Assume market interest rates have risen substantially in the 5 years since an investor purchased Treasury bonds that were offering a 3% return over their 15-year life. If the investor sells now, he or she is likely to realize a total return that is:__________
A. greater than 6%.
B. less than 6%.
C. equal to 2%.
D. equal to 6%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: B. less than 6%.

Explanation:

Market interest rates have risen since the investor purchased the treasury bonds which means that the treasury bonds will be less sought after now because they offer a lower return than can be found in the market even if risk adjusted.

The investor will therefore only be able to sell it for a lower price which means that they will receive a lower rate for it. As we cannot say for certain what this rate will be, it is best to say that it will be under 6%.

Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 46,000 units per month is as follows:

Per Unit Direct materials $45.60
Direct labor $8.70
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.70
Fixed manufacturing overhead $18.50
Variable selling & administrative expense $3.00
Fixed selling & administrative expense $14.00

The normal selling price of the product is $98.10 per unit.

An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,600 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $1.80 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.

Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.

Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas customer and accepting the special order would require cutting back on production of 1,000 units for regular customers. The minimum acceptable price per unit for the special order is closest to: __________

Answers

Answer:

Ash Corporation

The minimum acceptable price per unit for the special order is closest to:

= $94.93.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Normal production capacity per month = 46,000 units

Per Unit

Direct materials                                            $45.60

Direct labor                                                     $8.70

Variable manufacturing overhead                 $1.70

Fixed manufacturing overhead                   $18.50

Variable selling & administrative expense  $3.00

Fixed selling & administrative expense     $14.00

The normal selling price of the product = $98.10 per unit.

Special order = 2,600 units

Relevant costs:

Direct materials                                            $45.60

Direct labor                                                     $8.70

Variable manufacturing overhead                 $1.70  

Variable selling & administrative expense   $1.20

Total relevant costs per unit                      $57.20

Total variable cost for the special order = $148,720 ($57.20 * 2,600)

Loss sales revenue (1,000 * $98.10)              98,100

Total cost for the special order =             $246,820

Minimum acceptable price per unit = $94.93 ($246,820/2,600)

Standard fixed overhead rate (per direct labor hour) $2.50
Budgeted fixed overhead $65,000
Actual fixed overhead costs $68,300
Actual hours worked 26,350

Required:
a. Calculate the fixed overhead spending variance using the formula approach.
b. Calculate the volume variance using the formula approach.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Fixed overhead Spending Variance is

= Budgeted Fixed Overhead - Actual Fixed overhead

= $65000 - $68300

= - $3300 (unfavorable)

b.

Fixed Overhead Volume Variance is

= (131000 × 0.20 × $2.50) - $65000

=$65500 - $65000

= $500 Favorable

In this way these can be determined

In the short run, open-market purchases a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates. b. increase real GDP and interest rates, and decrease investment. c. increase investment and interest rates, and decrease real GDP. d. decrease investment, interest rates, and real GDP.

Answers

Answer: a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates.

Explanation:

During an Open Market Purchase, the central bank of the country would be buying back securities from the public which means that it would be infusing money into the economic system.

With an increased amount of money in the economy, people will be able to save more which means that interests rate will drop because there are now more loanable funds. This drop in interest rates will encourage more companies and people to borrow cash for investment which will then lead to a higher GDP.

In the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.

The interest rate has been the amount of interest lent onto the principal sum. The GDP has been the gross domestic product that has been the market value of the final products.

In the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in the amount of money in the market. The government has been buying the securities and results in the market flow of money. The market flow will eventually result in an increase in the GDP with the decreased interest rates.

Thus in the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.

K Company estimates that overhead costs for the next year will be $2,967,000 for indirect labor and $860,000 for factory utilities. The company uses direct labor hours as its overhead allocation base. If 86,000 direct labor hours are planned for this next year, how much overhead would be assigned to a product requiring 6 direct labor hours

Answers

Answer:

$267.00

Explanation:

First and foremost, it should be borne in mind that the overhead per direct labor hour is the total forecast overhead costs for next year divided by the planned direct labor hours, in essence, we simply determine plantwide overhead allocation rate, which is the basis for determining the amount of direct to be assigned to 6 direct labor hours

plantwide overhead allocation rate=(indirect labor overhead+factory utilities)/planned direct labor

indirect labor overhead cost=$2,967,000

factory utilities=$860,000

planned direct labor hours=86,000

plantwide overhead allocation rate=($2,967,000+$860,000)/86000

plantwide overhead allocation rate=$44.50

overhead allocation to a product requiring 6 direct labor hours=6*$44.50

overhead allocation to a product requiring 6 direct labor hours=$267.00

c) $50,000 dividend and a tax basis in each of her remaining shares of $100.
d) $25,000 capital gain and a tax basis in each of her remaining shares of $500.

Answers

Answer:

d) $25,000 capital gain and a tax basis in each of her remaining shares of $500.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the tax consequences to Pam as a result of the stock redemption

Using this formula

Capital gain = Total amount - Tax basis

Let plug in the morning

Capital gain = (50 * $1,000) - ($500 * 50)

Capital gain = $50,000 - $25,000

Capital gain = $25,000

Since the Capital gain is $25,000 which means that The tax basis will be income tax basis in each share of $500 for the remaining 50 shares.

Therefore the the tax consequences to Pam as a result of the stock redemption will be:$25,000 capital gain and a tax basis in each of her remaining shares of $500.

A company has two segments with total sales of $500,000 and total variable costs of $343,750. Traceable fixed expenses are $50,000 and common fixed expenses are $80,000. The break even in dollars for the company as a whole equals $ _______. (Enter your answer as a whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

$416,000

Explanation:

The computation of the break even in dollars for the company is given below:

Total fixed expenses = Traceable fixed expenses + Common fixed expenses

= $50,000 + $80,000

= $130,000

Now  

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales - Variable costs) ÷Sales × 100

= ($500,000 - $343,750) ÷ $500,000 × 100

= 31.25%

Now

Break-eve dollars = Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $130,000 ÷ 31.25%

= $416,000
