Carving Creations jointly produces wood chips and sawdust used in agriculture. The wood chips and sawdust are actually by-products of the company’s core operations, but Carving Creations accounts for them just like normally produced goods because of their large volumes. One jointly produced batch yields 3,000 cubic yards of wood chips and 10,000 cubic yards of sawdust, and the estimated cost per batch is $21,400. However, the joint production of each good is not equally weighted. Management at Carving Creations estimates that for the time it takes to produce 10 cubic yards of wood chips in the joint production process, only 2 cubic yards of sawdust are produced.

Given this information, allocate the joint costs of production to each product using the weighted average method.

Joint Product Allocation
Sawdust _____$
Wood chips _____
Totals _____ $

Answer:

Carving Creations

Joint Product Allocation

Sawdust _____$ 12,840 ($0.428 * 30,000)

Wood chips _____ $8,560 ($0.428 * 20,000)

Totals _____ $21,400

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Wood chips = 3,000 cubic yards

Sawdust = 10,000 cubic yards

Estimated batch cost = $21,400

Weight assigned to wood chips production = 10

Weight assigned to sawdust production = 2

Weighted Allocation of the joint costs:

Wood chips = 3,000 * 10 = 30,000

Sawdust = 10,000 * 2 = 20,000

Total weighted units = 50,000

Allocation rate based on weights = $21,400/50,000

= $0.428

Joint Product Allocation

Sawdust _____$ 12,840 ($0.428 * 30,000)

Wood chips _____ $8,560 ($0.428 * 20,000)

Totals _____ $21,400

Champion manufactures winter fleece jackets for sale in the United States. Demand for jackets during the season is normally distributed, with a mean of 20,000 and a standard deviation of 10,000. Each jacket sells for $60 and costs $30 to produce. Any leftover jackets at the end of the season are sold for $25 at the year-end clearance sale. Holding jackets until the year-end sale adds another $5 to their cost. A recent recruit has suggested shipping leftover jackets to South America for sale in the winter there rather than running a clearance. Each jacket will fetch a price of $35 in South America, and all jackets sent there are likely to sell. Shipping costs add additional $5 to the cost of any jacket sold in South America, along with the $5 for holding jackets till the end of the season.

Required:
a. Would you recommend the South American option? Support your decision with calculations.
b. How will the South American option affect production and profitability at Champion?
c. On average, how many jackets will Champion ship to South America each season? (Note: you have already calculated this value in order to get the expected profit for the South American option.

Alternative price indexes
Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator. The GDP deflator for this year is calculated by dividing the_____using______by the_____using_____and multiplying by 100. However, the CPI reflects only the prices of all goods and services.
Indicate whether each scenario will affect the GDP deflator or the CPI for the United States.

Tommy is from a small town and quit high school to get married. He and his wife have five kids, and his wife stays home with the children. Tommy is a hard worker and strives to provide for his family, although his skills are limited. Tommy has been a butcher for his entire career. He has been with his present company, a large retail grocer, for the past six years performing the same job. There are twelve people in the meat department, and each one specializes in cutting certain types of meat. Tommy's job is to cut ribeye steaks. Cutting ribeye steaks is very precise and requires holding and using a knife in the same way every day. This requirement has started to cause Tommy pain in his right hand. Although Tommy still likes his work, he is getting a little bored of the repetition and is bothered by the pain.

The quality of Tommy’s work has not suffered, but the store managers can tell that he is getting bored. What could they do to keep him better engaged?

a. Purchase special ergonomic mats to help with the pain associated with standing on the hard floor every day.
b. Motivate Tommy by giving him feedback about how skilled he is in cutting ribeye and explain that customers visit the store for his custom steaks.
c. Offer Tommy more money because he is so good at cutting meat.
d. Cross train the employees in the meat department, so beef cutters can learn how to cut pork and vice versa.
e. Administer a work personality quiz to Tommy to see if there is another area in the store where he could move to, such as the produce department.

Masterson, Inc., has 4.1 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $84, and the book value per share is $11. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $70 million, has a coupon rate of 5.1%, and sells for 98% of par. The second issue has a face value of $50 million, has a coupon rate of 5.60%, and sells for 108% of par. The first issue matures in 20 years, the second in 12 years. The most recent dividend was $3.95 and the dividend growth rate is 5 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 21 percent. What is the company’s WACC?

Every year, management and labor renegotiate a new employment contract by sending their proposals to an arbitrator, who chooses the best proposal (effectively giving one side or the other $3 million). Each side can choose to hire, or not hire, an expensive labor lawyer (at a cost of $300,000) who is effective at preparing the proposal in the best light. If neither hires a lawyer or if both hire lawyers, each side can expect to win about half the time. If only one side hires a lawyer, it can expect to win nine tenths, or 0.9, of the time.

The lease agreement specified quarterly payments of $6,500 beginning September 30, 2021, the beginning of the lease, and each quarter (December 31, March 31, and June 30) through June 30, 2024 (three-year lease term). The florist had the option to purchase the truck on September 29, 2023, for $13,000 when it was expected to have a residual value of $19,000. The estimated useful life of the truck is four years. Mid-South Auto Leasing’s quarterly interest rate for determining payments was 3% (approximately 12% annually). Mid-South paid $51,000 for the truck.

Required:
a. Calculate the amount of selling profit that Mid-South would recognize in this sales-type lease. (Be careful to note that, although payments occur on the last calendar day of each quarter, since the first payment was at the beginning of the lease, payments represent an annuity due.)
b. Prepare the appropriate entries for Anything Grows and Mid-South on September 30, 2021.
c. Prepare an amortization schedule(s) describing the pattern of interest expense for Anything Grows and interest revenue for Mid- South Auto Leasing over the lease term.
