Explanation:
A firm always has a competitive disadvantage when its return on invested capital is:_________
A. 2 percent or lower in a declining industry.
B. declining steadily over two or more years.
C. about the same as its closest competitor.
D. below the industry average.
Answer:
A firm always has a competitive disadvantage when its return on invested capital is:_________
D. below the industry average.
Explanation:
A firm's competitive disadvantage shows when the return on investment is below the industry average. For instance, let us assume that Niposte, Inc. operates in the paper milling industry and that its return on investment of 10% falls below the industry average of 15%, then one can conclude that Niposte, Inc. is not favored in this industry. The cause of such a situation for Niposte, Inc. may be that the ability of its management to turn revenue into profits for stockholders is hampered with excessive costs. This is because the return on investment is a profitability ratio that shows how Niposte, Inc. and its competitors are performing in terms of generating profit from revenue through efficient management of operating costs.
[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Hudson Co. reports the contribution margin income statement for 2017. HUDSON CO. Contribution Margin Income Statement For Year Ended December 31, 2017 Sales (11,300 units at $175 each) $ 1,977,500 Variable costs (11,300 units at $140 each) 1,582,000 Contribution margin $ 395,500 Fixed costs 315,000 Pretax income $ 80,500 Assume the company is considering investing in a new machine that will increase its fixed costs by $37,000 per year and decrease its variable costs by $8 per unit. Prepare a forecasted contribution margin income statement for 2018 assuming the company purchases this machine.
Answer:
Pretax income= $133,900
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $175
New unitary variable cost= $132
New fixed costs= 315,000 + 37,000= 352,000
Now, we can determine the new operating income:
Sales= 11,300*175= 1,977,500
Total variable cost= 11,300*132= (1,491,600)
Total contribution margin= 485,900
Fixed costs= (352,000)
Pretax income= 133,900

Exercise F The luggage department of Sampson Company has revenues of $1,000,000; variable expenses of $250,000; direct fixed costs of $500,000; and allocated, indirect fixed costs of $300,000 in an average year. If the company eliminates this department, what would be the effect on net income
Answer:
Decrease by $250,000
Explanation:
Calculation for what would be the effect on net income.
We would be using Differential Analysis method to find the effect on the net income
Differential Analysis
Continue with Luggage Department; Eliminate Luggage Department; Effect on Income
Sales
1,000,000 0 -1,000,000
Variable cost
-250,000 0 250,000
Direct fixed costs
-500,000 0 500,000
Indirect fixed costs
-300,000 -300,000 0
Net Income
-$50,000 -$300,000 -$250,000
Therefore in a situation where the luggage department is eliminated, the income would decrease by $250,000
On January 1, Beckman, Inc., acquires 60 percent of the outstanding stock of Calvin for $54,480. Calvin Co. has one recorded asset, a specialized production machine with a book value of $10,000 and no liabilities. The fair value of the machine is $78,000, and the remaining useful life is estimated to be 10 years. Any remaining excess fair value is attributable to an unrecorded process trade secret with an estimated future life of 4 years. Calvin’s total acquisition date fair value is $90,800.
At the end of the year, Calvin reports the following in its financial statements:
Revenues 65,550 Machine 13,590 Common stock 10,000
Expenses 29,250 Other assets 27,710 Retained earnings 31,300
Net income 36,300 Total assets 41,300 Total equity 41,300
Dividends paid 5,000
Required:
Determine the amounts that Beckman should report in its year-end consolidated financial statements for noncontrolling interest in subsidiary income, noncontrolling interest, Calvin’s machine (net of accumulated depreciation), and the process trade secret.
Answer:
Beckman noncontrolling interest in subsidiary income $10,520
Calvin Machine (net of accumulated depreciation) $71,200
Explanation:
To calculate noncontrolling interest in subsidiary's income;
Revenue $65,550
Expenses $39,250 (29,250 + $6,800 + $3,200)
Net Income $26,300
Noncontrolling percentage = 40%
NonControlling Income = $10,520
Depreciation of Machine = [tex]\frac{Fair value of Machine - Book value}{estimated useful life}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{78,000 - 10,000}{10 years}[/tex] = 6,800 per annum
Amortization of trade secrets = [tex]\frac{Fair Value Total - Machine value}{Useful life}[/tex]
Amortization of trade secrets = [tex]\frac{90,800 - 78,000}{4 years}[/tex]
= 3,200
The following cost behavior patterns describe anticipated manufacturing costs for 2013: raw material, $8.20/unit; direct labor, $11.20/unit; and manufacturing overhead, $386,400 + $9.20/unit. Required: If anticipated production for 2013 is 42,000 units, calculate the u
Answer:
Note: The missing part of the question is "using variable costing and absorption costing. Explain the difference"
Solution
According to variable costing, the unit cost based was
= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.20
= $28.6
According to absorption costing,
Total Manufacturing costs= Direct material + Direct labor + Overhead
= $8.20 + $11.20 + ($386,400/42,000 units) + $9.20
= $8.20 + $11.20 + $9.2 + $9.2
= $37.8
The difference between the variable costing and the absorption cost is because the product costing using variable costing method only includes variable costs.
Mary buys an annuity that promises to pay her $1,500 at the end of each of the next 20 years. The appropriate interest rate is 7.5%. What is the value of this 20-year annuity today?
Answer:
PV= $15,291.74
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Annual cash flow= $1,5000
Number of years= 20
Interest rate= 7.5%
To calculate the present value, first, we need to determine the future value using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual cash flow
FV= {1,500*[(1.075^20) - 1]} / 0.075
FV= $64,957.02
Now, we can calculate the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 64,957.02/(1.075^20)
PV= $15,291.74
Statfeld Company's income statement for the current month shows that the company sold 300,000 units of its product and earned a net operating income of $450,000, Management is very pleased with the result and believes the company's financial position is strong because sales would have to go down by 40% from the current level before losses would occur. Management further believes that if the company runs a new TV commercial at a cost of $50,000 per month, sales volume next month could grow by 20% from the current sales level without the need to lower the sales price.

There will be an increase in next month's net operating income from the current month of $40,000 .
Messaging systems range from semi-public systems such as standard text messaging on mobile phones, to private systems that are closed to anyone outside of invited members.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Messaging systems range from semi-public systems such as standard text messaging on mobile phones, to private systems that are closed to anyone outside of invited members.
A messaging system can be defined as an electronic device which enables users to send text messages to one or more users depending on the configuration and it ranges from semi-public systems to private systems.
In a semi-public messaging system, messages can be sent between users with little or no restriction to who can send or receive these messages. An example is sending short standard text on mobile phones.
On the other hand, a private messaging system is a type of system that denies access to individuals outside of the group, only invited members are able to send and receive messages.
A company uses the perpetual inventory system and recorded the following entry: Accounts Payable 2,500 Merchandise Inventory 50 Cash 2,450 This entry reflects a:
Answer:
The entry reflects a debit to the Accounts Payable and a credit to the Merchandise Inventory and Cash, signifying full settlement of debt with merchandise $50 and cash $2,450.
Explanation:
When Accounts Payable is debited, it means that it is being paid. In this case, there are two stated ways for the settlement. The supplier was paid $50 in goods and $2,450 in cash. While, the supplier was being owed the sum of $2,500, he agreed to accept merchandise at cost of $50 and the remainder in cash of $2,450. This entry also satisfies the accounting equation, keeping the two sides in balance, as Liabilities are reduced by $2,500 and Assets are reduced by the same amount.
Meredith, the General Manager at Gladfle Inc., is planning to use certain new strategies to control and reduce the health care benefit costs to her company. What should she include in her list of strategies?

1. Calculate ROI for 2020. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
2. Calculate ROE for 2020. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
3. Calculate working capital at December 31, 2020.
4. Calculate the current ratio at December 31, 2020. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
5. Calculate the acid-test ratio at December 31, 2020. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
1. 16.83%
2. 28.04%
3. $101,000
4. 1.97
5. 0.98
Explanation:
Return On Investment (ROI) = Net Profit After Tax / Total Assets × 100
= $53,000 / $ 315,000 × 100
= 16.825 or 16.83%
Return On Equity (ROE) =Net Profit After Tax / Total Shareholders Funds × 100
= $53,000 / $ 189,000 × 100
= 28.0423 or 28.04 %
Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
= $ 205,000 - $ 104,000
= $101,000
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
= $ 205,000 / $ 104,000
= 1.9712 or 1.97
Acid Test Ratio = (Current Assets - Inventory) / Current Liabilities
= ($ 205,000 - $ 103,000) / $ 104,000
= 0.98077 or 0.98

Fortune Enterprises is an all-equity firm that is considering issuing $13.5 million of perpetual debt. The interest rate is 10%. The firm will use the proceeds of the bond sale to repurchase equity. Fortune distributes all earnings available to stockholders immediately as dividends. The firm will generate $3 million of earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) every year into perpetuity. Fortune is subject to a corporate tax rate of 40%. Suppose the personal tax rate on interest income is 55%, and the personal tax rate on equity income is 20%.
What is the annual after-tax cash flow to debt holders under each plan?
a. Debt holders get $0 mil. under the unlevered plan vs. 1.2 mil. under the levered plan
b. Debt holders get $1.2 mil. under the unlevered plan vs. 0.66 mil. under the levered plan
c. Debt holders get $0 mil. under the unlevered plan vs. 0.66 mil. under the levered plan
d. Debt holders get $0 mil. under the unlevered plan vs. 0.6075 mil. under the levered plan
Answer:
d. Debt holders get $0 mil. under the unlevered plan vs. 0.6075 mil. under the levered plan
Explanation:
interests paid to debt holders = $13,500,000 x 10% = $1,350,000
generally, interest revenue is taxed as ordinary revenue = corporate income tax rate (if debt holder is a business) or personal income tax (if debt holder is an individual).
under the first plan, debt holders get nothing because there is no outstanding debt since the company is an all equity firm.
under the second plan, if the personal tax rate on interest income is 55%, which is really high, the debt holders will earn $1,350,000 x (1 - 55%) = $607,500
what is the annual percentage yield(APY) for money at an annual rate of (a)4.57% monthly (b)4.58% compunded quartelty
Answer:
a)Annual rate of return = 4.67%
(b)Annual rate of return = 4.66%
Explanation:
Annul rate of return where compounding is done more frequenting could be worked out as follows:
Annual rate of return = (1+r)^n - 1
r - rate of return per period
n- number of periods in a year
a) Monthly rate of 4.57%
r- monthly rate = 4.57%/12 = 0.38% per month
n- 12 months
Annual rate of return = (1+ 0.003808)^12 - 1 × 100 = 4.67%
Annual rate of return = 4.67%
b) 4.58% compounded quarterly
r- quarterly rate = 4.58%/4 = 1.145 %
n- 4 quarters in a year
Annual rate of return = (1+0.01145)^4 - 1 × 100= 4.66%
a)4.57% monthly
Annual rate of return = 4.67%
(b)4.58% compounded quarterly
Annual rate of return = 4.66%

Starset Machine Shop is considering a 4-year project to improve its production efficiency. Buying a new machine press for $425,000 is estimated to result in $169,000 in annual pretax cost savings. The press falls in the 5-year MACRS class, and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of $69,000. The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of $28,000, along with an additional $3,500 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. The shop’s tax rate is 23 percent and its discount rate is 10 percent.
1. Calculate the NPV of this project.
2. Should the company buy and install the machine press?
A. No.
B. Yes.
Answer:
96,287
Explanation:
Cost of Machine $425,000
5 years MACRS rate is
Year 1 - 425,000 * 20% = 85,000
Year 2 - 425,000 * 32% = 136,000
Year 3 - 425,000 * 19.20% = 81,600
Year 4 - 425,000 * 11.52% = 48,960
Total depreciation in 4 years = 351,560
New Book Value of asset = 73,440
Salvage value at the end of 4 years = 69,000
Gain on disposal = 4,440
The NPV can be calculated based on tax savings
169000 for 4 years using annuity at 23% rate.
The NPV of the project is;
-425,000 + 251,787 + 169,000 +3,500 + 28,000 + 69000
Net Present Value = 96,287

Explanation:
A bridge on a prominent public roadway in the city of Springfield, Ohio, was deteriorating and in need of repair. The city posted notices seeking proposals for an artistic bridge design and reconstruction. Bridges by Madison LLC, owned and managed by Madison Mason and his wife, May Mason, decided to submit a bid for a decorative concrete project that incorporated artistic metalwork. They contacted Pablo Hand, a local sculptor who specialized in large-scale metal designs, to help them design the bridge. The city selected their bridge design and awarded them the contract for a commission of $184,000. Bridges by Madison and Hand then entered into an agreement to work together on the bridge project. Bridges by Madison agreed to install and pay for concrete and structural work, and Hand agreed to install the metalwork at his expense. They agreed that overall profits would be split, with 25 percent to Hand and 75 percent going to Bridges by Madison. Hand designed numerous metal pig sculptures that were incorporated into colorful decorative concrete forms designed by May Mason, while Madison Mason performed the structural engineering. The group worked together successfully until the completion of the project. Suppose Hand had entered into an agreement to rent space in a warehouse that was close to the bridge so that he could work on his sculptures near the location at which they would eventually be installed. He entered into the contract without the knowledge or consent of Bridges by Madison. In this situation, would a court be likely to hold that Bridges by Madison was bound by the contract that Hand entered? Help please here is the multiple choices
Answer:
Bridges by Madison and Hand
Agreement by Hand for a Warehouse:
1. Yes - when they agreed to work together, this implied that they would agree to be liable for each other's contracts.
Explanation:
This is especially as far as this joint project is concerned. Since the purpose of the warehouse was to further and fulfill the project, the agreement entered into by hand for a warehouse affects Bridges by Madison.
In a joint venture, every aspect of the project's lifetime is shared: shared profits, shared losses, shared rewards, shared risks, shared obligations and responsibilities, shared rights and privileges until the end of the project, which also ends the joint venture, unless there is a binding agreement to the contrary. In such a case, Hand would not have been a joint-venturer but a sub-contractor.
1. A small-scale businessman deposits money at the beginning of each year into his savings account, depending on the level of the business’ returns. He deposits $1000 in the first year, $3000 in the second year, $5000 in the third and $7000 in the fourth year and annual interest rate of 7%. What is the value of the investment at the time of his first deposit?
Answer:
The value of the investment at the time of his first deposit is $13,855.
Explanation:
The Value of the Investment at the time of his first deposit is its Net Present Value.
Calculation of the Net Present Value of this Investment is as follows ;
Hint : Find the Present Value of individual deposits and sum them up
PV = FV / (1 + r) ^n
Year 0 = $1000 / (1.07)^0
= $1,000
Year 1 = $3000 / (1.07)^1
= $2,804
Year 2 = $5000 / (1.07)^2
= $4,367
Year 2 = $7000 / (1.07)^3
= $5,714
Net Present Value = $1,000 + $2,804 + $4,367 + $5,714
= $13,855

Question:
Exodus Limousine Company has $1,000 par value bonds outstanding at 15 percent interest. The bonds will mature in 30 years. Use Appendix B and Appendix D for an approximate answer but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods. Compute the current price of the bonds if the percent yield to maturity is 10%
Note the tutor added 10% as the yield
Answer:
Price of bond= $1,471.35
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of bond Exodus Limousine Company can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
PV = A × (1+r)^(-n)/r
A-annul interest payment:
= 15% × 1,000 = 150
r-Annual yield = 10%
n-Maturity period = 30
PV of interest payment:
=150× (1- (1+0.1)^(-30)/0.1= 1,414.037
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 1000 × (1.1)^(-30) = 57.308
Step 3
Price of bond
=1,414.037 + 57.308 = 1,471.345
Price of bond= $1,471.345
