The Board acknowledges your analysis and agrees with your conclusion. They are now curious about how Charles Schwab can use strategies of a mature industry to increase its revenue. You present them two options. One is to implement a product proliferation strategy to establish a presence in the niches that the new entrants are targeting. This strategy has proven to be very successful in the past and can be a very timely advantage. Another plausible strategy is product development to enhance current products. Research shows that the current product line is still fresh in the consumers’ eyes. Which is the wiser choice?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Analyzing the two strategies, the wisest choice would be the product proliferation strategy to establish a presence in the niches that the new competitors are aiming for.

This strategy consists of increasing a company's product mix, in order to increase its positioning in the market through the conquest of new market shares, which consists in the increase of consumers and a greater competitiveness for the company in entering new niches.

The other product development strategy to improve current products may not be a good strategy at the moment, as we have information that the current product is still fresh in the eyes of consumers, so the product is growing, which means that consumers already know the product and there are growth rates in the purchase and repurchase of the product.

She asks you to submit her vacation request to the corporate office for the week prior to September 1st, and wants you to not schedule her for the days between the 20th and 25th, and she wants her "vacation" pay for those days.


Would you do it? Why? or Why Not?

Answers

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Her vacation is expired and therefore invalid. Also she is requesting for a pay during this period which counters Amy form of sympathy for this employee. However, depending on the relationship the employee has with her employer, there might be a compromise especially if the employee really does need the vacation as she may be burned out or may have postponed vacation till expiration for the interest of the company

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point in units= 2,600

Explanation:

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Fixed costs= $65,000

Contribution margin per unit= 50*0.5= $25

Break-even point in units= 65,000/25

Break-even point in units= 2,600

F2 = 650,000

F3 = 350,000

F4 = 170,000

F5 = 62,000

NPV at 10% $327487

IRR 20.587%

Explanation:

F0 -900,000

        revenues     variable cost   fixed cost   net flow

F1  800,000 -400000  -100,000 = 300,000

F2  1,500,000 -750000  -100,000 =  650,000

F3  900000 -450000  -100,000 =  350,000

F4  540000 -270000  -100,000 =    170,000

F5  324000 -162000  -100,000 =     62,000

NPV at 10%:

Legal and other fees for patent application on the new
communication system 40,000
Legal fees for successful defense of the new patent 20,000
Total $ 3,300,000
The equipment will be used on this and other research projects. Depreciation on the equipment for 2013 is $10,000.
During your year-end review of the accounts related to intangibles, you discover that the company has capitalized all of the above as costs of the patent. Management contends that the device simply represents an improvement of the existing communication system of the satellite and, therefore, should be capitalized.

Brief Exercise 14-08 Ziegler Corporation reports net income of $380,000 and a weighted-average of 200,000 shares of common stock outstanding for the year. Compute the earnings per share of common stock.

Answers

Answer:

$1.9

Explanation:

The computation of the earning per share is shown below:

Earning per share is

= Net income ÷ Weighted number of oustanding shares

= $380,000 ÷ 200,000 shares

= $1.9

By simply divide the net income from the Weighted number of oustanding shares, the earning per share could be determined

Hence, the earning per share is $1.9

Explanation:

a) 111 millions shares x $0.50 = $55.5 millions

c)

111 millions x $18 per share x 6% = 119.88 millions

660,000 x $18 = 11.88 millions

net: 119.88 - 11.88 = 108 millons on shares

$108 millons / $18 per share = 6,000,000 shares

d)

111  + 6 new shares = 117 shares

$117 x $0.50 = $58.5 millons

f) 3-2 split gives 3 shares for every 2 shares

117 x 3/2 = 175.5 millons

175.5 millions x 0.35 per share = 61.425 million cash dividends

B. Order quantity = 2,049 Books

C. Reorder point=987

Explanation:

a. In order To manage inventory, the company is using what is called Continuous review system

b. Calculation to find the order quality

Using this formula

Order quantity = √((2DS)/H)

Let plug in the morning

Order quantity=√ ((2 x 49,404 x 17)/0.40)

Order quantity = 2,049 Books

(138*358=49,404)

C. Calculation for reorder point

First step is to find the σL

73 % S.L. - z = 0.613

Using this formula to find the σL

σL = (Lσ^2)

Let plug in the formula

σL=√(7(13)^2)

σL= 34.39

Second step is to find the Reorder point using this formula

R = d bar(L) + zσL

Let plug in the formula

Reorder point = (138)(7) + 0.613(34.39)

Reorder point = 966+21

Reorder point=987

He has been with his present company, a large retail grocer, for the past six years performing the same job. There are twelve people in the meat department, and each one specializes in cutting certain types of meat. Tommy's job is to cut ribeye steaks. Cutting ribeye steaks is very precise and requires holding and using a knife in the same way every day. This requirement has started to cause Tommy pain in his right hand. Although Tommy still likes his work, he is getting a little bored of the repetition and is bothered by the pain.

The quality of Tommy’s work has not suffered, but the store managers can tell that he is getting bored. What could they do to keep him better engaged?

a. Purchase special ergonomic mats to help with the pain associated with standing on the hard floor every day.
b. Motivate Tommy by giving him feedback about how skilled he is in cutting ribeye and explain that customers visit the store for his custom steaks.
c. Offer Tommy more money because he is so good at cutting meat.
d. Cross train the employees in the meat department, so beef cutters can learn how to cut pork and vice versa.
e. Administer a work personality quiz to Tommy to see if there is another area in the store where he could move to, such as the produce department.

Answers

Answer: d. Cross train the employees in the meat department, so beef cutters can learn how to cut pork and vice versa.

Explanation:

Since the quality of Tommy’s work has not suffered, but the store managers can tell that he is getting bored, the thing that could be done to keep him better engaged is to cross train the employees in the meat department, so beef cutters can learn how to cut pork and vice versa. Cross training helps the workers in the company appreciate the workers of others in other department and shows workers flexibility.

Sheridan Company pays all salaried employees on a biweekly basis. Overtime pay, however, is paid in the next biweekly period. Sheridan accrues salaries expense only at its December 31 year end. Data relating to salaries earned in December 2020 are as follows: Last payroll was paid on 12/26/20, for the 2-week period ended 12/26/20. Overtime pay earned in the 2-week period ended 12/26/20 was $24000. Remaining work days in 2020 were December 29, 30, 31, on which days there was no overtime. The recurring biweekly salaries total $444000.
Assuming a five-day workweek, Sheridan should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries of:_________.
a. $266400
b. $290400
c. $133200
d. $157200

Answers

Answer:

d. $157,200

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount that Sheridan should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries

Liability for accrued salary=$24,000 + ($444,000 ÷ 10 days × 3)

Liability for accrued salary=$24,000+$133,200

Liability for accrued salary= $157,200

Therefore the amount that Sheridan should record a liability at December 31, 2020 for accrued salaries will be $157,200

Jupiter Explorers has $8,800 in sales. The profit margin is 4 percent. There are 5,300 shares of stock outstanding. The market price per share is $1.60. What is the price-earnings ratio

Answers

Answer:

Price earnings ratio = 24.09 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Sale = $8,800

Profit margin = 4% = 0.04

Number of share = 5,300

Market price per share = $1.60

Find:

Price-earnings ratio

Computation:

Earnings Per share = Profit / Number of shares

Earnings Per share = [8,800 x 0.04] / 5300

Earnings Per share = $0.0664

Price earnings ratio = Market price per share / Earnings Per share

Price earnings ratio = 1.60/0.0664

Price earnings ratio = 24.09 (Approx)

Masterson, Inc., has 4.1 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $84, and the book value per share is $11. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $70 million, has a coupon rate of 5.1%, and sells for 98% of par. The second issue has a face value of $50 million, has a coupon rate of 5.60%, and sells for 108% of par. The first issue matures in 20 years, the second in 12 years. The most recent dividend was $3.95 and the dividend growth rate is 5 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 21 percent. What is the company’s WACC?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "8.37%".

Explanation:

[tex]\text{MV of equity} = \text{equity price} \times \text{number of outstanding shares}[/tex]

                     [tex]=84 \times 4100000\\\\=344400000[/tex]

[tex]\text{MV of Bond1}=\text{Par value} \times \text{bonds outstanding} \times \text{age of percentage}[/tex]

                      [tex]=1000 \times 50000 \times 1.08 \\\\=54000000[/tex]

[tex]\text{MV of firm} = \text{MV of Equity} + \text{MV of Bond1}+ \text{MV of Bond 2}[/tex]

                  [tex]=344400000+68600000+54000000\\\\=467000000[/tex]

[tex]\text{Weight of equity W(E)} = \frac{\text{MV of Equity}}{\text{MV of firm}}[/tex]

                                     [tex]= \frac{344400000}{467000000}\\\\=0.7375[/tex]

Overheads $168,750 (credit)

Explanation:

Calculation of Labor Cost :

Job 201  = 4,280 hours × $15 = $64,200

Job 202 = 2,140 hours × $15  = $32,100

Job 203 = 1,690 hours × $15  = $25,350

Job 204 = 3,140 hours × $15  = $47,100

Application of overhead to jobs :

Job 201  = 4,280 hours × $22 = $94,160

Job 202 = 2,140 hours × $22  = $47,080

Job 203 = 1,690 hours × $22   = $37,180

Job 204 = 3,140 hours × $22 = $69,080
