2. Suppose that you have 2 buyers and one item for sale. The first buyer values your product at $10, and the second buyer values your product at $6. You estimate that the probability of getting the high value customer is 40%. Your marginal costs are $3. You have only one chance to sell your item to these buyers. What is your optimal price and expected profit

Answers

Answer:

Price at $6, Profit = $3

Explanation:

When price is $ 10:

Profit = $10 - $3 = $7

But there is 40% chance of high valued customer

So, profit = $7 X 0.40 = $2.8

When price is $6

Profit = $6 - $3 = $3

Blaster, Inc., manufactures portable radios. Each radio requires 3 units of Part XBEZ52, which has a standard cost of $1.75 per unit. During May, the company purchased 24,120 units of the part for a total of $43,416. Also during May, the company manufactured 6,240 radios, using 20,620 units of part XBEZ52. The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased. During May, the materials price variance for part XBEZ52 was:

Answers

Answer:

$1,206 unfavorable

Explanation:

materials price variance = (AP – SP) x AQ

SP = $1.75

AQ = 24,120 units (units purchased)

AP = $43,416 / 24,120 = $1.80

materials price variance = ($1.80 - $1.75) x 24,120 = $1,206 unfavorable

Since the price paid for each part is higher than the standard price, the variance is unfavorable.  

Peter Parker is evaluating two different methods for manufacturing spiderwebs. The first option is manufacturing them in his home lab. This will entail purchasing an industrial-grade chemical reactor that costs $450,000. He will have to hire a lab assistant who will initially receive a salary of $60,000 a year, but that salary must be adjusted for inflation every year at an inflation rate of 2.5%. After ten years, the chemical reactor can be sold for $30,000. This lab setup can produce 10,000 cubic meters of spiderwebs per year.

The second option is outsourcing all the manufacturing process to a biotech company recently set up by Bruce Banner. In this case, the price of the spiderwebs will be $14 per cubic meter over the next ten years.

Since Peter Parker is a broke student, all of this project is being financed by a superhero fund set up by his late friend and mentor Tony Stark. This fund returns 11% annually. Since this is not a commercial endeavor, there are no taxes nor depreciation to consider. Given these data, calculate the unit price of manufacturing spiderwebs in the lab and decide which of the two options makes the most economic sense. Justify your answers with calculations.

Answers

Answer:

Option B makes the most economic sense.

Explanation:

Option A:

The total Initial investment amount - $450,000 + $60,000 = $510,000 total Initial investment cost excluding the adjustment for inflation every year of the staff.

Per unit manufacturing cost= $510,000 ÷ 10, 000 (cubic meters of spiderwebs per year) = $51 (implying the selling price per unit will be higher than this).

Option B:

Initial total investment cost = $0 (he only outsourced)

Per unit manufacturing cost= less than $14 (because the price of the spiderwebs will be $14 per cubic meter over the next ten years).

By outsourcing following option B, Peter would avoid the massive initial investment cost of buying the industrial-grade chemical reactor that costs $450,000. Also, since this is not a commercial endeavor he needs to be wary of the lower cost per unit of the spiderwebs he stands to gain with option B.

Answers

Answer:

The amount would be reported for net investing cash flows on the Statement of Cash Flows is –$190,000, that is, minus $190,000.

Explanation:

Cash flow from investing activities refers to the section of the cash flow statement that provides amount of cash that is generated or spent on investing activities.

Investing activities comprises of purchases or sales property plant, and equipment (PP&E), marketable securities (i.e., stocks, bonds, etc.), and among others.

From the question, the amount of net investing cash flows can be computed as follows:

Particulars                                                     Amount ($)

Purchased land                                              –180,000

Purchased treasury stock                               –40,000

Sold delivery truck                                            30,000  

Net cash flow from investing activities     –190,000  

Therefore, the amount would be reported for net investing cash flows on the Statement of Cash Flows is –$190,000, that is, minus $190,000.

The company uses the straight-line method to amortize the discount. The carrying value of the bonds immediately after the first interest payment is:

Answers

Answer: $293,350

Explanation:

The carrying value of the bonds immediately after the first interest payment will be the addition of the received proceed and the ammortized discount. This will be:

= $293,000 + $350

= $293,350

Note that the ammortized discount was calculated as:

= ($300000 - $293000)/20

= $7000/20

= $350

Answers

Answer:

Malibu Beachwear

Indication of the effect (+ for increase, − for decrease, +/− for increase/decrease) of each of these transactions on total assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity:

a. Purchased $350,100 of common stock now held in treasury.

Assets (-$350,100) = Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity (-$350,100)

b. Declared cash dividends in the amount of $260,050.

Assets = Liabilities (+$260,050) + Shareholders' Equity (-$260,050)

c. Paid the dividends in (b).

Assets (-$260,050) = Liabilities (-$260,050) + Shareholders' Equity

d. Issued 101,000 new shares of $0.10 par value common shares for $2 per share.

Assets (+$202,000) = Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity (+$202,000)

e. Closed the Dividends account.

Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity

Explanation:

a. The purchase of common stock held in treasury implies that Malibu Beachwear bought its own shares from investors and paid cash.  The recording of the transaction involves a reduction in Cash (Assets) and Shareholders' Equity with the creation of Treasury Stock Account.  The treasury stock account is a contra account to the Common Stock account and the balance is deducted from the Shareholders' Equity in the balance sheet.

b. By declaring cash dividends, Malibu Beachwear is returning to its stockholders part of the assets that belong to them.  This transaction reduces the Shareholders' Equity (Retained Earnings) and increases the liabilities with Dividends Payable in the sum of $260,050 respectively.

c.  The payment of the cash dividend by Malibu reduces the Assets (Cash) and the Liabilities (Dividends Payable) in the sum of $260,050.

d. The issue of 101,000 new shares of $0.10 par value for $2 per share by Malibu Beachwear increases its Assets (Cash) with the sum of $202,000 (101,000 x $2) and the Shareholders' Equity (Common Stock with $10,100 and Additional Paid-in Capital- Common Stock with $191,900).

e.  Closing the dividends account does not affect the accounting equation.  Instead, it affects the Income Summary (Statement of Retained Earnings) to which the account is closed.

f. The accounting equation of Assets = Liabilities + Equity is an important feature of the double-entry system of bookkeeping and financial accounting.  The equation implies that every transaction affects the two sides of the equation since two or more accounts are involved.  Where it does not affect the two sides, it implies that one side is affected twice or more.  This equation keeps the assets and liabilities + equity sides in balance at all times.  It also implies that Malibu Beachwear for every transaction, will have the assets equal the liabilities or equity.

What is the yield to maturity on a bond that pays annual coupon rate of 14%, has a par value of $1,000, matures in 10 years, and is selling for $911?

Answers

Answer:

Yield to Maturity =15.6%

Explanation:

The Yield to maturity is the discount rate that equates then price of the bonds to the present of cash inflows expected from the bond

The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:  

YM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)  

YM-Yield to maturity-  

C- annual coupon  

F- Face Value  

P- Current Price  

n- number of years

DATA  

Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 14%=140

Face Value = 1000

YM-?, C- 140, Face Value - 1,000, P-911 , n- 10

YM = (140 + (1000-911)/10) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 911) )  

YM = 0.156 × 100 = 15.6%

Yield to Maturity =15.6%

Answer:

Current ratio and Acid-test ratio (3.15 and 0.80)

Explanation:

Note: The missing part of the question is "Using the following year-end information for Bauman, LLC, calculate the current ratio and acid-test ratio:"

i. Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities

Current assets = 38,600 + 9,000 + 40,000 + 240,000 + 17,400

Current assets = $345,000

Current liabilities= 87,200 + 22,300

Current liabilities = $109,500

Current ratio = $345,000 / $109,500

Current ratio = 3.15

ii. Acid-test ratio = {Current assets - (Inventory + Prepaid expenses)}/Current liabilities

Acid-test ratio = 345,000- (240,000  + 17,400 ) / 109,500

Acid-test ratio = 87,600 / 109,500

Acid-test ratio = 0.80

Answers

Answer:

$0 gain/loss

Explanation:

A company sold an equipment that originally cost $290,000 for $145,000

The accumulated depreciation on the equipment was $145,000

The first step is to calculate the book value of the equipment

Book value of the equipment= Cost of equipment-accumulated depreciation

= $290,000-$145,000

= $145,000

Therefore, the gain/loss on the equipment can be calculated as follows

= Selling price-book value

= $145,000-$145,000

= 0

Hence there is no recognized gain or loss on the equipment

Answer:

Company would recognize a no loss or gain on the disposal i.e Nil

Explanation:

The gain or loss on disposal is the difference between the carrying value of an assets at the point of disposal and the the disposal value.

Gains/(Loss)= Disposal value - carrying value

The carrying value is the difference between the historical cost and the accumulated depreciation till date.

Carrying value = Historical cost - Accumulated depreciation till date

Carrying value = 290,000 - 145,000 = 145 ,000

Gains/Loss= 145,000 - 145,000 = 0.

Company would recognize a no loss or gain on the disposal i.e Nil

Using the EOQ model, how many should Ray order each time?

Answers

Answer:

28.72 units

Explanation:

Calculation of how many should Ray order each time using EOQ model

Using this formula

EOQ= √2DS/H

Where,

D=Annual demand 1,500 units

S=Order costs $22

H=Holding Costs $80 per unit

Let plug in the formula

EOQ=√2*1,500*$22/$80

EOQ=√66,000/$80

EOQ=√825

(Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

geometric mean return = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = 1.21%

Explanation:

Year            Price            Dividend              Yearly return

1                  $43.37                 -                            0

2                 $48.35            $0.60                      1.24%

3                 $57.27            $0.63                       1.1%

4                 $45.35            $0.80                       1.76%

5                 $52.27            $0.85                       1.63%

6                  $61.35            $0.93                       1.52%

geometric mean return = [(1 + 0) x (1 + 0.0124) x (1 + 0.011) x (1 + 0.0176) x (1 + 0.0163) x (1 + 0.0152)]¹/⁶ - 1 = 1.012 - 1 = 0.012 = 1.2%

arithmetic mean return = (0% + 1.24% + 1.1% + 1.76% + 1.63% + 1.52%) / 6 = 7.25% / 6 = 1.21%
