If we had a situation of Diminishing Marginal Productivity, then this would be great news for the firm. Senior management loves this kind of cost reduction outcome.

True or False

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is the second option: False.

Explanation:

To begin with, the well known term of "Diminishing Marginal Productivity" is understood to be an economic law whose main purpose is to explain that given a certain level of an input, the production of the company will start to go down eventually after adding more and more of that variable. Therefore that this theory states that when a company adds more of a factor of production, everything else constant, when it reaches a certain level that input will start to affect the output of the good and with it the profits of the business. That is why that if the company is in a situation of diminishing marginal productivity the senior management would not be pleased.

Steelcase Inc. (SCS) is one of the largest manufacturers of office furniture in the United States. In Grand Rapids, Michigan, it assembles filing cabinets in an Assembly Department. Assume the following information for the Assembly Department: Direct labor per filing cabinet 18 minutes Supervisor salaries $250,000 per month Depreciation $18,500 per month Direct labor rate $28 per hourRequired:Prepare a flexible budget for 70,000, 80,000, and 90,000 filing cabinets for the month ending February 28 in the Assembly Department.

Answers

Answer:

Total department cost of 70,000 units = $856,500

Total department cost of 80,000 units = $940,000

Total department cost of 90,000 units = $1,024,500

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the flexible budget.

A flexible budget is a budget that changes, flexes or adjusts as the volume, activity or unit of production changes.

For this question, the direct labor cost for each unit can be calculated as follows:

Direct labor time per filing cabinet in minutes = 18

Number of minutes in one hour = 60

Direct labor rate per minute = Direct labor rate per hour / Number minutes in one hour = $28 / 60 = $0.466666666666667

Direct labor cost per filing cabinet = Direct labor time per filing cabinet in minutes * Direct labor rate per minute = 18 * $0.466666666666667 = $8.40

Direct labor cost of a particular units of production = Direct labor cost per filing cabinet * Number of units of production ................... (1)

Using equation (1), the Direct labor cost of different units of production used in the attached excel file is calculated as follows:

Direct labor cost of 70,000 units = $8.40 * 70,000 = $588,000

Direct labor cost of 80,000 units = $8.40 * 80,000 = $672,000

Direct labor cost of 90,000 units = $8.40 * 90,000 = $756,000

Find the operating cash flow for the year for Harper​ Brothers, Inc. if it had sales revenue of ​, cost of goods sold of ​, sales and administrative costs of ​, depreciation expense of ​, and a tax rate of .

Answers

Answer:

$101,960,000

Explanation:

For the computation of operating cash flow first we need to follow some steps which are shown below:-

Step 1

EBIT = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Sales and administrative costs - Depreciation

= $302,100,000 - $135,900,000 - $39,600,000 - $65,000,000

= $61,600,000

Step 2

Net income = EBIT - Tax

= $61,600,000 - ($61,600,000 × 40%)

= $61,600,000 - $24,640,000

= $36,960,000

and finally

Operating cash flow = EBIT - Taxes + Depreciation

= $61,600,000 - $24,640,000 + $65,000,000

= $101,960,000

Dinklage Corp. has 7 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $68, and the book value per share is $8. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $70 million, a coupon rate of 6 percent, and sells for 97 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $40 million, a coupon rate of 6.5 percent, and sells for 108 percent of par. The first issue matures in 21 years, the second in 6 years. Suppose the most recent dividend was $3.25 and the dividend growth rate is 5 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 21 percent. What is the company’s WACC?

Answers

Answer:

WACC = 8.98%

Explanation:

total value of equity = $68 x 7,000,000 = $476,000,000

cost of equity:

$68 = $3.4125 / (rrr - 5%)

rrr - 5% = 5.02%

rrr = 10.02%

total value of debt:

$70 million x 0.97 = $67,900,000

YTM = {60 + [(1,000 - 970)/21]} / [(1,000 + 970)/2] = 61.43 / 985 = 6.24%

$40 million x 1.08 = $43,200,000

YTM = {65 + [(1,000 - 1,080)/6]} / [(1,000 + 1,080)/2] = 51.67 / 1,040 = 4.97%

weighted cost of debt = ($67,900,000 / $111,100,000 x 6.24%) + ($43,200,000 / $111,100,000 x 4.97%) = 3.81% + 1.93% = 5.74%

total value of the firm = $476,000,000 + $67,900,000 + $43,200,000 = $587,100,000

equity weight = $476,000,000 / $587,100,000 = 0.81076

debt weight = 1 - 0.81076 =  0.18924

WACC = (0.81076 x 10.02%) + (0.18924 x 5.74% x 0.79) = 8.12% + 0.86 = 8.98%

Purple Panda Products Inc. is considering a project that will require $650,000 in assets. The project will be financed with 100% equity. The company faces a tax rate of 30%. Assuming that the project generates an expected EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) of $170,000, then Purple Panda’s anticipated ROE (return on equity) for the project will be:

a. 14.65%
b. 18.31%
c. 11.90%
d. 10.99%

Answers

Answer:

18.31%

Explanation:

Purple panda products incorporation has a shareholder's equity of $650,000

The tax rate is 30%

=30/100

= 0.3

The EBIT is $170,000

The first step is to calculate the net income

Net income= EBIT - tax

= $170,000-(0.3×170,000)

= $170,000-51,000

= 119,000

Therefore, the ROE can be calculated as follows

ROE= Net income/shareholder's equity

= 119,000/650,000

= 0.1831×100

= 18.31%

Hence the ROE is 18.31%

On November 1, Alan Company signed a 120-day, 8% note payable, with a face value of $9,000. What is the maturity value (principal plus interest) of the note on March 1

Answers

Answer:

$9,240

Explanation:

Computation of Maturity Value of the note

First step is to find the interest amount using this formula

Interest amount=(Face value *Note payable)*Numbers of days to signed/Numbers of days in a year

Let plug in the formula

Interest Amount = ($9,000*8%)*120/365

Interest amount = $720 * 120 / 360

Interest amount=720*0.33333

$240

Next step is to calculate for the Maturity value using this formula

Maturity Value = Face value +Interest amount

Let plug in the formula

Maturity value =$9,000 + $240

Maturity value = $9,240

Therefore the maturity value of the note on March 1 will be $9,240

"A customer has an existing margin account that shows the following: Long Market Value: $50,000 Debit Balance: $30,000 The market value declines to $30,000, the customer is sent a maintenance call, which the customer wishes to meet by depositing fully paid stock. The amount of stock that must be deposited is:"

Answers

Answer:

The amount of stock that must be deposited is $10,000.

Explanation:

Generally, the minimum margin is 25% of the Debit Balance. This implies that the account of the customer will receive a maintenance call for 25% of $30,000 which is $7,500 as a cash deposit.

Note that a maintenance call refers to a call to request a customer to provide additional funds when the market value of securities in his margin account has fallen below an established minimum.

However, the customer can decide to deposit other fully paid stock to meet the maintenance call of $7,500 instead of depositing cash. The minimum market value of securities needed in the account can be calculated by dividing the Debit balance by 75%, i.e.

Minimum market value of securities needed = $30,000 / 75% = $40,000

Since there is a $30,000 worth of securities already in the account, the customer will have to deposit additional $10,000 worth of securities, i.e.:

The amount of stock that must be deposited = Minimum market value of securities needed - Debit balance = $40,000 - $30,000 = $10,000

Therefore, the amount of stock that must be deposited is $10,000.

Suppose that we have the following information concerning the government's finances and the macroeconomy for a given year: Government Debt: $12 trillion Inflation: 10% Nominal Deficit: $1.5 trillion What is the real deficit for the year

Answers

Answer: $300 billion

Explanation:

The real deficit that a Government has is one that has been adjusted for inflationary effects. It is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate times the total debt from the nominal deficit.

= Nominal deficit - (Inflation rate * Total debt)

= 1.5 trillion - ( 10% * 12 trillion)

= 1.5 trillion - 1.2 trillion

= $300 billion

a. Estimate Kroger's cost of equity capital.
b. Estimate Kroger's weighted-average cost of capital. Prepare a spreadsheet or table showing the relevant variables.

Answers

Answer:

a. 11.16 %

b. 7.56 %

Explanation:

Cost of equity capital is the return that is required by Common Stockholders.

This can be determined as follows :

1. Growth Model

Cost of equity = Recent dividend / Market Price of Share + Expected Growth Rate

or

2. Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)

Cost of equity = Return on Risk Free Security + Beta × Return on Market Portfolio Security

                       = 4.54% + 1.05 × 6.30%

                       = 11.16 %

WACC = Ke × (E/V) + Kd × (D/V) +Kp × (P/V)

Explanation and value of Variables

Ke = Cost of Equity

     = 11.16 %

E/V = Weight of Equity

      = $ 4,965 ÷ ( $ 4,965 + $ 6,674)

      = 42.66 %

Kd = Cost of Debt :

    = Interest × (1 - tax rate)

    = 7.50% × ( 1 - 0.35)

    = 4.875 or 4.88 %

D/V = Weight of Debt

      = $ 6,674 ÷ ( $ 4,965 + $ 6,674)

      = 57.34 %

Therefore,

WACC = 11.16 % × 42.66 % + 4.88 % × 57.34 %

           = 7.56 %

As the workforce becomes more diverse, why does performance appraisal become a more difficult process?

Answers

Answer:

Performance appraisal in a company with diverse workforce becomes difficult because of some cultural biases that may exist between the manager, who is doing the appraisal, and the diverse workforce.  This problem becomes more acute if the manager is culturally biased and discriminatory by practise.

Explanation:

Company A can have a diverse workforce if it is made up of employees from culturally different places working together in the same workplace.  Bias often arises due to human cultural nuisances.  This becomes more obvious where managers are from some particular cultures while the employees are from mixed cultures.  In such situations, the managers need to be retrained to enable them embrace cultural diversity in the workplace and in performance evaluation.

The key cause due to which the performance appraisal becomes problematic due to diversity in the workforce would be:

- Cultural bias

What is performance appraisal?

Performance appraisal is described as the process of reviewing the performances done by the employees in a particular organization to attain its goals and reward them accordingly.

When the workforce of a particular company or organization becomes exceedingly diverse, it becomes problematic to do performance appraisals.

The reason behind this is that this diversity gives rise to cultural biases and may result in discrimination.

A bond pays a semiannual coupon, and the last coupon was paid 61 days ago. If the annual coupon payment is $75, what is the accrued interest

Answers

Answer:

$12.57

Explanation:

Calculation for the accrued interest

Calculate the predetermined overhead rate for 2020, assuming Lott Company estimates total manufacturing overhead costs of $ 882,000, direct labor costs of $735,000, and direct labor hours of 21,000 for the year.


Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Company estimates total manufacturing overhead costs of $882,000 and, direct labor costs of $735,000

To calculate the predetermined 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= 882,000/735,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar
