Answer:
Jiffy Park Corp.
Cash Conversion Cycle:
a. Prior to proposed changes:
CCC = 169 days
b. After implementing changes:
CCC = 129 days
c. The change in CCC is 40 days
d. It is significant. It is about 24% reduction in the CCC. It is equal to the days that payable are outstanding under the proposed plan.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current annual sales = $50,736,000
Average inventory level = $15,010,000
Average accounts receivable = $10,010,000
Cost of goods sold = 85% of sale s= $43,125,600
Normal Days Payable Outstanding = 30 days
New Plan:
Planned Days Payable Outstanding = 40 days
Annual sales = $50,736,000
Average inventory level = $13,060,000 ($15,010,000 - $1,950,000)
Average accounts receivable = $8,060,000 ($10,010,000 - $1,950,000)
Cash Conversion Cycle:
a. Prior to proposed changes:
Days Inventory Outstanding = $15,010,000/$43,125,600 * 365 = 127 days
Days Receivable OUtstanding = $10,010,000/$50,736,000 * 365 = 72 days
Days Payable Outstanding = 30 days
CCC = 169 (127 + 72 - 30) days
b. After implementing changes:
Days Inventory Outstanding = $13,060,000/$43,125,600 * 365 = 111 days
Days Receivable OUtstanding = $8,060,000/$50,736,000 * 365 = 58 days
Days Payable Outstanding = 30 days
CCC = 129 (111 + 58 - 40) days
c. The change in CCC is 40 days (169 - 129)
d. It is significant. It is about 24% reduction in the CCC. It is equal to the days that payable are outstanding under the proposed plan.
Assume that a $1,000,000 par value, semiannual coupon U.S. Treasury note with four years to maturity (YTM) has a coupon rate of 6%. The yield to maturity of the bond is 11.00%. Using this information and ignoring the other costs involved, calculate the value of the Treasury note:_________.
a.) $841,635.85
b.) $715,390.47
c.) $530,230.59
d.) $1,009,963.02
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)
FV=1000000(the face value of T-note)

BUS 320 Cal Lury owes $21,000 now. A lender will carry the debt for five more years at 6 percent interest. That is, in this particular case, the amount owed will go up by 6 percent per year for five years. The lender then will require that Cal pay off the loan over the next 13 years at 9 percent interest. What will his annual payment be
Answer:
$3,753.59
Explanation:
Value of debt at end of 5 years = $21,000 * (1 + 6%)^5
Value of debt at end of 5 years = $21,000 * 1.3382255776
Value of debt at end of 5 years = $28102.7371296
Value of debt at end of 5 years = $28,102.74
Let x be the annual payments:
x*[1 - (1 + 9%)^-13] / 9% = $28,102.74
x * [1-0.32617864688] / 0.09 = $28,102.74
x * 7.486904 = $28,102.74
x = $28,102.74 / 7.486904
x = 3753.58626
x = $3,753.59

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
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

Harris Fabrics computes its plantwide predetermined overhead rate annually on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 44,000 direct labor-hours would be required for the period’s estimated level of production. The company also estimated $521,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $2.00 per direct labor-hour. Harris’s actual manufacturing overhead cost for the year was $687,120 and its actual total direct labor was 44,500 hours. Required: Compute the company’s plantwide predetermined overhead rate for the year. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
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
Mideast Airlines purchased a 777 aircraft on January 1, 2020 at a cost of
$40,000,000. The estimated useful life of the aircraft is 20 years, with an
estimated salvage value of $6,000,000. What is the accumulated
depreciation and book value at December 31, 2022, using the straight-line
method
Answer:
3,400,000 accumulated depreciation, 36,600,000 book value
Explanation:
Cost - salvage = amount to be depreciated
40,000,000-6,000,000=34,000,000 amount to be deprecated
34,000,000/20 years =1,700,000 depreciation per year
1,700,000x2-3,400,000 accumulated depreciation after 2 years
40,000,000-3,400,000=36,600,000 book value
Rula has purchased a new car for $15000. She paid $2,000 as a down payment, and she paid the remaining balance by a loan from her hometown bank. Rula will pay off the loan by equal annual installments of $4280. How many years will it take Rula to pay off the loan, given an opportunity cost of 12%?
Answer: 4 years
Explanation:
First find the amount Rula borrowed from her hometown bank:
= Price of car - Down payment
= 15,000 - 2,000
= $13,000
The amount that Rula is to pay is an annuity. The loan is the present value of that annuity.
Present value of annuity = Annuity * Present value interest factor of annuity
13,000 = 4,280 * Present value interest factor of annuity
Present value interest factor of annuity = 13,000 / 4,280
= 3.0373
Use an annuity table to find out the year that 12% as a discount rate intersects with, such that the present value of interest factor of annuity is 3.0373.
That number is:
= 4 years
Favre and Carter Law Office employ 12 full-time attorneys and 5 paraprofessionals. Budgeted salaries include $100,000 for each attorney and $30,000 per paraprofessional. For 20x1, indirect costs were budgeted at $250,000, but actually amounted to $300,000. Actual salaries were $110,000 for each attorney and $30,000 for each paraprofessional. Direct and indirect costs are applied on a professional labor-hour basis that includes both attorney and paraprofessional hours. Total budgeted labor-hours were 50,000; however, actual labor-hours were 60,000.
How much should the client be billed in a normal costing system which uses budgeted rate and cost allocations are based on actual data, when 1,000 professional labor-hours were used?
a. $27,000
b. $32,000
c. $34,800
d. $37,400
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

Horace Company manufactures a professional-grade vacuum cleaner and began operations in 2020. For 2020, Horace budgeted to produce and sell 25,000 units. The company had no price, spending, or efficiency variances and writes off production-volume variance to cost of goods sold. Actual data for 2020 are as follows:_______.
Data: Units produced 21,000 Units sold 18,500 Selling price $432 Variable cost: Manufacturing cost per unit produced: Direct materials $33 Direct manufacturing labor $23 Manufacturing Overhead $62 Marketing cost per unit sold $46 Fixed cost: Manufacturing costs $1,550,000 Administrative costs $906,000 Marketing costs $1,479,000
Requirements:
1. Prepare a 2020 income statement for Horace Company using variable costing.
2. Prepare a 2020 income statement for Horace Company using absorption costing.
3. Explain the differences in operating incomes obtained in requirements 1 and 2.
4. Horace's management is considering implementing a bonus for the supervisors based on gross margin under absorption costing. What incentives will this bonus plan create for the supervisors? What modifications could Horace management make to improve such aplan? Explain briefly.
Answer:
Horace Company
1. 2020 Income Statement using variable costing
Sales revenue $7,992,000
Variable Cost of goods sold:
Manufacturing costs $2,183,000
Marketing cost per unit sold $851,000
Contribution margin $4,958,000
Fixed Costs:
Manufacturing costs $1,550,000
Administrative costs $906,000
Marketing costs $1,479,000
Total fixed costs = $3,935,000
Net income = $1,023,000

2. Sales revenue $7,992,000
Cost of goods sold:
Variable Manufacturing costs $2,478,000 ($118 * 21,000)
Fixed Manufacturing costs 1,550,000
Total cost of production $4,028,000
Less Ending Inventory 479,525
Cost of goods sold $3,548,475

Fixed marketing costs 1,479,000
Administrative costs 906,000
Total period costs $3,236,000
Net income $1,207,525
3. The differences that Horace obtains in the operating incomes under variable costing and absorption costing are due to the fixed manufacturing costs that are included in the ending inventory under absorption costing, making the cost of goods sold to be less and resulting in more profits. Under variable costing, the ending inventory does not include the fixed manufacturing costs. So the cost of goods sold is higher, resulting in reduced profits.
4. A bonus for Horace's supervisors based on gross margin under absorption costing will entice supervisors to produce more and sell less products so that the fixed costs can be carried forward. Many products will be left in inventory at the end of the period, which is then carried forward to the following period, thus, enhancing the period's gross profit for maximum bonus for the supervisors.
Modifications that Horace management could make to improve the bonus plan is ensuring that production units do not exceed the budgeted sales units by a large margin and ensuring that ending inventory does not exceed an established limit. This will entice the supervisors to produce according to market demand.

Explanation:
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
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
