Garcia Company has 10,400 units of its product that were produced last year at a total cost of $156,000. 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 $3 each or it can repair the units at a total cost of $18,400 and then sell them for $7 each. Calculate the incremental net income if the units are repaired
Answer:
$23,200
Explanation:
Alternative 1 Alternative 2 Incremental
no repairs repair units revenue
sales revenue $31,200 $0 ($31,200)
repair costs $0 -$18,400 ($18,400)
revenue from $0 $72,800 $72,800
selling repaired units
total $23,200
Incremental revenues refer to the extra or additional revenues generated by a business activity or transaction. In this case, repairing and then selling the damaged units would increase income by $23,200.

Can you explain answer below:
#28 The Canadian subsidiary of a U.S. company reported cost of goods sold of 50,000 C$, for the current year ended December 31. The beginning inventory was 15,000 C$, and the ending inventory was 10,000 C$. Spot rates for various dates are as follows:
Date beginning inventory was acquired $1.08 = 1C$
Rate at beginning of the year $1.10 = 1C$
Weighted average rate for the year $1.12 = 1C$
Date ending inventory was acquired $1.13 = 1C$
Assuming the Canadian dollar is the functional currency of the Canadian subsidiary, the translated amount of cost of goods sold that should appear in the consolidated income statement is
Answer is C. $56,000
Answer:
$56,000
Explanation:
Data:
Cost of good sold (single) = $50,000
Weighted average rate of the year = $1.12
Cost of good sold consolidated = ???????
Solution:
In order to find the translated amount of cost of goods sold that should appear in the consolidated income statement, we will multiply the cost of goods sold given for Canadian subsidiary with the weighted average rate of the year.
Calculation:
Cost of good sold (consolidated) = $50,000 x $1.12
Cost of good sold (consolidated) = $56,000
A stock has an expected return of 12.6 percent, the risk-free rate is 7 percent, and the market risk premium is 10 percent. What must the beta of this stock be
Answer:
0.56
Explanation:
In this question we used the Capital Asset Pricing Model formula i.e shown below:
As we know that
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × market risk premium
12.6% = 7% + Beta × 10%
12.6% - 7% = Beta × 10%
5.6% = Beta × 10%
So, the beta is
= 5.6% ÷ 10%
= 0.56
Hence, the beta of the stock is 0.56

Answer:
Marshall Inc.
Ratios:
1. Working Capital = Current assets - Current liabilities
= $2,464,000 - 880,000 = $1,584,000
2. Current ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities
= $2,464,000/880,000 = 2.8 : 1
3. Quick ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory)/Current Liabilities
= ($2,464,000 - 420,000)/880,000
= $2,044,000/880,000 = 2.3 : 1
4. Accounts receivable turnover = Average Accounts Receivable / Net Sales
= $542,500/10,850,000 = 0.05 times
Average receivables = ($585,000 + 500,000)/2 = $542,500
5. Number of days' sales in receivables = Days in the year/Accounts receivable turnover
= 365/0.05 = 7,300 days
6. Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Average Inventory
= $6,000,000/400,000 = 15 times
Average Inventory = (Beginning inventory + Ending inventory) / 2
= ($420,000 + 380,000)/2 = $400,000
7. Number of days' sales in inventory = Number of days in a year divided by Inventory turnover ratio = 365 /15 = 24.3 days
8. Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities = Fixed Assets/Long-term Liabilities = $5,760,000/3,200,000 = 1.8 : 1
9. Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity = Total Liabilities/Stockholders' equity = $4,080,000 / $4,944,000 = 0.83 or 80%
10. Times interest earned = Earnings before Interest and Taxes / Interest Expense = $1,152,000/132,000 = 8.7 times
11. Asset turnover = Sales Revenue / Average Total Assets
= $6,000,000/$8,639,000 = 0.7 or 70%
Average Total Assets = Beginning total assets + Ending total assets, all divided by 2
= ($9,024,000 + 8,254,000)/2 = $8,639,000
12. Return on total assets = EBIT/Average Total Assets
= $1,152,000/$8,639,000 = 13%
13. Return on stockholders' equity = Earnings after tax/Shareholders' equity = $600,000/$4,944,000 x 100 = 12%
14. Return on common stockholders' equity = EAT/Common Shareholders' Equity = $600,000 - 10,000/($4,944,000 - 250,000) x 100
= 12.6%
15. Earnings per share (EPS) on common stock = Net Income divided by the number of outstanding common shares = $600,000/100,000 = $6 per share.
16. Price-earnings ratio = Market price of shares/EPS = $82.80/$6 = 13.8
17. Dividends per share of common stock = Dividends/Common Stock shares = $100,000/100,000 shares = $1
18. Dividend yield = Dividend per share / Market price per share = $1/$82.80 = 1.2%
Explanation:
1. Working Capital is the difference between current assets and current liabilities.
2. Current ratio is a liquidity ratio of current assets over current liabilities.
3. Quick ratio is the current ratio modified with the subtraction of inventory.
4. Accounts receivable turnover is an accounting measure that shows how quickly customers pay for the credit sales.
5. Number of days' sales in receivables measures the number of days it takes a company to collect its credit sales. It is a function of the number of days in a year divided by the accounts receivable turnover ratio.
6. Inventory turnover is a ratio showing how many times a company has sold and replaced its inventory during a given period.
7. Number of days' sales in inventory is the result of dividing the days in the period by the inventory turnover formula. It shows the number of days inventory is held before being sold.
8. Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities shows how much of long-term liabilities is represented in fixed assets.
9. Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity is a financial leverage ratio that shows the relationship between liabilities and stockholders' equity.
10. Times interest earned (TIE) ratio measures the ability of a company to settle its debt obligations based on its current income. To calculate the TIE number, take the Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) and divide by the total interest expense.
11. Asset turnover is a ratio of sales over average assets, which shows company's efficiency in using assets to generate sales.
12. Return on total assets measures the percentage of earnings before interest and taxes over the average total assets. It can be obtained by multiplying profit margin with total asset turnover.
13. Return on stockholders' equity is a financial ratio that is calculated by dividing a company's earnings after taxes (EAT) by the total shareholders' equity, and then multiplying the result by 100.
14. Return on common stockholders' equity measures the ratio of earnings after taxes less Preferred Stock Dividend over the common shareholders' equity.
15. Earnings per share on common stock is the ratio of earnings divided by the number of outstanding common stock shares. It measures the earnings per share that the company has generated for the common stockholders.
16. Price-earnings ratio is a ratio of the market price of shares over the earnings per share. It is used to determine if a company's share is overvalued or undervalued.
17. Dividends per share of common stock is the dividend paid divided by the number of outstanding common stock.
18. Dividend yield is the ratio of the dividend per share over the market price per share.
Cost centers are evaluated primarily on the basis of their ability to control costs and:_______.
A) Their return on assets.
B) Residual income.
C) The quantity and quality of the services they provide.
D) Their contribution margin ratio.
Answer:
C.
The quality and quantity of the services they provide
Explanation:
When we talk of cost centers in an organization, we refer to such as departments that does not contribute to the overall profitability of the organization but still cost the organization some amount to operate.
What this means is that although, they give no profit to the organization, they add to the total bill of the organization.
So how do we evaluate them?
Since they are not here for profitability, the measure of how they are relevant to the company is measured on two basis.
They are evaluated on their ability to control costs and also the quality and quantity of the services these centers provide

The difference between actual hours times the actual pay rate and actual hours times the standard pay rate is the labor _________________ variance.
Answer:
"Labor price variance " is the correct choice.
Explanation:
The variation throughout the labor rate represents the distance between real as well as anticipated labor costs. These were measured by taking the difference, based upon the number of additional hourly wages, between some of the real labor amount charged as well as the minimum amount.Absolute variation in the labor rate is equivalent to absolute variation in the price of the commodity.Tropetech Inc. has an expected net operating profit after taxes, EBIT(1 – T), of $2,400 million in the coming year. In addition, the firm is expected to have net capital expenditures of $360 million, and net operating working capital (NOWC) is expected to increase by $45 million. How much free cash flow (FCF) is Tropetech Inc. expected to generate over the next year?
Answer:
FCF = $1,995 million
Explanation:
DATA
EBIT(1-T) = $2,400 million
Net Capital Expenditure = $360 million
Net operating working capital (NOWC) = $45 million
Free cash flow (FCF) expected to generate over next year can be calculated as
FCF = EBIT(1-T) - Capital Expenditure - Net operating working capital (NOWC)
FCF = $2,400 million - $360 million - $45million
FCF = $1,995 million
6. ABC Company announced today that it will begin paying annual dividends next year. The first dividend will be $0.10 a share. The following dividends will be $0.20, $0.30, $0.40, and $0.50 a share annually for the following 4 years, respectively. After that, dividends are projected to increase by 2.0 percent per year. How much are you willing to pay to buy one share of this stock today if your desired rate of return is 8.0 percent
Answer:
The amount willing to pay to buy one share is $6.92.
Explanation:
The announcement by company to pay annual dividend = $0.10
2nd year divident amount = $0.20
3rd year divident amount = $0.30
4th year divident amount = $0.40
5th-year divident amount = $0.50
The increase in dividend = 2 percent.
The desired rate of return = 8%
Value after year 5 = (D5 × Growth rate) / (Required rate-Growth rate)
=(0.5 × 1.02) / (0.08-0.02)
=8.5
Therefore, the current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
=0.1/1.08 + 0.2/1.08^2 + 0.3/1.08^3 + 0.4/1.08^4 + 0.5/1.08^5 + 8.5/1.08^5
=$6.92.

A. Determine the lot al two-year interest cost under each plan.
Interest Cost
Long term fixed-rate plan
Short term variable-rate
B. Which plan is less costly?
1. Long term fixed-rate plan
2. Short-term variable-rate plan
Answer:
A. Total two-year interest cost under long term fixed-rate plan is $195,800; while total two-year interest cost under short term variable-rate is $176,220.
B. Short-term variable-rate plan is less costly.
Explanation:
A. Determine the total two-year interest cost under each plan.
This can be determined for each of the plan as follows:
For Long term fixed-rate plan
Total two-year interest cost under long term fixed-rate plan = Amount required * Interest rate per year * Number of years = $890,000 * 11% * 2 = $195,800
For Short term variable-rate
First year interest cost under short term variable-rate = Amount required * First year interest rate = $890,000 * 7.25% = $64,525
Second year interest cost under short term variable-rate = Amount required * Second year interest rate = $890,000 * 12.55% = $111,695
Total two-year interest cost under short term variable-rate = First year interest cost + Second year interest cost = $64,525 + $111,695 = $176,220
Therefore, we have:
Interest Cost
Long term fixed-rate plan $195,800
Short term variable-rate $176,220
B. Which plan is less costly?
Since the total two-year interest cost under short term variable-rate of $176,220 is less than $195,8000 total two-year interest cost under long term fixed-rate plan, the Short-term variable-rate plan is therefore less costly.
In order to find the future worth, F, from a present amount, P, 5 years from now at an interest rate of 6 % per year, compounded quarterly, what interest rate must be used in the F/P factor, (F/P,i%,n), when n is 20 quarters
Answer:
Interest rate = 1.5%
Explanation:
Given:
Future value = F
Present value = P
Number of Year (n) = 5 year × 4 quarters = 20
Interest rate = 6 % per year = 6 / 4 = 1.5% = 0.015
Computation:
Future value = Present value[tex](1+i)^n[/tex]
F/P = (1+0.015)²⁰
F/P = 1.34685501
When n = 20 quarters
F/P = (1+i)²⁰
1.34685501 = (1+i)²⁰
i = 0.015
Interest rate = 1.5%
A company purchased a commercial dishwasher by paying cash of $5,300. The dishwasher's fair value on the date of the purchase was $5,700. The company incurred $320 in transportation costs, $210 installation fees, and paid a $230 fine for illegal parking while the dishwasher was being delivered. For what amount will the company record the dishwasher
Answer:
$5,830
Explanation:
Relevant data provided
Cash paid = $5,300
Transportation cost = $320
Installation fees = $210
The computation of the amount that will record the dishwasher is shown below:-
Total cost = Cash paid + Transportation cost + Installation fees
= $5,300 + $320 + $210
= $5,830
Therefore for computing the total cost we simply applied the above formula and ignore all other values as they are not relevant.
Westchester Corp. is considering two equally risky, mutually exclusive projects, both of which have normal cash flows. Project A has an IRR of 11%, while Project B's IRR is 14%. When the WACC is 8%, the projects have the same NPV. Given this information, which of the following statements is CORRECT?a. If the WACC is 9%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. b. If the WACC is greater than 14%, Project A's IRR will exceed Project B's. c. If the WACC is 13%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's. e. If the WACC is 6%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.
Answer:
d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the return in which the NPV is zero i.e cash inflows equal to the initial investment
While the WACC refers to the cost of capital by considering the capital structure i.e cost of equity, cost of preferred stock and cost of debt by taking their weightage
Now if the WACC is 9% so project B NPV would be higher as compared to project A as we can see that project B IRR is greater than the project A IRR
Therefore option d is correct

Consumers have become more selective and better informed about their purchases. This macro-environmental force strongly impacts this industry.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
The macro-enviromental forces that impact an industry are: demographic, economic, political, ecological, socio-cultural, and technological.
In this case, we can see the socio-cultural macro-enviromental force at play, and perhaps also the demographic macro-enviromental force.
If consumers have become more selective and better informed about their purchases, it is most likely because they have change their culture or social status. Such a change in consumer behaviour can have great impact on an industry: it can boost some goods, while make other decline or disappear.
Such a change can also respond to demographic shift: for example, as consumers age, they tend to become more selective, so a good that used to be favored by a young population, might not be so anymore when that young population grows older.
If 200,000 machine‐hours are budgeted for variable overhead at a standard rate of $5/machine‐hour, but 220,000 machine‐hours were actually used at an actual rate of $6/machine‐hour, what is the variable overhead efficiency variance?
Answer:
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $100,000 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
200,000 machine‐hours are budgeted for variable overhead at a standard rate of $5/machine‐hour, but 220,000 machine‐hours were used.
To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (200,000 - 220,000)*5
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $100,000 unfavorable
When the Variable overhead efficiency variance is = $100,000 unfavorable
What is the Efficiency variance?
Giving the following information are:
200,000 machine‐hours are budgeted for variable overhead at a standard rate of $5/machine‐hour, but [tex]220,000[/tex] machine‐hours were used. Now we calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, Then we need to use the following formula are below mention.

A waiter fills your water glass with ice water (containing many ice cubes) such that the liquid water is perfectly level with the rim of the glass. As the ice melts,
Answer:
As the ice melts and turns into water, the level of the liquid water will lower and it will no longer be perfectly leveled with the rim of the glass. This happens because water has a unique property, its solid state occupies a larger volume than its liquid state, i.e. as waters turns into ice, it expands and occupies more space. Generally, as liquids become solid, they will shrink and occupy less space, but that doesn't happen with water.
