3. The depreciation is the manufacturing overhead cost as it is the indirect cost.

4.  The rent facility should be classified as the manufacturing overhead cost and distributed as per the cost drivers.

The lender then will require that Cal pay off the loan over the next 13 years at 9 percent interest. What will his annual payment be

Answers

Answer:

$3,753.59

Explanation:

Value of debt at end of 5 years = $21,000 * (1 + 6%)^5

Value of debt at end of 5 years = $21,000 * 1.3382255776

Value of debt at end of 5 years = $28102.7371296

Value of debt at end of 5 years = $28,102.74

Let x be the annual payments:

x*[1 - (1 + 9%)^-13] / 9% = $28,102.74

x * [1-0.32617864688] / 0.09 = $28,102.74

x * 7.486904 = $28,102.74

x = $28,102.74 / 7.486904

x = 3753.58626

x = $3,753.59

d. $37,400

Answers

Answer:

Billed costs= $32,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total estimated cost attorney= 12*100,000= $1,200,000

Total estimated cost paraprofessional= 5*30,000= $150,000

Estimated Indirect costs= $250,000

Estimated number of hours= 50,000

First, we need to calculate the allocation rate:

Allocation rate= total estimated costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Allocation rate=   (1,200,000 + 150,000 + 250,000) / 50,000

Allocation rate= 1,600,000/50,000

Allocation rate= $32

Now, for 1,000 hours:

Billed costs= 1,000*32= $32,000

We need to calculate the number of units to be sold to maintain a profit of $175,000.

Unitary variable cost= $3

Fixed expenses= $350,000

Selling price= $7

Net income= total contribution margin - fixed cost

175,000= number of units*(7 - 3) - 350,000

525,000 = number of units*4

525,000 / 4= number of units

Answer:

FV= $804,326.91

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit (A)= $100

Interest rate (i)= 0.092/12= 0.0077

Number of periods= 45*12= 540 months

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

You sell 25,000 loaf of bread per year. The carrying cost associated the main ingredient wheat flour is estimated to be $8 per unit (amount used for 1 loaf of bread) per year, and the ordering cost is $10 per order. And assume 1 year is 300 days and lead time is 3 days.

Required:
a. What is the EOQ?
b. How much money you will lose if you order 300 units of wheat flour? Calculate the total cost of inventory with EOQ model and with order size is 300. The difference will give you the answer.
c. Calculate the re-order point (assuming no uncertainty)?

Answers

Answer:

Annual Demand (D) = 25000

Carrying Cost (H) = 8

Ordering Costs (S) = 10

Number of working days = 300

Lead Time (Lt) = 3 days

a. EOQ = Sqrt (2*D*S/H)

EOQ = Sqrt (2*25000*10/8)

EOQ = Sqrt (62500)

EOQ = 250

b. Total Cost = (D * S) / EOQ + (EOQ * H) / 2

Total Cost = (25000 * 10) / 250 + (250 * 8) / 2

Total Cost = 1000 + 1000

Total Cost = 2000

Now, we calculate total Cost with order size: of 300

Total Cost = (25000 * 10) / 300 + (300 * 8) / 2

Total Costs = 833.3333 + 1200

Total Cost = 2,033.3333

The amount to lost if we order 300 units of wheat flour is as follows

= 2033.33 - 2000

= $33.33

3. ROP = (D / Number of working days) x Lt

ROP = (25000 / 300) * 3

ROP = 83.3333 * 3

ROP = 249.9999

ROP = 250

b.) $715,390.47
c.) $530,230.59
d.) $1,009,963.02

Answers

Answer:

a.) $841,635.85

Explanation:

The value of the Treasury note is the present value of its future cash flows, its semiannual coupon payments and the face value receivable by the investors in the T-note at maturity.

Semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate*6/12

face value=$1,000,000

coupon rate=6%

semiannual coupon=$1,000,000*6%*6/12

semiannual coupon=$30,000( there would 8 semiannual coupons in 4 years)

The present value of the cash flows can be determined using a financial calculator bearing in mind that the calculator would be set to its default end mode before making the following inputs:

N=8(semiannual coupons)

PMT=30000(amount of each semiannual coupon)

= 76.61%

So, it is greater than 70% but less than or equal to 90%

Ramble On Co. wishes to maintain a growth rate of 13.6 percent per year, a debt-equity ratio of 1.8, and a dividend payout ratio of 30 percent. The ratio of total assets to sales is constant at .98. What profit margin must the firm achieve

Answers

Answer: 5.99%

Explanation:

Based on the question,

Dividend payout ratio = 30%

Therefore, the retention ratio will be:

= 1 - 30%

= 70%

Growth rate = 13.6%

We'll the use the sustainable growth rate formula which will be:

0.136 = (ROE x 0.7)/ (1-(ROE x 0.7))

0.136(1 - (0.7ROE)) = 0.7ROE

ROE = 0.136/0.7952

ROE = 0.171026

Then, the Profit margin will be:

ROE = Profit Margin x Asset Turnover x Equity multiplier

0.171026 = PM x (1/0.98) x (1 + 1.8)

0.171026 = PM x (1/0.98) x 2.8

PM = 0.171026 x 0.98/2.8

PM = 0.0598591

Profit margin = 5.99%

Consider two stocks, A and B. Stock A has an expected return of 10% and a beta of 1.2. Stock B has an expected return of 14% and a beta of 1.8. The expected market rate of return is 9% and the risk-free rate is 5%. Security __________ would be considered the better buy because

Answers

Answer:

B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%

Explanation:

Here are the options :

A; it offers an expected excess return of .2%A; it offers an expected excess return of 2.2%B; it offers an expected excess return of 1.8%B; it offers an expected return of 2.4%

to determine which stock is the better buy, we have to calculate the expected return of the stocks using CAPM

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

Stock A = 5% + 1.2(9% - 5%) = 9.8%

Stock B = 5% + 1.8(9% - 5%) = 12.20%

The next step is to determine the excess return

stated expected return - calculated expected return = excess return

Stock A's excess return = 10% - 9.8% - 0.2%

Stock B's excess return = 14 - 12.20 = 1.8%

Security B would be considered because it has a higher excess return

Select financial statement data for two recent years for Davenport Company are as follows:
20Y5 20Y4
Sales $1,776,000 $1,020,000
Fixed assets: Beginning of year 720,000 640,000
End of year 760,000 720,000
a. Determine the fixed asset turnover ratio for 20Y4 and 20Y5. Round to one decimal place.
20Y5 20Y4
Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio
b. Does the change in the fixed asset turnover ratio from 20Y4 to 20Y5 indicate a favorable or an unfavorable change?

Answers

Answer:

20Y5 = 2.4

20Y4 = 1.5

It is favourable

Explanation:

Fixed asset turnover = revenue / average net fixed assets

Average fixed asset =( fixed asset at the beginning of year + fixed asset at the end of year) / 2

20y5 = (720,000 + 760,000) / 2 = 740,000

20y4 = (720,000 + 640000) / 2 = 680,000

Fixed asset turnover = $1,776,000 / 740,000 = 2.4

$1,020,000 / 680,000 = 1.5

the higher the ratio, the better for a firm. it means that less fixed asset is generating higher revenues
