Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. Margin
= Net operating income / Sales
= $4,700,000 / $17,300,000
= 0.2716 or 27.17%
2. Turnover
= Sales / Average operating assets
= $17,300,000 / $36,000,000
= 0.48
3. Return on investment
= Margin × Turnover
= 27.17% × 0.48
= 13%
Tip Top Corp. produces a product that requires 11 standard gallons per unit. The standard price is $4.5 per gallon. If 4,500 units required 50,500 gallons, which were purchased at $4.27 per gallon, what is the direct materials (a) price variance, (b) quantity variance, and (c) cost variance
Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate the direct material price, quantity, and total variance; we need to use the following formulas:
Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity
Direct material price variance= (4.5 - 4.27)*50,500
Direct material price variance= $11,615 favorable
Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price
Direct material quantity variance= (11*4,500 - 50,500)*4.5
Direct material quantity variance= $4,500 unfavorable
Total direct material cost variance= 11,615 - 4,500
Total direct material cost variance= $7,115
Sal’s satellite company broadcasts TV to subscribers in Los Angeles and New York. The demand functions for each of these two groups are QNY = 60 - 0.25PNY QLA = 100 - 0.50PLA where Q is in thousands of subscriptions per year and P is the subscription price per year. The cost of providing Q units of service is given by C =1000 +40Q where Q=QNY +QLA What are the profit-maximizing price and quantity for the New York?
Answer:
For New York, the profit-maximizing price is $100 and the profit-maximizing quantity is 25.
Explanation:
For both Los Angeles and New York, we have:
C = 1000 + 40Q where Q=QNY +QLA
MC = dC/dQ = 40 ………………………. (1)
For New York, we have:
QNY = 60 - 0.25PNY ……………… (2)
Solving for PNY, we have:
0.25PNY = 60 - QNY
PNY = (60 / 0.25) - (1/0.25)QNy
PNY = 240 - 4QNY ………………. (3)
RNY = Revenue in New York = PNY * QNY = (240 - 4QNY)QNY = 240QNY – 4QNY^2 ………. (5)
MRNY = dRNY/dQNY = 240 - 8QNY ……….. (5)
Since profit is maximized when MC = MR, we therefore equate equations (1) and (5) and solve for QNY as follows:
40 = 240 - 8QNY
8QNY = 240 - 40
8QNY = 200
QNY = 200 / 8 = 25
Substituting QNY = 25 into equation (3), we have:
PNY = 240 - (4 * 25) = 240 - 100 = 100
Therefore, the profit-maximizing price is $100 and the profit-maximizing quantity is 25 for the New York.

Fischer Company uses 12,000 units of a part in its production process. The costs to make a part are: direct material, $15; direct labor, $27; variable overhead, $15; and applied fixed overhead, $32. Heath has received a quote of $60 from a potential supplier for this part. If Fischer buys the part, 75 percent of the applied fixed overhead would continue. Fischer Company would be better off by Select one: a. $60,000 to buy the part b. $216,000 to manufacture the part c. $30,000 to manufacture the part d. $348,000 to buy the part
Answer:
Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Number of units= 12,000
Make in-house:
Direct material, $15
direct labor, $27
variable overhead, $15
applied fixed overhead, $32
Buy:
Buying price= $60
If Fischer buys the part, 75 percent of the applied fixed overhead would continue.
First, we will calculate the avoidable fixed overhead per unit:
Avoidable fixed overhead= 32*0.25= $8
Now, the total differential cost of making in-house:
Total cost of production= 12,000*(15 + 27 + 15 + 8)
Total cost of production= 12,000*65
Total cost of production= $780,000
Total cost of buying= 60*12,000= $720,000
Difference= $60,000 in favor of buying

Assume that a company sets the transfer price for a product made by division A and sent to division B as full cost 10%. Further assume that division A is treated as a profit center. Discuss the incentives this situation creates for the manager of division A and why it is not in the company's best interest. (30 words maximum)
Answer and Explanation:
The manager of division A has the advantage of always selling at a profit since his department is positioned to always sell at profit to division B. However, selling at a transfer price to another department has the tendency to bring an incoherence of operations and decisions in the organization as a whole. If transfer price is high, it is possible that employees of department B may be demotivated as the high costs may negate operations and therefore look bad on their performance.

When the Treasury bond market becomes less liquid, other things equal, the demand curve for corporate bonds shifts to the ________ and the demand curve for Treasury bonds shifts to the ________.
Answer: right; left
Explanation:
When the Treasury bond market becomes less liquid, other things equal, the demand curve for corporate bonds shifts to the right and the demand curve for Treasury bonds shifts to the left.
Liquidity is highly sought after in the bond market such that more liquid securities have a higher demand than less liquid securities.
Should Treasury bills become less liquid, their demand would decrease which would result in the demand curve for treasury bills shifting to the left.
More people would then switch over to Corporate bonds which would have more liquidity. The increase in demand for corporate bonds will lead to the demand curve for corporate bonds shifting to the right.
