Park Co. is considering an investment that requires immediate payment of $27,215 and provides expected cash inflows of $8,400 annually for four years. Assume Park Co. requires a 8% return on its investments. 1-a. What is the net present value of this investment
Answer:
the net present value is $606.64
Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is shown below:
But before that the present value of annual cash inflows is to be determined i.e.
Present value = annual cash flows × PVIFA(8%,4years)
= $8,400 × 3.3121
= $27,821.64
Now
Net present value = Present value of cash flows - initial investment
= $27,821.64 - $27,215
= $606.64
Hence, the net present value is $606.64

Teal Company is constructing a building. Construction began on February 1 and was completed on December 31. Expenditures were $3,420,000 on March 1, $2,280,000 on June 1, and $5,700,000 on December 31. Teal Company borrowed $1,900,000 on March 1 on a 5-year, 10% note to help finance construction of the building. In addition, the company had outstanding all year a 12%, 5-year, $3,800,000 note payable and an 11%, 4-year, $6,650,000 note payable. Compute avoidable interest for Teal Company. Use the weighted-average interest rate for interest capitalization purposes
Answer:
$418,790
Explanation:
Computation for the avoidable interest for Teal Company using the weighted-average interest rate for interest capitalization purposes
First step is to calculate the Expenditure for the year
Expenditure for the year
Mar-01 $3,420,000*10/12=$2,850,000
Jun-01 $2,280,000 *7 12=$1,064,000
Dec-31 $5,700,000*0/ 12=$ -
Total $ 11,400,000 $3,914,000
Second step is to compute the Weighted Average rate of all debt
Weighted Average rate of all debt:-
$3,800,000*12%=$456,000
$6,650,000*11%=$731,500
Total $10,450,000 $1,187,500
Weighted Average rate of all debt=($1,187,500 / $10,450,000)
Weighted Average rate of all debt = 11.36%
Now let compute the avoidable interest
AVOIDABLE INTEREST
$3,914,000
Less:$1,900,000*10%=$190,000
Balance$ 2,014,000*11.36% =$228,790
($3,914,000-$1,900,000=$ 2,014,000)
Avoidable Interest =$418,790
($190,000+$228,790)
Therefore the avoidable interest for Teal Company using the weighted-average interest rate for interest capitalization purposes will be $418,790

Bulluck Corporation makes a product with the following standard costs: Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Direct materials 4.90 grams $ 2.40 per gram Direct labor 0.90 hours $ 25.00 per hour Variable overhead 0.90 hours $ 3.40 per hour The company reported the following results concerning this product in July. Actual output 4,400 units Raw materials used in production 12,770 grams Actual direct labor-hours 3,800 hours Purchases of raw materials 13,500 grams Actual price of raw materials purchased $ 2.60 per gram Actual direct labor rate $ 12.80 per hour Actual variable overhead rate $ 3.50 per hour The company applies variable overhead on the basis of direct labor-hours. The direct materials purchases variance is computed when the materials are purchased. The variable overhead efficiency variance for July is: Multiple Choice $560 U $544 U $560 F $544 F
Answer:
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $544 favorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Variable overhead 0.90 hours $ 3.40 per hour
Actual output 4,400 units
Actual direct labor-hours 3,800 hours
To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (3,960 - 3,800)*3.4
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $544 favorable
Standard quantity= 4,400*0.9= 3,960
A firm produces and sells two products, Plus and Max. The following information is available relating to setup costs (a part of factory overhead): Plus Max Units produced 200 16,000 Batch size (units) 10 400 Number of setups 20 40 Direct labor hours per unit 5 5 Total direct labor hours 1,000 80,000 Cost per setup$1,080 Total setup cost$64,800 Using number of setups as the activity base, the amount of setup cost allocated to each unit of product for Plus and Max, respectively is:Multiple Choice$21.60; $.54.$60.00; $60.00.$108.00; $2.70.$54.00; $27.00.$200.00; $16,000.00
Answer:
Apportioned set-up cost
Plus =$21,600
Max=$43,200
Explanation:
Activity-based costing is a form of absorption costing where overheads are charged to product using cost drivers.
Under this method, overheads are first analyzed and categorized by the activities responsible for them and then charged to product based on the amount of benefits enjoyed using cost drivers.
The cost driver in this scenario is the number of set-ups
Activity rate per driver is calculated as:
Activity overhead for the period / Total cost drivers for the period
So, we can apply this formula to the scenario above:
Set-up overhead= $64,800
Total set-ups for the period = 20 + 40 = 60
Overhead cost per set-up = $64,800/60=1,080
Set-up cost allocation:
Plus - 20 × 1,080=$21,600
Max- 40 × 1,080=$43,200
Apportioned set-up cost
Plus =$21,600
Max-=$43,200
Tolbotics Inc. is considering a three-year project that will require an initial investment of $44,000. If market demand is strong, Tolbotics Inc. thinks that the project will generate cash flows of $29,500 per year. However, if market demand is weak, the company believes that the project will generate cash flows of only $2,000 per year. The company thinks that there is a 50% chance that demand will be strong and a 50% chance that demand will be weak.
If the company uses a project cost of capital of 14%, what will be the expected net present value (NPV) of this project if the company is ignoring the timing option?
a. -$3,435
b. -$3,779
c. -$3,092
d. -$3,607
Answer:
Expected value NPV =$-,7434
Explanation:
The Expected Net present value (NPV) is the difference between the Present value (PV) of Expected value cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. A positive NPV implies a good and profitable investment project and a negative figure implies the opposite.
Expected value NPV = PV of expected value cash inflow - PV of cash outflow
Present value of cash inflow:
The expected cash in flows is the sum of the cash inflows multiplied by their respective probabilities. For Tolbotics it is calculated as follows:
Expected cash inflows=m (29,500× 0.5) + (2,000× 0.5)=15,750
NPV = 15,750× (1-1.14^(-3)/0.14) - 44,000=-7434.
Expected value NPV =$-7,434

Burbank Company owns the building occupied by its administrative office. The office building was reflected in the accounts at the end of last year as follows:
Cost when acquired …………………………………….…… $330,000
Accumulated depreciation (based on straight-line depreciation, an
estimated life of 50 years, and a $30,000 residual value) ………. 78,000
During January of this year, on the basis of a careful study, management decided that the total estimated useful life should be changed to 30 years (instead of 50) and the residual value reduced to $22,500 (from $30,000). The depreciation method will not change, i.e. they will keep using straight-line deprecation.
Required:
1. Compute the annual depreciation expense prior to the change in estimates.
2. Compute the annual depreciation expense after the change in estimates.
3. What will be the net effect of changing estimates on the balance sheet, net income, and cash flows for the year?
Answer:
Burbank Company
1. The annual depreciation expense prior to the change in estimates is:
= $6,000.
2. The annual depreciation expense after the change in estimates is:
= $10,250.
3. The net effect of the changing estimates on the balance sheet, net income, and cash flows for the year:
The balance sheet = the accumulated depreciation will increase to $88,250.
The net income will reduce by $4,250.
The cash flows will not be affected, as depreciation is not a cash flow item.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Cost of office building = $330,000
Accumulated depreciation = $78,000
Estimated useful life = 50 years
Estimated residual value = $30,000
Depreciable amount = $300,000
Annual depreciation expense (straight-line method) = $6,000 ($300,000/50)
Revised Estimates:
Cost of office building = $330,000
Accumulated depreciation = $78,000
Estimated useful life = 30
Residual value = $22,500
Depreciable amount = $307,500
Annual depreciation expense (straight-line method) = $10,250 ($307,500/30)

As a result of the hurricane, orange farms would be destroyed. there would be less orange to make orange juice. this would shift the supply curve for orange juice to the left. as a result, equilibrium price would rise and equilibrium quantity would fall
I am assuming that apple juice is a substitute for orange juice. A decrease in the price of apple juice would lead to an increase in the demand for apple juice and decrease the demand for orange juice. the demand curve for orange juice would shift inwards. Equilibrium price and quantity would fall
taking these two effects together, equilibrium quantity would fall. there would be an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price

Exercise 8-4A (Static) Determining sales and variable cost volume variances LO 8-3 Cherokee Manufacturing Company established the following standard price and cost data. Sales price $ 12.00 per unit Variable manufacturing cost $ 7.20 per unit Fixed manufacturing cost $ 3,600 total Fixed selling and administrative cost $ 1,200 total Cherokee planned to produce and sell 2,000 units. Actual production and sales amounted to 2,200 units. Required Determine the sales and variable cost volume variances. Classify the variances as favorable (F) or unfavorable (U). Determine the amount of fixed cost that will appear in the flexible budget. Determine the fixed cost per unit based on planned activity and the fixed cost per unit based on actual activity.
Answer:
Cherokee Manufacturing Company
a. Sales volume variance is:
= $2,400 F
b. Variable cost volume variance is:
= $1,440 U
c. Fixed cost in the flexible budget = $4,800
d. Fixed cost per unit:
1. Planned activity = $2.40
2. Actual activity = $2.18
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Standard price and cost data:
Sales price $ 12.00 per unit
Variable manufacturing cost $ 7.20 per unit
Fixed manufacturing cost $ 3,600 total
Fixed selling and administrative cost $ 1,200 total
Planned production and sales = 2,000 units
Actual production and sales = 2,200 units
Sales volume variance = Actual sales - Standard sales multiplied by Standard price
= 2,200 - 2,000 * $12
= 200 * $12
= $2,400 F
Variable cost volume = Actual production - Standard production multiplied by Standard Variable Cost
= 200 * $7.20
= $1,440 U
Flexible fixed costs:
Fixed manufacturing cost = $ 3,600 total
Fixed selling and administrative cost = $ 1,200 total
Total fixed costs = $4,800
Fixed cost per unit:
Planned activity = $2.40 ($4,800/2,000)
Actual activity = $2.18 ($4,800/2,200)
