A TV manufacturing company uses speakers at the rate of 8000/mo. When it places an order for speakers it incurs a fixed cost of $1200. The monthly interest rate for keeping a speaker in stock is assessed at 1%/mo. The cost of the speaker depends on the order size. If less than 1000 speakers are ordered the cost is $11 each. When the order size is between 1000 and 10,000 the cost is $10.50/unit. For order sizes between 10,000 and 30,000 the cost is $10 per unit. For order quantities between 30,000 and 80,000 the cost drops to $9.50. Beyond 80,000 the cost is $9.25. Determine the optimum order size and time between orders if shortages are not allowed.

A game has a saddle point when the maximin payoff value equals the minimax payoff value. true or false

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

To answer this question, I'll use the following illustration.

Minimax = <10,18,15>

Maximax = <8,4,10>

The payoff of the minimax is 10 (i.e. the smallest) and the payoff of the maximax is 10 (i.e. the largest)

Both payoffs are equal; hence, 10 is the saddle point.

The Molding Department of Boswell Company has the following production data: beginning work process 40,000 units (60% complete), started into production 730,000 units, completed and transferred out 690,000 units, and ending work in process 80,000 units (40% complete). Assuming conversion costs are incurred uniformly during the process, the equivalent units for conversion costs are:

Answers

Answer: 770,000 units

Explanation:

The Equivalent units for Conversion cost is calculated as:

= Total units completed and transferred out + Equivalent units of closing work in process

As the conversion costs were incurred uniformly during the process, the entire closing work in process would have already incurred conversion cost. Conversion cost closing equivalent units are therefore 80,000 units.

Equivalent units for Conversion cost = 690,000 + 80,000

= 770,000 units

Answers

Answer: 218.75%

Explanation:

In order to breakeven, the variable manufacturing cost would have to be the same as the fixed costs in addition to the administrative costs.

= Fixed costs + Administrative cost

= 1,200,000 + 550,000

= $1,750,000

Variable cost needs to be $1,750,000

It is currently at $800,000 so it needs to increase by:

= 1,750,000 / 800,000 * 100%

Estimated variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.50 per machine-hour
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead 838,710
The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to:________.
A. $6.66 per machine-hour
B. $10.50 per machine-hour
C. $8.69 per machine-hour
D. $15.00 per machine-hour

Answers

Answer:

D. $15.00 per machine hour

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year is seen below;

First, we will calculate the fixed overhead rate.

Fixed overhead rate = Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead / Estimated machine - hours

Fixed overhead rate = $838,710 / 72,900

Fixed overhead rate = $11.50

Then,

Predetermined overhead rate = Fixed overhead rate + Variable overhead rate

Predetermined overhead rate = $11.50 + $3.50

Predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to $15.00 per machine hour

Accounting profit = $32,000

Economic profit = $9,000

Explanation:

Accounting profit= total revenue - explicit cost

Total revenue =price x quantity sold  

Explicit cost includes the amount expended in running the business.

They include rent , salary and cost of raw materials

With so many workers habituated to using mobile devices for so much of their work, should company management develop apps for influencing subordinates? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

This is not a yes or no answer.

The action of leadership/management would depend on their assessment of the impact of the habit on the results being delivered by the workers.

The questions to ask are:

Does the use of the mobile phone for their work reduce or increase productivity?Does what are the advantages? are there disadvantages?What would developing an app achieve for management?

Explanation:

In trying to influence workers who are already habituated or accustomed to a particular way of doing things, it is best practice to study the culture and establish what its advantages are. This can then be compared to its demerits. If the demerits clearly and consistently present risks that make of no relevance the advantages, the leader(s) must move to correct such a risk.

So assuming that using mobile phones makes ICT risks (such as loss of company data, loss of company data, risk of unauthorised access etc) even more pronounced, whether or not the app is the best solution will depend on the total cost of that solution to the company weighed against other options.

Other options could simply be

- looking for an already existing app

- banning the using of mobile phone for office work using etc

- re-establishing the use of laptops as the preferred work tool

In any of the above scenarios, the leadership will succeed in influencing its workers positively if it:

plays its part well as a cultural shift role modelbecomes an arbiter of the policies modifying changes affecting work styleencourages the new workstyle by rewarding those that embrace it openly manage change by ensuring that there is a training platform that helps ease the transition into the new work style.

Windhoek Mines, Ltd., of Namibia, is contemplating the purchase of equipment to exploit a mineral deposit on land to which the company has mineral rights. An engineering and cost analysis has been made, and it is expected that the following cash flows would be associated with opening and operating a mine in the area: Cost of new equipment and timbers $ 370,000 Working capital required $ 115,000 Annual net cash receipts $ 130,000 * Cost to construct new roads in year three $ 43,000 Salvage value of equipment in four years $ 68,000 *Receipts from sales of ore, less out-of-pocket costs for salaries, utilities, insurance, and so forth. The mineral deposit would be exhausted after four years of mining. At that point, the working capital would be released for reinvestment elsewhere. The company’s required rate of return is 18%. Click here to view Exhibit 12B-1 and Exhibit 12B-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables. Required: a. What is the net present value of the proposed mining project? b. Should the project be accepted?

Answers

Answer:

Windhoek Mines, Ltd., of Namibia

a. The net present value (NPV) of the proposed mining project is:

= -$117,258

b. No. The project should be rejected.  It has a negative NPV.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of new equipment and timbers = $370,000

Working capital required = $115,000

Cost to construct new roads in year three = $43,000

Annual net cash receipts = $130,000

Salvage value of equipment in four years = $68,000

Company's  required rate of return = 18%

Mining duration = 4 years

Annuity factor for 4 years at 18% = 2.1690

Relevant discount factors at 18%:

Year 3 = 0.712

Year 4 = 0.636

Present values of Cash Flows:

Transaction                                             Cash Flows  PV Factor  PV Amount

Cost of new equipment and timbers      $370,000    1.000       -$370,000

Working capital required                             115,000    1.000          -115,000

Cost to construct new roads in year three 43,000    0.712            -30,616

Annual net cash receipts                           130,000    2.169           281,970

Salvage value of equipment in four years 68,000   0.636             43,248

Working capital released                           115,000    0.636             73,140

Net present value                                                                         -$117,258

University Car Wash built a deluxe car wash across the street from campus. The new machines cost $270,000 including installation. The company estimates that the equipment will have a residual value of $24,000. University Car Wash also estimates it will use the machine for six years or about 12,000 total hours. Actual use per year was as follows: Year Hours Used 1 3,100 2 1,100 3 1,200 4 2,800 5 2,600 6 1,200 2. Prepare a depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.

Answers

Answer:

Year       Depreciation expenses

  1                        $90,000

 2                        $60,000

 3                        $40,000

 4                        $26,667

 5                        $17,778

 6                        $11,556

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.

The double-declining-balance method is a depreciation approach in which the rate of depreciation for an asset is twice the rate of depreciation for the straight line method.

In the attached excel, the double-declining-balance depreciation rate is therefore calculated as follows:

Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Number of expected useful years = 1 / 6 = 0.166666666666667 = 16.6666666666667%

Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = 16.6666666666667% *2 = 33.3333333333334%

Also note the following in the attached excel file:

Beginning depreciable amount in Year 1 = Cost of the new machine = $270,000

The depreciation expenses for Year 6 is calculated by deducting the residual value of $24,000 from Year 6 Beginning depreciable amount. That is:

Depreciation expenses for Year 6 = $35,556 - $24,000 = $11,556

The residual value of $24,000 therefore represents the book value at the end of Year 6.

From the attached excel file, we therefore have:

Year       Depreciation expenses

  1                        $90,000

 2                        $60,000

 3                        $40,000

 4                        $26,667

 5                        $17,778

 6                        $11,556

rt,  a $0.73 per share cash dividend was declared by the board of directors for it common stock. On 12/31, the date of declaration, there were 98,000 shares authorized, 59,000 shares issued, and 8,000 Treasury shares. On the date of the dividend declaration, what amount will Walmart record into their dividend account

Answers

Answer:

$36,792

Explanation:

Missing word "At Walmart, the board of directors declared a $0.73"

Outstanding stockholder = Issued stockholder - Treasury stock

Outstanding stockholder = 59,000 shares - 8,600 shares

Outstanding stockholder = 50,400 shares

Amount of Dividend =  Declared per share cash dividend * Outstanding stockholder

Amount of Dividend = 50,400 shares * $0.73

Amount of Dividend = $36,792

So therefore, on the date of the dividend declaration, $36,792 shall be recorded by Walmart into their dividend account.
