3. The comparison in requirement 2 shows that eliminating the Industrial Systems Product Line makes Safety Point Company unprofitable with an operating loss of $74,000.  This loss cannot be compared to the total operating income of $105,000 which is made with the industrial systems.  So, it is not the Industrial System Product line that is causing Safety Point Company to record a loss of $56,000.  It is the fixed cost of $60,000 which cannot be eliminated with the elimination of the Industrial System product line that causes the loss and reduces total operating for the company.

The problem with average-cost pricing regulation is that once it is in place, there is a tendency for the:________


a. ATC curve to shift upward.

b. MR curve to shift leftward.

c. D curve to shift leftward.

d. ATC curve to shift downward.

e. D curve to shift rightward.

Answers

Answer:

a.  ATC curve to shift upward

Explanation:

Average cost pricing is a form of pricing that appears as one of the ways in which the government operates a monopoly market. The government, however, may utilize average cost pricing as a tool to oversee prices monopolists may charge.

In other words, this implies that Monopolists always incline to produce less than the optimal amount boosting the prices up.

Hence, the problem with average-cost pricing regulation is that once it is in place, there is a tendency for the: "Average Total Cost curve to shift upward." This can be a result of an increase in output and reduction price

Each extra worker produces an extra unit of output up to six workers. After six, no additional output is produced. Draw the total product of labor, average product of labor, and marginal product of labor curves.

Answers

Answer:

attached is the diagram

Explanation:

Each extra worker produces an extra unit of output, is said to be the marginal production of an extra worker employed

marginal production  :

change in total production / change in labor = ΔTp / ΔL

Average production = Tp / L

Tp = total production ,  L = number of labor

To draw the Total product of labor , average product labor and marginal product labor curves starting from zero labor

0 worker : Total product = 0, average product labor = 0 , marginal = 0

1 worker : Total product = 1, average product = 1 , marginal = 0

2 worker : Total product = 2, average product = 1, marginal = 1

3 workers: total product = 3 average product = 1, marginal = 1

4 workers: Total product = 4, average product = 1, marginal = 1

5 workers : Total product = 5 average product = 1, marginal = 1

6 workers : total product = 6 average product = 1 , marginal = 1

7 workers : total product = 7 , average product = 0.85, marginal = 0

8 workers : total product = 8, average product = 0.75 marginal = 0

Sally Rubber Co. has an expected net operating profit after taxes, EBIT (1-T), of $1,700 million in the coming year. In addition, the firm is expected to have net capital expenditures of $255 million, and net operating working capital (NOWC) is expected to increase by $45 million. How much free cash flow (FCF) is Sally Rubber Co. expected to generate over the next year?

Answers

Answer:

$1,400 million

Explanation:

Calculation for free cash flow (FCF)

Using this formula

Free cash flow= Net income+ Non cash expenses-Net capital expenditures- Increase in Net operating working capital

Let plug in the formula

Free cash flow=$1,700 million + $0 million -$255 million -$45 million

Free cash flow =$1,400 million

Therefore the amount of free cash flow (FCF) that Sally Rubber Co. expected to generate over the next year will be $1,400 million

What is the standard deviation of a portfolio's returns if the mean return is 15%, and the variance of returns is 184

Answers

Answer:

Standard deviation  =13.6

Explanation:

Standard deviation is measure of the total risks of an investment. It measures the volatility in return of an investment as a result of both systematic and non-systematic risks.

Non-systematic risk includes risk that are unique to a company like poor management, legal suit against the company .

Standard deviation is the sum of the squared deviation of the individual return from the mean return under different scenarios .

Further more, it can be calculated as the square root of the variance of the portfolio.

Standard deviation = √ variance

DATA

Variance = 184

Standard deviation = √184 = 13.6

Standard deviation  =13.6

George Hansen is General Manager for the Marigold Inn in Augusta, Georgia. Sharon Coombs is Restaurant and Food Services manager for the Inn. She reports to George. Two years ago, Sharon noticed a decline in room service business, the highest margin potion of her operation. This decline coincided with an increase in the national sales of pizza delivery and carryout firms as well as an increase in the number of empty pizza boxes from these firms being left in guest rooms in the Inn. Her immediate response was to install a pizza oven in the kitchen and offer room service pizza to guests. The effort met with modest success, though it was well below her expectations. Questionnaires completed by departing guests revealed a problem of product quality.
Focusing on this problem, Sharon improved the Inn’s pizza until blind tests judged it at least equal in quality to the products of the two major pizza delivery competitors in Augusta. Sales did not improve, convincing Sharon that the problem was a perceived mismatch between the hotel’s image and guests’ expectations of pizza makers. Guests simply did not seem to believe that the traditional steak and seafood restaurant at the Inn could make a high-quality, authentic pizza.
Based on this conclusion, Sharon presented the following proposal to George:
"Sales of room service pizza are stagnant due to guests’ misperception that our product is lower in quality than that of competitors. This misperception is based on the belief that until we disassociate our pizza from the Marigold Inn name. Therefore, to capture more room service pizza business, we should create a ‘Napoli Pizza’ image for our guest room delivery service by:
Preparing ‘Napoli Pizza’ brochures for each guest room, complete with a phone number with a prefix different from that of Marigold Inn. The number will reach a special phone in room service, which will be answered, ‘Napoli Pizza, authentic Italian pizza from old, family recipes.’
Using special ‘Napoli Pizza’ boxes for delivering room service pizza to guests.
Issuing ‘Napoli Pizza’ hats and jackets to room service personnel for use in pizza delivery. Room service waiters and waitresses will wear these garments to deliver pizza. They will change to their regular uniforms for other deliveries.

Explanation:

This is the best logical suggestion to George because, the guests already had the impression that, the inn cannot be able to produce a very high quality and tasty pizza. Preparing "Napoli Pizza" with different information from the Inn is best alternative. the guest would believe that, the pizza is coming from another quality pizza making company.

When required, round to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities  = fixed assets / long term liabilities = $971,600 / $694,000 = 1.4

Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity = total liabilities / stockholders' equity = $834,000 / $2,780,000  = 0.3

Asset turnover = net sales / average total assets = $21,141,000 / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 6  

Return on total assets = (net income + interest expense) / average total assets =  ($386,000 + $41,640) / [($3,614,000 + $3,433,000)/2] = 12.14%

Return on stockholders’ equity = net income / average stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($2,780,000 + $2,558,000) = 14.46%

Return on common stockholders' equity = net income / average common stockholders' equity = $386,000 / [($1,946,000 + $1,724,000) = 21.04%

Erosion costs. Fat Tire Bicycle Company currently sells bicycles per year. The current bike is a standard​ balloon-tire bike selling for ​$​, with a production and shipping cost of ​$. The company is thinking of introducing an​ off-road bike with a projected selling price of ​$ and a production and shipping cost of ​$. The projected annual sales for the​ off-road bike are . The company will lose sales in​ fat-tire bikes of units per year if it introduces the new​ bike, however. What is the erosion cost from the new​ bike? Should Fat Tire start producing the​ off-road bike? What is the erosion cost from the new​ bike?

Answers

Answer:

A. $1,725,000

B. Yes

Explanation:

Calculation for the erosion cost from the new​ bike

First step to find the erosion cost

Using this formula

Erosion cost =(Sales-Production and shipping cost )*Loss of sales units per year

Let plug in the formula

Erosion cost=(100-40)*7,500

Erosion cost=60*7,500

Erosion  cost= $450,000

Second step is to calculate for the Net annual Cash flow using this formula

Net annual cash flow= (Projected selling price-Production and shipping cost)*Projected annual sales-Erosion cost

Let plug in the formula

Net annual cash flow= (370-225)*15,000 - 450,000

Net annual cash flow =145*15,000-450,000

Net annual cash flow =2,175,000-450,000

Net annual cash flow=$1,725,000

B.Yes Fat Tire start producing the​ off-road bike

Because the net annual cash flow is positive

If the current interest rate is 5% and your semi-annual coupon paying bond has a duration of 5.33 years, how much will the price of the bond change if the interest rate increases by 1 basis point?

Answers

Answer:

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * 0.00005

Explanation:

Percentage change in price = - modified duration * (Change in yield in BP/100)

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * ((0.01/2)/100)

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * (0.005/100)

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * 0.00005

The capitalized cost of $10,000 every 5 years forever, starting now at an interest rate of 10% per year, is closest to

Answers

Answer:

$15,000

Explanation:

Capitalized cost = Initial cost + Interest.

Initial cost = Principal - $10,000

Interest = Principal * Rate * Time/100

Given Principal = $10,000

Rate (in %) = 10%

Time (in years) = 5 years

Interest = 10,000*10*5/100

Interest = $5000

Capitalized cost = Initial cost + Interest.

Capitalized cost = $10,000+$5,000

Capitalized cost = $15,000

Hence the capitalized cost of $10,000 every 5 years forever, starting now at an interest rate of 10% per year, is closest to $15,000

the construction of a 1000 suit luxury hotel requires the installation of 12 outlets and 6 light fictures per suit . The companys standard productivity for a two electrician crew is 20 minutes per light fixture and 30 minutes per outlet. Using eighteen crews working at a 0.8 efficiency factor and a 10hr work day with a half an hour lunch break , the duration of this construction activity (days,hours) is most nearly how much

Answers

Answer:

Hours = 8000

Days = 46.78

Explanation:

The duration of this construction activity can be calculated as follows

DATA

No. of suits = 1000

Outlets to be installed = 12/suit

Standard productivity for outlet = 30mins

Fixtures to be installed = 6/suit

Standard productivity light fixture = 20mins

Working hours per day = 10 hours - 0.5 lunch break

Working hours per day = 9.5 hours

No. of crews = 18

Solution

Total time to fix = No.of suits x no. of installations x Standard time

Total time to fix = (1000 x 12 x 30mins ) + ( 1000 x 6 x 20mins)

Total time to fix = 480000 mins

Total time to fix = 480000/60mins = 8000 hours

Duration in days = Total time / (hrs per day x mo. of crews)

Duration in days = 8000 hours / (9.5 x 18)

Duration in days = 8000/171

Duration in days = 46.78 days

What is the internal rate of return of a project costing $3,000; having after-tax cash flows of $1,500 in each of the two years of its two-year life; and a salvage value of $800at the end of the second year in addition to the $1,500 cash flow

Answers

Answer:

Internal rate of return =  16.3%

Explanation:

The IRR is the discount rate that equates the present value of cash inflows to that of cash outflows. At the IRR, the Net Present Value (NPV) of a project is equal to zero  

If the IRR greater than the required rate of return , we accept the project for implementation  

If the IRR is less than that the required rate , we reject the project for implementation  

IRR = a% + ( NPVa/(NPVa + NPVb)× (b-a)%

Step 1 : Calculate NPVa at 10%

NPV = PV of cash inflow - Initial cost

PV of cash inflow = 1500× ( 1- 1.1^(-2))/0.1=2,603.31

PV of salvage value = 800×  1.1^(-2) =661.16

NPV = 2,603.31 + 6,661.16  - 3000= 264.46

Step 2 :Calculate NPVb at 20%

PV of cash inflow = 1500× ( 1- 1.2^(-2))/0.2=2291.67

PV of salvage value = 800×  1.2^(-2) =555.56

NPV =2291.67 + 555.56  - 3,000  = -152.78

Step 3 : Calculate IRR

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

Answers

Answer:

$9,236.71

Explanation:

The computation of the maturity value of the note is shown below:-

Interest Amount = ($9000 × 8%) × 120 ÷ 365

= $720 × 120 ÷ 365

= $236.71

So, the Maturity Value is

= Face value + Interest amount

= $9,000 + $236.71

= $9,236.71

Therefore for computing the maturity value we simply applied the above formula.

Link Co. purchased machinery that cost $3,000,000 on January 4, 2016. The entire cost was recorded as an expense. The machinery has a nine-year life and a $200,000 residual value. The error was discovered on December 20, 2018. Ignore income tax considerations. Before the correction was made, and before the books were closed on December 31, 2018, retained earnings was understated by:_________.a. $3,000,000.
b. $2,066,667.
c. $2,377,778
d. $2,333,333.

Answers

Answer:

c. $2,377,778

Explanation:

Recording the entire cost as expense would have understated Retained Earnings by $3,000,000

Annual Depreciation on machine = Purchase cost - Residual value / Useful life

= ($3,000,000 - $200,000) / 9

= $311,111

Depreciation would have been recorded for $622222 for 2 years had machinery been correctly recorded ($311,111 * 2) = $622,222

On December 20, 2018, the net understatement of Retained Earnings = $3,000,000 - $622,222

= $2,377,778

Last year Harrington Inc. had sales of $325,000 and a net income of $19,000, and its year-end assets were $250,000. The firm's total-debt-to-total-capital ratio was 15.0%. The firm finances using only debt and common equity and its total assets equal total invested capital. Based on the DuPont equation, what was the ROE

Answers

Answer:

8.94%

Explanation:

Firstly, we will need to find total equity and total debt of Harrington Inc inorder to apply the Dupont equation for getting ROE

Harrington's total debt = 15.00 % × $250,000

= $37,500

Harrington's total equity will be; applying accounting equation

Asset = Liabilities + Owner's equity

Owner's equity = Assets - Liabilities

= $250,000 - $37,500

= $212,500

Therefore, using the Dupont equation, we can calculate the ROE as;

(NI/Sales) × (Sales/Total assets) × (Total assets/Total common equity)

= 19,000/325,000 × 325,000 /250,000 × 250,000/212,500

= 8.94%

the price of envelopes was $3 a box, and Julie was willing to buy 10 boxes. Today, the price has gone up to $3.75 a box, and Julie is now willing to buy 8 boxes. Is Julie's demand for envelopes elastic or inelastic? What is Julie's elasticity of demand?​

Answers

Answer:

Her elasticity of demand is the absolute value of -0.8, or 0.8. Julie's elasticity of demand is inelastic, since it is less than 1.

Explanation:

% Change in Quantity = (8 - 10)/(10) = -0.20 = -20%

% Change in Price = (3.75 - 3.00)/(3.00) = 0.25 = 25%

Elasticity = |(-20%)/(25%)| = |-0.8| = 0.8

"A customer has an existing short margin account with credits of $16,000 and a short position in ABC stock worth $10,000. The SMA in the account is $1,000. If the market value of ABC falls to $9,000, the equity is:"

Answers

Answer:

Equity= $7,000

Explanation:

A customer has an existing short margin account that contains credit of $16,000

The short position in ABC stock is worth $10,000

The SMA in the account is $1,000

Therefore, if the market value of ABC falls down to $9,000 then, the equity can be calculated as follows

Equity= $16,000-$9,000

=$7,000

Hence the equity is $7,000
