Answers

Answer:

Controllable margin= $300,000

Controllable margin in %= 33.3%

Explanation:

Controllable margin is sales revenue less controllable variable costs and fixed cost.

Controllable margin= Sales revenue - controllable variable cost - controllable fixed costs

Controllable margin= contribution margin - fixed costs

                                     = 500,000 - 200,000= 300,000

Controllable margin in %= 300,000/900,000 × 100 =33.3%

Lily Company sells automatic can openers under a 75-day warranty for defective merchandise. Based on past experience, Lily estimates that 4% of the units sold will become defective during the warranty period. Management estimates that the average cost of replacing or repairing a defective unit is $20. The units sold and units defective that occurred during the last 2 months of 2020 are as follows:

Months Units Sold Units Defective Prior to December 31
November 37,300 746
December 39,300 491

Required:
a. Prepare the journal entries to record the estimated liability for warranties and the costs incurred in honoring 1,237 warranty claims.
b. Determine the estimated warranty liability at December 31 for the units sold in November and December.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

In November month:

Estimated defective units:

= Estimated Percentage  to be defective units × Units sold

= 4% × 37,300

= 1,492

The Estimated cost of repairing defective units is  

= Estimated defective units × Estimated cost of repairing the defective unit

=  1,492 × $20

= $29,840

In December month:

Estimated defective units:

= Estimated Percentage to be defective units × Units sold

= 4% × 39,300

= 1,572

The Estimated cost of repairing defective units:

= Estimated defective units × Estimated cost of repairing the defective unit

=  1,572 × $20

= $31,440

Now the Total estimated liability is  

= $29,840 + $31,440

= $61,280

The Journal entries are as follows:

(a) Warranty expenses A/c   Dr. $61,280  

       To Estimated warranty payable                $61,280

(Being warranty expense is recorded)

Estimated warranty payable A/c    Dr. $24,740

          To Cash/ Material consume                                     $24,740

(being cash paid is recorded)

(b) The estimated warranty liability is $61,280

What is Frieda%u2019s weighted average cost of capital?
a. 16%
b. 18%
c. 24%
d. 22%

Answers

Answer:

WACC = 0.18 or 18%

Option b is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

w represents the weight of each component D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively r represents the cost of each componentrD * (1-tax rate) represents the after tax cost of debt

WACC = 0.2 * 0.16   +   0.8 * 0.185

WACC = 0.18 or 18%

Locomotive Corporation is planning to repurchase part of its common stock by issuing corporate debt. As a result, the firm’s debt–equity ratio is expected to rise from 30 percent to 50 percent. The firm currently has $3.3 million worth of debt outstanding. The cost of this debt is 9 percent per year. Locomotive expects to have an EBIT of $1.32 million per year in perpetuity. Locomotive pays no taxes.
a. What is the market value of Locomotive Corporation before and after the repurchase announcement?
b. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity before the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?
c. What is the expected return on the equity of an otherwise identical all-equity firm?
d. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity after the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. What is the market value of Locomotive Corporation before and after the repurchase announcement?

Equity value = Debt value / Debt to equity ratio

= 3,300,000/0.3

= 11,000,000

Market value = Debt value + Equity value

= $3,300,000 + $11,000,000

= $14,300,000

b. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity before the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?

To solve this, we need to know the interest payment first which will be:

= $3,300,000 × 9%

= $3,300,000 × 0.09

= $297000

Return on equity will now be:

= (EBIT - interest) / Equity

= (1320000 - 297000) / 11000000

= 9.30%

c. What is the expected return on the equity of an otherwise identical all-equity firm?

This will be:

= Earnings before Interest / Unlevered firm value

= 1320000 / 14300000

= 9.23%

d. What is the expected return on the firm’s equity after the announcement of the stock repurchase plan?

This will be:

= 9.23% + 50% × (9.23% - 9%)

= 9.35%

Unemployment rate refers to the percentage of the total labor force in an economy, who are unemployed but seeking to be gainfully employed. The unemployment rate is divided into various types, these include;

I. Natural Rate of Unemployment (NU).

II. Frictional unemployment rate (FU).

III. Structural unemployment rate (SU).

IV. Actual unemployment rate (AU).

V. Cyclical unemployment rate (CU).

Answers

Answer:

$109

$118.81

18.26%

Explanation:

Intrinsic value can be determined using the constant growth dividend model

according to the constant dividend growth model

price = d1 / (r - g)

d1 = next dividend to be paid

r = cost of equity

g = growth rate

dividend, growth rate and cost of equity are not given and they have to be calculated

growth rate = retention rate x ROE  

Retention rate = 1 - payout ratio = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 = 50%

0.5 x 18% = 9%

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

9% + 2x (14% - 9%) = 19%

dividend = payout ratio x earnings per share

0.5 x $20 = $10

Intrinsic value = [tex]\frac{10( 1 + 0.09)}{0.19 - 0.09}[/tex] = $109

Stock price in a year

[tex]\frac{10(1 + 0.9)^{2} }{0.19 - 0.09}[/tex] = 118.81

(dividend return + price return)  

price return is the return on investment as a result of appreciation or depreciation of share price  

Dividend return is the return on investment from dividend earned  

price return = price at the end of the year - price at the beginning of the year

A. $ 70 B. $ 80 C. $ 90 D. $100 E. $110

Answers

Answer:

C. $ 90

Explanation:

Number of visits = 1,000

Variable cost = $10 × 1,000 = $10,000

Fixed cost = $50,000

Overhead cost = $20,000

Required profit = $10,000

So,Total Cost = Variable Cost+ Fixed Cost+ Overhead Cost

= $10,000 + $50,000 + $20,000

= $80,000

Now, Price per Visit = (Total Cost+ Required Profit) ÷ Number of visits

= ($80,000 + $10,000) ÷ 1,000

= $90,000 ÷ 1,000

= $90

ii. Upper limit rate of deviation = 14%

iii. Allowance for sampling risk will be:

= Upper Limit Rate of Deviation - Sample rate of devaition

= 14% - 8%

= 6%

b. n = 100. d = 4. ROO = 5%.

i. Sample rate of deviation will be:

= Number of Deviations / Sample size

= 4/100

= 4%

ii. Upper limit rate of deviation = 9%

iii. Allowance for sampling risk will be:

= Upper Limit Rate of Deviation - Sample rate of devaition

= 9% - 4%

= 5%

c. n = 100. d = 8. ROO = 10%.

i. Sample rate of deviation will be:

= Number of Deviations / Sample size

= 8/100

= 8%

ii. Upper limit rate of deviation = 12.7%

iii. Allowance for sampling risk will be:

= Upper Limit Rate of Deviation - Sample rate of devaition

= 12.7% - 8%

= 4.7%

Answers

Answer: Debit to retained earnings of $75000

Explanation:

Based on the information given, the stock dividend will be:

= 100,000 shares x 5%

= 100000 × 0.05

= 5,000 shares.

Since the market price is $15 per share, then the retained earnings will be:

= $15 × 5000

= $75000

Stock dividend distributable will be:

= 5,000 x $1

= $5000

Paid in capital in excess of par = $75000 - $5000 = $70000

The journal entry will be:

Debit Retained earnings $75000

Credit Stock dividend distributable $5,000

Credit Paid in capital in excess of par $70000

You are analyzing two assets: collectible LEGO sets, and stock of Apple. In the last 5 years, LEGOs have had an annual volatility of 5%, annual return of 6%, and a CAPM beta (the correlation coefficient between the asset and the market risk-premium) of 1.6. Apple has had an annual volatility of 10%, an annual return of 8%, and a CAPM beta of 1.2. Is the following statement true or false?

According to CAPM, Apple has a higher expected return than LEGO.

Answers

Answer:

No, Apple has lower rate of return than LEGOs.

Explanation:

Risk free rate is 2% and Market risk is 9%

Expected return can be calculated by :

E(r) = Rf + beta * (Rm - Rf)

E(r) LEGOs = 2 + 1.6 * (9 - 2)

E(r) LEGOs = 13.2%

E(r) Apple = 2 + 1.2 * (9 - 2)

E(r) Apple = 10.4%

oneycutt Co. is comparing two different capital structures. Plan I would result in 39,000 shares of stock and $108,000 in debt. Plan II would result in 33,000 shares of stock and $324,000 in debt. The interest rate on the debt is 7 percent. a. Ignoring taxes, compare both of these plans to an all-equity plan assuming that EBIT will be $160,000. The all-equity plan would result in 42,000 shares of stock outstanding. What is the EPS for each of these plans

Answers

Answer:

All equity plan:

EPS = $160,000 / 42,000 = $3.81

Plan I:

EPS = [$160,000 - ($108,000 x 7%)] / 39,000 = $152,440 / 39,000 = $3.91

Plan II:

EPS = [$160,000 - ($324,000 x 7%)] / 33,000 = $137,320 / 33,000 = $4.16

Plan II is better since the resulting EPS is higher than the other alternatives.

"Minimum wage laws cause unemployment because the legal minimum wage is set" 9) A) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be greater than labor supply. B) below the market wage, causing labor demand to be greater than labor supply. C) too low. D) below the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply. E) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply.

Answers

Answer: E) above the market wage, causing labor demand to be less than labor supply.

Explanation:

Minimum wage simply refers to the lowest wage that employers can pay their workers. Minimum wage is a form of price floor which means that it's typically higher than the equilibrium or market wage.

In this case, since it's higher than the market wage, there'll be an increase in the supply of labor as those that are unemployed will be willing to work duw to the increase in the wage rate.

On the other hand, there'll be a reduction in the demand for labor as employers typically will want to reduce cost and won't be interested in employing more workers.

Therefore, the correct option is E

Computing Straight-Line and Double-Declining-Balance Depreciation
On January 2, 2016, Dechow Company purchases a machine to help manufacture a part for one of its key products. The machine cost $306,180 and is estimated to have a useful life of six years, with an expected salvage value of $32,760.
Compute each year's depreciation expense for 2016 and 2017 for each of the following depreciation methods.
a. Straight-line.
b. Double-declining balance.

Answers

Answer:

a.

2016 =  $45,570

2017 =  $45,570

b.

2016 =  $102,080

2017 =  $68,014

Explanation:

Straight line method

Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation

Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated useful life

2016

Depreciation Charge = $45,570

2017

Depreciation Charge = $45,570

Double declining method

Double declining method charges a higher amount of depreciation at the early years and less in the later years

Depreciation Charge = 2 x SLDP x BVSLDP

2016

Depreciation Charge = 2 x 16.67 % x $306,180 = $102,080

2017

Depreciation Charge = 2 x 16.67 % x ($306,180 - $102,080)  = $68,014

The company estimates that it can issue debt at a rate of rd = 10%, and its tax rate is 30%. It can issue preferred stock that pays a constant dividend of $5 per year at $48 per share. Also, its common stock currently sells for $33 per share; the next expected dividend, D1, is $4.00; and the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% per year. The target capital structure consists of 75% common stock, 15% debt, and 10% preferred stock.

Required:
a. What is the cost of each of the capital components?
b. What is Adamson's WACC?

Answers

Answer:

a. Cost of debt = Interest * (1 - Tax rate)

= 10%*(1 - 0.30)

= 7%

Cost of preferred stock = Dividend/ Issue price

= 5/48

= 10.42%

Cost of common stock (Cost of retained earnings) = (D1/P0) + g

= (4/33) + 0.07

= 0.12 + 0.07

= 0.19

= 19%

Answers

Answer:

The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.

Explanation:

The appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense can be calculated as follows:

Bad debt expense = (Percentage of accounts receivable not yet due it will not collect * Accounts receivable not yet due) + (Percentage of receivables up to 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables up to 30 days past due) + (Parentage of receivables of receivables greater than 30 days past due it will not collect * Amount of receivables greater than 30 days past due) - Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit) ……………………… (1)

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

Bad debt expense = (7% * $7,500) + (20% + $2,300) + (46% * $2,000) - $400 = $3,345.20

Therefore, the appropriate amount of Bad Debt Expense is $3,345.20.
