The Iberia Tire Company has 3,000 tires in its inventory which are considered obsolete. Each tire originally cost the company $35 and the normal selling price was $45 per tire. Management is considering two options to reduce these inventory levels. Option one is to sell the tires directly to car dealerships for $30 per tire as opposed to the normal selling price of $45 per tire. The other option is to offer their current customers a $10 per tire rebate on their purchase. In addition to the $10 rebate, the program would cost the company approximately $24,000 to manage. They predict that either option will rid them completely of their excess The decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:_______
A. A $21,000 increase in profits.
B. A $9,000 increase in profits.
C. A $15,000 decrease in profits.
D. A $24,000 decrease in profits.
Answer:
B. A $9,000 increase in profits
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what The decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:
First step is to calculate the net selling prices for each group
Car dealership total price of sales = 3000 × 30 Car dealership total price of sales =$90,000
Current customers;
First step is to calculate the price of 1 tire
Price of 1 tire = $45 - $10 rebate
Price of 1 tire = $35
Total selling price = 35 × 3000
Total selling price= $105,000
Second step is to calculate net amount gotten from sales to customers
Net income= $105,000 - $24,000
Net income= $81,000
Now let calculate what the decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:
Decision to sell = 90,000 - 81,000
Decision to sell= $9,000 increase in profits
Therefore the decision to sell directly to the car dealerships over offering the rebate will result in:$9,000 increase in profits

Saginaw Steel Corporation has a precredit U.S. tax of $110,000 on $505,000 of taxable income. Saginaw has $205,000 of foreign source taxable income and paid $65,000 of income taxes to the German government on this income. All of the foreign source income is treated as foreign branch income for foreign tax credit purposes. Saginaw's foreign tax credit on its tax return will be: (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to nearest whole dollar amount.)
Answer: $44654
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the foreign tax credit will be allowed to the amount of the tax that is paid to foreign government which is $65000 which is then subject to the US tax limit that is applicable on that particular income which will be:
= 205000 × 110000/505000
= 44654
Therefore, the tax credit will be the one that's lesser between $65000 and $44654. Therefore the answer will be $44654.
frocks and gowns incorporated has two divisions day wear and night wear the day wear division has an investment base of 880,000 and produces and sells 134,500 units of collars at a market price of 12.20 wants to purchase 27,000 units of collars from the day wear division. what is the minimum transfer price that the day wear division would accept for the 27,000 unit order from the night wear
Question
Frocks and gowns incorporated has two divisions day wear and night wear the day wear division has an investment base of $880,000 and produces (and sells) 134,,500 units of Collars at a market price of $12.20 per unit. Variable costs total $7.80 per unit, and fixed charges are $3.90 per unit (based on a capacity of 140,000 units). The Night Wear Division wants to purchase 27,000 units of Collars from The Day Wear Division. However, the Night Wear Division is only willing to pay $8.45 per unit.
What is the contribution margin for the Day Wear Division without the transfer to the Night Wear Division?
Answer:
The minimum transfer value = $305,200
Explanation:
The company current has an excess capacity of 140,000-134,500=5,500 units
These available quantities can sold at a minimum transfer price of $7.80.
However, the balance of 21,500 (i.e 27,000 minus 5,500) should be transferred at the market price of $12.20. This is so because there is an opportunity cost attached to units supplied which is the contribution to be earned if sold at the market price.
Hence, The 27,000 units should transferred at the value computed below:
$
First 5,500= $5,500× $7.80= 42,900
The balance of 21,500 × $12.20= 262,300
The total value 305,200
The minimum transfer value = $305,200

Hannish Orchards, a juice manufacturer, uses a process that adds all the raw materials at the beginning of the process. Conversion costs are evenly distributed. Assume there are no beginning inventories. During the period the company started making 10,000 gallons. There were 2,000 gallons left in ending WIP that were 40% of the way through the process. Costs incurred during the period were: $ 16,000 Raw materials $ 5,500 Conversion costs The cost assigned to ending work in process would be closest to: A) $3,700 B) $4,300 C) $1,720 D) $1,780
Answer:
a. $3,700
Explanation:
Unit completed = 10000 - 2000 = 8000
Equivalent unit of material = 10000
Equivalent unit of conversion = 8000 + (2000*40%)
Equivalent unit of conversion = 8800
Cost per equivalent unit of material = $16000/10000
Cost per equivalent unit of material = $1.6
Cost per equivalent unit of conversion = $5500/8800
Cost per equivalent unit of conversion = $0.625
Cost of ending WIP = Equivalent unit of material*Unit cost+Equivalent unit of conversion*Unit cost
Cost of ending WIP = 2000*$1.6 + (2000*40%)*$0.625
Cost of ending WIP = $3200 + $500
Cost of ending WIP = $3,700
Rommer Company purchases Daley Inc. for $4,700,000 cash on January 1, 2020. The book value of Daley Company's net assets, as reflected on its December 31, 2019 statement of financial position is $4,000,000. An analysis by Rommer on December 31, 2019 indicates that the fair value of Daley's tangible assets exceeded the book value by $525,000, and the fair value of identifiable intangible assets exceeded book value by $150,000. How much goodwill should be recognized by Rommer Company when recording the purchase of Daley Inc.
Answer:
$25,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much goodwill should be recognized by Rommer Company when recording the purchase of Daley Inc.
Using this formula
Goodwill=Beginning cash-Ending book value-Fair value tangible assets-Fair value intangible assets
Let plug in the formula
Goodwill=$4,700,000-$4,000,000-$525,000-$150,000
Goodwill=$25,000
Therefore the goodwill that the company should be recognized by Rommer Company when recording the purchase of Daley Inc. $25,000
Kuhn does not have any retained earnings available to finance this project, so the firm will have to issue new common stock to help fund it. Its common stock is currently selling for $22.35 per share, and it is expected to pay a dividend of $2.78 at the end of next year. Flotation costs will represent 8% of the funds raised by issuing new common stock. The company is projected to grow at a constant rate of 9.2%, and they face a tax rate of 25%. What will be the WACC for this project
Answer:
The WACC for this project is 22.72%.
Explanation:
P = common stock current selling price per share = $22.35
D1 = Expected dividend next year = $2.78
F = Floating cost = 8%, or 0.08
g = growth rate = 9.2%, or 0.092
t = tax rate = 0.25
r = Ke = cost of equity
The cost of equity can be calculated using the dividend grow model with the consideration of the effect of the issuance or floating cost that reduces cash collected as follows:
P(1 – F) = D1 / (r – g) ….................... (1)
Substituting the relevant value into equation (1) and solve r as follows:
22.35(1 – 0.08) = 2.78 / (r – 0.092)
22.35 * 0.92 = 2.78 / (r – 0.092)
20.562 = 2.78 / (r – 0.092)
20.562 (r – 0.092) = 2.78
20.562r - 1.891704 = 2.78
20.562r = 2.78 + 1.891704
20.562r = 4.671704
r = 4.671704 / 20.562
r = 0.2272, or 22.72%
Since there is no information that shows there is a debt, this implies that WACC is equal to the cost of equity. Therefore, we have:
WACC = r = Ke = 22.72

Round your answer to the nearest hundredths place.
Answer:
the cost would be $143.50
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of producing 40 pizza pies is shown below:
Cost = no of workers × wage rate per hour
= 4.10 × $35
= $143.50
We simply multiplied the number of workers with the wage rate per hour so that the cost of generating 40 pizza pies could come
hence, the cost would be $143.50
The same would be considered
Imagine that two goods are available to you: servants (X) and robots (Y). You like servants three times as much as robots. If your domestic help budget is $4,000 per month, the price (wage) of servants is $1500 per person per month, and the price (rent) of robots is $400 per unit per month, what is the value of the MktRS (market rate of substitution)
Answer: 3
Explanation:
The marginal rate of substitution simply means the rate at which one good will be exchanged for another good based on the current market price.
Since you like servants three times as much as robots, this implies that the utility that one gets from one servant is exactly like the utility that will be gotten from three robots.
Therefore, the utility function will be:
U = 3X + Y
Then, the marginal rate of substitution will be:
= MUX/MUY
= 3
The term economic tax incidence refers to Question 8 options: whether buyers or sellers of a good are required to send tax payments to the government. whether the demand curve or the supply curve shifts when the tax is imposed. the distribution of the tax burden between buyers and sellers. widespread view that taxes always will be a fact of life.
Answer:
the distribution of the tax burden between buyers and sellers.
Explanation:
Tax is a compulsory sum levied by the government on goods and services. it increases the price of goods and services
Economic tax incidence refers to who bears the burden of tax which is dependent on the elasticities of demand of the consumer and the elasticities of supply of the supplier
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of supply to changes in price. Supply can be elastic, inelastic or unit elastic
if demand is elastic and supply is inelastic, the burden of tax would be borne by suppliers.
The party between the supplier and the consumer that has a more elastic demand would bear less tax incidence and the party that has a less elastic demand would bear more tax incidence

The annual demand for a product is 14,400 units. The weekly demand is 277 units with a standard deviation of 80 units. The cost to place an order is $28.00, and the time from ordering to receipt is eight weeks. The annual inventory carrying cost is $0.10 per unit. a. Find the reorder point necessary to provide a 95 percent service probability. (Use Excel's NORM.S.INV() function to find the z value. Round z value to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
2589.56 units
Explanation:
Given that
Annual Demand = 14400 units
Weekly Demand = 277 units
Standard Deviation = 80 units
Ordering cost = $ 28
Lead Time = 8 weeks
Carrying cost = $ 0.10 / unit
Based on the above information
a) For a 95 percent service level, the value of z by referring to the Normal Table in Appendix A) is 1.65
The reorder point is computed as follows:
= Weekly Demand × Lead Time + Z × Standard Deviation × √ Lead Time
=277 × 8 + 1.65 × 80 × √8
= 2216+ 373.56
= 2589.56 units
You are a financial adviser working with a client who wants to retire in eight years. The client has a savings account with a local bank that pays 7% annual interest. The client wants to deposit an amount that will provide her with $1,005,500 when she retires. Currently, she has $302,200 in the account. How much additional money should she deposit now to provide her with $1,005,500 when she retires?
Answer:
$283,005
Explanation:
The computation of the additional money that she deposited now is shown below:
As we know that
Future value = P × FV (7%, 8 Years)
Here
Future value = $1,005,500,
P represent the deposited amount
and FV (7%, 8 Years) is the future value (FV) of $1 at 7% for 8 years. Its value is to be determined from future value table.
From the table, the value of FV (7%, 8 years) is 1.7182.
Now
$1,005,500 = P × 1.7182
P = $1005500 × 1.7182
P = $585205
Now
The Additional deposit amount is
= $585,205 - $302,200
= $283,005
A firm has just paid its annual dividend of $5.64 a share. Thereafter the dividend is expected to increase at a rate of 2% a year. If the firm's stock currently sells for $60 a share, what is the cost of equity
Answer:
11.588 %
Explanation:
The information available allows us to use the Dividend Growth Model to calculate the cost of equity as :
Cost of equity = Expected dividend ÷ Price per share + growth rate
therefore,
Cost of equity = ($5.64 x 1.02) / $60 + 2 %
= 11.588 %

Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
Purchase price = $15,
Ordering cost = $60
Carrying cost = 20 % × $15 = $3
(a) The EOQ (economic order quantity) goes thus:
= ✓(2 × Annual demand × ordering cost / carrying cost )
= ✓(2 × 100000 × 60 / 3)
= ✓(12000000 / 3)
= ✓(4000000)
EOQ = 2000 calculators
b. The inventory cost when PC orders are at the EOQ amount goes thus:
Note that:
Inventory cost = Cost of purchase + Ordering cost + Carrying cost
Cost of purchase = $2000 × $15 = $30000
Ordering cost = 100000 / 2000 × 60 = $3000
Carrying cost = 20% × purchase price = 20% × $30000 = $6000
Then, the total cost will be:
= $30000 + $3000 + $6000
= $39000
b. Inventory cost at 1000 calculators will be:
Purchase cost = $1000 × $15 = $15000
Ordering Cost = Annual demand / Ordering quantity × cost of placing the order
= 100000 / 1000 × 60
= $6000
Carrying cost = 20% × $15000 = $3000
Then, the total inventory cost will be:
= $15000 + $6000 + $3000
= $24000
(iii) Inventory cost at 2500 calculators will be:
Purchase cost = 2500 × purchase price = $2500 × $15
= $37500
Ordering Cost of order = 100000 / 2500 × 60
= $2400
Carrying cost = 20% × $37500 = $7500
Total inventory cost:
= $37500 + $2400 + $7500
= $47400
On January 1, 2019, QRS Company granted 80,000 stock options to certain executives. The options may be exercised on or after December 31, 2022, and expire on January 1, 2026. Each option can be exercised to acquire one share of $1 par common stock for $5. The fair value of each options was estimated to be $3 on the grant date. What amount should QRS recognize as compensation expense for 2020
Answer:
The amount QRS should recognize as compensation expense for 2020 is $80,000.
Explanation:
NS = Number of shares granted as stock option = 80,000
FV = Fair value of the options on the date of grant = $3
N = Number of years from December 31, 2022 to January 1, 2026 = 3
Therefore, we have:
Total compensation expenses = NS * FV = 80,000 * $3 = $240,000
Amount QRS should recognize as compensation expense for 2020 = Total compensation expenses / n = $240,000 / 3 = $80,000
Five years ago, Logocom made a $5 million investment in a new high-temperature material. The product was not well accepted after the first year on the market. However, when it was reintroduced 4 years later, it did sell well during the year. Major research funding to broaden the applications has cost $15 million in year 5. Determine the rate of return for these net cash flows (in $1,000 units).
