MSI has been approached by a fourth-grade teacher from Portland about the possibility of creating a specially designed game that would be customized for her classroom and environment. The teacher would like an educational game to correspond to her classroom coverage of the history of the Pacific Northwest, and the state of Oregon in particular. MSI has not sold its products directly to teachers or school systems in the past, but its Marketing Department identified that possibility during a recent meeting.
The teacher has offered to buy 1,000 copies of the CD at a price of $5 each. MSI could easily modify one of its existing educational programs about U.S. history to accommodate the request. The modifications would cost approximately $500. A summary of the information related to production of MSI’s current history program follows:
Direct materials $ 1.50
Direct labor 0.60
Variable manufacturing overhead 2.25
Fixed manufacturing overhead 2.00
Total cost per unit $ 6.35
Sales price per unit $ 12.00
Required:
1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order.
2. Should MSI accept the special order?
Yes
No
3. Suppose that the special order had been to purchase 1,000 copies of the program for $4.50 each. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order under this scenario.
4. Suppose that MSI is operating at full capacity. To accept the special order, it would have to reduce production of the history program. Compute the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

1. The incremental profit from accepting the special order is $150.

2. Yes, MSI should accept the special order. This is because it will increase profit by $150.

3. The incremental loss from accepting the special order is $350.

4. The special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order is $12.50 per unit.

Explanation:

Note that only variable costs are relevant to making decision on a special order. That is, fixed cost is not relevant. Therefore, we have:

Total variable cost per unit = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.50 + $0.60 + $2.25 = $4.35.

We then proceed as follows:

1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order.

Incremental profit (or loss) = ((Special order price per unit - Total variable cost per unit) * Units of special order) - Modification cost = (($5 - $4.35) * 1,000) - $500 = $150

Therefore, the incremental profit from accepting the special order is $150.

2. Should MSI accept the special order?

Yes, MSI should accept the special order. This is because it will increase profit by $150.

3. Suppose that the special order had been to purchase 1,000 copies of the program for $4.50 each. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order under this scenario.

Incremental profit (or loss) = ((Special order price per unit - Total variable cost per unit) * Units of special order) - Modification cost = (($4.50 - $4.35) * 1,000) - $500 = ($350), or –$350

Therefore, the incremental loss from accepting the special order is $350.

4. Suppose that MSI is operating at full capacity. To accept the special order, it would have to reduce production of the history program. Compute the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

This can be calculated as follows:

Modification cost per unit = Modification cost / Units of special order = $500 / 1,000 = $0.50

Special order price = Regular price + Modification cost per unit = $12 + $0.50 = $12.50 per unit

Therefore, the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order is $12.50 per unit.

Travel expenses incurred by the sales department of a manufacturing company would be classified as: a. indirect labor b. manufacturing overhead c. a period cost d. a conversion cost e. a product cost

Answers

Answer:

c. a period cost

Explanation:

Option C, period cos is the correct answer because the period cost is not related to the production and manufacturing of the commodity. Rather it is the cost incurred outside the factory such as marketing expenses, travelling expenses, etc. Therefore, the option "period cost" is the correct answer.  

Travel expenses incurred by the sales department of a manufacturing company would be classified as: c. a period cost

Period costs are indirect costs incurred in the production of goods and services. These costs are not tied directly to production processes.

Unlike product costs that are assigned to one particular product, Period costs are not assigned to one particular product or the cost of inventory.

Period costs are also not included in the inventory valuation hence are treated as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

Other examples of Period costs includes: marketing expenses, indirect labor etc.

On June 1, $40,000 of treasury bonds were purchased between interest dates. The broker commission was $600. The bonds pay interest at 12%, which is paid semiannually on January 1 and July 1. How much interest revenue will be recorded on July 1?
a. $400.
b. $2,000.
c. $2,400.
d. $406.

Answers

Answer: $400

Explanation:

The amount of interest revenue that will be recorded on July 1 will be calculated thus:

Interest revenue = Face value × Interest percentage × 1/12

= $40,000 × 12% × 1/12

= $40000 × 0.12 × 0.08333

= $400

Therefore, the interest revenue that will be recorded on July 1 is $400.

Answers

Answer:

Alpha Moose Transporters

If Alpha Moose expects to incur flotation costs of 5.00% of the value of its newly-raised equity funds, then the flotation-adjusted (net) cost of its new common stock (rounded to two decimal places) should be:

= $30.84.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Current stock price = $33.35 per share

Dividend per share = $1.36

Flotation costs =  5.00%

Flotation-adjusted stock price = $31.68 ($33.35 * 0.95)

Expected dividend growth rate = 8.70%

Expected rate of returns = 4.29% ($1.36/$31.68 * 100)

Cost of new common stock = Dividend per share/(Expected rate of returns - Dividend growth rate)

= $1.36/(0.0429 - 0.087)

= $1.36/0.0441

= $30.84

You purchased two WXO 30 call option contracts at a quoted price of $.35. What is your net gain or loss on this investment if the price of WXO is $33.70 on the option expiration date

Answers

Answer: $670

Explanation:

Since the quoted price of $.35, the cost to purchase two WXO 30 call option will be: = $0.35 × 2 = $0.70

Then, the price of RADM 30 call option contract will be calculated as;

= $33.7 - $30

= $3.70

The net gain on one RADM 30 call option will then be:

= $3.70 - $0.35

= $3.35.

Therefore, the net gain on 2 RADM30 call options will be:

= $3.35 × 2

= $6.70

Since there are 100 shares in a option contract, the gain will be:

= $6.70 × 100

Answer:

The correct answer is "12,500 units" and "$100 per unit".

Explanation:

Given:

Selling price,

= $10 per unit

Variable cost per unit,

= $6 per unit

Fixed cost,

= 30,000

Desired profit,

= 20,000

Now,

The contribution margin per unit will be:

= [tex]Selling \ price - Variable \ cost[/tex]

Agan Interiors provides home and office decorating assistance to customers. In normal operation 2.5 customers arrive per hour. One design consultant answers problems. The consultant averages 10 minutes per customer. Arrivals follow a Poisson distribution and the service times are exponentially distributed.

Required:
a. Compute the operating characteristics of the customer waiting line, assuming Poisson arrivals and exponential service times.
b. Service goals dictate that an arriving customer should not wait for service more than an average of 7 minutes. Is this goal being met? If not, what action do you recommend?
c. If the consultant can reduce the average time spent per customer to 9 minutes, what is the mean service rate?

Answers

Explanation:

we find the mean service rate at 10 minutes

= 60/10 = 6 min per hour

λ = 2.5

a.

1. we find the average number that are waiting in line

Lq = 2.5²/6(6-2.5)

= 6.25/21

= 0.2976

2. we find the average customers that are in this system

= 2.5²/6(6-2.5) + 2.5/6

= 0.2976 + 0.4167

L = 0.714266

approximately 0.7143

3. we have to determine the average time that a customers stays waitong

= Lq/λ

= 0.2976/2.5

= 0.11904 hours.

we convert this to minutes

= 0.11904 x 60

Wq = 7.1424 minutes

4. we find the average time that a customer is going to stay in the system

= 7.1424 + 60/6

w = 17.14 minutes

b. this goal is not being met here. This is because the service wait time is 7.14 minutes which is greater than 7 minutes. In order for them to  meet this goal, they either have to hire other consultants or they have to raise their mean service rate.

c. mean would be =

60/9 = 6.67 per hour

Wq = 2.5/6.67(6.67-2.5)

= 2.5/27.814

= 0.0899 hour

= 0.0899*60

= 5.4 minutes

NBS Co. is considering a project that has the following cash flow and cost of capital (r) data. What is the project's MIRR

Answers

Answer:

13.50%

Explanation:

Please find attached an image showing r and the cash flows

MIRR = (Future value of a firm's cash inflow / present value of the firm's cash outflow)^ (1/n)  - 1

n = number of years

present value of the firm's cash outflow = $800

Future value of a firm's cash inflow

Future value of year 1's cash flow = 350 x (1.11^2) =  $431.24

Future value of year 2's cash flow =  350 x (1.11^1) = $388.50

Future value of year 3's cash flow = $350

Add the future values together = 1169.74

MIRR = [(1169.74 / 800)^(1/3)] - 1 = 0.1350 = 13.50%

Answers

Answer:

$21,250

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the ending balance in the inventory account

Using this formula

Cost of goods sold =​ Opening Inventory + Purchase during the year - Ending balance of inventory

Let plug in the formula

$28,000 = $15,250 + $34,000 - Ending balance of inventory

Ending balance of inventory = $49,250 - $28,000

Ending balance of inventory = $21,250

Therefore the ending balance in the inventory account is $21,250

Neptune Company produces toys and other items for use in beach and resort areas. A small, inflatable toy has come onto the market that the company is anxious to produce and sell. The new toy will sell for $3.30 per unit. Enough capacity exists in the company’s plant to produce 30,200 units of the toy each month. Variable expenses to manufacture and sell one unit would be $2.08, and fixed expenses associated with the toy would total $54,766 per month. The company's Marketing Department predicts that demand for the new toy will exceed the 30,200 units that the company is able to produce. Additional manufacturing space can be rented from another company at a fixed expense of $2,738 per month. Variable expenses in the rented facility would total $2.31 per unit, due to somewhat less efficient operations than in the main plant.

1. What is the monthly break-even point for the new toy in unit sales and dollar sales?
2. How many units must be sold each month to attain a target profit of $12,474 per month?
3. If the sales manager receives a bonus of 20 cents for each unit sold in excess of the break-even point, how many units must be sold each month to attain a target profit that equals a 29% return on the monthly investment in fixed expenses?

Answers

Answer:

1) Break-even point in unit sales: 51,680 units

  Break-even point in dollar sales: $144,704

2) The units that must be sold each month to attain a target profit of $12,474 per month are:

= 63,669 units

3) The units that must be sold each month to attain a target profit that equals a 29% return on the monthly investment in fixed expenses are:

= 108,574 units

Explanation:

 1. On the first 30,200 units  

Sales price              $3.30

Variable expenses     $2.08

Contribution margin   $1.22

 

Above 30,200 units  

Sales price               $3.30

Variable expenses       $2.31

Contribution margin    $0.99

Fixed cost for initial 30,200 units = $54,766

Less: Contribution Margin (30,200 units * $1.22) + $36,844

Remaining uncovered cost = $17,922 ($54,766 - $36,844)

Monthly rental for additional space = $2,738

Total fixed costs covered by remaining sales = $20,660 ($17,922 + $2,738)

Required units = $20,660 / 0.99 = 20,869 units

Breakeven units = 30,200 + 20,869= 51,069 units

51,069 * $3.3 = $168,528

2)  

Working: $12,474 / 0.99 = 12,600 units

Thus total units = 51,069 + 12,600 = 63,669

3)  

Working: Desired monthly expenses: $54,766 + $2,738 = 57,504

57,504 * 20% = 11,501

Unit contribution margin: 0.99 - 0.20 = 0.79

Contribution margin = Target profit / Unit contribution margin = 11,501 / 0.20 = 57,505 units

51,069 units + 57,505 units = 108,574 units

Answer:

Monopolistically Competitive

Monopolistically Competitive

Neither

Perfectly Competitive

both

Monopolistically Competitive

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

A monopolistic competition is when there are many firms selling differentiated products in an industry. A monopolistic competition has characteristics of both a monopoly and a perfect competition. the demand curve is downward sloping. it sets the price for its goods and services.

An example of monopolistic competition are restaurants  

When firms are earning positive economic profit, in the long run, firms enter into the industry. This drives economic profit to zero

If firms are earning negative economic profit, in the long run, firms leave the industry.  This drives economic profit to zero

in the long run, only normal profit is earned

In a monopolistic competitive market, firms always set the price higher than their marginal costs. As a result, the market cannot be productively efficient.

On August 1, Lola Company’s assets are $30,000 and its liabilities are $10,000. On August 4, Lola issues a sustainability report. On August 5, ownership invests $3,000 cash and $7,000 of equipment in Lola. After the investment, what is the amount of equity for Lola?

Answers

Answer: $30,000

Explanation:

Before the investment, Equity was:

= Assets - Liabilities

= 30,000 - 10,000

= $20,000

The owner then invested $3,000 and $7,000 therefore making a total of $10,000.

Equity becomes

= 20,000 + 10,000

= $30,000

The equity is $30,000

Lola's company assets are $30,000

The liabilities are $10,000

Equity= $30,000-$10,000

= $20,000

On August 5, ownership invests $3,000 in cash and $7,000 in equipment

= $3,000+$7,000

= $10,000

The amount of equity for Lola is

= $20,000+$10,000

= $30,000

Suppose Baa-rated bonds currently yield 6.1%, while Aa-rated bonds yield 4.1%. Now suppose that due to an increase in the expected inflation rate, the yields on both bonds increase by 1.0%. What would happen to the confidence index? (Round your answers to 4 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Confidence index increases from 0.6721 to 0.7183

Explanation:

The computation of the confidence index is shown below:

Initial Confidence Index is

= Aa-rated bonds yield ÷ Baa-rated bonds yield

= 4.1% ÷ 6.1%

= 0.6721

Since the yields on both bonds increase by 1.0%

So, the confidence index after increase in yield is

= (4.1% + 1%) ÷ (6.1% + 1%)

= 0.7183

So,  Confidence index increases from 0.6721 to 0.7183
