Carlson Bottling Corporation is considering the purchase of a new bottling machine. The machine would cost $300,000 and has an estimated useful life of 8 years with zero salvage value. Management estimates that the new bottling machine will provide net annual cash flows of $52,500. Management also believes that the new bottling machine will save the company money because it is expected to be more reliable than other machines, and thus will reduce downtime. (a) What is the net present value of the project? Assume a discount rate of 9%. (b) How much would the reduction in downtime have to be worth in order for the project to be acceptable?
Answer:
a) initial outlay = -$300,000
net cash flows years 1 - 8 = $52,500
discount rate = 9%
using a financial calculator, NPV = -$9,422, this means that the project should be rejected
b) In order for the project to be accepted, its NPV ≥ 0, therefore, the reduction in downtime should be worth at least $9,422 (at present day dollars).
If we analyze it on a yearly basis, the reduction in downtime should be worth $9,422 / 5.5348 (PV annuity, 9%, 8 periods) = $1,702.32
Monopolistically competitive firms are troublesome to regulate for all of the following reasons, EXCEPT:_________.
a. they comprise a large proportion of the economy.
b. their market and political power renders them virtually untouchable.
c. it could result in fewer choices for consumers.
d. regulating prices only magnifies the inefficiency typical of these firms.
e. the government may be forced to subsidize firms to keep them in business.
Answer: b. their market and political power renders them virtually untouchable.
Explanation:
Monopolistically competitive firms typically comprise a large proportion of the economy and are therefore troublesome to regulate due to their sheer number.
Regulating them could also be troublesome for the economy as it might reduce the options that consumers have as well as exacerbate the inefficiencies of said firms.
They are not however, virtually untouchable as there are a myriad of laws that enable the Government to regulate them if the Government feels it is in the best interest of the consumers.

4. None of the above
c. By what percent does this change in sales represent?
1. 0.93%
2. 1.21%
3. 1.17%
4. None of the above
Answer:
Jimmy Choo
a. 4. None of the above
b. 3. 1,172
c. 4. None of the above
Explanation:
1) Data and Calculations:
Leather and metals: $25/pair
Shoe boxes: $1/pair
Shoemaker wages: $10/pair
Variable costs = $36/pair
Selling price to boutique: $100.00
Contribution = $64/pair
2) Fixed Costs and Profit:
Advertising & promotion: $200,000
Executive Salaries $300,000
Total fixed costs = $500,000
Net profit = $140,000
3) Per unit gross marketing contribution:
Marketing cost per unit = $2 ($200,000/100,000 units)
Gross marketing contribution = $64/$2 = 3200%
4) Increase fixed costs by $75,000 to $575,000
Sales unit to sell = Fixed costs + profit/contribution margin per unit
= $575,000 + 140,000 /$64
= 1,172
5) Change in sales:
Change = 1,172 - 1,000 = 172
Percentage change = 172/1,000 x 100 = 17.2%

Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as all the data are omitted. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
Outdoor Lighting Supply expects the following for 2018:
Net cash provided by operating activities of $284,000
Net cash provided by financing activities of $67,000
Net cash provided by investing activities of $76,000
Cash dividends paid to stockholders of $29,000
Outdoor expects to spend $150,000 to modernize its showroom.
How much free cash flow does Outdoor expect for 2018?
Select one:
A. $134,000
B. $112,000
C. $264,000
D. $105,000
The explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:
Free cash flow (FCF) refers to the cash that is generated by a company through its operations minus capital expenditure such as cost of acquiring new assets as well as maintenance Capital expenditure and capital work in progress.
Therefore, free cash flow can be calculated using the following formula:
FCF = NCO - Capital expenditure ..................................... (1)
Where, for Outdoor Lighting Supply;
FCF = Free cash flow = ?
NCO = Net cash provided by operating activities = $284,000
Capital expenditure = Amount expected to spend to modernize showroom = $150,000
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
FCF = $284,000 - $150,000
FCF = 134,000
The amount of free cash flow Outdoor expects for 2018 is $134,000. Therefore, the correct option is A. $134,000.
On January 1, 1997, Brian’s stock portfolio is worth $100,000. On September 30, 1997, $5,000 is withdrawn from the portfolio, and immediately after this withdrawal the portfolio has a value of $105,000. Twelve months later, the value of the portfolio is $108,000, and Brian adds $3,000 worth of stock to his portfolio. On December 31, 1998, the portfolio is worth $100,000. What is the two-year time-weighted rate of return for Brian’s stock portfolio?
Answer:
1.93%
Explanation:
Time weighed rate can be calculated by using the formula below
TWR = [(1+HPR1)+(1+HPR2)+(1+HPR3) ...(1+HPRn)
TWR = [(1+HPR1)+(1+HPR2)+(1+HPR3) ...(1+HPRn)HPR = (End value - initial value)/end value
For HPR1:
End value = 110000
Initial value = 100000
(110000-100000)/100000
= 10000/100000
= 0.1
1 + 0.1 = 1.1
For HPR2
End value = 108000
Initial value = 105000
3000/105000
= 0.0286
1 + 0.0286
= 1.0286
For HPR3
End value = 100000
Initial value = 108000 + 3000 that was added to make it 111000
(100000-111000)/111000
= -0.0991
1-0.0991
= 0.9009
TWR = (1.1*1.0286*0.9009)-1
= 0.01933
0.0193 x 100
= 1.93%
True or False: Price equals marginal cost is a sufficient condition for profit maximization.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The profit maximizing rule is the rule in which the Marginal cost is equivalent to the Marginal revenue
i.e.
Marginal revenue = Marginal cost
MR = MC
In the case of perfect competition,
P = MC
Price = Marginal cost
For the firms that are price maker, in this the demand is downward and the marginal revenue is below to the demand curve
So
in this,
The price > MR = MC
Therefore this is not a sufficient condition
Hence, the given statement is false
Assume a project has earnings before depreciation and taxes of $15,000, depreciation of $25,000, and that the firm has a 30% tax bracket. What are the after-tax cash flows for the project
Answer: $12,000
Explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question:
Earnings before depreciation and taxes = $15,000
Less: depreciation = $25,000
The earnings before tax = -$10,000
Less: taxes at 30% = -$3,000
Earnings after tax = -$13,000
Add: depreciation = $25,000
Cash flow = $25,000 - $13,000
= $12,000
Boswell Company manufactures two products, Regular and Supreme. Boswell’s overhead costs consist of machining, $5000000; and assembling, $2500000. Information on the two products is: Regular Supreme Direct labor hours 10000 15000 Machine hours 10000 30000 Number of parts 90000 160000 Overhead applied to Supreme using activity-based costing is
Answer:
$5,350,000
Explanation:
The computation of the overhead applied to supreme using activity based costing is shown below:
= Machine hours × machine hour rate + number of parts × cost per part
= 30,000 × ($5,000,000 ÷ (10,000 + 30,000)) + 160,000 × ($2,500,000 ÷ (90,000 + 160,000))
= 30,000 × $125 + 160,000 × $10
= $3,750,000 + $1,600,000
= $5,350,000
Hence, the overhead applied to supreme is $5,350,000

encourage customers to pay more promptly and to reduce the amount of uncollectible
accounts. Sales are still 40% cash and 60% credit but the assistant controller predicted
that this would cause credit sales to be collected 30% in the month of the sale, 50% in
the month following sale, and 18% in the second month following sale; 2% are
uncollectible.

Answer:
a) Month Sales
April $300,000
May $320,000
June $370,000
Schedule of expected collections
For the month of June, 202x
Cash sales during June = $370,000 x 40% = $148,000
Collection from June's credit sales = $222,000 x 30% = $66,600
Collection from May's credit sales = $192,000 x 40% = $76,800
Collection from April's credit sales = $180,000 x 26% = $46,800
Total cash collections during June = $338,200
b) Month DM purchases
April $45,000
May $54,000
June $60,000
Schedule of expected cash payments for direct materials purchases
For the month of June, 202x
Cash purchases during June = $60,000 x 50% = $30,000
Cash payments for May's purchases = $27,000 x 40% = $10,800
Cash payments for April's purchases = $22,500 x 60% = $13,500
Total cash payments during June = $54,300
c) Month Sales
April $299,000
May $337,000
June $387,000
Schedule of expected collections
For the month of June, 202x
Cash sales during June = $370,000 x 40% = $148,000
Collection from June's credit sales = $222,000 x 30% = $66,600
Collection from May's credit sales = $192,000 x 50% = $96,000
Collection from April's credit sales = $180,000 x 18% = $32,400
Total cash collections during June = $343,000
It would be worth to pay the collector since the 2% reduction in uncollectible accounts is worth much more than the $1,000 that he/she earns.
d) Month DM purchases
April $45,000
May $54,000
June $60,000
Schedule of expected cash payments for direct materials purchases
For the month of June, 202x
Cash purchases during June = $60,000 x 40% = $24,000
Cash payments for May's purchases = $32,400 x 40% = $12,960
Cash payments for April's purchases = $27,000 x 60% = $16,200
Total cash payments during June = $53,160
The PW of five independent projects have been calculated at an MARR of 12% per year. Select the best combination at a capital investment limit of (a) $25,000, (b) $49,000, and (c) unlimited.
Initial Life,
Project Investment, Years PW,
S -15,000 6 8,540
A - 26,000 8 12,100
M -10,000 6 3,000
E 25,000 4 10
H -40,000 12 15350
Answer:
Project Investment Years PW,
S -15,000 6 8,540
A - 26,000 8 12,100
M -10,000 6 3,000
E 25,000 4 10
H -40,000 12 15350
I assume that the present worth of the projects is their net present value (NPV), so all the projects have a positive NPV. I believe that there is a mistake on project E since the initial outlay is generally negative, no one will pay you to start a project, although it is also the project with the lowest NPV.
a) If I had $25,000, I would invest in projects S and M which will increase my present wealth by $3,000 + $8,540 = $11,540. If something really strange happened and you would actually receive money for starting a project (project E), I would also take it even if its NPV is only $10, since I'm not spending money, instead I'm receiving money.
b) If I had $49,000, I would invest in projects S and A which will increase my present wealth by $8,540 + $12,100 = $20,640. Again, if something really strange happened and you would actually receive money for starting a project (project E), I would also take it.
c) If I had unlimited resources, I would invest in all the projects since they all have positive NPVs.
3. Suppose local governments throughout the United States increase their tax on business inventories. What would you expect to happen to U.S. investment? Why?
Answer:
The investment will fall.
Explanation:
The U.S investment will fall because the increase in the tax will reduce its corporate profit and gross domestic investment will fall. Since the primary motive of every firm or company is to earn profit but if their profit decreases then the investor will not invest. Moreover, the company or investor will choose a different country where it can make more profit. Therefore, a rise in tax rate demotivates the investment.
If the local governments increase their tax on business inventories, then, investment will decline.
Basically, when there are increase of tax on business inventories, the country's gross domestic private investment will fall because investor are discouraged to invest.
The gross private domestic investment measure the amount of money that domestic businesses invest within their own country
Hence, the high tax will discourage current and new investors.
In conclusion, If the local governments increase their tax on business inventories, then, investment will decline.

Given the following data, what is cost of goods sold as determined by the FIFO method?
Sales 280 units
Beginning inventory 250 units at $6 per unit
Purchases 128 units at $11 per unit
A. $3,080
B. $1,680
C. $2,320
D, $1,830
Answer:
The answer is D. $1,830
Explanation:
FIFO means First in First out.
It is one of the inventory methods along with LIFO(Last in First out), average weighted cost and specific identification.
FIFO literally means the inventory bought first will be the first to be sold. Leaving the last inventories bought as the ending inventory.
In this question, Cost of Sales according to FIFO is:
250 units x $6 = $1,500
30 units at $11 = $330
Total =. $1,830
Therefore, the cost of sales under this method is $1,830
Fifth National Bank just issued some new preferred stock. The issue will pay an annual dividend of $22 in perpetuity, beginning 11 years from now. If the market requires a return of 3.6 percent on this investment, how much does a share of preferred stock cost today
Answer:
$429.06
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of today preferred stock share is shown below:
But before that first determine the preferred stock value of 11 years from now which is
= Annual dividend ÷ rate of return
= $22 ÷ 0.036
= $611.11
Now the current value is
= $611.11 × Present value of discount factor at 3.6% in 10 years
= $611.11 ÷ 1.036^10
= $429.06
The oversupply of hospitals and in-patient beds in the U.S. produced by the Hill-Burton legislation is the result of: A. The advent of managed care B. Change in the focus of medical education C. Technological advances D. Clinical guidelines E. A and C
Answer:
The oversupply of hospitals and in-patient beds in the U.S. produced by the Hill-Burton legislation is the result of:
E. A and C
(A. The advent of managed care and C. Technological advances).
Explanation:
Affordable Care Act produced a managed care system that aligns financial incentives to better care at lower costs. This has eliminated the need for in-patient admissions. This is because the Affordable Care Act also created Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) which in turn are focused on boosting preventive efforts in order to attain quality goals. With preventive healthcare, there is reduced need for in-patient admissions to utilize the hospital beds.
Another factor that has reduced in-patient admissions is the prevailing technological advances, especially in the areas of telehealth and telemedicine. These have also drastically reduced the need for in-patients at hospitals, thus freeing more hospital beds as patients can now receive healthcare services from even remote locations.

A monopolist can sell 200 units of output for $36 per unit. Alternatively, it can sell 201 units of output for $35.80 per unit. The marginal revenue of the 201st unit of output is
Answer:
There is a negative marginal revenue from the sale of 201st units of - $4.2
Explanation:
The marginal revenue is the revenue of the additional unit of output sold. Thus, the marginal revenue is the revenue earned from the 201st unit of the output sold. To calculate the marginal revenue of the 201st unit, we will calculate the total revenue for 200 units and deduct it from the total revenue for 201 units.
Total revenue - 200 Units = 200 * 36 = $7200
Total revenue - 201 Units = 201 * 35.8 = $7195.8
Marginal revenue - 201st unit = 7195.8 - 7200 = - $4.2
There is a negative marginal revenue from the sale of 201st units of - $4.2
Suppose you save for a down payment on a house by investing $1200 each quarter into an account that gives 3.6% annual interest, compounded quarterly (four times a year). How much will you have after 5 years?
Answer:
FV= $26,167.17
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Quarterly deposit= $1,200
i= 0.036/4= 0.009
n= 5*4= 20
To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= quarterly deposit
FV= {1,200*[(1.009^20) - 1]} / 0.009
FV= $26,167.17

a. 30.00%
b. 60.00%
c. 1.50%
d. 15.00%
Answer:
Option A, 30.00%, is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The investment amount = $5910000
Useful life = 20 years
Residual value = 0
Expected net income = $17730000
Use the below formula to find the average rate of return by using the given values.
The average rate of return = Average Annual Net Income / Average investment
Now insert all the given values in the formula in order to compute the average rate of return.
[ ( 17730000 / 20 ) / ( 5910000 / 2 ) ] * 100
[ 886500 / 2955000 ] * 100 =30 %

Broker James has had his license suspended for two years. The licenses of all the broker-associates and salespersons who work for James are
Available Options Are:
A. Revoked, subject to reinstatement after 30 days.
B. Not affected by the suspension
C. Automatically suspended
D. Placed on inactive status
Answer:
