Organization Weighs Use of Open Source Software. You began operating a small general electric contracting company two years ago. Originally, it was just you and your cousin, but it has grown to five licensed electricians, plus one office manager who takes calls from customers, schedules the work, and orders parts and supplies. Your company handles a wide range of work, including installing new circuit breaker panels, rewiring existing electrical systems for renovations and additions, and installing residential light fixtures, security lighting systems, swimming pool lighting, and ceiling fans. Business has really taken off, and your current manual systems and procedures can no longer keep pace. The office manager has been exploring several options and has identified three different software packages designed for small contractors. Each one of the packages includes software designed for managing parts and supplies inventory, scheduling jobs, and invoicing customers. One of the packages also provides the capability to perform accounts receivable and accounts payable functions. Two of the software packages are from large, well-known companies, and both have an initial licensing cost of roughly $550 plus $100 per year for software support. The other software package is open-source software, with no initial cost and no support cost. The office manager is unsure how to proceed, but has your agreement to spend up to $1000 on new software.
Which one of the following should be your next step?
a. Define the basic business functions that you need the software to be able perform.
b. Determine the date by which you need the new software installed and operational.
c. Talk to your cousin Vinnie who is an accountant in a large manufacturing firm.
d. Set an exact limit on how much you are willing to spend on office software.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Define the basic business functions that you need the software to be able to perform.

Explanation:

The main function of a business needs to be determined so that business strategy can be formulated. The office manager has made an agreement to spend up to $1000 on the new software. It is now required to determine the basic functions which are needed in the new software for business functioning.

The Fisher equation tells us that the real interest rate approximately equals the nominal rate minus the inflation rate. Suppose the inflation rate increases from 3% to 5%. Does the Fisher equation imply that this increase will result in a fall in the real rate of interest

Answers

The Fisher equation does not imply that the increase in inflation will result in a fall in the real rate of interest.

The Fisher equation states the nominal interest rate in the sum of inflation rate and the real interest rate

(1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + real interest rate) x (1 + inflation rate)

Based on the above equation, an increase in inflation rate would lead to a rise in the nominal interest rate. The real interest rate is taken as given in the equation and it is not affected by changes in inflation rate. If inflation rate increases from 3% to 5%, the nominal rate of interest would increase by about 2%.

The Osgood county refuse department runs two recycling centers. Center 1 costs $40 to run for an eight hour day. In a typical day, 140 pounds of glass and 60 pounds of aluminum are deposited at Center 1. Center 2 costs $50 for an eight hour day, with 100lbs of glass and 180lbs of aluminum deposited per day. The county has a commitment to deliver at least 1540lbs of glass and 1440lbs of aluminum per week. How many days per week should the county open each center to minimize its cost and still meet the requirements?

Answers

Answer:

Center 1 should be open 7 days a week, and center 2 should be open 6 days a week. Total cost = $580

Explanation:

minimize the following equation 40A + 50B

where:

A = center 1

B = center 2

constraints:

140A + 100B ≥ 1540

60A + 180B ≥ 1440

A ≤ 7

B ≤ 7

A, B ≥ 0

using Solver, the optimal solution is 7A + 6B = 580

A production department's output for the most recent month consisted of 8,800 units completed and transferred to the next stage of production and 5,800 units in ending Work in Process inventory. The units in ending Work in Process inventory were 50% complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion costs. Calculate the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method.

Answers

Answer:

11,700 units

Explanation:

Calculation for the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method

Unit completed and transferred to the next stage 8,800 units

Add Unit in ending goods in process inventory 2,900 units

(5,800 units*50%)

Equivalent units of production 11,700 units

(8,800 units+2,900 units)

Therefore the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method will be 11,700 units

You are a supplier of printed circuit boards (PCBs). Production of the circuit boards consists of several steps – Surface Mounting, Baking, and Final Assembly. Surface Mounting puts integrated circuits (ICs) and other components on a PCB. These PCBs are then Baked as a batch and kept in an oven for some time so that the ICs are soldered onto the PCBs. Finally, these PCBs are taken and manually assembled into a case, and wired with connectors. The processing rate at the Surface Mounting station is 15 PCBs/minute, the processing rate for Baking is 5 PCBs/minute, and the processing rate for Final Assembly is 3 PCBs/minute. If there are on average 24 units of (work in process) inventory and the system is working at capacity, what is the flow (throughput) time for PCBs?

Answers

Answer:

the flow (throughput) time for PCBs is 40 units per minute

Explanation:

Given that;

Work in progress WIP = 24

we calculate the time spent to make the PCBs, lead time

Processing rate at the Surface Mounting station is 15 PCBs/minute

so time taken by a single PCB at the SM operation = 1/15 min

Processing rate for Baking is 5 PCBs/minute

so time taken by a single PCB at the baking operation = 1/5 min

the processing rate for Final Assembly is 3 PCBs/minute

so time taken by a single PCB at the assembly = 1/3 min

∴ total time taken will be;

(1/15) + (1/5) + (1/3)

= 0.6 min

Now, using Little's Law;

Working in progress WIP = throughput × lead time

Throughput = WIP / Lead time

so we substitute

Throughput = 24 / 0.6 min

Throughput = 40 units per minute

Therefore the flow (throughput) time for PCBs is 40 units per minute

a) $176,358 underapplied.
b) $176,358 overapplied.
c) $187,298 underapplied
d) $187.298 overapplied.

Answers

Answer:

c) $187,298 underapplied

Explanation:

The computation of the overhead or underapplied overhead is shown below:

But before that the predetermined overhead, applied manufacturing overhead need to be computed

Predetermine overhead rate is

= Estimated factory overhead ÷ estimated machine hours

= $2,100,000 ÷ 51,000

= $41.18

Now the applied overhead is

= Actual machine hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 48,900 × $41.18

= $2,013,702

A) $6,000 negative
B) $6,000 positive
C) $5,000 positive
D) $7,000 negative

Answers

Answer:

D) $7,000 negative

Explanation:

What amount of net cash flow would be shown in the financing section of the statement of cash flows?

Amount of net cash flow to be shown in the financing section of the statement of cash flows = Decrease in Account payable - Increase in accrued liabilities + Borrow of new  long term notes payable - Repayment of long term notes payable

= -$2,000 + $1,000 + $34,000 - $40,000

= -$7,000

D) Greater than $30,000 but less than or equal to $35,000
E) Greater than $35,000

Answers

Answer:

A) Less than or equal to 30,000

A) Less than or equal to $365,000

B) Make the part

E) Greater than $35,000

Explanation:

Capital equipment cost = $100000

Annual requirement = 15000

Supply cost per piece = $17.25

In-house production cost per piece = $11

Contract preparation cost = $2100

If quantity at beatk even = x

In-house production = purchase cost

100000 + 11x = 2100 + 17.25x

100000 - 2100 = 17.25x - 11x

97900 = 6.25x

x = break-even quantity = 15664

Cost at breakeven:

100000 + 11(15664)

= 272,304

If demand = 25000 units:

In-house production :

100000 + 11(25000) = 375000

Purchase cost:

2100 + 17.25(25000)

2100 + 431250 = $433,350

The correct decision is to make the part, it is cheaper

Amount saved:

$433,350 - $375,000 = $58,350

The Sisyphean Company's common stock is currently trading for $25.00 per share. The stock is expected to pay a $2.50 dividend at the end of the year and the Sisyphean Company's equity cost of capital is 14%. If the dividend payout rate is expected to remain constant, then the expected growth rate in the Sisyphean Company's earnings is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

4%

Explanation:

The Gordon constant growth dividend model =

Value = dividend / cost of capital - growth rate

Subsisting with the values given in the question gives :

25 = 2.5/0.14 - g

To solve for g,

1. multiply both sides by 0.14 - g

25(0.14 -g) = 2.5

2. divide both sides by 25

0.14 - g = 0.10

g = 0.04 = 4%

You believe that Oklahoma Logistics and Transport (OLT) is comparable to TT in terms of its underlying business, but OLT has no debt. OLT has a P/E of 12.5 and an enterprise value to EBITDA multiple of 7. Based upon the enterprise value to EBITDA ratio, the value of a share of Texas Trucking is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

$33.00 per share

Explanation:

Calculation to the value of a share of Texas Trucking

Using this formula

Enterprise value = EBITDA × multiple

Let plug in the formula

Enterprise value = $45 × 7 = $315

Enterprise value=$315- $150

Enterprise value=$165

Enterprise value=$165/5 million share

Enterprise value = $33.00 per share

Therefore the value of a share of Texas Trucking is closest to:$33.00 per share

Consider the following process that makes customized suits. When an order is placed, measurement is taken, which takes 30 minutes to complete. After taking the measurement, materials are prepared and cut, and this takes one hour. Once the materials are prepared and cut, the materials are sewed. Sewing takes 2.5 hours on average per order. The process operates for 10 hours a day. The following picture summarizes the process.
1. What is the capacity of the process in [suits/day]?
2. Assume that the demand for the customized suit is 0.2[suits/hour]. What should the flow rate of the process be in [suits/day]?
3. Assume that the demand for the customized suit is 0.5[suits/hour]. What is the implied utilization (in %) of the Sewing stage?
4. Assume that the demand for the customized suit is 0.5[suits/hour]. What is the utilization (in %) of the Measuring stage?

Answers

Answer:

1. The capacity of the process

= 2.5 suits /day

2. The flow rate of the process = 2.5 suits/10 hours

= 0.25 suits per hour

3. The implied utilization of the Sewing stage = (0.5 * 150 minutes  * 4) 300 minutes = 5/10

=  50%

4. The utilization of the Measuring stage = (0.5 * 30 minutes  * 4) 60 minutes =  1/10

= 10%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Time taken for the measurement of a suit = 30 minutes

Time for preparation and cutting of materials = 60 minutes (1 hour)

Time for sewing = 150 minutes (2.5 hours or 2 hours, 30 minutes)

Total time taken to make a suit = 4 hours

Available production time per day = 600 minutes (6 hours)

Therefore, 6/4 suits can be produced per day, this equals 2.5 suits.

Drussden Inc., a multinational corporation, has decided to hire military veterans.

In implementing this recruiting strategy, Drussden Inc. should expect:
a. an increase in expenses as the company will need to pay a much higher compensation to these employees.
b. to have a more rigid and harsh workplace environment than before.
c. to require sufficient time for training their HR personnel on how to appropriately interview these potential employees.
d. a significant decrease in its hiring-related costs

Answers

Answer:

c. to require sufficient time for training their HR personnel on how to appropriately interview these potential employees.

Explanation:

Most organizations lack a veteran recruiting program. There are several misconceptions about veterans working in private companies especially regarding their mental state. It is true that a percentage, about 10-20%, experience some type of PTSD, but it generally is not something permanent. Also, former military personnel are normal people that served their country. They have some skill sand some preparation that even though might be unrelated to a specific, might be very useful. For example, many companies hire veterans because they are adaptable, flexible, react well under pressure and tend to find solutions to problems. They didn't learn this in any school, instead they learned this on the battle field. Many veterans also have a lot of experience with solving problems and presenting clear information.

This doesn't mean that they will earn a higher salary, or that they will turn the office into a military headquarter. Many companies higher them for their flexibility and how well they adapt and react to change. The problem is that not enough companies actually have veteran recruiting programs that will help both the companies and the veterans.

On January 1, 2021, American Corporation purchased 30% of the outstanding voting shares of Short Supplies common stock for $222,000 cash. On that date, Short's book value and fair value were both $740,000. The equity method is deemed appropriate for this investment. Short's net income reported on December 31, 2021, was $70,000.

Required:
Compute the amount that would be reported for the investment on American Corporation's financial statements at December 31, 2021. what is investment amount?

Answers

Answer:

the  amount that should be reported for the investment is $237,300

Explanation:

The computation of the amount that should be reported for the investment is as follows:

= Original investment + net income share - cash dividend

= $222,000 + ($70,000 × 30%) - ($19,000 × 0.30)

= $222,000 + $21,000 - $5,700

= $237,300

hence, the  amount that should be reported for the investment is $237,300
