Answer: 9.32%
Explanation:
The cost of levered capital is needed to calculate WACC.
Cost of levered capital = Cost of unlevered capital + (Cost of unlevered capital - cost of debt)(1 - tax) * Debt to equity ratio
Debt-equity ratio
= 22% / (100% - 22%)
= 28.205%
Cost of levered capital = 10% + (10% - 6%) * (1 - 31%) * 28.205%
= 10.78%
WACC = (Weight of debt * after tax cost of debt) + (Weight of capital * cost of capital)
= (22% * 6% *(1 - 31%)) + (78% * 10.78%)
= 9.32%

Carbonale Castings produces cast bronze valves on a 10-person assembly line. On a recent day, 160 valves were produced during an 8-hour shift. The productivity of the line is valves per hour. John Goodale, the manager of Carbondale, changed the layout and was able to increase production to 180 valves per 8-hour shift. The new productivity is valves per hour. The % productivity increase is %. Round all answers to 2 decimal places.
Answer:
Missing word " Calculate the labor productivity of the line. b) John Goodale, the manager at Carbondale, changed the layout and was able to increase production to 180 units per 8-hour shift. What is the new labor productivity per labor-hour? c.) What is the percentage of productivity increase?"
a) Output = 160 valves
Input = 10*8 = 80 labor hours
Productivity = Output / Input
Productivity = 160/80
Productivity = 2 valves per labor hour
b) Output = 180 valves
Input = 10*8 = 80 labor hour
Productivity = Output/Input
Productivity = 180/80
Productivity = 2.25 valves per labor hour
c) Percentage increase in the productivity = [(2.25 - 2) / 2] * 100
Percentage increase in the productivity = 0.125 * 100
Percentage increase in the productivity = 12.5%
Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 12% and a standard deviation of 39%. The T-bill rate is 6%A client prefers to invest in your portfolio a proportion (y) that maximizes the expected return on the overall portfolio subject to the constraint that the overall portfolio's standard deviation will not exceed 30%. a. What is the investment proportion, y
Answer:
y = 0.76923076923 or 76.923076923% rounded off to 76.92%
So, 76.92% of the portfolio should be invested in risky portfolio.
Explanation:
The portfolio standard deviation for a portfolio consisting of two securities with one of them being the risk free security is calculated by multiplying the standard deviation of the risky security by the weightage of investment in the risky security as a proportion of the overall investment in portfolio. The formula can be written as follows,
Portfolio STDEV = Weight of Risky Asset * STDEV of risky asset
30% = y * 39%
30% / 39% = y
y = 0.76923076923 or 76.923076923% rounded off to 76.92%
Kansas Enterprises purchased equipment for $74,500 on January 1, 2021. The equipment is expected to have a ten-year service life, with a residual value of $6,450 at the end of ten years. Using the straight-line method, depreciation expense for 2022 and the book value at December 31, 2022, would be: Multiple Choice $6,805 and $54,440. $7,450 and $59,600. $7,450 and $53,150. $6,805 and $60,890.
Answer:
$6,805 and $60,890.
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense for 2022 and the book value at December 31, 2022 is shown below;
Depreciation expense is
= (Cost - salvage value) ÷ useful life
= ($74,500 - $6,450) ÷ 10 years
= $6,805
And, the book value is
= $74,500 - ($6,805 × 2)
= $60,890

b-2 Sales volume variance = -$1,500
b-3 Fixed cost variance = -$20,000
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete an the data in its are merged together. The complete question with the sorted data are therefore provided as follows:
Question 1: Sales price variance, sales volume variance, and fixed cost variance
Budgeted Actual
Price $300 $350
Sales volume in units 80 75
Unit VC $100 $120
Fixed costs $100,000 $120,000
a) Without computations, characterize the following variances as favorable or unfavorable:
sales price variance F U
sales volume variance F U
fixed cost variance F U
b) Compute the following variances. Enter favorable variances as a positive number and unfavorable variances as a negative number. Do NOT enter F or U after the number.
sales price variance
sales volume variance F U
fixed cost variance
The explanation of the answers is now given as follows:
a) Without computations, characterize the following variances as favorable or unfavorable:
a-1 Sales price variance F U
When the Actual price is greater than the Budgeted price, Sales price variance is favorable (F). But when the Actual price is less than the Budgeted price, Sales price variance is unfavorable (U).
Since the Actual price is greater than the Budgeted price in this question, the Sales price variance is favorable (F).
a-2 Sales volume variance F U
When the Actual sales volume in units is greater than the Budgeted sales volume in units, Sales volume variance is favorable (F). But when the Actual sales volume in units is less than the Budgeted sales volume in units, Sales volume variance is unfavorable (U).
Since the Actual sales volume in units is less than the Budgeted sales volume in units in this question, the Sales volume variance is unfavorable (U).
a-3 Fixed cost variance F U
When the Actual Fixed costs is less than the Budgeted Fixed costs, Fixed costs variance is favorable (F). But when the Actual Fixed costs is greater than the Budgeted Fixed costs, Fixed costs variance is unfavorable (U).
Since the Actual Fixed costs is greater than the Budgeted Fixed costs in this question, the Fixed costs variance is unfavorable (U).
b) Compute the following variances. Enter favorable variances as a positive number and unfavorable variances as a negative number. Do NOT enter F or U after the number.
b-1 Calculation of sales price variance
This can be calculated as follows:
Sales price variance = (Actual price - Budgeted price) * Actual sales volume in units = ($350 - $300) * 75 = $3,750
b-2 Calculation of sales volume variance
This can be calculated as follows:
Sales volume variance = (Actual sales volume in units - Budgeted sales volume in units) * Budgeted price = (75 - 80) * $300 = -$1,500
b-3 Calculation of fixed cost variance
Fixed cost variance = Actual fixed costs - Budgeted fixed costs = $120,00 - $100,000 = -$20,000

Jenna began the year with a tax basis of $45,000 in her partnership interest. Her share of partnership debt consists of $6,000 of recourse debt, and $10,000 of nonrecourse debt at the beginning of the year, and $6,000 of recourse debt, and $13,000 of nonrecourse debt, at the end of the year. During the year, she was allocated $65,000 of partnership ordinary business loss. Jenna does not materially participate in this partnership, and she has $4,000 of passive income from other sources.A) How much of Jenna's loss is limited by her tax basis?B) How much of Jenna's loss is further limited by her at-risk amount?C) How much of Jenna's loss is further limited by the passive activity loss rules?
Answer:
a) Jenna's tax basis = $45,000 + ($13,000 - $10,000) = $48,000
loss allocation = $65,000
loss limited by her tax basis = $65,000 - $48,000 = $17,000
b) Jenna's at risk loss = $48,000 - $13,000 = $35,000
c) Jenna's loss limited by passive activity = $35,000 - $4,000 = $31,000
The amount of loss limited by Jenna’s tax basis is $20,000; the amount of Jenna’s loss that is further limited by her at-risk amount is $10,000; and the amount of Jenna’s loss that is further limited by the passive activity loss rules is $31,000.
What is Tax -Basis?The basis for each partner's tax base is the sum of the partner's contribution amount and the share of the debt and any income earned. Distribution reduces the partner tax base.
Calculations of The Amount of Loss Limited Tax Basis, At-Risk Amount, and Passive Activity Loss Rules:
a) Amount of loss limited by Jenna’s tax basis is Loss allocated to Jena – Jena’s Tax Basis.
[tex]\rm\,Amount\; of \;loss \;limited\; by \;Jennas\; tax\; basis\; = \$65,000 - \$45,000[/tex]
Amount of loss limited by Jenna’s tax basis is $20,000
B) The amount of Jenna’s loss that is further limited by her at-risk amount can be calculated as follows: is At-risk limitation - Amount of loss limited by Jenna’s tax basis (1)
Where:
[tex]\rm\, At-risk\, limitation = Loss \,allocated \,to \,Jena - At\,-risk \,amount\, limitation\, \\\\= \,Loss\, allocated\, to\, Jena\, - (\,Tax \,basis\, - Nonrecourse\, Debt)[/tex]
[tex]= \$65,000 - (\$45,000 - \$10,000) \\= \$30,000[/tex]
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Amount of Jenna’s loss that is further limited by her at-risk amount
[tex]= \$30,000 - \$20,000\\ = \$10,000[/tex]
C) The amount of Jenna’s loss that is further limited by the passive activity loss rules can be calculated as follows:
Amount of Jenna’s loss that is further limited by the passive activity loss rules:
[tex]= \rm\,At-risk\; amount \;limitation - Passive \;income \\= Tax \;basis - Nonrecourse\; Debt) - Passive \;income \\= (\$45,000 - \$10,000) - \$4,000 \\= \$31,000[/tex]

5. In year 1, Peter and Shaline Johnsen moved into a home in a new subdivision. Theirs was one of the first homes in the subdivision. In year 1, they paid $2,700 in real property taxes to the state government, $1,490 to the developer of the subdivision for an assessment to pay for the sidewalks, and $1,430 for real property taxes on land they hold as an investment. What amount of property taxes are the Johnsens allowed to deduct assuming their itemized deductions exceed the standard deduction amount before considering any property tax deductions?
Deductible tax amount?
Answer:
1. a. Days of Personal Use:
= Days stayed personally + Days rented at a discount + Days rented to family
= 19 + 14 + 11 + 12
= 56 days
b. Days of rental use:
= Days rented to third parties at full rate + Days taken for repairs and maintenance
= 72 + 2
= 74 days
2. Deductible tax amount:
= Real property taxes to state government + Property taxes on land held as investment
= 2,700 + 1,430
= $4,130
The Johnsens may not deduct the amount paid for the assessment for the sidewalks as they are considered local benefits much like streets and these are not tax deductible.

During 2020, Jasmine (age 12) received $6,500 from a corporate bond. She also received $600 from a savings account established for her by her parents. Jasmine lives with her parents and she is their dependent. Assuming her parents' marginal tax rate is 24%, what is Jasmine's gross tax liability
Answer:
$605
Explanation:
Jasmine's total gross income = $6,500 + $600 = $7,100
standard deduction = $1,050 or earned income + $350. She she doesn't have earned income, then $1,050
taxable income = $7,100 - $1,050 = $6,050
tax liability = $6,050 x 10% (lowest bracket) = $605
Gomez runs a small pottery firm. He hires one helper at $11,000 per year, pays annual rent of $6,000 for his shop, and spends $22,000 per year on materials. He has $40,000 of his own funds invested in equipment (pottery wheels, kilns, and so forth) that could earn him $4,500 per year if alternatively invested. He has been offered $17,000 per year to work as a potter for a competitor. He estimates his entrepreneurial talents are worth $3,500 per year. Total annual revenue from pottery sales is $70,000. Calculate the accounting profit and the economic profit for Gomez’s pottery firm.
Answer:
$31000
$6000
Explanation:
Accounting profit= total revenue - explicit cost
Explicit cost includes the amount expended in running the business. They include rent , salary and cost of raw materials
explicit cost = $11,000 + $22,000 + $6,000 = $39,000
Accounting profit = $70,000 - $39,000 = $31,000
Economic profit = accounting profit - implicit cost
Implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives
It includes the amount he could have earned if he invested is money , his entrepreneur talent and salary he could have earned
$31,000 - $4500 - $17,000 - $3,500 = $6000
Gomez’s pottery firm's accounting profit is $31,000 while the economic profit is $6,000
To calculate the accounting profit for Gomez's pottery firm, one must subtract all the explicit costs (i.e., actual monetary expenses) from the total revenue.
Total Revenue = $70,000
[tex]~$Explicit Costs = Helper's salary + Rent + Materials[/tex]
[tex]~$Explicit Costs = \$11,000 + \$6,000 + \$22,000[/tex]
[tex]~$Explicit Costs = \$39,000[/tex]
[tex]~$Accounting Profit = Total Revenue - Explicit Costs[/tex]
[tex]~$Accounting Profit = \$70,000 - \$39,000[/tex]
[tex]Accounting Profit = \$31,000[/tex]
To calculate the economic profit, one needs to consider both explicit costs and implicit costs (i.e., opportunity costs).
[tex]~$Implicit Costs = Opportunity Cost of Equipment + Opportunity Cost of Working for Competitor + Entrepreneurial Talents[/tex]
Opportunity Cost of Equipment = $4,500 (income that could be earned alternatively)
Opportunity Cost of Working for Competitor = $17,000 (annual salary offered)
Entrepreneurial Talents = $3,500
[tex]~$Economic Profit = Accounting Profit - Implicit Costs[/tex]
[tex]~$Implicit Costs = \$4,500 + \$17,000 + \$3,500[/tex]
[tex]~$Implicit Costs = \$25,000[/tex]
[tex]~$Economic Profit = \$31,000 - \$25,000[/tex]
Thus, the accounting profit for Gomez's pottery firm is $31,000, and the economic profit is $6,000, the economic profit considers opportunity costs, providing a more comprehensive view of the firm's profitability.

The demand for spring water at the SLC WalMart is 600 liters per week. The setup cost for placing an order to replenish inventory is $25. The order is delivered by the supplier which charges WalMart $0.10/liter for the cost of transportation from the Rocky Mountains to SLC. This transportation cost increases the cost of water to $1.25/liter. The water loses its freshness while stored at the SLC WalMart. To account for this, the WalMart charges an annual holding cost of $2.6/liter.
Required:
a. Determine the WalMart's Economic Order Quantity (in liters)?
b. How often should WalMart order for water (in weeks) ?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the ideal order quantity a company should purchase to minimize inventory costs such as holding costs, shortage costs, and order costs.
Economic order quantity (EOQ)= √[(2*D*S)/H]
D= Demand in units
S= Order cost
H= Holding cost
Since:
D= 600*52= 31,200
S= $25
H= $2.6
Replacing:
EOQ= 2√[(2*31,200*25) / 2.6]
EOQ= 775 units
To calculate the time between orders, we need to use the following formula:
Time between orders= EOQ / Weekly demand
Timer between orders= 775 / 600
Time between orders= 1.3 weeks
Cathy's Towels sells three items (which it purchases from a supplier): bath towels, hand towels, and washcloths in a 4:3:2 mix (thus, a batch of 9 towels has 4 bath towels, 3 hand towels, and 2 washcloths). Each bath towel sells for $10 and costs $4, each hand towel sells for $5 and costs $2; and each washcloth sells for $2.50 and costs $1. The shop's annual fixed expenses are $324,000, and the income tax rate, t, is 40%. How many bath towels must the firm sell at the breakeven point
Answer:
36,000 baths
Explanation:
The computation of the bath towels that must the firm would sell at the break even point is shown below:
But before that the contribution margin per unit is
Particulars Bath towels Hand towels Wash towels
Selling price $10 $5 $2.5
Less: variable cost $4 $2 $1
Contribution margin $6 $3 $1.50
No of items in batch 4 3 2
Contribution margin per unit $24 $9 $3
Now the number of baths would be
= $324,000 ÷ ($24 + $9 + $3) × 4
= 36,000 baths
Sales revenue is forecasted to grow by 13% next year, forecasted net income is expected to be $30,000, and all current assets and current liabilities vary proportionally with sales. If $45,000 worth of net noncurrent assets are required to be purchased next year, what is the external financing needed
Answer:
17,320.5
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the external financing needed
Using this formula
External Financing Needed = Increase in current assets+Increase in non current assets-Increase in spontaneous liabilities -Retained earnings
External Financing Needed = (42,500*13%)+45,000-(24,650*13%)-30000
External Financing Needed = 5,525+45,000-3,204.5-30,000
External Financing Needed =17,320.5
Therefore the external financing needed will be
17,320.5
Lucky Company's direct labor information for the month of February is as follows: Actual direct labor hours worked (AQ) 60,000 Standard direct labor hours allowed (SQ) 62,500 Total payroll for direct labor $ 900,000 Direct labor efficiency variance $ 35,000 The standard direct labor rate per hour (SP) for February (rounded to two decimal places) was:
Answer:
$14.4 per hour
Explanation:
Given the above information, the standard direct labor rate per hour
is computed as
Standard direct labor rate per hour
= Total standard direct labor cost / Total standard direct labor hours worked
= (SP × SQ) / SQ
= $900,000 / 62,500
= $14.4 per hour
Therefore, the standard direct labor rate per hour is $14.4
Metropolitan Water Utilities purchases surface water from Elephant Butte Irrigation District at a cost of $100,000 per month in the months of February through September. Instead of paying monthly, the utility makes a single payment of $800,000 at the end of each calendar year for the water it used. The delayed payment essentially rep- resents a subsidy by Elephant Butte Irrigation Dis- trict to the water utility. At an interest rate of 0.25% per month, what is the amount of the subsidy
Answer:
The amount of the subsidy is $6,000.
Explanation:
Since the payment is made at the end of each calendar year and the months of usage are the months of February through September, this implies the payment was due at the end of September but dalayed for 3 months from the end of September to the end of December.
The amount of subsidy can therefore be calculated as follows:
Subsidy amount = Total utility bill * Interest rate per month * Number of months the payment is delayed = $800,000 * 0.25% * 3 = $6,000
Therefore, the amount of the subsidy is $6,000.
Discount Mart borrows $400,000 on July 1 with a short-term loan that has an annual interest rate of 6% payable on the first day of each subsequent quarter.

= Borrowed amount × rate of interest × given months ÷ Total months
= $400,000 × 6% × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $6,000
So this $6,000 represent an increase in liabilities and increase in expenses
hence, the correct option is c.
While Charles and Esther Kveragas were in a rented motel room at the Scottish Inns, Inc., in Knoxville, Tennessee, three intruders kicked open the door, shot Charles, and injured Esther. The intruders also took $3,000 belonging to the Kveragases. The Kveragases brought an action against the motel owners, claiming that the owners had been negligent in failing to provide adequately for the safety of the motel s guests. At trial, the evidence showed that the door had a hollow core and that it fit poorly into the door frame. There was no deadbolt lock on the door, although such locks were easily available and commonly used in motels. The only lock on the door was one fitted into the door handle, which was described as a grade three lock, although a security chain was attached to the door. The Kveragases had both locked and chained the door, but still, a single kick on the part of the intruders was all that was necessary to open it. Evidence at trial also indicated that a deadbolt lock would have withstood the force that was applied to the door.
Required:
Did the motel owners have a duty to protect their guests from criminal acts on the motel premises, and if so, did the owners breach that duty of care by failing to provide more secure locks on the doors of the motel rooms?
Answer:
yes they had a duty of protection to guests and they breached this duty
Explanation:
Did this motel have the duty to protect the Kveragas from this kind of activity?
The answer is yes under the tort law. This motel has a duty of care to safeguard the life, security and properties of others. This is a law obligation and the motel has to take necessary actions to follow through.
The kveragas were occupants of this motel, during ther stay here, this question has made us to understand that they were attacked by intruders and they also lost their properties in this attack. The motel did not fulfill its duty of care to the kveragas because the room they rented was not properly secured. The door did not have proper lock. An Insufficient and bad lock system is what gave this criminals entry and brought the occupants to harm.
Therefore it is evident that the motel owners breached there duty of care by not having a secure lock system.
