Since the Troy Division also sustained an operating loss in the prior year, Rice's president is considering the elimination of this division. Troy Division's traceable fixed costs could be avoided if the division were eliminated. The total common corporate costs would be unaffected by the decision. If the Troy Division had been eliminated at the beginning of last year, Rice Corporation's operating income for last year would have been:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c. $30,000 lower

Explanation:

Missing word "Rice Corporation currently operates two divisions which had operating results last year as follows:

West Division Troy Division

Sales $600,000 $300,000

Variable costs 310,000 200,000

Contribution margin 290,000 100,000

Traceable fixed costs 110,000 70,000

Allocated common corporate costs 90,000 45,000

Net operating income (loss) $ 90,000 ($15,000)

Options are: a. $15,000 higher, b. $45,000 lower, c. $30,000 lower, d. $60,000 higher"

Particulars                                         Amount

Contribution margin                          $100,000

Less: Traceable fixed costs              $70,000

Segment margin of Troy Division   $30,000

The operating income would been $30,000 less without the segment margin contributed by the Troy Division. Hence, If the Troy Division had been eliminated at the beginning of last year, Rice Corporation's operating income for last year would have been $30,000 lower.

a. The price of a $4 sandwich increases to $5: percent
b. A sale discounts the price of a sofa from $750 to $500: percent

Answers

Answer:

0.22

-0.40

Explanation:

midpoint change in price = change in price / average of both price

a. change in price =  (5 - 4) = 1

average of both prices = 0.5 (4 + 5) = 4.50

midpoint change in price = 1/ 4.5 = 0.22

b.  change in price = (500 - 750) = -250

average of both prices = 0.5(750 + 500) = 625

-250 / 625 = -0.4

The Nelson Company has $1,196,000 in current assets and $460,000 in current liabilities. Its initial inventory level is $325,000, and it will raise funds as additional notes payable and use them to increase inventory. How much can Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) increase without pushing its current ratio below 2.0

Answers

Answer:

The amount by which Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) increase without pushing its current ratio below 2.0 is $138,000.

Explanation:

From the question, we have:

Initial current assets = $1,196,000

Initial current liabilities = $460,000

Initial inventory level = $325,000

Targeted current ratio = 2.0

Therefore, we have:

Initial current ratio = Initial current assets / Initial current liabilities = $1,196,000 / $460,000 = 2.60

New current liabilities = Initial current assets / Targeted current ratio = $1,196,000 / 2 = $598,000

Expected amount of increase in short-term debt = New current liabilities - Initial current liabilities = $598,000 - $460,000 = $138,000

By implication, we have:

Expected amount of increase in inventory level = Expected amount of increase in short-term debt = $138,000

New inventory level = Initial inventory level + Expected amount of increase in inventory level = $325,000 + $138,000 = $463,000

New current assets = Initial current assets + Expected amount of increase in inventory level = $1,196,000 +$138,000 = $1,334,000

We can now check as follows:

New current ratio = New current assets / New current liabilities = $1,334,000 / $598,000 = 2.23

Therefore, the amount by which Nelson's short-term debt (notes payable) increase without pushing its current ratio below 2.0 is $138,000.

Nelson's short-term debt can increase up to $276,000

The given information includes:

Current Assets = $1,196,000

Current liabilities = $460,000

So, when x amount is borrowed for short term and invested in inventory, then  the Revised Current assets = 1,196,000 + x and Revised Current liabilities = 460,000 + x

Lets understand that Revised Current ratio should be 2.0.

We all know that Current ratio = Current Assets / Current liabilities

Now, we input the values

2.0 = $1,196,000 + x  / $460,000 + x

$1,196,000 + x = 2.0x($460,000 + x)

$1,196,000 + x = 920,000 + 2x

2x - x = $1,196,000 - $920,000

x = $276,000

In conclusion, the amount of Nelson Short term debt can increase up to $276,000 without pushing its current ratio below 2.0.

Current liabilities 39,000
Long-term liabilities 90,000
Retained earnings 228,000

Answers

Answer:

2.23

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the current ratio

Using this formula

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

Where,

Current Assets = $87,000

Current Liabilities = $39,000

Let plug in the formula

Current Ratio = $87,000 / $39,000

Current Ratio = 2.23

Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. a. Direct materials price variance $fill in the blank 1 b. Direct materials quantity variance $fill in the blank 3 c. Total direct materials cost variance $fill in the blank 5

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the direct material price and quantity variance, we need to use the following formulas:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Direct material price variance= (3 - 2.88)*29,700

Direct material price variance= $3,564 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (6*4,800 - 29,700)*3

Direct material quantity variance= (28,800 - 29,700)*3

Direct material quantity variance= $2,700 unfavorable

Now, the total direct material variation:

total direct material variation= 3,564 - 2,700

total direct material variation= $864 favorable

Answers

Answer:

option 2

Explanation:

to determine the better option, calculate the present value of option 2. The more suitable option is the option with the higher present value

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

A proposed nuclear power plant will cost $2.2 billion to build and then will produce cash flows of $300 million a year for 15 years. After that period (in year 15), it must be decommissioned at a cost of $900 million. What is project NPV if the discount rate is 5%? What if it is 18%?

Answers

Answer:

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = $1346 .78

Project NPV at 18% discount rate = -597.4

Explanation:

Below is the given values:

Initial cost = $2.2 billion

Yearly cash inflow, A = $300 million

Time = 15 years

Salvage value, S = $900

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = A (P/A, 5%, 15) + S (P/F, 5%, 15) - Initial cost

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = 300 (P/A, 5%, 15) + 900 (P/F, 5%, 15) - $2.2 billion

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = 300 (10.3796) + 900 (0.4810) - $2.2 billion or 2200 million

Project NPV at 5% discount rate = $1346 .78

Now,

Project NPV at 18% discount rate = 300 (5.0915) + 900 (0.0835) - $2.2 billion or 2200 million

Project NPV at 18% discount rate = -597.4

Answers

Answer:

no

the marginal benefit of working overtime in terms of income is less than the marginal cost of working overtime

Explanation:

According to the marginal cost principle, i would be willing to work if marginal benefit exceeds marginal cost

Marginal cost = 32 + 6.5 + 12 + 55 = 105.50

Marginal benefit = 99

the marginal benefit of working overtime in terms of income is less than the marginal cost of working overtime. So, i won't work overtime

Grays Company uses a perpetual inventory system. On May 1, the company had inventory of 20 units at a cost of $8 each. On May 3, it purchased 30 units at $10 each. 22 units are sold on May 6. Under the weighted average inventory costing method, what amount will be reported as cost of goods sold for the 22 units that were sold

Answers

Answer: $9.20

Explanation:

Using the weighted average inventory costing method, the price is abased on the number of units and their price.

The above inventory cost would be calculated as follows:

= [ (Opening units * Cost of units) + (Units purchased * Cost of purchase) ] / Total units in inventory

= [ (20 * 8) + (30 * 10) ] / (20 units + 30 units)

= [ 160 + 300 ] / 50

Estrada Corporation produced 204,000 watches that it sold for $18 each. The company determined that fixed manufacturing cost per unit was $9 per watch. The company reported a $816,000 gross margin on its financial statements. Required Determine the variable cost per unit, the total variable product cost, and the total contribution margin.

Answers

Variable cost per unit

Total sales 204,000 x $18 = $3,672,000

Gross margin (given) $816,000

COGS=Total Sales -Gross Margin ($3,672,000-816,000)= $2,856,000

Total Fixed Cost 204,000 x $9 = $1,836,000

COGS Total variable cost + total fixed cost 2,856,000-1,836,000=$1,020,000

variable cost per unit (1020,000/204,000)= $5

Contribution margin $2,652,000

Total variable cost = $1,020,000Total variable cost = $5Contribution margin = $2,652,000

Given:

Number of watch produced = 204,000

Selling price of each watch = $18

Fixed cost = $9 per watch

Gross margin = $816,000

Find:

Variable cost per unit

Total variable product cost

Total contribution margin

Computation:

Total sales Value = 204,000 × $18

Total sales Value = $3,672,000  

Cost of goods sold = Total Sales - Gross Margin

Cost of goods sold = $3,672,000 - $816,000

Cost of goods sold = $2,856,000  

Total Fixed Cost = 204,000 × $9

Total Fixed Cost = $1,836,000  

Cost of goods sold = Total variable cost + Total fixed cost

So,

Total variable cost = $2,856,000 - $1,836,000

Total variable cost = $1,020,000

Variable cost per unit  = $1020,000 / 204,000

Total variable cost = $5  

Contribution margin = $3,672,000 - $1,020,000

Contribution margin = $2,652,000

A proposed new project has projected sales of $132,000, costs of $66,000, and depreciation of $13,500. The tax rate is 30%. Calculate operating cash flow using the four different approaches. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Approaches:
EBIT + Depreciation - Taxes
Operating cash flow $ _____
Top-down
Operating cash flow $ _____
Tax-shield
Operating cash flow $ _____
Bottom-up
Operating cash flow $ _____
Is the answer the same in each case? Yes or No?

Answers

Answer:Operating cash flow $ _50,250__

Yes, the answer is same in each case

Explanation:

a)   EBIT + Depreciation - Tax

= ($132,000-$66,000-$13,500) + $13,500 - Tax

= $52,500 + $13,500-(30% x $52,500)

=$52,500 + $13,500-15,750

EBIT + Depreciation - Tax=$50,250

b)Top down OCF = EBIT - (EBIT x Tax) + Depreciation  

Top down OCF = $52,500  - ($52,500 x 30%) +  $13,500  

Top down OCF = $52,500 -15,750 + $13,500

Top down OCF =$50,250

Tax shield OCF =(Sales - Cost)(1-t) + Depreciation (t)

Tax shield OCF = ($132,000-$66,000) (1-0.30) + ($13,500 x0.30)  

Tax shield OCF =$66,000 x 0.7 + 4,050

Tax shield OCF = 46,200+ 4,050

Tax shield OCF = $50,250

Bottom Up OCF = Net Income + Dep

Bottom Up OCF =($132,000-$66,000-$13,500 ) - Tax ) + Dep

Bottom Up OCF = $52,500-(0.3 x $52,500 )+ $13,500

Bottom Up OCF = $52,500 -15,750 + $13,500

Bottom Up OCF =$50,250

Jay and Carrie Garrett operate a small retail store in a college town that sells only house plants and accessories, which they named The Plantatarium. Their initial feeling when they went into business was that virtually everyone was a potential customer for house plants. Subsequent market research conducted for them painted a different picture. This research identified three particularly strong market segments. The first was college students ages 18-24. The next segment was retired seniors ages 65-80. The third segment was professional offices for doctors, accountants, and lawyers. The college students liked houseplants because they dressed up their living spaces. The senior liked them because they became the focus of a hobby. The professionals did not buy them for any reason other than décor.
