Answer:
$5.272
Explanation:
The computation of the standard cost of the ingredients for one gallon of wine is shown below:-
But before that we need to do the following calculations
3,360 ounces of grape concentrate at $0.02 per ounce is (Considering 4%)
= 3,360 × $0.02 ÷ 96%
= $70
54 pounds of granulated sugar at $0.55 per pound is (Considering 10%)
= 54 × $0.55 ÷ 90%
= $33
60 lemons at $0.90 each is (Considering 25%)
= 60 × $0.90 ÷ 75%
= $72
150 yeast tablets at $0.26 each is
= 160 × $0.26
= $41.6
250 nutrient tablets at $0.14 each is
= 250 × $0.14
= $35
2,400 ounces of water at $0.005 per ounce is
= 2,400 × $0.005
= $12
Therefore 50 gallon cost is = $70 + $33 + $72 + $41.6 + $35 + $12
= $263.6
So, cost per gallon = $263.6 ÷ 50
= $5.272

Calculate the company’s long term risk and capital structure positions at the end of 2015 and 2014 by computing the following ratios.
(1) Debt and equity ratios.
(2) Debt to equity ratios.
Answer:
(1) Debt and equity ratios. (I guess the years should be 2017 and 2016)
debt ratio = liabilities / assets
equity ratio = stockholder's equity / assets
debt ratio 2016 = $155,750 / $411,250 = 37.87%
debt ratio 2017 = $202,575 / $484,000 = 41.85%
equity ratio 2016 = $255,500 / $411,250 = 62.13%
equity ratio 2017 = $281,425 / $484,000 = 58.15%
(2) Debt to equity ratios. (2017 and 2016)
debt to equity ratio = liabilities / stockholders' equity
debt to equity ratio 2016 = $155,750 / $255,500 = 60.96%
debt to equity ratio 2017 = $202,575 / $281,425 = 71.98%
Explanation:
average liabilities 2017 = ($129,900 + $75,250 + $98,500 + $101,500) / 2 = $202,575
average liabilities 2016 = ($75,250 + $51,250 + $101,500 + $83,500) / 2 = $155,750
average assets 2017 = ($523,000 + $445,000) / 2 = $484,000
average assets 2016 = ($445,000 + $377,500) / 2 = $411,250
average stockholders' equity 2017 = $484,000 - $202,575 = $281,425
average stockholders' equity 2016 = $411,250 - $155,750 = $255,500

The Whistling Straits Corporation needs to raise $74 million to finance its expansion into new markets. The company will sell new shares of equity via a general cash offering to raise the needed funds. The offer price is $45 per share and the company's underwriters charge a spread of 6 percent. If the SEC filing fee and associated administrative expenses of the offering are $825,000, how many shares need to be sold? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)
Answer:
1,768,913 new stocks
Explanation:
the company needs to raise amount needed to finance expansion plus SEC's filing and administrative fees = $74,000,000 + $825,000 = $74,825,000
net amount received per stock issued = stock price x (1 - underwriting fee) = $45 x (1 - 6%) = $42.30 per stock
the company needs to issue = $74,825,000 / $42.30 per stock = 1,768,912.53 = 1,768,913 new stocks
Sheffield Corporation purchased machinery on January 1, 2017, at a cost of $250,000. The estimated useful life of the machinery is 4 years, with an estimated salvage value at the end of that period of $24,000. The company is considering different depreciation methods that could be used for financial reporting purposes.Required:Prepare separate depreciation schedules for the machinery using the straight-line method, and the declining-balance method using double the straight-line rate.
Answer and Explanation:
(A) Depreciation Schedules Under Straight line method
Depreciation rate under straight line method = 1 ÷ Useful life of asset
= 1 ÷ 4
=25%
Depreciable cost = Cost of the Asset - Salvage value
= $250,000 - $24000
= $226,000

2020 $226,000 25% $565,00 $226,000 $24,000
($80,500 - $56,500)
For computing the annual depreciation we simply multiply the depreciable cost with depreciation rate.

2020 $31,250 $7,250 $226,000 $24,000
For computing the annual depreciation expenses we simply multiply the book value beginning of the year with depreciation rate.
2020 Depreciation balance
= Book Value beginning 2020 - Salvage value
= $31,250 - $24,000
= $7,250

The Wheel Division has been selling 500,000 wheels per year to outside buyers at $60 each. Capacity is 700,000 wheels per year. The Van Division has been buying wheels from outside suppliers at $56 per wheel.
(a) Calculate the net benefit (or cost) to the Wheel Division of accepting the offer from the Van Division.
(b) Calculate the net benefit (or cost) to Motocar Corp. if the Wheel Division accepts the offer from the Van Division.
Answer:
A. Profit per wheel = $8
B. Total benefit to Motor Corp. = $4,320,000
Explanation:
Requirement A
We can calculate the net benefit/cost to the wheel division of accepting the offer from van division by deducting all the variable cost from the selling price offered by van division
Selling price = $40
Direct material = $15
Direct labor = $11
Variable Overhead = $6
Profit per wheel = $8
Requirement B Net benefit to Motor car corp.
Increased the profit of wheel division by accepting the offer
180,000 x $8 =$1,440,000
Savings of van division by placing an order to wheel division
180,000 x $16(w) = $2,880,000
Total benefit to Motor Corp. = $1,440,000 + $2,880,000
Total benefit to Motor Corp. = $4,320,000

Federal Income Taxes Payable $336,000
Advances on Magazine Subscriptions $1,593,750
Total Current Liabilities $1,929,750
Explanation:
Federal Income Taxes Payable
This is a current Liability as it falls under a period of a year. As March ends the first quarter, the quarterly tax is;
= 840,000 x 40%
= $336,000
Advances on Magazine Subscriptions
They are to deliver monthly subscriptions for 12 months to the tune of 25,000 copies which they have already been paid for. Under the Accrual system they cannot recognize this as revenue until they have fulfilled their obligation to deliver the magazines and until then, they are current Liabilities. As of end of March, they have fulfilled their obligations for 3 months leaving 9 in the year.
= 25,000 x $85 x 9/12
=$1,593,750
One of the problems with licensing as a method of achieving international business is that it is a much more difficult procedure to implement than the other methods.

A company would like to evaluate two incentive schemes that take effect once the worker exceeds standard performance. In the first case the benefits are split 30% to the worker and 70% to the company up to 120% performance. If the worker exceeds 120% performance, all of the earnings go to the worker. In the second case, all earnings beyond standard performance are split 50/50 between the worker and the company.
a. Plot the earnings for each scheme.
b. Derive the equations for worker earnings and normalized unit labor costs for each scheme
c. Find the point at which the two plans break even.
d. Which do you think would the company prefer?
Answer:
B) plan 1 : worker earning y = x - 0.14 , unit labor = [tex]\frac{x-(0.14)}{x}[/tex]
plan 2 : worker earning y = 0.5x + 0.5, unit labor = (0.5x + 0.5) / x
C) At 128%
D ) plan D IS PREFERABLE
Explanation:
In the first case Benefits are split : 30% to worker , 70% to company ( up to 120% ) performance
In the second case benefits 50% go to the worker and 50% go the company
B) The equations for worker earnings and normalized unit labor costs for each scheme
Plan 1 :
y ( percentage earning of worker ) = 1
unit labor cost = Y / 1
y = 0 - 30
unit labor = 0.3 / x
y = x - 0.14 therefore unit labor = [tex]\frac{x-(0.14)}{x}[/tex]
plan 2 :
y ( percentage earning of worker ) = 1, y = 0.5x + 0.5
unit labor cost : Y / 1 = (0.5x + 0.5) / x
C ) The point at which the two plans break even
0.5x + 0.5 = x - 0.14
0.5 + 0.14 = x - 0.5x
0.64 = x(1 - 0.5 )
x = 0.64 / 0.5 = 1.28 = 128%
D) The company would prefer plan 1

A production department’s beginning inventory cost includes $478,000 of conversion costs. This department incurs an additional $1,047,500 in conversion costs in the month of March. Equivalent units of production for conversion total 770,000 for March.Required:Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of conversion using the weighted-average method.
Answer: $1.98
Explanation:
Equivalent Units of Production are used when the manufacturers have not completely finished their products for the year. This helps them express it in terms of fully manufactured units.
Using the weighted average method, the cost per equivalent unit is;
= [tex]\frac{Beginning inventory cost + Cost of current production}{Equivalent units of production}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{478,000 + 1,047,500}{770,000}[/tex]

The Andrews Company has just purchased $55,736,000 of plant and equipment that has an estimated useful life of 15 years. The expected salvage value at the end of 15 years is $5,573,600. What will the book value of this purchase (exclude all other plant and equipment) be after its third year of use? (Use FASB GAAP)
Answer:
Book value = $45,703,520
Explanation:
We can calculate the book value of purchase after its third year of use by deducting all three years of depreciation from the cost of the asset.
DATA
Purchase cost = $55,736,000
Useful life = 15 years
Salvage value = $5,573,600
Solution
Book value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation
Book value = $55,736,000 - $10,032,480(w)
Book value = $45,703,520
Working
Depreciation per year = [tex]\frac{Cost-salvagevalue}{life}[/tex]
Depreciation per year = [tex]\frac{55,736,000-5,573,600}{15}[/tex]
Depreciation per year = $3,344,160
Depreciation for 3 years = $3,344,160 x 3
Depreciation for 3 years = $10,032,480
Three years accumulated depreciation for three years would be $10,032,480

a. Assuming that the desired rate of return is 15%, determine the net present value for the proposal. If required, round to the nearest dollar. Use the table of the present value of $1 presented above.
Present value of net cash flow $
Amount to be invested
Net present value $
b. Would management be likely to look with favor on the proposal?
Yes , because the net present value indicates that the return on the proposal is greater than the minimum desired rate of return of 15%.
Answer:
year net cash flow
0 -$150,000
1 $80,000
2 $65,000
3 $50,000
4 $40,000
A) NPV = -$150,000 + ($80,000 x .87) + ($65,000 x .756) + ($50,000 x .658) + ($40,000 x .572) = -$150,000 + $69,600 + $49,140 + $32,900 + $22,880 = -$150,000 + $174,520 = $24,520
B) Yes , because the net present value indicates that the return on the proposal is greater than the minimum desired rate of return of 15%. Since the NPV is positive ($24,520), it means that the cash inflows are higher than the cash outflows when we use a 15% discount rate.
"A broker-dealer who acted as financial advisor to a municipality in structuring a new issue now wishes to act as underwriter in a negotiated offering. Which statement is TRUE?"
Answer:
B. The financial advisor is prohibited from acting as the underwriter
Explanation:
As per the rule of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, the financial advisor cannot be the underwriter.
The financial advisor for a municipality is paying the advisory fee for assisting the structure of the municipality in order to the issuance of the new bond so that the less interest cost to be paid.
But in the case of the underwriter, it contains high rate of interest as it is very easiest way for selling
So through this, the conflict arises between these two parties
Therefore option B is correct

Explanation:
15. Karla Salons leased equipment from Smith Co. on July 1, 2021, in a finance lease. The present value of the lease payments discounted at 10% was $81,100. Ten annual lease payments of $12,000 are due each year beginning July 1, 2021. Smith Co. had constructed the equipment recently for $66,000, and its retail fair value was $81,100. What amount of interest revenue from the lease should Smith Co. report in its December 31, 2021, income statement
Answer: $3,455
Explanation:
The interest received by Smith can be calculated as;
Interest Value = Present value of lease payment * interest rate
Present Value of interest rate
Ten annual lease payments of $12,000 are due each year beginning July 1, 2021.
That means first payment has been made already. Present value is;
= 81,100 - 12,000
= $69,100
Only half a year has gone by so this will need to be reflected;
Interest Value = Present value of lease payment * interest rate
= 69,100 * 10% * 6/12
= $3,455
