Answer:
A) Sewing machine:
initial outlay = -$305,500
net cash flow per year = (234 baseballs per hour - 130 baseballs per hour) x 1,400 hours x $0.48 per baseball = $69,888
NPV = -$305,500 + ($69,888 x 4.968) = -$305,500 + $347,203.58 = $41,703.58
Packing machine:
initial outlay = -$131,800
net cash flow per year = 1,200 hours x $26 per hour = $31,200
NPV = -$131,800 + ($31,200 x 4.968) = -$131,800 + $155,001.60 = $23,201.60
B) PVI of sewing machine = $347,203.58 / $305,500 = 1.137
PVI of packing machine = $155,001.60 / $131,800 = 1.176
C) They should invest in the packing machine since its PVI is higher, meaning that it increases the company's value by a higher amount per dollar invested.
A company has $110,000 in outstanding accounts receivable and it uses the allowance method to account for uncollectible accounts. Experience suggests that 4% of outstanding receivables are uncollectible. The current balance (before adjustments) in the allowance for doubtful accounts is a(n) $1,000 credit. The journal entry to record the adjustment to the allowance account includes a debit to Bad Debts Expense for:
Answer:
Provision on accounts receivable = $110,000 * 4% = $4,400

Analysts look for red flags in financial statements that may signal financial trouble. Which of the following is a red flag that suggests that a company may be in trouble? A. a consistent movement in sales, merchandise inventory, and accounts receivable B. operating activities are a major source of cash flows C. a significant decrease in net income for several years in a row D. a reduction in the debt ratio
Answer:
C. a significant decrease in net income for several years in a row
Explanation:
A significant decrease in net income for several years in a row show that the firm is generating less revenue or its expenses are generally increasing at a rate greater than the sales. This may soon lead into a loss. A loss making firm will eventually have challenges in cashflow. So, this signals financial trouble.
8-4 Valuing Commercial Real Estate BuildingOne Properties is a limited partnership formed with the express purpose of investing in commercial real estate. The firm is currently considering the acquisition of an office building that we refer to simply as building B. Building B is very similar to building A, which recently sold for $36,960,000. BuildingOne has gathered general information about the two buildings, including valuation information for building A:
Answer:
the question is incomplete:
Buildings A and B are similar in size (80,000 and 90,000 square feet, respectively). However, the two buildings differ both in maintenance costs ($23 and $30 per square foot) and rental rates ($100 versus $120 per square foot). At this point, we do not know why these differences exist. Nonetheless, the differences are real and should somehow be accounted for in the analysis of the value of building B using data based on the sale of building A. Building A sold for $462 per square foot, or $36,960,000. This reflects a sales multiple of six times the building’s net operating income (NOI) of $6,160,000 per year and a capitalization rate of 16.67%.
NOI of building A = ($100 x 80,000 ft²) - ($23 x 80,000 ft²) = $6,160,000
NOI of building B = ($120 x 90,000 ft²) - ($30 x 90,000 ft²) = $8,100,000
building B's market value = NOI / capitalization rate = $8,100,000 / 0.1667 = $48,600,000
property value = $48,600,000 / 90,000 ft² = $540 per ft²
Germany is capital abundant country and Japan is labor abundant country. If computers are produced mostly by capital and beer is produced mostly by labor, the H-O model predicts that Question 22 options: Japan will export computers in exchange for beer. Germany will export computers in exchange for beer. Germany is too small to be of economic interest to Japan. Computers and beer don't mix, so trade cannot increase either country's well-being.
Answer:
If computers are produced mostly by capital and beer is produced mostly by labor, the H-O model predicts that
Germany will export computers in exchange for beer.
Explanation:
The H-O model or Heckscher-Ohlin theory is an economic model about the comparative advantages of nations in international trade. The model tries to explain the equilibrium of trade existing between two countries that have varying specialties and natural resources. According to the H-O model, countries export more goods and services for which they have plenty resources than they do for goods and services for which they have scarce resources. For example, if a country has capital in abundance, it will export more of capital-intensive products while it will import labor-intensive products, because it has scarce labor resources.
Pacifica Industrial Products Corporation makes two products, Product H and Product L. Product H is expected to sell 40,000 units next year and Product L is expected to sell 8,000 units. A unit of either product requires 0.4 direct labor-hours.
The company's total manufacturing overhead for the year is expected to be $1,632,000.
Required:
1-a. The company currently applies manufacturing overhead to products using direct labor-hours as the allocation base. If this method is followed, how much overhead cost per unit would be applied to each product? Product H Product L Overhead cost per unit
1-b. Compute the total amount of overhead cost that would be applied to each product Product H Product L Total Total overhead cost
2. Management is considering an activity-based costing system and would like to know what impact this change might have on product costs. For purposes of discussion, it has been suggested that all of the manufacturing overhead be treated as a product-level cost. The total manufacturing overhead would be divided in half between the two products, with $816,000 assigned to Product H and $816,000 assigned to Product L If this suggestion is followed, how much overhead cost per unit would be assigned to each product? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Product H Product L
Overhead cost per unit
Answer:
1a. Product H $16,000
Product L $3,200
1b. Product H $1,360,000
Product L $272,000
Total $1,632,000
2. Product H $20.40

Explanation:
1-a. Calculation for how much overhead cost per unit would be applied to each product
Product H Product L
Number of units produced 40,000 8,000( a)
Direct labor-hours per unit (b) 0.40 0.40 (b)
(a) × (b)=Total direct labor-hours 16,000 3,200 Total =$19,200
Therefore Amount of hoverhead cost per unit applied to each product is :
Product H $16,000
Product L $3,200
1-b. Computation for the total amount of overhead cost that would be applied to each product
Product H Product L Total
Manufacturing overhead applied per unit
0.40 DLH per unit × $85.00 per DLH= $34.00 (a)
Number of units produced 40,000 8,000 (b)
(a) × (b)=Total manufacturing overhead applied $1,360,000 $272,000
Total=Product H $1,360,000+Product L $272,000
Total= $1,632,000
Predetermined overhead rate of $ 85.00 per DLH is calculated as:
Total manufacturing overhead $ 1,632,000(a)
Total direct labor-hours 19,200 DLHs(b)
(a) ÷ (b) =Predetermined overhead rate $ 85.00 per DLH
Therefore the total amount of overhead cost that would be applied to each product is :
Product H $1,360,000
Product L $272,000
Total $1,632,000
C. Calculation for how much overhead cost per unit would be assigned to each product
Product H Product L Total
Total manufacturing overhead assigned (a)
$816,000 $816,000 =$1,632,000
Number of units produced (b) 40,000 8,000
(a) ÷ (b) =Manufacturing overhead per unit $20.40 $102.00
Therefore the amount of overhead cost per unit would be assigned to each product is :
Product H $20.40
Product L -$102.00
QS 23-11 Selection of sales mix LO P3 Excel Memory Company can sell all units of computer memory X and Y that it can produce, but it has limited production capacity. It can produce two units of X per hour or three units of Y per hour, and it has 4,700 production hours available. Contribution margin is $6 for product X and $5 for product Y. 1. Calculate contribution margin per production hour. 2. What is the most profitable sales mix for this Company
Answer:
Contribution margin per production hour
Product X = $12
Product Y = $15
Explanation:
Part 1
Contribution margin per production hour
Contribution margin per production hour = Contribution ÷ Time to produce one product
Therefore,
Product X = $6 ÷ 0.5
= $12
Product Y = $5 ÷ 0.33
= $15
Part 2
The Demand Units of Product X and Product Y are missing so the calculation of profitable sales mix is impossible.
This mix would have been calculated by :
Manufacturing all the units of Product Y since Y has the highest contribution margin per production hour (demand for Y × hours required per unit)With the remainder of hours out of 4,700 after producing all of Product Y demand, we would then produce Product X.
The fictional country of Anastialia is a small country with rich resources in minerals. In an 8 hr work day it can produce 100 pounds of silver or 50 pounds of copper. If Anastialia decides to produce copper instead of silver it is ignoring the fact that its silver production has a(n)________ to copper.
a. production advantage
b. absolute advantage
c. comparative advantage
Answer:
c. comparative advantage
Explanation:
As we know that
The one pound of silver would be equivalent to 0.5 pound of copper
And,
one pound of copper would be equivalent to 2 pounds of silver
based on this, there is a comparative advantage with respect to the silver production
Hence, the correct option is c.
Therefore all the other options are incorrect

The following information was available from the inventory records of Sheffield Corp. for January: Units Unit Cost Total Cost Balance at January 1 9200 $9.73 $89516 Purchases: January 6 6400 10.31 65984 January 26 7900 10.71 84609 Sales January 7 (7700 ) January 31 (11300 ) Balance at January 31 4500 Assuming that Sheffield does not maintain perpetual inventory records, what should be the inventory at January 31, using the weighted-average inventory method, rounded to the nearest dollar
Answer:
$45,990
Explanation:
The Weighted Average Cost Method, calculates a new Unit Cost with every purchase that is made. This is applicable to perpetual Inventory method. In this case we are required to use the periodic Inventory method (Sheffield does not maintain perpetual inventory records). Thus our Unit Cost is calculated from Inventory available for Sale.
Step 1
Units Available For Sales Calculation :
Opening Balance 9,200
Add Purchases (6,400 + 7,900) 14,300
Units Available for Sale 23,500
Less Units Sold (7700 + 11300) (19,000)
Ending Inventory Units 4,500
Step 2
Unit Cost = Total Cost ÷ Units Available for Sale
= ($89,516 + $65,984 + $84,609) ÷ 23,500
= $10.22
Step 3
Ending Inventory = Units in Stock × Unit Cost
= 4,500 × $10.22
= $45,990
garcia company has 11,600 units of its product that were produced last year at a total cost of $174,000. 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 $2 each or it can repair the units at a total cost of $19,600 and then sell them for $5 each. calculate the incremental net income if the units are repaired
Answer:
If the company repairs the units, income will increase by $15,200.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units= 11,600
Garcia can sell the units as is for $2 each or, it can repair the units at a total cost of $19,600 and then sell them for $5 each.
We will not take into account the original cost of production because they remain constant in both options.
Sell as-is:
Effect on income= 11,600*2= $23,200
Repair:
Effect on income= 11,600*5 - 19,600= $38,400
If the company repairs the units, income will increase by $15,200.

Brad's Diner is expanding and expects operating cash flows of $32,000 a year for 4 years as a result. This expansion requires $39,000 in new fixed assets. These assets will be worthless at the end of the project. In addition, the project requires $3,000 of net working capital throughout the life of the project. What is the net present value of this expansion project at a required rate of return of 12 percent
Answer: $57,101.73
Explanation:
First find the present value of the cash inflows. The $32,000 is a constant payment so is an annuity. The net working capital will be realized at the end of the project as well.
Present value of cash inflows = (32,000 * Present value interest factor of an annuity, 4 years, 12%) + 3,000/ (1 + 12%)⁴
= (32,000 * 3.0373) + 1,906.55
= $99,101.73
NPV = Present value of inflows - Outflows
= 99,100.15 - (39,000 + 3,000)
= $57,101.73
You want to be a millionaire when you retire in 40 years. a. How much do you have to save each month if you can earn an annual return of 9.7 percent
Answer:
the amount that saved each month is $173.21
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that saved each month is as follows:
Here we use the PMT formula
Given that
NPER = 40 × 12 = 480
PMT = 9.7% ÷ 12 = 0.81%
PV = $0
FV = $1,000,000
The formula is shown below:
= PMT(RATE;NPER;PV;-FV;TYPE)
The future value comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the pmt is $173.21
Hence, the amount that saved each month is $173.21

Bantam company calculated its net income to be $77,600 based on the unadjusted trial balance. The following adjusting entries were then made for: Salaries and wages owed but not yet paid of $795. Interest earned but not received from investments of $755. Prepaid insurance premiums amounting to $555 have expired. Deferred revenue in the amount of $755 has now been earned. Required: Determine the amount of net income (loss) that will be reported after the adjustments are recorded.
Answer:
$77,760
Explanation:
After adjustment items of expenses will be deducted from the Net income, and items of income will be added to the net income.
Item of expenses = unpaid salary + Prepaid insurance (Expired)
Item of income = Interest earned + revenue
Net income after deduction = 77,600 - 795 - 555 + 755 + 755
Net income after deduction = $77,760
