Mohave Corp. is considering outsourcing production of the umbrella tote bag included with some of its products. The company has received a bid from a supplier in Vietnam to produce 8,000 units per year for $7.50 each. Mohave has the following information about the cost of producing tote bags:
Direct materials $3
Direct labor 2
Variable manufacturing overhead 1
Fixed manufacturing overhead 2
Total cost per unit $8
Mohave has determined that all variable costs could be eliminated by outsourcing the tote bags, while 60 percent of the fixed overhead cost is unavoidable. At this time, Mohave has no specific use in mind for the space currently dedicated to producing the tote bags.
Required:
1. Compute the difference in cost between making and buying the umbrella tote bag.
2. Based strictly on the incremental analysis, should Mohave buy the tote bags or continue to make them?
3. Suppose that the space Mohave currently uses to make the bags could be utilized by a new product line that would generate $10,000 in annual profits. Recompute the difference in cost between making and buying the umbrella tote bag. Does this change your recommendation to Mohave? If so, how?
4. Assume Mohave has a sustainability goal to increase the percentage of spending from local suppliers. If Mohave’s managers are responsible for improving this metric, how might it impact their sourcing decisions?
5. What other strategic or sustainability-related goals should Mohave consider before making a final decision?

Diminishing returns are a reason that fixed costs remain constant. the marginal cost curve is upward sloping. the average fixed cost curve is downward sloping. the marginal cost curve is downward sloping.

Answers

Answer:

the marginal cost curve is upward sloping.

Explanation:

Utility can be defined as any satisfaction or benefits a customer derives from the use of a product or service.

This ultimately implies that, any satisfaction or benefits a customer derives from the use of a product or service is generally referred to as a utility.

Basically, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.

For example, buying a candy stick and eating it may satisfy your cravings but eating another one (an additional or extra unit) wouldn't give you as much satisfaction as the first due to diminishing marginal utility.

In Economics, the law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.

Marginal cost can be defined as the additional or extra cost that is being incurred by a company as a result of the production of an additional unit of a product or service.

Generally, marginal cost can be calculated by dividing the change in production costs by the change in level of output or quantity. A marginal cost curve is upward sloping because of the law of diminishing returns.

What is the Investment in Mopsy Co. balance as of December 31, 2020, if the equity method has been applied

Answers

Answer:

$1,609,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the Investment in Mopsy Co. balance as of December 31, 2020, if the equity method has been applied

First step is to calculate the Unrecorded Patents Amortization

Unrecorded Patents Amortization

=$1,400,000-[($6,400,000 - $3,000,000)×30%] /10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization

=$1,400,000- ($3,400,000 × 30%)/10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization

=$1,400,000 - $1,020,000/10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization = $380,000 / 10 years

Unrecorded Patents Amortization= $38,000

Now let determine the Investment

Investment=$1,400,000 + $180,000 + $225,000 - $60,000 - $60,000 - $38,000 - $38,000

Investment= $1,609,000

Therefore the Investment in Mopsy Co. balance as of December 31, 2020, if the equity method has been applied is $1,609,000

If the coupon rate on a bond is higher than the yield to maturity, Multiple Choice the bond sells at a discount. the coupon rate on the bond has decreased. interest rates have probably increased since the bond was issued. the current yield on the bond is lower now than when the bond was originally issued.

Answers

Answer:

the current yield on the bond is lower now than when the bond was originally issued.

Explanation:

A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (investor or creditor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time. The bond issuer are expected to return the principal (face value) at maturity with an agreed upon interest (coupon), which are paid at fixed intervals.

A yield to maturity can be defined as the bond's total rate of return required by the secondary market while the coupon rate is defined as the annual interest of a bond divided by its face value.

Hence, if the coupon rate on a bond is higher than the yield to maturity, the current yield on the bond is lower now than when the bond was originally issued.

Consider using income approach to compute US GDP. Suppose there is a Mexican citizen working at a US firrm located in US, and earned wages of $500. There is also a US citizen that earns wages of $800 in a Mexican firm located in Mexico. If US GNP is $3000, what is US GDP?

Answers

Answer:

According to the information in the text, the US GDP would be $500, because GDP only accounts for all the goods and services produced within the country, or under the income approach, for all the forms of income (rent, dividends, wages) earned by nationals or foreigners in domestic soil.

In this case, the Mexican citizen working in the US and earning $500 adds the same amount to US GDP of that year regardless of his nationality.

Also, a 90-day put option with an exercise price of $.73 and a premium of $.01 is available. Quasik plans to purchase options to hedge its receivable position. Assuming that the spot rate in 90 days is $.71, what is the net amount received from the currency option hedge

Answers

Answer:

216000

Explanation:

($.73 - $.01) x 300,000

The net amount received from the currency option hedge is $216,000.

What is a call option?

A call option is a contract that grants the option buyer the right to purchase an underlying asset at a particular price and time period.

A call option grants you the right, but not the obligation, to buy a stock at a specified price known as the strike price by a specific date at the expiration of the option.

According to the given question, Quasik intends to hedge its receivable position by purchasing options. Because Quasi will get CAD in the future, it should purchase a put option, or the right to sell.

Put option purchase cost = 0.01 * 300,000

                                           = 3,000

Because the spot rate is $0.71 per CAD after 90 days, Quasik will exercise its option at the rate of $0.73 per USD.

Received amount = 0.73 * 300,000

                             = 219,000

After deducting the cost of purchasing the option, the net amount received is,

= 219,000 - 3,000

= 216,000.

The is $216,000 is the net gain from the currency option hedge.

Answers

Answer: the supply of the output from the hydroelectric power plants to increase.

Explanation:

The hydroelectric power operators are incurring the cost of cleaning the river before they can use it. This cost is money that they could be investing in the business in order to produce more power.

If the government corrects the externality and limits the amount of waste being thrown into the river, the hydroelectric company would be able to invest the expenses it was incurring in clean up into generating more power which would lead to a higher supply of output from the power station.

MC Qu. 157 West Company estimates that overhead costs... West Company estimates that overhead costs for the next year will be $3,600,000 for indirect labor and $880,000 for factory utilities. The company uses machine hours as its overhead allocation base. Of 125,000 machine hours are planned for this next year, what is the company's plantwide overhead rate

Answers

Answer:

$35,84 per machine hour

Explanation:

Plantwide overhead rate = Budgeted overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity

where,

Budgeted overheads = $3,600,000 + $880,000 = $4,480,000

Budgeted Activity = 125,000 machine hours

therefore,

Plantwide overhead rate = $4,480,000 ÷ 125,000

                                         = $35,84 per machine hour

Sassy, Inc. needs $115 million to build a new distribution center. If it issues common stock to raise the funds, the issuance costs will be 8 percent of the total amount issued. If Sassy can issue stock at $40 per share, how many shares of common stock must be issued so that it has $115 million after flotation costs to use to fund the construction of the distribution center

Answers

Answer: 3,125,000 shares.

Explanation:

The number of shares of common stock that must be issued will be calculated as follows:

Let the amount to be raised be represented by x. Therefore,

x - (8% × x) = $115 million

x - (0.08 × x) = $115 million

x - 0.08x = $115 million

0.92x = $115 million

x = $115 million/0.92

x = $125 million

Then the number of shares that'll be issued will be:

= Amount raised / Issue price of stock.

= $125 million / 40

= 3,125,000 shares.

Underapplied overhead       17,600

Total costs   $222,600   $222,600

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Predetermined overhead rate per machine-hour = $2.50

Estimated total manufacturing overhead = $217,500

Estimated activity level = 87,000

Actual results from production during the year:

Machine-hours worked = 82,000

Applied overhead costs = $205,000 (82,000 * $2.50)

Total manufacturing costs incurred = $222,600

Underapplied overhead = $17,600

What is the present value of an investment that will pay $2,000 at the end of the year when interest is compounded annually at 5.10%

Answers

Answer:

the present value of an investment is $1,902.94

Explanation:

The computation of the present value of an investment is given below:

present value

= Future value ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^time period

=$2,000 ÷ (1+.051)^1

= $2,000 ÷ 1.051

= $1902.94

Hence, the present value of an investment is $1,902.94

If two firms are identical in all respects except that one has more of the fixed input capital than another, the marginal product curve for the firm with more capital: Group of answer choices will lie above the marginal product curve for the firm with less capital. must equal the marginal product curve for the firm with less capital. will lie below the total marginal curve for the firm with less capital. will show no diminishing marginal returns.

Answers

Answer: will lie above the marginal product curve for the firm with less capital.

Explanation:

Capital is needed to produce goods and services and ideally speaking, when more capital is invested, more goods and services will be able to be produced because more should bring in more.

It is the same case here, if the companies are similar in everything except capital invested, the company with more capital will be able to produce more goods and services which will lead to their marginal product curve lying above the marginal product curve of the company with less capital.

A government bond issued in France has a coupon rate of 5% (paid annually) and a face value of 100 euros, and it matures in 5 years. Calculate the price of the bond (in euros) if the yield to maturity is 3.5%.

Answers

Answer:

Bond Price​= 106.77

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Face value= 100

Coupon= 100*0.05= 5

Yield To Maturity= 0.035

Years to maturity= 5 years

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:

Bond Price​= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]

Bond Price​= 5*{[1 - (1.035^-5)] / 0.035} + [100/(1.035^5)]

Bond Price​= 22.57 + 84.2

Bond Price​= 106.77

g A person with a diminishing marginal utility of income: Group of answer choices will be risk neutral will be risk averse will be risk loving

Answers

Answer: Risk averse

Explanation:

A person with a diminishing marginal utility of income will derive less utility from income as income increases. A risk averse person is one who would rather avoid risk but still prefers a high income.

Such a person will have a diminishing marginal utility in income because income increases more when there is more risk. A risk averse person does not want that risk and so will go for a lower income which means that they don't want more income as it is riskier to them.

Hammond Lumber has just changed from prefabricating 8 gazebos to 10 gazebos (units). Their total costs changed from $9,500 to $11,000. What is the marginal cost for Hammond Lumber?

Answers

Answer:

MC = 750

Explanation:

Below is the given values:

Initial quantity = 8

Final quantity = 10

Initial total cost = $9500

Final total cost = $11000

Marginal cost = Change in total cost / Change in quantity

Change in total cost = 11000 - 9500 = 1500

Change in quantity = 10 - 8 = 2

Marginal cost = Change in total cost / Change in quantity

MC = 1500 / 2

MC = 750

The Hi-Stakes Company has a number of importing and exporting transactions. Importing activities result in payables and exporting activities result in receivables. (LCU represents the local currency unit of the foreign entity.)

Required:
If the direct exchange rate increases, does the dollar weaken or strengthen relative to the other currency? If the indirect exchange rate increases, does the dollar weaken or strengthen relative to the other currency?

Answers

Answer:

The Hi-Stakes Company

a. If the direct exchange rate increases, the dollar strengthens relative to the other currency.

b. If the indirect exchange rate increases, the dollar also strengthens relative to the other currency.

Explanation:

When the exchange rate increases, it means that more of the other currency is required in order to embark on importing and exporting transactions.  However, the increases will weaken the ability of the importing currency to afford the dollar-based goods, which have then being made more expensive.

The following information is available regarding the total manufacturing overhead of Molsen Company for a recent four-month period. Molsen's projected August operations will require approximately 110,000 machine hours. Using the high-low method, compute total manufacturing overhead estimated for August. Group of answer choices $177,500. $187,500. $197,500. $198,000.

Answers

Answer:

$198,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the total manufacturing overhead estimated for August is

First step is to calculate the Variable element

Variable element=($198,000 - $153,000)/(110,000 - 80,000)

Variable element=$45,000/30,000

Variable element= $1.50

Second step is to calculate the Fixed element

Fixed element=$198,000 - ($1.50 x 110,000)

Fixed element=$198,000-$165,000

Fixed element = $33,000

Now let compute total manufacturing overhead

Total manufacturing overhead=$33,000 + ($1.50 x 110,000)

Total manufacturing overhead=$33,000+$165,000

Total manufacturing overhead= $198,000

Therefore Using the high-low method, compute total manufacturing overhead estimated for August is $198,000

Recher Corporation uses part Q89 in one of its products. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the 9,900 units of the part that are needed every year. Per Unit Direct materials $ 6.30 Direct labor $ 3.50 Variable overhead $ 6.90 Supervisor's salary $ 2.60 Depreciation of special equipment $ 2.20 Allocated general overhead $ 1.20 An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $22.00 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $4,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided. In addition, the space used to produce part Q89 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $16,200 per year for that product.
Required:
a. Prepare a report that shows the financial impact of buying part Q89 from the supplier rather than continuing to make it inside the company.
b. Which alternative should the company choose

Blart Corp. recently paid a dividend of $5.00 per share. Analysts forecast future dividends will increase by 2% forever. The required rate of return that investors demand to hold Blart Corp.'s stock is 8% What is its estimated price per share today

Answers

Answer: $85.0

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the estimated price per share today will be:

Po = Do (1 + g) / (r - g)

Where,

Po = Current price

Do = Current dividend = 5.00

g = Dividend growth = 2% = 0.02

r = Required rate of return = 8% = 0.08

Therefore, the estimated price per share today will be:

= 5.00(1 + 0.02) / (0.08 - 0.02)

= 5.00(1.02) / 0.06

= 5.10 / 0.06

= 85.00

Therefore, the answer is $85
