Year 1:
Preferred dividend per share = $300,000/10,000 = $30 per share
Year 2:
Preferred dividend per share = $100,000/10,000 = $10 per share
Year 1:
Earnings per share for common stock = $1,196,000/500,000 = $2.39 per share
Year 2:
Earnings per share for common stock = $1,506,500/500,000 = $3.01 per share
Net sales $18,750,000 ($15,000,000 * 1.25)
Less: Operating costs, except
depreciation and amortization 15,000,000 ($12,000,000 * 1.25)
Interest = 15% of $3,150,000 = $472,500
Taxes (40% * $2,677,500) = $1,071,000

5.17. When a known future cash outflow in a foreign currency is hedged by a company using aforward contract, there is no foreign exchange risk. When it is hedged using futures contracts, the daily settlement process does leave the company exposed to some risk. Explain the nature of this risk. In particular, consider whether the company is better off using a futures contract or a forward contract when:a)The value of the foreign currency falls rapidly during the life of the contract.b)The value of the foreign currency rises rapidly during the life of the contract.c)The value of the foreign currency first rises and then falls back to its initial value.d)The value of the foreign currency first falls and then rises back to its initial value. Assume that the forward price equals the futures price
Drussden Inc., a multinational corporation, has decided to hire military veterans. This, the company feels, would not only set a good example of a diverse workplace among its peers and customers, but also let it derive great benefits from this unique talent pool. In implementing this recruiting strategy, Drussden Inc. should expect:
a. an increase in expenses as the company will need to pay a much higher compensation to these employees.
b. to have a more rigid and harsh workplace environment than before.
c. to require sufficient time for training their HR personnel on how to appropriately interview these potential employees.
d. a significant decrease in its hiring-related costs
Answer:
c. to require sufficient time for training their HR personnel on how to appropriately interview these potential employees.
Explanation:
Most organizations lack a veteran recruiting program. There are several misconceptions about veterans working in private companies especially regarding their mental state. It is true that a percentage, about 10-20%, experience some type of PTSD, but it generally is not something permanent. Also, former military personnel are normal people that served their country. They have some skill sand some preparation that even though might be unrelated to a specific, might be very useful. For example, many companies hire veterans because they are adaptable, flexible, react well under pressure and tend to find solutions to problems. They didn't learn this in any school, instead they learned this on the battle field. Many veterans also have a lot of experience with solving problems and presenting clear information.
This doesn't mean that they will earn a higher salary, or that they will turn the office into a military headquarter. Many companies higher them for their flexibility and how well they adapt and react to change. The problem is that not enough companies actually have veteran recruiting programs that will help both the companies and the veterans.
Inventories: March 1 March 31 Raw material $18,000 $15,000 Work in process 9,000 6,000 Finished goods 27,000 36,000 Additional information for March: Raw material purchased $42,000 Direct labor payroll $30,000 Direct labor rate per hour $7.50 Overhead rate per direct labor hour $10.00 Refer to Crawford Enterprises. For March, conversion cost incurred was
Answer:
$118000
Explanation:
Calculation for conversion cost incurred
First step is to calculate the Prime Cost
Opening stock Of Raw Material $18000
Add: Material purchased $42000
Less: Closing stock of raw material ($15000)
Add: Direct Labour $30000
Prime Cost $75000
Now let calculate the conversion cost incurred
Prime cost $75000
Add: overhead expenses $40000
[($30000/ $7.50)**10]
( 4000 * $10=$40000)
Total $115000
($75000+$40000)
Add: opening work in progress $9000
Total $124000
($115000+$9000)
Less: Closing stock of work in progress ($6000)
Factory cost or conversion cost $118000
($124000-$6000)
Therefore For March, conversion cost incurred was $118,000
Sutherland Company listed the following data for 2019:
Budgoted factory overhead $2,100,000
Budgeted direct labor hours 89,000
Budgeted machine hours 51,000
Actual factory overhead 2,201,000
Actual direct labor hours 83,700
Actual machine hours 48,900
If overhead is applied based on machine hours, the overapplied/underapplied overhead is:__________ (round calculations to 2 significant digits)
a) $176,358 underapplied.
b) $176,358 overapplied.
c) $187,298 underapplied
d) $187.298 overapplied.
Answer:
c) $187,298 underapplied
Explanation:
The computation of the overhead or underapplied overhead is shown below:
But before that the predetermined overhead, applied manufacturing overhead need to be computed
Predetermine overhead rate is
= Estimated factory overhead ÷ estimated machine hours
= $2,100,000 ÷ 51,000
= $41.18
Now the applied overhead is
= Actual machine hours × predetermined overhead rate
= 48,900 × $41.18
= $2,013,702
As, applied overhead is less than actual overhead
So, the Underapplied overhead is
= $2,201,000 - $2,013,702
= $187,298
An investment offers $5,200 per year, with the first payment occurring one year from now. The required return is 7 percent. a. What would the value be today if the payments occurred for 20 years
Answer:
the present value of an annuity is $55,088.87
Explanation:
The computation of the value today is given below:
Present value of annuity is
= Annuity × [1 - (1+interest rate)^-time period] ÷ rate
= $5,200 × [1 - (1.07)^-20] ÷ 0.07
= $5,200 × 10.59401425
= $55,088.87
hence, the present value of an annuity is $55,088.87
Identifying various components that are at higher risks and standardizing it.
a. In Toyota's case it was certain parts across Japanese automakers which was considered as a risk for revenue and disruption of production.
b. Toyota is now sourcing of engines and transmissions in the locally.
c. Toyota brought out fix solutions to the affected vehicles which took mass media and online tools for its advantage and also teams to monitor quality issues.
Answer:
a. Certain parts acquired from Japanese automakers are at lesser risk because the components are standardized.
b. Sourcing engines and transmissions locally is at higher risk as the company has gone toward customization which involves risks and the product will not be standardized.
c. This involves less risk and standardized.
Explanation:
The standardized components will create lesser risk to the company. When the company goes towards customization then there will be risk involved in the components as the customers might not accept the customized components and standardized feature might be more appreciated by the customers.
You want to buy a new sports coupe for $91,500, and the finance office at the dealership has quoted you an APR of 7.3 percent for a 72 month loan to buy the car. a. What will your monthly payments be
Answer: $1573
Explanation:
The information given above can be processed further as follows:
Nper = 72
Rate = 7.3%/12 = 0.073/12 = 0.0060833 = 0.0061
PV = 91500
The formula to use will be:
= PV ÷ 1 - (1 - r)^-nper / r
= 91500 ÷ 1 - (1 0.0061)^-72 / 0.0061
= $1573
Therefore, monthly payments will be $1573

Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
GLUCOSE CONTROL COMPANY
Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015:
Assets Liabilities and Equity
Cash 8,000 Accounts payable 16,000
Marketable securities 2,000 Notes payable 6,000
Accounts receivable 6,000 Current liabilities 22,000
Inventory 45,000 Long term debt 95,000
Current assets 61,000 Total liabilities 117,000
Machines 34,000 Paid in capital 20,000
Real estate 800,000 Retained earnings 38,000
Fixed assets 114,000 Equity 58,000
Total assets 175,000 Total liab. & equity 175,000
Annual net income for 2016 = $86,000
Scenario A:
Total assets = 261,000 - 86,000 = 175,000
Total liabilities 117,000
Total equity = 144,000 - 86,000 = 58,000
Scenario B:
Total assets = 261,000 - 43,000 = 218,000
Total liabilities 117,000
Total equity = 144,000 - 43,000 = 101,000
Scenario C:
Total assets = 261,000 - 86,000 = 175,000
Total liabilities 117,000 - 86,000 = 31,000
Total equity = 144,000
Scenario D:
Total assets = 261,000 - 43,000 - 2,000 = 216,000
Total liabilities 117,000 - 2,000 = 115,000
Total equity = 144,000 - 43,000 = 101,000
b) The effect of dividend payment on equity is that cash dividends reduce the total equity just as cash is diminished. But when it retains its net income without paying dividends, the total equity is increased just as its assets are bolstered.

The Sisyphean Company's common stock is currently trading for $25.00 per share. The stock is expected to pay a $2.50 dividend at the end of the year and the Sisyphean Company's equity cost of capital is 14%. If the dividend payout rate is expected to remain constant, then the expected growth rate in the Sisyphean Company's earnings is closest to:
Answer:
4%
Explanation:
The Gordon constant growth dividend model =
Value = dividend / cost of capital - growth rate
Subsisting with the values given in the question gives :
25 = 2.5/0.14 - g
To solve for g,
1. multiply both sides by 0.14 - g
25(0.14 -g) = 2.5
2. divide both sides by 25
0.14 - g = 0.10
g = 0.04 = 4%

A) $6,000 negative
B) $6,000 positive
C) $5,000 positive
D) $7,000 negative
Answer:
D) $7,000 negative
Explanation:
What amount of net cash flow would be shown in the financing section of the statement of cash flows?
Amount of net cash flow to be shown in the financing section of the statement of cash flows = Decrease in Account payable - Increase in accrued liabilities + Borrow of new long term notes payable - Repayment of long term notes payable
= -$2,000 + $1,000 + $34,000 - $40,000
= -$7,000
Thomlin Company forecasts that total overhead for the current year will be $10,282,000 with 194,000 total machine hours. Year to date, the actual overhead is $5,689,800, and the actual machine hours are 98,100 hours. If Thomlin Company uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours for applying overhead, as of this point in time (year to date), the overhead is
Answer:
$490,500 underapplied
Explanation:
The computation of the overhead is shown below:
But before that the predetermined overhead rate and the applied overhead is
Predetermined overhead rate is
= Estimated overhead ÷ estimated activity
= $10,282,000 ÷ 194,000
= $53 per MH
Now
Applied overhead = actual activity × overhead rate
= 98,100 hours ×$53 per MH
= $5,199,300
Now the underapplied overhead is
= $5,689,800 - $5,199,300
= $490,500 underapplied
Consider the following process that makes customized suits. When an order is placed, measurement is taken, which takes 30 minutes to complete. After taking the measurement, materials are prepared and cut, and this takes one hour. Once the materials are prepared and cut, the materials are sewed. Sewing takes 2.5 hours on average per order. The process operates for 10 hours a day. The following picture summarizes the process.
1. What is the capacity of the process in [suits/day]?
2. Assume that the demand for the customized suit is 0.2[suits/hour]. What should the flow rate of the process be in [suits/day]?
3. Assume that the demand for the customized suit is 0.5[suits/hour]. What is the implied utilization (in %) of the Sewing stage?
4. Assume that the demand for the customized suit is 0.5[suits/hour]. What is the utilization (in %) of the Measuring stage?
Answer:
1. The capacity of the process
= 2.5 suits /day
2. The flow rate of the process = 2.5 suits/10 hours
= 0.25 suits per hour
3. The implied utilization of the Sewing stage = (0.5 * 150 minutes * 4) 300 minutes = 5/10
= 50%
4. The utilization of the Measuring stage = (0.5 * 30 minutes * 4) 60 minutes = 1/10
= 10%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Time taken for the measurement of a suit = 30 minutes
Time for preparation and cutting of materials = 60 minutes (1 hour)
Time for sewing = 150 minutes (2.5 hours or 2 hours, 30 minutes)
Total time taken to make a suit = 4 hours
Available production time per day = 600 minutes (6 hours)
Therefore, 6/4 suits can be produced per day, this equals 2.5 suits.
You are the creative director at a Milwaukee ad agency. Today, your copywriters are presenting you with their ideas for several 30-second radio spots for the City of Milwaukee Tourism Bureau, which wants to feature its own information center and tours, as well as city museums, art galleries, concerts, festivals, and special events. When they are ready, the best ideas will be taken to the marketing director at the City of Milwaukee for review and approval.(Scenario ) One copywriter shows you an idea that involves an announcer reading a "top ten" list of cool reasons to visit Milwaukee. What basic guidelines of radio copywriting does this technique address?a. Repeat the brand name.b. Stress the main selling points.c. Stimulate the imagination.d. Tailor copy to a time, place, and audience.
Answer:
City of Milwaukee Tourism Bureau
The basic guideline of radio copywriting that this technique addresses is:
b. Stress the main selling points.
Explanation:
Exploiting the city's selling points and communicating the benefits derivable from touring the city's museums, art galleries, concerts, festivals, and special events are the top guidelines for radio copywriting. Other guidelines will include focusing on the "you" and not "we," not providing too much information, and including a call for action.
You are a supplier of printed circuit boards (PCBs). Production of the circuit boards consists of several steps – Surface Mounting, Baking, and Final Assembly. Surface Mounting puts integrated circuits (ICs) and other components on a PCB. These PCBs are then Baked as a batch and kept in an oven for some time so that the ICs are soldered onto the PCBs. Finally, these PCBs are taken and manually assembled into a case, and wired with connectors. The processing rate at the Surface Mounting station is 15 PCBs/minute, the processing rate for Baking is 5 PCBs/minute, and the processing rate for Final Assembly is 3 PCBs/minute. If there are on average 24 units of (work in process) inventory and the system is working at capacity, what is the flow (throughput) time for PCBs?
Answer:
the flow (throughput) time for PCBs is 40 units per minute
Explanation:
Given that;
Work in progress WIP = 24
we calculate the time spent to make the PCBs, lead time
Processing rate at the Surface Mounting station is 15 PCBs/minute
so time taken by a single PCB at the SM operation = 1/15 min
Processing rate for Baking is 5 PCBs/minute
so time taken by a single PCB at the baking operation = 1/5 min
the processing rate for Final Assembly is 3 PCBs/minute
so time taken by a single PCB at the assembly = 1/3 min
∴ total time taken will be;
(1/15) + (1/5) + (1/3)
= 0.6 min
Now, using Little's Law;
Working in progress WIP = throughput × lead time
Throughput = WIP / Lead time
so we substitute
Throughput = 24 / 0.6 min
Throughput = 40 units per minute
Therefore the flow (throughput) time for PCBs is 40 units per minute
Schultz Electronics manufactures two ultra high-definition television models: the Royale which sells for $1,580, and a new model, the Majestic, which sells for $1,270. The production cost computed per unit under traditional costing for each model in 2020 was as follows.
Traditional Costing Royale Majestic
Direct materials $650 $420
Direct labor ($20 per hour) 120 100
Manufacturing overhead ($42 per DLH) 252 210
Total per unit cost $1,022 $730
In 2017, Schultz manufactured 25,000 units of the Royale and 10,000 units of the Majestic. The overhead rate of $42 per direct labor hour was determined by dividing the total expected manufacturing overhead of $8,449,220 by the total direct labor hours (200,000) for the two models. Under traditional costing, the gross profit on the models was Royale $458 ($1,480 - $1,022) and Majestic $540 ($1,270 - $730). Because of this difference, management is considering phasing out the Royale model and increasing the production of the Majestic model. Before finalizing its decision, management asks Schultz's controller to prepare an analysis using activity-based costing (ABC).

You are asked to study the causal effect of hours spent on employee training (measured in hours per worker per week) in a manufacturing plant on the productivity of its workers (output per worker per hour). Describe EITHER ONE a-an ideal randomized controlled experiment to measure this causal effect.
Answer and Explanation:
An ideal randomized controlled experiment to measure the productivity of the factory would be established in the following way: owners of all sectors of the factory would be selected. This selection would be done completely randomly so that it was possible to select individuals different from each other. These employees would be divided into two groups. The first group would receive training, the second group would not receive training.
In this case, the productivity of one group would be compared to the productivity of the other, after both groups were submitted to a period of work, after the first group received training.

Determine whether each of the following is true or false:
1. In the short run, insurance on your property is a fixed cost.
2. In the short run, the heating of your warehouse is a fixed cost.
3. In the long run, there are more fixed costs than in the short run.
Assume that you run a concession stand at a small movie theater selling popcorn. Each day you must pay the theater management $50, so this is your fixed cost. If you are able to sell 100 boxes of popcorn each day, the variable cost per box is $0.15. Use these figures to determine average fixed cost, average variable cost, and average total cost.

Explanation:
On January 1, 2021, American Corporation purchased 30% of the outstanding voting shares of Short Supplies common stock for $222,000 cash. On that date, Short's book value and fair value were both $740,000. The equity method is deemed appropriate for this investment. Short's net income reported on December 31, 2021, was $70,000. During 2021, Short also paid cash dividends in the amount of $19,000.
Required:
Compute the amount that would be reported for the investment on American Corporation's financial statements at December 31, 2021. what is investment amount?
Answer:
the amount that should be reported for the investment is $237,300
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that should be reported for the investment is as follows:
= Original investment + net income share - cash dividend
= $222,000 + ($70,000 × 30%) - ($19,000 × 0.30)
= $222,000 + $21,000 - $5,700
= $237,300
hence, the amount that should be reported for the investment is $237,300
Sheridan Company has $21000 of ending finished goods inventory as of December 31, 2019. If beginning finished goods inventory was $15000 and cost of goods sold was $50000, how much would Sheridan report for cost of goods manufactured
Answer:
$56,000
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of goods manufactured is shown below:
As we know that
Cost of goods sold = Opening finished goods inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished goods inventory
$50,000 = $15,000 + cost of goods manufactured - $21,000
So, the cost of goods manufactured is
= $50000 + $6,000
= $56,000

Suppose that Texas Trucking (TT) has earnings per share of $3.45 and EBITDA of $45 million. TT also has 5 million shares outstanding and debt o $150 million (net of cash). You believe that Oklahoma Logistics and Transport (OLT) is comparable to TT in terms of its underlying business, but OLT has no debt. OLT has a P/E of 12.5 and an enterprise value to EBITDA multiple of 7. Based upon the enterprise value to EBITDA ratio, the value of a share of Texas Trucking is closest to:
Answer:
$33.00 per share
Explanation:
Calculation to the value of a share of Texas Trucking
Using this formula
Enterprise value = EBITDA × multiple
Let plug in the formula
Enterprise value = $45 × 7 = $315
Enterprise value=$315- $150
Enterprise value=$165
Enterprise value=$165/5 million share
Enterprise value = $33.00 per share
Therefore the value of a share of Texas Trucking is closest to:$33.00 per share
Suppose that you sell short 1,000 shares of Xtel, currently selling for $20 per share, and give your broker $15,000 to establish your margin account.a. If you earn no interest on the funds in your margin account, what will be your rate of return after one year if Xtel stock is selling at: (i) $22; (ii) $20; (iii) $18
Answer:
i) -13.33%
ii)0.00%
iii)13.33%
Explanation:
Calculation for the rate of return after one year
i). Rate of return=(1000*($20-$22))/$15000
Rate of return=(1000*-$2))/$15000
Rate of return=-$2,000/$15000
Rate of return= -13.33%
(ii)Rate of return= (1000*($20-$20))/$15000
Rate of return=(1000*$0)/$15000
Rate of return=$0/$15000
Rate of return= 0.00%
(iii)Rate of return= (1000*($20-$18))/$15000
Rate of return=(1000*$2))/$15000
Rate of return=$2,000/$15000
Rate of return= 13.33%
Therefore what will be your rate of return after one year if Xtel stock is selling at:
(i) $22 will be -13.33%
ii) $20 will be 0.00%
iii) $18 will be 13.33%
Threats. Assessing threats is an essential part of developing a strategic plan for your professional future. If the economy goes into a recession at the same time you graduate, for example, your earnings growth could be reduced for years to come. By examining what potential threats could affect your professional development and creating contingency plans, you will be in a better position to succeed in your pursuit of a job.
Describe three to five threats that could affect your ability to achieve your objectives.
Explanation:
Some threats that can affect an individual's ability to achieve their professional goals may be: an economic recession, the saturated work sector, conflicts in the workplace.
Assessing threats is essential so that the individual can plan their professional future based on risks that may occur and seek prior solutions so that if any of these threats occur, their effects are less negative for the individual.
In the case of an economic recession and a saturated work sector, it would be ideal for the professional to look for a professional plan b, as these are external events that cannot be controlled, but developing new professional skills can mean a quicker and more positive market replacement.
Avoiding conflicts in the workplace is a threat that can be avoided by acting in an ethical and professional manner, always respecting differences, taking responsibility for your role and maintaining effective communication.
A production department's output for the most recent month consisted of 8,800 units completed and transferred to the next stage of production and 5,800 units in ending Work in Process inventory. The units in ending Work in Process inventory were 50% complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion costs. Calculate the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method.
Answer:
11,700 units
Explanation:
Calculation for the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method
Unit completed and transferred to the next stage 8,800 units
Add Unit in ending goods in process inventory 2,900 units
(5,800 units*50%)
Equivalent units of production 11,700 units
(8,800 units+2,900 units)
Therefore the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method will be 11,700 units
