Answer:

The total capacity of the market in core products less the Digby's Deft is 10860 thousand units.

Explanation:

In order to completely answer the question, the complete question is found online. This question was missing some table attachments which are attached with it.

From the table, it is first noted that the core products are listed which are as below:

AxeBoltBuzzDeft Dim

Now as mentioned in the question, deft is to be ignored so the remaining options are:

AxeBoltBuzzDim

Now the capacities of these are included which are found from the table and are as follow:

Axe=2050

Bolt=1040

Buzz=1040

Dim=1300

So the total capacity of 1 shift is

Axe+Bolt+Buzz+Dim=2050+1040+1040+1300=5430 units

As there are two shifts running so the total capacity is 5430x2=10860

So the total capacity of market in core products less the Digby's Deft is 10860 thousand units.

You've observed the following returns on Crash-n-Burn Computer's stock over the past five years: 10 percent, -10 percent, 17 percent, 22 percent, and 10 percent. Suppose the average inflation rate over this period was 1.5 percent and the average T-bill rate over the period was 3 percent.
a. What was the average real return on Crash-n-Burn's stock?
b. What was the average nominal risk premium on Crash-n-Burn's stock?

Answers

Answer:

Crash-n-Burn Computers

a. The average real return on Crash-n-Burn's stock is:

= 8.3%

b. The average nominal risk premium on Crash-n-Burn's stock is:

= 6.8%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Average inflation rate = 1.5%

Average T-bill rate = 3%

Returns on stock:

Year 1 = 10%

Year 2 = -10%

Year 3 = 17%

Year 4 = 22%

Year 5 = 10%

Total returns  = 49%

Average returns = Total returns/number of years

= 9.8% (49%/5)

Average real returns

= Average returns on the stock minus the inflation rate

= 8.3% (9.8% - 1.5%)

Average nominal risk premium = return on the stock minus the return on the T-bill

= 9.8% - 3%

= 6.8%

Machinery purchased for $150,000 by Tom Brady Co. in 2010 was originally estimated to have a life of 12 years with a salvage value of $24,000 at the end of that time. Depreciation has been recorded for 7 years on this basis. In 2017, it is determined that the total estimated life should be 15 years with a salvage value of $18,000 at the end of that time. Assume straight-line depreciation.
Instructions:
Determine the depreciation expense for 2017.

Answers

Answer:

$7,312.50

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for 2017 is shown below:

Book Value is

= Cost - Accumulated Depreciation

= $150,000 - {[($150,000 - $24,000) ÷ 12 ] × 7y}

= $150,000 - [($126,000 ÷ 12 ) × 7]

= $150,000 - ($10,500 × 7)

= $150,000 - $73,500

= $76,500

Now the depreciation expense for 2017 :

= ($76,500 - $18,000) ÷ (15 - 7) years

= $58,500 ÷ 8 years

= $7,312.50

An even numbered card is chosen randomly from a set of cards labeled with the numbers 1 through 8. A second even numbered card is chosen after the first card is replaced. Are these dependent or independent events?
a.
dependent
b.
independent

Answers

Answer:

independent. This is a fun question. I never thought about how I would explain it before.

Explanation:

Can you think of anything that might influence the second even card being drawn?

Let's make the question a whole lot easier. Suppose you have a coin and it's a fair one just coming from the mint. Suppose you toss it and you get either heads or tails. Can you think of a reason why you should get the same thing again or put another way, can you guess what you are going to get next?If you can't then the tosses are independent of each other. You haven't replaced anything, like once you get a tails, you weight the coin so you can never get tails again. That would be a dependent event.If you can guess consistently, you better submit a written paper to a math journal.

Now go back your your question. You replaced the card. The odds are the same as for the first toss. Is there anything that has changed your mind about being able to guess.

You can't guess, so the events are independent.

2. (E) Cooking:$34,300 Churning: $39,200 Freezing:$24,500

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For administrative cost allocated to each operating department is

Cooking

= $560,000 × 2,940 ÷ (2,940 + 4,900 + 1,960)

= $168,000

Churning

= $560,000 × 4,900 ÷ (2,940 + 4,900 + 1,960)

= $280,000

Freezing

= $560,000 × 1,960 ÷ (2,940 + 4,900 + 1,960)

= $112,000

b. For maintenance cost allocated to each operating department is

Cooking

= $98,000 × 33,250 ÷ (33,250 + 38,000 23750)

= $34,300

Churning

= $98,000 × 38,000 ÷ (33,250 + 38,000 23750)

= $39,200

And, for freezing

= $98,000 × 23,750 ÷ (33,250 + 38,000 23750)

= $24,500

You have $100 you have $100 to invest. If you can earn 12% interest, about how long does it take for your $100 investment to grow to $200? Suppose the interest rate is just half that, at 6%. At half the interest rate, does it take twice as long to double your money? Why or why not? How long does it take

Answers

Answer:

8.33333 years ;

Yes, the time doubles.

Explanation:

Investment amount = principal = $100

Interest rate, r = 12%

Time taken for investment to grow to $200

Using the simple interest formula :

A = P(1 + rt) ; t = time taken ; A = final amount = $200

200 = 100(1 + 0.12t)

200 = 100 + 12t

200 - 100 = 12t

100 = 12t

t = 100 / 12

t = 8.333 years

Time taken, if rate, r = 6%

200 = 100(1 + 0.06t)

200 = 100 + 6t

200 - 100 = 6t

100 = 6t

t = 100 / 6

t = 16.6666 years

Carla Vista Company reports the following operating results for the month of August: sales $385,000 (units 5,500), variable costs $250,000, and fixed costs $94,000. Management is considering the following independent courses of action to increase net income. 1. Increase selling price by 10% with no change in total variable costs or units sold. 2. Reduce variable costs to 56% of sales. Compute the net income to be earned under each alternative. 1. Net Income $ 2. Net Income $ Which course of action will produce the higher net income

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1.  

Selling Price = Sales ÷  Units Sold

Current Selling Price = $385,000 ÷  5500

= $70

Now

Expected Selling Price per unit = $70 + ($70× 10%)

= $77

Now

Expected Sales = 5500 × $77

= $423,500

Now

Net Income = Sales - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost

= $423,500 - $250,000 - $94,000  

2.  

Sales = $385000

Variable cost = $385,000 × 56% = $215,600

Sales                     $385,000

Less: variable cost -$215,600

Contribution Margin $169,400

Les: fixed cost          -$94,000

Net Income               $75,400

As we can see that if there is an increase in Selling Price by 10% so it would produce highest Net Income.

What is the employee and company Occupational Privilege Tax for these employees? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

the employee and company Occupational Privilege Tax for these employees is $92.00 and $64.00 respectively

Explanation:

The computation of the  employee and company Occupational Privilege Tax for these employees is shown below:

The Total amount with held from employees is

= 16 × $5.75

= $92.00

And, the total amount to be paid by the employer is

Masterson, Inc., has 4.4 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $89.50, and the book value per share is $11.25. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $81 million, a coupon rate of 5.1%, and sells for 96.5% of par. The second issue has a face value of $53 million, a coupon rate of 5.8%, and sells for 106.5% of par. The first issue matures in 25 years, the second in 9 years. The most recent dividend was $4.28 and the dividend growth rate is 5.3%. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semi-annual payments. The tax rate is 21%.
a. What are the company's capital structure weights on a book value basis?
b. What are the company's capital structure weights on a market value basis?
c. Which are more relevant, the book or market value weights?

Answers

Answer:

Masterson, Inc.

1. The company's capital structure weights on a book value basis are:

Book Value Weights:

Equity = 0.27 or 27%

Debts = 0.73 0r 73%

2. The company's capital structure weights on market value basis are:

Market Value Weights:

Equity = 0.75 or 75%

Debts = 0.25 or 25%

3. The market value weights of Masterson's common stock and debts are more relevant because they represent a more current valuation of the equity and the debts.  It is easier to calculate the book value weights since the information is more readily available within the entity than the information on market weights.

a) Data and Calculations:              

Equity                                     Units                     Total Value

Outstanding common stock  4.4 million shares

Current share price              $89.50                  $393.8 million

Coupon rate =                         5.1%                       $4.131 million p.a.

Second bond:

 Face value                            53,000                   $53 million

 Market value                        53,000                   $54.445 million

Coupon rate =                        5.3%                      $2,809 million p.a.

Total book value of bonds    134,000                 $134 million

Total market value of bonds 134,000                 $132.61 million

Capital structure      Equity                    Bonds                 Total

Book value              $49.5 million          $134 million       $183.5 million

Market value           $393.8 million        $132.61 million  $526.41 million

Book Value Weights:

Equity = $49.5/$183.5 = 0.27 or 27%

Debts = $134/$183.5 = 0.73 0r 73%

Market Value Weights:

Equity = $393.8/$526.41 = 0.75 or 75%

Debts = $132.61/$526.41 = 0.25 or 25%

Consider the following statements about the step-down method of service department cost allocation: I. Under the step-down method, all service department costs are eventually allocated to production departments. II. The order in which service department costs are allocated is important. III. After a service department's costs have been allocated to other departments, no costs are re-circulated back to that service department. Which of the above statements is (are) correct?

a. I, II, and III.
b. I only.
c. I and II.
d. II only.
e. I and III.

Answers

Answer:

The correct statements under the step-down method are:

a. I, II, and III.

Explanation:

The step-down method of allocating the costs of service departments is one of the three methods in use.  The others include the direct method and the reciprocal method.  With the direct method, service departments' costs are directly allocated to the production departments without any allocation to a service department.  The reciprocal method is much more involved, using formulas and calculations.  The step-down method allocates the service departments' costs to all the other service and production departments, except itself.  This step is eventually followed until all the service departments' costs have been allocated to the production departments.

Economists sometimes describe the balance of trade as the balance of payments, because:___________

a. they are mistaking the flow of goods with the flow of money
b. each category of the current account balance involves a corresponding flow of payments in the same direction
c. each category of the current account balance involves a corresponding flow of payments in the opposite direction
d. its financial capital outflows are equal to the inflows

Answers

Answer: b. each category of the current account balance involves a corresponding flow of payments in the same direction

Explanation:

For every purchase made or sales that sold, a corresponding payment needs to be made or received.

The balance of payment therefore allows for us to be able to figure out the amount that was traded because it would be the payment received less receives.

Sparkle Metallurgy, Inc. has two service departments (Human Resources and Building Maintenance) and two production departments (Machining and Assembly). The company allocates Building Maintenance cost on the basis of square footage and Human Resources cost on the basis of employees. It believes that Building Maintenance provides more service than Human Resources. The square footage and employees in each department follow. Square Footage Employees Human Resources 4,000 10 Building Maintenance 10,000 15 Machining 15,000 40 Assembly 21,000 60 Assuming use of the step-down method, which of the following choices correctly denotes the number of square feet and employees over which the Building Maintenance cost and Human Resources cost would be allocated (i.e., spread)?
a. 19,000.
b. 44,000.
c. 50,000.
d. 63,000.

Answers

Answer:

B.40,000 square feet

Explanation:

Calculation to correctly denotes the number of square feet and employees over which the Building Maintenance cost and Human Resources cost would be allocated

Employees Human Resources 4,000

Machining 15,000

Assembly 21,000

Number of square feet 40,000

(4,000+15,000+21,000)

Therefore the number of square feet and employees over which the Building Maintenance cost and Human Resources cost would be allocated is 40,000

A synchronous decrease in energy prices and an increase in government spending will result in:
A) increases in output and a decrease in the price level in the long run.
B) Increase in short run aggregate supply and in aggregate demand
C) Increase in long run aggregate supply and a rightward shift in aggregate demand
D) A leftward shift in short run aggregated supply
E) Decrease aggregate demand and increase short run aggregate supply​

Answers

Answer:

B) Increase in short run aggregate supply and in aggregate demand

Explanation:

In the case when there is a rise in  the government spending  so it would be increases aggregate demand. As AD curve shifts to the rightward, that rise the level of the price and increase in GDP.

On the other hand, if there is a decreasing in energy prices so it decreased the production cost, which rise aggregate supply. As AS curve shifts rightward, due to this it decrease the price level and increase the GDP.

So, The net impact is a definite increase in GDP, but the impact on price level is non-certain. As price level of the short run is non-certain, so we are not able to predict long run impacts.

A synchronous decrease in energy prices and an increase in government spending will result in "increases in output and a decrease in the price level in the long run". The correct option is A.

A synchronous decrease in energy prices reduces production costs for businesses which is leading to an increase in short-run aggregate supply.

At the same time, an increase in government spending stimulates economic activity and boosts aggregate demand. As a result, both short-run aggregate supply and aggregate demand increase.

In the short run, this combination of factors can lead to an expansion in output and potentially a decrease in the price level due to the downward pressure on production costs.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Required:
a. Compute the inventory value of the units unsold in the hands of the consignee.
b. Compute the profit for the consignor for the units sold.
c. Compute the amount of cash that will be remitted by the consignee.

Answers

Answer:

A. $16,195

B. $7,621

C. $23,816

Explanation:

a. Computation for the inventory value of the units unsold in the hands of the consignee.

Inventory value of the units unsold

First step is to calculate the Total inventory value

Inventory cost $31,500

(70 * $450)

Add Freight $890

Total inventory value $32,390

($31,500+$890)

Now let calculate the Inventory value of the units unsold

Inventory value of units unsold =($32,390 / 2)

Inventory value of units unsold =$16,195

Therefore the inventory value of the units unsold in the hands of the consignee is $16,195

b. Computation for the profit for the consignor for the units sold

Sales $25,900

(35 * $740)

Less Cost of unit sold ($16,195)

($32,390 / 2)

Less Commission ($1,554)

($25,900 * 6%)

Less Advertising ($200)

Less Installation cost ($330)

Profit for the consignor $7,621

Therefore the profit for the consignor for the units sold will be $7,621

c. Computation for the amount of cash that will be remitted by the consignee.

Sales $25,900

Less Commission ($1,554)

($25,900 * 6%)

Less Advertising ($200)

Less Installation cost ($330)

Cash remitted $23,816

Therefore the amount of cash that will be remitted by the consignee is $23,816

Answers

Sales tax, because it is baught

A tax added to the cost of an item bought in a store is a sales tax. Thus, option D is correct.

What is a sales tax?

A sales tax is a fee that is paid to the government when specified goods and services are sold. Typically, laws permit the vendor to charge the customer the tax at the time of purchase.

Use taxes are typically used to describe taxes on goods and services that consumers pay directly to a governing authority. The sale and use tax is frequently exempted for some goods and services, including food, education, and medical. A sales tax is similar to a value-added tax (VAT) that is levied on products and services. Key distinctions can be found in the comparison with sales tax. The sale of this item is subject to a retail sales tax of 8.5%, which is shown on the cash register receipt.

Therefore, we can conclude that option D is correct.
