Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi the demand for each  product for this question is missing, however, i have provided step by step approach to solving the problem below .

Explanation:

First Calculate the contribution per unit of each product

                                                        A                           B                            C

Sales price                                  $65.50                $57.50                  $75.25

Less Total variable cost            ($28.85)              ($26.50)                ($38.95 )

Less Direct material cost            ($11.25)                ($8.90)                 ($22.75)

Contribution                                $25.40                 $22.10                   $13.25

Calculate the contribution per limiting factor of each product and rank the products

contribution per limiting factor = contribution per unit ÷ quantity per limiting factor per unit

                                                        A                           B                            C

Contribution                                $25.40                 $22.10                   $13.25

Quantity of limiting factor             4.65                      6.3                          5.9

Contribution per limiting factor   5.46                      3.51                        2.25

Ranking                                            1                           2                             3

Allocate the limiting factor according to the limiting factor

The company will on produce Product A as this is the most profitable.

Contribution =  $25.40

Products should be specified by brand because: a. price levels of brand items are low b. the number of potential suppliers is restricted c. it is difficult to develop accurate specifications for an item d. all of the above e. a and b above.

Answers

Answer:

C. It is difficult to develop accurate specifications for an item.

Explanation:

A product can be defined as any physical object or material that typically satisfy and meets the demands, needs or wants of customers. Some examples of a product are mobile phones, television, microphone, microwave oven, bread, pencil, freezer, beverages, soft drinks etc.

Generally, these products are manufactured and distributed through different marketing channels to various wholesalers or retailers before it gets to the consumers or customers.

Hence, each product should be distinguished from another through its brand name in order to enhance easier identification by the customers.

Products should be specified by brand because it is difficult to develop accurate specifications for an item. Thus, when a supplier such as a retailer or wholesaler wishes to place an order to a manufacturer, he or she should specify the order by brand.

Explanation:

The Bell Weather Co. is a new firm in a rapidly growing industry. The company is planning on increasing its annual dividend by 17 percent a year for the next 4 years and then decreasing the growth rate to 6 percent per year. The company just paid its annual dividend in the amount of $2.40 per share. What is the current value of one share of this stock if the required rate of return is 7.90 percent?

Answers

Answer:

$196.91

Explanation:

The computation of the current value is shown below:

D1 = ($2.4 × 1.17) = 2.808

D2 = ($2.808 × 1.17) = 3.28536

D3 = (3.28536 × 1.17) = 3.8438712

D4 = (3.8438712 × 1.17) = 4.4973293

Now

Value after year 4 is

= (D4 × Growth rate) ÷ (Required return - Growth rate)

= (4.4973293 × 1.06) ÷ (0.079 - 0.06)

= 250.903635

Now the current value is

= Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor

=$2.808  ÷ 1.079 + 3.28536 ÷ 1.079^2 + 3.8438712 ÷ 1.079^3 + 4.4973293 ÷ 1.079^4 + 250.903635 ÷ 1.079^4

= $196.91

A company distributes a product that sells for $50 per unit. Variable expenses are $10 per unit, and fixed expenses total $15,000 annually. Assume that the company sold 4,000 units last year. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with a $30,000 increase in advertising expenditures, would increase annual unit sales by 50%. If these changes were made, by how much would net operating income increase or decrease?

Answers

Answer:

Income will increase by $20,000.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the current income:

Current income= 4,000*(50 - 10) - 15,000= $145,000

Now, the new selling price, fixed costs, and sales in units:

Selling price= 50*0.9= $45

Fixed costs= $45,000

Sales= 4,000*1.5= 6,000

New income= 6,000*(45 - 10) - 45,000= $165,000

Difference= 165,000 - 145,000= 20,000

Income will increase by $20,000.

Which kind of monetary policy would you expect in response to high inflation:

a. Expansionary
b. Contractionary

Answers

Answer:

B. Contractionary Monetary Policy

Explanation:

According to Investopedia, inflation is a quantitative measure of the rate at which average price level of selected goods and services in an economy increases over a period of time which causes the purchasing power of the currency to fall.

One popular method of controlling high inflation is the Contractionary Monetary Policy. The aim of the contractionary monetary policy is to cut the supply of money within an economy by decreasing bond prices and increasing interest rates through the central bank.

When the Central Bank increases their interests rates, banks become forced to increase their rates as well which discourages consumers from borrowing and makes saving more attractive.

These help to cut down spending, causes prices of goods and services to drop and consequently causes inflation to slow down.

Rufus Inc. and Hardy Company are negotiating a nontaxable exchange of business properties. Rufus’s property has a $50,000 tax basis and a $77,500 FMV. Hardy’s property has a $60,000 tax basis and a $90,000 FMV. Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work? How much boot must be paid? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired? Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?

Answers

Answer:

Which party to the exchange must pay boot to make the exchange work?

Rufus must pay boot since the FMV of its property is less than the FMV of Hardy's property.

How much boot must be paid?

$90,000 - $77,500 = $12,500

Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Rufus realize and recognize on the exchange, and what tax basis will Rufus take in the property acquired?

Rufus doesn't have any gain, and the tax basis for the new asset will be $50,000 + $12,500 = $62,500

Assuming the boot payment is made, how much gain or loss will Hardy realize and recognize on the exchange and what tax basis will Hardy take in the property acquired?

Since Hardy's property basis is $60,000 and it would be receiving $50,000 (Rufus's property) + $12,500 = $62,500, then it must recognize a $2,500 gain. The basis of Hardy's new property will be $62,500.

"Consider the futures contract written on the S&P 500 index and maturing in one year. The interest rate is 3%, and the future value of dividends expected to be paid over the next year is $35. The current index level is 2,000. Assume that you can short sell the S&P index. a. Suppose the expected rate of return on the market is 8%. What is the expected level of the index in one year? b. What is the theoretical no-arbitrage price for a 1-year futures contract on the S&P 500 stock index? c. Suppose the actual futures price is 2,012. Is there an arbitrage opportunity here? If so, how would you exploit it?"

Answers

Answer:

a. $2125

b. $2025

c. there is an arbitrage opportunity.

Explanation:

a. St = So x (1+ rm)-D

So = current index price = 2000

rm = return on market = 8%

D = dividends = $35

inserting into the formula:

2000x(1+0.08)-35

= $2125

b.

So x (1+rf)-D

rf = 3%

2000 x (1+0.03)-35

= $2025

c. yes there is an arbitrage opportunity. the investor should go into contract with an exercise price of 2125dollars then short sell asset in future and after this, buy back after at future market price. since actual future price is 2012 and price expected is 2125.

Answer: Assets increase $4,500 and liabilities increase $4,500.

Explanation:

An asset are the properties which a business or an organization owns. An asset possess an economic value.

Since the equipment purchased is an asset, this will lead to an increase of assets by $4500 and since it was bought on credit and hasn't been paid for, liabilities will also increase by $4500.

Bellingham Company produced 15,000 units of product that required 4 standard direct labor hours per unit. The standard variable overhead cost per unit is $0.90 per direct labor hour. The actual variable factory overhead was $52,770. Determine the variable factory overhead controllable variance. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

Answers

Answer: variable factory overhead controllable variance=  -$1,230 which is Favorable.

Explanation:

Variance = Actual factory overhead – Budgeted allowance on standard hours allowed x Fixed expenses budgeted + variable expenses

Variable factory overhead controllable variance=Actual factory overhead-Standard Factory Overhead

But first.

Standard labor overheads cost == Units produced x standard direct labor hours per unit x standard overhead cost per unit per direct labor hour

15,000 x 4 x $0.90= $54,000

 And the given

Actual overhead cost = $52,770

Therefore,

Variable factory overhead controllable variance= Actual factory overhead-

Standard Factory Overhead

= $52,770-$54,000= - $1,230 which is Favorable.

it  favorable because the actual overhead cost is less than the standard overhead cost.

The favorable variable will be calculated by Actual overhead - Budgeted allowances on Standard hour X Fixed expenses + variable expenses in the similar way :

The Controllable of factory overhead is equal to Factory overhead - Standard factory overhead .

Unit produced 15000 X4(Standard direct labor ) X Cost per unit $0.09 = 54000USD.So the Actual Overhead cost will $52770

And the variable favorable cost will be ($1.230) which is less then the standard cost .

Question Completion:

Diego Company manufactures one product that is sold for $76 per unit in two geographic regions-the East and West regions. The following information pertains to the company's first year of operations in which it produced 58,000 units and sold 54,000 units.

Manufacturing Variable costs per unit:

Direct materials                                  $23

Direct labor                                            15

Variable manufacturing overhead        3

Variable selling and administrative       3

Fixed costs per year:

Fixed manufacturing overhead      $1,160,000

Fixed selling and administrative     $ 640,000

The company sold 40,000 units in the East region and 14,000 units in the West region. It determined that $320,000 of its fixed selling and administrative expense is traceable to the West region, $270,000 is traceable to the East region, and the remaining $50,000 is a common fixed expense. The company will continue to incur the total amount of its fixed manufacturing overhead costs as long as it continues to produce any amount of its only product.

Answer:

Diego Company

Difference = $170,000 - (72,000)

= $242,000

Explanation:

a)Data and Calculations:

Selling price = $76 per unit

Units sold = 54,000

Units produced = 58,000

Direct materials                                  $23

Direct labor                                            15

Variable manufacturing overhead        3

Variable selling and administrative       3

Variable costs per unit:                     $44

Fixed costs per year:

Fixed manufacturing overhead      $1,160,000

Fixed selling and administrative     $ 640,000

Cost of Production:

Under variable costing:

Variable cost per unit X Units produced

= $44 * 58,000 = $2,552,000

Cost of goods sold = $44 * 54,000 = $2,376,000

Cost of Ending Inventory = $44 * 4,000 = $176,000

Under Absorption costing:

(Variable manufacturing costs * Units produced) + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= $41 * 58,000 + $1,160,000

= $3,538,000

Product Cost per unit = $3,538,000/58,000 = $61

Cost of goods sold = $61 * 54,000 = $3,294,000

Ending Inventory = $61 * 4,000 = $244,000

Sales Revenue = $76 * 54,000 = $4,104,000

Income Statement         Under Variable    Under Absorption

Sales Revenue                  $4,104,000           $4,104,000

Cost of goods sold             2,376,000            3,294,000

Gross profit                       $1,728,000              $810,000

Fixed costs:

Manufacturing overhead $1,160,000

Selling and administrative   640,000             $640,000

Total fixed costs              $1,800,000             $640,000

Como podemos definir la Maquila.

Una maquila es una empresa manufacturera que importa materia prima sin aranceles de un país determinado, la transforma en producto terminado, y luego vende ese producto terminado en el país de donde importó la materia prima en primer lugar.

Frente a la competencia en el mercado, cuales son los objetivos que persiguen las empresas multinacionales con la creación del sistema de maquilas en la producción de bienes?

Las multinacionales persiguen abaratar costos con las maquilas. En un entorno competitivo, tener unos costos de producción más bajos es una de las mejores estrategias corporativas ya que esto genera precios más bajos.

Por qué la maquila se convierte en un factor que favorece la capacidad de competencia de las empresas multinacionales en el mercado.

Porque les permite producir bienes a precios más bajos.

Qué ventajas brinda el fenómeno maquilador a los consumidores finales de los bienes.

Los consumidores se benefician de poder comprar productos más baratos, lo que significa que su ingreso rinde más.

Cuales empresas salen perjudicadas en el mercado municipal, por la competencia de la maquila controlada por las multinacionales y las familias ricas de la economía nacional y Por Qué. ​

Las empresas que salen perjudicadas son aquellas que no pueden competir con los bajos costos y las economías de escala de las compañías multinacionales que tienen maquilas, y que por ésta razón, terminan ofreciendo productos más costosos, lo que repercute de forma negativa en su nivel de ventas.

Speicher sells sports shoes and formal shoes. Sports shoes sell for $110 each and cost $50 in variable expenses to make. Formal shoes sell for $220 and cost $100 in variable expenses to make. Speicher’s fixed expenses are $50,000. If 35% of his revenues are from sports shoes, what is Speicher’s weighted average contribution margin ratio? Provide your answer in decimal form (i.e. 65.2% = 0.652) and to three decimal places. Do not round intermediary calculations.

Answers

Answer:

weighted contribution margin ratio = 0.545

Explanation:

contribution margin of sport shoes = $110 - $50 = $60

contribution margin ratio of sport shoes = $60 / $110 = 0.545454

contribution margin of formal shoes = $220 - $100 = $120

contribution margin ratio of sport shoes = $120 / $220 = 0.545454

35% of total revenues come from sport shoes

weighted contribution margin ratio (it is the same for both products) = 0.545454 = 0.545

Which of the following policies would help achieve this goal? Check all that apply. Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively Establishing government-run employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies Increasing the benefits offered to unemployed workers through the government's unemployment insurance program

Answers

Answer:

decrease

increase

structural unemployment

Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively

Establishing government-run employment agencies to connect unemployed workers to job vacancies

Explanation:

If the world price of steel falls, the profits that can be earned from producing steel would fall. This would make steel-producing firms cutback on production. If they do this, they would lead less labour, so the demand for labour would fall.

The decrease in the price of steel would make purchasing steel by automobile companies cheaper. This would lead to a rise in production and as a result an increase in the demand for labour.

Structural unemployment occurs when there is a mismatch between the skills of labour and the jobs available.  Measures taken to increase information on available jobs would reduce this type of unemployment

What is income?

Income is defined as the consumption and saving opportunity achieved by a commodity within a nominal time structure, which is commonly represented in monetary words. Income is challenging to describe conceptually, and the explanation may be further across areas.

Computation of change in income:

According to the given information,

Regular price = $5.

Discount Rate=40%

Then sales price would be:

[tex]\text{Sale Price}= \text{Regular Price}(1- \text{Discount Rate})\\\\\text{Sale Price}=\$5 \text (1 - 0.40)\\\\\text{Sale Price}= \$3[/tex]

Then the incremental cost is:

[tex]\text{Incremental Cost}=\dfrac{ \text{Variable Cost}}{\text{Units Produced}}\\\\ \text{Incremental Cost}=\dfrac{\$750,000}{\$300,000}\\\\ \text{Incremental Cost}=2.5[/tex]

Increase in income per unit:

[tex]\text{Increase In Income}=\text{Sales Price}- \text{Incremental Cost}\\\\\text{Increase In Income}=\$3-\$2.5\\\\\text{Increase In Income}=0.50[/tex]  

Therefore, the increase in income is :

[tex]=\text{Per unit Increase In Income}\times\text{Total Units}\\\\=0.50\times60,000\\\\=\$30,000[/tex]
