During the coming year, Colgate expects an increase in variable manufacturing costs of $8 per unit and in fixed manufacturing costs of $35,000. (a) If sales for 2015 remain at 13,000 units, what price should Colgate charge to obtain the same profit as last year? Round to the nearest cent.
Answers
Answer: $130.69
Explanation:
Colgate made a Net Income of $167,000 in 2014 and sold 13,000 units.
Variable costs were $663,000 and fixed costs were $730,000.
Variable costs are to increase by $8 per unit and fixed costs by $35,000.
Price to sell at to maintain same profit as last year will be x
167,000 = 13,000x - (Old + New Variable cost) - ( Old + New Fixed Cost)
167,000 = 13,000x - (663,000 + (8* 13,000)) - ( 730,000 + 35,000)
167,000 = 13,000x - 767,000 - 765,000
167,000 = 13,000x - 1,532,000
13,000x = 1,699,000
x = 1,699,000/13,000
x = $130.69

A process capability index of 2 means that the upper and lower specification limits of the process are six standard deviations above and below the mean respectively. True or False? Eliminating variations is always possible. True or False?
Answers
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The formula to compute the process capability index is shown below:
Cpk = minimum [(Mean - LSL) ÷ 3σ , (USL – Mean) ÷ 3σ]
Now
If Cpk = 2,
so
(Mean - LSL) ÷ 3σ = 2 or (USL – Mean) ÷ 3σ = 2
Mean – LSL = 6σ or USL – Mean = 6σ
Therefore, if Cpk = 2, the process's USL or LSL is six standard deviations (6σ) up or down mean

An office building owned by Milo was destroyed by Hurricane Mel on September 25, Year 4. On October 2, Year 4, the President of the United States declared the area where the office building was located a federal disaster area. Milo received settlement of his insurance claim for the destruction of his building on January 2, Year 5. In order to qualify for nonrecognition of gain on this involuntary conversion, what is the last date for Milo to acquire qualified replacement property
Answers
Answer:
December 31, year 9
Explanation:
Here, we want to state that date that is possible for Milo to acquire qualified replacement property.
In order to avoid being taxed on a gain resulting from an involuntary conversion, the property subject to the conversion must be replaced within a specified time, measured from the end of the calendar year in which the proceeds are received.
Generally, the period is 2 years, but it is 3 years when the involuntary conversion results from government condemnation or eminent domain and is extended to 4 years when the loss is in connection with a declared federal disaster area.
We are told from the question that Milo received the recovery on January 2, Year 5, the property would have to be replaced within 4 years from the end of Year 5 or by December 31, Year 9
Billy Thornton borrowed $20,000 at a rate of 7.25%, simple interest, with interest paid at the end of each month. The bank uses a 360-day year. How much interest would Billy have to pay in a 30-day month
Answers
Answer:
Interest for a 30 day month = $120.83
Explanation:
Interest rate rate is the price paid by a borrower for the use of money and the return earned by a lender for postponing his consumption in favour of investment.
Interest is computed in two ways; Simple interest and compound interest
Simple interest: This is the interest paid on the principal invested or borrowed. To calculate simple interest, we use the formula below:
Annual Simple interest= Principal × interest Rate (%) × Time.
Monthly simple interest =Principal ×interest Rate (%)× 30/360
= 20,000 × 7.25% × 30/360= 120.833
Interest for a 30 day month = $120.83

Answer:
What are the firm's economic profits (or losses) if it sells 425 comma 000 copies of the antivirus software program at a $1.00 price per copy?
economic profit = revenue - total costs = $425,000 - $3,075,000 = ($2,650,000)What are the maximum economic profits that the firm can earn in the short run?
maximum economic profit = (225,000 x $40) - $2,875,000 = $6,125,000What is marginal revenue when the firm maximizes its short-run economic profits?
$40Marginal revenue refers to the revenue generated by selling 1 more unit.
In the long run, after entry of competing firms, to the nearest dollar, and including the correct sign, what amount of economic profits will this firm earn?
$0On the long run, economic profit will always = 0
Explanation:
price per copy units sold total revenue
$1 425,000 $425,000
$40 225,000 $9,000,000
total cost to produce and sell 425,000 copies = (425,000 x $1) + $2,650,000 = $3,075,000
total cost to produce and sell 275,000 copies = (275,000 x $1) + $2,650,000 = $2,925,000

A stock has an expected return of 10.2 percent, the risk-free rate is 3.9 percent, and the market risk premium is 7.2 percent. What must the beta of this stock be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answers
Answer:
Beta= 0.88
Explanation:
The Capital Asset pricing Model (CAPM) can be used to determined the beta.
According to the Capital Asset pricing Model the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio.
These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.
Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)
Rf-risk-free rate (treasury bill rate), β= Beta, Rm= Return on market.
Ke- expected return.
Note that (Rm-Rf) is known as equity risk premium
Using this model,
10.2%= 3.9% + β× (7.2%)
0.102=0.039 + 0.072β
collect like terms
0.072β = 0.102 -0.039
0.072β = 0.063
Divide both sides by 0.072
β = 0.063 /0.072
β= 0.875
Beta= 0.88
Some studies done by economists have found that the original inventor receives _________________________________________________ from innovations, while other businesses and new product users receive the rest of the benefit.
Answers
Answer:
one-third to one-half of the total economic benefits
Explanation:
It has been found that although most inventors put in a lot of time, money, energy, and intellect into discovering new products, they most times do not make much gains from their discoveries. The rate at which other competing firms copy the new innovations, make it such that the innovative company might lose the sole right to market the product and make any gains from the sale.
Economists from their own research have also found that the original inventor just makes one-third to one-half of the total economic benefits from the new product, while other businesses receive the remaining benefits because of their ability to copy the original. Sometimes the innovators go through legal battles to secure patent rights, and even after this, they may not make enough money to cover all the expenses.
Waterway Company applies manufacturing overhead to jobs on the basis of machine hours used. Overhead costs are estimated to total $346,775 for the year, and machine usage is estimated at 126,100 hours. For the year, $369,500 of overhead costs are incurred and 130,800 hours are used.

Answers
Answer:
Waterway Company
Journal entry:
Debit Cost of goods sold $9,800
Credit Manufacturing overhead expense $9,800
To assign the underapplied overhead to cost of goods sold.
Explanation:
a) Data and calculations:
Estimated overhead costs = $346,775
Estimated machine usage = 126,100 hours
Overhead rate applied = $346,775/126,100 = $2.75 per hour
Actual overhead costs = $369,500
Actual machine usage = 130,800 hours
Actual overhead rate = $369,500/130,800 = $2.82
Overhead was underapplied by the difference between actual overhead costs applied and actual overhead.
Actual overhead applied = $2.75 x 130,800 = $359,700
Actual overhead costs = $369,500
Difference (underapplied) is $9,800
When the overhead is underapplied or overapplied because of the rate used based on actual usage, the underapplied overhead is a debit or credit to the cost of goods sold respectively. While underapplied overhead increases the cost of goods sold, overapplied reduces the cost of goods sold by the amount of under- or over-application.
A company is obligated to pay its creditors $6,100 at the end of the year. If the value of the company's assets equals $5,800 at that time, what is the value of shareholders' equity

A publishing company sells 450 comma 000 copies of certain books each year. It costs the company $ 1 to store each book for a year. Each time it must print additional copies, it costs the company $ 1 comma 000 to set up the presses. How many books should the company produce during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup costs?
Answers
Answer:
The company produce 30,000 books during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup costs.
Explanation:
The quantity that minimizes total storage and setup costs is known as Economic Order Quantity, in this case it is called the Optimum Batch Quantity.
Optimum Batch Quantity = √((2 × Annual demand × Setup cost per process) / Holding Cost per book.)
= √( (2 × 450,000 × $1,000) / $1)
= 30,000
Conclusion :
The company produce 30,000 books during each printing in order to minimize its total storage and setup costs.

For the land, Peroni received $75,000 in cash in the current year and a note providing Peroni with $225,000 in the subsequent year. What is Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year, respectively
Answers
Answer:
Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year is $12,502 and $37,507
Explanation:
In order to calculate Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year we would have to calculate first the Gross profit on sale with the following formula:
Gross profit on sale=(parcel of land sold-land basis)/parcel of land sold
Gross profit on sale=($300,000-$250,000)/$300,000
Gross profit on sale=16.67%
Hence, Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year would be as follows:
current year=amount received in cash*Gross profit on sale
current year=$75,000*16.67%
current year=$12,502
subsequent year=$225,000*16.67%
subsequent year=$37,507
Peroni's recognized gain in the current and subsequent year is $12,502 and $37,507

Chutes & Co. has interest expense of $ 1.25 million and an operating margin of 10.8 % on total sales of $ 30.7 million. What is Chutes' interest coverage ratio?
Answers
Answer:
2.7 times
Explanation:
Chutes and co. has an interest expense of 1.25 million
Operating margin of 10.8%
Total sales of 30.7 million
The first step is to calculate the operating income
Operating income= Sales×operating margin
= $30,700,000×10.8/100
= $30,700,000×0.108
= $3,315,600
Therefore, the interest coverage ratio can be calculated as follows
Interest coverage ratio= Operating income/Interest expense
= $3,315,600/$1,250,000
= 2.65
= 2.7 times
Hence Chutes' interest coverage ratio is 2.7 times

a. True
b. False

Answer:
The correct answer is the option B: False.
Explanation:
To begin with, the concept of "Rule Utilitarism" refers to a type of utilitarism in where the main characteristic is in the belief that an action is right when it conforms to a rule that leads to the greatest good. Therefore that under this type of ideology, the utilitarians believe that an action would be right when the amount of good that it brings is greater than the action itself. And that is why that for an utilitarian to steal would not be wrong in the case that a greater good would come afterwards for the majority, so that means, better consequences.

B. Net income is understated and stockholders' equity is correct.
C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
D. Net income and stockholders' equity are both unaffected.
Answers
Answer:
C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.
Explanation:
In the income statement , ending inventory is deducted from the addition of the beginning inventory and net purchases to arrive at the cost of goods sold. Therefore, the cost of goods can be stated as an equation stated as follows:
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + Net purchases - Ending inventory
From the above equation, it can be observed that if the ending inventory is overstated, cost of goods sold will be understated by that amount.
Since gross income is determined by deducting cost of goods sold from the net sales, an understated cost of goods sold will result in an overstated gross income and subsequently overstated net income.
Since net income is one of the components of the stockholders' equity, an overstated net income will leads to an overstated stockholders' equity.
Therefore, the correct option is C. Net income and stockholders' equity are both overstated.

Answers
Answer:
$538,000
Explanation:
EFN = [(assets/sales) x ($ Δ sales)] - [(liabilities/sales) x ($ Δ sales)] - [profit margin x forecasted sales x (1 - dividend payout)]
current sales = $5,000,000
change in sales = $1,000,000
assets $4,000,000
profit margin = 6%
1 - dividend payout = 45%
current liabilities that change in proportion to sales = $500,000
forecasted sales = $6,000,000
EFN = [($4,000,000/$5,000,000) x ($1,000,000)] - [($500,000/$5,000,000) x ($1,000,000)] - (6% x $6,000,000 x 0.45)
EFN = $800,000 - $100,000 - $162,000 = $538,000

Consider two bonds, a 3-year bond paying an annual coupon of 6.90% and a 10-year bond also with an annual coupon of 6.90%. Both currently sell at a face value of $1,000. Now suppose interest rates rise to 12%.
Required:
a. What is the new price of the 3-year bonds?
b. What is the new price of the 10-year bonds?
Answers
Answer:
a.
$877.51
b.
$711.84
Explanation:
Price of the bond is the present value of all cash flows of the bond. These cash flows include the coupon payment and the maturity payment of the bond. Both of these cash flows discounted and added to calculate the value of the bond.
According to given data
Face value of the bond is $1,000
Coupon payment = C = $1,000 x 6.9% = $69 annually
Market Rate = 12% annually
Price of the bond is calculated by following formula:
Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]
a.
Numbers of period = 3
Placing values in the formula
Price of the Bond = $69 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 12% )^-3 ) / 12% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 12% )^3 ]
Price of the Bond = $165.73 + $711.78
Price of the Bond = $877.51
b.
Numbers of period = 10
Placing values in the formula
Price of the Bond = $69 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 12% )^-10 ) / 12% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 12% )^10 ]
Price of the Bond = $389.87 + 321.97
Price of the Bond = $711.84
