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?

Suppose Cook Plus manufactures cast iron skillets. One model is a 10-inch skillet that sells for $ 22. Cook Plus projects sales of 650 10-inch skillets per month. The production costs are $ 11 per skillet for direct materials, $ 4 per skillet for direct labor, and $ 6 per skillet for manufacturing overhead. Cook Plus has 75 10-inch skillets in inventory at the beginning of July but wants to have an ending inventory equal to 40% of the next month's sales. Selling and administrative expenses for this product line are $ 1,200 per month. Cook Plus has budgeted cost of goods sold of $ 13,650 for July.
Required:
1. How many 10-inch skillets should Chef Plus produce in July?
Answers
Answer:
Production budget = 835
Explanation:
The production budgeted for a particular period is the expected units to be produced after adjusting the sales budget figures for opening and closing inventories.
Production = Sales budget + closing inventory - opening inventory
Inventory at the end of July = 40%×650= 260
Opening inventory = 75
Sales budget = 650
Production budget = 650+ 260 - 75= 835
Production budget = 835
Lazar Corporation is evaluating a proposal to invest in a machine costing $89,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of ten years, and an estimated salvage value of $14,000. The machine will increase the company's net income by approximately $9,600 per year. All revenue and expenses other than depreciation will be received and paid in cash.
Required:
1. The expected rate of return on average investment of the machine is ____________.
a. 10.0%
b. 48.0%
c. 17.0%
d. 18.6%
Answers
Answer:
Option D is correct
Expected rate of return = 18.6%
Explanation:
The expected rate of return is the proportion of average investment that is earned as income . It is calculated as follows:
Rate of return on investment = average return / Average investment
Average investment = (Initial cost + salvage value)/ 2
Average investment = 89,000 +14,000/ 2= 51500
Net income = $9,600
Expected rate of return = 9,600/51,500× 100
= 18.6%

None of the employees have reached the Social Security wage base for the year. What is the gross-up amount for each of the following employees?
a) The tax rate on bonuses is 28%.
b) The Social Security (6.2%) and Medicare taxes (1.45%) must be added to this rate.
c) Yves St. John, regular gross pay per period $1425 Kim Johnson, regular gross pay per period $2,400
d) Michael Hale, regular gross pay per period $2,240
Answers
Answer:
Yves St Jones would be payed $2,214.45
Kim Johnson would be payed $3,729.60
Michael Hale would be payed $3,480.96
Explanation:
Tax rate = Bonus + Social Security + Medicare Tax
= 28.00% + 6.20% + 1.45%
Total Tax rate = 35.65%
Net pay ratio = 100% - Tax rate
= 100% - (28 + 6.2 + 1.45)% = 64.35%
Gross pay = Net pay ÷ Net pay ratio
Employee Regular pay per period Net Pay ratio Gross pay

Desired ROI per unit = $ 1.125= $ 1.13
The investor will receive a benefit of $ 1.13 per unit .
Property Rights and Corruption When looking at a country as a market or investment, the international business must consider the country's legal system. In that assessment, the firm needs to understand the differences between private actions, which refer to theft, piracy, blackmail, and the like from individuals or groups, and public actions, which are those actions taken by politicians and government bureaucrats. Either kind of action would pose a serious threat to the firm's investment or operations. Before the firm can seek legal remedies, it must clearly understand the options open to it.
In a legal sense, property refers to a resource over which an individual or a business holds a legal title. It is a resource that it owns. Countries differ in the extent to which their legal systems define and protect property rights, even those countries that are still nominally communist states. Property rights can be violated, sometimes by governments and sometimes by individuals or groups.

Explanation:
Eclectic Paradigm is a three-tiered evaluation process which a company that plans to go international must follow in determining whether it would profit the company better limiting its operations to the domestic market or extending its operations to the international market.
The eclectic paradigm is called the OLI model or framework. It examines the Ownership Rights, Locational Advantages, and Internalization Factors. This helps the company to make decisions that are beneficial to it.
Property rights and corruption are aspects of the Ownership Rights that must be considered. Failure to put these factors into consideration may expose the company to risks and uncertainties and greatly reduce the ability of the company to increase economic benefits arising from transactions.
Mixed Costs and Cost Formula Callie's Gym is a complete fitness center. Owner Callie Ducain employs various fitness trainers who are expected to staff the front desk and to teach fitness classes. While on the front desk, trainers answer the phone, handle walk-ins and show them around the gym, answer member questions about the weight machines, and do light cleaning (wiping down the equipment, vacuuming the floor). The trainers also teach fitness classes (e.g., pilates, spinning, body pump) according to their own interest and training level. The cost of the fitness trainers is $600 per month and $20 per class taught. Last month, 100 classes were taught. Required: 1. Develop a cost equation for total cost of labor. Total labor cost = $ + $ per class taught 2. What was total variable labor cost last month? $ 3. What was total labor cost last month? $ 4. What was the unit cost of labor (per class) for last month? $ per class 5. What if Callie increased the number of classes offered by 50 percent? a. What would be the total labor cost? $ b. The unit labor cost? $ c. Explain why the unit labor cost d
Answers
Answer:
1 = $600 + $20 × X
2. = $2000
3 = $2,600
4 = $26 per class
5 = a = $3,600
b = $24
c = the cost per unit has reduced from $26 to $24.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We assume no. of units = X
1.Total Labor Cost =Total Fixed Cost + (Variable Cost Per Unit × No. of Units)
= $600 + $20 × X
2. Last month 100 classes were taught.
Total Variable Cost = No. of Classes Taught × Variable Cost Per Class
= 100 × $20 = $2000
3. When 100 classes were taught, total labor cost is-
Total Labor Cost = Total Fixed Cost + (No. of Units × Variable Cost Per Units)
= $600 + 100 × $20
= $600 + $2,000
= $2,600
4. Per Classes Unit Cost of Labor =Total Labor Cost ÷ No. of Classes Taught
= $2,600 ÷ 100
= $26 per class
5. If the No. of taught classes increase by 50% then the no. of classes is offered = 100 + (100 × 50 ÷ 100) = 150
a). Total Labor Cost if the no. of classes taught are 150
Total Labor Cost = Total Fixed Cost + (No. of Units × Variable Cost Per Units)
= $600 + 150 × $20
= $600 + $3,000
= $3,600
b). Per Classes Unit Cost of Labor = Total Labor Cost ÷ No. of Classes Taught
= $3,600 ÷ 150
= $24
c). After the change in the level of the activity variable cost per unit and fixed cost per unit remain same. So if there is an increase in the taught classes then the cost per unit has reduced from $26 to $24.
What would happen to the price of a certain commodity if the demand was always greater than the supply? There would be surplus of supply at any given price. Consumers would be willing to pay more for an abundant commodity and sellers would charge more, resulting in an upward spiral of the prices for the commodity. There would be a surplus of supply until the supply equals the demand. Consumers would be willing to pay more for a scarce commodity and sellers would charge more, resulting in an upward spiral of the prices for the commodity. There would be a shortage of supply until the supply equals the demand. Consumers would be willing to pay more for a scarce commodity and sellers would charge more, resulting in an upward spiral of the prices for the commodity. There would be a shortage of supply at any given price. Consumers would be willing to pay
Answers
Answer:
Consumers would be willing to pay more for a scarce commodity and sellers would charge more, resulting in an upward spiral of the prices for the commodity.
Explanation:
When demand exceeds supply, there's a scarcity. As a result of the scarcity, consumers would be willing to pay more for the good or service and suppliers would increase the price of the commodity. As a result price would rise.

Quad Enterprises is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2.31 million. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $1,785,000 in annual sales, with costs of $695,000. The tax rate is 25 percent and the required return on the project is 12 percent. What is the project’s NPV? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 1,234,567.89.)
Answers
Answer:
$115,849.581
Explanation:
For computing the net present value first we have to do following calculations
Annual depreciation expense is
= (Cost - Salvage value) ÷ Useful life
= ($2.31 million ÷ 3)
= $770,000
Now
Annual Operating cash flow = (Sales - Costs) × (1 - tax rate) + Tax savings on Annual depreciation
= ($1,785,000 - $695,000) × (1 - 0.25) + (0.25 × $770,000)
= $817,500 + $192,500
= $1,010,000
Now Present value of annuity is
= Annuity × [1 - (1 + interest rate)^ -time period] ÷ rate
= $1,010,000 × {1 - (1.12)^-3] ÷ 0.12
= $1,010,000 × 2.401831268
= $2,425,849.581
So, Net present value is
= Present value of inflows - Present value of outflows
= $2,425,849.581 - $2,310,000
= $115,849.581

There are 250 working days per year and the lead-time is 3 days. The cost of placing an order is $30, while the holding cost is $15 per box per year. If he orders in batches of 500 boxes at a time, what is his annual holding cost
Answers
Answer:
$3,750
Explanation:
The computation of the annual holding cost is shown below:
= Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × holding cost per box per year
where,
Economic order quantity = 500 boxes
And, the holding cost per box per year is $15
Now putting the values to the above formula
The annual holding cost is
= 500 boxes ÷ 2 × $15 per box per year
= 250 boxes × $15 per box per year
= $3,750

A) $84,500.
B) $65,000.
C) $88,700.
D) $66,950.
Answers
Answer:
c. $88,700
Explanation:
The computation of operating income for Winston Corporation is shown below:-
Particulars Dropping before Dropping after
Sales a $469,000 $383,500
($295,000 × 130%)
Variable cost b $181,000 $131,300
($101,000 × 130%)
Contribution margin $288,000 $252,200
(c = a - b)
Direct fixed cost d $160,000 $87,000
Segment margin e $128,000 $165,200
(e = c - d)
Allocated common cost f $76,500 $76,500
Operating income(loss) $51,500 $88,700
(g = d - e)
Therefore to reach the operating income(loss) we simply deduct the allocated common cost from segment margin.

Explanation:
Other expenses in business management are non-operating expenses that a business incurs. It is a cost that isn't related to the main operation of a company's business, such as interest expense, losses incurred from disposal of a fixed asset.
Other revenues in business are revenues that are derived by a company from any source other than the company's business operations, such as a company selling one of it's restaurants.
Discontinued operations in business describes a situation where parts of a company's core business are sold, abandoned or shut down and all the profits or losses are usually reported separately on an income statement.
Caden is 62 years old and has a traditional IRA with a balance of $220,000. Of that amount, $66,000 is from nondeductible contributions made while Caden was working. Earnings on the nondeductible contributions equal $20,600. If Caden withdraws $15,000 from his IRA this year, $_____ will NOT be subject to taxation.
Answers
Answer:
$4500.
Explanation:
So, we are given the following data or parameters or information in the question above;
=>" traditional IRA with a balance => $220,000."
=> "Of that amount, $66,000 is from nondeductible contributions made while Caden was working. "
=> "Earnings on the nondeductible contributions equal $20,600. "
=> "If Caden withdraws $15,000 from his IRA this year"
Hence;
The amount that will NOT be subject to taxation = (Amount from nondeductible contributions made while Caden was working) ÷ (traditional IRA with a balance) × (withdrawal from his IRA this year).
=> [66000/ 220000] × 15,000 = $4500.
NB: IRA stands for Individual retirement account and it is used in the United States of America to allow workers to save for their retirement and making sure that they are tax-free.
Fir the third quarter, the sales are 1,000 units, the seasonal index fir the quarter is 0.85. what is the deseasonalized sales for the quarter
Answers
Answer:
1,176 units
Explanation:
The demand which is created due to a season or specific time in each year is called seasonal demand.
Seasonal Demand = 1,000 units
Seasonal Index = 0.85
Using following formula we can calculate the deseasonalized sales
Seasonal demand = Deseasonalized Sales x Seasonal Index
Placing value in the formula
1,000 units = Deseasonalized Sales x 0.85
Deseasonalized Sales = 1,000 / 0.85 = 1176.47
Deseasonalized Sales = 1,176 units

Variable manufacturing overhead $5,800 (580 units × $10)
Fixed manufacturing overhead $12,180
Variable selling and admin cost $1,740 (580 units × $3)
Fixed selling and admin cost $8,120
Operating income using absorption costing $22,040
We simply deduct the all cost from the sales so that the operating income under absorption costing could come
