Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $20 per unit and whose variable expense is $17 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $8,100. Required: If the company's fixed expenses increase by $600, what would become the new break-even point in dollar sales?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the new break-even point in dollar sales is  $29,000.

Explanation:

Break even point is the level of activity where a firm makes neither a profit nor a loss.

Break even point (dollar sales) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

Where, Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales

                                                        = ($20 - $17) ÷ $20

                                                        = 0.30

New Break even point (dollar sales) = ($8,100 + $600) ÷ 0.30

                                                            = $29,000

Answers

Answer:

The Company WACC is 6.1%

Explanation:

WACC is the averge cost of capital that a company bears based on the weights of each financing option available to the company.

First we need to calculate the Market values

Debt = $50 M x $1,050 / $1,000 = $52.5 M

Common Equity = $30 M

Preferred equity = $20 M x $90 / $100 = $18 M

Total Capital = $52.5 M + $30 M + $18 M = $100.5

Now we need to calculte the Cost of each financing option

Cost of Debt

Price of Bond = C x ( 1 - ( 1 + YTM )^-n / r + Face value / ( 1 + YTM )^n

$1,050 = $60 x ( 1 - ( 1 + YTM )^-5 / YTM + $1,000 / ( 1 + YTM )^5

YTM = 4.85%

Cost of Common Equity = 12%

Cost of Preseferred Stock = $5 / $90 = 0.05556 = 5.56%

Now use following fomula to calculte the WACC

WACC = ( Common Equity weight x Cost of Common equity ) + ( Weight of Debt x Cost of Debt x ( 1 - Tax rate ) + ( Weight of Preferred Shares x Cost of Preferred Shares )

Now Place all the valus in the formula

WACC = ( $30 / $100.5 x 12% ) + ( $52.5 / $100.5 x ( 1 - 40% ) x 4.85% ) + ( $18 / $100.5 x 5.56% )

WACC = 3.58% + 1.52% + 1.00% = 6.1%

Assume that the hourly cost to operate a commercial airplane follows the normal distribution with a mean of $5,793 per hour and a standard deviation of $439. What is the operating cost for the lowest 2% of the airplanes?

Answers

Answer:

x1 = 4891.294

Explanation:

given data

mean μ =  $5,793

standard deviation  σ =  $439

solution

we know here that

P(x < x1 ) = 0.02     .................1

so

[tex]P(\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma } < \frac{x1-\mu }{\sigma }) = 0.02[/tex]

so

[tex]P(z < \frac{x1-\mu }{\sigma }) = 0.02[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x1-\mu }{\sigma }[/tex]  = invNorm(0.02)

so

x1 = μ + σ × invNorm(0.02)    .....................2

we use here table for invNorm(0.02) and put value in eq 2

x1 = 5793 + 439 × (-2.054 )

x1 = 4891.294

Lilliput is a country that has closed borders and does not import or export any goods or services; hence, they do not worry about trade with other countries.
Total spending for the federal government of Lilliput for the last fiscal year was $1.06 billion. The country collected $1.05 billion in taxes during this same fiscal year. Assume government transfers were zero. Based on this information, what is Lilliput's budget balance? In the last fiscal year, Lilliput was running:______.
a. a budget surplus.
b. a balanced budget.
c. a budget deficit.

Answers

Answer: budget deficit

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the total spending for the federal government of Lilliput for the last fiscal year was $1.06 billion and that the country collected $1.05 billion in taxes during this same fiscal year.

Since the expenditure of $1.06 billion is more than the revenue of $1.05 billion, this show that there was a budget deficit.

Which item below is an incorrect statement about the difference between the discount rate and the federal funds rate? a) The federal funds rate has a higher interest rate than the discount rate to encourage borrowing b) The discount rate is the interest rate at which the Fed charges the bank for loans c) The federal funds rate is the interest rate at which banks charge each other for loans d) The discount rate is directly changed by the Fed while the federal funds rate is changed indirectly.

Answers

Answer:

a) The federal funds rate has a higher interest rate than the discount rate to encourage borrowing

Explanation:

The Feds fund rate is the rate at which banks borrow from each other usually overnight, while the discount rate is the interest rate charged by the Fed to commercial banks for borrowing directly from the Fed.

These borrowings help the commercial banks meet up their liquidity requirements.

The discount rate is higher than the Fed funds rate. This is to encourage banks to borrow from each other instead of borrowing directly from the Federal Reserve.

The Fed fund rate also tends to affect the prime lending rate (rate at which banks lend money to their clients).

So the statement - The federal funds rate has a higher interest rate than the discount rate to encourage borrowing. Is not correct

For example, a road construction project may take into account how often the road would be used, which provides insight into the frequency of road repairs and the overall lifetime of the car.

The issue of _____ concerns how often a particular project will be repeated and what its lifespan will be.

S Corporation makes 50,000 motors to be used in the production of its sewing machines. The average cost per motor at this level of activity is: Direct materials $ 10.90 Direct labor $ 9.90 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 4.15 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 5.10 An outside supplier recently began producing a comparable motor that could be used in the sewing machine. The price offered to S Corporation for this motor is $28.15. If S Corporation decides not to make the motors, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be: Multiple Choice $160,000 $367,500 ($95,000) $255,000

Answers

Answer:

If the company makes the motors, it will save $160,000.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 50,000 units

Production costs:

Direct materials $10.90

Direct labor $9.90

Variable manufacturing overhead $4.15

The price offered to S Corporation for this motor is $28.15.

We will take into account only the avoidable costs:

Make in-house:

Total cost= 50,000*(10.9 + 9.9 + 4.15)= $1,247,500

Buy:

Total cost= 50,000*28.15= $1,407,500

If the company makes the motors, it will save $160,000.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: Closed Shop.

Explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Closed Shop" refers to a type of practice well known as "pre-entry closed shop" too that unions favored with the only purpose to obligate the companies to contract workers who are already members of the union itself so in that situation both the company and the union tend to have an agreement of maintaining certain salary price for the workers so they are not in a continous fight. Moreover, this practice allow the workers to be employed by the company only if they are members of the union and as long as they are members of it.

Pear Corporation is considering Alternative A and Alternative B. Costs associated with the alternatives are listed below:
Alternative A Alternative B
Materials costs $ 40,000 $ 56,000
Processing costs $ 37,000 $ 37,000
Equipment rental $ 13,000 $ 13,000
Occupancy costs $ 15,000 $ 22,000
Are the materials costs and processing costs relevant in the choice between alternatives A and B?
Multiple Choice
A) Only processing costs are relevant
B) Only materials costs are relevant
C) Both materials costs and processing costs are relevant
D) Neither materials costs nor processing costs are relevant

Answers

Answer: B) Only materials costs are relevant

Explanation:

When choosing between alternatives, the main decider is the difference in costs. The costs that are different are the ones to decide whether a company takes on a project as it will signal the financial viability of a project.

In both alternatives, the Processing costs remain at $37,000 therefore the alternative chosen is irrelevant to these costs as they will be incurred regardless of the company's choice. They are therefore not to be considered.

Material costs on the other hand vary by the alternatives and so should be considered.

Explanation:

An optimum capital structure can be defined as a financial instrument used by firms to determine the best mix of debt and equity financing that maximizes its market value, as well as minimizes its cost of capital such as operations and expansion. It minimizes the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of a firm to the least most possible value.

Generally, the optimum capital structure used by a firm to maximize its market value;

a) Provides the lowest cost of capital.

b) Has the best mix of debt, preferred stock, and common equity.

c) Can change over time as market and firm conditions change.

A loan is being repaid by 15 annual installments of 1,000 each. Interest is at an effective annual rate of 5%. Immediately after the fifth installment is paid, the loan is renegotiated. The revised amortization schedule calls for a sixth installment of 800, a seventh installment of (800 + K), with each subsequent installment increasing by K over the previous payment. The period of the loan is not changed. Determine the revised amount of the last installment.

Answers

Answer:

the last installment = $1,239.42

Explanation:

renegotiated agreement:

year          payment

1                 $1,000

2                $1,000

3                $1,000

4                $1,000

5                $1,000

6                $800

7                $800 + K

8                $800 + 2K

9                $800 + 3K

10               $800 + 4K

11                $800 + 5K

12               $800 + 6K

13               $800 + 7K

14               $800 + 8K

15               $800 + 9K

we must first determine the original loan and to do that we need the PV of the original payment schedule:

PV = $1,000 x 10.380 (PV annuity factor, 5%, 15 periods) = $10,380

now we find the present value of the first 5 installments:

PV = $1,000 x 4.3295 (PV annuity factor, 5%, 5 periods) = $4,329.50

$10,380 - $4,329.50 = $6,050.50

now to find K:

$6,050.50 = $800/1.05⁶ + ($800 + K)/1.05⁷ + ($800 + 2K)/1.05⁸ + ($800 + 3K)/1.05⁹ + ($800 + 4K)/1.05¹⁰ + ($800 + 5K)/1.05¹¹ + ($800 + 6K)/1.05¹² + ($800 + 7K)/1.05¹³ + ($800 + 8K)/1.05¹⁴ + ($800 + 9K)/1.05¹⁵ = 596.97 + 568.55 + 0.71K + 541.47 + 1.35K + 515.69 + 1.93K + 491.13 + 2.46K + 467.74 + 2.92K + 445.47 + 3.34K + 424.26 + 3.71K + 404.05 + 4.04K + 384.81 + 4.33K = $4,840.14 + 24.79K

$6,050.50 = $4,840.14 + 24.79K

$6,050.50 - $4,840.14 = 24.79K

$1,210.36 = 24.79K

K = $48.82

the last installment = $800 + 9K = $800 + (9 x $48.82) = $1,239.42

You recently purchased a stock that is expected to earn 19 percent in a booming economy, 14 percent in a normal economy, and lose 3 percent in a recessionary economy. There is 21 percent probability of a boom, 70 percent chance of a normal economy, and 9 percent chance of a recession. What is your expected rate of return on this stock?

Answers

Answer:

r = 0.1352 or 13.52%

Explanation:

The expected rate of return or r is the average return that is expected from the stock. It is the expected rate of profit or loss that an investor can anticipate on an investment whose returns are known or anticipated.

The expected rate of return of can be calculated as follows,

r = pA * rA  +  pB * rB + ... + pN * rN

Where,

pA, pB and so on represents the probability of an event or state to occur rA, rB and so on are the return in different events  or states

r = 0.21 * 0.19  +  0.7 * 0.14  +  0.09 * -0.03

r = 0.1352 or 13.52%

RLW-II Enterprises estimated that indirect manufacturing costs for the year would be $60 million and that 12,000 machine hours would be used

Answers

Answer: $3,150,000

Explanation:

Total cost of production will be the total sum of the material costs, labor costs and indirect costs.

Indirect Costs

It was estimated that 12,000 machine hours would be used at a cost of $60 million.

Indirect cost per machine hour is;

= 60,000,000/12,000

= $5,000 per hour

With 200 machine hours, indirect cost is;

= 200 * 5,000

= $1,000,000

Total cost of production = 1,250,000 + 900,000 + 1,000,000

= $3,150,000

Suppose that the residents of Vegi-Topia spend all of their income on cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots. In 2013, they buy 50 heads of cauliflower for $2 each, 60 bunches of broccoli for $1.5 each, and 200 carrots for $0.10. In 2014, they buy 75 heads of cauliflower for $2 each, 70 bunches of broccoli for $1.50 each, and 500 carrots for $0.20 each. In 2015, they buy 80 heads of cauliflower for $3, 90 bunches of broccoli for $2, and 500 carrots for $0.25 each. If the base year is 2015, what is the inflation for 2014

Answers

Answer:

Inflation for 2014 is 11%

Explanation:

Inflation refers to a quantitative measure of the rate of an increase in the average price level of a selected basket of commodities in an economy over a specified period of time.

The inflation rate for 2014 can be calculated as follows:

Since 2015 is the base year, the it implies that the basket we are going to use contains 80 heads of cauliflower, 90 bunches of broccoli, and 500 carrots.

Therefore, cost of basket for each year can be determined as follows:

2013 cost of basket = ∑(Unit price in 2014 * Quantity in 2015) = ($2 * 80) + ($1.50 * 50) + ($0.10 * 500) = $285

2014 cost of basket = ∑(Unit price in 2014 * Quantity in 2015) = ($2 * 80) + ($1.50 * 50) + ($0.20 * 500) = $335

2015 cost of basket = ∑(Unit price in 2015 * Quantity in 2015) = ($3 * 80) + ($2 * 50) + ($0.25 * 500) = $465

The CPI for each year can be determined using the following for formula:

CPI of a year = Current period cost of basket / Base year cost of basket …………… (1)

As 2015 is the base year, using equation (1), we have:

2013 CPI = (2013 cost of basket / 2015 cost of basket) * 100 = $285 / $465 = 0.61 * 100 = 61

2014 CPI = (2014 cost of basket / 2015 cost of basket) * 100 = $335 / $465 = 0.72 * 100 = 72

2015 CPI = (2015 cost of basket / 2015 cost of basket) * 100 = $465 / $465 = 1 * 100 = 100

The inflation for a year can be determined as follows:

Inflation = (CPI in the current year - CPI in previous year) / CPI in the base year ..................... (2)

Using equation (2), we have:

Inflation for 2014 = (CPI in 2014 - CPI in 2013) / CPI in 2015 = (72 - 61) / 100 = 11 / 100 = 0.11, or 11%

Answers

Answer:

Working capital = $ 374,000

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the company’s working capital at December 31, 2021

Formula for Working Capital

Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

First is to find the Current assets

Current assets =Cash $40,000 + Accounts receivable 170,000 +Raw materials 44,000+Work in process 62,000 +Finished goods 109,000 +Notes receivable 120,000 +Interest receivable 23,000 +Investment in debt securities 52,000+Prepaid rent 40,000 (80,000/2)

Current assets=$660,000

Second step is to find the Current liabilities

Current liabilities =Interest payable $25,000+Accounts payable 200,000+Deferred revenue 28,000 (56,000/2) +Allowance for uncollectible accounts 33,000

Current liabilities =$286,000

Let plug in the formula

Working capital =$660,000 - $286,000

Working capital = $ 374,000

Therefore the company’s working capital at December 31, 2021 will be $374,000

A manufacturer of hospital supplies has a uniform annual demand for 500,000 boxes of bandages. It costs ​$10 to store one box of bandages for one year and $250 to set up the plant for production. How many times a year should the company produce boxes of bandages in order to minimize the total storage and setup​ costs?

Answers

Answer: company can produce boxes 100 times per year.

Explanation:

Ordering cost per order, S = $250

Annual demand, D = 500,000

Holding or carrying cost per unit,  = $10

Economic order Quantity = [tex]\sqrt{2 x Annual demand X ordering cost /carrying cost}[/tex]

=[tex]\sqrt{ 2 X 500,000 X 250 /10}[/tex] =  [tex]\sqrt{25,000,000}[/tex] = 5000

Optimal order quantity = 5000 boxes.

Number of times company can produce boxes =  Annual Demand/ Optimal order quantity =  500,000 / 5000 = 100  times

Barney Corporation reported the following figures for their year ending December 31, 2019: Gross profit: 538,000 Cost of goods sold: 453,000 Net income: 230,000 Using the data above, calculate Barney Corp's 2019 Gross Profit Margin.

Answers

Answer:

Barney Corp.'s gross profit margin for 2019 = 54.29%

Explanation:

gross profit margin = (net sales - cost of goods sold) / net sales

net sales - cost of goods sold = gross profit = $538,000net sales = gross profit + cost of goods sold = $538,000 +  $453,000 = $991,000

gross profit margin = $538,000 / $991,000 = 0.5429 = 54.29%

Graham Motors manufactures specialty tractors. It has two divisions: a Treactor Division and a Tire Division. The Tractor Division can use the tires produced by the Tire Division. The market price per tire is $75. The Tire Division has the following costs per tire:Direct material cost per tire: $15Conversion costs per tire: $3 (Assume the $3 includes only the variable portion of conversion costs.)Fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the year is expected to total $116,000. The Tire Division expects to manufacture 58,000 tires this year. The fixed manufacturing overhead per tire is $2 ($116,000 divided by 58,000 tires).Assume that the Tire Division has excess capacity, meaning that it can produce tires for the Tractor Division without giving up any of its current tire sales to outsiders. If Graham Motors has a negotiated transfer price policy, what is the lowest acceptable transfer price? What is the highest acceptable transfer price?• The lowest acceptable transfer price is $_______, the Tire Division's ______________.• The highest acceptable transfer price is $_______, the Tire Division's _____________.

Answers

Answer:

The LOWEST acceptable transfer price is $18 the Tire Division's variable cost per tire.

The HIGHEST acceptable transfer price is $75the Tire Division's market price.

Explanation:

Calculation for the lowest acceptable transfer price and the highest acceptable transfer price

Variable Cost per tire:

Direct Material $15

Conversion cost $3

=$18 per tire

The LOWEST acceptable transfer price is $18 Tire division variable cost per tire

Based on the information we were told that the market price per tire is $75 which means that the HIGHEST transfer price is $75 tire division market price.

Therefore If Graham Motors has a negotiated transfer price policy The LOWEST acceptable transfer price is $18 the Tire Division's variable cost per tire While The HIGHEST acceptable transfer price is $75 the Tire Division's market price.

An increase in the rate of expected inflation will Group of answer choices shift the demand for loanable funds to the left (down). shift the supply of loanable funds to the left (down). shift demand and supply for loanable funds to the right (up), decreasing interest rates. shift demand and supply for loanable funds to the right (up), increasing interest rates.

Answers

Answer:

shift demand and supply for loanable funds to the right (up), increasing interest rates.

Explanation:

According to the Fisher hypothesis when there is an increase in the expected inflation there is an equal increase in nominal interest rates.

As interest rates rise demand and supply for loanable funds will rise. This is illustrated in the attached diagram. Interest rate moves from i0 to i1.

Inflation is a reduction in the purchasing power of money. When inflation increases money regulation agencies reduce supply of money as a way to reduce price increase. This in turn reduces the amount of loanable funds commercial banks have to give out

richard has two investment opportunities. He can invest in the sunglasses company or the umbrella company. if he diversifies his investment by putting 50% of his money into each company, what is the expected return and standard deviation of his portfolio

Answers

Answer:

Some information was missing, so i looked it up:

State of               Prob. of the state          Sunglasses            Umbrella

the economy      of the economy             Company               Corporation

Sunny                          .50                              25%                          0%

Rainy                           .50                               0%                          25%

expected returns:

Sunglasses Company = 0.5 x 25% = 12.5%

Umbrella Corporation = 0.5 x 25% = 12.5%,

so the expected return of the portfolio = (12.5% x 0.50) + (12.5% x 0.50) = 12.5%

standard deviation:

Sunglasses Company = √{[(0% - 12.5%)² + (25% - 12.5%)²] / 2} = √156.25 = 12.5%

Umbrella Corporation = √{[(0% - 12.5%)² + (25% - 12.5%)²] / 2} = √156.25 = 12.5%

so the standard deviation of the portfolio = 12.5%

Your client in the 25% federal income tax bracket lives in a state where his earnings place him in the 6% bracket for state income tax purposes. If he were to purchase a 4% bond issued by a political subdivision of another state, his total tax-equivalent yield would be

Answers

Answer:

Slightly more than 5.33%.

Explanation:

In case when the municipal bond owned by an individual i.e. issued is not for interest free tax rate but also it is non tax on that particular state

So here the tax-equivalent yield is

= Purchase bond percentage ÷ (1 - tax rate)

= 0.04 ÷ (1 - 0.25)

= 5.33%

Hence, his total tax-equivalent yield is 5.33% i.e. calculated by applying the above formula

The Vice-President of ACME Corporation, an NYSE listed firm, places an order to buy 10,000 shares of ACME common at the market. 3 months later, ACME stock's price has increased by 20% and the officer places an order to sell. Which statement is TRUE

Answers

Answer: D.  The officer must forfeit the profit on the sale

Explanation:

The Vice-president of ACME who is the one attempting to sell is an officer of ACME and as such falls under Rule 144 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a control person.

This Act is meant to curb market manipulation and so it places restrictions on some activities by officers of a company. One of which is that for the seller to claim any profits on such sales, they would have to had held the stock for at least 6 months so that they do not have a "short swing" profit. If they do so, they are to pay the profits accrued back to the Issuer of the stock so indeed, the officer must forfeit the profit on the sale.
