Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The receivables Turnover Ratio and Inventory Turnover Ratio is
receivables Turnover Ratio is
= Net credit sales ÷ average account receivable
= $86,000 ÷ ($6,500 + $6,900) ÷ 2
= $86,000 ÷ $6700
= 12.84 times
Inventory turnover ratio is
= Cost of goods sold ÷ average account receivable
= ($86,000 × (1 - 49.8%) ÷ ($7,280 + $7,300) ÷ 2
= $43,172 ÷ $7,290
= 5.92 times
b. The average days to collect receivables and inventory is
For receivables
= 365 ÷ 12.84 times
= 28.43 days
For inventory
= 365 ÷ 5.92
= 61.66 days

A bank loan officer has been approached by a start-up company that needs a five-year loan to purchase the equipment for its first project. The project will have a life of five years. At the end of five years, the equipment will be worthless. The founders of the company told the loan officer that they would be willing to pay a much higher interest rate on a simple interest loan rather than contracting to an add-on interest loan.
A. The loan officer should offer the company an add-on interest loan because there is a high risk that the company will not be able to repay the principal on the loan at the end of the project's life.
B. The loan officer should offer the company a simple interest loan. The bank will make more money in the long run, because it can charge a much higher interest rate.
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
add on interest loan is more frequently in case of sub prime borrowers.

(Round answer to 2 decimal places e.g. 2.25.) Variable cost per machine hour $
Answer:
Variable cost per unit= $0.5
Explanation:
To calculate the variable and fixed costs under the high-low method, we need to use the following formulas:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (5,420 - 2,925) / (8,870 - 3,880)
Variable cost per unit= $0.5
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 5,420 - (0.5*8,870)
Fixed costs= $985
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 2,925 - (0.5*3,880)
Fixed costs= $985

Which of the following is a true statement?
(A) New products introduce risk into a portfolio as well as future potential profits.
(B) A company’s product portfolio is assured of success by adding new products.
(C) New products bring great rewards with little risk.
Answer:
I think it's C, New products bring great rewards with little risk
The correct option is (A) .As we know introducing a product is not that much fast and easy because it automatically contains greater risk in it.
What does the new product mainly contain?Introducing a new product is the most important component of a product portfolio. As it contains greater risk but it also contains greater rewards too.
How can we explain it with a help of an example?When a company launches new products it automatically contains the risk that if it would be opened in the market what would be the customer's reaction, whether a customer would like it or not. If the customer like the product risk would convert into a reward for the company and if not then it would get a loss to the company. This profit and loss to the company affect the portfolio the most.

Joint products A and B emerge from common processing costs of $100,000 and yield 2,000 units of Product A and 1,000 units of Product B. Product A can be sold for $100 per unit. Product B can be sold for $120 per unit. The amount of joint costs allocated to Product A (if joint costs are allocated on the basis of relative sales value) will be $ (rounded to nearest dollar).
Answer:
Product A - Joint Cost Allocated = $62500
Explanation:
To calculate the allocation of joint costs to Product A, we must first calculate the sales revenue or value for both products.
Total sales value - Product A = 100 * 2000 = $200000
Total sales value - Product B = 120 * 1000 = $120000
Total Sales Value = 200000 + 120000 = $320000
The amount of Joint costs that will be allocated to Product A will be,
Product A - Joint Cost Allocated = (200000 / 320000) * 100000
Product A - Joint Cost Allocated = $62500
Forever Ready Company expects to operate at 85% of productive capacity during May. The total manufacturing costs for May for the production of 34,000 batteries are budgeted as follows:
Direct materials $330,600
Direct labor 121,600
Variable factory overhead 34,000
Fixed factory overhead 68,000
Total manufacturing costs $554,200
The company has an opportunity to submit a bid for 3,000 batteries to be delivered by May 31 to a government agency. If the contract is obtained, it is anticipated that the additional activity will not interfere with normal production during May or increase the selling or administrative expenses.
What is the unit cost below which Forever Ready Company should not go in bidding on the government contract? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
$14.3
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the unit cost which Forever Ready Company should not go in bidding on the government contract.
Direct materials $9.72
($330,600/34,000)
Direct labor $3.58
($121,600/34,000)
Variable factory overhead $1
($34,000/34,000)
Total per unit cost $14.3
($9.72 + $3.58 + $1)
Therefore, the unit cost which Forever Ready Company should not go in bidding on the government contracts is $14.3
On January 8, 2012, Speedway Delivery Service purchased a truck at a cost of $65,000. Before placing the truck in service, Speedway spent $4,000 painting it, $2,500 replacing tires, and $8,000 overhauling the engine. The truck should remain in service for five years and have a residual value of $6,000. The truck’s annual mileage is expected to be 22,000 miles in each of the first four years and 12,000 miles in the fifth year—100,000 miles in total. In deciding which depreciation method to use, David Greer, the general manager, requests a depreciation schedule for each of the depreciation methods (straight-line, units-of-production, and double-declining-balance).
Requirements
1. Prepare a depreciation schedule for each depreciation method, showing asset cost, depreciation expense, accumulated depreciation, and asset book value.
2. Speedway prepares financial statements using the depreciation method that reports the highest net income in the early years of asset use. For income tax purposes, the company uses the depreciation method that minimizes income taxes in the early years. Consider the first year that Speedway uses the truck. Identify the depreciation methods that meet the general manager’s objectives, assuming the income tax authorities permit the use of any of the methods.

December 31, 2016 $79,500 $4,303 $73,500 $6,000
2. The straight-line method reports the highest net income in the early years while the double-declining-balance method minimizes the income taxes in the early years.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
January 8, 2012:
Purchase of a delivery truck = $65,000
Cost of painting the truck = 4,000
Cost of replacing the tires = 2,500
Cost of overhauling the engine 8,000
Total costs = $79,500
Residual value = 6,000
Depreciable amount = $73,500
Estimated useful life = 5 years
Straight-line depreciation Method:
Annual depreciation expense = $14,700 ($73,500/5)
Units-of-production Method:
Depreciation rate per mile = $0.735 ($73,500/100,000)
For 22,000 miles, depreciation expense = $16,170 ($0.735 * 22,000)
For 12 ,000 miles, depreciation expense = $8,820 ($0.735 * 12,000)
Double-declining-balance method:
Depreciation rate = 100/5 * 2 = 40%
First year's depreciation expense = $31,800 ($79,500 * 40%)
Declined balance = $47,700 ($79,500 - $31,800)
Second year's depreciation expense = $19,080 ($47,700 * 40%)
Declined balance = $28,620 ($47,700 - $19,080)
Third year's depreciation expense = $11,448 ($28,620 * 40%)
Declined balance = $17,172 ($28,620 - $11,448)
Fourth year's depreciation expense = $6,869 ($17,172 * 40%)
Declined balance = $10,303 ($17,172 - $6,869)
Fifth year's depreciation expense = $4,303 ($10,303 - $6,000)

On January 1, 2021, Coronado issued 200000 shares of nonconvertible preferred stock. During 2021, Coronado declared and paid $110000 cash dividends on the common stock and $79000 on the preferred stock. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $618000. What should be Coronado's 2021 earnings per common share
Answer:
$3.72
Explanation:
earnings per common share = earning attributable to holder of common stock ÷ weighted average number of common stocks outstanding
therefore,
earnings per common share = $3.72
Solving for dominant strategies and the Nash equilibrium Suppose Lorenzo and Neha are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action Left or Right. The payoff matrix that follows shows the payoff each person will earn as a function of both of their choices. For example, the lower-right cell shows that if Lorenzo chooses Right and Neha chooses Right, Lorenzo will receive a payoff of 6 and Neha will receive a payoff of 5
Neha
Left Right
Lorenzo Left 8,4 4,5
Right 5,4 6,5
1. The only dominant strategy in this game is for (Neha/Lorenzo) to choose (Right/Left)
2. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Lorenzo chooses (Right/Left) and Neha chooses (Right/Left) .
Answer:
1. The only dominant strategy in this game is for Neha to choose Right.
2. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Lorenzo chooses Right and Neha chooses Right.
Explanation:
A dominant strategy is a strategy that results in a player being better off no matter the choice his or her opponent in a game.
For this game, when Lorenzo plays Left, Neha will choose Right because 5 > 4. Also, when Lorenzo plays Right, Neha will still choose Right because 5 > 4. This shows that Neha will always play Right no matter what Lorenzo plays. This implies the dominant strategy for Neha is Right.
On the other hand, when Neha plays Left, Lorenzo will also play Left because 8 > 5. But when Neha plays Right, Lorenzo will choose will also play Right because 6 > 4. This shows that Lorenzo does not have any particular strategy that make him better off. Therefore, Lorenzo does not have a dominant strategy.
Therefore, we have:
1. The only dominant strategy in this game is for (Neha/Lorenzo) to choose (Right/Left)
Based on the analysis above, the only dominant strategy in this game is for Neha to choose Right.
This is because the dominant strategy for Neha is Right, but Lorenzo does not have a dominant strategy.
2. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Lorenzo chooses (Right/Left) and Neha chooses (Right/Left) .
Based on the analysis above, the outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Lorenzo chooses Right and Neha chooses Right.
The reason is that Neha will always play Right and Lorenzo will be better of by also playing Right because 6 > 4.
A business operated at 100% of capacity during its first month and incurred the following costs: Production costs (20,000 units): Direct materials $180,000 Direct labor 240,000 Variable factory overhead 280,000 Operating expenses: Variable operating expenses $130,000 Fixed operating expenses 50,000 180,000 If 1,600 units remain unsold at the end of the month, the amount of inventory that would be reported on the variable costing balance sheet is a.$66,400 b.$64,000 c.$78,400 d.$56,000
Answer:
d.$56,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of inventory that would be reported on the variable costing balance sheet is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
The total production cost
= Direct material + direct labor + variable factory overhead
= $180,000 + $240,000 + $280,000
= $700,000
Now the production cost per unit is
= $700,000 ÷ 20,000 units
= $35 per unit
Now the amount of inventory is
= 1,600 units × $35 per unit
= $56,000
You are the manager for a Pizza restaurant. Currently, your restaurant pre-makes pizzas that are ordered the most to increase the number of pizzas being made on time for your customers. Over time, many customers have complained that their pizzas were cold upon delivery and not fresh, requesting refunds or remakes of their pizza. Your location is losing money from these wasteful practices, therefore, you want to create a Kanban based on the following basic principles:
1. A later process tells an earlier process when new items are required. This means that unless a customer orders a pizza, no pizzas will be made. Pull!
2. The earlier process produces what the later process needs.
3. No Items can be made without a Kanban card (order request). This allows the process to be transparent so everyone knows what is going on.
4. Defects are not passed on to the next stage.Create a Kanban board for your pizza company that delivers. You must have 4-6 columns with headings for each.
Required:
Decide what your Kanban cards will represent. Set Rules for your Kanban.
Answer:
RULES OF KANBAN BOARD
Yellow – A Slice of Pizza
• Blue – Full Pizza
• Green – Soda
• Green jumps from Queue to Pack only
• No pizza will be delivered without quality check
• Pizza will return to the backlog, if it is found with inferior quality during quality check
• A unique token number will be given for each order
• Orders with multiple pizza or a combo order will be given same unique token number
• Pizza will be prepared in the order of token number
• Token number will include initials “C” for carry out, “D” for dine in
THE ATTACHED IMAGE HAS THE REPRESENTATIONS OF KANBAN CARDS.

The Smith family wants to relocate to a neighborhood with better schools before their three-year-old goes to kindergarten. They talked with Byron about properties he has for sale in neighborhoods they would like to live in. They also mentioned to Byron that they both work and may need someone to help with in-home care for their child. Byron gave them Taylor’s name to call about childcare. The Smiths also said they were having a hard time getting loan approval, so Byron suggested that they call Travis. Which best describes the jobs performed by Byron, Taylor, and Travis?
a) Byron is a Customer Service Representative, Taylor is a Child Care Worker, and Travis is a Loan Counselor.
b) Byron is a Real Estate Manager, Taylor is a Nanny, and Travis is a Loan Counselor.
c) Byron is a Real Estate Manager, Taylor is a Preschool Teacher, and Travis is a Customer Service Representative.
d) Byron is a Home Counselor, Taylor is a Nanny, and Travis is a Property Manager.
Answer:
the correct answer is B)
Explanation:
Given that they spoke to Byron about properties that he wants to sell, that means he is a Real Estate Manager. Taylor came up because they needed in-home care. That makes Taylor a Nanny because Nannies are professionals who take care of babies in their own homes.
Loan counselors have no other major business besides advising people on issues relating to taking up a loan. Therefore that makes Travis a loan Counselor.

Before negotiating a long-term construction contract, build- ing contractors must carefully estimate the total cost of completing the project. Benzion Barlev of New York University proposed a model for total cost of a long-term contract based on the normal distribution(Journal of Business Finance and Accounting, July 1995). For one particular construction contract, Barlev assumed total cost, x, to be normally distributed with mean $850,000 and standard deviation $170,000. The revenue, R, promised to the contractor is $1,00,000.
Required:
a. The contract will be profitable if revenue exceeds total cost. What is the probability that the co ntract will be profitable for the contractor?
b. What is the probability that the project will result in a loss for the contractor?
c. Suppose the contractor has the opportunity to renegotiate the contract. What value of R should the contractor strive for in order to have a .99 probability of making a profit?
Answer:
Benzion Barlev of New York UniversityNEGOTIATION OF A LONG-TERM CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT
a. The probability that the contract will be profitable for the contractor is:
= 81%
b. The probability that the project will result in a loss for the contractor is:
= 19%
c. The value of R that the contractor should strive for in order to have a .99 probability of making a profit is:
= $1,246,100.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Mean total cost (x) = $850,000
Standard deviation = $170,000
Revenue = $1,000,000
Probability of being profitable = (R - x)/std deviation
= ($1,000,000 - $850,000)/$170,000
= $150,000/$170,000
= 0.882
From Z table, 0.882 = 0.81057 = 81%
Probability of loss = 19% (100 - 81%)
To have a 99% (0.99) probability of making a profit, Z value = 2.33 from the Z table:
(R - x)/std deviation = 2.33
(R - x) = 2.33 * $170,000
= $396,100
(R - $850,000) = $396,100
R = $396,100 + $850,000
R = $1,246,100

A continuous (rolling) budget A. presents the plan for a range of activity so that the plan can be adjusted for changes in activity levels. B. presents a statement of expectations for a period of time but does not present a firm commitment. C. presents the plan for only one level of activity and does not adjust to changes in the level of activity. D.drops the current month or quarter and adds a future month or quarter as the current month or quarter is completed. E. classifies budget requests by activity and estimates the benefits arising from each activity. A continuous budget has a constant time horizon and always looks ahead the same number of periods.
Answer:
D.drops the current month or quarter and adds a future month or quarter as the current month or quarter is completed.
Explanation:
A continuous (rolling) budget is one that varies over time. It attach another month to the end of the budget as one month expires. for example, If initial budget covers the months of January to December 2018, then you may add January 2019 after January 2018 has ended.
Hence, option D is the correct answer.

From this, you can tell that Dina's marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is , and her marginal propensity to save (MPS) is . Mathematically, it must always be true that: Disposable Income = Therefore, it must also be true that: 1 =
Answer:
MPC = 0.75
MPS = 0.25
Disposable income = amount spent on consumption + amount saved
Marginal Propensity to Consume + Marginal Propensity to Save = 1
Explanation:
Marginal propensity to consume is the proportion of disposable income that is spent on consumption
Marginal propensity to consume = amount consumed / disposable income
Marginal propensity to save is the proportion of disposable income that is saved
Marginal propensity to save = amount saved / disposable income
MPC + MPS = 1
Disposable income = amount spent on consumption + amount saved
MPC = 600 / 800 = 0.75
MPS = 200 / 800 = 0.25
Sicilian Defence, a division of Queen's Gambit Corp., has a net operating income of $60,000 and average operating assets of $300,000. The minimum required rate of return for the company is 15%. If the manager of the Sicilian Defence division is evaluated based on residual income, will she want to make an investment of $100,000 that would generate additional net operating income of $18,000 per year?
Answer:
Queen's Gambit Corp.
Sicilian Defence Division
If the manager of the Sicilian Defence division is evaluated based on residual income, will she want to make an investment of $100,000 that would generate additional net operating income of $18,000 per year?
Yes.
The additional investment yields comparable positive Residual Income.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Net operating income of Sicilian Defence Division = $60,000
Average operating assets = $300,000
Required rate of return for the company = 15%
Residual income (RI)= Operating Income - (Operating Assets x Required Rate of Return)
= $60,000 - ($300,000 * 15%)
= $60,000 - $45,000
= $15,000
Investment cost = $100,000
Additional net operating income = $18,000
Residual Income = $18,000 - ($100,000 * 15%)
= $18,000 - $15,000
= $3,000
Total residual income = $78,000 - ($400,000 * 15%)
= $78,000 - $60,000
= $18,000

Explanation:
Roland, Inc. provides residential painting services for three home building companies, Alpha, Beta, and Gamma, and it uses a job costing system for determining the costs for completing each job. The job cost system does not capture any cost incurred by Roland for return touchups and refinishes after the homeowner occupies the home. Roland paints each house on a square footage contract price, which includes painting as well as all refinishes and touchups required after the homes are occupied. Each year, Roland generates about one-third of its total revenues and gross profits from each of the three builders. Roland has observed that the builders, however, require substantially different levels of support following the completion of jobs. The following data have been gathered:Major refinishes Hours on job $70
Touchups Number of visits $180
Communication Number of calls $20
Builder Major Refinishes Touchups Communication
Alpha 80 150 360
Beta 35 110 205
Gamma 42 115 190

You wish to take an Excel course. You may enroll at one within your school or you may take a community class at the local library. You've gathered the following information to aid in your decision-making process.
Costs/Benefits College Course Community Course
Cost $2,600 $1,390
Distance to course 0.40 miles (walking distance) 16 miles (driving distance)
Timing of course Weekday Weekend
Number of meetings 16 8
Qualitative considerations Convenience, quality of instruction Flexibility, brief duration
If you enroll in the community class, you will be unable to work at your regular job on weekends for the eight weekend days when the class meets. If you typically earn $260 per weekend shift, which option would you choose (considering enrollment cost and opportunity cost)?
a) Neither alternative
b) College course
c) Community course
d) Both alternatives
Answer:
The chosen option (considering enrollment costs and opportunity cost) is:
b) College course.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Costs/Benefits
College Course Community Course
Cost $2,600 $1,390
Opportunity costs -2,080 2,080
Net costs $520 $3,470
Distance to course 0.40 miles 16 miles
(walking distance) (driving distance)
Timing of course Weekday Weekend
Number of meetings 16 8
b) With the College course option, you will earn $2,080 ($260 * 8) weekdays to offset part of the enrollment cost. With the Community course option, $2,080 will be lost in opportunity cost, thereby increasing the total costs incurred. These costs are apart from the driving costs associated with traveling 16 miles to the Community Course at the local library.

n 1982 the inflation rate hit 16%. Suppose that the average cost of a textbook in 1982 was $25. What was the expected cost in the year 2017 if we project this rate of inflation on the cost? (Assume continuous compounding. Round your answer to the nearest cent.) If the average cost of a textbook in 2012 was $150, what is the actual inflation rate (rounded to the nearest tenth percent)?
Answer:
Total number of years = 35
a. Expected cost in 2017 = $25 * e^(35*0.16)
Expected cost in 2017 = $25 * e^5.6
Expected cost in 2017 = $25 * 270.42
Expected cost in 2017 = $6,760.50
b. If the average cost of a textbook in 2012 was $150, then the actual inflation rate:
150 = 25 * e^(r*t)
150 = 25 * e^(r*30)
6 = e^(r*30)
Taking log base e on both side
30r = Ln6
30r = 1.7918
r = 1.7918/30
r = 0.05972667
r = 5.97%
So, actual inflation rate is 5.97%
