You have been promoted to the Chief Procurement Officer (CPO) position within your organziation. The Chief Operations Officer wants to add a requirement to all contracts involving vehicle-related acquisition (transportation services, vehicle purchase, etc.) requiring the installation of a monitoring system. The system would provide information on vehicle speed and location, among other data. You have reservations, and know that, in the same way having a second set of eyes proofread a paper is helpful, another person can provide affirming or corrective perspective. Also, having an ally to support your views in a meeting offers valuable credibility beyond your interpretation of facts and data. The Chief Risk Officer (CRO) shares some of your concerns, which may include:
a. Information collection is boring.
b. No one will monitor the data collected.
c. Both "a" and "b" are correct.
d. As a company, your risk of being sued is increased, and data could be used to support a claim against you if there is an accident, critical materials shipment delay, or other conflict.

Litton Company estimates that the factory overhead for the following year will be $1,250,000. The company has decided that the basis for applying factory overhead should be machine hours, which is estimated to be 40,000 hours. The machine hours for the month of April for all of the jobs were 4,780. If the actual factory overhead totaled $141,800, determine the over- or underapplied amount for the month.
Answer:
Overapplied overhead= $7,575
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 1,250,000 / 40,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $31.25 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 31.25*4,780
Allocated MOH= $149,375
Finally, the over/under allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 141,800 - 149,375
Overapplied overhead= $7,575

A privately owned summer camp for youngsters has the following data for a 12-week session: Charge per camper Fixed costs Variable cost per camper Capacity $480 per week $192,000 per session $320 per week 200campers (a) Develop the mathematical relationships for total cost and total revenue. (b) What is the total number of campers that will allow the camp to just break even
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $192,000
Unitary variable cost= $320 per week
Selling price per unit= $480 per week
To calculate the total cost, we need to use the following formula:
Total cost= fixed costs + unitary variable cost*number of units
Total cost= 192,000 + 320*number of weeks
Now, the total revenue:
Total revenue= selling price per week*Number of weeks
Total revenue= 480*x
Finally, the break-even point in units:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 192,000 / (480 - 320)
Break-even point in units= 1,200 campers
Leslie's Unique Clothing Stores offers a common stock that pays an annual dividend of $3.00 a share. The company has promised to maintain a constant dividend. How much are you willing to pay for one share of this stock if you want to earn a return of 15.80 percent on your equity investments
Answer:
You are willing to pay $18.99 for one share of this stock.
Explanation:
This can be calculated using the following formula:
P = d / r .............................. (1)
Where;
P = price per share = ?
d = annual dividend per share = $3.00
r = equity investments return = 15.80%, or 0.1580
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
P = $3.00 / 0.1580
P = $18.99
Therefore, you willing to pay $18.99 for one share of this stock.

Problem 8-15 Nonconstant Growth [LO1] Metallica Bearings, Inc., is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next nine years because the firm needs to plow back its earnings to fuel growth. The company will pay a dividend of $15 per share 10 years from today and will increase the dividend by 6 percent per year thereafter. If the required return on this stock is 12 percent, what is the current share price
Answer:
$84.14
Explanation:
P9 = Nest dividend (D10) / Required rate (r) - Growth rate (g)
P9 = $14 / 12% - 6%
P9 = $14 / 0.06
P9 = $233.33
P0 = P9 / (1+Required rate of return)^9
P0 = $233.33/(1+0.12)^9
P0 = $233.33/2.7731
P0 = $84.1404926
P0 = $84.14
So, the current share price is $84.14

Explanation:
Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is a measure of the total market value of all finished goods and services made within a country during a specific period.
Simply stated, GDP is a measure of the total income of all individuals in an economy and the total expenses incurred on the economy's output of goods and services in a particular country.
Basically, the four (4) major expenditure categories of GDP are consumption (C), investment (I), government purchases (G), and net exports (N).
The various factors that have an effect on the GDP of a country's economy are;
1. The Interest Rate Effect: As prices rise, the cost for businesses to finance new equipment increases, causing a drop in quantity demanded of real GDP.
2. The Wealth Effect: The purchasing power of money held in savings accounts falls as prices rise.
3. The Export Effect: As prices rise in the United States, foreigners purchase fewer U.S. goods.

When adjusting accrual earnings to obtain cash flows from operations, A. an increase in Accounts Payable is added to determine cash flow from operations. B. it is not necessary to consider any changes to Accounts Payable. C. an increase in Accounts Payable is deducted to determine cash flows from operations. D. a decrease in Accounts Payable is added to determine cash flow from operations.
Answer: A. an increase in Accounts Payable is added to determine cash flow from operations.
Explanation:
We should note that accounts payable refer to the amounts that the company pays to its suppliers, therefore the sum of the the total amount that's owed to the suppliers will be shown on the balance sheet of the company as accounts payable.
Therefore, when adjusting accrual earnings to obtain cash flows from operations, an increase in accounts payable is added to determine cash flow from operations.

"Coffee Klatch is an espresso stand in a downton office building. The average selling price of a cup of coffee is $1.49 and the avergage variable expense per cup is $0.36. The avergage fixed expense per month is $1,300. How many cups of coffee would have to be sold to attain target profits of $2,500 per month?"
Answer:
3363 cups of coffee
Explanation:
Given that the average selling price of a cup of coffee is $1.49 and the avergage variable expense per cup is $0.36 and average fixed expense per month is $1,300
The target profit is the difference between the total selling price and the total cost.
Let the number of units to be sold to make a target profits of $2,500 be T
The total cost will be
= 0.36T + 1300
The total sales
= 1.49T
Hence
1.49T - 0.36T - 1300 = 2500
1.13T = 2500 + 1300
1.13T = 3800
T = 3800/1.13
= 3362.83
Hence the company must sell about 3363 cups of coffee to make the target profit
Diz Co. is a U.S.-based MNC with net cash inflows of euros and net cash inflows of Swiss francs. These two currencies are highly correlated in their movements against the dollar. Yanta Co. is a U.S.-based MNC that has the same level of net cash flows in these currencies as Diz Co. except that its euros represent net cash outflows. Yanta Co has a higher exposure to exchange rate risk than Diz Co.
Required:
Which firm has a higher exposure to exchange rate risk? Why?
Answer:
Yanta Co. has a higher exposure to exchange rate risk than Diz Co.
The reason is that Yanta Co. does not have net inflows of euros. Instead, its euro transactions yield net outflows.
It will always be in need of euros to settle its foreign debts or obligations, unlike Diz Co. with foreign assets.
Explanation:
a) Data and Analysis:
Diz Co. has net cash inflows of euros and net cash inflows of swiss francs
Yanta Co. has net cash outflows of euros and net cash inflows of swiss francs
b) Exposure to exchange rate risk or currency risk is the financial risk arising from fluctuations in the value of the US dollars against the Euro or Swiss Francs in which Diz Co. has some foreign assets while Yanta Co. has foreign obligations.
Information concerning a product produced by Ender Company appears here: Sales price per unit $ 164 Variable cost per unit $ 94 Total annual fixed manufacturing and operating costs $ 434,000 Required Determine the following: Contribution margin per unit. Number of units that Ender must sell to break even. Sales level in units that Ender must reach to earn a profit of $182,000. Determine the margin of safety in units, sales dollars, and as a percentage.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the unitary contribution margin, we need to use the following formula:
Contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
Contribution margin= 164 - 94
Contribution margin= $70
Now, to determine the break-even point in units and sales dollars, we need to use the following formulas:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 434,000 / 70
Break-even point in units= 6,200
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 434,000 / (70 / 164)
Break-even point (dollars)= $1,016,800
The desired profit is $182,000:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (434,000 + 182,000) / 70
Break-even point in units= 8,800
Finally, the margin of safety in units, sales dollars, and as a percentage:
Margin of safety (units)= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety (units)= 8,800 - 6,200
Margin of safety (units)= 2,600
Margin of safety (dollars)= (8,800*164) - 1,016,800
Margin of safety (dollars)= $426,400
Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level
Margin of safety ratio= 426,400 / 1,443,200
Margin of safety ratio= 0.295

Part 4.
Orion Iron Corp.
Income Statement
FIFO LIFO Weighted Average
Sales (960 x $42) $40,320 $40,320 $40,320
Less Cost of Sales ($12,220) ($13,620) ($12,864)
Gross Profit $28,100 $26,700 $27,456
Less Expenses
Operating Expenses ($18,000) ($18,000) ($18,000)
Net Income $10,100 $8,700 $9,456
Part 6.
Weighted Average method minimizes Income taxes as it provides lowest profits than the rest of the methods.
Explanation:
Periodic Inventory method ensures that Cost of Sales and Inventory Value are determined at the end of the period.
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = Beginning Inventory + Purchases
therefore,
Number = 350 + 950 + 700 = 2,000 units
Cost = 350 x $14 + 950 x $12 + 700 x $15 = $26,800
Units in Ending Inventory = Units available for sale - Units sold
therefore,
Units in Ending Inventory = 2,000 - ( 350 + 610 ) = 1,040
FIFO
This method assumes that the units to arrive first, will be sold first.
Ending Inventory = 340 x $12 + 700 x $15 = $14,580
Cost of Goods Sold = 350 x $14 + 610 x $12 = $12,220
LIFO
This method assumes that the units to arrive last, will be sold first.
Ending Inventory = 690 x $12 + 350 x $14 = $13,180
Cost of Goods Sold = 700 x $15 + 260 x $12 = $13,620
Weighted Average Cost
This method calculates a new unit cost based on units available for sale after each and every purchase. This unit cost is then used to determine the cost of sales and inventory value.
Unit Cost = Total Cost ÷ Units available for sale
= $26,800 ÷ 2,000 units
= $13.40
Ending Inventory = Units in Inventory x Unit Cost
= 1,040 x $13.40
= $13,936
Cost of Goods Sold = Units Sold x Unit Cost

A physical count of merchandise inventory (rounded to whole dollar) on June 30 reveals that there are 180 units on hand. The inventory method which results in the highest gross profit for June is:_______.
a. the FIFO method.
b. the LIFO method.
c. the average cost method.
d. not determinable.
Answer:
c. the average cost method.
Explanation:
Windsor INC. purchased inventory during the month of June as follows:
June 1 129 units at $890
June 10 172 units at $1340
June 15 172 units at $1440
June 28 129 units at $ 1140
and at the end of the period, there are 180 units on hand.
In order to get highest gross profit the closing sock should be the highest, accordingly the value of inventory at hand should as as follows under different method explain below:
Under FIFO method the inventory first enter into the enterprise is available for sale at first so the inventory of 180 units at end should be values at the last price mentioned in the question i.e $1140, therefore the value amounts to $1140*180 units=$205200
Under LIFO method, likewise the last entered inventory will be available for sale and the inventory at the end of period will be valued at the price at which the inventory first bought i.e $890, therefore the value amounts to 180 units*$890=$160200
Under Average cost method the effect of differential price is distributed over the quantity bough during a period so that the company remains in ineffective condition during the period from the price change
Average cost per unit= (129*$890 +172*$1340+ 172*$1440+129*$1140)/602 units
=$1229.29
and for the 180 units the value amounts to 180*$122.29=$221271.429
so, as per explanation given above, it is certain that the highest value will be in average cost method.
The correct option is - c. the average cost method.
Consider the assembly line of a laptop computer. The line consists of 9 stations and operates at a cycle time of 2.50 minutes/unit. Their most error-prone operation is step 3. There is no inventory between the stations, because this is a machine-paced line. Final inspection happens at station 9.
Required:
What would be the information turnaround time for a defect made at station 2?
Answer:
17.5minutes
Explanation:
Calculation to determine would be the information turnaround time for a defect made at station 2
Station 2 information turnaround time=[(Station 9-Station 2)*2.50 minutes/unit]
Station 2 information turnaround time=7x 2.50
Station 2 information turnaround time=17.5minutes
Therefore the information turnaround time for a defect made at station 2 is 17.5minutes

Statute of frauds is used as a defense to a lawsuit and not as an offense. For example, S owns a lot that B wishes to purchase. They enter into a verbal contract whereby B will deliver $6,000 at noon on Friday to S, and S will provide B with the deed to the property. If either party breaches the contract for the sale of the real estate lot and is sued by the other party, the defendant may raise statute of frauds as a defense, saying that there is nothing in writing or signed by the defendant.
Required:
What is the result?
Answer:
Since both parties can breach the contract without fearing any penalty as a result of doing it, its execution will depend on the good will of both parties. It will also require a coordinated action where B hands out the money at the same time they are receiving the deed. If both things do not occur simultaneously, for example, S promises to deliver the deed the next day or B promises to pay the next day, they will not do it. For example, B pays the $5,000 and S decides to increase the price to $10,000. Or S gives the deed and B says that the agreed price was $1,000.

During the annual Black Friday Sale, The OLX sold a pair of ski boots, regularly priced at $245.00, at a discount of 40%. The boots cost $96.00 and expenses are 26% of the regular selling price. For how much were the ski boots sold?
Answer: $147
Explanation:
First find what 40% of $245.00 is:
= 40% * 245
= $98.00
The boots are sold at a discount of 40%. This means that 40% - which is $98 - was deducted from the value.
The selling price is therefore:
= 245 - 98
= $147
Main Street Ice Cream Company uses a plant-wide allocation method to allocate overhead based on direct labor-hours at a rate of $2 per labor-hour.
Strawberry and vanilla flavors are produced in Department SV.
Chocolate is produced in Department C.
Sven manages Department SV and Charlene manages Department C. The product costs (per 1,000 gallons) follow:
Strawberry Vanilla Chocolate
Direct labor $755 $830 $1,130
Raw materials 805 505 605
Required:
a) If the number of hours of labor per 1,000 gallons is 56 for strawberry, 66 for vanilla and 100 for chocolate, compute the total cost of 1,000 gallons of each flavor using plant-wide allocation.
Total Cost
Strawberry
Vanilla
Chocolate
b) Charlene's department uses older, outdated machines. She believes that her department is being allocated some of the overhead of Department SV, which recently bought state-of- the-art machines.
After she requested that overhead costs be broken down by department, the following information was discovered:
Department SV Department C
Overhead $75,750 $14,274
Machine-hours 25,250 36,500
Labor-hours 25,250 18,300
Using machine-hours as the department allocation base for Department SV and labor-hours as the department allocation base for Department C, compute the allocation rate for each.
(Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Allocation Rate
Department SV per machine hour
Department C per labor hour
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
A) Predetermined overhead rate= $2 per direct labor hour
The product costs (per 1,000 gallons) follow:
Strawberry Vanilla Chocolate
Direct labor $755 $830 $1,130
Raw materials $805 $505 $605
Direct labor hours:
56 for strawberry
66 for vanilla
100 for chocolate
We can calculate the total cost for 1,000 gallons for each flavor:
Strawberry:
Total cost= 755 + 805 + 56*2
Total cost= $1,672
Vanilla:
Total cost= 830 + 505 + 66*2
Total cost= $1,467
Chocolate:
Total cost= 1,130 + 605 + 100*2
Total cost= $1,935
b) To calculate the activities rates, we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Department SV:
Activity rate= 75,570 / 25,250= $3 per machine hour
Department C:
Activity rate= 14,274 / 18,300= $0.78 per direct labor hour
