Windhoek Mines, Ltd., of Namibia

a. The net present value (NPV) of the proposed mining project is:

= -$117,258

b. No. The project should be rejected.  It has a negative NPV.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of new equipment and timbers = $370,000

Working capital required = $115,000

Cost to construct new roads in year three = $43,000

Annual net cash receipts = $130,000

Salvage value of equipment in four years = $68,000

Company's  required rate of return = 18%

Mining duration = 4 years

Annuity factor for 4 years at 18% = 2.1690

Relevant discount factors at 18%:

Year 3 = 0.712

Year 4 = 0.636

Present values of Cash Flows:

Tracey Sales Co. has predicted the following costs for this year for 500,000 units: Manufacturing Selling and Administrative Variable $ 800,000 $250,000 Fixed 1,200,000 300,000 Total $2,000,000 $550,000 What is the markup on variable manufacturing costs needed to break even

Answers

Answer: 218.75%

Explanation:

In order to breakeven, the variable manufacturing cost would have to be the same as the fixed costs in addition to the administrative costs.

= Fixed costs + Administrative cost

= 1,200,000 + 550,000

= $1,750,000

Variable cost needs to be $1,750,000

It is currently at $800,000 so it needs to increase by:

= 1,750,000 / 800,000 * 100%

= 218.75%

MC Qu. 116 CWN Company uses a job order costing... CWN Company uses a job order costing system and last period incurred $70,000 of actual overhead and $100,000 of direct labor. CWN estimates that its overhead next period will be $85,000. It also expects to incur $100,000 of direct labor. If CWN bases applied overhead on direct labor cost, its predetermined overhead rate for the next period should be:

Answers

Answer:

85%

Explanation:

With regards to the information above, predetermined overhead will be computed as;

Predetermined overhead = (Estimated overhead / Expected labor cost) × 100

Estimated overhead = $85,000

Expected labor cost = $100,000

Then,

Predetermined overhead = ($85,000 / $100,000) × 100

Predetermined overhead = 85%

Therefore, its predetermined overhead rate for the next period should be 85%

A game has a saddle point when the maximin payoff value equals the minimax payoff value. true or false

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

To answer this question, I'll use the following illustration.

Minimax = <10,18,15>

Maximax = <8,4,10>

The payoff of the minimax is 10 (i.e. the smallest) and the payoff of the maximax is 10 (i.e. the largest)

Both payoffs are equal; hence, 10 is the saddle point.

A TV manufacturing company uses speakers at the rate of 8000/mo. When it places an order for speakers it incurs a fixed cost of $1200. The monthly interest rate for keeping a speaker in stock is assessed at 1%/mo. The cost of the speaker depends on the order size. If less than 1000 speakers are ordered the cost is $11 each. When the order size is between 1000 and 10,000 the cost is $10.50/unit. For order sizes between 10,000 and 30,000 the cost is $10 per unit. For order quantities between 30,000 and 80,000 the cost drops to $9.50. Beyond 80,000 the cost is $9.25. Determine the optimum order size and time between orders if shortages are not allowed.

During June, Cisco Company produced 12,000 chainsaw blades. The standard quantity of material allowed per unit was 1.5 pounds of steel per blade at a standard cost of $8 per pound. The actual cost was $7 per pound. The actual pounds of steel that Cisco purchased were 19,500 pounds. All materials purchased were used. Calculate Cisco's materials usage variance.

Answers

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance= $12,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

To calculate the direct material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:

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

Direct material quantity variance= (1.5*12,000 - 19,500)*8

Direct material quantity variance= (18,000 - 19,500)*8

Direct material quantity variance= $12,000 unfavorable

You run a hospital with 100 rooms. Fixed daily cost is $935.00 which includes staff salary, property charges, maintenance etc. Variable cost per room is $10.00 which includes cleaning, equipment rentals, utility cost etc. which is incurred only when the room is full. You charge $77.00 per room per day. You sold 40.00 rooms today, how much profit/loss did you earn for today.

Answers

Answer: $1,745

Explanation:

Profit ( loss) = Sales -  Fixed costs - Variable costs

Sales = Rate per room * number of rooms rented

= 77 * 40

= $3,080

Variable costs = 40 * 10 per room

= $400

Profit (loss) = 3,080 - 935 - 400

= $1,745

The management of Penfold Corporation is considering the purchase of a machine that would cost $360,000, would last for 10 years, and would have no salvage value.

The net present value of the proposed project is closest to (Ignore income taxes.):

Answers

Answer:

the  net present value is -$72,050

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below

= $50,000  per year ×PVIFA factor at 10 years for 9% - $360,000

= $50,000 ×5.7590  - $360,000

= $287,950 - $360,000

= -$72,050

hence, the  net present value is -$72,050

So the same should be relevant and considered too

Giannitti Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated machine-hours for the upcoming year. Data for the upcoming year appear below:
Estimated machine-hours 72,900
Estimated variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.50 per machine-hour
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead 838,710
The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to:________.
A. $6.66 per machine-hour
B. $10.50 per machine-hour
C. $8.69 per machine-hour
D. $15.00 per machine-hour

Answers

Answer:

D. $15.00 per machine hour

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year is seen below;

First, we will calculate the fixed overhead rate.

Fixed overhead rate = Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead / Estimated machine - hours

Fixed overhead rate = $838,710 / 72,900

Fixed overhead rate = $11.50

Then,

Predetermined overhead rate = Fixed overhead rate + Variable overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate = $11.50 + $3.50

Predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to $15.00 per machine hour

The Molding Department of Boswell Company has the following production data: beginning work process 40,000 units (60% complete), started into production 730,000 units, completed and transferred out 690,000 units, and ending work in process 80,000 units (40% complete). Assuming conversion costs are incurred uniformly during the process, the equivalent units for conversion costs are:

Answers

Answer: 770,000 units

Explanation:

The Equivalent units for Conversion cost is calculated as:

= Total units completed and transferred out + Equivalent units of closing work in process

As the conversion costs were incurred uniformly during the process, the entire closing work in process would have already incurred conversion cost. Conversion cost closing equivalent units are therefore 80,000 units.

Equivalent units for Conversion cost = 690,000 + 80,000

= 770,000 units

University Car Wash built a deluxe car wash across the street from campus. The new machines cost $270,000 including installation.

Actual use per year was as follows: Year Hours Used 1 3,100 2 1,100 3 1,200 4 2,800 5 2,600 6 1,200 2. Prepare a depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.

Answers

Answer:

Year       Depreciation expenses

  1                        $90,000

 2                        $60,000

 3                        $40,000

 4                        $26,667

 5                        $17,778

 6                        $11,556

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.

The double-declining-balance method is a depreciation approach in which the rate of depreciation for an asset is twice the rate of depreciation for the straight line method.

In the attached excel, the double-declining-balance depreciation rate is therefore calculated as follows:

Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Number of expected useful years = 1 / 6 = 0.166666666666667 = 16.6666666666667%

Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = 16.6666666666667% *2 = 33.3333333333334%

Also note the following in the attached excel file:

Beginning depreciable amount in Year 1 = Cost of the new machine = $270,000

The depreciation expenses for Year 6 is calculated by deducting the residual value of $24,000 from Year 6 Beginning depreciable amount. That is:

Depreciation expenses for Year 6 = $35,556 - $24,000 = $11,556

The residual value of $24,000 therefore represents the book value at the end of Year 6.

From the attached excel file, we therefore have:

Year       Depreciation expenses

  1                        $90,000

 2                        $60,000

 3                        $40,000

 4                        $26,667

 5                        $17,778

Answers

Answer:

b. $(2,767).

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below:

= Present cash flows - initial investment

= ($11,600 × 3.0373) - $38,000

= $35,232.68 - $38,000

= -$2,767.32

= -$2,767

Hence, the option b is correct

We simply applied the above formula to determine the net present value

Should the firms' overseas operations be judged by the standards (legal, economic, cultural, and moral) of the country in which it is operating or should they be judged by the standards of the U.S. market?

Answers

Answer: Standards of the country they operate in

Explanation:

Various countries have differing norms on what is legally, socially, morally and culturally acceptable. In order to be able to operate in those countries, companies would have to adapt to these requirements in order to maximize business operations.

It would therefore be illogical to judge these overseas operations in terms of the U.S. market which would be different from them. They should be judged on their own merit and then a standardizing factor can be used to relate them to the U.S. market to see whether they are performing well given their unique circumstances.
