Joe Jenkins, the owner of Jenkins Manufacturing, is considering whether to produce a new product. Joe will be selling the product for a price of $70 per unit. If he uses the current equipment, Joe estimates the fixed costs per year to be $40,000 and variable costs for each unit produced to be $50. However, Joe is considering the purchase of new equipment that would produce the product more efficiently. Joe’s fixed cost would be raised to $60,000 per year, but the variable cost would be reduced to $25 per unit. If Joe's demand forecast is 900 units, should Joe produce the product using the existing or the new equipment? Produce using the existing equipment. Produce using the new equipment. Does not matter, which equipment is used. The product should not be produced at all.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jenkins Manufacturing

Joe should produce using the new equipment.

Explanation:

a) Costs incurred using the old equipment:

Variable costs = $45,000 ($50 x 900)

Fixed costs = $40,000

Total costs = $85,000

Operating Loss = $22,000 ($63,000 - 85,000)

b) Costs incurred using the new equipment:

Variable costs = $22,500 ($25 x 900)

Fixed costs = $60,000

Total costs = $82,500

Operating Loss = $19,500 ($63,000 - 82,500)

Production using the new equipment would reduce the operating loss by $2,500.

Answer 2

The company should produce by using the new equipment.

Based on thw information given, the cost that's incurred using the old equipment will be

Variable costs = ($50 x 900) = $45,000

Fixed costs = $40,000

Total costs = Fixed cost + Variable cost

= $40000 + $45,000

= $85,000

Operating Loss will be:

= ($63,000 - 85,000) = -$22000

The costs incurred using the new equipment will be:

Variable costs = ($25 x 900) = $22,500

Fixed costs = $60,000

Total costs = $60000 + $22500 = $82,500

Operating Loss = ($63,000 - 82,500) = -$19,500

Based on the calculation, the company should produce by using the new equipment.

Answers

Answer:

a. all firms in any industry can earn short-run but not necessarily long-run positive economic profit. 

Explanation:

A firm economic profit if its accounting profit is greater than opportunity cost.

A firm earns accounting profit if its total revenue is greater than its total explicit cost.

A monopoly and oligopoly can earn positive economic profit in the short and long run because the industries have high barriers to entry and exit of firms.

On the other hand, a perfect competitive industry can earn only economic profit in the short run. Because of low barriers to entry of firms, if a firm is earning economic profit, in the long run new firms would enter into the industry and drive economic profit to zero.

Answers

Answer:

(a) $33750000 (b) $11250000 (c) $22500000

Explanation:

Solution

(a) How much would Ziegler Inc. total income of operating  increase.

Now,

Units * (Cost of purchased from outside supplier - Variable cost)

Thus,

75000 * ($1350 - $900) = $33750000

(b) How much would the Instrument Division's operating income increase

Now,

The Units * (Cost of purchased from outside supplier - Transfer Price)

So,

75000 units * ($1350 - $1200) = $11250000

(C) How much would the Components Division's operating income increase?

Now,

Units * (Transfer Price - Variable cost)

75000 units * ($1200 - $900) = $22500000

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of ROI for each year of the asset's life and residual income each year is shown below:-

Year            Investment base              ROI                   Residual income

1                   $2,950,000                       8%                  -$233,500

2                  $2,212,500                          11%                 -$233,500

3                   $1,475,000                          17%                  -$115,500

4                   $737,500                             34%                 -$56,500

ROI = Net income ÷ Total investment × 100

Net Income = Cash flow - Depreciation

Residual income = Net income - (Investment × Cost of capital)

Depreciation = Investment base ÷ 4 years

The return on investment and the residual income can be find out by using the excel spreadsheet. Kindly find it in the attachment

Explanation:

As per the given question the solution of direct material cost assigned to good units​ completed is provided below:-

To reach Cost transferred out we need to follow some steps which is following below:-

Step 1. Cost per unit = cost of material used ÷ Units started

= $300,000 ÷ 12,500

= $24

Now,

Step 2. Goods units completed = Started units × Cost per unit

= 6,250 × $24

= $150,000

Step 3. Normal spoilage = Cards units × Cost per unit

= 4,000 × $24

= $96,000

and finally

Cost transferred out = Goods units completed + Normal spoilage

= $150,000 + $96,000

= $246,000

To reach allocation of Cost transferred out we simply put the values into formula.

Bannister Co. is thinking about having one of its products manufactured by a subcontractor. Currently, the cost of manufacturing 1,000 units follows: Direct material $ 45,000 Direct labor 30,000 Factory overhead (30% is variable) 98,000 If Bannister can buy 1,000 units from an outside supplier for $100,000, it should: Multiple Choice Make the product because current factory overhead is less than $100,000. Make the product because the cost of direct material plus direct labor of manufacturing is less than $100,000. Buy the product because the total incremental costs of manufacturing are greater than $100,000. Buy the product because total fixed and variable manufacturing costs are greater than $100,000. Make the product because factory overhead is a sunk cost.

Answers

Answer:

Buy the product because the total incremental costs of manufacturing are greater than $100,000.

Explanation:

Relevant cost of making the product = 45000 +30,000 + (30%× 98,000)

                                                          =$ 104,400

Cost of buying the product = $100,000

Difference in cost = 104,400- $100,000 =  $4,400.

Note the balance of 70% of the fixed manufacturing overhead id is a sunk cost which would be incurred which ever decision is taken.

The incremental cost of making is greater the cost of buying by $4,400. To buy from the outside supplier would mean Bannister Co saving $4,400

Kelly’s Jewelry has the following transactions during the year: total jewelry sales = $640,000; sales discounts = $14,500; sales returns = $39,000; sales allowances = $19,000. In addition, at the end of the year the company estimates the following transactions associated with jewelry sales in the current year will occur next year: sales discounts = $1,450; sales returns = $4,680; sales allowances = $2,530. Compute net sales.

Answers

Answer:

$559,020

Explanation:

The computation of net sales is shown below:-

Total sales = $640,000

Sales discount = $14,500 + $1,450

= $15,950

Sales return = $39,000 + $4,680

= $43,680

Sales allowance = $19,000 + $2,530

= $21,350

So,

Net sales = Total sales - Sales discount - Sales return - Sales allowance

= $640,000 - $15,950 - $43,680 - $21,350

= $559,020

Therefore for computing the net sales we simply applied the above formula.

A manufacturing company prepays its insurance coverage for a three-year period. The premium for the three years is $2,700 and is paid at the beginning of the first year. Eighty percent of the premium applies to manufacturing operations and 20% applies to selling and administrative activities. What amounts should be considered product and period costs respectively for the first full year of coverage?

Answers

Answer:

$720 and $180

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Premium for 3 years = $2,700

So, premium for 1 year = $2,700 ÷ 3 = $900 per year

Manufacturing operation percentage = 80%

Selling and administrative operation percentage = 20%

So, Premium for manufacturing operation = $900 × 80% = $720

And Premium for selling and admin operation = $900 × 20% = $180

The net present value of the proposed project is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

-$18,207

Explanation:

Net present value is the Net value all cash inflows and outflows in present value term. All the cash flows are discounted using a required rate of return.

Net Present Value = Initial Investment + Present value of reduced Labor and other costs

Net Present value = -$180,000 + $46,000( 1 - ( 1 + 13% )^-5 / 13% )

Net Present value = -$180,000 +  161,793

Net Present value = -$18,207

Assume price exceeds average variable cost over the relevant range of demand. If a monopolistically competitive firm is producing at an output where marginal revenue is $23 and marginal cost is $19, then to maximize profits the firm should A) shut down. B) continue to produce the same quantity. C) decrease output. D) increase output.

Answers

Answer:D) increase output.

Explanation:

The marginal cost  for production and marginal revenue are measures that businesses  use in  determining  the amount of output and the price of  a product that will enable them to maximize profits.

When the marginal revenues  are greater than the marginal cost of production, then the firm is making profit per unit  and should increase its production so as to make  more output until profit is attained.  When Marginal Revenue are lower or less than the marginal cost of production, then the firm is making a loss per unit  and should decrease its production.

Here,  competitive firm is producing at an output where marginal revenue is $23 and marginal cost is $19, then to maximize profits the firm should increase output .

If Brenmar reduces its average collection period to 15 ​days, what will be its new level of accounts​ receivable? c. ​Brenmar's inventory turnover ratio is 9.2 times. What is the level of​ Brenmar's inventories?

Answers

Answer:

a. 31.70 days

b. $266,054.79

c. $667,608.70

Explanation:

a. If​ Brenmar's accounts receivable equal $ 562 comma 300​, what is its average collection​ period?

Credit sales = $8,300,000 * 78% = $6,474,000

Average collection​ period = (Accounts receivable / Credit sales) * 365 = ($562,300 / $6,474,000) * 365 = 31.70 days

b. If Brenmar reduces its average collection period to 15 ​days, what will be its new level of accounts​ receivable?

Average Collection Period=365*Account Receivables/Credit Sales

New Account Receivables =Average Collection Period * (Credit Sales / 365) = 15 * ($6,474,000 / 365) = $266,054.79

c. ​Brenmar's inventory turnover ratio is 9.2 times. What is the level of​ Brenmar's inventories?

Gross Profit = Sales * Gross Profit Margin = $8,300,000 * 26% = $2,158,000

Cost of goods sold = Sales - Gross Profit = $8,300,000 - 2,158,000 = $6,142,000

Inventory = Cost of goods sold / Inventory Turnover Ratio = $6,142,000 / 9.2 = $667,608.70

Explanation:

Solution

(a)In a survey of 1,364 people, 395 were females who used social media and 232 did not. of males 232 use social media and 355 did not

To make or develop a probability table, take each group and divide their number by their total for example female that use social media is 395 of a total of 1364

395/1364 =0.2896

The probability that a woman uses social media in the survey is 0.2896

so,

                                  A              B              T

Female                  0.2896       0.2133      0.5029

Male                      0.2368       0.2603     0.4971

Total                      0.5264      0.4736       1.00

(b) To find the probability  of a surveyed person being a female, we divivde the total number of females by the whole number, shown below

686/1364 = 0.5029

(c)Conditional probability is defined using the formula which is shown below:

P(A/B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)-------(1)

Where P(A∩B) is the probability of females that use social media 0.2896 and P(B) is the total female probability which is 0.5029

Now we substitute the values in the equation 1 and calculate the probability as shown below:

P(A/B) = 0.2896/0.5029 =0.5758

the conditional probability that are surveyed person is female and uses social media is 0.5758

(d) In this case they are dependent  because the gender is segregated as social media user or not as asocial media worker. the probability and variable is tied to it

The annual effective rate is

=10000 * (1+I)^6 = 13,775.75

i = 5.48%

Answer:

5.48%

Explanation:

Effective interest rate is the actual interest rate that a investor receives on investment or a borrower pays on loan including the compounding effect.

Here we have two possibilities

Two consecutive 3 year CDs:

Future value  = 10,000 x ( 1 + ( 5%/4 ) )^12 x ( 1 + ( 5%/4 ) )^12 = $13, 473.51

One 5 year CD and a 1 year CD:

Future value  = 10,000 x ( 1 + ( 5.65%/4 ) )^20 x ( 1 + ( 4%/4 ) )^4 = $13,775.75

As $13,775.75 is the greater the investor will prefer this combination.

Now calculate the Effective interest rate

$10,000 x ( 1 + i )^6 = 13,775.75

i = 5.48%

Byron Books Inc. recently reported $6 million of net income. Its EBIT was $12.6 million, and its tax rate was 40%. What was its interest expense? [Hint: Write out the headings for an income statement, and then fill in the known values. Then divide $6 million of net income by (1 - T) = 0.6 to find the pretax income. The difference between EBIT and taxable income must be interest expense. Use this same procedure to complete similar problems.] Write out your answer completely. For example, 25 million should be entered as 25,000,000. Round your answer to the nearest dollar, if necessary. Do not round intermediate calculations.

A. 14.5515 B. <8.8975 C. >13.4983 D. 12.5050

Answers

Answer:

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%  

Explanation:

As per Interest Rate Parity Theory

Spot Rate : 1$ = 100

Forward Rate : 1 $ = 110

r = 9/12

As per interest rate parity, forward rate = Spot rate(1+Interest rate Japan)/(1+Interest rate US)

Forward rate = Spot rate *(1+ iD)/(1+iF)

110 / 100 = (1 + Japan Interest Rate * 9 /12)  / 1.01125

1.1 * 1.01125 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

1.112375 = 1 + Japan Interest Rate * 0.75

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 1.112375 - 1

Japan Interest Rate * 0.75 = 0.112375

Japan Interest Rate = 0.112375 / 0.75

Japan Interest Rate = 0.15%

3. What is theremaining obligation on January 1, 2010 after the first payment hasbeen made?

Answers

Answer:

1. $37,907,868

2. $3,790,787

3. $31,698,654

Explanation:

The cost of the  trucks according to IAS 16, is the amount of cash or cash equivalent paid or the fair value of the other consideration given to acquire an asset at the time of its acquisition.

Thus=, we need to find the Fair Value or Present Value of the Note as Follows:

Pmt = $10,000,000

P/yr = 1

i = 10%

N = 5

Pv = ?

Pv = 37,907,868

Therefore Alden will record $37,907,868 as a debit to their equipment account and as a credit to their notes payable

Interest on First Payment =  $37,907,868×10%

                                          = $3,790,787

Remaining Obligation = $37,907,868 - $6,209,213 (Capital Portion) - $3,790,787 (Interest Portion)

                                     = $31,698,654
