d. no firm in any industry can earn a long-run positive economic profit because all price changes made by any firm will be followed by all of the other firms.
e. all firms in any industry can earn a short-run positive profit if economies of scale exist.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. all firms in any industry can earn short-run but not necessarily long-run positive economic profit. 

Explanation:

A firm economic profit if its accounting profit is greater than opportunity cost.

A firm earns accounting profit if its total revenue is greater than its total explicit cost.

A monopoly and oligopoly can earn positive economic profit in the short and long run because the industries have high barriers to entry and exit of firms.

On the other hand, a perfect competitive industry can earn only economic profit in the short run. Because of low barriers to entry of firms, if a firm is earning economic profit, in the long run new firms would enter into the industry and drive economic profit to zero.

Waterways puts much emphasis on cash flow when it plans for capital investments. The company chose its discount rate of 8% based on the rate of return it must pay its owners and creditors. Using that rate, Waterways then uses different methods to determine the best decisions for making capital outlays.
In 2017 Waterways is considering buying five new backhoes to replace the backhoes it now has. The new backhoes are faster, cost less to run, provide for more accurate trench digging, have comfort features for the operators, and have 1-year maintenance agreements to go with them. The old backhoes are working just fine, but they do require considerable maintenance. The backhoe operators are very familiar with the old backhoes and would need to learn some new skills to use the new backhoes.
The following information is available to use in deciding whether to purchase the new backhoes.
Old Backhoes New Backhoes
Purchase cost when new $90,000 $200,000
Salvage value now $42,000
Investment in major overhaul needed in next year $55,000
Salvage value in 8 years $15,000 $90,000
Remaining life 8 years 8 years
Net cash flow generated each year $30,425 $43,900
Required:
1. Evaluate in the following ways whether to purchase the new equipment or overhaul the old equipment. (Hint: For the old machine, the initial investment is the cost of the overhaul. For the new machine, subtract the salvage value of the old machine to determine the initial cost of the investment.)
a. Using the net present value method for buying new or keeping the old
b. Using the payback method for each choice. (Hint: For the old machine, evaluate the payback of an overhaul.)

You pay $20,800 to the Laramie Fund which has a NAV of $18.00 per share at the beginning of the year. The fund deducted a front-end load of 3.00%. The securities in the fund increased in value by 12% during the year. The fund's expense ratio is 1.50% and is deducted from year end asset values. What is your rate of return on the fund if you sell your shares at the end of the year

Answers

Answer:

6.92%

Explanation:

Beginning investment fund is $20,800.

Now, fund available= Beginning fund(1-front end load)

=20,800(1-0.03)=$20176

Now, the number of shares that can be brought with the available fund

[tex}\text{Number of shares}=\frac{\text{fund available}}{NAV_{beginning}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{20176}{18}[/tex]

=1120

Now calculating closing NAV

NAV(closing)=NAV(beginning)=(1+increased%)

=$18(1+12%)=18×1.12

=$20.16

Calculate year end asset value

Year end asset value =NAV(closing)×No. of shares

=$20.16×1120=$22579.2

Value of investment after deducting the expense ratio

Closing investment value = Year end asset value×(1-expense ratio)

=$22579.2×(1-1.5%)

=$22240.512

Now,

Return on the fund =[(closing investment value)-(Beginning investment fund)]÷Beginning investment fund

=(22240.512-20800)÷20800

=0.0692

or, 6.92%

Due to historical differences, countries often differ in how quickly a change in actual inflation is incorporated into a change in expected inflation. In a country such as Japan, which has had very little inflation in recent memory, it will take longer for a change in the actual inflation rate to be reflected in a corresponding change in the expected inflation rate. In contrast, in a country such as Zimbabwe, which has recently had very high inflation, a change in the actual inflation rate will immediately be reflected in a corresponding change in the expected inflation rate.

Lidell Inc. budgeted production of 48,000 personal journals in 20Y6. Each journal requires assembly. Assume that three minutes are required to assemble each journal. If assembly labor costs $13 per hour, determine the direct labor cost budget for 20Y6. Do not round your intermediate calculations but, if required, round your final answer to the nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer:

Direct labor cost= $31,200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 48,000 units

Standard time= 3 minutes per unit

Rate= $13 per hour

First, we need to calculate the number of hours required:

The proportion of minuted per hour= 3/60= 0.05

Number of hours= 48,000*0.05= 2,400 hours

Now, the direct labor cost:

Direct labor cost= 2,400*13= $31,200

Piedmont Hotels is an all-equity company. Its stock has a beta of .94. The market risk premium is 7.5 percent and the risk-free rate is 3.3 percent. The company is considering a project that it considers riskier than its current operations so it wants to apply an adjustment of 2.5 percent to the project's discount rate. What should the firm set as the required rate of return for the project

Answers

Answer:

Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%

Explanation:

The risk-adjusted discount factor = cost of equity + the adjustment

Cost of equity can be calculated using the capital asset pricing model CAPM

Using the CAPM , the rate of return on equity can be determined as follows:

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)

E(r) =? , Rf- 3.3%, Rm- 7.5%, β- 0.94

Cost of equity = Rf + β (Rm -Rf)

Cost of equity = 3.3% + 0.94×(7.5-3.3)= 7.248

The risk-adjusted discount factor=  7.248 + 2.5= 9.748

Required rate of return for the project = 9.7%

The following information was available on that date: Purchase price of new boiler $140500 Carrying amount of old boiler 8500 Fair value of old boiler 3200 Installation cost of new boiler 21600 The old boiler was sold for $3200. What amount should Concord capitalize as the cost of the new boiler

Answers

Answer:

The amount that Concord should capitalize as the cost of the new boiler is $162,100

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that:

The price of purchasing a new boiler = $140500

The amount of old boiler = 8500

The cost of installation of new boiler = $21600

Old boiler sold for = $3200

During April, the production department of a process operations system completed and transferred to finished goods 18,000 units that were in process at the beginning of April and 90,000 units that were started and completed in April. April's beginning inventory units were 100% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to labor. At the end of April, 30,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor. The beginning inventory included materials cost of $107,000 and the production department incurred direct materials cost of $329,000 during the month. Compute the direct materials cost per equivalent unit for the department using the weighted-average method

Answers

Answer:

Cost per equivalent unit of materials = $3.16

Explanation:

Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.

Cost per equivalent unit = cost / total equivalent units

Total units completed and transferred out= 18,000 + 90000= 108,000

Items                    Unit                                                         Equivalent unit

Completed units    108,000         100% × 108,000 =     108,000

Closing inventory   30,000          100%  ×  30,000 =     30,000

Total equivalent unit of material                                    138,000

Cost per equivalent unit = Total cost/Total equivalent unit

=    (107,000 + 329,000) /138,000 units

= $3.16

Suppose Mr. Lane just bought a share of BlueWind Co., a renewable energy startup. BlueWind promises to pay Mr. Lane $18 in dividends for one year and then the firm will shut down. Suppose that the liquidation value of the share is $3, and the rate of time preference is 5%. Then, according to the single-period dividend discount model, the present value of the cash payment received by Mr. Lane in one year would be

Answers

Answer:

The present value of the cash payment is $20

Explanation:

The present value of cash payment receivable by Mr Lane in one year's time is the today's equivalent amount of the dividend of $18 as well as the liquidation value of $3.

The present value is the total cash inflows multiplied by the discount factor

discount factor=1/(1+r)^n

where is the rate of time preference of 5%'

n is 1 i.e in one year's time

total cash inflows=$18+$3=$21

discount factor =1/(1+5%)^1=0.95238

present value of cash payment=0.95238*$21=$20

The president of Ravens Inc. attended a seminar about the contribution margin model and returned to her company full of enthusiasm about it.

After looking at the statement, the president exclaimed, "I knew it! Division B is a drag on the whole company. Close it down!"
Evaluate the President's remark.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. The president remark in case of the allocated fixed expenses should be ignored the misleading result as it is seen that the division B has suffered a loss of $6,000 due to which the president exclaimed  "I knew it!.

Moreover the president ignored the given information i.e $172,000 included $94,500 that had been split evenly between divisions as they are classified as a general corporate expenses

So if it is split evenly the general corporate expenses for division B is $31,500 which is come from by dividing the $94,500 from 3 divisions

And if we do not allocated the expenses so all divisions would come in profit

In 2020, Marigold Corp., issued for $102 per share, 86000 shares of $100 par value convertible preferred stock. One share of preferred stock can be converted into three shares of Marigold's $25 par value common stock at the option of the preferred stockholder. In August 2021, all of the preferred stock was converted into common stock. The market value of the common stock at the date of the conversion was $30 per share. What total amount should be credited to additional paid-in capital from common stock as a result of the conversion of the preferred stock into common stock?

Answers

Answer:

$2322,000

Explanation:

The computation of amount credited to additional paid-in capital is shown below:-

Amount credited to additional paid-in capital = Issued per share × Number of shares) - (Number if shares × Preferred stock shares converted into three shares × Par value of common stock

= ($102 × 86,000) - (86,000 × 3 × $25)

= $8,772,000 - $6,450,000

= $2322,000

So, for computing the amount credited to additional paid-in capital we simply applied the above formula.

Assume the economy of country C produces hotdogs and buns in the following quantities and prices in 2016 and 2017. Assume also that 2016 is the base year and the real GDP will be calculated using 2016 prices. What is the real GDP 2017? Hot Dogs Buns Quantity Price Quantity Price Year 2016 (base year) 6 million $2 4 million $1 Year 2017 8 million $3 6 million $2 a. $22 million. b. $26 million c. $16 million. d. $36 million.

Answers

Answer:

Option (a).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

Real GDP = Base Year Price × Current Year Quantity

Real GDP in 2016= $2 × 6 million + $1 × 4 million

= $12 million + $4 million = $16 million

Real GDP in 2017 = $2 × 8 million + $1 × 6 million

= $16 million + $6 million = $22 million

According to the analysis, the real GDP in 2017 is $22 million. So (a) option is correct.

Blossom Co. leased machinery from Young, Inc. on January 1, 2020. The lease term was for 8 years, with equal annual rental payments of $5,800 at the beginning of each year. In addition, the lease provides an option to purchase the machinery at the end of the lease term for $1,500, which Blossom is reasonably certain it will exercise as it believes the fair value of the machinery will be at least $5,000. The machinery has a useful life of 10 years and a fair value of $43,000. The implicit rate of the lease is not known to Blossom. Blossom’s incremental borrowing rate is 9%. Prepare Blossom’s 2020 journal entries

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The Journal entry is shown below:-

1. Right of use Dr, $35,743.93

                   To lease liability $35,743.93

(Being lease assets and lease liability is recorded)

Working note as attached using spreadsheet

Here we debited the right of use as it increased the assets and we credited the lease liability as it also increased the liability

2. Lease liability Dr, $5,800

                To Cash $5,800

(Being payment on lease liability is recorded)

Here, we debited the lease liability as it decrease the liability and we credited the cash as  it decreased the asset

3. Interest expenses Dr, $2,694.95

               To Lease liability $2,694.95

(Being interest expenses is recorded)

Here we debited the interest expense as it increased the expenses and we credited the leased liability as it increased the liability

4. Amortization expenses Dr, $3,574.39    ($35,743.93 ÷ 10 )

                 To Right of use $3,574.39

(Being amortization expenses is recorded)

Here we debited the amortization expenses as it increase the expenses and we credited the right of use as it reduced the assets  

Working Note

Interest expenses = (Lease liability - First lease payment) × Incremental borrowing rate

= ($35,743.93 - $5,800) × 9%

= $2,694.95

Bonnie Jo purchased a used camera (five-year property) for use in her sole proprietorship. The basis of the camera was $3,000. Bonnie Jo used the camera in her business 60 percent of the time and used it for personal purposes the rest of the time during the first year. Calculate Bonnie Jo's depreciation deduction during the first year, assuming the sole proprietorship had a loss during the year. (Bonnie did not place the property in service in the last quarter.)

Answers

Answer:

$360

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation deduction during the first year is shown below:

= Basis of the camera × given percentage × weightage

= $3,000 × 60% × 20%

= $360

Since the 60% is used for business and 40% used for personal

And there is a recovery period of assets of 5 years so  half year convention period applies

Stahlmaere Inc. is a start-up company that manufactures simple machines. It is interested in analyzing the profit from a new machine using Monte Carlo simulation. It wants to investigate the profit resulting from a selling price of $150 per unit. The setup and advertising costs are known to total $75,000. They assume that the demand for the product is normally distributed with a mean of 1500 units and a standard deviation of 100 units. The company estimates that the raw material cost per unit is uniformly distributed between $5 and $6. The labor cost per unit is assumed to follow a discrete uniform distribution from $12 to $16. A junior analyst has devised the following Excel spreadsheet that simulates a single scenario using the information given above: Selling price per unit = 150 Set up and advertising cost = 75000 Demand = =NORM.INV(RAND(),1500,100) Raw material cost per unit = =5+(6-5)*RAND() Labor cost per unit = =RANDBETWEEN(12,16) Profit = =(B1*B4)-B2-((B5+B6)*B4) Copy-and-paste the above information into cells A1:B8 of an Excel spreadsheet. Then use a data table to repeat the simulation 1000 times. From the simulation results, estimate Stahlmaere's expected mean profit. Understanding that simulation is random in nature and that your estimate is unlikely to match any of the answer choices exactly, choose the answer choice that is closest to the estimated mean profit.

Stiller Corporation incurred fixed manufacturing costs of $24,000 during 2015. Other information for 2015 includes: The budgeted denominator level is 2,000 units. Units produced total 1,500 units. Units sold total 1,200 units. Beginning inventory was zero. The company uses absorption costing and the fixed manufacturing cost rate is based on the budgeted denominator level. Manufacturing variances are closed to cost of goods sold. Operating income using absorption costing will be ________ than operating income if using variable costing.

Answers

Answer:

Operating profit using absorption costing will be higher by $3,600 than operating income if using variable costing.

Explanation:

The difference between profit under variable costing and under absorption costing is simply the value of the change in inventory.

Usually, a decrease in inventory would cause profit under absorption costing to be lower . This is so because cost of goods sold would become higher leading to a lower profit . And vice versa

Difference in profit = POAR × change inventory

Predetermined Overhead absorption rate(POAR)

= Estimated overhead/ estimated production unit

= $24,000/2,000 units = $12 per unit

Change in inventory = 1500 - 1200= 300 units

Difference in profit = 300 × $12 per unit = $3,600

Operating profit using absorption costing will be higher by $3,600 than operating income if using variable costing.
