Lot’s Wife Manufacturing produces rear-view video systems for buses. The firm’s cost function is TC = 2,000 + 120 Q. If the systems sell for $145, what is the break-even rate of production?

Answers

Answer:

80

Explanation:

in this question we have the cost function to be

TC = 2,000 + 120 Q.

breakeven point is at total cost = total revenue

total revenue = p*q

= 145 *Q= 145Q

tc = total cost = 145Q

145Q = 2000 + 120Q

We collect like terms from this equation above

145Q-120Q= 2000

25Q = 2000

divide through by 25

Q = 2000/25

q = 80

the breakeven rate of production is 80 quantities.

a. The expected rate of return will be higher for the stock of Kaskin, Inc., than that of Quinn, Inc.
b. The stock of Kaskin, Inc., has more total risk than Quinn, Inc.
c. The stock of Quinn, Inc., has more systematic risk than that of Kaskin, Inc.

Answers

Answer: a. The expected rate of return will be higher for the stock of Kaskin, Inc., than that of Quinn, Inc.

Explanation:

The beta of a stock measures its systematic risk which is its risk in relation to the market. With a higher systematic risk, there would be a higher expected return to compensate for this risk.

The beta is used to calculate the expected return in the CAPM formula:

Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta * Market premium

Note how the higher the beta, the higher the expected return based on the above formula.

Baxter Co. wants to issue new 20-year bonds for some much-needed expansion projects. The company currently has 5.6 percent coupon bonds on the market that sell for $1,094.30,page 160 make semiannual payments, and mature in 20 years. What coupon rate should the company set on its new bonds if it wants them to sell at par

Answers

Answer:

The coupon rate the company should set on its new bonds if it wants them to sell at par is 4.86%.

Explanation:

The coupon rate can be determined by calculating the yield to maturity (YTM) using the following RATE function in Excel:

YTM = RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv) * Number of semiannuals in a year = RATE(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)*2 .............(1)

Where;

YTM = yield to maturity = ?

nper = number of periods = number of years to maturity * number of semiannuals in a year = 20 * 2 = 40

pmt = semiannual coupon payment = face value * (annual coupon rate / number of semiannuals in a year) = 1000 * (5.6% / 2) = 28

pv = present value = current bond price = $1,094.30 = 1094.30

fv = face value of the bond = 1000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

YTM = RATE(40,28,-1094.30,1000)*2

Inputting =RATE(40,28,-1094.30,1000)*2 into excel (Note: as done in the attached excel file), we have

YTM = 4.86%

Therefore, the coupon rate the company should set on its new bonds if it wants them to sell at par is 4.86%.

The quantity demanded of cereal increased from 1,350 to 1,700 when the price of milk decreased from $2.05 to $1.65. What is the estimated cross-price elasticity of demand for cereal

Answers

Answer:

-1.33

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.

If cross price elasticity of demand is positive, it means that the goods are -substitute goods.

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.

If the cross-price elasticity is negative, it means that the goods are complementary goods.

Complementary goods are goods that are consumed together

Cross Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded of good A / percentage change in price of good B

percentage change in quantity demanded of good = (1700/ 1350) - 1 = 0.259

percentage change in price = (1.65 / 2.05) - 1 = -0.195

0.259 / -0.195 = -1.33

Tracey Sales Co. has predicted the following costs for this year for 500,000 units: Manufacturing Selling and Administrative Variable $ 800,000 $250,000 Fixed 1,200,000 300,000 Total $2,000,000 $550,000 What is the markup on variable manufacturing costs needed to break even

Answers

Answer: 218.75%

Explanation:

In order to breakeven, the variable manufacturing cost would have to be the same as the fixed costs in addition to the administrative costs.

= Fixed costs + Administrative cost

= 1,200,000 + 550,000

= $1,750,000

Variable cost needs to be $1,750,000

It is currently at $800,000 so it needs to increase by:

= 1,750,000 / 800,000 * 100%

= 218.75%

A disadvantage of the line structure is that it

Answers

Answer:

Disadvantages of a Line Organization

A line organization can suffer from a lack of specialization. This is because each department manager is concerned only with the activities of his own department. Therefore, employees are skilled in tasks pertaining to their departments alone.

These organizations can overburden a keyman or a few key-men to the extent of their breaking point. Also, in the absence of a staff aid, if a strong man seizes the organization, he can run it arbitrarily. Such arbitrary power can lead to a considerable damage to the organization.

Such organizations usually suffer from a lack of expert advice. If the line manager has trouble making a decision, there is no expert staff that he can turn to.

A line organization is usually rigid and inflexible. In fact, such organizations maintain discipline so rigorously that they can rarely change.

These organizations are based on the autocratic system of management.

The division of work is not based on any scientific plan but on the whims of the manager.

It might stop progress and prevent the unit to work effectively.

Such organizations might also encourage nepotism or favoritism based on relationship or friendship.

On the basis of this information, what were total maintenance costs when the company experienced 23,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $34.30 per hour. When activity jumped to 27,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $27.30.

a. On the basis of this information, the variable cost per machine hour was:___________
b. On the basis of this information, the fixed cost was:___________-
c. On the basis of this information, what were total maintenance costs when the company experienced 25,000 machine hours?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total cost for each activity level:

High activity level= 27,000*27.3= $737,100

Low activity level= 23,000*34.3= $788,900

Now, using the high-low method, we can determine the variable and fixed costs:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (788,900 - 737,100) / (27,000 - 23,000)

Variable cost per unit= $12.95 per machine-hour

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

Fixed costs= 788,900 - (12.95*27,000)

Fixed costs= $439,250

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

Fixed costs= 737,100 - (12.95*23,000)

Fixed costs= $439,250

Finally, for 25,000 hours:

Total cost= 439,250 + 12.95*2,5000

Total cost= $763,000

. A new bond issue is being issued at a market price of $922 with a 11.4% interest rate and will be due in 16 years. If the firm has a 32 percent tax rate, calculate the after-tax cost of debt.

Answers

Answer:

8.53%

Explanation:

Par value = $1000

Current bond = $922

Coupon = 1000*11.4% = $114

Years = 16

Pretax cost of debt = YTM(Nper, PMT, -PV, FV)

Pretax cost of debt = YTM(16, 114, -922, 1000)

Pretax cost of debt = 0.1255

Pretax cost of debt = 12.55%

After tax cost of debt = Pretax cost of debt * (1 - Tax rate)

After tax cost of debt = 12.55% * (1 - 32%)

After tax cost of debt = 0.1255 * 0.68

After tax cost of debt = 0.08534

After tax cost of debt = 8.53%

a. 12,900.
b. 4,577.
c. 7,095.
d. 6,050.

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 12,900

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total fixed cost (per period) $ 851,400

Variable cost per unit $ 120.00

Sales price per unit $ 186.00

To calculate the break-even point, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 851,400 / (186 - 120)

Break-even point in units= 12,900

Answer: 12900

Explanation:

From the information given, we'll first calculate the contribution per unit which will be:

= Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

= $186 - $120

= $ 66

Then, the break even sales in units will be: = Fixed cost/Contribution per unit

= 851,400 / 66

= 12,900

Therefore, the breakeven is 12900

Sweet Treats common stock is currently priced at $17.15 a share. The company just paid $1.22 per share as its annual dividend. The dividends have been increasing by 2.4 percent annually and are expected to continue doing the same. What is this firm's cost of equity

Answers

Answer:

9.68 percent

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the firm's cost of equity

Using this formula

Cost of equity=[(Annual dividend×Increase in dividends×/Current price of common stock]+Dividends

Let plug in the formula

Cost of equity=[($1.22 × 1.024)/$17.15] + 0.024

Cost of equity=($1.24928/$17.15)+0.024

Cost of equity=0.0728+0.024

Cost of equity=0.0968*100

Cost of equity=9.68 percent

Therefore the firm's cost of equity is 9.68 percent

Neptune Company produces toys and other items for use in beach and resort areas. A small, inflatable toy has come onto the market that the company is anxious to produce and sell. The new toy will sell for $3.30 per unit. Enough capacity exists in the company’s plant to produce 30,200 units of the toy each month. Variable expenses to manufacture and sell one unit would be $2.08, and fixed expenses associated with the toy would total $54,766 per month. The company's Marketing Department predicts that demand for the new toy will exceed the 30,200 units that the company is able to produce. Additional manufacturing space can be rented from another company at a fixed expense of $2,738 per month. Variable expenses in the rented facility would total $2.31 per unit, due to somewhat less efficient operations than in the main plant.
Required:
1. What is the monthly break-even point for the new toy in unit sales and dollar sales?
2. How many units must be sold each month to attain a target profit of $12,474 per month?
3. If the sales manager receives a bonus of 20 cents for each unit sold in excess of the break-even point, how many units must be sold each month to attain a target profit that equals a 29% return on the monthly investment in fixed expenses?

Answers

Answer:

1) Break-even point in unit sales: 51,680 units

  Break-even point in dollar sales: $144,704

2) The units that must be sold each month to attain a target profit of $12,474 per month are:

= 63,669 units

3) The units that must be sold each month to attain a target profit that equals a 29% return on the monthly investment in fixed expenses are:

= 108,574 units

Explanation:

 1. On the first 30,200 units  

Sales price              $3.30

Variable expenses     $2.08

Contribution margin   $1.22

 

Above 30,200 units  

Sales price               $3.30

Variable expenses       $2.31

Contribution margin    $0.99

Fixed cost for initial 30,200 units = $54,766

Less: Contribution Margin (30,200 units * $1.22) + $36,844

Remaining uncovered cost = $17,922 ($54,766 - $36,844)

Monthly rental for additional space = $2,738

Total fixed costs covered by remaining sales = $20,660 ($17,922 + $2,738)

Required units = $20,660 / 0.99 = 20,869 units

Breakeven units = 30,200 + 20,869= 51,069 units

51,069 * $3.3 = $168,528

2)  

Working: $12,474 / 0.99 = 12,600 units

Thus total units = 51,069 + 12,600 = 63,669

3)  

Working: Desired monthly expenses: $54,766 + $2,738 = 57,504

57,504 * 20% = 11,501

Unit contribution margin: 0.99 - 0.20 = 0.79

Contribution margin = Target profit / Unit contribution margin = 11,501 / 0.20 = 57,505 units

51,069 units + 57,505 units = 108,574 units

I am buying a firm with an expected perpetual cash flow of $1,000 but am unsure of its risk. If I think the beta of the firm is 0, when the beta is really 1, how much more will I offer for the firm than it is truly worth? Assume the risk-free rate is 4% and the expected rate of return on the market is 10%. (Input the amount as a positive value.)

Answers

Answer:

$15,000

Explanation:

Value of a perpetuality = cash flow / r

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

4 + 0 (10 - 4) = 4

1,000/ 0.04 = 25,000

4 + 1 (10 - 4) = 10

1000 / 0.1 = 10,000

25,000 - 10,000 = 15,000

Answers

Answer:

a. Weighted-average unit cost = $9.092

b. We have:

Ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO method = $290

Ending inventory at May 31 using the LIFO method = $232

Ending inventory at May 31 using the average-cost method = $264

Explanation:

a. Calculate the weighted-average unit cost. (Round answer to 3 decimal places, e.g. 5.125.)

Weighted-average unit cost = Total Cost of units of inventory available for sale / Total units of units of inventory available for sale = $891 / 98 = $9.092

b. Calculate the ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO, LIFO and average-cost methods. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)

Ending inventory in units = Total units of units of inventory available for sale – Units sold = 98 - 69 = 29

Therefore, we have:

Ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO method = Ending inventory in units * Unit cost of purchases on May 24 = 29 * $10 = $290

Ending inventory at May 31 using the LIFO method = Ending inventory in units * Unit cost of inventory on May 1 = 29 * $8 = $232

Ending inventory at May 31 using the average-cost method = Ending inventory in units * Weighted-average unit cost = 29 * $9.092 = $264

[tex]= (0.5 \times 16\%) + (0.5 \times 4\%)\\\\= (0.5 \times \frac{16}{100}) + (0.5 \times \frac{4}{100})\\\\= \frac{8}{100} + \frac{2}{100}\\\\= \frac{8+2}{100}\\\\= \frac{10}{100}\\\\= \frac{1}{10}\\\\= \frac{1}{10} \times 100\\\\=10\%[/tex]

Paul, the Director of Recruitment at an insurance company, finds that the company has a disparate impact on the proportion of Hispanic employees compared to the proportion of Hispanics in the labor market. Which of the following steps should Paul take to solve the problem most efficiently?
a) He should lower the job specifications for Hispanic applicants.
b) He should continue using the current recruiting practices because only organizations with affirmative action plans are required to meet EEO guidelines.
c) He should start advertising for job openings on the local Spanish radio station.
d) He should freeze the hiring process until qualified Hispanics apply for vacant positions

Answers

Answer: c) He should start advertising for job openings on the local Spanish radio station.

Explanation:

This realization by Paul should make him want to hire more Hispanics into the company and the best way to do so would be to advertise it in such a way that Hispanics have a better chance of hearing about job openings.

Advertising on Spanish radio would ensure that Hispanics hear the advertisements because they are the main ethnicity that speaks Spanish. This will give them an edge in learning about job openings and enable Paul to hire more Hispanics.
