Lieutenant Commander Data is planning to make his monthly (every 30 days) trek to Gamma Hydra City to pick up a supply of isolinear chips. The trip will take Data about three days. Before he leaves, he calls in the order to the GHC Supply Store. He uses chips at an average rate of seven per day (seven days per week) with a standard deviation of demand of two per day. He needs a 98 percent service probability.

Required:
If he currently has 35 chips in inventory, how many should he order? What is the most he will ever have to order?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

219.57 units

Explanation:

Given :

Daily demand, d = 7 per day

Standard deviation, = 2 per day

Service probability = 98%

Total number of days per week = 7

Lead time , L = 3 days

On hand inventory, I = 35

Now calculating the optimal order quantity by using the given formula,

[tex]$q=d(T+L)+ z \ \sigma_{r+L}-I$[/tex]   .............(i)

First, we will find out the value of  [tex]$\sigma_{r+L}$[/tex] and z.

Therefore,

[tex]$\sigma_{r+L}=\sqrt{(30+3)(2)^2}$[/tex]

        [tex]$=\sqrt{132}$[/tex]

       = 11.48

Now the value of z can be found out from the z-table,

Z value for 98% service level = 2.054

Now putting the value of [tex]$\sigma_{r+L}$[/tex] and z in equation (i), we get,

[tex]$q=d(T+L)+ z \ \sigma_{r+L}-I$[/tex]  

   = (7)(30+3)+(2.054)(11.48) - 35

   = 231 + 23.57 - 35

   = 219.57 units

So the optimal number of the units required to be order = 219.57 units

c. requires the investment be increased by the reported net income of the investee
d. requires the investment be decreased by the reported net income of the investee

Answers

Answer:

Option a (recognizes.................income) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The proportion of even more inventories is below 20 percent, therefore the firm sends dividends on the inventories which are incorporated into the personal income tax rate.Dividends paid mostly by the investor, not adjusting as necessary for the investor's total earnings, should be declared as compensation or earnings.

The provided situation is not connected with other possibilities. So the above option is the correct answer.

Allen buys only beer and pizza. When the price of beer is $2.00 per bottle and the price of pizza is $10.00, Allen maximizes his total utility (satisfaction) by buying 5 beers and 4 pizzas. If the marginal utility of the 5th beer is 100 utils. What would be the marginal utility of the 4th pizza?

Answers

Answer:

500 utils.

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What would be the marginal utility of the 4th pizza

First step is to determine the Total utility maximized

Using this formula

Total utility maximized =Beer Marginal Utility/Price of beers =Pizza Marginal Utility/Price of pizza.

Let plug in the formula

Total utility maximized= 100 utils/$2.00 = Marginal Utility of pizza/$10.00.

Marginal Utility of beers = 100/$2

Marginal Utility of beers= 50 utils per dollar

Marginal Utility of pizza =50 utils per dollar

Now let determine the marginal utility of the 4th pizza

Hence,

50 = Marginal Utility of pizza/$10

Marginal Utility of pizza=50*$10

Marginal Utility of pizza= 500 utils.

Therefore What would be the marginal utility of the 4th pizza is 500 utils

Suppose the U.S. yield curve is flat at 3% and the euro yield curve is flat at 5%. The current exchange rate is $1.4 per euro. What will be the swap rate on an agreement to exchange currency over a 3-year period

Answers

Answer: hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question.

answer :

3.02 million,    2.96 million,    2.91 million

Explanation:

Determine the swap rate over a 3-year period

swap rate = forward exchange rate * exchange amount

For year 1

1.4 * ( 1 + 0.03 / 1 + 0.05 ) * 2.2 million

= 1.4 ( 0.98095 ) * 2.2

= 3.02 million

For year 2

1.4 * ( 1 + 0.03 / 1 + 0.05 )^2 * 2..2 million

= 1.4 ( 0.98095 )^2 * 2.2 million

= 2.96378 million

For year 3

1.4 * ( 1 + 0.03 / 1 + 0.05 )^3 * 2.2 million

= 1.4 ( 0.98095 )^3 * 2.2 million

= 2.90733 million

Below is information from the financial statements of Greenwich Company: Accounts receivable (net) 2016: $2,400 Accounts receivable (net) 2015: $2,200 Net sales 2016: $25,875 What is the average collection period

Answers

Answer:

32.44 days

Explanation:

The computation of the average collection period is shown below:

But before that we have to determine the account receivable turnover ratio

So, the account receivable turnover ratio is

= (net sales) ÷ (average of account receivables)

= $25,875 ÷ ($2,400 + $2,200) ÷ 2

= $25,875 ÷ $2,300

= 11.25 times

Now the average collection period is

= Total no of days in a year ÷ account receivable turnover ratio

= 365 ÷ 11.25

= 32.44 days

We assume that the no of days that should be considered is 365 days

(1) Compute the direct materials price and quantity variances
(2) Compute the direct labor rate variance and the direct labor efficiency variance. Indicate whether each variance is favorable or unfavorable

Answers

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= (3 - 2.95)*92,000

Direct material price variance= $4,600 favorable

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

Direct material quantity variance= (10*9,000 - 92,000)*3

Direct material quantity variance= $6,000 unfavorable

To calculate the direct labor efficiency and rate variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (2*9,000 - 18,800)*12

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $9,600 unfavorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (12 - 12.05)*18,800

Direct labor rate variance= $940 unfavorable

Answers

Answer:

$30,000 in total

Explanation:

The annual dividend on preferred stock can be determined based on the dividend rate, in other words, the annual dividend is the dividend rate multiplied by the face value of the preferred stock as shown thus:

annual dividend on preferred stock=number of preferred shares outstanding*par value per share*dividend rate

number of preferred shares outstanding=5,000

par value per share=$100

dividend rate=6%

50,000 shares refer to the number of common stocks outstanding

annual dividend on preferred stock=5000*$100*6%

annual dividend on preferred stock=$30,000

dividend per share=$30000/5000=$6

Hence, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974 states that employees must be told about their benefits such as plan features and funding, in a way that the average employee can understand.

Niendorf Corporation's 25-year maturity bonds have an 8.75% coupon rate with interest paid semiannually, and a par value of $1,000. if your required rate of return is 13% what is the intrinsic value of the bond

Answers

Answer: $687.10

Explanation:

The value of a bond is the present value of the bond's coupon payments plus the present value of the bond's par value at maturity.

First convert terms to semi-annual periods as the coupon rate is semi annual:

Coupon payment = (1,000 * 8.75%) / 2 = $43.75

Required return = 13% / 2 = 6.5%

Number of periods = 25 * 2 = 50 semi annual periods

The coupon payment is an annuity so the value of the bond is:

= Present value of annuity + Present value of par

= (43.75 * ( 1 - (1 + 6.5%) ⁻⁵⁰) / 6.5%) + 1,000 / ( 1 + 6.5%)⁵⁰

= $687.10

Semi-fixed Cost will be

A. zero if output were zero and would change
erratically as output increased
B. more than zero if no products were made and
would then increase in direct proportion to output
C. zero when output is zero and would increase
in direct proportion to output
D. a fixed amount when output was zero and would
not increase in direct proportion to output​

Answers

Answer:

B. more than zero if no products were made and would then increase in direct proportion to output

Explanation:

Semi-fixed Cost will be "more than zero if no products were made and would then increase in direct proportion to output."

This is because a semi-fixed cost also known as semi-variable cost or mixed cost is a combination of both a fixed factor and a variable factor.

Such that if production was zero some costs would still be incurred. However, as output rises, the variable part of the costs will rise in direct proportion to output.

Gamble Corporation had beginning inventory $100,000, cost of goods purchased $700,000, and ending inventory $140,000. What was Gamble's inventory turnover? Group of answer choices 5 times. 5.5 times. 5.83 times. 6.6 times.

Answers

Answer:

5.83 times

Explanation:

The computation of the Gamble's inventory turnover is given below:

As we know that

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold ÷ (ending inventory + opening inventory) ÷ 2

= $700,000 ÷ ($140,000 + $100,000) ÷ 2

= $700,000 ÷ $120,000

= 5.83 times

Direct labor $2.00
Direct material $2.50
Variable 2.00
Total $6.50

In addition, annual fixed out-of-pocket costs related to the production of these parts would be $20,000.

a. Compute the net present value of the machine investment, assuming that the company uses a discount rate of 9 percent to evaluate capital projects.
b. Based on the NPV computed in (a), is the machine a worthwhile investment? Explain.
c. In addition to the NPV, what other factors should Birmingham’s managers consider when making the investment decision?

Answers

Answer:

Birmingham Bolt, Inc.

a. The net present value of the machine investment = ($57,214.47).

b. Based on the computed NPV in (a), the machine is not a worthwhile investment.  Birmingham will lose $57,214.47 from the investment.

c. In addition to the NPV, the other factors that Birmingham’s managers  should consider when making the investment decision are:

1. the probability of reducing the variable costs per unit of production by achieving productivity efficiencies.

2. whether the price could be reviewed upward with the customer.

3. whether there will be increased demand for the product in the future.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Special-purpose parts for a new home product = 800,000 parts

Annual requirement of the parts = 100,000

Period of contract = 8 years

Discount rate = 9%

Initial investment in production machine = $500,000

Price offer per part = $7.50

Annual sales revenue from parts = $750,000

Variable costs;

Direct labor      $2.00

Direct material $2.50

Variable           $2.00

Total                $6.50                     $650,000

Contribution margin                      $100,000

Annual fixed costs                          $20,000

Annual net cash inflow                  $80,000

PV of annual cash inflows = $442,785.53

NPV = ($57,214.47) ($442,785.53 - $500,000)

N (# of periods)  8

I/Y (Interest per year)  9

PMT (Periodic Payment)  80000

FV (Future Value)  0

Results

PV = $442,785.53

Sum of all periodic payments = $640,000.00

Total Interest = $197,214.47

Solar Innovations Corporation bought a machine at the beginning of the year at a cost of $31,000. The estimated useful life was five years and the residual value was $3,000. Assume that the estimated productive life of the machine is 10,000 units. Expected annual production was year 1, 2,000 units; year 2, 3,000 units; year 3, 2,000 units; year 4, 2,000 units; and year 5, 1,000 units.

Required:
a. Which method will result in the highest net income in year 2?
b. Does this higher net income mean the machine was used more efficiently under this depreciation method?

Answers

Answer:

Straight line depreciation

no

Explanation:

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

(31,000 - 3000) / 5 = $5,600

depreciation expense each year is 5600

Activity method based on output = (output produced that year / total output of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)

(3000 / 10,000) x (31,000 - 3000) = 8400

Double declining =  

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

2/5 x 31000 = 12400

year 2 = 2/5 x(31,000 - 12400) = 7440
