A company manufactures various sized plastic bottles for its medicinal product. The manufacturing cost for small bottles is $67 per unit (100 bottles), including fixed costs of $22 per unit. A proposal is offered to purchase small bottles from an outside source for $35 per unit, plus $5 per unit for freight. Prepare a differential analysis dated March 30 to determine whether the company should make (Alternative 1) or buy (Alternative 2) the bottles, assuming that fixed costs are unaffected by the decision. If an amount is zero, enter "0". For those boxes in which you must enter subtracted or negative numbers use a minus sign.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The company should buy from an outside source rahter than manufacturing because each bottle manufactured costs $5 more.

Explanation:

Differential Analysis

                                                          Make            Buy

Manufacturing Cost per bottle         $ 67

Purchasing Cost per bottle                                  $35

Freight per bottle                                                  $ 5

Fixed Costs                                                            $ 22  

Total                                                   $ 67              $62  

The company should buy the bottles from the  outside source because the manufacturing costs are higher than the purchasing costs and the fixed costs.

The fixed costs are the irrelevant costs that will continue whether bottles are manufactured or purchased.

Porter Resources Company acquired a tract of land containing an extractable natural resource. Porter is required by its purchase contract to restore the land to a condition suitable for recreational use after it has extracted the natural resource. Geological surveys estimate that the recoverable reserves will be 2,000,000 tons, and that the land will have a value of $1,000,000 after restoration. Relevant cost information follows:
Land $7,500,000
Estimated restoration costs 1,500,000
If Porter maintains no inventories of extracted material, what should be the charge to depletion expense per ton of extracted material?

Answers

Answer:

A. $4

Explanation:

The computation of amount of depletion per ton is shown below:-

Depletion per ton = (Acquisition cost of land + Estimated restoration costs- Salvage value) ÷ Tons of recoverable reserves

= ($7,500,000 + $1,500,000 - $1,000,000) ÷ 2,000,000 tons

= (9,000,000 - $1,000,000) ÷ 2,000,000 tons

= $8,000,000 ÷ 2,000,000 tons

= $4

Therefore for computing the depletion per ton we simply applied the above formula.

Regulatory focus theory suggests that consumers will react differently depending on which broad set of motives is more salient. Name and describe the two prominent sets of motives and describe how consumers will react when each set of motives is more noticeable. Use a specific product or service to explain your answer.

Answers

i don’t exactly know

Two prominent sets of motives under regulatory focus theory are termed Promotion and prevention.

What is regulatory focus theory?

According to the regulatory focus hypothesis, people can work toward objectives with either a promotion or a preventive emphasis. People who aim for advancement interpret pleasure as the accomplishment of their aims, ambitions, and aspirations, and interpret suffering as their absence.

Motives assume that emotional trade-offs between both the coexisting motivational systems on promotion and prevention will always happen. Promotion-oriented people are opportunistic and look for real experiences as motivation to develop action-oriented objectives, which are necessary to getting outcomes.

People who have a prevention orientation are extremely optimistic and see keeping things as they are and preventing bad things from happening as their defining and overriding motives.

The jackpot is $35,000,000, paid in eight equal annual payments. The first payment on the lottery jackpot will be made today. In present value terms, you really won ________ assuming annual interest rate of 6.50%.

Answers

Answer:

$812.49 and $28,369,687.5

Explanation:

Let us assume the annual payments be X

Sale of ordinary annuity = X × PVAF factor

$4,947.11 = X  × PVAF(6.5%, 8 years)

$4,947.11 = 6.0888 × X

X = $812.49

And,

The Present value is

Present value = Annual payments + Annual payments × PVAF factor

= $4,375,000 + $4,375,000 × PVAF(6.5%, 7 years)

= $4,375,000 + $4,375,000 × 5.4845

= $28,369,687.5

The $4,375,000 is come from

Discuss the different roles played by the qualitative and quantitative approaches to managerial decision making. Why is it important for a manager or decision maker to have a good understanding of both of these approaches to decision making? Give an example of when the qualitative approach might be more appropriate and another example of when the quantitative approach might be more appropriate.

Answers

Explanation:

Regarding the management decision-making process, there are two different approaches that the manager must know and know how to use in certain situations.

The qualitative approach is one that is based on experimental knowledge of various factors involved in decision making, such as interpersonal connections that occur in the work environment, in this approach it is necessary that the manager has an intuition and accurate perception of the organization as a whole before making an important decision

The quantitative approach is one that uses mathematical statistics for decision making, generally works best for solving measurable problems, and for this reason can be used by a manager without much direct experience.

The qualitative approach may be more appropriate in a situation where a manager needs to solve problems related to situations of conflict between organizational departments, because in this scenario it is necessary to have knowledge of factors that generate the complex interaction between people.

The quantitative approach can be more useful in a scenario where it needs to analyze which are the most profitable departments in the organization and what is the probability of each department generating profits in the company, because in this case accounting data are used to support decision making.

Square Block Company is comparing two different capital structures: An all-equity plan (Plan I) and a levered plan (Plan II). Under Plan I, the company would have 350,000 shares of stock outstanding. Under Plan II, there would be 225,000 shares of stock outstanding and $5 million in debt outstanding. The interest rate on the debt is 10 percent, and there are no taxes. a. If EBIT is $1,000,000, which plan will result in the higher EPS? b. If EBIT is $1,500,000, which plan will result in the higher EPS? c. What is the break-even EBIT?

Answers

Answer:

a. If EBIT is $1,000,000 Plan 1 will give higher EPS

b. If EBIT is $1,500,000 Plan 2 will give higher EPS

c. The break-even EBIT would be $ 1,400,000

Explanation:

a) In Plan 1

According to given data EBIT = $1,000,000

Since there is no debt, so there is no interest. Also there are no taxes

So , earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 1,000,000

shares of stock outstanding = 350,000

EPS = 1,000,000 / 350,000 = 2.857

Plan 2

EBIT = $1,000,000

Debt = 5000000

Interest = 10% * 5000000 = $ 500000

So , EBIT -interest = $ 500000

Earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 500000

 shares of stock outstanding = 225000

EPS = 500000/ 225000= 2.222

So Plan 1 will give higher EPS

b) Plan 1

EBIT = $1,500,000

Since there is no debt, so there is no interest. Also there are no taxes

So , earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 1,500,000

 shares of stock outstanding = 350,000

EPS = 1,500,000 / 350,000 = 4.286

Plan 2

EBIT = $1,500,000

Debt = 5000000

Interest = 10% * 5000000 = $ 500000

So , EBIT -interest = $ 1000000

Earnings avaliable to shareholders = $ 1000000

 shares of stock outstanding = 225000

EPS = 1000000/ 225000= 4.444

So Plan 2 will give higher EPS

c)

Let the breakeven EBIT be 'x'

So,

In breakeven EBIT both EPS for plan 1 and 2 will be same  

So,

x / 350000 = ( x - 500000) / 225000

Solving for x , x= 1400000

Breakeven EBIT = $ 1,400,000

Sunland Sports sells volleyball kits that it purchases from a sports equipment distributor. The following static budget based on sales of 1,940 kits was prepared for the year. Fixed operating expenses account for 78% of total operating expenses at this level of sales.
Sales $ 97,000
Cost of goods sold (all variable) 58,200
Gross margin 38,800
Operating expenses 33,950
Operating income $ 4,850
Assume that during the year Sunland Sports actually sold 2,037 volleyball kits during the year at a price of $47 per kit.
Required:
1. Calculate the sales price variance.

Answers

Answer:

$6,111  unfavorable variance

Explanation:

The budgeted sales price can be determined by dividing budgeted sales of $97,000 by the budgeted sales volume of 1,940 kits i.e $50  ($97,000/1940)

However,2037 volleyball kits were sold for $47 each instead of the planned $50 per kit.

sales price variance=(actual sales volume*actual sales price)*(budgeted sales price*actual sales volume)

actual sales volume is 2037

actual sales price is $47

budgeted sales price is $50

sales price variance=($47*2037)-($50*2037)=$-6111

Answers

Answer:

c. Common Stock $50,000 and Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par Value $20,000.

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Cash $70,000  (5,000 shares × $14)

     To Common stock $50,000  (5,000 shares × $10)

      To Additional Paid in capital in excess of par value - Common stock   $20,000  (5,000 shares × $4)

(Being the issuance of the common stock is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased assets and at the same time it also increased the overall stockholder equity so common stock and the additional paid in capital for common stock is credited

2. government-funded scholarships for college students

both demand side supply side 3. stimulus packages for firms that are "too big to fail"

4. increasing spending on "shovel-ready" projects

5. lowering income tax rates at all income levels

Answers

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

Supply Side Fiscal Policy focuses on how to improve the ability of companies to supply more goods to the economy. The aim being that as companies supply more, they grow more and employ more people.

Demand Side Fiscal Policy on the other hand focuses on how to give more power to the Demand side of the Economy. It holds that increasing demand leads to increased supply which is good for the economy.

Classifying the above,

1. research grants for a corporation developing new technologies. SUPPLY SIDE.

This is aimed at increasing supply by improving the ways a company is able to produce it's goods and services.

2. government-funded scholarships for college students. SUPPLY SIDE.

This is supply side because it leads to more Colleges offering placement to students.

3. stimulus packages for firms that are "too big to fail". DEMAND SIDE.

Companies considered Too big to fail usually hire a lot of people. Keeping them running leads to them being able to pay off their employees which increases the demand in the economy.

4. increasing spending on "shovel-ready" projects. DEMAND SIDE.

Shovel Ready projects are those that are ready to be initiated. By increasing spending on them, they hire people immediately and begin work which increases the income flowing to people in the economy which increases demand.

5. lowering income tax rates at all income levels. BOTH.

By lowering income tax levels people are both able to spend more which increases demand as well as able to Invest more in companies which will increases supply.

Use the following to answer question 80: Gross Corporation adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory valuation on December 31, 2011. Its inventory at that date was $440,000 and the relevant price index was 100. Information regarding inventory for subsequent years is as follows: Inventory at Current Current Prices Price Index December 31, 2012 $513,600 107 December 31, 2013 580,000 125 December 31, 2014 650,000 130 80. What is the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2013 under dollar value LIFO

Answers

Answer:

$465680

Explanation:

For calculating the ending inventory under the dollar value LIFO method we will follow the 2 steps given as under:

Step1:

Y = Current Price at year end /  Price Index at that time

Step2:

Ending Inventory = Opening Inventory value +  (Y - Opening Inventory Value) * Index Value

For the Year 2012

Step 1:

Y =  513,600 / 1.07 = $480,000

Step 2:

Ending Inventory  = $440,000 + ($480,000 - 440,000) * 1.07 = $482,800

Similarly for the year 2013

Step 1:

Y = 580000 / 1.25 = $464,000

Step 2:

Ending Inventory = $440,000 + ($464,000 - $440,000) * 1.07 = $465,680

The answer is $465680.

Answers

Answer:

A) credit to Retained Earnings for $4,780.

Explanation:

Temporary accounts (includes all revenues and expenses) must be closed against the income summary account. Then the income summary account is closed against retained earnings, and depending on whether the company made a profit or not, the retained earnings account will be debited or credited.

In this case, the net income after taxes is $4,780, so that means that retained earnings will increase (should be credited), so the closing journal entry should be:

Dr Income summary 4,780

b. credit to Nate, Capital for $57,000

Explanation:

Nate is investing in the business and All his investment will be recorded by the partners as follow

Dr. Receivable                                        $60,000

Dr. Cash                                                  $6,000

Cr. Nate Capital Account                       $57,000

Cr. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $9,000

All the receivables are become the receivables of the business.

Cash is also added to the business cash.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts are also recorded against the receivable added.

Net effect of all the above account will be recorded as Capital investment

Answer:

CREDIT to Nate capital for $57000 ( B )

Explanation:

NATE  contributions

accounts receivables = $60000

allowance for doubtful accounts = $9000 ( FOR DEBTORS )

cash = $6000

therefore the entry the partnership makes to record Nate's initial contribution includes = ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE + CASH - allowance for doubtful accounts

= 60000 + 6000 - 9000 = $57000

Top management of Drexel-Hall is considering closing Store 3. The three stores are close enough together that management estimates closing Store 3 would cause sales at Store 1 to increase by $60,000, and sales at Store 2 to increase by $120,000. Closing Store 3 is not expected to cause any change in common fixed costs. Compute the increase or decrease that closing Store 3 should cause in: a. Total monthly sales for Drexel-Hall stores. b. The monthly responsibility margin of Stores 1 and 2. c. The company’s monthly income from operations. Williams, Jan. Financial & Managerial Accounting (p. 980). McGraw-Hill Higher Education.

Kiano, a telecommunications equipment manufacturer, manufactures PDAs (P), wireless handsets (H), and blackberrys (B). They have a limited supply of common parts---ethernet card (450 in inventory), antenna (250 in inventory), chipset (800 in inventory), battery/power supply (450 in inventory), LCD screen (600 in inventory)---that these products use. A PDA requites an ethernet card, 2 chipsets, a power supply, and 2 LCD screens. A wireless handset requires an ethernet card, an antenna, 2 chipsets, a power supply, and a LCD screen. A blackberry requires a chipset and a LCD screen. The profit on PDAs is $80, the profit on wireless handsets is $60, and the profit on blackberrys is $35. The following is a linear programming formulation of the problem.
Let
P = Number of PDAs produced
H = Number of wireless handsets produced
B = Number of blackberrys produced
We may write model for this problem as follows.
Maximize 80P + 60H + 35B
subject to:
(ethernet card constraint) P + H ? 450
(antenna constraint constraint) H ? 250
(chipset constraint) 2P + 2H + B ? 800
(power supply constraint) P + H ? 450
(LCD screen constraint) 2P + H + B ? 600
(non-negativity) P, H, B ? 0.
Implement the above model in Solver and make sure to choose Simplex as the solving method and to choose the option "Make Unconstrained Variables non-negative"---do not explicitly put in the non-negativity constraints in the model and using the sensitivity report only
answer the questions below:
a. Does the solution change if only 425 ethernet cards are available?
b. Is it profitable to produce Blackberrys? If not, by how much should the profit margin on Blackberrys be increased to make it profitable to produce Blackberrys?
c. Because of a change in production technology the profit margin on handsets has increased to $70. Should the production plan of Kiano change? What is their new profit?
d. 50 chipsets were found to be defective, making the number of available chipsets 750. What will the profit be in this situation?
e. Another supplier is willing to sell LCD screens to Kiano. However their prices for a LCD screen are $20 higher than what Kiano pays it's regular supplier. Should Kiano go ahead and purchase these electronic units? If yes, at most how many units should they purchase.
f. Kiano is considering introducing a new product (called the Revolutionary Communicator) that combines the wireless handset and PDA. This product uses an ethernet card, an antenna, 2 chipsets, 1 power supply, and 2 LCD screens, and is expected to make a profit of $100. Should Kiano produce the Revolutionary Communicator? Why or Why not?

There are some government programs that pay farmers not to plant wheat on part of their land.
This would help farmers:

A) by increasing total revenue but it hurts consumers.
B) by increasing prices for wheat by increasing total revenue and it also helps consumers by lowering the price of wheat.
C) since the government payment will reduce the costs of production and increase the supply of wheat.
D) since the government payment will increase income to farmers and it helps consumers too by lowering the price of wheat.

Answers

Answer:

Option D                                

Explanation:

In simple words, the payment by government will work as a subsidy for the lost profits of the farmers and their income will be ineffective. Also, by not using that land the farmers can grow any other crop which can provide them higher income as compared to crops.

Such step will result in higher total revenue as wheat would not get wasted due to extra production, thus consumers will also not  get hurt.

Rauch Incorporated leases a piece of equipment to Donahue Corporation on January 1, 2020. The lease agreement called for annual rental payments of $4,892 at the beginning of each year of the 4-year lease. The equipment has an economic useful life of 6 years, a fair value of $25,000, a book value of $20,000, and both parties expect a residual value of $8,250 at the end of the lease term, though this amount is not guaranteed. Rauch set the lease payments with the intent of earning a 5% return, and Donahue is aware of this rate. There is no bargain purchase option, ownership of the lease does not transfer at the end of the lease term, and the asset is not of a specialized nature.Prepare the lease amortization schedule(s) for Donahue for all 4 years of the lease.

The Sanding Department of Quik Furniture Company has the following production and manufacturing cost data for March 2020, the first month of operation. Production: 6,240 units finished and transferred out; 3,000 units started that are 100% complete as to materials and 20% complete as to conversion costs. Manufacturing costs: Materials $36,960; labor $21,400; overhead $30,242. Prepare a production cost report. (Round unit costs to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.25 and other answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)

Answers

Answer:

Cost of goods transferred out  $71,061.012

Value of closing inventory = $17,540.98

Explanation:

Cost  per equivalent unit = Cost /total equivalent unit

Material

Equivalent unit = (100%×6,240) +( 100%× 3,000) = 9240

Cost per equivalent unit = $36,960/9,240 units= 4

Labour

Equivalent unit = (100%×6,240) + ( 25%× 3,000)= 6990  units

Cost per equivalent unit = ( 21,400 + 30,242)/6990  = 7.387982833

Cost of goods transferred out=  (6,240× 4) + (7.38×6,240)=71,061.012

Value of closing inventory = (3,000× 4) + (7.38× 25%*3000)= 17,540.98

Cost of goods transferred out  $71,061.012

Value of closing inventory = $17,540.98

​Colgate-Palmolive Company has just paid an annual dividend of $ 1.09. Analysts are predicting dividends to grow by $ 0.19 per year over the next five years. After​ then, Colgate's earnings are expected to grow 5.3 % per​ year, and its dividend payout rate will remain constant. If​ Colgate's equity cost of capital is 7.5 % per​ year, what price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Colgate stock should sell for​ today?

Answers

Answer:

$74.62

Explanation:

Div₀ = $1.09

expected growth $0.19 per year

Div₁ = $1.28

Div₂ = $1.47

Div₃ = $1.66

Div₄ = $1.85

Div₅ = $2.04

then constant growth rte of 5.3%

equity cost = 7.5%

first we need to determine the stock price in year 5 using the Gordon growth model:

stock price = [dividend x (1+g)] / (Re - g) = ($2.04 x 1.053) / (7.5% - 5.3%) = $97.64

now we can discount all the future cash flows:

stock price = $1.28/1.075 + $1.47/1.075² + $1.66/1.075³ + $1.85/1.075⁴ + $2.04/1.075⁵ + $97.64/1.075⁵ = $1.19 + $1.27 + $1.34 + $1.39 + $1.42 + $68.01 = $74.62

Trout farming is a perfectly competitive industry and all trout farms have the same cost curves.
When the market price is $25 a fish, farms maximize profit by producing 200 fish a week. At this output, average total cost is $20 a fish and average variable cost is $15 a fish. Minimum average variable cost is $12 a fish.
Required:
i) If the price falls to $20 a fish, will a trout farm produce 200 fish a week. Explain why or why not?
ii) If the price falls to $12 a fish, what will the trout farmer do?
iii) What are two points on a trout farm's supply curve?

Answers

Answer:

(i) The farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units

(ii)  The farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down

(iii)  The two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200)

Explanation:

(i)According to given data,  When output is 200 but price is $20, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm breaks even. But since this price is higher than AVC of $15, the farm can cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will continue producing 200 units.

(ii) When output is 200 but price is $12, this price is equal to ATC, so the farm makes economic loss. Also, this price is lower than AVC of $15, so the farm cannot cover its revenue using its total variable cost, therefore the farm will shut down.

(iii) The farm's supply curve is the portion of its Marginal cost (MC) curve above the minimum point of AVC. Since price equals MC, the two relevant points on supply curve will be: (Price = $12 & Quantity = 0) and (Price = $25 & Quantity = 200).

2. What is the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate? (Round answer to 0 decimal places)
3. What are the total cost and the unit cost of the completed job? (Round unit cost to 2 decimal places)
4. Prepare the entry to record the completion of the job.

Answers

Answer and  Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,  the calculation and journal entry is given below:

1)

Source documents for direct material is Material requisition slip, For direct labor is time tickets and for manufacturing overhead cost is predetermined overhead rate.

2)

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate = 500 ÷ 400

= 1.25

= 125%

Hence, Predetermined overhead rate is 125% of labor cost.

3)

Total cost :

Direct material $4875        ($800 + $900 + $1600 + $1575)

Direct labor $1,300 ($400 + $300 + $600)

Manufacturing overhead $1,625 ($500 + $375 + $750)

Total cost $7,800 ($4875 + $1300 + $1625)

Now

Unit cost = Total cost ÷ Quantity

=$7,800 ÷ 2,500

= $3.12

4)  The journal entry is

Finished goods inventory A/c Dr. $7,800

           To Work in process inventory Cr. $7,800

(Being the completion of the job is recorded)

1. The source documents for each of the following is as follows:

direct material: the material requisition slip.direct labor: time tickets.manufacturing overhead costs: the predetermined overhead rate.

2. The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate is 125% of the direct labor cost.

Computation:

[tex]\text{Predetermined Overhead rate}=\dfrac{\text{Manufacturing overhead cost}}{\text{Direct labor cost}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{\$500}{\$400}\times100\\\\=125\%\;\text{of direct labor cost}[/tex]

3. The total cost of the completed job is $7,800, while the unit cost is $3.12.

Computation:

The total cost of the completed job is shown in the image attached below.

The unit cost is computed as follows:

[tex]\text{Unit Cost}=\dfrac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Total Quantity}}\\\\=\dfrac{\$7,800}{2,500}\\\\=\$3.12[/tex]
