Answer:
Outsourcing is a cost reduction practice where Company A contracts Company B or another party to carry out services or produce goods that Company A used to produce for itself.
It is done when paying Company B to perform the services, is cheaper than performing it themselves which would enable Company A to cut down on costs.
For example, it costs Company A $5 per customer service call if they do it themselves but it would cost $3 per call if they let Company B handle it. Outsourcing is where they pay Company B that $3 to handle the calls and save $2.
Parking lot staff budget Adventure Park is a large theme park. Staffing for the theme park involves many different labor classifications, one of which is the parking lot staff. The parking lot staff collects parking fees, provides directions, and operates trams. The staff size is a function of the number of daily vehicles. Adventure Park has determined from historical experience that a staff member is needed for every 200 vehicles. Adventure Park estimates staff for both school days and nonschool days. Nonschool days are higher attendance days than school days. The number of expected vehicles for each day is as follows:
School Days Nonschool Days
Number of vehicles per day 3,000 8,000
Number of days per year 165 200
Parking fees are $10 per vehicle. Each parking lot employee is paid $110 per day.
Required:
a. Determine the annual parking lot staff budget for school days, nonschool days, and total.
b. Determine the parking revenue for school days, nonschool days, and total.
c. If depreciation expense and other expenses for running the parking lot were estimated to be $2 million per year, determine the parking lot's budgeted profit.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Determine the annual parking lot staff budget for school days, nonschool days, and total.
For school days:
Number of staff required per day = 3000/20 = 15
Number of staff days per year = 15 × 165 = 2475
Annual parking lot staff budget = 2475 × $110 = $272250
For non school days:
Number of staff required per day = 8000/20 = 40
Number of staff days per year = 40 × 200 = 8000
Annual parking lot staff budget = 800 × $110 = $880,000
Total annual parking lot staff budget = $272250 + $880000 = $1152250
b. Determine the parking revenue for school days, nonschool days, and total.
For school days:
Total number of vehicles per year = 3000 × 165 = 495000
Parking revenue = 495000 × $10 = $4950000
For non school days:
Total number of vehicles per year = 8000 × 200 = 1600000
Parking revenue = 1600000 × $10 = $16000000
Total parking revenue = $4950000 + $16000000 = $20950000
c. If depreciation expense and other expenses for running the parking lot were estimated to be $2 million per year, determine the parking lot's budgeted profit.
Parking revenue = $20,950,000
Less: Parking lot staff payroll = $1152250
Less: Depreciation and other expenses = $2000000
Budgeted profit = $177977500

Private producers have no incentive to provide public goods because A. the government subsidy granted is usually insufficient to enable private producers to make a profit. B. production of huge quantities of public goods entails huge fixed costs.
Answer:
Private producers have no incentive to provide public goods because
B. production of huge quantities of public goods entails huge fixed costs.
Explanation:
There is rivalry in the production and consumption of private goods. This rivalry is generally described as competition. Most public goods are produced naturally or provided by the government to her citizens. Since they are made available for the welfare of the people, there is usually no cost recovery or exclusion of persons based on financial affordability. But private goods are manufactured and sold by private companies or individuals for a profit motive.
Molo Oil Company produces gasoline, home heating oil, and jet fuel from crude oil in a joint processing operation. Joint processing costs up to the split-off point total $385,000 per month. For financial reporting purposes, the company allocates these costs to the joint products on the basis of their relative sales value at the split-off point. Unit selling prices and total output at the split-off point are as follows: Product Selling Price Monthly Output Gasoline $ 27.00 per gallon 14,400 gallons Heating Oil $ 21.00 per gallon 22,400 gallons Jet Fuel $ 33.00 per gallon 5,600 gallons Each product can be processed further after the split-off point.

Assume today is December 31, 2019. Imagine Works Inc. just paid a dividend of $1.25 per share at the end of 2019. The dividend is expected to grow at 15% per year for 3 years, after which time it is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% annually. The company's cost of equity (rs) is 9.5%. Using the dividend growth model (allowing for nonconstant growth), what should be the price of the company's stock today (December 31, 2019)
Answer:
Value of stock = $47.99
Explanation:
The price of a stock using the dividend valuation model is the present value of the the future dividend expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.
Year Present Value
1 1.25× 1.15^1 × 1.095^(-1) =1.31
2 1.25× 1.15^2 × 1.095^(-2) = 1.38
3. 1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.095^(-3)= 1.45
Present value of Dividend in Year 4 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
Step 1
PV in year 3 terms
= Dividend in year 4× (1.06)/(0.095-0.06)
1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.06/(0.095-0.06)=57.57
PV in year 0 terms =
PV in year 3 × 1.095^(-3)
=57.5759 × 1.095^(-3)= 43.852
Value of stock = 1.3 + 1.38 + 1.45 + 43.852= $47.99
Value of stock = $47.99
Excess reserves A. are loans made at above market interest rates. B. are the deposits that banks do not use to make loans. C. are reserves banks keep to meet the reserve requirement. D. are reserves banks keep above the legal requirement. Suppose the required reserve ratio is % and a bank has the following balance sheet: Assets Liabilities Reserves $ Deposits $ Loans $ This bank keeps required reserves of $ nothing and excess reserves of $ nothing. (Enter your responses as integers.)
Answer and Explanation:
The excess reserves are the reserves banks that maintain more the legal requirement. It shows the difference between the required reserve and the actual reserve
Hence, the last option is correct
Now the required reserve is
= ($11,000 × 11%)
= $1,210
And, the excess reserve is
= $2,200 - $1,210
= $990
Hence, the same would be relevant
At the end of 2019, Wildhorse Co. has accounts receivable of $731,300 and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $65,400. On January 24, 2020, the company learns that its receivable from Megan Gray is not collectible, and management authorizes a write-off of $6,900. On March 4, 2020, Wildhorse Co. receives payment of $6,900 in full from Megan Gray. Prepare the journal entries to record this transaction.
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry to record the transaction is shown below:
Accounts receivable $6,900
To allowance for doubtful accounts $6,900
(Being reversing the write off is recorded)
Here account receivable is debited as it increased the assets and credited the allowance as it decreased the assets
Cash $6,900
To Accounts receivable $6,900
(Being cash collection from write off account is recorded)
Here the cash is debited as it decreased the assets and credited the account receivable as it decreased the assets

Explanation:
Esquire Company needs to acquire a molding machine to be used in its manufacturing process. Two types of machines that would be appropriate are presently on the market. The company has determined the following
Machine A could be purchased for $69,000. It will last 10 years with annual maintenance costs of $2,200 per year. After 10 years the machine can be sold for $7,245.
Machine B could be purchased for $57,500. It also will last 10 years and will require maintenance costs of $8,800 in year three, $11,000 in year six, and $13,200 in year eight. After 10 years, the machine will have no salvage value.
Required:
Assume an interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of money in this situation and that maintenance costs are paid at the end of each year. Calculate the present value of Machine A & Machine B. Which machine Esquire should purchase?
Answer:
Esquire should purchase Machine B
Explanation:
Below is the calculation of the present values of Machine A & Machine B.
Machine A Period Amount Present Value Factor Present Value
Purchase Cost 0 ($69,000) 1 ($69,000)
Maintenance Cost 1 - 10 ($2,200) 6.71008 ($14,762)
Salvage Value 10 $7,245 0.46319 $3,356
Present Value of A ($80,406)
Machine B Period Amount Present Value Factor Present Value
Purchase Cost 0 ($57,500) 1 ($57,500)
Maintenance Cost
Year 3 3 ($8,800) 0.79383 ($6,986)
Year 6 6 ($11,000) 0.63017 ($6.932)
Year 8 8 ($13,200) 0.54027 ($7,132)
Present Value of B ($78,550)
Note the Following:
The Net Present Value of B is lower than the Value of Machine A. So, Machine B should be opted.For the Present Value Factor of Machine A's Maintenance Cost, the 10 year annuity value of 8% was calculated.Machine B has no salvage value after the 10th year period.Lake Power Sports sells jet skis and other powered recreational equipment. Customers pay one-third of the sales price of a jet ski when they initially purchase the ski, and then pay another one-third each year for the next two years. Because Lake has little information about the ability to collect these receivables, it uses the cost recovery method to recognize revenue on these installment sales. In 2020, Lake began operations and sold jet skis with a total price of $690,000 that cost Lake $345,000. Lake collected $230,000 in 2020, $230,000 in 2021, and $230,000 in 2022 associated with those sales. In 2021, Lake sold jet skis with a total price of $1,860,000 that cost Lake $1,116,000. Lake collected $620,000 in 2021, $430,000 in 2022, and $430,000 in 2023 associated with those sales. In 2023, Lake also repossessed $380,000 of jet skis that were sold in 2021. Those jet skis had a fair value of $142,500 at the time they were repossessed. In 2020, Lake would recognize realized gross profit of:
Answer:
$115,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Lake would recognize realized gross profit
First step is to calculate the Gross profit percentage
Gross profit percentage = [($690,000 − $345,000)/$690,000]
Gross profit percentage =$345,000/$690,000
Gross profit percentage =0.5*100
Gross profit percentage = 50%
Now let calculate the realized gross profit
Realized gross profit=50% × $230,000
Realized gross profit = $115,000
Therefore Lake would recognize realized gross profit of:$115,000
Luther Industries has no debt and expects to generate free cash flows of $48 million each year. Luther believes that if it permanently increases its level of debt to $100 million, the risk of financial distress may cause it to lose some customers and receive less favorable terms from its suppliers. As a result, Luther's expected free cash flows with debt will be only $44 million per year. Suppose Luther's tax rate is 40%, the risk-free rate is 6%, the expected return of the market is 14%, and the beta of Luther's free cash flows is 1.25 (with or without leverage). The value of Luther with leverage is closest to:_______.
A) 11.5%.
B) 10.8%.
C) 9.8%.
D) 13.0%.
Answer: $315 million
Explanation:
First find the cost of capital as a required rate of return using CAPM:
= Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - Risk free rate)
= 6% + 1.25 *(14% - 6%)
= 16%
Value of Luther with leverage:
= (Cash flows with debt / required return) + (Debt * Tax)
= (44 million / 16%) + (100 million * 40%)
= $315 million

5 years ago, Barton Industries issued 25-year noncallable, semiannual bonds with a $1,000 face value and a 9% coupon, semiannual payment ($45 payment every 6 months). The bonds currently sell for $896.87. If the firm's marginal tax rate is 25%, what is the firm's after-tax cost of debt? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer: 7.67%
Explanation:
To solve this, the financial calculator will be needed
Present value = -896.87
Future Value = 1,000
N = [(25 - 5years) × 2 = 40
PMT = $45
Given the above information, we will press the financial calculator as we'll press CPT after which we then press I/Y and we'll get 5.11%
Then, the the firm's after-tax cost of debt will be:
= (5.11% x 2 )(1 - 0.25)
= (0.0511 × 2) (0.75)
= 0.07665
= 7.665%
= 7.67%
A public good rev: 04_09_2018 Multiple Choice generally results in substantial negative externalities. can never be provided by a nongovernmental organization. costs essentially nothing to produce and is thus provided by the government at a zero price. cannot be provided to one person without making it available to others as well.
Answer:
cannot be provided to one person without making it available to others as well.
Explanation:
A public good is a good that is non excludable and non rivalrous. It cannot be provided to one person without making it available to others as well. If one person is using it, it does not stop other people from using it also. An example of a public good is roads.
Public goods contrasts with club goods and private goods
A club good is a type of public good. It is excludable but non-rivalrous. For example paid streaming services are an example of a club good. Those who do not subscribe are excluded from using the service. But all subscribers have equal assess to the service
A private good is a good that is excludable and rivalrous.e.g. a privately owned car

A portfolio is composed of two stocks, A and B. Stock A has a standard deviation of return of 23%, while stock B has a standard deviation of return of 29%. Stock A comprises 70% of the portfolio, while stock B comprises 30% of the portfolio. If the variance of return on the portfolio is 0.042, the correlation coefficient between the returns on A and B is _________. Multiple Choice 0.088 0.304 0.213 0.091
Answer:
0.304
Explanation:
The calculation has been done step by step in order to understand the final result. Note that (p) in the below working refers to the correlation coefficient between Stock A and B.
0.042 = (0.70^2)(0.23^2) + (0.30^2)(0.29^2) + 2(0.70)(0.30)(0.23)(0.29)p
0.042 = 0.0259 + 0.0076 + 0.028p
0.042 = 0.0335 + 0.028p
0.042 - 0.0335 = 0.028p
0.0085 = 0.028p
p = 0.0085 / 0.028
p = 0.304
The air pollution could be reduced if the company spent $10,000 on upgraded ventilators. The company agrees to install the ventilators if the affected families contribute the $10,000. However, because individuals will benefit from the reduction in air pollution whether they contribute or not, most people will not contribute and the firm will not install the ventilators. This outcome is an example of the
Answer:
free rider problem
Explanation:
The air pollution constitutes a negative externality
A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.
Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible
Free rider is when some people benefit from the solution proffered but do not pay to enjoy these benefits
The Brisbane Manufacturing Company produces a single model of a CD player. Each player is sold for $182 with a resulting contribution margin of $71. Brisbane's management is considering a change in its quality control system. Currently, Brisbane spends $42,000 a year to inspect the CD players. An average of 1,900 units turn out to be defective: 1,520 of them are detected in the inspection process and are repaired for $75. If a defective CD player is not identified in the inspection process, the customer who receives it is given a full refund of the purchase price. The proposed quality control system involves the purchase of an x-ray machine for $210,000. The machine would last for five years and would have salvage value at that time of $18,000. Brisbane would also spend $470,000 immediately to train workers to better detect and repair defective units. Annual inspection costs would increase by $25,000. Brisbane expects this new control system to reduce the number of defective units to 400 per year. 350 of these defective units would be detected and repaired at a cost of only $41 per unit. Customers who still receive defective players will be given a refund equal to 120% of the purchase price.
Required:
a. What is the Year 3 cash flow if Brisbane keeps using its current system?
b. What is the Year 3 cash flow if Brisbane replaces its current system?

Portia owns and manages a sporting apparel company. Consider the given average cost (AC), average variable cost (AVC), and marginal cost (MC) curves for track suits. All but the MC curve have been placed incorrectly. Portia knows that the minimum average cost for a track suit is $7 and the minimum of average variable cost is $5.
Required:
Draw the AC and AVC curves so that they are consistent with the marginal cost curve.
Answer:
AVC curve will be below the AC curve
Explanation:
As we know,
[tex]AC = AFC + AVC[/tex]
This means that Average cost is the sum of average fixed cost and Average variable cost. Thus it can be shown that AC curve will be above the AVC curve.
Also we know that MC curve is upward sloping.
Thus, the MC curve will cut the AVC curve first and it will be to the right of the point where the MC curve cuts the AC curve.
So the curve must look like,

Jane currently has $5,300 in her savings account and $2,000 in her checking account at the local bank. Instructions:
A. If Jane withdraws $500 in cash from her savings account, by what dollar amount will the country's money supply (M1 and M2) change as a result of Jane's actions?
B. Suppose that after Jane withdraws $500 from her checking account, she uses $180 of this money to pay her federal income tax. After paying her taxes, Jane uses $160 to buy a set of used golf clubs from her neighbor, who then deposits the money into his checking account. Jane deposits the remaining cash from the $500 withdrawal into her savings account. By what dollar amount will the country's money supply change as a result of Jane's actions?
Answer:
A
M1 change = $500M2 change = $0B
M1 change = -$340M2 change = -$180Explanation:
A. M1 includes actual liquid cash in hand as well as cash in checking deposits.
M2 includes M1 as well as savings deposits and time deposits amongst others.
M1 change = +$500
$500 went from the Savings account which was not part of M1 to M1.
M2 change = $0
The money went from Savings to Checking which are both part of M2.
B.
M1 change = -$-180 - ( 500 - 180 -160 ) = -$340
Tax of $180 went out of the supply as tax. Jane deposits the remaining cash after paying $160 for goods into the savings account which is not part of M1. That remaining cash is = 500 - 180 - 160 = $160.
M2 change = -500 + 160 + 160 = -$180
For M2, only taxes will reduce money from it because the rest goes to checking deposits and savings accounts both of which are part of M2
You plan to visit Geneva, Switzerland in three months to attend an international business conference. You expect to incur the total cost of SF 5,000 for lodging, meals and transportation during your stay. As of today, the spot exchange rate is $0.60/SF and the three-month forward rate is $0.63/SF. You can buy the three-month call option on SF with the exercise rate of $0.64/SF for the premium of $0.05 per SF. Assume that your expected future spot exchange rate is the same as the forward rate. The three-month interest rate is 6 percent per annum in the United States and 4 percent per annum in Switzerland.
Required:
a. Calculate your expected dollar cost of buying $F5,000 if you choose to hedge by a call option on SF.
b. Calculate the future dollar cost of meeting this SF obligation if you decide to hedge using a forward contract.
c. At what future spot exchange rate will you be indifferent between the forward and option market hedges?
d. Illustrate the future dollar cost of meeting the SF payable against the future spot exchange rate under both the options and forward market hedges.
Answer:
A. 3403.75 dollars
B. 3150
C. 0.579
D. Is an attachment
Explanation:
A. We first find the premium cost
= 0.05x5000 x 1+0.06/4
= 250x1.015
= 253.75
From here we find expected dollar cost
= Exchange rate x units + premium
= 0.63x5000+253.75
= 3,403.75 dollars
B. Forward rate = 0.63
Total cost of dollar
= 0.63x5000
= 3150
C. The investor would be indifferent at 0.579
Forward rate = unit * future + premium
3150 = 5000 * future + 253.75
3150-253.75 = 5000*future
We solve and divide through by 5000
Future = 0.579
D is in the attachment
The expected dollar cost of buying $F5,000 through the call option is $3403.75.
The first thing to do is to calculate the premium cost. This will be:
= (5% × 5000) × (1 + 6%/4)
= (0.05 × 5000) × (1 + 0.06/4)
= 250 × 1.015
= 253.75
The expected dollar cost will be:
= Exchange rate × Number of units + Call premium cost
= 0.63 × 5000 + 253.75
= 3403.75
The future dollar cost of meeting this SF obligation will be calculated thus:
= Forward rate × Number of units
= 0.63 × 5000
= $3150
The future spot exchange rate that the person will be indifferent will be:
= (3150 - 253.75) / 5000
= $0.579

Depreciation $21,000 per month
Direct labor rate $15 per hour
Required:
Prepare a flexible budget for 12,000, 15,000, and 18,000 filing cabinets for the month of March
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Supervisor salaries $117,000 per month
Depreciation $21,000 per month
Direct labor rate $15 per hour
Cabinets per hour= 60/20= 3
We need to determine the flexible budget for different production levels:
12,000 units:
Total direct labor hours= (12,000 / 3)= 4,000 hours
Total variable cost= 4,000*15= 60,000
Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00
Total cost= $198,000
15,000 units:
Total direct labor hours= (15,000 / 3)= 5,000 hours
Total variable cost= 5,000*15= 75,000
Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00
Total cost= $213,000
18,000 units:
Total direct labor hours= (18,000 / 3)= 6,000 hours
Total variable cost= 6,000*15= 90,000
Total fixed costs= 21,000 + 117,000= 138,00
Total cost= $228,000

Explanation:
The manufacturing overhead budget at Polich Corporation is based on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,400 direct labor-hours will be required in February. The variable overhead rate is $8.50 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $108,780 per month, which includes depreciation of $18,080. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows.The company recomputes its predetermined overhead rate every month. The predetermined overhead rate for February should be:_____.
a. $193.690.
b. $211,850.
c. $112,940.
d. $80,750.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The computation of overhead rate for February is seen below
First, we need to determine the fixed manufacturing overhead per labor hour
Fixed manufacturing overhead per direct labor hour = Total manufacturing overhead ÷ Total direct labor hours
= $108,780 ÷ 7,400
= $14.7
Predetermined overhead rate = Variable overhead rate + Fixed manufacturing overhead rate
= $8.50 + $14.70
= $23.2 per direct labor hour

An asset falling under the MACRS five-year class was purchased three years ago for $200,000 (its original depreciation basis). Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at a) $60,000 and b) $80,000. Assume the applicable tax rate is 40 percent.
Answer:
(a) The cash flows is $59,040.
(b) The cash flows is $71,040.
Explanation:
From the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) Tables, the depreciation rates for the first 3 years for an asset falling under the MACRS five-year class are 20%, 32% and 19.2%. Therefore, we have:
Accumulated depreciation rate = 20% + 32% + 19.2% = 71.20%
Accumulated depreciation = Cost of the asset * Accumulated depreciation rate = $200,000 * 71.20% = $142,400
Net book value of the asset = Cost of the asset - Accumulated depreciation = $200,000 - $142,400 = $57,600
We can now proceed as follows:
(a) Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at $60,000
Capital gains = Sales proceeds - Net book value = $60,000 - $57,600 = $2,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains * Tax rate = $2,400 * 40% = $960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax = $60,000 - $960 = $59,040
Therefore, the cash flows is $59,040 net sales proceeds.
(b) Calculate the cash flows if the asset is sold now at $80,000
Capital gains = Sales proceeds - Net book value = $80,000 - $57,600 = $22,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains * Tax rate = $22,400 * 40% = $8,960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax = $80,000 - $8,960 = $71,040
Therefore, the cash flows is $71,040 net sales proceeds.
The cash flows is $59,040 and $71,040 when asset are sold at $60,000 and $80,000.
What is MACRS depreciation?MACRS stands for modified accelerated cost recovery system is the depreciation system in the U.S. where the cost of the asset is recovered in a specific period through deduction.
Given:
Asset=$200,000
The depreciation rate for 5 year asset are:20%, 32%, 19.2%, 11.52%, 11.52% and 5.76%
Accumulated depreciation for 3 years=20% + 32% + 19.2% = 71.20%
=asset cost X depreciation rate for 3 years
=$200,000 X 71.20% = $142,400
Net Book value=Asset Cost - Accumulated depreciation
=$200,000 - $142,400
= $57,600
(a)Cash flows if assets sold at $60,000
Capital gains = Sales - Net book value
=$60,000 - $57,600
= $2,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains X Tax rate
= $2,400 * 40% = $960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax
= $60,000 - $960 = $59,040
(b)Cash flows if assets sold at $80,000
Capital gains = Sales - Net book value
= $80,000 - $57,600
= $22,400
Capital gains tax = Capital gains X Tax rate
= $22,400 * 40% = $8,960
Net sales proceeds = Sales proceeds - Capital gains tax
= $80,000 - $8,960 = $71,040
Therefore the above calculation aptly gives the solution.
