Sommer, Inc., is considering a project that will result in initial after tax cash savings of $1.83 million at the end of the first year, and these savings will grow at a rate of 2 percent per year indefinitely. The firm has a target debt-equity ratio of .80, a cost of equity of 12.3 percent, and an aftertax cost of debt of 5.1 percent. The cost-saving proposal is somewhat riskier than the usual project the firm undertakes; management uses the subjective approach and applies an adjustment factor of 1 percent to the cost of capital for such risky projects. What is the maximum initial cost the company would be willing to pay for the project

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$22,592,593

Explanation:

For the computation of maximum initial cost first we need to follow some steps which are shown below:-

Let equity be 1 so debt = 1 × 0.80

= 0.80

weight of debt = 0.80 ÷ 1.8

= 0.44444

weight of equity = 1 ÷ 1.8

= 0.55556

Now

Cost of capital = (After tax cost of debt × Weight of debt) + (Cost of equity × Weight of equity)

= (5.1 × 0.44444) + (12.3 × 0.55556)

= 2.266644 + 6.833388

= 9.10 %

And,

Adjusted cost of capital is

= 9.1 + 1

= 10.1%

Maximum amount willing to pay = CF1 ÷ (Adjusted cost of capital -G)

= $1,830,000 ÷ (0.101 - 0.02)

= $1,830,000 ÷ 0.081

= $22,592,593

Answers

Answer:

1. Record a liability.

2. Disclose in notes.

3. Disclose in notes.

Explanation:

The issue here relates to a Contingent Liability which is a provision that is recorded in the books as a liability if there is a likelihood that the firm will incur it in future. This is usually done for law suits.

The general rule is: Record a liability if the loss is probable and estimable.

If a loss is not probable, disclose it in the notes.

If a loss is not estimable, disclose it in the notes.

1. Loss is both estimable and it is probable that Humphrey will lose the case. It should be recorded as a liability.

2. It is probable that Humphrey will lose the case however, loss is not estimable. Disclose in the notes.

3. It is not probable that Humphrey will lose the case. Disclose in the notes.

The purpose of a buffer statement in a negative message is to ________. a. ensure that the company avoids legal liability. b. reduce the reader's shock or pain related to the bad news. c. inform the reader of the reasons for the bad news. d. explain company policy regarding the bad-news message.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:  b. reduce the reader's shock or pain related to the bad news.

Explanation:

Communication is a fundamental tool that promotes synergy for a company to achieve its objectives and goals.  Through this process, it is possible to pass on essential information, integrate employees, strengthen the organization's reputation, promote a good relationship with the internal and external environment, etc.

However, many times companies also need to transmit some bad news, so it is important that there are resources and tools so that communication is carried out in a clear and effective manner without causing any type of situation that alarms the recipients of the message, therefore the buffer statement is used at the beginning of a letter or commercial communication to reduce the impact of bad news, helping to prepare the reader for what will be communicated, explaining the context of the message in a more neutral and not so alarming way.

Sheldon just joined a new gym and signed up for a one-year membership. Membership fees can be paid in 12 monthly payments of $60, due at the beginning of each month or in one payment today. If the appropriate interest rate is 10%, how much should he pay today for the annual membership

Answers

Answer: $688.17

Explanation:

He has to pay $60 every month on the first day or a lump sum.

The lump sum will be the present value of monthly payments.

This is a stable Cashflow and so is an Annuity and because it is done on the first day of the month it is an Annuity due.

Calculating present value of annuity due is;

= Annuity + Annuity (( 1 - ( 1 + r) ^ -(n - 1)) / r)

= 60 + 60 (( 1 - ( 1 + 0.833%)-¹¹) / 0.833%) )

=60 + 60* 10.4695

= $688.17

Note: interest rate must be divided into 12 to make it monthly rate.

=10%/12

= 0.833%

Answers

Answer:

Payroll factor State U:

commissions $50,000fringe benefit package $15,000

Explanation:

State           Sales Generated Fiona’s         Time Spent There

U                        $3,000,000                             20%

V                        $4,000,000                             50%

X                        $8,000,000                             30%

Sales percentage generated in state U = $3,000,000 / $15,000,000 = 20%

so 20% of the $250,000 commissions should be assigned to state U = $50,000

Time spent in state U = 20% x $75,000 fringe benefits = $15,000 assigned to state U

Required
a. What amount of ordinary business income is allocated to Jane?
b. What is the amount and character of separately stated items allocated to Jane?
c. What is Jane's basis in her XYZ corp. stock at the end of the year?

Answers

Answer:

(a) $169,000 (b)The separated items are $8,000, $5000 and $3000 with the amount  of $4,000, $2,500 and $1,500 respectively. (c) $217,000

Explanation:

Solution

(a) The ordinary business  income allocated to Jane is given below:

Particulars                              Amount               Jane allocation 50%

Overall net income for 2016  $354,000

Less:

Long term capital gains           $8,000

Dividends                                 $5,000

Tax exempt interest                 $3,000

Ordinary business income      $338,000                   $169,000

Therefore ordinary business income allocated to Jane = $169,000  

(b) The amount and character of separately stated items allocated to Jane is given below:

Particulars                              Amount               Jane allocation 50%

Separately stated items :

Long term capital gains         $8,000                       $4,000

Dividends                                $5,000                       $2,500

Tax exempt interest               $3,000                       $1,500

(c) Jane’s stock basis at the end of the year is given below:

Jane’s stock basis at the end of the year = k + allocation(50%) +long term capital gains(50%)+dividends(50%)+tax exempt interest (50%))

= ($40,000+$169,000+$4,000+$2,500+$1,500)

= $217,000

Hence stock basis at the year end is $217,000

Explain how investors could exploit the situation to create portfolios with high expected rates of return but low levels of risk. (LO12-2)

Answers

Answer:

The overview of the given scenario is described in the explanation segment below.

Explanation:

Diversification could never eradicate the systematic risk. It's indeed primarily even though all securities shift somewhat in unison (a significant part of their volatility is purposeful) also that diversified stock strategies remain volatile. Additionally, if I am a thing that separates by purchasing a proportion throughout the S & P indicator, I would also have indeed very variable returns because the global economy as a whole has been fluctuating widely.The unsystematic risk seems to be the volatility in share markets arising through factors unique to something like an individual's abilities. The risk involved with this kind of volatility is essentially the form whereby diversification could increasing.The entire premise of portfolio selection would be that, to both the degree that shares don't shift in unison all of the occasions, variations throughout the performance from every other given sector appear to have been wiped clean or softened out by additional differences in contributions from several other investments.

Meade Nuptial Bakery makes very elaborate wedding cakes to order. The company has an activity-based costing system with three activity cost pools. The activity rate for the Size-Related activity cost pool is $1.22 per guest. (The greater the number of guests, the larger the cake.) The activity rate for the Complexity-Related cost pool is $36.21 per tier. (Cakes with more tiers are more complex.) Finally, the activity rate for the Order-Related activity cost pool is $83.33 per order. (Each wedding involves one order for a cake.) The activity rates include the costs of raw ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs, and shortening. The activity rates do not include the costs of purchased decorations such as miniature statues and wedding bells, which are accounted for separately.

On January 1, 2019, Wasson Company purchased a delivery vehicle costing $38,000. The vehicle has an estimated 7-year life and a $3,000 residual value. What is the vehicle's book value as of December 31, 2020, assuming Wasson uses the straight-line depreciation method

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $28,000

Explanation:

straight-line depreciation method =

( original cost of the asset minus salvage/residual value) ÷ number of useful life

Cost of the asset is $38,000

Residual value is $3,000

Number of use life is 7 years

($38,000 - $3,000) ÷ 7 years

= $5,000

Depreciation is $5,000 per year.

January 1, 2019 through

December 31, 2020 is 2 years.

That means accumulated depreciation is $10,000 ( $5,000 x 2 years)

Book value = cost of the asset - accumulated depreciation

$38,000 - $10,000

Book value = $28,000

Blue Sky Drone Company has a total asset turnover ratio of 3.50x, net annual sales of $25 million, and operating expenses of $11 million (including depreciation and amortization). On its balance sheet and income statement, respectively, it reported total debt of $2.50 million on which it pays a 7% interest rate. To analyze a company’s financial leverage situation, you need to measure the firm’s debt management ratios. Based on the preceding information, what are the values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratios?

Answers

Answer:

The values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratio is 0.35

Explanation:

In order to calculate the values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratios we would have to make the following calculation:

debt management ratio=Total Debt / Total Assets

According to the given we have that it reported total debt of $2.50 million.

To calculate the total assets we would have to use the following formula:

Total Asset Turnover Ratio = Net Sales / Total Assets

3.50=$25,000,000/Total Assets

Total Assets=$25,000,000/3.50

Total Assets=$7,142,857

Therefore, debt management ratio=$2,500,000/$7,142,857

debt management ratio=0.35

The values for Blue Sky Drone’s debt management ratio is 0.35

"Columbia Corp.'s required ROI is 10%. Its West Division has revenues of $6,000,000, asset turnover of 1, and ROI of 10%. Calculate the West Division's operating income."

Answers

Answer: $600,000

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Columbia Corp.'s required return on investment is 10%. Its West Division has revenues of $6,000,000, asset turnover of 1, and ROI of 10%. The the West Division's operating income goes thus:

Revenue= $6,000,000

Asset turnover = 1

It should be noted that assets turnover is calculated as revenue divided by total assets. This will be:

1 = 6,000,000/total asset

Total asset = 6,000,000/1

= 6,000,000

Since return on investment is 10%,

ROI = Operating income/total assets

10% = operating income/6,000,000

0.1 = operating income/6,000,000

Operating income= 6,000,000 × 0.1

Operating Income= $600,000

To ensure that as many individuals as possible use seat belts, the government recently decided to subsidize the production of seat belts.
Which of the following will happen as a result of this subsidy?
A. The demand curve for seat belts will increase.
B. The demand curve for seat belts will remain the same.
C. The demand curve for seat belts will shift to the left.
D. The supply curve for seat belts will shift to the left.
E. The supply curve for seat belts will shift to the right.

Answers

Answer:

E. The supply curve for seat belts will shift to the right.

Explanation:

When a government establishes a subsidy, it is basically giving money to private people or businesses. In this case, the government's money should in crease the supply of seat belts by lowering their costs. This increase in the supply should shift the supply curve to the left and hopefully help to lower the price of seat belts (besides increasing the quantity supplied).

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of net requirements for each item is shown below:-

Net requirement = Gross requirement - Inventory

To compute the Gross requirement we will use the following formulas:

A = 5 × Net requirement of X

= 5 × 127

= 635

B = 2 × Net requirement of X

= 2 × 127

= 254

C = 3 × Net requirement of X

= 3 ×  127

= 381

D = 3 × Net requirement of B

= 3 × 180

= 540

E = 2 × Net requirement of B

= 2 × 180

= 360

F = 4 × Net requirement of C

= 4 × 358

= 1,432

G = 1 × Net requirement of C

= 1 × 358

= 358

Item      Gross Requirement      Inventory       Net Requirement

X                  127                              1                     127

A                   635                            19                   616

B                    254                            74                 180

Lake Charles Seafood makes 550 wooden packing boxes for fresh seafood per​ day, working in two​ 10-hour shifts. Due to increased​ demand, plant managers have decided to operate three​ 8-hour shifts per day instead. The plant is now able to produce 700 boxes per day.

Required:
a. Before the change in work rules, the company's productivity per day
b. Based on the changes made, the percent increase in productivity
c. If production is increased to boxes per day (with the three 8-hour shifts), the new productivity equals

Answers

Answer:

a. Before the change in work rules, the company's productivity per day

= 550 packing boxes / 20 hours = 27.5 packing boxes per hour

b. Based on the changes made, the percent increase in productivity

productivity after the change = 700 packing boxes / 24 hours = 29.17 packing boxes per hour

productivity change = (29.17 - 27.5) / 27.5 = 6.07%

c. If production is increased to boxes per day (with the three 8-hour shifts), the new productivity equals

700 packing boxes per day (prior productivity of 550 packing boxes per day, which represents a 27.27% increase)

productivity = output / unit of time

Which of following is a TRUE statement about inventory within a continuous review system?

a. When service level increases, Economic Order Quantity increases
b. When ordering or setup costs decrease, Economic Order Quantity increases
c. When ordering or setup costs increase, Economic Order Quantity increases
d. When holding costs increase, Economic Order Quantity increases
e. When demand decreases, Economic Order Quantity increases

Answers

Answer:

c. When ordering or setup costs increase, Economic Order Quantity increases

Explanation:

In inventory there are two types of review systems used to replenish stock, the periodic inventory and continuous inventory.

Continuous inventory involves ordering the same quantity of a good in each order. However the rate at which goods are replenished varies based on monitoring of level of goods. Orders are made when inventory gets to a certain level.

In this instance when there is an increase in ordering or setup there needs to be allocation of a higher amount for orders. The additional cost is added to the economic order quantity

Statement that can be considered as a true statement as regards inventory that exists in continuous review system is C:When ordering or setup costs increase, Economic Order Quantity increases.

Inventory can be regarded as goods as well as materials that is been held by business so that they can resale, or for production purposes.

In a continuous review system, when setting up  a increase in cost of goods, then the Economic quantity order will increase.

Therefore, option C is correct.

A U.S.-based company, Global Products Inc., has wholly owned subsidiaries across the world. Global Products Inc. sells products linked to major holidays in each country.
The president and board members of Global Products Inc. believe that the managers of their wholly owned country-level subsidiaries are best motivated and rewarded with both annual salaries and annual bonuses. The bonuses are calculated as a predetermined percentage of pretax annual income.
Señora Larza, the president of Global Products of Mexico, has worked hard this year to make her Mexican subsidiary profitable. She is looking forward to receiving her annual bonus, which is calculated as a predetermined percentage (15 percent) of this year's pretax annual income earned by Global Products of Mexico. A condensed income statement for Global Products of Mexico for the most recent year is as follows (amounts in thousands of pesos).
Sales MXN 25,000
Expenses 23,000
Pretax Income MXN 2,000
The U.S. headquarters financial group translates each of its wholly owned subsidiary's results into U.S. dollars for evaluation. After translating the Mexican pesos income statement into U.S. dollars, the condensed income statement for Global Products of Mexico is as follows (amounts in thousands of dollars).

Answers

Answer:

Global Products Inc.

Global Products of Mexico

Señora Larza

A1. Bonus on mexican peso-based Pretax Income

= MXN 2,000 x 15% = MXN 300

Bonus U.S. dollar-based Pretax Income

= -$1,100 x 15% = -$165, there is no U.S. dollar-based bonus

A2. U.S. dollars

Current Exchange rate = US$1 = MXN 20.0369 (July 18, 2020)

MXN 2,000 = MXN 2,000/MXN 20.0369 = $98.19

B. Average exchange rate for sales pesos

Sales MXN 25,000 = US $7,000,

The exchange rate = US $1 = MXN 3.5714 (MXN 25,000/ US $7,000)

Average exchange rate for expenses pesos

Expenses MXN 23,000 = US $ 8,100

The exchange rate =  US $1 = MXN 2.8395 (MXN 23,000/US $ 8,100)

Explanation:

Señora Larza, the president of Global Products of Mexico seems to have a bonus in Mexican peso, but when the bonus pre-tax income is translated into US dollars, the bonus turns negative just like the pre-tax income was negative.  This implies that since the U.S. headquarters translates each subsidiary's results into U.S. dollars for evaluation, Señora Larza did not qualify for bonus payment for the current year.

The disparity is caused by the different exchange rates for translating the sales revenue and the expenses.  Exchange rates are the rates at which currencies exchange their values for international account settlements.

Explanation:

Calculation for Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance at December 31, 2018

Using this formula

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts=( Ending accounts receivable ×Bad debt expense rate ) + (Allowance for doubtful accounts -Accounts written off as uncollectible)

Let plug in the formula

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts=(1,199,000 ×2%) +(12,700-9,200)

1-a. Amount of Current Liabilities:

$102,400

1-b. Computation of working capital:

Working capital = Current assets minus Current liabilities

= $168,000 - 102,400 = $65,600

2. Computation of working capital with contingent liabilities of $250,000 in the notes to the financial statements:

If the contingent liabilities are likely to occur, since the amount has been ascertained, the working capital would have been different.

Working capital would have been = 168,000 - 102,400 - 250,000 = ($184,400).

Explanation:

a) Current Liabilities:

Accounts payable                                 56,000

Income taxes payable                           14,000

Liability for withholding taxes                3,000

c) Contingent liabilities are probable future financial obligations.  They become probable to occur in the future as a result of some past events.  If it is probable that they would occur and the amount involved can be reasonably estimated, they are recognized in the accounts.  If the amount cannot be ascertained, they are presented as notes to the financial statements.

d) Current liabilities are the financial obligations owed by an entity to others as a result of past transactions, and their payment or settlement is usually due within the next 12 months.

e) Working capital is the difference between current assets and current liabilities of a company.  It is called working capital because they are the net resources that can be used in the business operations of the company within the current period.

Total current liabilities                    $102,400

The amount of Current Liabilities is $102,400.

Answer 1-b.

The computation of working capital is :

Current Liabilities = $102,400

Current Assets

Current Assets = Total assets - noncurrent assets

Current Assets = $530,000 - 362,000

Current Assets= $168,000

Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

Working capital = $168,000 - 102,400

Working capital = $65,600

The working capital is $65,600.

Answer 2:

The computation the company reported $250,000 worth of contingent liabilities in the notes to its financial statements is :

Computation of working capital with contingent liabilities =$250,000

If the contingent liabilities are likely to occur, since the amount has been ascertained, the working capital would have been different.

Working capital = Current Assets- Current Liability- Working Capital

Working capital  = 168,000 - 102,400 - 250,000

Working capital  = ($184,400).

Given the following information, calculate the net operating income assuming below-line treatment of capital expenditures: property: 6 office units, contract rents per unit: $2,750 per month; vacancy and collection losses: 19%; operating expenses: $45,500; capital expenditures: 7%.

Answers

Answer:

$114,880

Explanation:

The computation of the net operating income is shown below:

= (Number of office units × contract rents per unit × total number of months in a year) - (Number of office units × contract rents per unit × total number of months in a year × vacancy and collection losses - operating expenses)

= (6 × $2,750 × 12 months) - (6 × 2,750 × 12 months × 19% - $45,500)

= $198,000 - $37,620 - $45,500
