Answer:
As the ice melts and turns into water, the level of the liquid water will lower and it will no longer be perfectly leveled with the rim of the glass. This happens because water has a unique property, its solid state occupies a larger volume than its liquid state, i.e. as waters turns into ice, it expands and occupies more space. Generally, as liquids become solid, they will shrink and occupy less space, but that doesn't happen with water.
Explanation:
7. A fast-food chain plans to expand by opening several new restaurants. The chain operates two types of
restaurants, drive-through and full-service. A drive-through restaurant costs RM 100.000 to construct,
requires 5 employees, and has an expected annual revenue of RM 200.000. A full service restaurant
costs RM 150.000 to construct, requires 15 employees, and has an expected annual revenue of RM
500,000. The chain has RM 2,400,000 in capital available for expansion. Labor contracts require that
they hire no more than 210 employees, and licensing restrictions require that they open no more than
20 new restaurants.
(a) How many restaurants of each type should the chain open in order to maximize the expected
revenue? [1 point)
≤
Explanation:
Drive through Full Service
Annual revenue 200,000 500,000
Cost 100,000 150,000
Income 100,000 350,000
Employee 5 15
Income / employee 20,000 23,333.33
Using simultaneous equation ,
Let X represent the drive through service ,and Y represent the full service restaurant
Budget = 100,000x + 150,000y ≤ 2,400,000 (equation 1)
Employer = 5x + 15y ≤ 210 (equation 2)
(Divide equation 1 by 10 ,000)
10x+ 15y ≤ 240 (equation 3)
Using elimination method, multiply equation 2 by -2
10x +15y ≤240
-10x - 30y ≤-420
-15y ≤ -180
y≤ -180/-15
y = 12
substitute y = 12 in equation 3
10x + 15y≤240
10x +180 ≤240
10x≤240-180
10x≤60
x≤6
12 1,800,000 180
6 600,000 30
6 drive through services and 12 full services should be opened.
6 Drive through 12 full service 20
Cost 600,000 1,800,000 2,400,000
Employees 30 180
Net income 600,000 4,200,000
Westchester Corp. is considering two equally risky, mutually exclusive projects, both of which have normal cash flows. Project A has an IRR of 11%, while Project B's IRR is 14%. When the WACC is 8%, the projects have the same NPV. Given this information, which of the following statements is CORRECT?a. If the WACC is 9%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. b. If the WACC is greater than 14%, Project A's IRR will exceed Project B's. c. If the WACC is 13%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's. e. If the WACC is 6%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.
Answer:
d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the return in which the NPV is zero i.e cash inflows equal to the initial investment
While the WACC refers to the cost of capital by considering the capital structure i.e cost of equity, cost of preferred stock and cost of debt by taking their weightage
Now if the WACC is 9% so project B NPV would be higher as compared to project A as we can see that project B IRR is greater than the project A IRR
Therefore option d is correct
A stock has an expected return of 12.6 percent, the risk-free rate is 7 percent, and the market risk premium is 10 percent. What must the beta of this stock be
Answer:
0.56
Explanation:
In this question we used the Capital Asset Pricing Model formula i.e shown below:
As we know that
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium
12.6% = 7% + Beta × 10%
12.6% - 7% = Beta × 10%
5.6% = Beta × 10%
So, the beta is
= 5.6% ÷ 10%
= 0.56
Hence, the beta of the stock is 0.56

#28 The Canadian subsidiary of a U.S. company reported cost of goods sold of 50,000 C$, for the current year ended December 31. The beginning inventory was 15,000 C$, and the ending inventory was 10,000 C$. Spot rates for various dates are as follows:
Date beginning inventory was acquired $1.08 = 1C$
Rate at beginning of the year $1.10 = 1C$
Weighted average rate for the year $1.12 = 1C$
Date ending inventory was acquired $1.13 = 1C$
Assuming the Canadian dollar is the functional currency of the Canadian subsidiary, the translated amount of cost of goods sold that should appear in the consolidated income statement is
Answer is C. $56,000
Answer:
$56,000
Explanation:
Data:
Cost of good sold (single) = $50,000
Weighted average rate of the year = $1.12
Cost of good sold consolidated = ???????
Solution:
In order to find the translated amount of cost of goods sold that should appear in the consolidated income statement, we will multiply the cost of goods sold given for Canadian subsidiary with the weighted average rate of the year.
Calculation:
Cost of good sold (consolidated) = $50,000 x $1.12
Cost of good sold (consolidated) = $56,000
Garcia Company has 10,400 units of its product that were produced last year at a total cost of $156,000. The units were damaged in a rainstorm because the warehouse where they were stored developed a leak in the roof. Garcia can sell the units as is for $3 each or it can repair the units at a total cost of $18,400 and then sell them for $7 each. Calculate the incremental net income if the units are repaired
Answer:
$23,200
Explanation:
Alternative 1 Alternative 2 Incremental
no repairs repair units revenue
sales revenue $31,200 $0 ($31,200)
repair costs $0 -$18,400 ($18,400)
revenue from $0 $72,800 $72,800
selling repaired units
total $23,200
Incremental revenues refer to the extra or additional revenues generated by a business activity or transaction. In this case, repairing and then selling the damaged units would increase income by $23,200.
A company purchased a commercial dishwasher by paying cash of $5,300. The dishwasher's fair value on the date of the purchase was $5,700. The company incurred $320 in transportation costs, $210 installation fees, and paid a $230 fine for illegal parking while the dishwasher was being delivered. For what amount will the company record the dishwasher
Answer:
$5,830
Explanation:
Relevant data provided
Cash paid = $5,300
Transportation cost = $320
Installation fees = $210
The computation of the amount that will record the dishwasher is shown below:-
Total cost = Cash paid + Transportation cost + Installation fees
= $5,300 + $320 + $210
= $5,830
Therefore for computing the total cost we simply applied the above formula and ignore all other values as they are not relevant.
