A large global automobile manufacturer is considering outsourcing the manufacturing of a solenoid used in the transmission of its SUVs. The company estimates that annual fixed costs of manufacturing the part in-house, which include equipment, maintenance, and manage-ment, amounts to $6 million. The variable costs of labor and material are $5.00 per unit. The company has an offer from a major subcontractor to produce the part for $8.00 per unit. However, the subcontractor wants the company to share in the costs of the equipment. The automobile company estimates that the total cost would be $4 million, which also includes management oversight for the new supply contact

Required:
a. How many solenoids would the automobile company need per year to make theâ in-house option leastâcostly?
b. What otherâ factors, besidesâ costs, should the automobile company consider before revising its supply chain forâ SUVs?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) The company must consume more than 666667 solenoids per year to make the in-house option least costly.

B) - quality of the product

- prompt delivery of products

- good communication & relationship with external parties.

Explanation:

A) Since if they use a subcontractor, they will share part of the equipment cost, Let the cross over point for manufacturing the solenoid in house and using a contractor be denoted as x.

Now, variable costs of labor and material are $5.00 per unit. This is 5x

Also from the subcontractor, production of the part is estimated at $8.00 per unit. This is 8x.

Thus;

6000000 + 5x = 4000000 + 8x

Rearranging, we have;

6000000 - 4000000 = 8x - 5x

3x = 2000000

x = 2000000/3

x ≈ 666667

Thus, the company must consume more than 666667 solenoids per year to make the in-house option least costly.

B) Apart from cost, other factors the company must consider are quality of the product, prompt delivery of products, good communication & relationship with stakeholders involved.

On April 1, 2020, Kyle took a job as a full-time software engineer with one of his former clients, Hoogle Inc. From April through the end of the year, Kyle earned $196,000 in salary. What amount of FICA taxes (self-employment and employment related) does Kyle owe for the year

Answers

Answer:

$18,943.40

Explanation:

FICA taxes when Kyle was self employed = $76,000 x 15.3% = $11,628

Social security taxes while employed = ($137,700 - $76,000) x 6.2% = $3,825.40

Medicare taxes while employed = [($200,000 - $76,000) x 1.45%] + [($196,000 + $76,000 - $200,000) x 2.35%] = $1,798 + $1,692 = $3,490

Total FICA taxes = $18,943.40

Since EBIT is not necessarily indicative of cash flow, many financial analysts adjust the formulation by: a. adding unpaid taxes to EBIT in the TIE formula b. adding unpaid taxes and interest to EBIT in the formula c. adding depreciation to EBIT in the TIE formula d. adding unpaid taxes, interest and depreciation to EBIT in the TIE formula

Answers

Answer: c. adding depreciation to EBIT in the TIE formula

Explanation:

The Times Interest Earned Ratio is used to measure the ease by which a company can pay its interest charges using its earnings before tax.

As depreciation is a non-cash expense, the amount apportioned to depreciation can be used when paying for interest so adding it back to the EBIT ensures that the cash resources of the company are included in the analysis of whether a company can pay back debt.

So, the amount of cash Sheffield received from Pharoah at the time of the assignment was $1,317,120

A standard measure of leverage is the debt/equity ratio. According to conventional wisdom among financial analysts, a high debt/equity ratio indicates a high risk of insolvency or ultimate bankruptcy; conversely, a low debt/equity ratio indicates that the company is relatively solvent and able to meet its long-term obligations. Please see PowerPoints 59 and 60 in chapter 3 (copied below). In the case of Apple, their debt/equity ratio actually increased from 2002 to 2020. In other words, Apple carries more debt today relative to its equity than it did in 2002. However, very few people would argue that Apple is a riskier company today than in 2002. Please make an argument, supported by data, for why Apple is at least as solvent today as it was in 2002, despite its much higher debt/equity ratio. The argument should not just be supported by data, but you also need to provide either an additional keen insight (addressed to an accounting/finance professional) or do an excellent job explaining the concept to an audience member who is not an accounting/finance professional.
To whom did you address the answer above, to a professional or non-professional?

Answers

Answer:

There are three main reasons why Apple is a less risky company in 2020 than it was in 2020:

Apple is sitting on an enormous amount of cash. Apple has over 39 billion in cash, which is a very good amount to meet interest payments and dividend payments, making it very unlikely for the company to become unsolvent in the near future.Apple has a very high market capitalization, which is the total monetary value of the company stock. In fact, Apple is the number one company in the world by market capitalization, with 2.0 trillion dollars of market cap.The value of the stock of Apple has gone up substantially since 2002, sitting currently at 121 USD per share. This represents public confidence in the company from investors, and since Apple has good fundamentals, it is unlikely that the price of the stock will go down substantially in the near future.

Jenny, who is married and the mother of three, is 25 years old and expects to work until 70. She earns $45,000 per year. Jenny expects inflation to be 3% over her working life, and the appropriate risk-free discount rate is 5%. Her personal consumption is equal to 25% of her after-tax earnings, and her combined federal and state marginal tax bracket is 15%. What is the amount of life insurance necessary for Jenny using the Human Life Value method

Answers

Answer:

$855,903.20

Explanation:

Real discounting rate=> i= [i'-f]/[1+f]. Where i is the real interest rate. i' is the nominal interest rate which is given as 5% and f is the rate of inflation

i = (5%-3%)/1+3%)

i = 2/1.3

i = 1.94%

Her after tax earnings = 45,000*(1-0.15) = $38,250

Personal consumption = 25% of this, 38,250*0.75 = $28,688.

We are discounting her earnings back 45 years at 1.94%. The equation will be: 28,688 * {1-(1+0.01940)^-45} / {0.01940}

= 28,688 * {1 - 0.42120322099] / 0.01940

= 28,688 * 29.83488551597938

= 855903.1956824165

= $855,903.20

So, the amount of life insurance necessary for Jenny using the Human Life Value method is $855,903.20

Required: Compute basic and diluted earnings per share for 2021. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Basic EPS = [$270,000 - (6% * $100 * 6,000)] / [100,000 + 40,000 * 3/12]

Basic EPS = [$270,000 - $36,000] / 35,000

Basic EPS = $234,000 / 35,000

Basic EPS = 6.685714285714286

Basic EPS = 6.69

Diluted EPS = [$270,000 + ($420,00*8%*60%)] / [100000 + 40,000 * 3/12 + (420*30) + (6,000*3)]

Diluted EPS = [$270,000 + $2,016] / [35,000 + 12600 + 18,000]

Diluted EPS = $272,016 / 65,600

b. private industry has strong financial incentives to produce efficiently.
c. mixed economies like the United States usually have a more equal distribution of income.
d. inflation is always low in a mixed economy.

Answers

Answer:

a. corruption is less likely when economic power is more diffused. b. private industry has strong financial incentives to produce efficiently.

Explanation:

Venezuela is a planned / command economy which means that the government directs production of goods and services in the country. This can lead to corruption as those in government would become quite powerful and engage in activities that would make them richer at the expense of the nation because they will have the required access to do so.

As the government directs most things, there is less private industry and competition. With a lack of competition, companies will not see the need to compete and would end up being inefficient.

These are what happened in Venezuela.

RideShare offers short-term rentals of vehicles that are kept in small lots in urban neighborhoods with plenty of potential customers. With one lot, it has six cars. The interarrival time of potential demand for this lot from its base of customers is 20 minutes. The average rental period is 4 hours. If a customer checks availability of vehicles in this lot online and finds that they are all rented for the desired time, the customer skips renting and finds alternative arrangements. However, because customers pay a monthly fee to subscribe to this service, RideShare does not want customers to be disappointed too often.

Required:
a. What is the offered load?
b. What is the implied utilization?
c. What is the capacity of the process (rentals per hour)?
d. What is the probability that all eight cars are rented at the same time?

Answers

Answer:

a. Offered load = 1 lot / 4 hours = 6 cars/4 hours = 1.5 cars/hours

b. Demand rate = Total cars per 4 hours/20 minutes time

Demand rate = 6*4 / 20

Demand rate = 24/20

Demand rate = 1.2 cars/hours

Implied utilization = Demand rate / Offered load

Implied utilization = 1.2/1.5

Implied utilization = 0.8

Implied utilization = 80%

c. Capacity of the process = 1 lot / 5 hours

Capacity of the process = 6 / 5

Capacity of the process = 1.2 rentals per hours

d. Probability that all eight cars are rented at the same time

=> (1 - 0.8) * (0.8)^8

=> 0.2 * 0.1678

=> 0.03356

=> 3.36

The rational rule of consumption is to consume more today if the: marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future. price of consumption today exceeds the dollar-plus-interest in the future. marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is less than the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future. real interest rate in the future is expected to be higher than the real interest rate today.

Answers

Answer:

marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future.

Explanation:

A rational consumer should consume more today when the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is greater than (or equal to) the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future.

A rational consumer should continue to consume up until the point where the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is equal to the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future

If the marginal benefit of a dollar of consumption today is less than the marginal benefit of spending a dollar plus interest in the future, a rational consumer should postpone consumption until the future.

A company purchased a new pizza oven for $12,676. It will work for 5 years and has no salvage value. The tax rate is 41%, and annual revenues are constant at $7,192. For financial reporting, the straight-line depreciation method is used, but for tax purposes depreciation is 35% of original cost in years 1 and 2 and the remaining 30% in Year 3. For this question ignore all expenses other than depreciation. What is the tax payable for year one?
A. $2,535 $3,169
B. $4,657 $2,748
C. $2,748 $2,535

Answers

Answer:

straight line depreciation rate = $12,676 / 5 = $2,535.20

financial reporting income = $7,192 - $2,535.20 = $4,657 x 41% = $1,909

Accelerated depreciation = $12,676 x 35% = $4,437

taxable income = $7,192 - $4,437 = $2,755 x 41% = $1,130

tax expense for year 1 = $1,130

deferred tax liability for year 1 = $1,909 - $1,130 = $779

financial reporting income = $4,657

taxable income = $2,755

Answers

Answer:

task performance and group maintenance.

Explanation:

Leadership can be defined as a process which typically involves motivating, encouraging and inspiring employees working under an individual to be innovative and create positive changes that will foster growth and enhance the success of a business firm or company in the future.

This ultimately implies that, beyond an individual possessing the traits or qualities of a leader, leadership in itself is a process that revolves around the activities or happenings between the leader and those who he or she is leading, which are the followers. Thus, leadership is simply a continuous process and it's transactional in nature because it occurs between a leader and the followers.

A leader can be defined as an individual who is saddled with the responsibility of controlling, managing and maintaining a group of people under him or her.

Some types of power expressed by leaders are referent power, coercive power, etc.

Hence, two important group outcomes or consequences of the interactive process that unfolds between a leader, follower, and the situation include task performance and group maintenance.

Leaders are saddled with the responsibility of ensuring that the follower performs his or her duties or tasks as stated in the contract and to foster cohesion among the various team members.

= $2,180,000/125,000

= $17.44 per direct labor hour

Now Assignment of Overheads

As Deluxe model required 2,500 direct labor hours

So, Deluxe model = 2,500 × $17.44

Penn Company uses a periodic inventory system. At the end of the annual accounting period, December 31 of the current year, the accounting records provided the following information for product 1: Units Unit Cost Inventory, December 31, prior year 2,000 $ 5 For the current year: Purchase, March 21 5,000 6 Purchase, August 1 3,000 8 Inventory, December 31, current year 4,000 Required: Compute ending inventory and cost of goods sold for the current year under FIFO, LIFO, and average cost inventory costing methods.

Answers

Answer:

Total unit sold = Opening balance + Purhase in march + Purchase in August - Closing balance

Total unit sold = 2000 + 5000 +3000 - 4000

Total unit sold = 6000 units

1. FIFO method:

So total cost of goods sold is (2000*$5) + (4000*$6)= $34,000

Ending inventory value is (1000*$6) + (3000*$8) = $30,000

2. LIFO method:

So total value of goods sold is (3000*$8) + (3000*$6) = $42,000

Ending inventory value is (2000*6) + (2000*$5) = $22,000

3. Average cost of inventory:

Opening inventory (2000* $5) + Purchase on Mar.21 (5000*$6) + Purchase on August 1 (3000*$8) = $64,000

Total units = 2000 + 5000 + 3000

Total units = 10,000

Average cost is $64,000/10,000 (units) = $6.40 per unit

So, Cost of goods sold is 6000*$6.40 = $38,400

Ending Inventory value is 4000*$6.40 = $25,600

Hyu Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on the estimated labor-hours for the upcoming year. At the beginning of the most recently completed year, the company estimated the labor-hours for the upcoming year at 52,400 labor-hours. The estimated variable manufacturing overhead was $2.82 per labor-hour and the estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead was $1,196,840. The actual labor-hours for the year turned out to be 53,000 labor-hours. The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year was closest to:

Answers

Answer:

The predetermined overhead rate for the recently completed year would be $25.66

Explanation:

The predetermined overhead rate is computed as;

= Total estimated manufacturing overhead / estimated direct labor

Where;

Total estimated manufacturing overhead = Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead + estimated variable manufacturing overhead rate × estimated labor hours

= $1,196,840 + $2.82 × 52,400

= $1,196,840 + $147,768

= $1,344,608

Therefore,

Predetermined rate = $1,344,608 / 52,400 hours

Predetermined rate = $25.66

Answers

Answer: ($4000)

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the amount that must be added back to taxable income (loss) in calculating their net operating loss, will be:

Dividend income = $16000

Add: Interest income = $14000

Add: Business capital gain = $2000

Less: Business loss = $10000

Less: Itemized deduction = $26000

Taxable loss = ($16000 + $14000 + $2000) - ($10000 + $26000)

= $32000 - $36000

= - $4000
