Answer:
a. Allocating cost using direct advertising costs
We have:
Cost allocated to New Cars = $60,000
Cost allocated to Used Cars = $48,000
Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000
b. Allocating cost using Newspaper ad space
We have:
Cost allocated to New Cars = $72,000
Cost allocated to Used Cars = $36,000
Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000
c. Allocating cost using Sales
We have:
Cost allocated to New Cars = $60,000
Cost allocated to Used Cars = $48,000
Cost allocated to Parts and Service = $12,000
Explanation:
Given:
New Cars Used Cars Parts and Service
Direct advertising costs $30,000 $24,000 $6,000
Newspaper ad space 60% 30% 10%
Sales $250,000 $200,000 $50,000
The costs allocated to each department can now be calculated as follows:
a. Allocating cost using direct advertising costs
The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:
Cost allocated to a department = (Direct advertising costs of the department / Sum of direct advertising costs of the 3 departments) * Indirect advertising costs ................... (1)
Using equation (1), we have:
Cost allocated to New Cars = ($30,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $60,000
Cost allocated to Used Cars = ($24,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $48,000
Cost allocated to Parts and Service = ($6,000 / ($30,000 + $24,000 +$6,000)) * $120,000 = $12,000
b. Allocating cost using Newspaper ad space
The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:
Cost allocated to a department = Percentage of Newspaper ad space of the department * Indirect advertising costs ................... (2)
Using equation (2), we have:
Cost allocated to New Cars = 60% * $120,000 = $72,000
Cost allocated to Used Cars = 30% * $120,000 = $36,000
Cost allocated to Parts and Service = 10% * $120,000 = $12,000
c. Allocating cost using Sales
The indirect advertising costs can be allocated using the following formula:
Cost allocated to a department = (Sales of the department / Sum of Sales of the 3 departments) * Indirect advertising costs ................... (3)
Using equation (3), we have:
Cost allocated to New Cars = ($250,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000 = $60,000
Cost allocated to Used Cars = ($200,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000 * $120,000 = $48,000
Cost allocated to Parts and Service = ($50,000 / ($250,000 + $200,000 + $50,000)) * $120,000 * $120,000 = $12,000

Q 10.7: Melbee Farms is considering purchasing a new combine that would help them finish their harvesting faster, thus allowing them to pick up extra revenue by doing custom combining for other farmers. The combine and headers cost $487,000. They expect to have net cash flows of $157,000 in year 1, $182,000 in year 2, $202,000 in year 3, and $213,000 in year 4. If they discount the cash flows by 7%, what is the discounted payback period for the combine
Answer:
Discounted payback period= 3 years 1 month
Explanation:
The discounted payback period is the estimated length of time in years it takes the present value of net cash inflow from a project to equate the net cash the initial cost
To work out the discounted payback period, we will compute present value of the cash inflow and then determine how long it will take for the sum to be equal to the initial cost. This is done as follows:
Year Cash flow DF Present value
0 487,000 × 1 = (487,000)
1 157,000 × 1.07^(-1) = 146,729.0
2 182,000 × 1.07^(-2) = 158965.8
3 202,000 × 1.07^(-3) = 164,892.2
4 213,000 × 1.07^(-4) =162,496.7
Total PV for 2 years = 146729 +158965+164892= 470587.0
Balance of cash flow remaining to equal = 487,000-470587 = 16413.0
Discounted payback period = 3 years + 16413.0 /162,496.7 × 12 months
= 3year , 1.2months
Discounted payback period= 3 years 1 month
Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge cola consumers a tax. Before the tax, 25 billion cases of cola were sold every year at a price of $5 per case. After the tax, 18 billion cases of cola are sold every year; consumers pay $6 per case (including the tax), and producers receive $3 per case.
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is ___________ $ per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is __________$ per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ____________$ per case.
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
$1
$2
false
Explanation:
A tax is a compulsory sum levied on goods and services by the government. Taxes increases the price of goods
Tax = amount consumers pay - amount producers receive
$6 - $3 = $3
Tax paid by consumers = Price after tax - tax before tax
$6 - $5 = $1
Amount received by producers = tax - tax paid by consumers
$3 - $1 = $2

Jerryworld, Inc., is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in Dallas to produce footballs. The company bought some land six years ago for $5.2 million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent these facilities from a competitor instead. If the land were sold today, the company would net $4.6 million. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $10.4 million to build, and the site requires $840,000 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction. What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project
Answer:
the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets is $15,840,000
Explanation:
The computation of the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets is shown below:
= (Net amount + cost of the plant + grading cost)
= ($4.6 million + $10.4 million + $0.84 million )
= $15,840,000
Hence, the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets is $15,840,000
Gartner Manufacturing Inc. purchases a component from a Malaysian supplier. The demand for that component is exactly 70 units each day. The company is open for business 250 days each year. When the company reorders the product, the lead time from the supplier is exactly 10 days. The product costs $14.00. The company determined that its inventory carrying cost is 20%. The company's order cost is $30.00. How many orders per year will be made, when using the EOQ
Answer:
Number of orders= 28.59 = 29 orders
Explanation:
Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the ideal order quantity a company should purchase to minimize inventory costs such as holding costs, shortage costs, and order costs.
Economic order quantity (EOQ)= √[(2*D*S)/H]
D= Demand in units
S= Order cost
H= Holding cost
D= 70*250= 17,500
S= $30
H= 14*0.2= $2.8
Now, using the formula:
EOQ= √[(2*17,500*30) / 2.8]
EOQ= √375,000
EOQ= 612.37 = 612
Finally, the number of orders:
Number of orders= total demand / EOQ
Number of orders= 17,500 / 612
Number of orders= 28.59 = 29 orders

Also, suppose that each country completely specializes in producing the good in which it has a comparative advantage. If Radioland trades 50 radios to Teeveeland in exchange for 50 televisions each year, then each country's maximum consumption of new radios and televisions per year will be
Answer:
450 radios 50 televisions in radioland and 50 radios 450 televisions in Teeveeland.
Explanation:
In radioland 5 radios are equivalent to one television. Then 1 radio will be equivalent to 0.2 of television. The opportunity cost for each radio is 0.2. In teeveeland the cost of 1 radio is 5 televisions. Hence radioland has comparative advantage in producing radios and Teeveeland has comparative advantage is producing televisions.

How much must the student save each year if he deposits the $10,000 today and can earn 12% on both the $10,000 and his earnings in a mutual fund his grandfather recommends
Answer:
Annual deposit= $2,984.69
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the Future Value of the lumpsum investment using the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 10,000*(1.12^4)
FV= $15,735.19
Now, the annual deposit to cover the difference:
Difference= 30,000 - 15,735.19= 14,264.81
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
Isolating A:
A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}
A= (14,264.81*0.12) / [(1.12^4) - 1]
A= $2,984.69

a. $_579,000____ to pay for the materials. Thus, the bank handling the transaction reduced Nevada’s account by this amount, denominated in
b. __dollars___( euros OR dollars). The bank then converted this amount to c. ___euros________ from d. ______dollars_____( euros OR dollars). and credited it to Spicurity’s account.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Importer = Nevada Co., a US-based MNC
Exporter = Spicurity, a German supplier
Amount of regular payments = 300,000 euros
Exchange rate = $1.93 per euro
Amount in dollars = $579,000 (300,000 euros * $1.93)
b) To convert to dollars from euro, when the exchange rate is $1.93 per euro, we multiply the euro-based amount by the exchange rate. To convert the dollars to the euro, we divide by the exchange rate. To multiply or divide depends on which currency has a higher value (e.g. euro vs dollars).
Find the final amount in the following retirement account, in which the rate of return on the account and the regular contribution change over time. $322 per month invested at 4%, compounded monthly, for 5 years; then 440$ per month invested at 5%, compounded monthly, for 5 years.
Answer:
Total value of the investment= $57,320.73
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the future value of the first part of the investment. We will calculate the future value for the monthly deposit for five years and then the lump sum for another five years.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
i= 0.04/12= 0.003333
n= 5*12= 60 months
FV= {322*[(1.003333^60) - 1]} / 0.003333
FV= $21,348.05
For the lump sum:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
n= 12*5= 60
i= 0.05/12= 0.004167
FV= 21,348.05*(1.004167^60)
FV= $27,397.75
Now, the future value of the second part of the investment:
n= 60
i= 0.0041667
A= 440
FV= {440*[(1.004167^60) - 1]} / 0.004167
FV= $29,922.98
Total value of the investment= 27,397.75 + 29,922.98
Total value of the investment= $57,320.73

Production= 5,800 + (6,500*0.3) - 1,740
Production= 6,010
The Buck Store is considering a project that will require additional inventory of $216,000 and will increase accounts payable by $181,000. Accounts receivable are currently $525,000 and are expected to increase by 9 percent if this project is accepted. What is the project's initial cash flow for net working capital
Answer:
$607,250 outflow
Explanation:
Net Working Capital is the amount of money needed to maintain operations on a day to day basis.
Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
where,
Current Assets are calculated as :
Inventory $216,000
Accounts Receivable ($525,000 x 1.09) $575,250
Total $788,250
and
Current Liabilities = $181,000
therefore,
Net Working Capital = $788,250 - $181,000 = $607,250
Conclusion
The project's initial cash flow for net working capital is $607,250 outflow.
Marcy wanted to buy Lucy's land and use it to breed small pigs to be kept as pets. Marcy told Lucy that having water on the property was very important. Lucy assured her that a spring ran through one corner of the property. Therefore, Marcy agreed to buy the farm. Although she did not ask Lucy anything about it, Marcy, who loved pigs, assumed that the neighbors would be pleased with the pigs being in the area. In a separate contract, Lucy also agreed to sell Marcy a used truck for $5,000. After the contract for the land sale was entered into, it was discovered that actually the spring did not run through the corner of Lucy's property. The area in which the spring ran actually belonged to a neighbor. Additionally, when Lucy brought Marcy the used truck, Marcy said, "That's not the truck!" It was discovered that Lucy, who had two trucks, thought that Marcy had bought the older truck when Marcy thought she had purchased the newer truck. Marcy was also surprised when she received a petition signed by all surrounding landowners objecting to the presence of the pigs and threatening to sue Marcy for nuisance. Which of the following would be the result if Marcy attempts to rescind the contract and recover damages only on the basis of the neighbors' objection to a pig farm?
