Marketing by the Numbers: Pricey Sheets
Many luxury sheets cost less than $200 to make but sell for more than $500 in retail stores. Some cost even more consumers pay almost $3,000 for Frett'e "Tangeri Pizzo king-size luxury linens. The creators of a new brand of luxury linens, called Boll & Branch, have entered this market and are determining the price at which to sell their sheets directly to consumers online. They want to price their sheets lower than most brands but still want to earn an adequate margin on sales. The sheets come in a luxurious box that can be reused to store lingerie, jewelry, or other keepsakes. The Boll & Branch brand touts fair trade practices when sourcing its high-grade long staple organic cotton from India. Given the cost information below, refer to Appendix 2: Marketing by the Numbers to answer the following questions.
Cost/King-size Set
Raw Cotton $28.00
Spinning/Weaving/Dyeing $12,00
Cut/Sew/Finishing $10,00
Material Transportation $3,00
Factory Fee $16,00
Inspection and Import Fees $14,00
Ocean Freight/Insurance $5,00
Warehousing $8,00
Packaging $15,00

Customer Shipping $15,00
10-13 Given the cost per king-size sheet set above, and assuming the manufacturer has total fixed costs of $500,000 and estimates first year sales will be 50,000 sets, determine the price to consumers if the company desires a 40 percent margin on sales.
10-14 If the company decides to sell through retailers instead of directly to consumers online, to maintain the consumer price you calculated in the previous question, at what price must it sell the product to a wholesaler who then sells it to retailers? Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10-13 : $277

10-14 : $199.40

Explanation:

10-13

therefore Cost per king-size sheet set will be

$28 + $12 + $10 + $3 + $16 + $14 + $5 + $8 + $15 + $30 + $15 = $ 156

First year sales = 50,000 sets

Total cost = $500,000

Average fixed cost = $500,000/50,000 = $10

Total Cost per king-size sheet set  = ( cost per king-size sheet )$156 + (Average fixed cost ) $10 = $166

Desired margin on sales = 40%

Let us consider the sale price to be $100x

since the margin is 40% of the sales this means margin = (40/100)*100x = 40x

So, cost price should be= $(100 – 40) = $60x

Also, Cost price = $166

which means : $166 = 60x

hence x = 166 / 60 = 2.77

therefore the sale price = ( 100 * 2.77 ) = $277

10 - 14

The Retailer sells to customers at a price of $277  after buying from the wholesaler

The  retailer gets the margin of 20%, therefore the margin of retailer will be = (20/100)*277 = $55.4

Therefore  the price at which retailer will buy the sheet set from the wholesaler will be = $277 ( original price ) - ( 20% of $277) $55.4 = $221.60

While the  Wholesaler sells the sheet set to the retailer for $221.60 and gets the margin of 10%

hence the margin of the wholesaler = 10%*221.60 = $22.16

Then the  wholesaler will get the sheet set at

= $221.6 – $22.16 = $199.40

This the price at which the company will now sell the sheets  to the wholesaler

Environmental recovery company RexChem Partners plans to finance a site reclamation project that will require a 4-year cleanup period. The company will borrow $1.8 million now to finance the project. How much will the company have to receive in annual payments for 4 years, provided it will also receive a final lump sum payment after 4 years in the amount of $800,000? The MARR is 10% per year on its investment

Answer:

We are going to receive annual payment of $395,471

Explanation:

We solve for the present value of the lump-sum today:

PRESENT VALUE OF LUMP SUM

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity  800,000.00

time   4.00

rate  0.1

[tex]\frac{800000}{(1 + 0.1)^{4} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   546,410.76

Now, we deduct this fromthe 1,800,000 loan:

1,800,000 - 546,410.76 = 1,253,589.24

this value will be the amount the yearly installment will ghave to pay.

a. What is the total cash outflow for buying and for leasing a motor vehicle with a cash price of $33,000

Answers

Answer:

For buying = $32,640

For leasing = $31,800

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For buying

Total cash outflow = Down payment + Loan repayment - Value of vehicle at the end of loan

= $5,600 + (780 × 48) - $10,400

= $32,640

For Leasing

Total cash outflow = Down payment + Loan repayment - Value of vehicle at the end of loan

= $2,000 + (600 × 48) - $1,000

= $31,800

Answers

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

The correct answer to this question is the price floor.

The Price floor is the lowest amount that is imposed by the government or group-imposed lowest price limit for a product or service. The government uses the price floor to keep prices at a certain level from going to low. So price floors for workers set by the government that the employer should not pay less than the set amount.

while other options are not correct because::

The price ceiling is the high amount set by the government or the by other groups for a product or service.

An incentive is an amount or something that can be given to employees or someone for motivation or encouraging them to do something.

C)

the effective interest rate is higher under A-1 as the company is paying the same nominal amount of $4,000,000 every six months but, received less cash for the bonds in A-1 case making the effective rate higher .

Explanation:

A-1 issued at 98 points

cash received:

80,000,000 x 98/100 = 78,400,000

discount on bonds: 80,000,000 - 78,400,000 = 1,600,000

On Dec 31st we solve for accrued discoutn and interest:

amortization

1,600,000 / 40 payment = 40,000 per payment

proportional amortization: 40,000 x 4/6 (month accrued) = 26,667

interest paid

principal x rate x time

80,000,000 x 10% x 4/12 = 2,666,667

payment:

8,000,000 x 10% x 6/12 = 4,000,000

proportional amortization: 40,000 x 2/6 (month accrued) = 13,333

accrued interest 8,000,000 x 10% x 2/12 = 1,333,333

A-2  we issue a 101 point

cash received:

80,000,000 x 101/100 = 80,800,000

premuim on bonds: 800,000

On Dec 31st we solve for accrued discount and interest:

amortization

800,000 / 40 payment = 20,000 per payment

proportional amortization: 20,000 x 4/6 (month accrued) = 13,333

interest paid

principal x rate x time

80,000,000 x 10% x 4/12 = 2,666,667

payment:

8,000,000 x 10% x 6/12 = 4,000,000

accrued interest 8,000,000 x 10% x 2/12 = 1,333,333

Your classmates from the University of Chicago are planning to go to Miami for spring break, and you are undecided about whether you should go with them. The round-trip airfare is $600, but you have a frequent-flyer coupon worth $500 that you could use to pay part of the airfare. All other costs for the vacation are exactly $900. The most you would be willing to pay for the trip is $1,400. Your only alternative use for your frequent-flyer coupon is for your trip to Atlanta two weeks after the break to attend your sister's graduation, which your parents are forcing you to attend. The Chicago-Atlanta round-trip airfare is $450. If the Chicago-Atlanta round-trip air fare were $350, should you use the coupon to go to Miami?

Answers

Answer:

You should use the discount coupon to pay for the Chicago-Miami trip. Not considering the personal motivations for the trip, the coupon is worth $500. The cost of flying is $600, so you will only pay $100 yourself. You will be spending $900 + $1000 = $1,000 in total.

The opportunity cost of using the coupon is $350 (the cost of the round trip to Atlanta). Even if you add the $350 to the $1,000 expense, the total is $1,350, less than your $1,400 maximum budget.

Answers

Answer:

$999.60

Explanation:

For computing the selling price i.e. present value we have to use the present value function i.e. shown below:

Given that

NPER = 20 × 2 = 40

PMT = $1,000 × 4.225% ÷ 2 = $21.125

RATE = 4.23% ÷ 2 = 2.115%

FV = $1,000

the formula is shown below:

PV =-PV(RATE;NPER;PMTFV;TYPE)

After applying the above formula, the present value is $999.60

42% and 12%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For Alpha Fund

Positive return = 60%

Lose money is

= 1 - 0.60

= 40%

For Omega Fund

 Positive return = 70%

Lose money is

= 1 - 0.70

= 0.30

Also the returns are non-dependent

Now the positive return is

= 60% × 70

= 42%

And, the probability of lose money is

= 40% × 30%

= 12%

1. Journal to record common stock issued

Account title                                             Debit               Credit

  Cash                                                 $210,400

Common stock                                                           $22,500

Paid in capital in excess of par                                  $187,900

common stock

Calculation:

Cash = 4,500 x $45 + $7900= $210,400

Common stock =4,500 x $5=$22,500

Paid in capital in excess of par common stock = Cash - Common stock =$210,400-$22,500=$187,900

 

2) To reccord Land purchased in exchange of common stock

Paid in capital in excess of par                                     $45,100

common stock

Calculation:

Land= 1,100 x $46 = $50,600

Common stock =1,100 x $5=$5,500

Paid in capital in excess of par common stock = 1100 x (46-5)$41=45,100

Following are several figures reported for Allister and Barone as of December 31, 2015:

Allister Barone
Inventory $50,000 $300,000
Sales 1,000,000 8,00,000
Investment income Not given
Cost of goods sold 500,000 400,000
Operating expenses 230,000 300,000

Allister acquired 90 percent of Barone in January 2020. In allocating the newly acquired subsidiary's fair value at the acquisition date, Allister noted that Barone had developed a customer list worth $66,000 that was unrecorded on its accounting records and had a six-year remaining life. Any remaining excess fair value over Barone's book value was attributed to goodwill. During 2021, Barone sells inventory costing $135,000 to Allister for $190,000. Of this amount, 20 percent remains unsold in Allister's warehouse at year-end.

Determine balances for the following items that would appear on Allister's consolidated financial statements for 2015:

a. Inventory
b. Sales
c. Cost of Goods Sold
d. Operating Expenses
e. Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest

Answers

Answer:

a. $344,500

b. $1,610,000

c. $405,500

d. $530,000

e. $9,550 loss

Explanation:

First, Eliminate the Intragroup transactions as follows :

Elimination Journal for the Intragroup Sale :

Sales (Barone) $190,000 (debit)

Cost of Sales (Allister) $190,000 (credit)

Elimination of unrealized profit in closing inventory :

Cost of Sales (Barone)  $5,500 (debit)

Inventory (Allister)  $5,500 (credit)

Unrealized Profit in Inventory ($190,000 - $135,000) × 10% = $5,500

Then, Consolidate the Financial Statements taking into account the elimination journals

Note : Consolidation is 100% of Parent + 100% of Subsidiary.

Note : A firm that is exercising control (> 50% Voting Rights) is required to prepare Consolidated Financial Statements - IFRS 3.

Consolidated Income Statement

Sales (1,000,000 + 8,00,000 - $190,000)                                 $1,610,000

Cost of Sales ( $500,000 + 400,000 - $190,000 + $5,500)     ($715,500)

Gross Profit                                                                                   $894,500

Less Operating Expenses ($230,000 + $300,000)                  ($530,000)

Net Income                                                                                    $364,500

Consolidated Financial Statement (Extract)

Inventory ($50,000 + $300,000 - $5,500)                                 $344,500

Subsidiary Profit

Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest

Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest = Net Subsidiary Income × % Non Controlling Interest

Net Subsidiary Income - Barone

Sales (800,000 - 190,000)                                  $610,000

Less Cost of Sales ( 400,000 + 5,500)            ($405,500)

Gross Profit                                                          $204,500

Less Operating Expenses                                 ($300,000)

Net Income/ (loss)                                                ($95,500)

Therefore,

Net Income Attributable to Non-controlling Interest = ($95,500) × 10%

                                                                                      = $9,550 loss

Answers

Answer:

the question is missing the numbers, so I looked for a similar question:

Suppose you receive $100 at the end of each year for the next three years. a. If the interest rate is 8%, what is the present value of these cash flows? (Answer: $257) b. What is the future value in three years of the present value you computed in (a)? (Answer: $324.61) c. Suppose you deposit the cash flows in a bank account that pays 8% interest per year. What is the balance in the account at the end of each of the next three years (after your deposit is made)? How does the final bank balance compare with your answer in (b)?

a) PV = $100/1.08 + $100/1.08² + $100/1.08³ = $257.71

b) FV = $257.71 x (1 + 8%)³ = $324.64

c) FV = ($100 x 1.08²) + ($100 x 1.08) + $100 = $324.64

it is exactly the same as the answer for (b)

In early 2016, the same Germany machinery company has interest from four prospective clients from emerging markets: Indonesia, Brazil, Russia, and South Africa. They all want to buy ten machines, but the factory can only produce ten in time. Therefore, the company has to choose only one client. Given the volatility of the domestic currencies of the four prospective clients, the CFO would like to choose the client which is least likely to cancel the order due to currency volatility. The invoice comes due on June 30, 2016. According to volatility alone, which prospective client would be most likely to cancel the order?

Answers

Answer:

Brazil

Explanation:

According to the picture below, Brazilian real is the currency that has the lowers currency volatility, its spot is 4.0685, and its forward is 4.1820. These values are way lower than the values of the other three currencies, and for this reason, the CFO should choose the Brazilian client, clearly.

Indonesia is the country that is most likely to cancel this order. This is due to its high volatility.

Following the volatility chart that is attached to this question we can clearly spot that Indonesia has the most likelihood to cancel the order.

The volatility of the currency of the country Indonesia is shown to be high and this high volatility is very much going to have an impact on trade.

When there is a weakness in the currency of a nation, the cost of import would go up.

The Aleutian Company uses departmental overhead rates. The Fabrication Department uses machine hours for an allocation base, and the Assembly Department uses labor hours. What is the Assembly Department overhead rate per labor hour

Answers

Answer:

$4.425 per labor hour

Explanation:

Note: The full question has been attached as picture

Product Rings Labor Hours = 1030 units x 4 labor hours per unit

Product Rings Labor Hours = 4,120 hours

Product Dings Labor Hours = 1810 units x 7 Labor hour per unit

Product Dings Labor Hours = 12,670 hours

Hence, the total Labor Hours = 4,120 hours + 12,670 hours = 16,790 hours

The total Assembly Department Overhead is estimated to be $74,300. Hence, the Assembly Department Overhead rate per labor hour = Total Overhead / Total Labor Hours

Assembly Department Overhead rate = $74,300 / 16,790

Assembly Department Overhead rate = $4.425

The following data are from an experiment that measured the toxicity of the blue substance. A single drop of the liquid extracted from blue termites was placed on individuals of a second termite species, Labiotermes labralis, and the number that were immobilized (dead or paralyzed) within 60 minutes was recorded. The frequency of this outcome was compared with a control treatment in which liquid from glands of "white" termites lacking the blue crystals was dropped instead.
