80 units per day, while demand is 50 units per day. Holding costs are $5.00 per unit per year, and setup cost is $150.00. (a) If the firm wishes to produce this product in economic batches, what size batch should be used? (b) What is the maximum inventory level? (c) How many order cycles are there per year? (d) What are the total annual holding and setup costs?
The student should produce in batches of 1,000 units, the maximum inventory level is 1,000 units, there are 12.5 order cycles per year, and the total annual holding and setup costs are $4,375.
Explanation:To solve the student's question, we can use the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model, which is a method used in business to determine the ideal order quantity a company should purchase to minimize its inventory costs. It’s a formula that allows you to calculate the ideal quantity of inventory to order for a given product.
(a) The size of the batch can be determined using the EOQ formula: EOQ = sqrt((2DS)/H), where D is demand, S is setup cost, and H is holding cost. Thus: EOQ = sqrt((2*12500*150)/5) = 1,000 units.
(b) The maximum inventory level is simply the EOQ, so 1,000 units.
(c) The number of cycles per year is equal to the annual demand divided by the EOQ: 12500/1000 = 12.5 order cycles per year.
(d) The total annual holding and setup costs can be calculated as follows: Total cost = D* (S/EOQ) + (EOQ/2)*H = 12500*(150/1000) + (1000/2)*5 = 1875 + 2500 = $4,375.

Final answer:
The optimal batch size for Montegut Manufacturing's economic production is approximately 866 units. The company's maximum inventory level and number of order cycles per year are 866 units and approximately 14.43, respectively. The total annual holding and setup costs amount to approximately $4,329.64.
Explanation:
The question involves calculating the economic order quantity (EOQ), maximum inventory level, number of order cycles per year, and total annual holding and setup costs for Montegut Manufacturing. To solve this, we will use the EOQ formula: EOQ = √((2DS)/H), where D is demand, S is setup cost, and H is holding cost.
(a) Using the provided data: D = 12,500 units/year, S = $150, and H = $5/unit/year, EOQ = √((2*12500*150)/5) = √(3750000/5) = √750000 ≈ 866 units.
(b) The maximum inventory level is the EOQ because that is the point right after production and before any demand has reduced the inventory, so it is 866 units.
(c) To find the number of order cycles per year, divide the total demand by EOQ: 12,500 units / 866 units/order ≈ 14.43 cycles/year.
(d) The total annual holding cost is (EOQ/2) * H, and the annual setup cost is (D/EOQ) * S. Therefore, total holding cost = (866/2) * 5 = $2,165, and total setup cost = (12500/866) * 150 ≈ $2,164.64. Adding them gives the total annual cost of $4,329.64 approximately.
The Finishing Department had 11,000 incomplete units in its beginning Work-in-Process Inventory which were 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs. 33,000 units were received from the previous department. The ending Work-in-Process Inventory consisted of 4,300 units which were 50% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs. The Finishing Department uses first-in, first-out (FIFO) process costing. How many units were transferred-out during the period? 44,000 units. 28,700 units. 26,300 units. 39,700 units.

What is the difference between revocable and irrevocable trust?
Answer:
Explanation:
A revocable trust is an agreement made by a person during his or her lifetime, naming a trustee and beneficiary. Trust resources must be moved to the trust with an adjustment in title of proprietorship. In this trust, trustor can terminate an aggrement at any point of time. Trust's assets are not protected from the trustor's creditors.
An irrevocable trust moves trust resources irreversibly into a trust, and the trustor can't alter or terminate the aggrement once made. Trust's assets are protected from the trustor's creditors under certain circumstances.
The key difference between a revocable trust and an irrevocable trust is that a revocable trust can be modified or terminated by the grantor during their lifetime, while an irrevocable trust cannot be easily changed once established.
Explanation:Difference Between Revocable and Irrevocable Trust
A trust is a crucial element in estate planning. Revocable and irrevocable trusts are two primary types of trusts that determine how assets are managed after one's death. With a revocable trust, the grantor (the person who creates the trust) maintains control over the trust assets during their lifetime. They may alter, amend, or completely revoke the trust as they see fit. Upon the grantor's death, a revocable trust usually becomes irrevocable, meaning that its terms can no longer be modified.
Conversely, an irrevocable trust, once created, typically cannot be changed or revoked by the grantor. This means that any assets placed within an irrevocable trust are no longer under the control of the grantor, and the trust's terms are set in stone, barring some exceptional circumstances. Additionally, because of this relinquishment of control, irrevocable trusts often provide certain tax advantages and asset protection benefits not available with revocable trusts.

Portfolio A has a beta of 1.0 and an expected return of 22%. Portfolio B has a beta of 2.0 and an expected return of 17%. The risk-free rate of return is 2%. Is there an opportunity for arbitrage: (Please explain your answer)
Answer:
Yes, there is an opportunity.
Explanation:
Beta is an indicator of the risk of any portfolio. The higher beta, the greater the risk. Therefore, the expected return of that portfolio should be higher.
Portfolio B has a higher Beta than portfolio A, but a lower expected return, so we say that the portfolio B is more expensive than it's value. So, there is an opportunity for arbitrage. You should sell the protfolio B and buy the portfolio A, and win the difference between both operations, with no risk.
Suppose that the government enacts a tax on retail sales of road salt, which homeowners and businesses put on walkways and driveways. Assume that the supply of salt is perfectly elastic, due to the ease with which suppliers can stockpile the product. Before the tax, 800 fifty-pound bags of road salt are sold at an equilibrium price of $5.5 per bag. After the tax, 775 bags are sold at $8 per bag. How much revenue does the tax generate for the government? $
The tax generates $62.50 in revenue for the government.
Revenue is the total income generated by a business or government through its sales, services, or other activities, reflecting its financial inflow and economic performance. It serves as a vital gauge of financial health and sustainability.
Given Information:
Before the tax = 800 fifty-pound bags of road salt sold at an equilibrium price of $5.5 per bag.After the tax = 775 bags sold at $8 per bag.Calculating the revenue generated by the tax is as follows:
The quantity reduction due to the tax = Initial quantity - New quantity
Quantity reduction = 800 bags - 775 bags
= 25 bags
The tax revenue = Quantity reduction × Tax rate
Tax revenue = 25 bags × ($8 - $5.5)
= 25 bags × $2.5
= $62.50
Therefore, the tax generates $62.50 in revenue for the government.

Using the Du Pont method, evaluate the effects of the following relationships for the Butters Corporation. a. Butters Corporation has a profit margin of 8 percent and its return on assets (investment) is 17.75 percent. What is its assets turnover? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. If the Butters Corporation has a debt-to-total-assets ratio of 30.00 percent, what would the firm’s return on equity be? (Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) c. What would happen to return on equity if the debt-to-total-assets ratio decreased to 25.00 percent? (Input your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Part a = 2.22 %
Part b = 25.36%
Part c = 23.67%
Explanation:
The Du Pont method is that method which defines the return on equity into three parts that includes gross profit margin, asset turnover, and financial leverage.
The profit margin and asset turnover show the relation with sales revenue whereas the financial leverage show a ratio of debt and shareholder equity.
a. Asset turnover : In duo Pont method,the asset turnover formula :
= Return on Assets ÷ Profit margin
= 17.75% ÷ 8%
= 2.22 %
b. The Return on equity is equal to
= Return on assets ÷ (1 - debt to total assets ratio)
= 17.75% ÷ (1-0.30)
= 25.36%
c. Applying same formula which is used in part b
Return on equity = Return on assets ÷ (1 - debt to total assets ratio)
= 17.75% ÷ (1 - 0.25)
= 17.75% ÷ 0.75
= 23.67%
Hence, Part a = 2.22 %
Part b = 25.36%
Part c = 23.67%
Final answer:
The asset turnover for Butters Corporation is 2.22, the return on equity (ROE) with a debt-to-total-assets ratio of 30.00 percent is 25.36%, and if the ratio decreases to 25.00 percent, the ROE would be 23.67%.
Explanation:
We are asked to examine the relationship between profitability ratios using the Du Pont method for the Butters Corporation. The Du Pont formula is a strategic way to look at two major determinants of return on equity (ROE): operational efficiency as measured by profit margin and asset use efficiency as indicated by asset turnover.
a. Calculating Asset Turnover:
The asset turnover can be calculated using the return on assets (ROA) formula, which is ROA = Profit Margin × Asset Turnover. Given that Butters Corporation has a profit margin of 8 percent and a ROA of 17.75 percent, we can derive the asset turnover by rearranging the formula: Asset Turnover = ROA / Profit Margin = 17.75% / 8% = 2.21875, which rounded to two decimal places is 2.22.
b. Calculating Return on Equity (ROE):
The return on equity can be calculated with the formula ROE = ROA / (1 - Debt-to-Total-Assets Ratio). Substituting the given values, ROE = 17.75% / (1 - 30.00%) = 17.75% / 0.70 = 25.36%, rounded to two decimal places is 25.36%.
c. Effect of a Decreased Debt-to-Total-Assets Ratio on ROE:
If the debt-to-total-assets ratio decreases to 25.00 percent, the ROE would then be recalculated as ROE = 17.75% / (1 - 25.00%) = 17.75% / 0.75 = 23.67%, so the new ROE would be 23.67% rounded to two decimal places.
A blue-ocean strategy: A). is an offensive strike employed by a market leader that is directed at pilfering customers away from unsuspecting rivals to boost profitability.B). involves an unexpected (out-of- the-blue) preemptive strike to secure an advantageous position in a fast-growing market segment.C). works best when a company is the industry's low-cost leader.D). involves abandoning efforts to beat out competitors in existing markets and instead invent a new industry or new market segment that renders existing competitors largely irrelevant and allows a company to create and capture altogether new demand.E). involves the use of highly creative, never-used-before strategic moves to attack the competitive weaknesses of rivals.
Answer: The correct answer is D).
Explanation: A blue ocean strategy is used to gain a broad and durable competitive advantage by abandoning existing markets and inventing a new market segment in which competitors are minimal and allow the company to meet a new demand.
A blue-ocean strategy, correctly identified as choice D, focuses on creating a new market space that makes existing competition irrelevant, diverging from traditional competitive methods of cost leadership or product differentiation.
Explanation:The question asks to identify which statement correctly defines a blue-ocean strategy. Among the provided options, choice D is accurate. A blue-ocean strategy involves creating a new industry or market segment that makes the competition irrelevant by inventing and capturing entirely new demand. This strategy is distinct from conventional competitive strategies that aim to outperform rivals within existing markets. By developing uncharted market spaces (blue oceans), companies avoid the fierce competition in overcrowded industries (red oceans) and open up avenues for growth and profitability that are not based on competing within the confines of existing industry boundaries.
Michael Porter's framework advises firms to either pursue cost leadership or product differentiation but cautions against trying to achieve both, as it may lead to being 'stuck in the middle'. This contrasts with a blue-ocean strategy, which essentially bypasses the need to compete directly with others by creating a new market space.

After the acquisition, Stone Corporation's shareholders own 20% of the Rock stock (by voting power and value). The transaction is classified as a:
Answer: the correct answer is Type C reorganization.
Explanation:
In a type “C” reorganization, substantially all of the target corporation's assets are exchanged for voting stock in the acquiring corporation.
A stock swap involves exchanging the shares of one company for shares of another company. In this scenario, Rock Corporation acquires all assets of Stone Corporation by offering its voting stock to the shareholders of Stone Corporation. The option (C) is correct.
After the acquisition, Stone Corporation's shareholders receive Rock Corporation's stock in exchange for their shares in Stone Corporation.
Since the transaction involves the exchange of stock and results in Stone Corporation's shareholders owning 20% of Rock Corporation's stock by both voting power and value, it qualifies as a stock swap. This type of transaction allows both companies to combine their resources and operations without the need for cash, potentially providing tax advantages and allowing for a smoother transition of ownership.

At the beginning of a recent year, JetBlue's assets were $6,549 million and its equity was $1,546 million. During the year, assets increased by $44 million and liabilities decreased by $64 million. What was JetBlue's equity at the end of the year
Answer:
Thus, the JetBlue's equity at the end of the year is $1,654 million
Explanation:
In this case, the accounting equation is used.
Accounting equation means the equation which shows double accounting entry system. Double accounting means debit side and credit side. In this accounting equation, the total assets is equal to total liabilities + total equity.
Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Equity
$6549 = Total Liabilities + $1,546
Total Liabilities = $5,003 million
In the question the assets is increased by $44 million whereas liabilities is decreased by $64 million.
So,
Updated asset value = $6,549+$44
= $6,593 million
Updated liabilities value = $5,003 - $64
= $4,939 million
So, the ending equity value will be
= Ending assets - Ending liabilities
= $6,593 million - $4,939 million
= $1,654 million
Thus, the JetBlue's equity at the end of the year is $1,654 million
Final answer:
JetBlue's equity at the end of the year can be calculated using the basic accounting equation. After accounting for the increase in assets and the decrease in liabilities, JetBlue's equity at the end of the year was found to be $1,654 million.
Explanation:
To calculate JetBlue's equity at the end of the year, we would use the accounting equation which is:
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
We are told that at the beginning of the year, JetBlue's assets were $6,549 million and its equity was $1,546 million. During the year, assets increased by $44 million and liabilities decreased by $64 million.
To find the new asset value at the end of the year, we add the increase to the initial asset value:
New Assets = Old Assets + Increase in Assets
New Assets = $6,549 million + $44 million = $6,593 million
Next, we need to adjust the liabilities. Since JetBlue's liabilities decreased, we subtract this decrease from the initial assets to find the initial liabilities using the rearranged accounting equation:
Initial Liabilities = Initial Assets - Initial Equity
Initial Liabilities = $6,549 million - $1,546 million = $5,003 million
Now, we find the new liabilities value:
New Liabilities = Initial Liabilities - Decrease in Liabilities
New Liabilities = $5,003 million - $64 million = $4,939 million
We use the accounting equation one last time to find the equity at the end of the year:
Equity at End of Year = Assets at End of Year - Liabilities at End of Year
Equity at End of Year = $6,593 million - $4,939 million = $1,654 million
Therefore, JetBlue's equity at the end of the year was $1,654 million.
Assuming that Intel needs to borrow money in the bond market to build a new chip-making factory, an increase in interest rates affects Intel's decision about whether to build the factory, because now the cost of borrowing money becomes ________.
Answer:
The cost of borrowing money becomes greater.
Explanation:
To borrow money from the bond the firm Intel needs to issue bonds. Then, it needs to pay interest on these bonds. This interest is the cost of borrowing.
When there is an increase in the interest rate in the market, the firm will be required to more interest. This increases the cost of borrowing from the bond market.
The returns from the new factory may not be able to cover this increased cost of borrowing. As a result the firm will be discouraged from borrowing.
Sell or Process Further Portland Lumber Company incurs a cost of $452 per hundred board feet (hbf) in processing certain "rough-cut" lumber, which it sells for $611 per hbf. An alternative is to produce a "finished cut" at a total processing cost of $559 per hbf, which can be sold for $748 per hbf. Prepare a differential analysis dated June 14, on whether to sell rough-cut lumber (Alternative 1) or process further into finished-cut lumber (Alternative 2).
Answer:
To compare each alternative, we have t compare the contribution margin ratio.
Aternative "rought-out" = 26.02%
For every 100 dollars of sales the company will keep $26.02 to pay the fixed cost and make a gain.
Alternative "finished cut" = 25.27%
For every 100 dollars of sales the company will keep $25.27 to pay the fixed cost and make a gain.
It is a better option to sell rought-out lumber
Explanation:
Aternative "rought-out"
611 sales
452 variable cost
[tex]Sales \: Revenue - Variable \: Cost = Contribution \: Margin[/tex]
[tex]\frac{Contribution Margin}{Sales Revenue} = $Contribution Margin Ratio[/tex]
611 - 452 = 159
159/611 = 26.0229132%
Alternative "finished cut"
748 sales
559 variable cost
[tex]Sales \: Revenue - Variable \: Cost = Contribution \: Margin[/tex]
[tex]\frac{Contribution Margin}{Sales Revenue} = $Contribution Margin Ratio[/tex]
748 - 559 = 189
189/748= 25.2673796%
