Juniper Design Ltd. of Manchester, England, is a company specializing in providing design services to residential developers. Last year the company had net operating income of $430,000 on sales of $1,300,000. The companyâs average operating assets for the year were $1,500,000 and its minimum required rate of return was 10%.
Required:Compute the companyâs residual income for the year.Average Operating Assets-Net Operating Income-Minimum required return-Residual income-
Answer: $280,000
Explanation:
Residual income can be calculated by the formula:
= Net operating income - (Average operating asset * Minimum required rate)
= 430,000 - (1,500,000 * 10%)
= 430,000 - 150,000
= $280,000

Refer to the information. If government desired to raise the equilibrium GDP to $650, it could:
Answer:
The correct option is c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
(Advanced analysis) Answer the question on the basis of the following information for a mixed open economy. The letters Y, Ca, Ig, Xn, G, and T stand for GDP, consumption, gross investment, net exports, government purchases, and net taxes respectively. Figures are in billions of dollars.
Ca = 25 + 0.75(Y - T)
Ig = Ig0 = 50
Xn = Xn0 = 10
G = G0 = 70
T = T0 = 30
Refer to the information. If government desired to raise the equilibrium GDP to $650, it could:
a. raise G by $45 or reduce T by $10.
b. raise G by $40 and reduce T by $30.
c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.
d. raise both and T by $40.
e. reduce G by $30 and increase T by $40.
The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
Equilibrium GDP (Y) can be obtained as follows:
Y = C + G + I + Xn …………………….. (1)
Substituting all the values in the question into equation (1) and solve for Y, we have:
Y = 25 + 0.75(Y - 30) + 70 + 50 + 10
Y = 0.75Y - 22.50 + 155
Y – 0.75Y = 132.50
0.25Y = 132.50
Y = 132.50 / 0.25
Y = 530
Therefore, we have:
Y = Current equilibrium GDP = $530
Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required = Desired equilibrium GDP – Current equilibrium GDP = 650 - 530 = 120
From the question, we have:
Ca = 25 + 0.75(Y - T) ………………. (2)
The 0.75 in equation (2) is the marginal propensity to consume (MPC). Therefore, we have:
MPC = 0.75
Expenditure multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.75) = 4
Tax multiplier = - MPC / (1 – MPC) = -0.75 / (1 – 0.75) = -3
Amount of increase in G or government expenditure required = Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required / Expenditure multiplier = 120 / 4 = $30
Amount of tax cut or decrease in T required = Amount of increase in equilibrium GDP required / Tax multiplier = 120 / (-3) = -$40
Therefore, correct option is c. raise G by $30 or reduce T by $40.
Rudy's and Blackstone are all-equity firms. Rudy's has 1,200 shares outstanding at a market price of $36 a share. Blackstone has 2,500 shares outstanding at a price of $38 a share. Blackstone is acquiring Rudy's for $48,000 in cash. What is the merger premium per share
Answer:
$4
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the merger premium per share
Using this formula
Merger premium per share=(Cash/Shares outstanding)-Market price
Let plug in the formula
Merger premium per share = ($48,000 / 1,200) - $36
Merger premium per share=$40-$36
Merger premium per share=$4
Therefore the merger premium per share is $4

John believes his sales team's performance is due to outside forces, like economic and market factors. Which of the following best describes is John's locus of control?
a. External
b. Market driven
c. Internal
d. Based on labor trends.
Answer:
a. External
Explanation:
There are only two types of locus of control and these are internal and external. In this scenario, John's locus of control would be external. This is because John is connecting various external forces that he cannot control, to the performance of the sales team. This indicates an external locus of control. If John where to instead attribute something such as hard work and training to his sales team's perfomance, then that would be considered an internal locus of control.

Competitive Analysis
This is commonly refered to as a form of research review and final evaluation of one's competitors. It is beneficial due to the fact that the information you obtained/known can help you to be based on your competitor weaknesses
When starting this analysis, always you set up expectations that can be achieved so that one's team has enough time to fully research, analyze, and share their findings.
Competitive analysis, as a part of your business planning, is a means by which an individual believes that their business will survive and thrive competitively in the market because the individual has full attachment to current competitors and one's potential competition too. Putting the robot through a drop test is not correct as it may destroy it.
All of the following questions are open-ended problems. You must compute an answer for every problem. For percentage answers, calculate your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. For example, you would record ROA = .1263974 as 12.64% (note that on D2L you will enter 12.64 without the percent sign). For dollar answers, round to the nearest dollar. For example, you would record $12,345.83943 as $12,346 (note that on D2L you will enter 12346 without a comma and without the dollar sign).13. Felton Farm Supplies, Inc. has an ROA (return on assets) of 12 percent, total assets of $1,000,000 and a net profit margin of 4.25 percent. What are Felton Farm Supplies annual sales?14. Krisle and Kringle's debt ratio = 72.0%. What is the company’s debt-to-equity ratio? (Enter answer as a ratio rounded to 2 decimal places – that is, do not convert to a percent; for example, enter 80/35 = 2.2857 as 2.29).15. Philips, Inc has a debt ratio of 42.5% and ROE = 15%. What is Phillips’ ROA? (Enter answer as a percent).16. A firm has an ROA of 16% and a debt/equity ratio of 1.45. The firm's ROE is _________. (Enter answer as a percent).17. Assume that XYZ, Inc. has:Debt ratio = 70% Net profit margin = 15% Return on assets (ROA) = 7.5% Find XYZ’s Total Asset Turnover ratio. (Enter answer as a ratio – that is, do not convert to a percent).
Solution :
13. Net income = total assets x ROA
= $ 1,000,000 x 12%
= $ 120,000
Net Income for company is $120,000.
Net Profit margin = 4.25%
Total sales = net income / net profit margin
= $ 120,000 / 4.25%
= $ 2,823,529
Total sales for company is $ 2,823,529
14. Debt ratio = 72%
So weight of debt = 72%
Weight of equity = 1 - 72%
= 28%
Debt equity ratio [tex]$=\frac{72 \%}{28 \%}$[/tex]
= 2.57
Debt equity ratio is 2.57
15. Debt ratio = 42.50%
So, weight of debt = 42.50%
Weight of equity = 1 - 42.50%
= 57.50%
Weight of equity is 57.50%.
Return on equity = 15%.
Return on assets = 57.50% × 15%
= 8.625%
Return on assets is 8.625%.
16.
Debt Equity ratio = 1.45
Weight of debt = 59.18%
Weight of equity = 40.82%
Return on assets = 16%
Return on equity = 16% / 40.82%
= 39.20%
Return on equity is 39.20%.
17.
Total Assets turnover = Sales / Total Assets
= (Net Income / Total Assets) / (Net Income / Sales)
= ROA / Net Profit margin
= 7.50% / 15%
= 0.50
Total Assets turnover is 0.50.
Ormand Organic Grocery has invested in a yogurt stand for its store. The investment cost the company $100,000. Variable materials, preparation, and marketing costs are expected to be $1.30 per unit and fixed costs are estimated at $7,400 a year. If actual sales were 21,400 servings, what would the ROI be using the sales price of $2.40
Answer:
15.4%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what would the ROI be
ROI=[ ( $2.40 - $1.30) * 21,400 - $7,400]/100,000
ROI=($1.1 * 14,000)/100,000
ROI=$15,400/100,000
ROI=0.154*100
ROI=15.4%
Therefore the ROI would be 15.4%

A company has a factory that is designed so that it is most efficient (average unit cost is minimized) when producing 27,100 units of output each month. However, it has an absolute maximum output capability of 33,000 units per month, and can produce as little as 7,000 units per month without corporate headquarters shifting production to another plant. If the factory produces 17,470 units in October, what is the capacity utilization rate in October for this factory
Answer: 64.47%
Explanation:
Units produced in October = 17470
Units production in the most efficient way = 27,100
Therefore, the capacity utilization rate in October for the factory will be:
= Units produced in October / Units production in the most efficient way
= 17470 / 27100
= 0.6447
= 64.47%
The capacity utilization rate in October for this factory is 64.47%.

A firm just paid its annual dividend of $1.80 and expects to increase that dividend each year. The discount rate is 11 percent. Which one of these correctly identifies an error when computing the current value of this firm's stock?
a. Po = $1.80/(0.11 -0.03): The growth rate exceeds its limitation.
b. Po = ($1.80 x 1.12(0.11 -0.03); The growth rate in the denominator should be 12 percent to match the growth rate in the numerator.
c. Po = ($1.80 x (1 +.09)[0.11 -.09); The growth rate exceeds it limitation for using this formula
d. Po = $1.80/(0.11 -0.025); The value of Dt, is incorrect as $1.80 equals Do.
Answer:
d. Po = $1.80/(0.11 -0.025); The value of D1, is incorrect as $1.80 equals Do.
Explanation:
Calculation to correctly identifies which one of these is an error when computing the current value of this firm's stock
P0 = $1.80/(0.11 - 0.025)
P0 = $1.80/0.085

Sheffield Corp. has a materials price standard of $2.00 per pound. 4900 pounds of materials were purchased at $2.20 a pound. The actual quantity of materials used was 4900 pounds, although the standard quantity allowed for the output was 4000 pounds. Sheffield Corp.'s materials quantity variance is:_____.
a. $1980 U.
b. $1800 F.
c. $1800 U.
d. $1980 F.
Answer:
a. $1,980 U
Explanation:
We will compute the direct materials quantity variance using the formula below.
Direct materials quantity variance =
(Standard quantity allowed - Actual quantity of materials) × Materials price standard
Fixing in the values, we'll have;
Direct materials quantity variance
= (4,000 pounds - 4,900 pounds) × $2.20 per pound
= -900 pounds × $2.20 per pound
= -$1,980
= $1,980 U
The quantity demanded x for a product is inversely proportional to the cube of the price p for p > 1. When the price is $10 per unit, the quantity demanded is 64 units. The initial cost is $140 and the cost per unit is $4. What price will yield a maximum profit? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
$______
Answer:
$6.00
Explanation:
Given data
quantity demanded ( x ) ∝ 1 / p^3 for p > 1
when p = $10/unit , x = 64
initial cost = $140, cost per unit = $4
Determine the price that will yield a maximum profit
x = k/p^3 ----- ( 1 ). when x = 64 , p = $10 , k = constant
64 = k/10^3
k = 64 * ( 10^3 )
= 64000
back to equation 1
x = 64000 / p^3
∴ p = 40 / ∛x
next calculate the value of revenue generated
Revenue(Rx) = P(price ) * x ( quantity )
= 40 / ∛x * x = 40 x^2/3
next calculate Total cost of product
C(x) = 140 + 4x
Maximum Profit generated = R(x) - C(x) = 0
= 40x^2/3 - 140 + 4x = 0
= 40(2/3) x^(2/3 -1) - 0 - 4 = 0
∴ ∛x = 20/3 ∴ x = (20/3 ) ^3 = 296
profit is maximum at x(quantity demanded ) = 296 units
hence the price that will yield a maximum profit
P = 40 / ∛x
= ( 40 / (20/3) ) = $6
Westside Plumbing and Heating Company is offered a contract for$100,000 to provide plumbing for a new building. The labor and equip-ment costs are calculated to be $60,000 for fulfilling the contract. West-side has materials in its inventory to complete the job. The raw ma-terials initially cost the firm $50,000; however the material prices havedeclined in the interim and now cost only $37,500. Thus if thefirmchose not to accept the contract and sells the materials, they wouldincur a loss of $12,500. Material prices are not expected to go up inthe future. Should Westside accept the contract. Explain your answer.
Answer:
Westside Plumbing and Heating Company
Westside should accept the contract.
By accepting the contract at the price of $100,000, Westside incurs a total cost of $97,500 and makes a little profit of $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500). The contract enables Westside to utilize the materials that it has in inventory instead of allowing it to deteriorate further in value.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Contract price = $100,000
Labor and equipment costs = $60,000
Original cost of materials = $50,000
Materials market price = $37,500
Total costs to be incurred = $97,500 ($60,000 + $37,500)
Profit to be earned = $2,500 ($100,000 - $97,500)

Total Company North South
Sales $800,000 $600,000 $200,000
Variable expenses 560,000 480,000 80,000
Contribution margin 240,000 120,000 120,000
Traceable fixed expenses 122,000 61,000 61,000
Segment margin $118,000 $59,000 $59,000
Common fixed expenses 52,000
Net operating income $66,000
Required:
1. Compute the company-wide break-even point in dollar sales.
2. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region.
3. Compute the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.
Answer:
1. Company-wide break-even point in dollar sales:
Break even point in dollar sales = (Traceable fixed expenses + Common fixed expenses) / Contribution margin %
Contribution margin % = Contribution margin / Sales revenue * 100%
= 240,000 / 800,000 * 100%
= 30%
Break even point in dollar sales :
= (122,000 + 52,000) / 30%
= $580,000
2. Break-even point in dollar sales for the North region.
Break even point in dollar sales = Traceable fixed costs / Contribution margin %
Contribution margin % = Contribution margin / Sales revenue * 100%
= 120,000 / 600,000 * 100%
= 20%
Break even point in dollar sales :
= 61,000 / 20%
= $305,000
3. Break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.
Break even point in dollar sales = Traceable fixed costs / Contribution margin %
Contribution margin % = Contribution margin / Sales revenue * 100%
= 120,000 / 200,000 * 100%
= 60%
Break even point in dollar sales :
= 61,000 / 60%
= $101,666.67

Explain the term "marginal rate of technical substitution." (Assume a two-input production function.)
Answer:
La relación marginal técnica de sustitución (RMTS) expresa la proporción en que un factor productivo se puede sustituir por otro, manteniendo constante la producción total.
Esta relación técnica busca sistemáticamente obtener la cantidad de un factor de producción que hay que disminuir con el objetivo de aumentar en cierto nivel, otro factor productivo. En tal caso la curva de la producción se mantiene en la misma isocuanta de tal forma que tenemos: RMTS= Δ K / Δ L.
