Purple Cab Company had 70,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, 2021. On April 1, 2021, the company issued 40,000 shares of common stock. The company had outstanding fully vested incentive stock options for 7,000 shares exercisable at $12 that had not been exercised by its executives. The average market price of common stock was $14. The company reported net income in the amount of $289,915 for 2021. What is the basic earnings per share (rounded)

Answers

Answer:

Purple Cab Company

The basic earnings per share is:

= $2.64 per share.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

January 1, 2021, Outstanding common stock shares = 70,000

April 1, 2021, Issue of new common stock shares = 40,000

December, 31, 2021, Outstanding common stock shares = 110,000

Outstanding fully vested incentive stock options = 7,000

Exercise price of options = $12

Common stock market price = $14

Reported net income = $289,915

The basic earnings per share = $ (Net income/Outstanding common stock)

= $289,915/110,000

= $2.64 per share

b) The basic earnings per share does not include the fully vested incentive stock options.  It is only when calculating the diluted earnings per share that the stock options will be included.

ctivity-Based Costing (ABC) is useful in: Select one: A. Breakdown COGS into DL, DM, and FOH B. Breaking down FOH more accurately into cost drivers C. Breaking down FOH into one overhead rate D. Breaking down DL and DM by product

Answers

Answer:

B. Breaking down FOH more accurately into cost drivers

Explanation:

In the case of activity based costing, the activity of the fixed cost should be breakdown based on the number of activity pools while the fixed cost should be breakdown as per the cost drivers. Also, there is more than one overhead rate existed. In addition to this, it is the method for distribution of the overhead with those firms who is able to used it

Therefore the option b is correct

EcoFabrics has budgeted overhead costs of $1,162,350. It has allocated overhead on a plantwide basis to its two products (wool and cotton) using direct labor hours which are estimated to be 553,500 for the current year. The company has decided to experiment with activity-based costing and has created two activity cost pools and related activity cost drivers. These two cost pools are cutting (cost driver is machine hours) and design (cost driver is number of setups). Overhead allocated to the cutting cost pool is $442,800 and $719,550 is allocated to the design cost pool. Additional information related to these pools is as follows.

Gluon Inc. is considering the purchase of a new high pressure glueball. It can purchase the glueball for $220,000 and sell its old low-pressure glueball, which is fully depreciated, for $40,000. The new equipment has a 10-year useful life and will save $48,000 a year in expenses. The opportunity cost of capital is 10%, and the firm’s tax rate is 21%. What is the equivalent annual saving from the purchase if Gluon can depreciate 100% of the investment immediately. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

EQUIVALENT ANNUAL SAVING:

"the equivalent annual saving from the purchase if Gluon can depreciate 100% of the investment immediately is $13,245.99".

Since they are  purchasing the new machine by first disposing off the old machine.

Hence,

First step is to Determine the Net initial investment

Net initial investment = $220,000 - $40,000

Net initial investment= $180,000

Second step is to determine the Total savings

Depreciation = $220,000/10

Depreciation = $22,000

Savings before tax = $48,000 - $22,000

Savings before tax= $26,000

Tax at 21% = (21%*$26,000)

Tax at 21% =$5,460

Savings after tax  $20,540

($26,000-$5,460)

Add back depreciation $22,000

Cash flow after tax $42,540

($20,540+$22,000)

Third step is to determine PV of CFAT and NPV

PV of CFAT = $42,540 x (10%, PVFA10Y)

PV of CFAT = $42,540 x 6.1446

PV of CFAT = $261,391

NPV = $261,391 - $180,000 = $81,391

Now let determine the EQUIVALENT ANNUAL SAVING(EAS)

Equivalent annual saving(EAS) = NPV/(10%, PVFA10Y)

Equivalent annual saving(EAS)= $81,391/6.1446

Equivalent annual saving(EAS)= $13,245.99

Therefore the EQUIVALENT ANNUAL SAVING from the purchase if Gluon can depreciate 100% of the investment immediately is $13,245.99

Have you ever financed anything on a short term or long term arrangement? ​

Answers

Answer:

Financing is a very important part of every business. Firms often need financing to pay for their assets, equipment, and other important items. Financing can be either long-term or short-term. As is obvious, long-term financing is more expensive as compared to short-term financing.

There are different vehicles through which long-term and short-term financing is made available. This chapter deals with the major vehicles of both types of financing.

Explanation:

Long-Term Financing

Long-term financing is usually needed for acquiring new equipment, R&D, cash flow enhancement, and company expansion. Some of the major methods for long-term financing are discussed below.

Equity Financing

Equity financing includes preferred stocks and common stocks. This method is less risky in respect to cash flow commitments. However, equity financing often results in dissolution of share ownership and it also decreases earnings.

The cost associated with equity is generally higher than the cost associated with debt, which is again a deductible expense. Therefore, equity financing can also result in an enhanced hurdle rate that may cancel any reduction in the cash flow risk.

Corporate Bond

A corporate bond is a special kind of bond issued by any corporation to collect money effectively in an aim to expand its business. This tern is usually used for long-term debt instruments that generally have a maturity date after one year after their issue date at the minimum.

Short-Term Financing

Short-term financing with a time duration of up to one year is used to help corporations increase inventory orders, payrolls, and daily supplies. Short-term financing can be done using the following financial instruments −

Commercial Paper

Commercial Paper is an unsecured promissory note with a pre-noted maturity time of 1 to 364 days in the global money market. Originally, it is issued by large corporations to raise money to meet the short-term debt obligations.

It is backed by the bank that issues it or by the corporation that promises to pay the face value on maturity. Firms with excellent credit ratings can sell their commercial papers at a good price.

Asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) is collateralized by other financial assets. ABCP is a very short-term instrument with 1 and 180 days’ maturity from issuance. ACBCP is typically issued by a bank or other financial institution.

Promissory Note

It is a negotiable instrument where the maker or issuer makes an issue-less promise in writing to pay back a pre-decided sum of money to the payee at a fixed maturity date or on demand of the payee, under specific terms.

The Chiemsee Knee Replacement Clinic (CKRC) is a sports clinic located at the northern edge of the German Alps. It specializes in knee replacements for skiers who come to CKRC from Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Italy. The clinic currently has one operating room (OR). However, since the clinic has dramatically more demand than capacity, the management team contemplates investing in a second OR. A lean consulting firm, however, suggests that before going ahead with installing new capacity, the clinic should first look at how it uses its existing capacity. The data collected by the consulting firm reveal that:

The OR is available for 12 hours a day; the hospital has decided to not perform any procedures between 7pm and 7am. This time is equally divided across three surgeons.
The standard procedure time for the knee surgery done at the clinic is 1h.
The cleaning and housekeeping that needs to happen after each procedure takes 20 minutes. Almost all of this time could be saved if the cleaning crew were notified earlier on.
10 minutes are spent on patient preparation / anesthesia work before each procedure. (Note: this is not part of the 60-minute procedure time). Proposals have been evaluated to move these 10 minutes to outside the OR, and there exists no medical reason that would prohibit doing this.)
A surgeon only starts a case if all of the work associated with the case (preparation, procedure, and cleaning) can be completed in the 4h allotted to each surgeon. Surgeons never start BEFORE their allotted time.
Though the clinic aims to operate 7 days a week, holidays, vacation, and construction time lead to an average of one day a week that the OR cannot be used at all.
What is the OEE of the operating room? Assume a 12h window in which the OR could be used.

Answers

The OEE of the Operating Room is 34.8%.

Operating Room Overall Equipment Effectiveness

To calculate the OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) of the OR, you need to consider three factors: availability, performance, and quality.

Availability: The OR is available for 12 hours a day, but there is a 1 hour window between 7pm and 7am when it is not used. Additionally, there is an average of one day a week when the OR cannot be used at all. Therefore, the availability is:

(12 hours - 1 hour) / 12 hours * 7 days/week - 1 day/week = 0.92 or 92%

Performance: The standard procedure time for the knee surgery is 1 hour, and 10 minutes are spent on patient preparation and anesthesia work. The cleaning and housekeeping takes 20 minutes, and a surgeon only starts a case if all of the work can be completed in the 4 hours allotted to each surgeon. Therefore, the performance is:

1 hour + 10 minutes + 20 minutes = 1 hour and 30 minutes / 4 hours = 0.375 or 37.5%

Quality: Quality is not mentioned in the data provided, so it is assumed to be 100%.

To calculate OEE, you need to multiply availability, performance, and quality:

OEE = availability * performance * quality = 0.92 * 0.375 * 1 = 0.348 or 34.8%

So, the OEE of the OR is 34.8%.

Department M had 2,000 units 56% completed in process at the beginning of June, 13,500 units completed during June, and 1,000 units 28% completed at the end of June. What was the number of equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June if the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories? a.14,780 units b.13,780 units c.12,660 units d.11,500 units

Answers

Answer:

c.12,660 units

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What was the number of equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June if the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories

Using this formula

EUP (FIFO) = Completed Units + Ending units - Beginning units

Let plug in the formula

EUP (FIFO)=13,500 +( 1,000 x 28%)- (2,000 x 56%)

EUP (FIFO)= 13,500+280-$1120

EUP (FIFO)=12,660 units

Therefore the number of equivalent units of production for conversion costs for June if the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories is 12,660 units

Welcome Inn management has set a minimum acceptable rate of return of 14%.
a. Determine the equal annual net cash flows from operating the hotel.
b. Calculate the net present value of the new hotel. Use 7.003 for the present value of an annuity of $1 at 14% for 30 periods.
c. Does your analysis support construction of the new hotel?

Answers

Answer:

a. Annual Net cash flows:

= Revenue - Expenses + Depreciation

= 26,000,000 - 15,000,000 + (90,000,000 / 30 years)

= 11,000,000 + 3,000,000

= $14,000,000

b. Net present value:

First year's extraction quantity = 418,000

Expenses for the first year = 418,000/2,000,000 * $6,500,000

= $1,350,000

Calculate the total Social Security and Medicare tax burden on a sole proprietorship earning 2020 profit of $300,000, assuming a single sole proprietor with no other earned income.

Answers

Answer: $25,802.70

Explanation:

Social security

Social security rates in 2020 for a single sole proprietor is 12.40% on the first $137,700:

= 12.40% * 300,000

= $17,074.80

Medicare Tax

First you need to remove a deduction of 7.65% from the income:

= 300,000 * (1 - 7.65%)

= $277,050

Medicare tax is 2.90% of this adjusted amount in addition to 0.9% for any amount above $200,000:

= (2.90% * 277,050) + (0.9% * (277,050 - 200,000))

= 8,034.45 + 693.45

= $8,727.90

Total Social security and Medicare:

= 17,074.80 + 8,727.9

= $25,802.70

A company must repay the bank $10,000 cash in three years for a loan. The loan agreement specifies 8% interest compounded annually. The present value factor for three years at 8% is 0.7938. How much cash did the company receive from the bank on the day they borrowed this money?
A. $12,400.
B. $9,200.
C. $7,938.
D. $7,600.
E. $10,000.

Answers

Answer: C. $7,938

Explanation:

This is a straightforward question. From the question, we are informed that a company must repay the bank $10,000 cash in three years for a loan and that the loan agreement specifies 8% interest compounded annually and we are given the present value factor for three years at 8% is 0.7938.

Therefore, the amount of cash that the company receive from the bank on the day they borrowed this money will be:

= $10000 × Present value factor at 8%

= $10000 × 0.7938

= $7938

(0, 0), (3, 12), (9, 36)1243 In countries where automobile insurance includes compensation for whiplash injuries sustained in automobile accidents, reports of having suffered such injuries are twice as frequent as they are in countries where whiplash is not covered. Presently; no objective test for whiplash exists, so it is true that spurious reports of whiplash injuries cannot be readily identified. Nevertheless, these facts do not warrant the conclusion drawn by some commentators that in the countries with the higher rates of reported whiplash injuries, half of the reported cases are spurious. Clearly, in countries where automobile insurance does not include compensation for whiplash, people often have little incentive to report whiplash injuries that they actually have suffered.In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?(A) The first is a claim that the argument disputes; the second is a conclusion that has been based on that claim.(B) The first is a claim that has been used to support a conclusion that the argument accepts; the second is that conclusion.(C) The first is evidence that has been used to support a conclusion for which the argument provides further evidence; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.(D) The first is a finding whose implications are at issue in the argument; the second is a claim presented in order to argue against deriving certain implications from that finding.(E) The first is a finding whose accuracy is evaluated in the argument; the second is evidence presented to establish that the finding is accurate.
