Berry Bloom Co is getting ready for Mother's Day and needs to purchase bouquets of flowers which will be sold prior to the holiday. Due to the high demand leading up to Mother's Day, the bouquets of flowers are sold at $20/bouquet. However, after the holiday, the bouquets can only be sold at $10/bouquet. The bouquets of flowers are purchased at $15/bouquet. Berry Bloom Co wants to perform an analysis to determine how many bouquets should be procured in preparation for Mother's Day. This type of problem is called the Group of answer choices Economic Order Quantity Problem Nonlinear Optimization Problem Newsvendor Problem Discriminant Analysis Problem
Answer:
Berry Bloom Co.
This type of problem that requires Berry to perform an analysis to determine how many bouquets of flowers to procure in preparation for Mother's Day is a:
Newsvendor Problem.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price of bouquets of flowers = $20/bouquet
Cost price of bouquets of flowers = $15/bouquet
Profit per bouquet during Mother's Day = $5 ($20 - $15)
After-holiday selling price of the bouquets of flowers = $10/bouquet
Loss per bouquet of flower after the holiday = $5 ($15 - $10)
b) The Newsvendor model describes the challenges facing Berry Bloom as it gets ready for the Mother's Day holiday. The company must decide the volume of bouquets of flowers to procure prior to the holiday. The purchase decision becomes a problem because the demand for flowers is not certain, and the company is aware that unsold bouquets will be sold at a loss of $5 per bouquet after the holiday.
Sheila and Jim live in an island where they are the only two workers. Sheila can either catch 10 fish or gather 40 pounds of berries each day, and Jim can either catch 8 fish or gather 24 pounds of berries each day. Both of them work 200 days per year. At current world prices 1 fish trades for 3.5 pounds of berries. Who has the comparative advantage in producing berries
Answer:
SHEILA
Explanation:
A person has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other people.
Sheila's opportunity cost in producing berries = 10/40 = 0.25
Jim's opportunity cost in producing berries = 8/24 = 0.33
Sheila has a lower opportunity cost in the production of berries and thus has a comparative advantage in the production of berries
Russell Retail Group begins the year with inventory of $65,000 and ends the year with inventory of $55,000. During the year, the company has four purchases for the following amounts. Purchase on February 17 $ 220,000 Purchase on May 6 140,000 Purchase on September 8 170,000 Purchase on December 4 420,000 Required: Calculate cost of goods sold for the year.
Answer:
COGS= $960,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Beginning inventroy= $65,000
Ending inventory= $55,000
Total Purchase= 220,000 + 140,000 + 170,000+ 420,000= $950,000
To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:
COGS= beginning inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending inventory
COGS= 65,000 + 950,000 - 55,000
COGS= $960,000
You expect to receive a payout from a trust fund in 3 years. The payout will be for $10,200. You plan to invest the money at an annual rate of 6.2 percent until the account is worth $17,800. How many years do you have to wait from today
Answer:
n= 12.25 years
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Present value= $10,200
Future value= $17,800
Interest rate= 6.2%
First, we need to calculate the number of years it will take the investment to reach $17,80. We need to use the following formula:
n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)
n= ln(17,800/10,200) / ln(1.062)
n= 9.25 years
Now, the total number of years:
n= 9.25 + 3
n= 12.25 years

YZ Company is rethinking the way it ships to its 62 customers in another city 220 miles away.
Current Shipping/Delivery Method
They currently hire an LTL (less-than-truckload) carrier to pick up and deliver these shipments. Each customer order shipped via LTL carrier costs $147.
Alternate Shipping/Delivery Method
A 3PL (third-party logistics provider) has approached XYZ Company and suggested that they make full truckload (TL) shipments from their facility to the 3PL's warehouse in the customers' city. The 3PL would then break the bulk shipment (TL or truckload shipment) into individual customer orders to be shipped locally by an LTL carrier. The relative data for this alternate shipping method are as follows:
Full TL shipment cost (220 miles) = $675
Average order weight = 750 lbs.
Warehouse break-bulk fee (per 100 lbs., a.k.a. per "hundred weight") = $13
Local LTL delivery fee = $36
1. What is the total cost of delivering to all customers via LTL carrier (current method
R=_______.
2. How much money would XYZ company save by using the alternate shipping/delivery method?
R=______.
3. At what number of customers would the cost of these two methods be the same?
R=______.
Answer:
1. Total cost of customer order shipped via LTL carrier is $9,114.
2. XYZ company would save $162 by using the alternate shipping/delivery method.
3. The cost of these two methods would be the same when the number of customers is approximately 6.
Explanation:
To ease answering the question, let us first the define as follows:
N = Number of customers = Number of Order
A = Each customer order shipped via LTL carrier costs = $147
B = Average order weight = 750
C = Warehouse break-bulk fee per hundred weight = 13
D = Total cost of weight = ((N * B) / 100) * C
E = Local LTL delivery fee = $36
F = Total Local LTL delivery fee = N * E
G = Full TL shipment cost (220 miles) = 675
H = Total cost of shipping using 3PL = D + F + G
I = Total cost of customer order shipped via LTL carrier = N * A
J = Difference between the cost of the two methods = I - H
1. What is the total cost of delivering to all customers via LTL carrier (current method
This can be calculated using E above as follows:
Total cost of customer order shipped via LTL carrier = E = N * A = 62 * $147 = $9,114
2. How much money would XYZ company save by using the alternate shipping/delivery method?
From the definitions above, we have:
N = Number of orders = 62
D = Total cost of weight = ((N * B) / 100) * C = ((62 * 750) / 100) * 13 = $6,045
F = Total Local LTL delivery fee = N * E = 62 * 36 = $2,232
G = Full TL shipment cost (220 miles) = $675
H = Total cost of shipping using 3PL = D + F + G = $6,045 + $2,232 + $675 = $8,952
I = Total cost of customer order shipped via LTL carrier = $9,114
J = Difference between the cost of the two methods = I - H = $9,114 - $8,952 = $162
Therefore, XYZ company would save $162 by using the alternate shipping/delivery method.
3. At what number of customers would the cost of these two methods be the same?
H = Total cost of shipping using 3PL = D + F + G = (((N * B) / 100) * C) + (N * E) + G ............ (1)
Substituting all the relevant value into equation (1), we have:
H = (((N * 750) / 100) * 13) + (N * 36) + 675
I = N * 147
Equating H and I and solve for N, we have:
(((N * 750) / 100) * 13) + (N * 36) + 675 = N * 147
((N0.01 * 7.50) * 13) + 675 = N147 - N36
(N0.075* 13) + 675 = N111
N0.975 + 675 = N111
675 = N111 - N0.975
N110.025 = 675
N = 675 / 110.025
N = 6.13496932515337.
By approximating to a whole number since we are talking about human being, we have:
N = 6
At what number of customers would
Therefore, the cost of these two methods would be the same when the number of customers is approximately 6.

A $64,000 machine with a 6-year class life was purchased 2 years ago. The machine will now be sold for $50,000 and replaced with a new machine costing $82,000, with a 10-year class life. The new machine will not increase sales, but will decrease operating costs by $9,000 per year. Simplified straight line depreciation is employed for both machines, and the marginal corporate tax rate is 34 percent. What is the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project
Answer:
$6,779
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project
First step is to calculate the depreciation
Depreciation=[($64,000/6 years)-($82,000/10 years)
Depreciation=$10,667-$8,200
Depreciation=$2,467
Now let calculate the Incremental annual cash flow
Incremental annual cash flow ={($9,000-$2,467)
-[($9,000-$2,467)*34%]+$2,467}
Incremental annual cash flow =[($6,533-$2,221)+$2,467]
Incremental annual cash flow =$4,312+$2,467
Incremental annual cash flow=$6,779
Therefore the incremental annual cash flow associated with the project is $6,779
With perfect price discrimination, the marginal revenue curve
A) is equal to the demand curve.
B) is below the demand curve. C) is above the demand curve.
D) is horizontal.
Answer: b
Explanation: Because the monopolist must lower the price on all units in order to sell additional units, marginal revenue is less than price. Because marginal revenue is less than price, the marginal revenue curve will lie below the demand curve.

Job 412 was one of the many jobs started and completed during the year. The job required $9,500 in direct materials and 35 hours of direct labor time at a total direct labor cost of $10,400. If the job contained four units and the company billed at 70% above the unit product cost on the job cost sheet, what price per unit would have been charged to the customer
Answer:
The appropriate answer is "$8,457,50".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Direct material cost,
= $9,500
Direct labor cost,
= $10,400
Units completed in job 412,
= 4
Now,
The total cost for completion of job 412 will be:
= [tex]Direct \ materials \ cost + Direct \ labor \ costs[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
= [tex]9,500 + 10,400[/tex]
= [tex]19,900[/tex] ($)
Unit produced cost will be:
= [tex]\frac{19,900}{4}[/tex]
= [tex]4,975[/tex] ($)
70% of unit produced cost will be the profit margin, then
= [tex]70 \ percent\times 4,975[/tex]
= [tex]3,482.50[/tex] ($)
hence,
The price charged to the customer will be:
= [tex]Unit \ product \ cost + Profit \ margin[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
= [tex]4,975 + 3,482.50[/tex]
= [tex]8,457,50[/tex] ($)

How much rent is allocable to the assembly department using the direct method of allocation
Answer:
$404,800
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much rent is allocable to the assembly department using the direct method of allocation
Using this formula
Rent =Area used by Assembly department / Total Area used by Manufacturing Departments x Total Rent paid
Let plug in the formula
Rent =36,850/ (36,850+30,150) x $736,000
Rent=36,850/67,000*$738,000
Rent=0.55*$736,000
Rent= $404,800
Therefore How much rent is allocable to the assembly department using the direct method of allocation is $404,800

Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021, is:
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021 would be calculated as;
Step 1
= $413,000 × 1%
= $413,000 × 0.01
= $4,130
Step 2
= $3,000 - $3,690
= ($690)
Step 3
= $4,130 + ($690)
= $4,130 - $690
= $3,440
Therefore, Rahal's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2020 is $3,440
Adkins Bakery uses the modified half-month convention to calculate depreciation expense in the year an asset is purchased or sold. Adkins has a calendar year accounting period and uses the straight-line method to compute depreciation expense. On March 17, 2018, Adkins acquired equipment at a cost of $220,000. The equipment has a residual value of $43,000 and an estimated useful life of 4 years. What amount of depreciation expense will be recorded for the year ending December 31, 2018
Answer:
Depreciation expense= $36,875
Explanation:
Under the straight line method of depreciation, the cost of an asset less the salvage value is spread equally over the expected useful life.
An equal amount is charged as annual depreciation over the life of the asset. The annual depreciation is calculated as follows:
Annual depreciation:
= (cost of assets - salvage value)/ Estimated useful life
Cost - 220,000
Residual value = 43,000
Estimated useful life = 4 years
Annual depreciation = (220,000- 43,000)/4 =44,250
Annual depreciation = 44,250.
Under the half-month convention, a full month depreciation is charged where an asset is first put to at the middle month of the month.
Thus March 17, 2018 to December 2018 is taken to be 10 full months
Depreciation expense = 44,250.× 10/12 = 36,875
Depreciation expense= $36,875

SH= Standard Hours
AR= Actual Rate
SR= Standard Rate
(1) Compute the direct materials price and quantity variances
(2) Compute the direct labor rate and efficiency varian rect labor rate and efficiency variances.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
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= (5.75 - 5.8)*31,000
Direct material price variance= $1,550 unfavorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (63,000*0.5 - 31,000)*5.75
Direct material quantity variance= $2,875 favorable
To calculate the direct labor rate and efficiency variance, we need to use the following formulas:
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (10,500 - 10,600)*21.5
Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $2,150 unfavorable
Standard quantity= (10/60)*63,000= 10,500 hours
Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity
Direct labor rate variance= (21.5 - 20.5)*10,600
Direct labor rate variance= $10,600 favorable
Actual rate= 217,300 / 10,600= $20.5

Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
CLIFF CONSULTING
Contribution Income Statement
For the Year Ended September 30
Sales revenue $ 1,200,000
Variable costs
Cost of services $ 480,000
Selling and administrative 60,000 540,000
Contribution margin 660,000
Fixed Costs -selling and administrative 440,000
Before-tax profit 220,000
Income taxes (21%) 46,200
After-tax profit $ 173,800
Break-even point in sales revenue = Fixed costs/Contribution margin ratio
= $440,000/0.55
= $800,000
Annual margin of safety = normal sales revenue minus break-even sales revenue
= $1,200,000 - $800,000
= $400,000
Contribution margin ratio = contribution margin/sales revenue * 100
= $660,000/$1,200,000 * 100 = 55%
If fixed costs increases by $80,000, the break-even point in sales revenue
= ($440,000 + $80,000)/0.55 = $520,000/0.55 = $945,455
To achieve after-tax net income of $250,000, the required dollar sales revenue:
Net income after-tax = $250,000
Tax rate = 21%
Net income before tax = $250,000/1-21%
= $250,000/0.79 = $316,456
Sales dollars to achieve target profit = (Fixed costs + Target Profit/1 - 0.21)/Contribution margin
= ($440,000 + ($250,000/0.79))/0-55
= ($440,000 + $316,456)/0.55
= $756,456/0.55
= $1,375,375
Abbreviated Contribution Income Statement
Sales revenue $1,375,375

After-tax income is equivalent to $250,000
A firm is operating in the United States with only two other competitors in the industry. a. It is likely this industry would be characterized as: multiple choice 1 monopolistically competitive. perfectly competitive. oligopoly. pure monopoly. b. Firms in this industry will likely earn: multiple choice 2 a normal profit. an economic profit. an economic loss. c. If foreign firms begin supplying the product, increasing the number of competitors, it is likely that: multiple choice 3 economic profits will fall.
Answer:
a. oligopoly.
b. an economic profit.
c. economic profits will fall.
Explanation:
An oligopoly can be defined as a market structure comprising of a small number of firms (sellers) offering identical or similar products, wherein none can limit the significant influence of others.
Hence, it is a market structure that is distinguished by several characteristics, one of which is either similar or identical products and dominance by few firms.
The characteristics of an oligopolistic market structure are;
I. Mutual interdependence between the firms.
II. Market control by many small firms.
III. Difficult entry to new firms.
Hence, a firm operating in the United States of America with only two other competitors in the industry is likely to be an industry that would be characterized as oligopoly.
Additionally, business firms operating in this industry (oligopolistic market) will likely earn an economic profit. Also, if foreign business firms begin supplying the product, increasing the number of competitors, it is likely that economic profits will fall because the industry is now being competitive and controlled by other business firms.
In economics, market structure refers to how different industries are distinguished depending on the degree and form of product and services rivalry. It's based on the features that influence the outcomes and behaviors of businesses in a given market.
a) An oligopoly is a business that operates in the United States with only two other competitors in the same industry.
Reason:
An oligopoly is a market structure with a small number of enterprises and high entry barriers. A competitive environment in which there are just a few vendors reveals to be Oligopoly because there are only two competitors available in the business.
b) Oligopolistic businesses will almost certainly make an economic profit.
Reason:
In an oligopoly, all firms would have to work together to raise prices and make a bigger profit. The bulk of oligopolies form in industries where goods are essentially homogeneous and give essentially the same advantage to customers.
c) Economic earnings are expected to diminish or fall if international enterprises begin to supply the product, increasing the number of competitors.
Reason:
As the supply curve changes to the right, the market price begins to fall, and as a result, existing and new enterprises' economic earnings fall. Due to the entry of new enterprises, which pulls down the market price, economic profit is zero in the long term.

Money can be used to pay your current debts at a later date since $100 will still be $100 in the future. They might lose some of its value due to inflation, but they do not spoil or rot, and will probably be accepted in the future. imagine trying to pay an old debt with rotten tomatoes or an old cow.
TB MC Qu. 8-199 The Puyer Corporation makes and sells ... The Puyer Corporation makes and sells only one product called a Deb. The company is in the process of preparing its Selling and Administrative Expense Budget for next year. The following budget data are available: Monthly Fixed Cost Variable Cost Per Deb Sold Sales commissions $ 0.90 Shipping $ 1.40 Advertising $ 50,000 $ 0.20 Executive salaries $ 60,000 Depreciation on office equipment $ 20,000 Other $ 40,000 All of these expenses (except depreciation) are paid in cash in the month they are incurred. If the company has budgeted to sell 17,000 Debs in March, then the average budgeted selling and administrative expenses per unit sold for March is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: $10
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total budgeted selling and administrative expenses for March which will be:
Advertising = $50,000
Add: Executive salaries = $60,000
Add: Depreciation on office equipment = $20,000
Add: Other = $40,000
Total = $170,000
Since the company has budgeted to sell 17,000 Debs in March, then the average budgeted selling and administrative expenses per unit sold for March is:
= $170000 / 17000
= $10
Jake's Sound Systems has 210,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a market price of $36 a share. Last month, Jake's paid an annual dividend in the amount of $1.593 per share. The dividend growth rate is 4%. Jake's also has 6,000 bonds outstanding with a face value of $1,000 per bond. The bonds carry a 7% coupon, pay interest annually, and mature in 4.89 years. The bonds are selling at 99% of face value. The company's tax rate is 34%. What is Jake's weighted average cost of capital
Answer:
WACC = 6.92%
Explanation:
total equity = 210,000 x $36 = $7,560,000,weight of equity = 56%
cost of equity:
36 = 1.65672 / (Re - 4%)
Re = 8.602%
total bonds = $5,940,000, weight of bonds = 44%
bond YTM = 7.24%
after tax cost = 7.24% x 66% = 4.78%
WACC = (.56 x 8.602$) + (.44 x 4.78%) = 4.817 + 2.103 = 6.92%
YTM = (70 + 10/4.89) / (1990/2) = 72.04 / 995 = 7.24%

Answer:
Correct words to finish the sentences:
Fish in the ocean can be caught by anyone, and it is difficult to prevent people from fishing, in this sense, fish in the oceans are__non-excludable___.
If I catch a fish, that means there is one less fish in the sea for someone else to catch. Therefore, fish are__rivalrous___.
Considering those two characteristics, fish in the ocean are_common goods___.
Explanation:
The two key characteristics of a public good are: it is non-excludable and non-rivalrous. A common good is non-excludable but rivalrous. A private good is excludable and rivalrous. A club good is excludable and non-rivalrous.
Non-excludable refers to goods that are costly and impossible for a person to exclude other users from using the goods.
Non-rivalrous good refers to goods that a person can use without preventing others from using the goods.
Let T1 be the time between a car accident and reporting a claim to the insurance company. Let T2 be the time between the report of the claim and payment of the claim. The joint density function of T1 and T2, f(t1, t2), is constant over the region 0 < t1 < 6, 0 < t2 < 6, t1 t2 < 10, and zero otherwise. Determine E[T1 T2], the expected time between a car accident and payment of the claim.
Answer:
5.7255
Explanation:
From the given information:
[tex]T_1 \to \text{time between car accident \& reporting claim} \\ \\ T_2 \to \text{time between reporting claim and payment of claim}[/tex]
The joint density function of [tex]T_1[/tex] and [tex]T_2[/tex] is:
[tex]f(t_1,t_2) = \left \{ {{c \ \ \ 0<t_1<6, \ \ \ 0<t_2<6, \ \ \ t_1+t_2<10} \atop {0} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ otherwise} \right.[/tex]
Area(A): [tex]= 6\times 6 - \dfrac{1}{2}*2*2[/tex]
= 34
The limits are:
[tex]\text{limits of } \ t_1 \ from \ 0 \ is \ 10 \to t_2 \\ \\ \text{limits of } \ t_2 \ from \ 0 \ is \ 4 \to 6[/tex]
Also;
[tex]\text{limits of } \ t_1 \ is \ 0 \to 6 \\ \\ \text{limits of } \ t_2 \ is \ 0 \to 4[/tex]
∴
[tex]\iint f(t_1,t_2) dt_1dt_2 =1 \\ \\ c \iint 1dt_1dt_2 = 1 \\ \\ cA = 1 \\ \\ \implies c = \dfrac{1}{34}[/tex]
To find;
[tex]E(T_1+T_2) = \iint (t_1+t_2)c \ \ dt_1dt_2 \\ \\ \implies \dfrac{1}{34} \Big[\int \limits^4_0 \int \limits^6_0(t_1+t_2) dt_1 \ dt_2 + \int \limits^6_4 \int \limits^{10-t_2}_0(t_1+t_2) dt_1 dt_2 \Big] \\ \\ \implies \dfrac{1}{34} (120 + \dfrac{224}{3}) \\ \\ = \mathbf{5.7255}[/tex]

Calculate the company's WACC. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) WACC %
Answer:
8.19%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the company's WACC
First step is to calculate the CAPM rate of equity
Using this formula
CAPM rate of equity = Risk free rate + market risk premium * beta
Let plug in the formula
CAPM rate of equity=3.75%+(11.7%-3.75%)*0.93
CAPM rate of equity=11.14%
Second step is to calculate the DDM rate of equity
Using this formula
DDM rate of equity= Expected dividend next year/Price today + Growth rate
Let plug in the formula
DDM rate of equity=3/64.8+5.3%
DDM rate of equity=9.93%
Third step is to calculate the Cost of equity using this formula
Cost of equity = Average of CAPM and DDM
Let plug in the formula
Cost of equity=(11.14%+9.93%)/2
Cost of equity= 10.54%
Fourth Step is to calculate the Cost of debt (after tax)
Cost of debt (after tax) using financial calculator to compute YTM
PV -1047.5
FV 1000
PMT 1000*6.5%/2 32.5
N 22*2 44
Compute I 3.05%
YTM =3.05%*2 6.10%
Tax rate = 23%
Hence,
Rate of debt (after tax) = 6.1%*(1-23%)
Rate of debt (after tax) = 4.70%
Fifth step is to calculate the Rate of preferred stock using this formula
Rate of preferred stock = Annual dividend/Current price
Let plug in the formula
Rate of preferred stock=4.65/94.3
Rate of preferred stock=4.93
Sixth step is to calculate the Weight
Market value
Source
equity 240000*64.8= 15552000
debt 1047.5*9300= 9741750
preferred stock 8300*94.3=782690
Total 26076440
equity 15552000/26076440= 59.64%
debt 9741750/26076440=37.36%
preferred stock 782690/ 26076440=3.00%
Now let calculate compute WACC
WACC= weight * cost
equity 59.64%*10.54%=6.28%
debt 37.36%* 4.70% =1.76%
preferred stock3.00%*4.93%=0.15%
WACC = 8.19%
(6.28%+1.76%+0.15%)
Therefore the company's WACC is 8.19%
You are comparing two companies in the same industry. You have determined that Gore Corp. depreciates its plant assets over a 40-year life, whereas Ross Corp. depreciates its plant assets over a 20-year life. Discuss the implications this has for comparing the results of the two companies.
Answer:
Gore Corp. is depreciating over a longer term than Ross Corp. This means that on a yearly basis, they will have less depreciation expenses. This would give them a higher net income than Ross Corp but as a result they will then have to pay a higher tax.
Ross Corp on the other hand will be depreciating over a shorter term so this would mean that they are recognizing a higher depreciation expense per year. This would mean that their net income will be lower and by extension their taxes will be lower as well.
