Elfalan Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 51,000 units per month is as follows:
Direct materials $48.10
Direct labor $9.20
Variable manufacturing overhead $2.20
Fixed manufacturing overhead $19.50
Variable selling & administrative expense $4.00
Fixed selling & administrative expense $19.00
The normal selling price of the product is $108.10 per unit.
An order has been received from an overseas customer for 3,100 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $2.30 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.
Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.
Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas customer and accepting the special order would require cutting back on production of 1,250 units for regular customers.
The minimum acceptable price per unit for the special order is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

Last year Rennie Industries had sales of $270,000, assets of $175,000 (which equals total invested capital), a profit margin of 5.3%, and an equity multiplier of 1.2. The CFO believes that the company could reduce its assets by $51,000 without affecting either sales or costs. The firm finances using only debt and common equity. Had it reduced its assets by this amount, and had the debt/total invested capital ratio, sales, and costs remained constant, how much would the ROE have changed? Do not round your intermediate calculations. a. 3.03% b. 3.07% c. 4.04% d. 4.52% e. 4.08%

Answers

Answer:

c. 4.04%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine how much would the ROE have changed

First step is to Calculate last year Last year profit

Last year profit = $270,000 × 5.3%

Last year profit = $14,310.00

Second step is to calculate Last year equity

$175,000/Last year equity = 1.2

Last year equity = $175,000/1.2

Last year equity= $145,833.33

Third step is to calculate Last year ROE

Last year ROE = $14,310.00/$145,833.33

Last year ROE= 0.0981*100

Last year ROE= 9.81%

Fourth step is to Calculate New asset value

New asset value = $175,000 - $51,000

New asset value = $124,000

Fifth step is to calculate Equity after asset reduction

Equity after asset reduction = $124,000/1.2

Equity after asset reduction = $103,333.33

Sixth step is to calculate ROE after asset reduction

ROE after asset reduction = $14,310.00/$103,333.33

ROE after asset reduction =0.1385*100

ROE after asset reduction =13.85%

Now let calculate amount of change in ROE

Using this formula

Change in ROE = ROE after asset reduction - Last year ROE

Let plug in the formula

Change in ROE = 13.85% - 9.81%

Change in ROE = 4.04%

Therefore how much would the ROE have changed is 4.04%

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $24,000

Book Value = $28,000

Explanation:

Straight line method charges a fixed amount of depreciation for the period that the asset is in use in the business.

Depreciation Charge = (Cost - Salvage Value) ÷ Estimated Useful Life

therefore,

Depreciation Charge = ($52,000 - $4,000) ÷ 4

                                     = $12,000

we know that,

Accumulated depreciation = Sum of all depreciation to date

and

Book Value is the Costs less Accumulated depreciation

thus,

Balances for the Next 2 years will be as follows

Year 1

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $12,000

Book Value = $40,000

Year 2

Depreciation Expense = $12,000

Accumulated Depreciation = $24,000

Book Value = $28,000

The Finishing Department had 6,800 incomplete units in its beginning Work-in-Process Inventory which were 100% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. 18,600 units were received from the previous department. The ending Work-in-Process Inventory consisted of 3,800 units which were 50% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. The Finishing Department uses first-in, first-out (FIFO) process costing. How many units were started and completed during the period

Answers

Answer:

14,800 units

Explanation:

To understand units started and completed principle, ask yourself, "Out of the units Started during the year, how many units were Completed?"

Since we are using FIFO the units in Inventory will be worked on first followed by the units introduced in process during the year.

So this can be calculated out of units completed as follows :

Units started and completed = Units Started - Units in Ending Work in Process

therefore,

Units started and completed = 18,600 - 3,800 = 14,800 units

Conclusion :

Units started and completed during the period were 14,800 units.

Answer:

Price of share today = $23.17

Explanation:

The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected cash inflows discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity.

The cost of equity is 10% in this scenario

The price of the share will be determined as follows:

                                                                                  $

Present value of Dividend in yr 1 = 1.40× 1.1^(-1)=    1.27

Present value of Dividend  in yr 2 = 1.50 × 1.1^(-2)=1.24

Present value of share in yr 2 = 25× 1.1^(-2) =       20.66

Present value of total  cash inflow                         23.17

Price of share today = $23.17

Answers

Answer:

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $0.2 per direct labor dollar

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor, $30,000

Factory overhead applied $6,000.

To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

6,000= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate*30,000

6,000 / 30,000 = Estimated manufacturing overhead rate

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $0.2 per direct labor dollar

Madison Corporation's production cycle starts in the Processing Department. The following information is available for April: Units Work-in-process, April 1 (25% complete) 50,000 Total units in process during April 290,000 Work-in-process, April 30 (60% complete) 30,000 Materials are added at the beginning of the process in the Processing Department. What are the equivalent units of production for the month of April, assuming Madison uses the weighted-average method

Answers

Answer:

Equivalent units of production= 278,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Total units in process during April 290,000

Work-in-process, April 30 (60% complete) 30,000

The weighted average method blends the costs and units of the previous period with the costs and units of the current period.

To calculate the equivalent units, we need to use the following formula:

Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production

Equivalent units of production= (290,000 - 30,000) + 30,000*0.6

Equivalent units of production= 278,000

Answers

Answer:

the fixed overhead budget variance is $17,000 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed overhead budgeted variance is shown below:

= Budgeted overhead - actual overhead

= $355,740 - $372,740

The Buck Store is considering a project that will require additional inventory of $216,000 and will increase accounts payable by $181,000. Accounts receivable are currently $525,000 and are expected to increase by 9 percent if this project is accepted. What is the project's initial cash flow for net working capital

Answers

Answer:

$607,250 outflow

Explanation:

Net Working Capital is the amount of money needed to maintain operations on a day to day basis.

Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

where,

Current Assets are calculated as :

Inventory                                                        $216,000

Accounts Receivable ($525,000 x 1.09)   $575,250

Total                                                                $788,250

and

Current Liabilities = $181,000

therefore,

Net Working Capital = $788,250 - $181,000 = $607,250

Conclusion

The project's initial cash flow for net working capital is $607,250 outflow.

Since 1970, Super Rise, Inc., has provided maintenance services for elevators. On January 1, 2016, Super Rise obtains a contract to maintain an elevator in a 90-story building in New York City for 10 months and receives a fixed payment of $95,000.
The contract specifies that Super Rise will receive an additional $47,500 at the end of the 10 months if there is no unexpected delay, stoppage, or accident during the year.
Super Rise estimates variable consideration to be the most likely amount it will receive.
Required:
1. Assume that, because the building sees a constant flux of people throughout the day, Super Rise is allowed to access the elevators and related mechanical equipment only between 3am and 5am on any given day, which is insufficient to perform some of the more time-consuming repair work. As a result, Super Rise believes that unexpected delays are likely and that it will not earn the bonus. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on January 1. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, record "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
2. Assume instead that Super Rise knows at the inception of the contract that it will be given unlimited access to the elevators and related equipment each day, with the right to schedule repair sessions any time. When given these terms and conditions, Super Rise has never had any delays or accidents in the past. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on January 31 to record one month of revenue.(If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Record any necessary entry on January 31 to record one month of revenue
3. Assume the same facts as requirement 1. In addition assume that, on May 31, Super Rise determines that it does not need to spend more than two hours on any given day to operate the elevator safely because the client’s elevator is relatively new. Therefore, Super Rise believes that unexpected delays are very unlikely. Prepare the journal entry Super Rise would record on May 31 to recognize May revenue and any necessary revision in its estimated bonus receivable. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
Record any necessary entry on May 31 to recognize May revenue and any necessary revision in its estimated bonus receivable.

Consider two perfectly negatively correlated risky securities, A and B. Security A has an expected rate of return of 12% and a standard deviation of return of 17%. B has an expected rate of return of 9% and a standard deviation of return of 14%.

Required:
a. What are the weights of A and B in the global minimum variance portfolio respectively?
b. What is the rate of return on the risk-free portfolio that can be formed with the two securities ?

Answers

Answer:

A) Weight of Security A = 0.45

Weight of Security B = 0.55

B)Risk free rate = 10.35%

Explanation:

We are given;

A) Expected rate of return for Security A; ERR = 12%

Standard deviation of return for Security A; SD = 17%

Expected rate of return for Security B; ERR = 9%

Standard deviation of return for Security B; SD = 14%

Now, formula for weight of Security A is;

Weight of security A = SD of security B ÷ (SD of security B + SD of security A)

Weight of Security A = 14%/(14% + 17%)

Weight of Security A ≈ 0.45

Weight of Security B = 1 - weight of Security A

Weight of Security B = 1 - 0.45

Weight of Security B = 0.55

B) Formula for the risk free rate is;

Risk free rate = (weight of Security A × ERR of security A) + (weight of Security B × ERR of security B)

Risk free rate = (0.45 × 12%) + (0.55 × 9%)

Risk free rate = 10.35%

Agee Storage issued 33 million shares of its $1 par common stock at $21 per share several years ago. Last year, for the first time, Agee reacquired 1 million shares at $19 per share. Assuming that Agee retires shares it reacquires (restores their status to that of authorized but unissued shares), by what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline if it now reacquires 1 million shares at $24 per share?

Answers

Answer:

$23 million

Explanation:

Calculation to determine at what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline

First step is to calculate the Cash paid for the first repurchase

Cash paid for the first repurchase = 1 million * 19

Cash paid for the first repurchase = $19 million

Second step is to calculate the Value of first purchase

Value of first purchase = 1 million * 21

Value of first purchase = $21 million

Third step is to calculate the Benefit on first repurchase

Benefit on first repurchase = 21 million - 19 million

Benefit on first repurchase = $2 million

Fourth step is to calculate Cash paid for second repurchase

Cash paid for second repurchase = 1 million * 24

Cash paid for second repurchase = $24 million

Fifth step is to calculate the Value of second purchase = Reacquired shares * Common stock price

Value of second purchase = 1 million * 21

Value of second purchase = $21 million

Last step is to calculate the Decline in total paid-in capital using this formula

Decline in total paid-in capital= Benefit on first repurchase + Value of second purchase

Decline in total paid-in capital = 2 million + 21 million

Decline in total paid-in capital = $23 million

Therefore what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline is $23 million

Department A had no Work-in-Process at the beginning of the period, 4,400 units were completed during the period, 540 units were 50% completed at the end of the period, and the following manufacturing costs were debited to the departmental Work-in-Process account during the period: Direct materials (1,540 at $10) $ 15,400 Direct labor 32,173 Factory overhead 25,735 Assuming that all direct materials are added at the beginning of production and Department A uses weighted-average process costing, what is the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period

Answers

Answer:

the ending inventory is $8,748

Explanation:

The computation of the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period is shown below:

Materials is $10 per unit

And, the conversion cost is

= ($32,173 + $25,735) ÷ (4,400 units + 540 units ÷ 2)

= $57,908 ÷ 4,670

= $12.4

Now the ending inventory is

= 540 units × $10 per unit + 270 units × $12.4

= $8,748

Hence, the ending inventory is $8,748

Earley Corporation issued perpetual preferred stock with an 8% annual dividend. The stock currently yields 6%, and its par value is $100. Round your answers to the nearest cent. What is the stock's value

Answers

Answer:

Value of stock = $133.33

Explanation:

The value of a preferred stock is the present value of the constant dividend payable for the foreseeable future discounted at the required rate of return

Price = Constant dividend/ required return

The constant dividend = Dividend rate × par value= 8%*100= 8

Requited return - 6%

So the price of the stock would be

Price = 8/0.06=133.33

Value of stock = $133.33

The campaign manager for a doomed candidate is considering which states to visit during the last frenzied campaign week leading up to the nationwide election. Pennsylvania (P), Wisconsin (W), Florida (F), New York (Y), and North Carolina (C) are all aching for one last visit, but the candidate has only 80 hours and $250 million left in her campaign fund. A visit to Pennsylvania takes 10 hours and costs $15 million but earns 1% of the electorate. A visit to Wisconsin takes 15 hours and costs $20 million and earns 1.5%; a visit to Florida is only $8 million but takes 16 hours and earns 2%, and a visit to New York costs $25 million, requires 2 hours and earns 2% of the electorate. North Carolina requires 18 hours and $22 million per trip but earns 3% of the electorate. What is the objective function if the campaign manager wants to earn the highest electorate

Answers
