Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Plum Corporation

(1) current ratio = Current assets/current liabilities

(2) acid-test ratio = (Current asset -Inventory)/Current liabilities

(3) working capital = Current assets minus Current liabilities

(4) acid-test assets = quick assets

May 2 Purchased $75,000 of merchandise inventory on credit.

Current Assets:   $1,400,000 + $75,000 = $1,475,000

Current Liabilities: $737,000 + $75,000 = $812,000

Inventory: $147,000 +$75,000 = $222,000

(1) current ratio = $1,475,000/$812,000

= 1.82:1

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,475,000 - $222,000/$812,000

= 1.54:1

(3) working capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

= $1,475,000 - $812,000

= $663,000

May 8 Sold merchandise inventory that cost $55,000 for $150,000 cash.

Current Assets: $1,475,000 -55,000 + 150,000 = $1,570,000

Current Liabilities: $812,000

Inventory: $222,000 - 55,000 = $167,000

Quick Assets = $1,570,000 - 167,000 = $1,403,000

(1) current ratio = $1,570,000/$812,000

= 1.93

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,403,000/$812,000

= 1.73

(3) working capital = $1,570,000 - $812,000

= $758,000

May 10 Collected $26,000 cash on an account receivable.

Current Assets: $1,570,000 ($26,000 - $26,000) = $1,570,000

Current Liabilities: $812,000

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,570,000 - 167,000 = $1,403,000

(1) current ratio = $1,570,000/$812,000

= 1.93

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,403,000/$812,000

= 1.73

(3) working capital = $1,570,000 - $812,000

= $758,000

May 15 Paid $29,500 cash to settle an account payable.

Current Assets: $1,570,000 - $29,500 = $1,540,500

Current Liabilities: $812,000 - $29,500 = $782,500

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,540,500 - 167,000 = $1,373,500

(1) current ratio = $1,540,500/$782,500

= 1.97:1

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,373,500/$782,500

= 1.76:1

(3) working capital = $1,540,500 - $782,500

= $758,000

May 17 Wrote off a $5,000 bad debt against the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account.

Current Assets: $1,540,500 - $5,000 = $1,535,500

Current Liabilities: $782,500

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,535,500 - 167,000 = $1,368,500

(1) current ratio = $1,535,500/$782,500

= 1.96:1

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,535,500/$782,500

= $1.96:1

(3) working capital = $1,535,500 - $782,500

=$753,000

May 22 Declared a $1 per share cash dividend on its 69,000 shares of outstanding common stock.

Current Assets: $1,535,500

Current Liabilities: $782,500

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,535,500 - 167,000 = $1,368,500

(1) current ratio = $1,535,500/$782,500

= 1.96:1

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,535,500/$782,500

= $1.96:1

(3) working capital = $1,535,500 - $782,500

=$753,000

May 26 Paid the dividend declared on May 22.

Current Assets: $1,535,500 -$69,000 = $1,466,500

Current Liabilities: $782,500

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,466,500 - 167,000 = $1,299,500

(1) current ratio = $1,466,500/$782,500

= 1.87:1

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,299,500/$782,500

= 1.66:1

(3) working capital = $1,466,500 - $782,500

= $684,000

May 27 Borrowed $120,000 cash by giving the bank a 30-day, 10% note.

Current Assets: $1,466,500 + $120,000 = $1,586,500

Current Liabilities: $782,500 + $120,000 = $902,500

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,586,500 - 167,000 = $1,419,500

(1) current ratio = $1,586,500/$902,500

= 1.76

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,419,500/$902,500

= 1.57

(3) working capital = $1,586,500 - $902,500

= $684,000

May 28 Borrowed $135,000 cash by signing a long-term secured note.

Current Assets: $1,586,500 + $135,000= $1,721,500

Current Liabilities: $902,500

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,721,500 - 167,000 = $1,554,500

(1) current ratio = $1,721,500/$902,500

= 1.91:1

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,554,500/$902,500

= 1.72

(3) working capital = $1,721,500 - $902,500

= $819,000

May 29 Used the $255,000 cash proceeds from the notes to buy new machinery.

Current Assets:  $1,721,500 - $255,000 = $1,466,500

Current Liabilities: $902,500

Inventory: 167,000

Quick Assets = $1,466,500 - 167,000 = $1,299,500

(1) current ratio = $1,466,500/$902,500

= 1.62:1

(2) acid-test ratio = $1,299,500/$902,500

= 1.44:1

(3) working capital = $1,466,500 - $902,500

= $564,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

May 1, Current Assets = $1,400,000

Ratio of current assets to current liabilities = 1.90:1

Acid -test ratio = 1.70:1

Therefore, current liabilities = $1,400,000/1.9 = $737,000

Current Assets minus Inventory/$737,000 = 1.7

Therefore, current assets minus inventory = $737,000 * 1.7 = 1,253,000

Inventory = Current Assets - (Current assets -inventory)

= $1,400,000 - $1,253,000

= $147,000

Answers

Answer:

a)

Year                CPI              Nominal Wage (dollars)

2011                 211.7                     $78,520

2012                213.5               = (213.5/211.7) x $78,520 = $79,187.62

2013                223.8              = (223.8/211.7) x $78,520 = $83,007.92

2014                221.1                = (221.1/211.7) x $78,520 = $82,006.48

b) if you annual wage in 2014 was $82,920, it would be equivalent to (211.7/221.1) x $82,920 = $79,394.68 in 2011.

The CPI can be used to calculate equivalent dollars and works both ways, to determine past or future equivalencies.

At the end of the current year, Leer Company reported total liabilities of $315,000 and total equity of $115,000. The company's debt ratio on the last year-end was:

Answers

Answer:

73.26%

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the total assets.

Total assets = Total liabilities + equity

= $315,000 + $115,000

= $430,000

Debt ratio = Total liabilities / Total assets

= 315,000 / 430,000

= 73.26%

Therefore, the company's debt ratio on the last year end is 73.26%

The company has determined the following (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1)Machine A could be purchased for $48,000. It will last 10 years with annual maintenance costs of $1,000 per year. After 10 years the machine can be sold for $5,000.Machine B could be purchased for $40,000. It also will last 10 years and will require maintenance costs of $4,000 in year three, $5,000 in year six, and $6,000 in year eight. After 10 years, the machine will have no salvage value.Required:Assume an interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of money in this situation and that maintenance costs are paid at the end of each year. Ignore income tax considerations. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)Calculate the present value of Machine A & Machine B. Which machine Esquire should purchase?

Answers

Answer: Machine B because it has the lower Present Value

Explanation:

Machine A

= Present Value of income - Present Value of Costs

Present value of Income;

Sold for $5,000 after 10 years.

= 5,000/ (1 + 8%)^10

= $2,315.97

Present Value of Costs;

Purchased for $48,000.

Maintenance of $1,000 per year for  years.

Present value of maintenance= 1,000 * Present value factor of annuity,  10 years, 8%

= 1,000 * 6.7101

= $6,710.10

Machine A Present Value

= 2,315.97 - 6,710.10 - 48,000

= ‭-$52,394

Machine B

No salvage value.

Present Value of costs

Purchased for $40,000.

Present value of maintenance = (4,000 / (1 + 8%)^3)  + (5,000 / ( 1 + 8)^6) + (6,000 / ( 1 + 8%)^8)

= -$9,567.79

Yancey Productions is a film studio that uses a job-order costing system. The company’s direct materials consist of items such as costumes and props. Its direct labor includes each film’s actors, directors, and extras. The company’s overhead costs include items such as utilities, depreciation of equipment, senior management salaries, and wages of maintenance workers. Yancey applies its overhead cost to films based on direct labor-dollars.At the beginning of the year, Yancey made the following estimates:Direct labor-dollars to support all productions $ 8,260,000Fixed overhead cost $ 4,956,000Variable overhead cost per direct labor-dollar $ 0.17Required:1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate. (I found the answer: .77 per DL$)2. During the year, Yancey produced a film titled You Can Say That Again that incurred the following costs:Direct materials $ 1,386,000Direct labor cost $ 2,478,000Compute the total job cost for this particular film.Direct Materials: $1,386,000Direct Labor: $2,478,000

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate is

= Variable overhead cost per direct labor hours + Fixed overhead cost ÷ Direct labor-dollars

= $0.17 + $4,956,000 ÷ 8,260,000

= $0.17 + $0.6

= $0.77

Now the total cost is

= Direct material cost + direct labor cost + manufacturing cost

= $1,386,000 + $2,478,000 + ($2,478,000 × $0.77)

= $5,772,060

SAME AS QUESTION A

A factory costs $290,000. You forecast that it will produce cash inflows of $85,000 in year 1, $145,000 in year 2, and $230,000 in year 3. The discount rate is 10%. a. What is the value of the factory

Answers

Answer:

The value of the factory is $79,909.84

Explanation:

The computation of the value of the factory is shown below:

= Initial investment + annual year cash flows ÷ (1 + rate of return)^number of years

= -$290,000 + $85,000 ÷ (1.10) + $145,000 ÷ (1.10)^2 + $230,000 ÷ (1.10)^3

After solving this, the value of the factory is equivalent to

= $79,909.84

Hence, the value of the factory is $79,909.84

Unemployment Type Rate (Percent) Frictional 3.2 Cyclical 0.0 Structural 1.1 Total unemployment 4.3 True or False: This economy is not currently at its natural rate of unemployment. gs

Answers

Answer: False

Explanation:

The economy is at its Natural rate of Unemployment when Total Unemployment is the result of only Frictional and structural unemployment because Cyclical Unemployment is as a result of the Economic cycle and so is not counted as part of the natural rate.

Here;

Frictional unemployment (3.2) + Structural Unemployment (1.1) = Total Unemployment (4.3)

This economy is at its Natural rate of unemployment.

Given the following information about a fully amortizing loan, calculate the lender’s yield (rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent): loan amount: $166,950; term: 30 years; interest rate: 8%; monthly payment: $1,225.00; discount points: 2.

Answers

Answer:

c. 8.5%

Explanation:

Note: The following is the missing part. Other Closing Expenses: $3,611.  A. 7.7% , B. 8.2%, C. 8.5%, D. 9.1%

Loan = $166,950

Rate = 8%

Life = 30 yrs

Period = 360

Installment = -1,225

Particulars                    Amount

Loan                              $166,950

Less: Discount points   $3339

Less: Closing costs       $3611

Net Borrowing              $160,000

Now, we find the Effective borrowing Rate with the aid of MS Excel

Effective borrowing Rate = Rate(Nper, PMT, PV)

Effective borrowing Rate = Rate(360, -1225, 160000)

Effective borrowing Rate = 0.007044637(Monthly)

Annual Effective rate = 0.007044637 * 12

Annual Effective rate = 0.084535644

Annual Effective rate = 8.4535644%

Annual Effective rate = 8.5%

A lender is a person, a private or government institution, or a major bank that lends money to a person or a company with the anticipation of reimbursement. Repayment of every payment or cost will be included in the repayment.

The correct answer is c. 8.5%

The given information is:

Loan = $166,950

Rate = 8%

Life = 30 yrs

Period = 360

Installment = -1,225

Particulars                    Amount  

Loan                              $166,950  

Less: Discount points   $3339  

Less: Closing costs       $3611  

Net Borrowing             $160,000

Calculation of the  Effective borrowing Rate  

Effective borrowing Rate = Rate(Nper, PMT, PV)

Effective borrowing Rate = Rate(360, -1225, 160000)

Effective borrowing Rate = 0.007044637(Monthly)

Annual Effective rate = [tex]0.007044637 \times 12[/tex]

a. Fethe's Funny Hats is considering selling trademarked, orange-haired curly wigs for University of Tennessee football games. The purchase cost for a 2-year franchise to sell the wigs is $20,000. If demand is good (40% probability), then the net cash flows will be $27,000 per year for 2 years. If demand is bad (60% probability), then the net cash flows will be $6,000 per year for 2 years. Fethe's cost of capital is 13%. What is the expected NPV of the project?

b. If Fethe makes the investment today, then it will have the option to renew the franchise fee for 2 more years at the end of Year 2 for an additional payment of $20,000. In this case, the cash flows that occurred in Years 1 and 2 will be repeated (so if demand was good in Years 1 and 2, it will continue to be good in Years 3 and 4). Write out the decision tree. Note: The franchise fee payment at the end of Year 2 is known, so it should be discounted at the risk-free rate, which is 4%. Use decision-tree analysis to calculate the expected NPV.

Answers

Answer:

A) initial outlay = $20,000

expected cash flows = (40% x $27,000) + (60% x $6,000) = $14,400

NPV = -$20,000 + $14,400/1.13 + $14,400/1.13² = $4,020.68

B)   Fethe acquires franchise $20,000

things go bad, NPV = -$20,000 + $6,000/1.13 + $6,000/1.13² = -$9,991.39. The project is abandoned after the first 2 years.things go well, NPV = -$20,000 + $27,000/1.13 + $27,000/1.13² = $25,038.77. The franchise is renewed for 2 more years.

⇒ since the project continues, the present value of the cash flows are:

year 0 = -$20,000

year 1 = $27,000/1.13 = $23,893.81

year 2 = $27,000/1.13² - $20,000/1.04² = $5,482.03

year 3 = $27,000/1.13³ = $18,712.35

year 4 = $27,000/1.13⁴ = $16,559.61

NPV = $44,647.80

Much has been written about how to identify and interpret signs that indicate that a new organizational form is needed. Grinnell and Apple have identified five signs in addition to those previously described in Section 3.625:Management is satisfied with its technical skills, but projects are not meeting time, cost, and other project requirements.There is a high commitment to getting project work done, but great fluctuation in how well performance specifications are met.Highly talented specialists involved in the project feel exploited and misused.Particular technical groups or individuals constantly blame each other for failure to meet specifications or delivery dates.Projects are on time and to specification, but groups and individuals aren’t satisfied with the achievement. Grinnell and Apple state that there is a good chance that a matrix structure will eliminate or alleviate these problems. Do you agree or disagree? Does your answer depend on the type of project? Give examples or counterexamples to defend your answers.

Answers

Explanation:

I agree that the matrix structure will alleviate these problems encountered.

The matrix structure is a model characterized mainly by its flexibility. The organizational structure of the matrix structure is organized in work groups according to the project being carried out in the company, making the work functions more defined and dynamic, being able to change whenever there are new projects in view.

This structure helps companies to create greater autonomy in carrying out work, increasing coordination and satisfying specialization, which generates greater motivation in employees, increasing participation in the decision-making process, generating more innovation and productivity and the speed with which employees projects are finalized.

Sandy Kupchack just graduated from State University with a bachelor’s degree in history. During her four years at the university, Sandy accumulated $10,000 in student loans. She asks for your help in determining the amount of the quarterly loan payment. She tells you that the loan must be paid back in five years and that the annual interest rate is 8%. Payments begin in three months.

Required:
Determine Sandy's quarterly loan payment.

Answers

Answer: $611.57 or $612 rounded to nearest dollar.

Explanation:

She would have to make a constant payment per quarter which makes it an annuity.

The $10,000 is the present value of the annuity.

The quarters remaining are = 5 years * 4 = 20 quarters

Quarterly interest = 8%/4 = 2%

10,000 = Annuity * Present Value of Annuity factor, 20 periods, 2%

10,000 = Annuity * 16.3514

Annuity = 10,000/16.3514

= $611.57

Dr. Cash                       $$669,387

Dr. Discount on Bond $40,613

Cr. Bond Payable        $710,000

Explanation:

Price of the bond is the present value of all cash flows associated with bond.

Use following formula to calculate the issuance price f the bond

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

As per given data

Face Value = $710,000

Coupon payment = $710,000 x 7.5% x 6/12 = $26,625 semiannually

Number of periods = n = 8 years x 2 period per year = 16 period s

Market interest rate = 8.5% annually = 8.5% / 2  = 4.25% semiannually

PLacing values in the formula

Price of the Bond = $26,625 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 4.25% )^-16 ) / 4.25% ] + [ $710,000 / ( 1 + 4.25% )^16 ]

Price of the Bond = $304,598.24 + $364,788.66 = $669,386.90 = $669,387

Discount on the bond = $710,000- $669,387 = $40,613

Your uncle Abdallah is celebrating his 33th birthday today and wants to start saving for his retirement at the age of 63. He wants to be able to withdraw AED 100,000 from his saving account on each birthday for 20 years following his retirement. The first withdraw will be on his 64th birthday. Your uncle intends to invest his money in a local bank in Abu Dhabi that offers 7% interest rate per year. He wants to make equal payments on each birthday into the account established in the local bank for his retirement fund.
1. If your uncle starts making these deposits on his 33th birthday and continues to make deposits until he is 63, what amount must he deposit annually to be able to make the desired withdrawals at retirement?
2. If your uncle has just inherited a large sum of money, so instead of making equal payments, he has decided to pay one lump sum payment on his 33th birthday to cover his retirement needs. What amount does he have to deposit?
3. If your uncle’s employer informs your uncle that he will contribute AED 1,000 to your uncle account every year. Also, if your uncle expects AED100,000 from another investment on his 53th birthday, which he will also put into the retirement account. What amount must he deposit annually now to be able to make the desired withdrawals at retirement.

Answers

Answer:

we can use the present value of an annuity formula to determine how much money your uncle will need when he retires at 63:

PV = annual distribution x annuity factor

annual distribution = $100,000PV annuity factor, 7%, 20 periods = 10.594

PV = $100,000 x 10.594 = $1,059,400

1) the present value of your uncle's retirement account at 63 will become the future value of his contributions, but this time we need to use the future value of an annuity due. He will make 31 deposits in total starting at age 33 and ending at age 63:

$1,059,400 = annual contribution x 102.07304 (FV annuity due factor, 7%, 31 periods)

annual contribution = $1,059,400 / 102.07304 = $10,359.25

2) we should now use the present value formula:

PV = FV / (1 + i)ⁿ

PV = $1,059,400 / (1 + 0.7)³⁰ = $138,907.59

3) the future value of your uncle's employer contributions = $1,000 x 102.07304 = $102,073.04

his $100,000 investment will be worth = $100,000 x (1 + 0.07)¹⁰ = $196,715.14

that means that your uncle still needs to save $1,059,400 - $102,073.04 - $196,715.14 = $760,611.46

his annual contribution will be:

annual contribution = $760,611.46 / 102.07304 = $7,451.64

The mean value of land and buildings per acre from a sample of farms is ​$1400​, with a standard deviation of ​$200. The data set has a​ bell-shaped distribution. Assume the number of farms in the sample is 74. ​
(a) Use the empirical rule to estimate the number of farms whose land and building values per acre are between ​$1200 and ​$1600.
(b) If 29 additional farms were​ sampled, about how many of these additional farms would you expect to have land and building values between ​$1200 per acre and ​$1600 per​ acre?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The Empirical Rule (or 3 sigma rule) states that for a normal distribution (bell shaped distribution) 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation (μ ± σ), 95% percent within two standard deviations (μ ± 2σ), and 99.7% within three standard deviations from the mean (μ ± 3σ).

Given that the mean (μ) = $1400, standard deviation (σ) = $200

a) The percentage of data within one standard deviation = μ ± σ = (1400 ± 200) = (1200, 1600)

Hence 68% of the land are between ​$1200 and ​$1600.

Number of farms = 68% × number of sample = 0.68 × 74 = 50.23 ≈ 51 farms

b) For an additional 29 farms, the number of additional farms between ​$1200 per acre and ​$1600 per​ acre = 29 × 0.68 ≈ 20 farms

a)The land is between $1200 and $1600. The number of farms is 51, b. The number of additional farms between $1200 per acre and $1600 per acre is 20 farms.

According to the Empirical Rule (or 3 sigma rule), for a normal distribution (bell shaped distribution), 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation (ut o), 95% fall within two standard deviations (u 20), and 99.7% fall within three standard deviations (+30). Given that the mean () is $1400 and the standard deviation () is $200,

a) The percentage of data within one standard deviation=uo=(1400+ 200) (1200, 1600)

Hence 68% of the land are between $1200 and $1600. Number of farms- 68% x number of sample - 0.68 74 50.23 51 farms

b) For an additional 29 farms, the number of additional farms between $1200 per acre and $1600 per acre- 29 x 0.68 = 20 farms.

Answers

Answer:

a. Hulu and Netflix.

Positive. They are close substitutes

Hulu and Netflix both provides television shows, so a consumer can choose between them. They are good substitutes

b. Tortilla chips and salsa.

Negative. They are complements.

Tortilla chips are consumed with salsa sauce. So a demand for salsa increases so does demand for tortilla chips.

c. Movie and popcorn.

Negative. They are complements.

The more people watch movies the more they will want to buy popcorn.

d. Running shoes and high heels

Close to zero. While they are substitutes they are not close substitutes.

Each has its own time of use. Consumers by them independently.

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity is a measure of the quantity demanded of one good to changes in price of another good.

So when a good's demand reduces with increase in price of another it is negative cross price elasticity. This is common with complements.

When quantity demanded of a good increases with increase in price of another, they are substitutes.

However when there is little effect on the quantity demanded with increase in price of the other good they are unrelated
