AutoEdge hires a new economic analyst who decides to compute marginal profit for each product line. What might cause AutoEdge to stop producing a certain auto part erroneously?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

AutoEdge will stop producing a certain auto part when its marginal profit becomes zero.

Explanation:

Marginal profit is the difference between the marginal cost of production and marginal revenue earned from the sale of the same. Marginal profit is supposed to occur when an additional unit of product or auto part is sold.

When these increment in profit stops, then the economic analyst at AutoEdge knows that it is time to stop producing additional units of the auto part. This is because increasing output no longer tends towards profit.

The new economic analyst at AutoEdge will advise management to stop increasing production when its marginal cost is equal to its marginal revenue because at that point the profit is maximized. This point where MC=MR is also the point where Marginal Profit equals zero.

This is called Shut Down point. Beyond this point, the marginal profit of the firm becomes negative. Hence any production activity carried out at this point will be termed erroneous.

Cheers

Lucy has decided to save for a vacation in 18 months. She will save the money into a short-term investment account returning 4% annually. How much will she have to put away at the beginning of each month if the vacation cost is $15,000

Answers

Answer:

Monthly deposit= $810.20

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of periods (n)= 18 months

Interest rate (i)= 0.04/12= 0.0033

Future value (FV)= $15,000

To calculate the monthly deposit, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (15,000*0.0033) / [(1.0033^18) - 1]

A= $810.20

A company's fixed costs are $1,500,000, the unit selling price is $250, and the unit variable costs are $130. The amount of sales required to realize an operating income of $200,000 is Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 14,167 units

Explanation:

Target sales is the amount of sales a company has projected itself to sell within a particular period.

Target sales(in units) =

(Fixed cost + target income) / contribution margin

Where contribution margin is sales in unit minus variable costs

($1,500,000 + $200,000) / $250 - $130

$1,700,000/$120

=14,167 units

Therefore, 14,167 units is the amount of sales that will need to be recorded to generate an operating income of $200,000

Required: Compute the company’s plantwide predetermined overhead rate for the year. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $13.84 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (521,000 / 44,000) + 2

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 11.84 + 2

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $13.84 per direct labor hour

b.) $715,390.47
c.) $530,230.59
d.) $1,009,963.02

Answers

Answer:

a.) $841,635.85

Explanation:

The value of the Treasury note is the present value of its future cash flows, its semiannual coupon payments and the face value receivable by the investors in the T-note at maturity.

Semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate*6/12

face value=$1,000,000

coupon rate=6%

semiannual coupon=$1,000,000*6%*6/12

semiannual coupon=$30,000( there would 8 semiannual coupons in 4 years)

The present value of the cash flows can be determined using a financial calculator bearing in mind that the calculator would be set to its default end mode before making the following inputs:

N=8(semiannual coupons)

PMT=30000(amount of each semiannual coupon)

I/Y=5.50%(semiannual yield to maturity=11.00%*6/12)

Ramble On Co. wishes to maintain a growth rate of 13.6 percent per year, a debt-equity ratio of 1.8, and a dividend payout ratio of 30 percent. The ratio of total assets to sales is constant at .98. What profit margin must the firm achieve

Answers

Answer: 5.99%

Explanation:

Based on the question,

Dividend payout ratio = 30%

Therefore, the retention ratio will be:

= 1 - 30%

= 70%

Growth rate = 13.6%

We'll the use the sustainable growth rate formula which will be:

0.136 = (ROE x 0.7)/ (1-(ROE x 0.7))

0.136(1 - (0.7ROE)) = 0.7ROE

ROE = 0.136/0.7952

ROE = 0.171026

Then, the Profit margin will be:

ROE = Profit Margin x Asset Turnover x Equity multiplier

0.171026 = PM x (1/0.98) x (1 + 1.8)

0.171026 = PM x (1/0.98) x 2.8

PM = 0.171026 x 0.98/2.8

PM = 0.0598591

Profit margin = 5.99%

Consider two stocks, A and B. Stock A has an expected return of 10% and a beta of 1.2. Stock B has an expected return of 14% and a beta of 1.8. The expected market rate of return is 9% and the risk-free rate is 5%. Security __________ would be considered the better buy because

Answers

Answer:

B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%

Explanation:

Here are the options :

A; it offers an expected excess return of .2%A; it offers an expected excess return of 2.2%B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%B; it offers an expected return of 2.4%

to determine which stock is the better buy, we have to calculate the expected return of the stocks using CAPM

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

Stock A = 5% + 1.2(9% - 5%) = 9.8%

Stock B = 5% + 1.8(9% - 5%) = 12.20%

The next step is to determine the excess return

stated expected return - calculated expected return = excess return

Stock A's excess return = 10% - 9.8% - 0.2%

Stock B's excess return = 14 - 12.20 = 1.8%

Security B would be considered because it has a higher excess return

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

We need to calculate the number of units to be sold to maintain a profit of $175,000.

Unitary variable cost= $3

Fixed expenses= $350,000

Selling price= $7

Net income= total contribution margin - fixed cost

175,000= number of units*(7 - 3) - 350,000

525,000 = number of units*4

Answers

Answer:

FV= $804,326.91

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit (A)= $100

Interest rate (i)= 0.092/12= 0.0077

Number of periods= 45*12= 540 months

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {100*[(1.0077^540) - 1]} / 0.0077

FV= $804,326.91

b. $32,000
c. $34,800
d. $37,400

Answers

Answer:

Billed costs= $32,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total estimated cost attorney= 12*100,000= $1,200,000

Total estimated cost paraprofessional= 5*30,000= $150,000

Estimated Indirect costs= $250,000

Estimated number of hours= 50,000

First, we need to calculate the allocation rate:

Allocation rate= total estimated costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Allocation rate=   (1,200,000 + 150,000 + 250,000) / 50,000

Allocation rate= 1,600,000/50,000

Allocation rate= $32

Now, for 1,000 hours:

Billed costs= 1,000*32= $32,000

   iv) 337.5

B) i) ( NS ) =  100[(1-0.6)w]^2

   ii)  w = 2.372 , N = 90

   iii) y = 426.91

   iv)  85.839

Explanation:

Given data :

Production function ( y ) =  9k^0.5 N^0.5

MPN = 4.5k^0.5N^-0.5

capital stock ( K ) = 25

labor supply curve ( NS ) = 100[ (1-t) w]^2

assume P = 1

a) Determine

i) equation of labor demand curve =  w/P = MPN

where; w = 22.5 N^-0.5 , N=506.25/(w^2)

labor supply curve ( NS ) = 100[ (1-t) w]^2

ii) equilibrium levels of real wage and employment

506.25/(w^2) = 100[(1-t)w]^2   ( equilibrium condition )

w ( equilibrium level of real wage ) = 1.5

equilibrium level of employment  = 100[(1-t)w]^2 ; where t = 0 , w = 1.5

                                                  = 100 ( 1 * 1.5 )^2

                                               N = 225

iii) level of full-employment  y = 9k^0.5 N^0.5 ; where N = 225 , k = 25

                                                =  9(25)^0.5 * (225)^0.5

                                               y  = 675

iv) Total after-tax wage income of workers

     =  w*N = ( 225 * 1.5 ) = 337.5

B) assuming t = 0.6

i) equation of labor demand curve

labor supply curve ( NS ) =  100[(1-0.6)w]^2  = 16 w^2

ii) equilibrium levels ; 16w^2 = 506.25/(w^2).

w( equilibrium real wage ) = 2.372

Equilibrium employment ( N )=  16 * ( 2.372 )^2 =90

iii) level of full employment y = 9k^0.5 * 90^0.5

                                                = 9(25)^0.5 * 90^0.5 = 426.91

You sell 25,000 loaf of bread per year. The carrying cost associated the main ingredient wheat flour is estimated to be $8 per unit (amount used for 1 loaf of bread) per year, and the ordering cost is $10 per order. And assume 1 year is 300 days and lead time is 3 days.

Required:
a. What is the EOQ?
b. How much money you will lose if you order 300 units of wheat flour? Calculate the total cost of inventory with EOQ model and with order size is 300. The difference will give you the answer.
c. Calculate the re-order point (assuming no uncertainty)?

Answers

Answer:

Annual Demand (D) = 25000

Carrying Cost (H) = 8

Ordering Costs (S) = 10

Number of working days = 300

Lead Time (Lt) = 3 days

a. EOQ = Sqrt (2*D*S/H)

EOQ = Sqrt (2*25000*10/8)

EOQ = Sqrt (62500)

EOQ = 250

b. Total Cost = (D * S) / EOQ + (EOQ * H) / 2

Total Cost = (25000 * 10) / 250 + (250 * 8) / 2

Total Cost = 1000 + 1000

Total Cost = 2000

Now, we calculate total Cost with order size: of 300

Total Cost = (25000 * 10) / 300 + (300 * 8) / 2

Total Costs = 833.3333 + 1200

Total Cost = 2,033.3333

The amount to lost if we order 300 units of wheat flour is as follows

= 2033.33 - 2000

= $33.33

3. ROP = (D / Number of working days) x Lt

ROP = (25000 / 300) * 3

ROP = 83.3333 * 3

ROP = 249.9999

ROP = 250
