Snoblo, a manufacturer of snowblowers, sells four models. The base model, Reguplo, has demand that is normally distributed, with a mean of 10,000 and a stand deviation of 1,000. The three other models have additional features, and each has demand that is normally distributed, with a mean of 1,000 and a standard deviation of 700. Currently all four models are manufactured on the same line at a cost of $100 for Reguplo and $110 for each of the other three models. Reguplo sells for $200, whereas each of the other three models sells for $220. Any unsold blowers are sold at the end of the season for $80. Snoblo is considering the use of tailored sourcing by setting up two separate lines, one for Reguplo and one for the other three. Given that no changeovers will be required on the Reguplo line, the production cost of Reguplo is expected to decline to $90. The production cost of the other three products, however, will now increase to $120.

Required:
a. How will tailored sourcing affect the production and profits?
b. Is tailored sourcing more profitable for Snoblo? Why?

depreciation expense  8,750 debit

    acc depreciation- equip    8,750 credit

--to record depreciation on leased equipment Dec 31st--

Explanation:

This is an operating lease as the equipment returns to the firm at the end of the contract and it is below 75% of the useful life (2 years / 6 years = 33%)

amortization on the equipment:

(cost - salvage value ) / useful life

(105,000 - 0 )  / 6  = 17,500 per year

semiannual depreciation: 17,500 / 2 = 8,750

One-year Treasury securities yield 4.85%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 5.2%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities

Answers

Answer:

5.025%

Explanation:

When we assume that the pure expectations theory is correct, then we are assuming that there is no risk premium involved. The formula to determine the yield for the 2 year treasury security:

(1 + i)² = (1 + 4.85%) x (1 + 5.2%)

(1 + i)² = 1.0485 x 1.052

(1 + i)² = 1.103022

√(1 + i)² = √1.103022

1 + i = 1.050248542

i = 0.050248542 = 5.025%

Mathias Corporation manufactures and sells wire rakes. The rakes sell for $20 each. Information about the company's costs is as follows.

Variable manufacturing cost per unit $6
Variable selling and administrative cost per unit 2
Fixed manufacturing overhead per month $300,000
Fixed selling and administrative cost per month 600,000

Required:
a. Determine the company's monthly break-even point in units.
b. Determine the sales volume (in dollars) required for a monthly operating income of $1,200,000.
c. Compute the company’s margin of safety if its current monthly sales level is $2,500,000.
d. Estimate the amount by which monthly operating income will increase if the company anticipates a $100,000 increase in monthly sales volume.

Answers

Answer:

a. 75,000 units

b. $1,700,000

c. 0.40 or 40 %

d. $60,000

Explanation:

Break-even point is the level of activity where a firm neither makes a profit nor a loss.

Break-even point (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

Where,

Contribution per unit = Unit Selling Price  less Variable Costs per unit

                                   = $20 - $6 - $2

                                   = $12.00

Therefore,

Break-even point (units) = ($300,000 + $600,000) ÷ $12.00

                                        = 75,000 units

Sales (dollars) to reach target profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

Where,

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales

                                           = $12.00 ÷ $20.00

                                           = 0.60

Therefore,

Sales (dollars) to reach target profit = ($300,000 + $600,000 + 1,200,000) ÷ 0.60

                                                           = $1,700,000

Margin of Safety = (Sales level - Break-even Sales level) ÷ Sales level

                            = ($2,500,000 - $1,500,000) ÷ $2,500,000

                            = 0.40 or 40 %

Calculation of Incremental Monthly Operating Income                          

Incremental Sales                                                    $100,000

Less Incremental Variable Costs (5,000 × $8)      ($40.000)

Incremental Contribution                                         $60,000

Less Incremental Fixed Costs                                           $0

Incremental Operating Income                                $60,000

Assume that on January 1, 2012, a parent company acquired a 70% interest in a subsidiary's voting common stock. On the date of acquisition, the fair value of the subsidiary's net assets equaled their reported book values except for machinery and equipment, which had a fair value of $480,000 and a reported book value of $250,000. The machinery and equipment had a 5 year remaining useful life and no salvage value. The following are the highly summarized pre-consolidation income statements of the parent and subsidiary for the year ended December 31 , 2013:


Income Statement Parent Subsidiary
Revenues $2,160,000 $288,000
Equity income 60,200
Expenses 1440000 144,000
Net income $780,200 144,000

For the year ended December 31, 2013, what amounts will be reported for (1) consolidated net income and (2) net income attributable to the non-controlling interest, respectively, in the parent's consolidated financial statements?

Answers

Answer: 1. $818,000

2. Check attachment

Explanation:

1. The amounts that will be reported for consolidated net income will be $818,000.

(2) Note that for the net income attributable to the non-controlling interest, respectively, in the parent's consolidated financial statements was calculated as:

= ($144,000 - $46,000) × 30%

= $98,000 × 0.3

= $29400

Mcmurtry Corporation sells a product for $250 per unit. The product's current sales are 13,600 units and its break-even sales are 10,608 units. The margin of safety as a percentage of sales is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

22%

Explanation:

Margin of Safety is the amount by which sales can fall before making a loss.

Margin of Safety = Expected Sales - Break-even Sales ÷ Expected Sales

                           = (13,600 - 10,608) ÷ 13,600

                           = 0.22 or 22%

GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export

Net export = exports imports

When exports exceed import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.

Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:

services not rendered to oneself

Activities not reported to the government

illegal activities

sale or purchase of used products

sale or purchase of intermediate products

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Athleticus shoes produced in Vietnam would not be included because it wasn't produced in the US

b. the work done by the accountant would not be included in 2017 GDP because it wasn't concluded in 2017 but in 2018

c. The corn syrup is an intermediate good and it would not be included in GDP

On December 31, 2021, the end of the fiscal year, California Microtech Corporation completed the sale of its semiconductor business for $15 million. The semiconductor business segment qualifies as a component of the entity according to GAAP. The book value of the assets of the segment was $13 million. The loss from operations of the segment during 2021 was $4.8 million. Pretax income from continuing operations for the year totaled $7.8 million. The income tax rate is 25%.
Prepare the lower portion of the 2021 income statement beginning with income from continuing operations before income taxes. Ignore EPS disclosures. (Amounts to be deducted and negative amounts should be indicated with a minus sign. Enter your answers in whole dollars and not in millions.)

You are CEO of Rivet Networks, maker of ultra-high performance network cards for gaming computers, and you are considering whether to launch a new product. The product, the Killer X3000, will cost $900,000 to develop up front (year 0), and you expect revenues the first year of $800,000, growing to $1.5 million the second year, and then declining by 40% per year for the next 3 years before the product is fully obsolete. In years 1 through 5, you will have fixed costs associated with the product of $100,000 per year, and variable costs equal to 50% of revenues.

Answers

Answer:

F= (900,000)

F1= 300,000

F2 = 650,000

F3 = 350,000

F4 = 170,000

F5 = 62,000

NPV at 10% $327487

IRR 20.587%

Explanation:

F0 -900,000

        revenues     variable cost   fixed cost   net flow

F1  800,000 -400000  -100,000 = 300,000

F2  1,500,000 -750000  -100,000 =  650,000

F3  900000 -450000  -100,000 =  350,000

F4  540000 -270000  -100,000 =    170,000

F5  324000 -162000  -100,000 =     62,000

NPV at 10%:

For each cashflow, we apply the discount of a lump sum formula

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]

And add them together for the net present value

A diet is to contain at least 3640 mg vitamin C, 2190 mg Calcium, and 2170 calories every day. Two foods, a dairy-based meal and a vegan option are to fulfill these requirements. Each ounce of the dairy-based meal provides 40 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 10 calories. Each ounce of the vegan option provides 60 mg vitamin C, 30 mg Calcium, and 50 calories. If the dairy-based meal costs $0.21 per ounce and the vegan option costs $0.27 per ounce.

Required:
a. How many ounces of each food should be purchased to minimize costs?
b. What is that minimum cost (per day)?

Answers

Answer:

(A) 73 ounces of diary-based meal and 28.8 ounces of the vegan option.

(B) The minimum cost per day is [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106

Explanation:

First thing to note is that the dairy-based meal costs less than the vegan option. In otherwords, if you're to minimize cost, you should purchase as many ounces of dairy-based meal as possible. This is the first mindset or step.

What the diet should contain everyday:

3640mg - Vitamin C

2190mg - Calcium

2170 - Calories

DAIRY BASED:

(40 × 91 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (10 × 217 = 2170)

VEGAN OPTION:

(60 × 60.67 = 3640), (30 × 73 = 2190), (50 × 43.4 = 2170)

Getting 73 ounces of dairy-based meal, you have

(40 × 73), (30 × 73), (10 × 73) = 2920mg, 2190mg, 730 calories.

You have left 720mg of Vitamin C and 1440 calories to obtain from the Vegan Option.

(60 × 12 = 720), (30 × 0 = 0), (50 × 28.8 = 1440)

The highest quantity needed here is 28.8 ounces of calories from the vegan option, hence 28.8 ounces of the vegan meal should be purchased. There will be excesses of Vitamin C and Calcium but that is necessary in order to purchase the stipulated minimum amount of each nutrient.

The minimum cost per day will now be [73 × 0.21] + [28.8 × 0.27] = 15.33 + 7.776 = $23.106

how does the IoT and Big Data currently play into your job, your organization and the industry? Are these two things connected and if so, how?

Answers

Explanation:

The term IoT is an acronym for 'Internet of Things' which refers to a modern technology that allows certain physical objects or “things” as we may call it to connect to the internet.

While Big Data refers not just to large data, but to an innovative field of technology that specializes in analyzing very large (big) data sets.

Consider the education industry, by means of IoT, it is possible for school management to effectively track their student's academic progress in real-time.

IoT and Big Data connected in the sense that, as these physical things (objects) communicate over the internet, a mass amount of data ("Big Data") is been generated which could then be analyzed using specialized software. In other words, they are mutually beneficial.

A competitive firm maximizes profit by choosing a level of output where the world price is equal to the firm's

Answers

Answer: c. Marginal Cost

Explanation:

A Competitive firm operates in a market where they are price takers. This means that the price they charge is equal to both their average revenue and their Marginal Revenue.

P = MR = AR

Companies maximise profit at a point where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost because at this point, resources are being fully utilized.

If the Competitive firm's Price is the same as its Marginal Revenue this means that to maximise profits, the firm should choose an output level where the price is equal to the marginal cost.

In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .

Required:
a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?
b. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

Answers

Answer:

a. P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States; and also P = 20 and Q = 100 in France.

b. P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States; and P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.

Explanation:

Note: The part b of the requirement is not complete. The entire question is therefore represented with the complete pat b before answering the question as follows:

In both the United States and France, the demand for haircuts is given by QD=300−10P . However, in the United States, the supply is given by QS=−300+20P , while in France, the supply is given by QS=−33.33+6.67P .

Required:

a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

The explanation to the answers is now provided as follows:

a. What are the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

In economics, an equilibrium occurs at point where the quantities demanded is equal to the quantities supplied.

Let Q denotes equilibrium quantity and P denotes equilibrium price, the equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries can therefore be calculated as follows:

In the United States

QD =300 − 10P

QS= −300 + 20P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

300 - 10P = −300 + 20P

300 + 300 = 20P + 10P

600 = 30P

P = 600 / 30

P = 20

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 300 – 10(20)

Q = 300 – 200

Q = 100

Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 in the United States.

In France

QD = 300 − 10P

QS= −33.33 + 6.67P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

300 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P

300 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P

333.33 = 16.67P

P = 333.33 / 16.67

P = 20

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 300 – 10(20)

Q = 300 – 200

Q = 100

Therefore, P = 20 and Q = 100 also in France.

b. Suppose that the demand for haircuts in both countries increases by 100 units at each price, so that the new demand is QD = 400 - 10P. What are the new equilibrium prices and quantities of haircuts in the two countries?

In the United States

QD = 400 − 10P

QS= −300 + 20P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

400 - 10P = −300 + 20P

400 + 300 = 20P + 10P

700 = 30P

P = 700 / 30

P = 23.33

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 400 – 10(23.33)

Q = 400 – 233.30

Q = 166.70

Therefore, P = 23.33 and Q = 166.70 in the United States.

In France

QD = 400 − 10P

QS= −33.33 + 6.67P

Since at equilibrium, QD = QS, we can therefore solve for P by equating the two equations above as follows:

400 - 10P = −33.33 + 6.67P

400 + 33.33 = 6.67P + 10P

433.33 = 16.67P

P = 433.33 / 16.67

P = 25.99 = 26

To obtain equilibrium quantity, we substitute P = 20 into any QD and QS since at equilibrium QD = QS. Using QD, we have:

Q = 400 – 10(26)

Q = 400 – 260

Q = 140

Therefore, P = 26 and Q = 140 in France.

If overhead is applied using traditional costing based on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Explanation:

If overhead is applied using traditional costing based on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

For example:

Total estimated overhead= $150,000

Allocation base= direct labor hours

Estimated Total number of direct labor hours= 10,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 150,000/10,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $15 per direct labor hour

In, ​& Sons, a small​ environmental-testing firm, has a small environmental-testing firm, performed 11,400 radon tests for $260 each and 15,000 lead tests for $210 each. Because newer homes are being built with lead-free pipes, lead-testing volume is expected to decrease by 12% next year. However, awareness of radon-related health hazards is expected to result in a 5% increase in radon-test volume each year in the near future. Jim Hart feels that if he lowers his price for lead testing to $200 per test, he will have to face only a 4% decline in lead-test sales in 2018.

Required:
a. Prepare a 2018 sales budget for Hart & Sons assuming that Hart holds prices at 2017 levels.
b. Prepare a 2018 sales budget for Hart & Sons assuming that Hart lowers the price of a lead test to $200.
c. Should Hart lower the price of a lead test in 2018 if the company’s goal is to maximize sales revenue?
