Assume that it is January 1, 2019, and that the Mendoza Company is considering the replacement of a machine that has been used for the past 3 years in a special project for the company. This project is expected to continue for an additional 5 years (i.e., until the end of 2023). Mendoza will either keep the existing machine for another 5 years (8 years total) or replace the existing machine now with a new model that has a 5-year estimated life. Pertinent facts regarding this decision are as follows:
Keep Existing Machine Purchase New Machine
Purchase price of machine (including transportation, setup charges, etc.) $ 150,000 $ 190,000
Useful life (determined at time of acquisition) 8 years 5 years
Estimated salvage value, end of 2023* $ 20,000 $ 25,000
Expected cash operating costs, per year:
Variable (per unit produced/sold) $ 0.25 $ 0.19
Fixed costs (total) $ 25,000 $ 24,000
Estimated salvage (terminal) values:
January 1, 2019 $ 68,000
December 31, 2023 $ 12,000 $ 22,000
Net working capital committed at time of acquisition of existing machine (all fully recovered at end of project, December 31, 2023) $ 30,000
Incremental net working capital required if new machine is purchased on January 1, 2019 (all fully recovered at end of project, December 31, 2023) $ 10,000
Expected annual volume of output/sales (in units), over the period 2019–2023 500,000 500,000
*Note: These amounts are used for depreciation calculations.
Assume further that Mendoza is subject to a 40% income tax, both for ordinary income and gains/losses associated with disposal of machinery, and that all cash flows occur at the end of the year, except for the initial investment. Assume that straight-line depreciation is used for tax purposes and that any tax associated with the disposal of machinery occurs at the same time of the related transaction.
Required:
1. Determine relevant cash flows (after-tax) at time of purchase of the new machine (i.e., time 0: January 1, 2019).
2. Determine the relevant (after-tax) cash inflow each year of project operation (i.e., at the end of each of years 1 through 5).
3. Determine the relevant (after-tax) cash inflow at the end of the project's life (i.e., at the project's disposal time, December 31, 2023).
5. Determine the undiscounted net cash flow (after tax) for the new machine and determine whether on this basis the old machine should be replaced.

True or False: Efficiency wages are higher-than-average wages that are intended to reduce the chances that workers engage in non-productive behavior that might jeopardize their high-paying job. True False

Answers

Answer: True

Explanation:

The motivations of employees are both financial and non-financial with a high salary considered to be a financial motivation. Employers will pay employees a higher wage so as to motivate them to be more productive at work. This is called an efficiency wage because it increases the productivity of employees by motivating them more.

When workers are being paid such a high salary in relation to the average salary in the market, they would want to ensure that they keep getting paid this huge salary so they will try to avoid non-productive behavior that would lead to them losing their jobs.

XYZ produces a single product and has provided the following data for its most recent month of operations:

Number of units produced 6,400
Variable costs per unit:
Direct materials $72
Direct labor $80
Variable manufacturing overhead $10
Variable selling and administrative expense $12
Fixed costs:
Fixed manufacturing overhead $224,000
Fixed selling and administrative expense $288,000

There were no beginning or ending inventories. The absorption costing unit product cost was: ____________-

Answers

Answer: $197

Explanation:

With absorption costing, the fixed manufacturing costs are absorbed by the products which means that the product cost will include fixed costs related to manufacturing.

The absorption costing unit product cost is therefore:

= Direct materials + Direct Labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing Overhead per unit

Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit is:

= 224,000 / 6,400 units

= $35 per unit

Absorption cost unit product cost = 72 + 80 + 10 + 35

= $197

Suppose you invest $210,000 in an annuity that returns 6 annual payments, with the first payment one year from now and each subsequent payment growing by 5%. At an interest rate of 8%, how much is the first annual payment you receive?

Answers

Answer:

$40,510.82

Explanation:

Present value = $210,000

Number of annual payments (n) = 6

Growth rate (g) = 5% or 0.05

Interest rate (r) = 8% or 0.08

Amount of first annual payment = [Present value * (r - g)] / [1 - {(1 + g)/(1 + r)}^n]

Amount of first annual payment = [210,000 * (0.08-0.05)] / [1 - [(1+0.05) / (1+0.08)]^6]

Amount of first annual payment = [210,000*0.03] / [1 - (0.972222)^6]

Amount of first annual payment = 6,300 / [1 - 0.844486]

Amount of first annual payment = 6,300 / 0.155514

Amount of first annual payment = 40510.82217678151

Amount of first annual payment = $40,510.82

So, the amount of the first annual payment you will receive is $40,510.82.

Suppose that the price of labor is $7 for a firm, while the price of capital for a firm is $10. Also suppose that the Marginal Product of Labor is 20, while the Marginal Product of Capital is 30. What is the best advice for this profit-maximizing firm?

Answers

Answer:

The best advice for this profit-maximizing firm is:

Use more capital than labor.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Price of labor = $7

Price of capital = $10

Marginal product of labor = 20

Marginal product of capital = 30

Productivity of labor = Output/Input

= 20/7

= 2.86

Productivity of capital = Output/Input

= 30/10

= 3

b) Capital is more productive than labor.  The productivity of capital is 3 when compared to the productivity of labor, that is 2.86.

Answers

Answer:

he percentage increase in purchasing power that the lender receives on a loan.

Explanation:

Interest rate is the rate earned on deposits or the rate charged on loans.

Interest rate could be real or nominal

Nominal interest rate is real interest rate plus inflation rate

Real interest rate is interest rate that has been adjusted for inflation

The higher the real interest rate, the higher the increase in purchasing power of the lender

"Rogue Corp. has sales of​ $4,250,000; the​ firm's cost of goods sold is​ $2,500,000; and its total operating expenses are​ $600,000. The​ firm's interest expense is​ $250,000, and the corporate tax rate is​ 40%. What is​ Rogue's tax​ liability"

Answers

Answer:

$360,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine Rogue's tax​ liability

Step 1 is to calculate the gross profit

Using this formula

Gross profit=Sales - Cost of Goods Sold

Let plug in the formula

Gross profit=$4,250,000-$2,500,000

Gross profit=$1,750,000

Step 2 is to calculate operating income

Using this formula

Operating income=Gross Profit -Total operating expenses

Let plug in the formula

Operating income=$1,750,000-$600,000

Operating income=$1,150,000

Step 3 is to calculate the EBT

Using this formula

EBT=Operating income - Interest expense

Let plug in the formula

EBT=$1,150,000-$250,000

EBT=$900,000

Now let calculate the Tax liability

Using this formula

Tax liability=EBT x Corp Tax

Let plug in the formula

Tax liability=$900,000*$40%

Tax Liability=$360,000

Therefore Rogue's tax​ liability is $360,000

Suppose that France and Denmark both produce oil and olives. Frances’s opportunity cost of producing a crate of olives is 4 barrels of oil, while Denmark’s opportunity cost of producing a crate of olives is 7 barrels of oil.
By comparing the opportunity cost of producing olives in the two countries, you can tell that _______has a comparative advantage in the production of olives and ______has a comparative advantage in the production of oil.
Suppose that France and Denmark consider trading olives and oil with each other. France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than _____ of oil for each crate of olives it exports to Denmark. Similarly, Denmark can gain from trade as long as it receives more than _____ of olives for each barrel of oil it exports to France.
Based on your answer to the last question, which of the following terms of trade (that is, price of olives in terms of oil) would allow both Denmark and France to gain from trade?
A__ 6 barrels of oil per crate of olives
B__ 3 barrels of oil per crate of olives
C__ 5 barrels of oil per crate of olives
D__ 8 barrels of oil per crate of olives

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, one can deduce that while (France) has a comparative advantage in the production of olives, it should be noted that on the other hand, (Denmark) has a comparative advantage in the production of oil.

If France and Denmark consider trading olives and oil with each other, then France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than (4) of oil for each crate of olives it exports to Denmark while on the other hand, Denmark can gain from trade as long as it gets more than (1/7) crate of olives for each barrel of oil it exports to France.

The terms of trade that would allow both Denmark and France to gain from trade include:

• 6 barrels of oil per crate of olives.

• 5 barrels of oil per crate of olives.

Answers

Answer:

Department M

The number of equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June if the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories is:

a. 11,350 units

Explanation:

Beginning work in process units = 3,000

Degree of completion = 59%

Work to be done during June on the beginning WIP = 1,230 units (3,000 * 41%)

Units started and completed during June = 9,800 Units (12,800 - 3,000)

Ending work in process, equivalent units = 320 (1,000 * 32%)

Total equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June, using the FIFO method are = 11,350 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct materials standard (4 lbs. $2 per lb.)= $8 per finished unit

Actual direct materials used (AQ)= 300,000

Actual finished units produced= 60,000

Actual cost of direct materials used= $535,000

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (2 - 1.783)*300,000

Direct material price variance= $65,100 favorable

Actual price= 535,000 / 300,000= $1.783

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (4*60,000 - 300,000)*2

Direct material quantity variance= $120,000 unfavorable

The Wood Valley Dairy makes cheese to supply to stores in its area. The dairy can make 250 pounds of cheese per day (365 days per year), and the demand at area stores is 180 pounds per day. Each time the dairy makes cheese, it costs $125 to set up the production process. The annual cost of carrying a pound of cheese in a refrigerated storage area is $12. Determine the optimal order size and the minimum total annual inventory cost.

Answers

Answer: 1. 1170 units

2. $14039

Explanation:

The optimal order size will be:

= ✓2AO/C

where,

A = Annual demand = 180 × 365 days = 65,700

O = Ordering cost = 125

C = Carrying cost = 12

EOQ = ✓(2AO/C)

= ✓(2 × 65700 × 125/12)

= ✓ 1368750

= 1170 units

Therefore, the optimal order size is 1170 units.

2. The minimum total annual inventory cost will be calculated as:

C = (Q /2)(H) +(D/Q)(S)

where,

Q = 1170 pounds

H = holding cost = $12

D = annual demand = 65,700

S =set up cost = $125

Therefore, the minimum total annual inventory cost will be:

C = (Q /2)(H) +(D/Q)(S)

C = {(1170) /2] × 12} + {(65,700 /1170) × 125}

= 7020 +7019

= 14,039

Therefore, the minimum total annual inventory cost is $14,039.

b. the semi strong - it posits that market prices consists of all publicly available information

c. the strong form - it submits that market prices reflects both publicly and privately available information. As a result, excess returns cannot be earned consistently through insider trading
