Special Order Poppy has received a special order for 1,000 units of its product at a special price of $125. The product currently sells 18,000 units for $150 and has the following manufacturing costs:

Per unit Direct materials $45
Direct labor 30
Variable manufacturing overhead 35
Fixed manufacturing overhead 25
Unit cost $135

Assume that Poppy has sufficient capacity to fill the order without harming normal production and sales.

a. If Poppy accepts the order, what effect will the order have on the company’s short-term profit?
b. If Poppy accepts the order and fills it completely, what effect will the order have on the company’s short-term profit?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

1) Because it is a special offer, and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs:

Effect on income= 1,000*125 - 1,000*(45 + 30 + 35)

Effect on income= $15,000

2) Now, the company doesn't have unused capacity. It only has 500 units in excess. We have to take into account the fixed costs and the original selling price of the units.

Effect on income= 1,000*125 - 1,000*(45 + 30 + 35) - 500*(25 + 25)

Effect on income= -$10,000

A 10,000 par value bond with coupons at 8%, convertible semiannually, is being sold three years and four months before the bond matures. The purchase will yield 6%convertible semiannually to the buyer. The price at the most recent coupon date, immediately after the coupon payment, was 5,640.Calculate the market (quoted) price of the bond.

Answers

Answer:

$9,124.94

Explanation:

the clean price of the bond two months ago was $5,640.

Currently, interest rate have changed and the price of the bond has changed:

the semiannual yield is 4%, that means that the bimonthly yield = 1.04 = (1 + r)³

1 + r = 1.0132

r = 0.0132

the current price of the bond:

PV of face value = $10,000 / (1 + 0.0132)²⁰ = $7,693.01

PV of coupon payments = ($300 x {[1 - (1 + 0.04)⁻⁶] / 0.04}) / (1 + 0.0132)² = $1,572.64 / (1 + 0.0132)² = $1,531.93

minus accrued interests (dirty price) = $300 x 1/3 = $100

Market value of bond = $9,124.94

 = ( 273 / ( 1 + 0.1 ) 4 ) - 2000    = 248 yen

Marketing managers from two companies agree that competing to offer the lowest prices has been hurting their profit margins, so they agree on the prices they will charge for some of their key products. What illegal pricing behavior is this? O A. Price discrimination O B. Deceptive pricing C. Price fixing O D. Price gouging​

Answers

Price fixing is the  illegal pricing behaviour is this. Hence, option C is correct.

What is Price fixing?

A written, verbal, or conduct-based agreement to raise, lower, maintain, or stabilize prices or price levels is known as price fixing. Antitrust laws typically mandate that each business establish prices and other competitive terms independently, without consulting a rival.

Competitors who agree to raise, cut, or stable prices are said to have engaged in horizontal price fixing. For instance, a horizontal agreement between two rival fast-food establishments selling hamburgers on the sale pricing of cheeseburgers is prohibited by antitrust rules.

Price fixing is an anticompetitive agreement between players on the same side of a market to buy or sell a good, service, or commodity solely at a set price, or to keep the market's dynamics in such a way that the price is kept at a fixed level.

Thus, option C is correct.

Compute the weight of common equity that should be used in the firm's WACC calculation if the market value of the firm's debt is $62 million, the market value of the firm's preferred stock is $7 million and the market value of the firm's common equity is $111 million. Enter your answer as a decimal (i.e. 0.54)

Answers

Answer:

0.62 or 62 %

Explanation:

Weight of common equity = Market Value of Equity ÷ Total Market Value of Sources of Finance

where,

Market Value of Equity = $111 million

Total Market Value of Sources of Finance = $62 million + $7 million  + $111 million = $180 million

therefore,

Weight of common equity = $111 million ÷ $180 million

                                            = 0.62 or 62 %

Conclusion

the weight of common equity that should be 0.62 or 62 %

Explain the effects on the supply of unskilled workers, the supply of skilled workers, and the equilibrium wage for the two groups. In particular what is the equilibrium wage of skilled workers relative to unskilled workers after some unskilled workers receive training

Answers

Answer:

a. Short-run economic profit: $  40,000  per lease.

Long-run economic profit: $  0  per lease.

b. Landowners would gain $40,000 per plot each year due to higher rent for land

Explanation:

The short-run economic profit for a cotton farmer is:

Economic profit = Total revenue - Explicit costs - Implicit costs = $60,000 - $14,000 - $6,000 = $40,000 per lease.

Landowners would reap the long-term benefits of the scheme. Their income would rise by $40,000 per year per 120-acre plot because rent would rise from $10,000 to $50,000.

Unskilled labor is one of the most plentiful resources in emerging nations, and it is heavily utilized to support those nations' economic development. Therefore, the cost of this labor plays a significant role in the selection and layout of development projects.

What effects on the supply of unskilled workers?

Saving Money – Although skilled workers may initially be paid more than unskilled workers, competent people will ultimately cost less for your company. Unskilled workers are more likely to need more training, commit errors while working, and maybe your client relationships.

If the minimum wage levels are low in comparison to average salaries, increasing the minimum wage that employers must pay has minimal effects on total hours worked (i.e., total jobs times hours per job).

Therefore, Any decrease in the labor force available to a market will result in higher salaries and higher employer costs.

Answers

Answer:

B) $ 70,000.

Explanation:

Debt service expense

Debt service expense is the interest expense incurred to avail the debt services from another entity.

Debt service expense can be calculated using the following formula

Debt service expense = Face value of Bonds x Interest rate x Semiannual fraction

Where

Face value of bonds = $3,500,000

Interest rate  = 4%

Semiannual fraction = 6 / 12 = 1/ 2

placing values in the formula

Debt service expense = $3,500,000 x 4% x 1/2

Debt service expense = $70,000

High-Low Method The manufacturing costs of Ackerman Industries for the first three months of the year follow: Total Costs Units Produced January $1,900,000 20,000 units February 2,250,000 27,000 March 2,400,000 30,000 Using the high-low method, determine (a) the variable cost per unit and (b) the total fixed cost. a. Variable cost per unit $fill in the blank 1 b. Total fixed cost $fill in the blank 2

Answers

Answer:

A. $50 per unit

B. $900,000

Explanation:

(a) Computation for the variable cost per unit using this formula

Variable cost per unit=(Total cost at highest level-Total cost at lowest level)/(Highest level-Lowest level)

Let plug in the formula

Variable cost per unit=(2,400,000-1,900,000)/(30,000-20,000)

Variable cost per unit=500,000/10,000

Variable cost per unit=$50 per unit

Therefore The Variable cost per unit will be $50 per unit

B. Computation to determine the Total fixed cost

Total fixed cost=2,400,0000-(50*30,000)

Total fixed cost=2,400,0000-1,500,000

Total fixed cost=$900,000

Therefore The Total fixed cost will be $900,000

Becton Labs, Inc., produces various chemical compounds for industrial use. One compound, called Fludex, is prepared using an elaborate distilling process. The company has developed standard costs for one unit of Fludex, as follows: Standard Quantity Standard Price or Rate Standard Cost Direct materials 2.50 ounces $ 28.00 per ounce $ 70.00 Direct labor 0.50 hours $ 13.00 per hour 6.50 Variable manufacturing overhead 0.50 hours $ 3.60 per hour 1.80 $ 78.30 During November, the following activity was recorded relative to production of Fludex: a. Materials purchased, 13,500 ounces at a cost of $361,800. b. There was no beginning inventory of materials; however, at the end of the month, 2,900 ounces of material remained in ending inventory. c. The company employs 21 lab technicians to work on the production of Fludex. During November, they worked an average of 140 hours at an average rate of $11.50 per hour. d. Variable manufacturing overhead is assigned to Fludex on the basis of direct labor-hours. Variable manufacturing overhead costs during November totaled $4,400. e. During November, 4,200 good units of Fludex were produced . Required: For direct materials: a. Compute the price and quantity variances. (Round your "price per ounce" answers to 2 decimal places. Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance).) b. The materials were purchased from a new supplier who is anxious to enter into a long-term purchase contract. Would you recommend that the company sign the contract?

Answers

Answer:

A. Materials price variance 16,200 F

Materials quantity variance 2,800 U

B. Yes

Explanation:

A. Computation for the price and quantity variances For direct materials

Calculation for Materials price variance

Materials price variance=361,800-(13,500*28)

Materials price variance=361,800-378,000

Materials price variance=16,200 FAVOURABLE

Calculation for Materials quantity variance

First step is to calculate Actual materials used

Actual materials used=13,500-2,900

Actual materials used=10,600

Now let compute the Materials quantity variance

Materials quantity variance=28*(10,600-4,200*2.5)

Materials quantity variance=2,800

UNFAVORABLE

Therefore the price will be 16,200 FAVOURABLE and quantity variances will be 2,800 UNFAVORABLE For direct materials

B. Based on the above calculation I Would recommend that the company sign the contract because Materials variance is Favorable
