Hordel Company needs to determine a markup for a new product. Hordel expects to sell 6,100 units and wants a target profit of $93 per unit. Additional information is as follows: Variable product cost per unit $ 80 Variable administrative cost per unit 35 Total fixed overhead 53,000 Total fixed administrative 11,050 Using the variable cost method, what markup percentage to variable cost should be used

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Total variable cost = Variable product cost + Variable administrative cost per unit

= (6,100 × $80 per unit) + (6,100 × $35)

= $488,000 + $213,500

= $701,500

Total fixed cost = Total fixed overhead + Total fixed administrative cost

= $53,000 + $11,050

= $64,050

Total fixed cost per unit = $64,050 ÷ 6,100 = $10.5

Total cost = Total variable cost + Total fixed cost

= $701,500 + $64,050

= $765,550

Target profit = 6,100 × $93 = $567,300

Desired selling price = Total cost + Target profit

= $765,550 + $567,300

= $1,332,850

Desired selling price per unit = $1,332,850 ÷ 6,100 = $218.5

Therefore,

Markup percentage on variable cost

= [(Desired selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit) ÷ Variable cost per unit] × Variable cost per unit

= [($218.5 - 115) ÷ (115)] × 115

= 103.5%

Based on the Marshall Laws of Derived Demand, labor demand is more inelastic when a. workers are making a product that uses a highly labor intensive technology b. workers are making a product with more inelastic demand c. workers are making a product that uses a capital input with elastic supply d. workers are making a product that uses a technology with a fixed labor-capital ratio

Consider a project to supply Detroit with 28,000 tons of machine screws annually for automobile production. You will need an initial $4,800,000 investment in threading equipment to get the project started; the project will last for 5 years. The accounting department estimates that annual fixed costs will be $1,150,000 and that variable costs should be $215 per ton; accounting will depreciate the initial fixed asset investment straight-line to zero over the 5-year project life. It also estimates a salvage value of $525,000 after dismantling costs. The marketing department estimates that the automakers will let the contract at a selling price of $320 per ton. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $460,000. You require a return of 14 percent and face a tax rate of 25.

Required:
a. What is the percentage change in OCF if the units sold changes to 28,000?
b. What is the DOL at the base-case level of output?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0% change

b) 0.393

Explanation:

Degree of operating leverage:  DOL = 1 + [FC × (1 – TC) – TC × D]/OCF

Machine screws to be supplied = 28,000 tons

Initial investment in threading equipment  = $4,800,000

project period = 5 years

annual fixed cost = $1,150,000

variable cost = $215 per ton = 215 * 28,000 = $6,020,000

salvage value of project after dismantling costs = $525,000

selling price of project = $320 per ton = $8,960,000

initial networking capital investment = $460,000

Return = 14%

tax rate = 25% = 0.25

a) Determine the percentage change in OCF if the units sold changes to 28,000

Given  : DOL = 1 + [FC × (1 – TC) – TC × D]/OCF

OCF = [(contribution * number of units sold) - fixed costs] * ( 1-tax) + depreciation*tax    ----------- ( 1 )

contribution = sales price - variable cost = 320 - 215 = $105

number of units sold = 28,000

depreciation = 4,800,000 / 5 = $960,000

back to equation 1

OCF = [[ ( 105 *28,000) - 1,150,000 ] * ( 1 - 0.25 ) + 960,000 * 0.25 ]

        = $1,582,500  

Hence the percentage change = 0%  ( Initial units to be sold as given in the question = 28,000 as well )

b) Determine the DOL at the base-case level of output

DOL = 1 + [FC × (1 – TC) – TC × D] / OCF

        = 1 + [ 1,150,000 * ( 1 - 0.25 ) - 0.25 * 960,000 ] / 1,582,500  

        = 622501 / 1,582,500  = 0.393

Your company has finished working on an open world video game, CyberPerson 2080. You now have a decision to make. You can auction your game off to a publisher, or you can keep your game and do the marketing and publishing yourself. If you auction your game off, your analytics team estimates there is a 25% chance you will earn $5 million, a 35% chance you will earn $12 million, and a 40% chance you will earn $16 million. If you keep your game, your marketing and publishing costs will be $7 million. If you keep your game, your analytics team estimates there is a 30% chance your game will be a critical and commercial hit, a 25% chance your game will sell well and make gross revenues of $12 million, and a 45% chance another similar game will come out at the same time and you will make gross revenues of $1 million.

If your game is a critical and commercial hit, there is a 60% chance it is on the "best of the year" lists and makes gross revenues of $64 million, a 35% chance it stays on the top seller lists for weeks and makes gross revenues of $28 million, and a 5% chance it makes gross revenues of $18 million.

Sales $230,000
Cost of goods sold 150,000
Depreciation expense 30,000
Other expenses 20,000

Answers

Answer:

6

Explanation:

The computation of the shipping errors in the case of break even is given below;

But before that the net operating income is

Sales $230,000

Less: Cost of goods sold 150,000

Less: Depreciation expense 30,000

Less: Other expenses 20,000

Net operating income $30,000

Now the shipping errors is

= $30,000 ÷ ($3,000 + $2,000)

= 6

a. Unit contribution margin = $25

b. Break-even units

= 17,200 units

c. Break-even units to earn a target profit

= 26,560 units

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Sales price per unit   $ 68

Variable cost per unit   43

Contribution per unit $25

Total fixed manufacturing and operating costs (per month) 430,000

Target operating income = $234,000 per month

a. Unit contribution margin = $25

b. Break-even units = Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

= $430,000/$25

= 17,200 units

c. Break-even units to earn an operating income = (Fixed cost + Target Profit)/Contribution margin per unit

= ($430,000 + $234,000)/$25

= $664,000/$25

= 26,560 units

Aardvark Enterprises has agreed to be acquired by Lawson Products in exchange for $16,000 worth of Lawson Products stock. Lawson has 1,100 shares of stock outstanding at a price of $15 a share. Aardvark has 1,700 shares outstanding with a market value of $21 a share. The incremental value of the acquisition is $3,800. What is the value of Lawson Products after the merger? $51,520 $41,440 $56,000 $49,280 $44,800

Answers

Answer: $56000

Explanation:

The value of Lawson Products after the merger will be calculated thus:

Number of shares = 1100

Price of share = $15

Value of Lawson share = $16500

Number of shares = 1700

Price of share = $21

Value of Aardvark share = $35700

Market value of both firms will be:

= $16500 + $35700

= $52200

We then less incremental earnings from the market value and this will be:

= $52200 + $3800

= $56000

Therefore, the value of Lawson Products after the merger is $56000

Your firm has a contract to build one custom-designed machine that costs $100,000,000. This machine will operate at a paper recycling plant. It will take 1,000,000 pieces of paper per day, shred them into tiny fragments, grind them into paper dust, and create pulp used to make recycled paper envelopes. You need a gear motor to run at 10 horsepower with an output speed of 10 RPM. Your other option is buy a 10 horsepower, 1750 RPM motor, and design your own transmission system to reduce the speed to 10 RPM. Your firm has 10 engineers, and 2 of them would work full-time for six months to get the transmission system designed and built. The purchased gear motor would cost $10,000 and the purchase motor would cost $3,000. The transmission parts would cost another $3,000, saving you $4,000. Time is of the essence. You have only 6 months to design and build your machine.

Which makes more sense to you, buy the gear motor, or buy an AC motor and design and build your own gear transmission system?

Answers

Answer:

Buy the gear motor

Explanation:

Given that form the question Time is very important factor to be considered hence it will make more sense to buy the gear motor rather than buying the an AC motor because you cannot rely on the two engineers working fulltime  for 6 months because of the factor of uncertainty which might lead to delay in shipment  . also the difference in cost is not much compared to the value of the contract ( $1 billion )

Cost of Gear motor = $10,000

cost of AC motor = $3000 + $3000 = $6000

Say one morning you are considering whether to take UBER or riding the train to work. Both mediums would cost you about $4, but you have already paid in advance for the train (since you pay a flat fee at the beginning of the month). If the UBER would take slightly less time than the train ride, and you are mostly concerned with the time it takes you to get to work, you should:________
a) take the train since you already paid for it
b) take the UBER
c) be indifferent between either modes of transportation
d) find another way to get to work

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The flat fee paid for the train represents sunk cost. sunk cost is cost that is incurred and cannot be recovered. it should not be considered when making future decisions

You value getting to work early, the Uber is faster, so you should take the uber

Since you are mostly concerned with the time to get to work and less with the cost, you should still a). take the train since you already paid for it.

After all, the time-saving of the UBER ride is slightly less than the train ride, and you have already paid for the train ride.

The standards for product V28 call for 8.3 pounds of a raw material that costs $19.00 per pound. Last month, 2,200 pounds of the raw material were purchased for $41,360. The actual output of the month was 240 units of product V28. A total of 2,100 pounds of the raw material were used to produce this output.
The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased.
Required:
a. What is the materials price variance for the month?
b. What is the materials quantity variance for the month?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the direct material price variance, we need to use the following formula:

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

Direct material price variance= (19 - 18.8)*2,200

Direct material price variance= $440 favorable

Actual price= 41,360 / 2,200= $18.8

Now, we can determine the direct material quantity variance:

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

Direct material quantity variance= (8.3*240 - 2,100)*19

Direct material quantity variance= $2,052 unfavorable

Bramble Corp. recorded operating data for its shoe division for the year. Sales $2000000 Contribution margin 440000 Controllable fixed costs 180000 Average total operating assets 880000 How much is controllable margin for the year? 22% 50% $260000 $440000

Answers

Answer: 260000

Explanation:

The controllable margin for the year will be calculated thus:

Contribution margin = 440000

Less: Controllable Fixed Costs = 180000

Controllable margin will now be:

= 440,000 - 180,000

= 260,000

Therefore, the controllable margin will be 260000

On January 1, Year 1, Eureka Company issued $290,000 of 4-year, 5% bonds at face value. The annual cash payment for interest is due on January 1 of each year beginning January 1, Year 2. Based on this information, what is the total amount of liabilities related to these bonds that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1

Answers

Answer:

$304,500

Explanation:

Interest payable on December 31, year 1 = $290,000 * 5%

Interest payable on December 31, year 1 = $14,500

Total amount of liabilities to be reported on the Balance Sheet, year 1:

= $290,000 + $14,500

= $304,500

Assume that a profit-maximizing firm which competes in a purely competitive product industry has only two factor inputs, labor and capital, and that resource prices remain constant. This firm finds that the marginal revenue product of labor (MRP) when divided by the price for labor (MRC) is less than one. The firm also finds that the marginal revenue product for capital (MRP) when divided by the price (MRC) is greater than one. If this firm wishes to produce the same amount of output with these two resources, but minimize the cost of output, this firm must employ:________

a. less labor and more capital
b. more capital
c. more labor and capital
d. less labor
e. more labor and less capital

Answers

Answer: a. less labor and more capital

Explanation:

When the Marginal Revenue Product of Labor (MRP) is divided by the price for labor (MRC), the result is less than 1. This means that for every dollar spent on labor, labor produces less than a dollar. The labor is therefore not efficient.

This is the reverse for capital where the marginal revenue product for capital (MRP) when divided by the price (MRC) is greater than one which means that for every dollar investment in capital, more than a dollar is made.

As capital is more efficient, it would make sense to invest more in capital whilst reducing the investment in labor as this would lead to more gain for the company.

Sunland Company had the following department data: Physical Units Work in process, beginning 0 Completed and transferred out 90900 Work in process, ending 7800 Materials are added at the beginning of the process. What is the total number of equivalent units for materials during the period?

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent units of production= 98,700

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Physical Units Work in process, beginning 0

Completed and transferred out 90,900

Work in process, ending 7,800

Materials are added at the beginning of the process.

To calculate the equivalent units, we need to use the following formula:

Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production

Equivalent units of production= 0 + 90,900 + 7,800*1

Equivalent units of production= 98,700

Because the materials are added at the beginning of the process, the percentage of completion is 100%.

A company buys a machine for $69,000 that has an expected life of 7 years and no salvage value. The company uses straight-line depreciation. The company anticipates a yearly net income of $3,300 after taxes of 38%, with the cash flows to be received evenly throughout each year. What is the accounting rate of return

Answers

Answer:

9.57%

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return  = Annual after tax net income/Average investment

Accounting rate of return  = $3,300 / ($69,000/2)

Accounting rate of return  = $3,300 / $34,500

Accounting rate of return  = 0.095652174

Accounting rate of return  = 9.57%

Rock Adventures has 15 employees each working 40 hours per week and earning $30 an hour. Federal income taxes are withheld at 15% and state income taxes at 6%. FICA taxes are 7.65% and unemployment taxes are 3.8% of the first $7,000 earned per employee. What is the actual direct deposit of payroll for the first week of January

Answers

Answer:

the actual direct deposit payroll is $12,843

The computation of the actual direct deposit payroll is shown below;

= Total salary - withholdings

= (15 × 40 × $30) - Federal income tax - state income tax - FICA tax

= $18,000 - ($18,000 × 0.15) - ($18,000 × 0.06) - ($18,000 × 7.65%)

= $12,843

Hence, the actual direct deposit payroll is $12,843

Basically we applied the above formula
