The Osgood county refuse department runs two recycling centers. Center 1 costs $40 to run for an eight hour day. In a typical day, 140 pounds of glass and 60 pounds of aluminum are deposited at Center 1. Center 2 costs $50 for an eight hour day, with 100lbs of glass and 180lbs of aluminum deposited per day. The county has a commitment to deliver at least 1540lbs of glass and 1440lbs of aluminum per week. How many days per week should the county open each center to minimize its cost and still meet the requirements?
Answer:
Center 1 should be open 7 days a week, and center 2 should be open 6 days a week. Total cost = $580
Explanation:

where:
A = center 1
B = center 2
constraints:
140A + 100B ≥ 1540
60A + 180B ≥ 1440
A ≤ 7
B ≤ 7
A, B ≥ 0
using Solver, the optimal solution is 7A + 6B = 580

Metallica Bearings, Inc., is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 11 years because the firm needs to plow back its earnings to fuel growth. The company will then pay a dividend of $16.25 per share 12 years from today and will increase the dividend by 5.5 percent per year thereafter. The required return on the stock is 13.5 percent. What is the price of the stock 11 years from today?
Answer:
P11 = $203.125
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock in year 11. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
D1 is dividend expected for the next period /year
g is the growth rate
r is the required rate of return or cost of equity
P11 = 16.25 / (0.135 - 0.055)
P11 = $203.125

2015 2016 2017
Costs to date $1,325,000 $3,780,000 $5,430,000
Estimated costs to complete 3,975,0001, 620,000 —
Progress billings during the year 1,200,000 3,200,000 1,600,000
Cash collected during the year 1,000,000 2,340,000 2,660,000
What amount of gross profit should Black Bear recognize in 2017 using the percentage-of-completion method?
a. $150,000
b. $169,000
c. $210,000
d. $530,000
Answer:
a. $150,000
Explanation:
Calculation for What amount of gross profit should Black Bear recognize in 2017 using the percentage-of-completion method
First step is to calculate the Total estimated contract costs at 2016
Total estimated contract costs at 2016=$3,780,000+$1,620,000
Total estimated contract costs at 2016=$5,400,000
Second step is to calculate the Percentage of completion
Percentage of completion = $3,780,000 / ($3,780,000+$1,620,000)
Percentage of completion =$3,780,000 / $5,400,000
Percentage of completion =0.7*100
Percentage of completion =70%
Now let calculate the gross profit
Using this formula
Gross profit=Percentage of completion *(Contract Price-Total estimated contract costs at 2016)
Let plug in the formula
Gross profit=70%*($6,000,000-$5,400,000)
Gross profit=70%*$600,000
Gross profit=$150,000
Therefore amount of gross profit should Black Bear recognize in 2017 using the percentage-of-completion method will be $150,000
MacGuffins have a demand function of QD = 70 – P and a supply function of QS = 2P + 10. Determine the price at equilibrium
Answer: 20
Explanation:
For us to calculate the equilibrium price, we must equate the quantity demanded with the quantity supplied. In this case, Qd = Qs where,
QD = 70 – P
QS = 2P + 10.
QD = QS
70 - P = 2P + 10
70 - 10 = 2P + P
60 = 3P
P = 60/3
P = 20
The equilibrium price is 20
Markel entered into a contract with Jaylin to paint a portrait for her in consideration of $600. This contract was freely negotiated. There was nothing in the terms of the agreement about when Markel had to start on the portrait or how long it should take him to finish. It took Markel a long time to complete the portrait, almost 18 months. Which of the following is true of this contract?
a. It must be in writing because it took longer than one year to complete.
b. It must be in writing because it was for more than $500.
c. It is a unilateral contract.
d. The contract need not be in writing.
Answer:
It is a unilateral contract.
Explanation:
A unilateral contract is a type of contract where only one party of the persons involved in the contract agrees to offer something.
In this case, Markel is offering to give Jaylin $600 for her portrait and Jaylin is not giving any specified time of delivery.
The contract is termed as the legal agreement between two-person that defines the rights and duties between the individuals or among the parties.
It is a legally enforceable obligation or the boundation between the person that accepts at their own wish for the exchange of the goods and services.
The correct option is c. It is a unilateral contract.
A unilateral contract is a type of contract where only one party of the persons involved in the contract agrees to offer something.
In this case, Markel is offering to give Jaylin $600 for her portrait and Jaylin is not giving any specified time of delivery. This is the correct option because it has been specified in the context itself about the one side contract by Markel.

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost. Last year, the company sold 60,000 of these balls, with the following results:
Sales (60,000 balls) $1,500,000
Variable expenses 900,000
Contribution margin 600,000
Fixed expenses 375,000
Net operating income $225,000
Required:
a. Compute the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls.
b. Compute the the degree of operating leverage at last year
Answer:
A. 37,500 balls
B.2.67
Explanation:
A. Compution for the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls.
First step is to calculate the Contribution margin
Selling price $25 100%
Variable expenses $15 60%
Contribution margin $10 40%
($25-$15)
Now let calculate the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls using this formula
Unit sales to break even=Fixed expenses/Unit contribution margin
Let plug in the formula
Unit sales to break even=$375,000/$10
Unit sales to break even= 37,500 balls
Therefore the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls will be 37,500 balls
b. Computation for the degree of operating leverage at last year
Using this formula
Degree of operating leverage =Contribution margin/Net operating income
Let plug in the formula
Degree of operating leverage=$600,000/$225,000=
Degree of operating leverage = 2.67 (rounded)
Therefore the degree of operating leverage at last year will be 2.67

Now imagine that Tiger Pros is 60% financed with equity and 40% financed with debt. Cost of equity is 16.5% and after-tax cost of debt is 11%. It has the same perpetual EBIT of $500 a year but has a $120 perpetual interest expense. The firm is subject to a 21% tax rate. What is the market value of Tiger Pros
Answer:
$2,762.24
Explanation:
The computation of the market value as follows:
But before that WACC is
WACC is
= Weight of Equity × Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt × Cost of Debt × (1 -Tax Rate)
= 60% × 16.5% + 40% × 11%
= 14.30%
Now the Market Value is
= (EBIT) × (1 - Tax rate) ÷ WACC
= $500 × (1 - 21%) ÷ 14.30%
= $2,762.24

Explanation:
End of period adjustments are made to accounts in order to bring them in line with the accrual concept and matching principle of accounting. These principles require that expenses and revenues for the period are matched in order to determine the appropriate profit generated for the period. The implication is that transactions are recorded when they are incurred and not when cash is exchanged. For example, if rent expense is incurred for the year and payment is made in the following year, the expense must be recognized in the current year. The same applies to revenue.

Using least-squares regression, estimate the variable cost per rental return and the monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars. (Round Fixed cost to the nearest whole dollar amount and the Varlable cost per unit to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. The variable cost per rental return is $4.04.
b. The monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars is $1,376.
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of Rental Returns (x), Car Wash Costs (y), xy, and x^2.
Since Σ = Total of or summation of, we can therefore obtain the following from the attached excel file:
Σx = 34,854
Σy = 157,317
Σxy = 462,541,971
Σx^2 = 102,623,516
N = Number of months = 12
a. calculation of variable cost per rental return
To calculate the variable cost per rental return, the following formula is used:
Variable cost per rental return = (NΣxy − ΣxΣy) /((NΣx²) − (Σx)²) ……………… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Variable cost per rental return = ((12 * 462,541,971) - (34,854 * 157,317)) / (((12 * 102,623,516) - 34,854^2)
Variable cost per rental return = 4.03917240317595
Rounding to 2 decimal places as required, we have:
Variable cost per rental return = $4.04
Therefore, the variable cost per rental return is $4.04.
b. Calculation of monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars
To calculate the monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars, the following formula is used:
Fixed Cost per month = {Σy - (Variable cost per rental return * Σx) / N ....... (2)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (2), we have:
Fixed Cost per month = (157,317 - (4.04 * 34,854)) / 12
Fixed Cost per month = $1,375.57
Rounding to the nearest whole dollar amount as required, we have:
Fixed Cost per month = $1,376
Therefore, the monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars is $1,376.
The variable cost per rental return is $4.04 and the fixed cost per month is $1378.
The following can be depicted from the question
Σx = 34,854
Σy = 157,317
Σxy = 462,541,971
Σx² = 102,623,516
N = number of months = 12
Variable cost per rental return will be:
= ( N Σxy − Σx Σy)/{(N Σx²) − (Σx)²}
= {( 12 × 462,541,971) - (34,854 × 157,317) } / {(12 ×102,623,516) - (34,854)²}
= (5,550,503,652 - 5,483,126,718) / (1231482192 - 1214801316)
= 67,376,934 / 16680876
= $4.04
Fixed Cost per month will be:
= {Σy - ( Variable cost per rental return × Σx )/N
= {157,317 - (4.04 × 34,854)} /12
= ( 157,317 - 140,810.16) /12
= $1378

Adams Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 2,300 units and of Product B is 1,700 units. The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products. Product A requires 0.3 direct labor-hours per unit and Product B requires 0.6 direct labor-hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for next period is $105,475.
The company is considering switching to an activity-based costing system for the purpose of computing unit product costs for external reports. The new activity-based costing system would have three overhead activity cost pools--Activity 1, Activity 2, and General Factory--with estimated overhead costs and expected activity as follows:
Total Estimated
Overhead
Costs Expected Activity
Product A Product B Total
Activity 1 $32,592 1,600 1,200 2,800
Activity 2 18,564 2,300 800 3,100
General Factory54,319 690 1,020 1,710
Total $105,475
(Note: The General Factory activity cost pool's costs are allocated on the basis of direct labor-hours.)
The overhead cost per unit of Product B under the traditional costing system is closest to:________.
a. $20.30
b. $14.62
c. $16.71
d. $37.01
Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Total estimated overhead= $105,475
Total direct labor hours= (2,300*0-3) + (1,700*0.6)
Total direct labor hours= 1,710
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 105,475 / 1,710
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $61.68 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to Product B:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 61.68*(0.6*1,700)
Allocated MOH= $62,913.6
Finally, the cost per unit:
Cost per unit= 62,913.6/1,700
Cost per unit= $37
On July 1, 2013, a Japanese company enters into a forward contract to buy $1 million with yen on January 1, 2014. On September 1, 2013, it enters into a forward contract to sell $1 million on January 1, 2014. Describe the profit or loss the company will make in dollars as a function of the forward exchange rates on July 1, 2013 and September 1, 2013.
Answer:
Profit (loss) from the contract = (FER2 - FER1) million yen
Explanation:
Let FER1 represents the forward exchange rates for the contracts entered into by the company on July 1, 2013, and let FER2 represents the forward exchange rates for the contracts entered into by the company on September 1, 2013.
Also, let SPOT represents the spot rate on January 1, 2014.
Since all exchange rates are measured as yen per dollar, we therefore have:
First contract profit = (SPOT - FER1) million yen
Second contract profit = (FER2 - SPOT) million yen
Profit (loss) from the contract = First contract profit + Second contract profit
Removing the million yen first and later add to the final answer, we have:
Profit (loss) from the contract = (SPOT - FER1) + (FER2 - SPOT)
Profit (loss) from the contract = SPOT - FER1 + FER2 - SPOT
Profit (loss) from the contract = (FER2 - FER1) million yen
Therefore, the profit or loss the company will make in dollars as a function of the forward exchange rates on July 1, 2013 and September 1, 2013 is Profit (loss) from the contract = (FER2 - FER1) million yen.

Some firms pool overhead into a single plantwide overhead pool, while others accumulate overhead costs into manufacturing departments, each of which has an overhead cost pool and overhead cost application rate. Which approach is likely to provide more accurate cost numbers for cost estimating, pricing, and performance evaluation?
Answer:
departmental rate
Explanation:
From the question we are informed about Some firms which pool overhead into a single plantwide overhead pool, while others accumulate overhead costs into manufacturing departments, each of which has an overhead cost pool and overhead cost application rate. In this case, the approach likely to provide more accurate cost numbers for cost estimating, pricing, and performance evaluation is departmental overhead rate.
The departmental overhead rate can be regarded as expense rate that is been calculated in production process of a factory for each of the departments. It varies at stages of the production process
You are asked to study the causal effect of hours spent on employee training (measured in hours per worker per week) in a manufacturing plant on the productivity of its workers (output per worker per hour). Describe EITHER ONE a-an ideal randomized controlled experiment to measure this causal effect.
Answer and Explanation:
An ideal randomized controlled experiment to measure the productivity of the factory would be established in the following way: owners of all sectors of the factory would be selected. This selection would be done completely randomly so that it was possible to select individuals different from each other. These employees would be divided into two groups. The first group would receive training, the second group would not receive training.
In this case, the productivity of one group would be compared to the productivity of the other, after both groups were submitted to a period of work, after the first group received training.
A company currently using an inspection process in its material receiving department is trying to install an overall cost reduction program. One possible reduction is the elimination of one inspection position. This position test material has a defective content on the average of 0.04. By inspecting all items, the inspector is able to remove all defects. The inspector can inspect 50 units per hour. The hourly rate including fringe benefits for this position is $9. If the inspection position is eliminated, defects will go into product assembly and will have to be replaced later at a cost of $10 each when they are detected in final product testing.
Required:
a. If the inspector position is eliminated, what will the hourly cost of defects be?
b. Should this inspection position be eliminated?
c. What is the cost to inspect each unit?
d. Is there benefit (or loss) from the current inspection process? How much?
Answer:
defects per hour = 0.04
units inspected per hour = 50
inspector's salary per hour = $9
cost per undetected defects = $10
a. If the inspector position is eliminated, what will the hourly cost of defects be?
number of defects per hour = 0.04 x 50 = 2
cost of defects = 2 x $10 = $20
b. Should this inspection position be eliminated?
no, because the cost of eliminating the position is higher than the cost of hiring the inspector
c. What is the cost to inspect each unit?
cost to inspect each unit = $9 / 50 = $0.18 per unit
d. Is there benefit (or loss) from the current inspection process? How much?
the benefit of the inspection process = $20 - $9 = $11 per hour, or $11 / 50 = $0.22 per unit
