Airline F leases all its aircraft under finance leases. Airline O leases all its aircraft under operating leases. Assuming that the two airlines report under US GAAP and are otherwise identical except for the mentioned lease classifications, which of the following comments is true?

a. Airline O has lower rent expense reported on its income statement
b. Airline F has a lower EBITDA margin
c. None of the listed answers
d. Airline O has more lease liabilities
e. Airline O has less lease assets at the inception of the lease

Answers

Answer: e. Airline O has less lease assets at the inception of the lease

Explanation:

With operating leases, the entity leasing the asset or the lessee, does not get the rights to ownership of the asset being leased but instead simply pay a fee or sort of rent for leasing the asset.

With a finance lease however, ownership is passed to the lessee for the lease period and the lessee would have to depreciate the asset and record it in its books.

Airline O will therefore not record any assets but Airline F will. This means that Airline F will have more assets than O because it had to record its assets but O did not.

Sage Company is operating at 90% of capacity and is currently purchasing a part used in its manufacturing operations for $13.00 per unit. The unit cost for the business to make the part is $22.00, including fixed costs and $11.00, excluding fixed costs. If 32,354 units of the part are normally purchased during the year but could be manufactured using unused capacity, what would be the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it

Answers

Answer:

$64,708 cost decrease

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the amount of differential cost increase or decrease from making the part rather than purchasing it

First step

Purchase cost =$13

Manufacturing cost = $11 (variable)

Profit in manufacturing =$13-$11

Profit in manufacturing=$2

Now let determine the amount of differential cost increase or decrease

Cost decrease by =$2*32,354

Cost ​decrease by $64,708

Therefore the amount of differential cost DECREASE from making the part rather than purchasing it is $64,708

Compute straight-line depreciation on the building at the end of one year, assuming an estimated 10-year useful life and a $16,000 estimated residual value. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)What should be the book value of (a) the land and (b) the building at the end of year 2

Answers

Answer:

Missing word "Bridge City Consulting bought a building and the land on which it is located for $120,000 cash. The land is estimated to represent 70 percent of the purchase price. The company paid $10,000 for building renovations before it was ready for use."

Total Cost of Land and Building (100%) = $120,000

Cost of Land (70%) = $84,000

Cost of Building (30%) = $36,000

Cost of Building Renovations = $10,000

Total Cost of Building = $36,000 + $10,000

Total Cost of Building = $46,000

1. Annual Depreciation(Year End Depreciation) = (Cost of Building - Residual Value)/ Number of Year

Annual Depreciation = $46,000 - $16,000 / 10

Annual Depreciation = $30,000 / 10

Annual Depreciation = $3,000

2. Book Value of Land at the end of two years = $84,000

Book Value of Building at the end of two years = $46,000 - ($3,000*2 year) = $46,000 - $6,000 = $40,000

Hence, Book Value of Land and Building at the end of two year is = $84,000 + $40,000 = $124,000

Answers

Answer:

$842

Explanation:

The computation of the One year from now bond C should sell is shown below;

But before that we have to determined the expected yield to maturity for bond C in one year :

So,  

1.0799^3 = 1.06 x (1 + r)^2

1.188 = (1 + r)^2

√1.188 = √(1 + r)^2

1.08999 = 1 + r

r = 0.08999

= 9%

Now

the yield to maturity  = (future value ÷ present value)^0.5 - 1

0.09 + 1 = ($1,000 ÷ value in 1 year)^0.5  

1.09 = ($1,000 ÷ value in 1 year)^0.5

1.09^2 = $1,000 ÷ value in 1 year

So,

value in 1 year is

= $1,000 ÷ 1.09^2

= $1,000 ÷ 1.1881

= $841.68

Answers

Answer:

$652,858

Explanation:

Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity

                                                    = $717,474 ÷  364,200

                                                    = $1.97 per direct labor hour

Allocated overheads = Predetermined overhead rate x Actual Activity

                                    = $1.97 x  331,400 direct labor hours

                                     = $652,858

therefore,

The overhead allocated for May is $652,858.

Refinancing Short-term Debt

The amount of short-term debt that the company can exclude from its statement of financial position at December 31, Year 1:

b. Depends on the demonstrated ability to consummate the refinancing.

Explanation:

Demonstrating the ability to consummate the refinancing agreement of short-term obligations to long-term obligations enables the borrowing entity to exclude the obligations from its current liabilities and to classify the obligations as noncurrent.  This ability is demonstrated when an entity issues post-balance-sheet-date long-term obligation or equity securities or enters into a financing agreement that meets some criteria. These criteria are that the agreement lasts more than 1 year, is noncancelable by the lender, no agreement violation exists at the balance sheet date, and the lender does not default on the agreement.

Snack food vendors and beer distributors earn some monopoly profits in their local markets but see them slowly erode from various new substitutes. When California voted on legalizing marijuana, which side would you think that California beer distributors were on

Answers

Answer: Opposing side

Explanation:

Substitutes to the products offered by monopolies are frowned upon by monopolies because it means that they cannot raise prices whenever they want anymore because people could simply switch to the substitutes.

Substitutes therefore reduce the power of monopolies. Marijuana is a substitute to beer as a recreational product so beer companies would be opposed to it being legalized as it would pose a threat to whatever dominance they have in the recreational sector.

One of the top-selling items at a gift shop at Hilo, HI are autographed pictures of Jack Star. Sales are 18 pictures per week, and the supplier charges $60 per picture. Currently the gift shop orders a 6-week supply at one time from the supplier. The total cost of placing each order is $45. Annual holding costs are $15 per picture. Assume that the shop operates 52 weeks/year.
A) What is the shop's current average inventory level?
B) What is the shop's current annual inventory holding cost?
C) What is the shop's current annual ordering cost (total cost of placing orders over the entire year)?
D) If the shop wishes to minimize total annual cost, what size orders should be placed?
E) At the optimal ordering quantity, what is the ordering and inventory holding cost per picture sold?
F) At the optimal ordering quantity, what is the shop's inventory turns per year?

Answers

Answer:

a. 54

b. 810 dollars

c. 390 dollars

d. 75 pictures

e. 561.6 dollars and 562.5 dollars

f. 38 pictures

Explanation:

demand per week = 18 pictures

annually this demand = 18 *52 = 936

charge per unit = 60 dollars

order for 6 weeks = 6*18 = 108 quantities

cost of ordering = 45 dollars

cost of holding annually = 15 dollars

a. current average inventory

= (18*6)/2

= 54 pictures

b. current annual holding cost

(108/2)*15

= 810 dollars

c. current annual holding cost

= 936/108 * 45

= 390 dollars

d. size orders to be placed

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2*936*45}{15} }[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{5616}[/tex]

= 74.9

≈ 75 pictures have to be ordered

e. ordering holding cost per picture

936/75 * 45

= 561.6 dollars

and inventory holding cost per picture

= 75/2 * 15

=562.5 dollars

f. shop inventory per year at optimal ordering quantity

= 75/2

= 37.5

≈ 38 pictures

An individual works downtown and pays $600 per month in rent for an apartment located 10 miles from her office. She has calculated that she spends 30 minutes per day driving each way to the office and it costs her $4 per day in gas and lost productivity. Using the framework of the bid-rent model, how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment downtown, assuming a 20 workday month?
a. $440.
b. $680.
c. $520.
d. $80.

Answers

Answer:

b. $680

Explanation:

Calculation to determine how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment downtown, assuming a 20 workday month

First step to determine the Cost of commuting using this formula

Cost of commuting = Cost of gas and productivity × 20 workday month

Let plug in the formula

Cost of commuting =$4*20

Cost of commuting =$80

Now let determine how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment

Using this formula

Amount willing to pay= Total rent + Cost of commuting

Let plug in the formula

Amount willing to pay= $600 + $80

Amount willing to pay= $680

Therefore how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment downtown, assuming a 20 workday month is $680

Pasadena Candle Inc. projected sales of 800,000 candles for January. The estimated January 1 inventory is 35,000 units, and the desired January 31 inventory is 20,000 units. What is the budgeted production (in units) for January?

Answers

Answer:

785,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the budgeted production (in units) for January

BUDGETED PRODUCTION (in units) FOR JANUARY

Expected units to be sold 800000

Add Desired ending inventory, Dec 31 20000

Total units available 820000

(800,000+20,000)

Less Estimated beginning inventory, Jan 1 (35000)

Total units to be produced 785000

(820,000-35,000)

Therefore the budgeted production (in units) for January is 785,000

Patty’s Pies has sells 900 pies in August for $20.00 each. At the end of August Patty advertises her pies in the local Valupak which will mail to 25,000 local houses. Statistics show that approximately .5% (one half of one percent) of Valupak recipients result in a sale. Based upon this information, compute the amount of sales Patty would budget for September.

Answers

Answer: $20,500

Explanation:

The amount of sales that Patty would budget for September will be calculated thus:

The expected increase in sales unit will be calculated as:

= 0.5% × 25,000

= 125

Therefore, the unit of sale in September will then be:

= 900 pies + 125 pies

= 1025 pies

Then, the total amount of sale will be:

= 1,025 × $20

= $20,500

A ______ strategy aims at securing a competitive advantage by serving buyers in the target market niche at a lower cost and lower price than rivals. Multiple choice question. focused low-cost overall low-cost resource-based cost best-cost

Answers

Answer:

focused low-cost

Explanation:

Competitive advantage can be defined as conditions, factors or circumstances that allow a business firm (organization) to manufacture finished goods or services better and perhaps cheaper than other (rival) firms in the same industry. Thus, it's responsible for putting a business firm in a superior or more favorable position than rival firms.

This ultimately implies that, a competitive advantage has a significant impact on a business because it increases its level of sales, revenue generation and profit margin when compared to rival firms in the same industry.

A focused low-cost strategy is a strategic business model that's typically focused on a narrow or small customer base (segment) while providing low-cost goods and services to the customers. Thus, it is a business strategy that involves lowering the price of goods and services in order to generate more revenue and gain a competitive advantage over competitors or rivals in the same industry.

Hence, a focused low-cost strategy is typically aimed at securing a competitive advantage by means of serving buyers or consumers in the target market niche at a lower cost and lower price than rivals in the same industry.

A company needs 550,000 items per year. It costs the company $330 to prepare a production run of these items and $5 to produce each item. If it also costs the company $0.75 per year for each item stored, find the number of items that should be produced in each run so that total costs of production and storage are minimized. items/run

Answers

Answer:

Company A

The number of items that should be produced in each run to minimize total costs of production and storage is:

= 22,000 units

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Total annual demand = 550,000 units

Cost per production run = $330

Cost per unit = $5

Storage (holding) cost per item = $0.75

The number of items that should be produced in each run to minimize total costs of production and storage is given by Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) formula

= square root of (2 * 550,000 * $330)/$0.75

= square root of $363,000,000/$0.75

= square root of 484,000,000

= 22,000 units

Case :
"Dear Mr. President—Please Cancel our Project!": The Honolulu Elevated Rail Project

This case is a great current example of a very expensive project that was kicked off because of an assumed need—to relieve congestion in downtown Honolulu through an elevated urban rail system. Critics argue that in addition to having a ballooning cost, the actual planning was poorly conceived, leaving Honolulu with an intrusive and ugly rail system through the downtown area, ruining panoramic views, and impeding traffic. Additionally, advocates underestimated the power needs for the rail system, requiring the transport authority to renegotiate electricity fees for the system. Finally, the original costs that were assumed for the project were calculated during an economic downturn and with the economy booming again, the costs of the project have gone up dramatically. All of these elements points to a state Governor who is anxious to be rid of the project and hoping that President Trump will deny additional federal funding, in which case the project will likely be cancelled.

Required:
a. Why are public works projects like the Honolulu Rail project nearly impossible to stop once they have been approved, even if later cost estimates skyrocket?
b. Project Management researchers have charged that many large infrastructure projects, like this one, suffer from "delusion" and "deception" on the parts of their advocates. Explain how "delusion" might be a cause of ballooning budgets in this project. How does "deception" affect the final project budget overruns?

Answers

Answer:

a.The project has been approved and it has been proved necessary.

b. They often choose the cheapest budget and do not forecast any problems  in to make the project more viable.

Explanation:

a.There's an extensive process to approve a project like this, since it has so many filters before being approved, canceling it would be saying these filters failed. These filters exist to prove that these projects are necessary and if they're necessary they need to be done, no matter the cost.

b. THe people in charge of setting these projects going often choose the cheapest options to make the projects viable, when doing so the cost will eventually rise and, when the government has already approved it they will continue to spend money on the project.

Consider a telephone call to London that currently would cost $5. If the real price of telephone calls does not change in the future, how much will it cost you to make a call to London in 50 years if the inflation rate is 5% (roughly its average over the past 30 years)? What if inflation is 10%.

Answers

Answer:

If inflation were 5%, the value of the call in 50 years would be $ 57.33; while if inflation were 10% the value of the call would be $ 586.95.

Explanation:

Given that a telephone call to London that currently would cost $ 5, to determine, if the real price of telephone calls does not change in the future, how much will it cost you to make a call to London in 50 years if the inflation rate is 5% and if inflation is 10%, the following calculations must be made:

5 x 1.05 ^ 50 = X

5 x 11.4674 = X

57.33 = X

5 x 1.1 ^ 50 = X

5 x 117.39 = X

586.95 = X

Therefore, if inflation were 5%, the value of the call in 50 years would be $ 57.33; while if inflation were 10% the value of the call would be $ 586.95.
