The town of Draper, with a population of 20,000, sits adjacent to State University, which has an enrollment of 27,000 students. Downtown Draper merchants have long complained about the lack of parking available to their customers. This is one primary reason for the steady migration of downtown businesses to a mall several miles outside town. The local chamber of commerce has finally convinced the town council to consider the construction of a new multilevel indoor parking facility downtown. Kelly Mattingly, the town’s public works director, has developed plans for a facility that would cost $4.5 million to construct. To pay for the project, the town would sell municipal bonds with a duration of 30 years at 8% interest. Kelly also estimates that five employees would be required to operate the lot on a daily basis, at a total annual cost of $140,000. It is estimated that each car that enters the lot would park for an average of 2.5 hours and pay an average fee of $3.20. Further, it is estimated that each car that parks in the lot would (on average) cost the town $0.60 in annual maintenance for cleaning and repairs to the facility. Most of the downtown businesses (which include a number of restaurants) are open 7 days per week.

Required:
a. Using break-even analysis, determine the number of cars that would have to park in the lot on an annual basis to pay off the project in the 30-year time frame.
b. From the results in (A), determine the approximate number of cars that would have to park in the lot on a daily basis. Does this seem to be a reasonable number to achieve, given the size of the town and college population?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Let the break even sales be represented by x.

Firstly, we will calculate the total fixed cost which will be:

Investment = $4.5million/30 = $150,000

Add: Annual labor cost = $140,000

Add: Interest = 8% × $4.5million = $360,000

Total Fixed cost = $650000

The total variable cost will be: = 0.60 × x = 0.60x

Therefore, total cost:

= fixed cost + variable cost

= 650000 + 0.60x

Total revenue = Selling price × sales

= 3.20 × x = 3.20x

Break even point will now be:

Total revenue = Total cost

3.20x = 650000 + 0.60x

3.20x - 0.60x = 650000

2.60x = 650000

x = 650000/2.60

x = 250000

Therefore, number of cars that would have to park in the lot on an annual basis to pay off the project is 250000.

b. The approximate number of cars that would have to park in the lot on a daily basis will be:

= 250000/365 days

= 684.91

=685 cars

On January 1, 2019, Woodstock, Inc. purchased a machine costing $40,600. Woodstock also paid $1,300 for transportation and installation. The expected useful life of the machine is 6 years and the residual value is $5,300. If Woodstock uses the straight-line depreciation method, which of the following statements is incorrect?

a. The annual depreciation expense is $6.100.
b. The December 31, 2019 book value is $35,800
c. The December 31, 2020 book value is $24,400
d. The December 31, 2021 accumulated depreciation balance is $18,300

Answers

Answer:

Book value (2020)= $29,700

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total purchase price= 40,600 +´1,300= $41,900

Useful life= 6 years

Residual value= $5,300

To determine which option is incorrect, we are going to calculate the annual depreciation, book value, and accumulated depreciation:

Annual depreciation= (Total purchase price - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation=  (41,900 - 5,300) / 6

Annual depreciation= $6,100

Accumulated depreciation (2021)= 6,100*3= $18,300

Book value (2019)= 41,900 - 6,100= $35,800

Book value (2020)= 35,800 - 6,100= $29,700

The following are Hibiscus Company's cost of making and selling an item:

A one-time only special order has been received for 600 units. The company has capacity to accept the oder and it would not affect regular sales. The sales price for the special order is 26 per unit. Total fixed costs would not be affected by this order. The variable selling and administrative costs would have to be incurred for this special order. The order would require an additional $3 per unit for specialized materials and a new machine that costs $2,000. What is the financial advantage or disadvantage of accepting the special order?

Answers

Answer:

$2,800 financial advantage

Explanation:

We consider incremental costs and revenues in our analysis for the effects of accepting the special order.

Analysis of effects of accepting the special order :

Sales - Incremental (600 units x $26)                                        $15,600

Less Incremental Costs :

Direct materials ($9 x 600 units)                                                ($5,400)

Direct labor ($4 x 600 units)                                                       ($2,400)

Variable manufacturing overhead ($2 x 600 units)                   ($1,200)

Specialized materials ($3 x 600 units)                                        ($1,800)

Machine Cost                                                                               ($2,000)

Financial Advantage / (Disadvantage)                                         $2,800

therefore,

the financial advantage of accepting the special order is $2,800

Discuss, what international business is, why and how it differs from domestic business, why it is important, and its historical development?

Answers

Answer:

An international business can be understood as the expansion of business beyond your country. Organizations look for economic opportunities in other countries, to achieve competitive and profitable advantages, to increase their value and their market strength.

This is a strategy that includes greater responsibilities than managing a national business, due to the fact that an international business includes adapting to a different culture, legislation and preferences, which means greater challenges and greater capacity for the organization to adapt its values, products and services the culture and local rules, in order to be well accepted and well positioned in the international market.

International business was only possible due to new technologies, which allowed individuals to move and communicate more quickly, which enabled this international expansion in a more dynamic way and management in real time, regardless of geographic distance.

Currently we live in the era of globalization, where there is a great economic interaction between the countries of the world, in an ultra-competitive environment where each organization seeks the best way to generate value and economic results.

Revised efficiency of production [tex]=\frac{8 \ days}{ 11\ days} =72.73\%[/tex]

The value added activities are assembly and paintings, the total chart's time is 18 days, the manufacturing ratio is 44.44% and the revised value of efficiency is 72.73%.

For point A:

What are value added activities?

Value Added Activities are those activities that modify the product from raw material into finished goods that the customer is willing to pay for.

Hence, the value added activities are assembly and paintings.

For point B:

The chart of the total cycle time is given in the image below:

For option D:

Time Quantity Management = 4 days,

Just-in-time Inventory Shortage Time= 3 days,

Reduction Total = 7 days,

[tex]\text{Total Time of cycle}=\text{18 days - 7 days}\\\\=11\text{days}[/tex]

Jerry's company has launched a new product following the market penetration pricing. Thus, his products have a low price and he is spending a lot on the advertising product price.

Using a lower price during the initial offering of a new product or service, firms utilize penetration pricing as a marketing approach to draw clients to the new offering.

A new product or service can more easily enter the market and draw clients away from rivals thanks to a reduced price. Pricing for market penetration is based on the principle of initially offering a new product at low rates to attract the attention of as many consumers as possible.

A price penetration strategy seeks to increase market share by luring consumers to test new products in the hopes that they would remain loyal after prices return to normal. An online news site that offers a trial month of a subscription-based service is an example of penetration pricing.

a.) Suppose that South Pangean debt is $100 million and the interest rate it pays on that debt is 4 percent. That means its interest payments must be $ million.
b.) If South Pangean expenditures are $30 million without interest payments, that means its expenditures with interest payments are $ million.

Answers

Answer:

a

$4 million

b.

expenditures with interest payments

Explanation:

a.

The interest payment is the value of debt taken multiplied by the interest rate on the debt.

In other words, the interest payment is computed using the below formula:

annual interest payment=value of debt*interest rate

value of debt=$100 million

interest rate=4%

annual interest payment=$100 million*4%

annual interest payment=$4 million

b.

The expenditures with interest payments are is the expenditures without interest payments plus interest payments determined as $4million above

expenditures with interest payments=expenditures without interest payments+interest payments

expenditures without interest payments=$30 million

interest payments=$4 million

expenditures with interest payments=$30million+$4million

expenditures with interest payments=$34million

The interest amount for the $ 100 million at 4% interest rate has been $4 million. The expenditure of South Pangean with interest has been $34 million.

(a) Interest has been the amount paid to the sum principal amount based on the interest rate.

Annual interest can be calculated as:

Interest = Interest rate [tex]\times[/tex] Principal sum

Interest = 4% [tex]\times[/tex] $100 Million

Interest = [tex]\rm \dfrac{4}{100}[/tex]  [tex]\times[/tex] $100 Million

Interest = $ 4 Million.

(b) The expenditures with interest have been the sum of expenditure and the interest amount.

Expenditure with interest = Expenditure + Interest

Expenditure with interest = $ 30 + $ 4 million

Expenditure with interest = $ 34 million.

Speedy has net income of $30,955, and assets at the beginning of the year of $212,000. Assets at the end of the year total $258,000. Compute its return on assets.

Answers

Answer:

13.17%

Explanation:

Given that;

Net income = $30,955

Asset at the beginning of the year = $212,000

Asset at the end of the year = $258,000

Return on assets = Net income / Average total assets

But,

Average total assets = (Assets at the beginning of the year + Assets at the end of the year ) / 2

Average total assets = ($212,000 + $258,000) / 2

Average total assets = $235,000

Therefore,

Return on assets = ($30,955 / $235,000) × 100

Return on assets = 13.17%

A company is considering the purchase of new equipment for $480,000. The projected after-tax net income is $80,000 per year after deducting $160,000 of annual depreciation expense. The equipment has a useful life of 3 years and no salvage value. What is the payback period for the new equipment?
a. 2 years.
b. 3 years.
c. 4 years.
d. 5 years.
e. 6 years.

Answers

Answer:

a. 2 years.

Explanation:

Annual cash flow = After-tax net income + Depreciation

Annual cash flow = $80,000 + $160,000

Annual cash flow = $240,000

Payback Period = Cost of Project / Annual cash Flow

Payback Period = $480,000 / $240,000

Payback Period = 2 years

So, the payback period for the new equipment is 2 years.

Money is neutral in:___________
A. the short run, since it cannot alter the real aggregate output or price level in the short run.
B. both the short and long run, since it cannot alter price levels or aggregate output in the long and short run.
C. the long run, since it only affects the price level, but not aggregate output or interest rates.
D. the short run, since it cannot alter the price levels or interest rate in the short run.

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Money neutrality is a theory which submits that money supply only affect nominal variable and not real variables.

Nominal variables include price, wages and exchange rate

real variables include employment and real GDP

Money is only neutral in the long run and not in the short run because of money illusion. Money illusion causes economic agents to respond to money supply changes.

Money is neutral only in the long run

Answers

Specific Goals are goals that are specific, and example would be “I want to go to the beach and meditiate” so you would make it specific by saying in detail how you would get there like “sub” goals. Realistic Goals is when you have a goal that can be achieved. I’m not sure what a planning goal is.

Sabrina, Kris, and Kelly are the only three residents of the small town of Charleston. They are considering whether to hire a police officer to patrol the town. Sabrina values the police officer at $610 per week, Kris values the police officer at $230 per week, and Kelly values the police officer at $150 per week. The competitive wage for a police officer is $900 per week.

a. If the protection provided by the police officer to one resident does not diminish the protection provided to the other residents, then the police officer is ____________

1. a commons
2. an excludable
3. a rival
4. a nonrival
5. a nonexcludable good.

b. Suppose Sabrina proposes a tax whereby all three residents split the cost of the police officer equally.

1. Will the majority of them support this tax?
2. No, they will not support the tax.
3. Yes, they will support the tax.
4. Is this outcome socially efficient?
5. This outcome is not socially efficent.
6. This outcome is socially efficient.

Answers

Answer:

        a. 4. a nonrival

        b. 1. a. No, they will not support the tax.

            2. b. This outcome is socially efficient.

Explanation:

When the services provided by a good to one person does not diminish the good's ability to provide those same services for another, the good is said to be non-rival in nature.

If an equal tax is proposed, not everyone would be in support of it because some would be paying more than they value the policeman. An equal tax would be:

= 900 salary / 3 = $300

This is more than the value that both Kris($230) and Kelly ($150) value the police officer at.

This outcome however, is socially efficient because when costs are split evenly, a socially optimal and efficient outcome often results.

On September 30, 2018, Corso Steel acquired a patent from Thermo Steel. The agreement specified that Corso will pay Thermo $1,000,000 immediately and then another $1,000,000 on September 30, 2020. An interest rate of 8% reflects the time value of money for this type of loan agreement.
What amount of interest expense, if any, would Corso record on December 31, 2019, the company’s fiscal year end?
a. $68,687.
b. $80,000.
c. $60,000.
d. $69,959.

Answers

Answer: $69,959

Explanation:

The amount of interest expense, that Corso will record on December 31, 2019, the company’s fiscal year end will be calculated thus:

First, we calculate the present value of payment which will be made on September 30,2020 and this will be:

= $1000000 × 0.857339

= $857339

Then, the interest expense on December 31,2018 will be:

= $857339 × 8%/12 × 3

= $17147

Therefore, the Interest expense on December 31,2019 will be:

= ($857339 + $17147) × 8%

= $874486 × 0.08

= $69959
