company is considering establishing a new machine to automate a packing process. The machine will save $ 50,000 in labor annually. The machine can be purchased for $ 250,000 today and will be used for 10 years. It has a salvage value of $5,000 at the end of its useful life. The new machine will require an annual maintenance cost of $ 11,000. The company has a minimum rate of return of 10%. What is the Net present worth and should they buy the machine
Answer:
NPV = $-8,434.17
The firm shouldn't buy the machine
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator:
Cash flow in year 0 = $-250,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 9 = $50,000 - $11,000 = $39,000
Cash flow in year 10 = $39,000 + $5,000 = $44,000
I = 10%
NPV = $-8,434.17
The NPV 8s negative and this indicates that the investment would be unprofitable. The firm shouldn't invest in the project.
To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute

The following costs are included in a recent summary of data for a company: advertising expense, $85,000; depreciation expense - factory building, $133,000; direct labor, $250,000; direct material used, $300,000; factory utilities, $105,000; and sales salaries expense, $150,000. Determine the dollar amount of conversion costs.
Answer:
Conversion costs= $488,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
depreciation expense - factory building, $133,000
direct labor, $250,000
factory utilities, $105,000
The conversion costs are the sum of direct labor and manufacturing overhead.
Manufacturing overhead= 133,000 + 105,000= 238,000
Direct labor= 250,000
Conversion costs= $488,000
A company used straight-line depreciation for an item of equipment that cost $15,350, had a salvage value of $3,200 and a six-year useful life. After depreciating the asset for three complete years, the salvage value was reduced to $1,535 but its total useful life remained the same. Determine the amount of depreciation to be charged against the equipment during each of the remaining years of its useful life: Multiple Choice $2,880. $5,672. $1,215. $2,580. $3,200.
Answer:
The correct answer is $2,580.
Explanation:
Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / No of years = ($15,350 - $3,200) / 6 years = $2,025 yearly depreciation expense.
Accumulated depreciation at Year 3 = $2,025 x 3 = $6,075
Net book value (NBV) becomes $15,350 - $6,075 = $9,275
New depreciation is ($9,275 - $1,535) / 3 years = $2,580 yearly depreciation expenses

In the market for lock washers, a perfectly competitive market, the current equilibrium price is $5 per box. Washer King, one of the many producers of washers, has a daily short-run total cost given by TC = 190 + 0.20Q + 0.0025Q2, where Q measures boxes of washers. Washer King's corresponding marginal cost is MC = 0.20 + 0.005Q. How many boxes of washers should Washer King produce per day to maximize profit?
Answer:
The number of boxes of washers Washer King should produce per day to maximize profit = 960 boxes.
And the corresponding maximum daily profit = $2,114
Explanation:
The daily, short-run total cost of producing Q boxes of the product is given as
TC = 190 + 0.20Q + 0.0025Q²
The unit price of the product = $5.
Total revenue = (Unit Price) × (Quantity sold) = 5Q
Profit = (Revenue) - (Total Cost)
Profit = 5Q - (190 + 0.20Q + 0.0025Q²)
Profit = P(Q) = -190 + 4.8Q - 0.0025Q²
To maximize the profits, we just obtain the point where the profit function reaches a Maximum.
At the maximum of a function, (dP/dQ) = 0 and (d²P/dQ²) < 0
Profit = P(Q) = -190 + 4.8Q - 0.0025Q²
(dP/dQ) = 4.8 - 0.005Q
At maximum point,
(dP/dQ) = 4.8 - 0.005Q = 0
Q = (4.8/0.005) = 960 boxes
(d²P/dQ²) = -0.005 < 0 (hence, showing that the this point corresponds to a maximum point truly)
Hence, the number of boxes of washers Washer King should produce per day to maximize profit = 960 boxes.
The corresponding maximum profit is then obtained from
P(960) = -190 + (4.8×960) - 0.0025(960²)
Maximum daily profit = $2,114

b. $995,000
c. $685,000
d. $652,500
Answer:
b. $995,000
Explanation:
The computation of the transaction price based on the expected value approach is shown below:
The formula is
= (Building cost of warehouse + bonus) × probability percentage
Date Calculation Amount
July 31, 2018 ($950,000+$50,000) × 0.65 $650,000
August 7, 2018 ($950,000+$40,000) × 0.25 $247,500
August 14, 2018 ($950,000+$30,000) × 0.05 $49,000
August 21, 2018 ($950,000+$20,000) × 0.05 $48,500
Total $995,000
Since the bonus is reduced $10,000 each week so $10,000 is deducted for every delayed week

On December 31, 2019, Irey Co. has $3,000,000 of short-term notes payable due on February 14, 2020. On February 8, 2020, Irey borrowed $1,200,000 (long-term loan) from County Bank and used $1,000,000 additional cash to liquidate $2,200,000 of the short-term notes payable. The amount of the short-term notes payable that should be reported as current liabilities on the December 31, 2019 balance sheet which is issued on March 5, 2020 is
Answer:
$1,800,000
Explanation:
Given short term notes payable = $3,000,000
Total amount used to liquidate short term notes = $2,200,000
Balance = $3,000,000 - $2,200,000 = $800,000
The additional $1,200,000 which is borrowed from Country Bank will not increase the short term notes payable because it's a long term credit
The additional $1,000,000 cash used will now be added to the balance amount
Amount to be reported as current liabilities = $1,000,000 + $800,000
= $1,800,000
Therefore the amount of the short-term notes payable that should be reported as current liabilities on the December 31, 2019 balance sheet which is issued on March 5, 2020 is $1,800,000
"Vaughn Corporation is considering the issue of commercial paper and would like to know the yield it should offer on its commercial paper. The corporation believes that a 0.2 percent credit risk premium, a 0.1 percent liquidity premium, and a 0.3 percent tax adjustment are necessary to sell its commercial paper to investors. Furthermore, annualized T-bill rates are 7 percent. Based on this information, Vaughn should offer ____ percent on its commercial paper."
Answer:
7.6 percent
Explanation:
Vaughn should offer 7.6 percent on its commercial paper.
This is calculated by adding the 0.2 credit risk premium to 0.1 percent liquidity premium + 0.3 percent tax adjustment + 7 percent annualized t bills rate.
= 0.1 + 0.2 + 0.3 + 7
= 7.6
Based on this Vaughn would offer 7.6 percent on its commercial paper.
Assume that the electricity from nuclear power has become a preferred source of electricity because it is cleaner than electricity produced by burning coal. At the same time, new regulations make it more expensive to produce electricity from nuclear power. What are the consequences?
Answer:
The answer to this question can be described as follows:
Explanation:
In the given statement some information is missing that is choices so, the correct choice can be described as follows:
The most important source of electricity is nuclear energy. It will boost demand for the nuclear energy century of electric power. The demand curve also is moving to the right. At the very same time, it increases in power generation rates would also increase the cost of energy generation via nuclear power plant. This will lead to a shift to the left. The nuclear demand curve will change to just the right and the nuclear power source will switch to the left. It will lead to an increase in the balance cost value with an uncertain shift in the balance quantities.Pharoah Company has had 4 years of record earnings. Due to this success, the market price of its 500,000 shares of $4 par value common stock has increased from $15 per share to $55. During this period, paid-in capital remained the same at $6,000,000. Retained earnings increased from $4,500,000 to $30,000,000. CEO Don Ames is considering either (1) a 15% stock dividend or (2) a 2-for-1 stock split. He asks you to show the before-and-after effects of each option on (a) retained earnings, (b) total stockholders’ equity, and (c) par value per share.
Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
1) 15% Stock Dividend-
Retained Earnings = Increase Value of Retained Earnings - (Total Shares × 15% Stock Dividend × Increase Value of Per Share)
= $30,000,000 - (500,000 × 15% × $55)
= $30,000,000 - $4,125,000
= $25,875,000
2) 2-for-1 stock split-
Retained earnings = $30,000,000
The 2-for-1 stock split will not impact retained earnings.
a and b) The before, after effects of each option are shown in the attachment below
c) Par value per share
Par value per share of stock dividend = $4
Par value per share of 2-for-1 stock split = $4 ÷ 2 = $2
According to the analysis, stock dividend will not make any impact.

Nicholas Health Systems recently reported an EBITDA of $25.0 million and net income of $15.8 million. It had $2.0 million of interest expense, and its federal tax rate was 21% (ignore any possible state corporate taxes). What was its charge for depreciation and amortization
Answer:
Depreciation and Amortization= $3,000,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Nicholas Health Systems recently reported an EBITDA of $25.0 million and a net income of $15.8 million. It had $2.0 million of interest expense, and its federal tax rate was 21%
We need to reverse engineer the net income calculation to determine the depreciation and amortization:
EBT= net income/(1-t)
EBT= 15,800,000/(1 - 0.21)
EBT= 20,000,000
EBIT= EBT + Interest
EBIT= 20,000,000 + 2,000,000
EBIT= 22,000,000
Now, we can determine D and A:
D and A= EBITDA - EBIT
DA= 25,000,000 - 22,000,000
DA= 3,000,000

Answer:
1.
Dr. Investment Account $17,000
Cr. Gain on Sale $17,000
2.
Dr. retained Earning $17,000
Cr. Gain on Sale $17,000
Explanation:
1.
If an assets is sold more than the book value, then there is a gain on the sales of asset.
Gain on Sale = Sales Proceeds - Book value of Investment = $94,000 - $77,000 = $17,000
As sales proceeds of $94,000 are credited in the Investment account, which needs to be credited by $77,000 only. The excessive amount of $17,000 should be recorded in the Gain on sale account.
2.
Error is not discovered until 2022 and earning for 2021 was transferred to retained earning. So, adjustment should me made in the retained earnings to eliminate the effect.
On January 1, 2019, Broker Corp. issued $2,200,000 par value 9%, 9-year bonds which pay interest each December 31. If the market rate of interest was 11%, what was the issue price of the bonds? (The present value factor for $1 in 9 periods at 9% is 0.4604 and at 11% is 0.3909. The present value of an annuity of $1 factor for 9 periods at 9% is 5.9952 and at 11% is 5.5370.)
Answer:
$ 1,956,306.00
Explanation:
The issue price of the bonds issued is the present value of all cash flows promised by the bonds discounted using the market interest rate of 11%.
The cash flows which comprise of annual coupon payment for nine years as well as the repayment of the face value at the end of the ninth year as computed thus:
annual coupon payment=face value*coupon rate=$2,200,000*9%=$198,000.00
The present value of $198,000 for nine years= 198,000*5.5370=$ 1,096,326
The present of $2,200,000 at the end of nine years=0.3909*2,200,000=$ 859,980.00
Total present values=$ 859,980+$ 1,096,326=$1,956,306.00

Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a bond with 25 years to maturity and a semiannual coupon rate of 4 percent 3 years ago. The bond currently sells for 108 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 22 percent. The book value of the debt issue is $30 million. In addition, the company has a second debt issue on the market, a zero coupon bond with 10 years left to maturity; the book value of this issue is $15 million, and the bonds sell for 73 percent of par. a.What is the company’s total book value of debt? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g. 1,234,567.)b.What is the company’s total market value of debt? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g. 1,234,567.)c.What is your best estimate of the aftertax cost of debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
Explanation:
a.What is the pre-tax cost of debt?This question is basically asking for the bond’s current yield to maturity, which is the pre-tax cost of long term debt in the capital markets for this company today.Price = 1.08 * 1000 = 1080+/- PV23 * 2 = 46 N.10 * 1000 = 100 / 2 = 50 PMT1000 FVSolve for i/y = 4.5801 is the semi-annual yield to maturity * 2 = 9.1601% annual YTM
b.What is the after-tax cost of debt?9.1601 * (1 - .35) = 5.9541 after tax cost of debt.This is the true cost of debt to the company because the company gets a tax deduction (a tax shield!) for paying interest on its debt.
January 1, 2021, Woody Forrest Corporation granted executive stock options to purchase 41,000 of its common shares at $9 each. The market price of common stock was $24 per share on December 31, 2021, and averaged $12 per share during the year then ended. There was no change in the 164,000 shares of outstanding common stock during the year. Net income for the year was $39,000. The number of shares to be used in computing diluted earnings per share for the quarter is:
Answer:
174,250 shares
Explanation:
The computation of the number of shares to be used in computing diluted earnings per share is shown below:
Proceeds from exercise of options (a) $369,000 (41,000 shares × $9)
Used to repurchased for common stock (b) 30,750 shares (41,000 shares × $9 ÷ $12)
Number of shares for exercised (c) 41,000 shares
Less: repurchased shares (d) -30,750 shares
Diluted common shares {e = c - d} 10,250 shares
Add: Common shares (f) 164,000 shares
Total number of shares for diluted earning per share 174,250 shares

The members of a wedding party have approached Imperial Jewelers about buying 26 of these gold bracelets for the discounted price of $367.00 each. The members of the wedding party would like special filigree applied to the bracelets that would require Imperial Jewelers to buy a special tool for $457 and that would increase the direct materials cost per bracelet by $7. The special tool would have no other use once the special order is completed. To analyze this special order opportunity, Imperial Jewelers has determined that most of its manufacturing overhead is fixed and unaffected by variations in how much jewelry is produced in any given period. However, $8.00 of the overhead is variable with respect to the number of bracelets produced. The company also believes that accepting this order would have no effect on its ability to produce and sell jewelry to other customers. Furthermore, the company could fulfill the wedding party’s order using its existing manufacturing capacity.
Answer:
this special order will result in a $2,637 profit, so the company should accept it
Explanation:
special order for 26 gold bracelets
discounted price of $367 per unit
normal production costs:
direct materials $143direct labor $90manufacturing overhead $31total $264costs related to the special order
increase in direct materials = $7 per unit, total of $150 per unit
direct labor $90 per unit
variable overhead = $8 per unit
machine used for this project only $457
revenue generated by special order:
total revenue $9,542
- variable costs ($6,448)
direct materials $3,900direct labor $2,340variable overhead $208- special machine ($457)
profit from special order $2,637
The three service departments (indirect costs) are payroll, sales supervision and maintenance. The actual costs of these service departments are as follows:
Payroll Sales Supervision Maintenance
Salaries and wages $41,000 $80,000 $52,000
Office supplies $3,500 $1,600 $400
Supplies 0 $2,400 $7,500
The two operating departments and their statistics are as follows:
Square Footage Number of Employees Net Assets
Machining 14,500 78 $ 420,000
Assembly 46,000 42 280,000
If you allocate payroll department costs by number of employees then how much payroll cost is allocated to the Machining Department?
Answer:
$26,700
Explanation:
The solution of allocation of cost to machining department is provided below:-
First we need to find out the total payroll cost and total number of employees to reach the allocation of cost to machining department which is here below:-
Total Payroll costs = Payroll of salaries and wages + Payroll of office supplies
= $41,000 + $3,500
= $44,500
Total Number of employees = Machining number of employees + Assembly number of employees
= 78 + 52
= 130
Allocation of cost to Machining Department = Total Payroll costs ÷ Total Number of employees × Machining number of employees
= 44,500 ÷ 130 × 78
= $26,700
To reach allocation of cost to machining department we simply put the values into formula.
The relationship between recycling, economics, and energy consumption is demonstrated in the case of aluminum, where ________. it costs more than 10 times as much to produce items from recycled aluminum than from virgin ore the U.S. failure to recycle aluminum has caused energy to be lost in mining new ore it requires over 20 times more energy to mine and extract aluminum from bauxite ore than from recycled materials all of the metal recycling industries in the United States went bankrupt by 2009 new cheap mining technologies and huge newly discovered aluminum deposits have made recycling unprofitable
Answer:
It requires over 20 times more energy to mine and extract aluminum from bauxite ore than from recycled materials.
Explanation:
The relationship between recycling, economics, and energy consumption is demonstrated in the case of aluminum, where it requires over 20 times more energy to mine and extract aluminum from bauxite ore than from recycled materials.
Also, the relationship between recycling, economics, and energy consumption is demonstrated in the case of aluminum, where energy expended to mine and produce items from virgin ore is saved by recycling for about 95%.
Recycling is one of the most effective ways of prolonging our supply of mineral resources.
Breckenridge Ski and Snow Board Rental Co. charges 67 for a one day rental. At that price they average renting 159 sets of apparatus. Their yield management consultant recommended they lower their price to 56. At that price the consultant expects their average daily rental will be 205 sets of apparatus. At those prices and demand, what elasticity of demand can be expected? (Solve to two decimal places.)
Answer:
Price elasticity of demand = 1.76
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand (PED) is the degree of responsiveness of demand to a change in price.
Where a percentage change in price produces a more than a proportional change in quantity, we say the product is price elastic. On the other hand, where a change in price produces a less than a proportional change in quantity demand, then demand is price inelastic
PED is computed as follows:
PED = % change in quantity /% change in Price
% change in demand = (56- 67)/67 × 100 = 28.93081761
% change in price =16.41791045
PED = 28.93/16.4179 = 1.762
Price elasticity of demand = 1.76
Public policy toward monopolies Suppose that a government that is skeptical of efforts to regulate prices charged by private companies is nevertheless concerned that an electric utility company is taking advantage of consumers with unfair pricing policies. Which of the following policy options might most effectively enable the government to achieve its objectives in this situation?
A. Do nothing at all.
B. Use antitrust laws to increase competition.
C. Turn the company into a public enterprise.
D. Regulate the firm's pricing behavior.
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
State Owned Enterprises are those enterprises that is legally taken by the government. This entity is formed by the government to take authority over the commercial activities. It is also known as SOE and Government Owned Corporations (GOC). These enterprises are formed to function on account of government. It helps in avoiding the unfair pricing policies by private companies in some markets.
In the given situation, the government should use the policy of turning the company into a public enterprise through SOE policy. With this, the government will be able to regulate the prices and avoid unfair pricing by the private companies.
So, the correct answer is option C.
