During lunch time, customers arrive at a postal office at a rate of lambda equals 36 per hour. The interarrival time of the arrival process can be approximated with an exponential distribution. Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of mu equals 45 per hour. The service time for the customers can also be approximated with an exponential distribution. For each of the following questions, show your work and use the right notation.

Required:
Determine the utilization factor.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the utilization factor is 4 ÷ 5

Explanation:

The computation of the utilization factor is shown below:

given that

Customer arrives at the rate of λ equivalent to the 36  per hour

And, Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of μ equivalent to the  45 per hour

λ = 36 / hour

μ = 45 / hour

Now utilization factor is

P = λ ÷ μ

= 36 ÷ 45

= 4 ÷ 5

Thus, the utilization factor is 4 ÷ 5

e. Adjusted the records to reflect the use of the cooktop. Purchased on January 1, Year 1, the cooktop has an expected useful life of five years and an estimated salvage value of $3,200. Use straight-line depreciation. The adjusting entry was made as of December 31, Year 1.

Required:
Record the above transactions in a horizontal statements model.

Answers

Answer:

Cash + Equipment - Accumulated depreciation = Common stock + Retained = $46,460

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the horizontal statements model.

In the attached excel file, we have:

Accumulated depreciation = (Cost of cooktop or equipment - Estimated salvage value) / Expected useful life = ($39,000 - $3,200) / 5 = $2,440

From the attached excel file, the accounting equation can be proved from the balances as follows:

Cash + Equipment - Accumulated depreciation = $33,500 + 15,400 - $2,440 = $46,460

Common stock + Retained = $39,000 + $7,460 = $46,460

Therefore, we have:

Cash + Equipment - Accumulated depreciation = Common stock + Retained = $46,460

2) INFLATION-INDEXED TREASURY BOND Assume that the U.S. economy experienced deflation during the year and that the consumer price index decreased by 1 percent in the first six months of the year and by 2 percent during the second six months of the year. If an investor had purchased inflation-indexed Treasury bonds with a par value of $10,000 and a coupon rate of 5 percent, how much would she have received in interest during the year

Answers

Answer:

She received $490.05 during the year.

Explanation:

The principal of the bond will decrease in cash of decrease in the consumer price index.

The principal can be calculated as follow

Principal Value = ( Face value x Percentage reduction in consumer price index )

For the First Six Months

Principal Value = ( $10,000 x ( 100% - 1%  ) = $9,900

For the Last Six Months

Principal Value = ( $9,900 x ( 100% - 2%  ) = $9,702

Now calculate the coupon payments using the following formula

Coupon payments = Principal value x Coupon rate x Time fraction

For the First Six Months

Coupon payments = $9,900 x 5% x 6/12 = $247.50

For the Last Six Months

Coupon payments = $9,702 x 5% x 6/12 = $242.55

Total Interest received = Interest received in First Six Months + Interest received in Last Six Months = $247.50 + $242.55 = $490.05

Suppose a firm has 35 million shares of common stock outstanding at a price of $15 per share. The firm also has 200,000 bonds outstanding with a current price of $905.4. The outstanding bonds have yield to maturity 9.4%. The firm's common stock beta is 1.5 and the corporate tax rate is 39%. The expected market return is 14% and the T-bill rate is 3%. What is the WACC for this firm

Answers

Answer:

16%

Explanation:

The computation of the WACC is given below:

But before that following calculation should be done

Cost of equity

= Risk free rate of return + beta × (market return - risk free rate)

= 3% + 1.5 × (14% - 3%)

= 19.5%

Market value of equity = 35 million shares ×$15 = $525 million

And, the market value of debt = 200,000 × $905.4 = $181.08 million

Now the WACC is

= cost of equity × weight of equity + cost of debt × (1 - tax rate) × weight of debt

= 19.5% × ($525 ÷ 525 + 181.08) + 9.4% × (1 - 0.39) × ($181.08 ÷  525 + 181.08)

= 19.5% ×0.744 + 5.734% × 0.256

= 15.975%

= 16%

ThingOne Company has the following information available for the past year. They use machine hours to allocate overhead. Actual total overhead$80,510 Actual fixed overhead$32,000 Actual machine hours11,000 Standard hours for the units produced10,600 Standard variable overhead rate$4.60 What is the variable overhead efficiency variance

Answers

Answer:

the variable overhead efficiency variance is $1,840 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the variable overhead efficiency variance is shown below:

= Standard variable overhead rate × (standard hours - actual hours)

= $4.60 × (10,600 - 11,000)

= $1,840 unfavorable

Hence, the variable overhead efficiency variance is $1,840 unfavorable

As the standard hours would be less than the actual hours so it would be unfavorable variance

An asset used in a four-year project falls in the five-year MACRS class for tax purposes. The asset has an acquisition cost of $6,020,000 and will be sold for $1,220,000 at the end of the project. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the aftertax salvage value of the asset

Answers

Answer:

The after-tax salvage value of the asset is:

= $793,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Asset acquisition cost = $6,020,000

Salvage value = $1,220,000

MACRS Depreciation Expenses = $4,800,000

Project useful life or project duration = 5 years

Tax rate = 35%

Tax expense = $427,000

After-tax salvage value = $793,000 ($1,220,000 - $427,000)

b) The salvage value of the project asset is the recovery or residual value after depreciation expenses have been recognized over the project asset's useful life.  Depreciation is an accounting method of spreading the cost of an asset over its useful life.  There are many depreciation methods, including straight-line, double-declining, unit-of-production, sum-of-the-years digits, etc.

Determine the predetermined shop overhead rate per direct labor hour. $fill in the blank 1 per direct labor hour

Answers

Answer:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $18 per direct labor hour

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the estimated overhead cost for the period:

Estimated overhead cost= Shop and repair equipment depreciation  + Shop supervisor salaries + Shop property taxes + Shop supplies

Estimated overhead cost= 91,000 + 250,000 + 40,000 + 15,000

Estimated overhead cost= $396,000

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

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 396,000 / (550,000/25)

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 396,000 / 22,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $18 per direct labor hour

A product sells for $210 per unit, and its variable costs per unit are $130. The fixed costs are $420,000. If the firm wants to earn $35,000 after tax income (assume a 30% tax rate), how many units must be sold

Answers

Answer:

5,688 units

Explanation:

Target sales = Target Profit + Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

where,

Contribution per unit = Sales - Variable Costs

                                   = $210 - $130 = $80

therefore,

Target sales = ($35,000 + $420,000)  ÷  $80 = 5,688 units

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Flutes= 2,000*2 = 4,000 hours

Clarinets= 1,500*3 = 4,500 hours

Oboes= 1,750*1.5 = 2,625 hours

Total direct labor hours = 11,125

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

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

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,948,125 / 11,125

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $265 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate to each product:

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

Flutes= 4,000* 265= 1,060,000

Clarinets= 4,500*265= 1,192,500

Oboes= 2,625*265= 695,625

Unitary:

Flutes= 265*2= 530

Clarinets= 265*3= 795

Oboes= 265*1.5= 397.5

A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that factory overhead costs would be $341,900 and direct labor hours would be 48,900. Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred were $307,800, and actual direct labor hours were 52,800. What is the predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

With regards to the above, the predetermined overhead rate is computed below.

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated factory overhead cost / Estimated direct labor hours

Given that;

Estimated factory overhead cost = $341,900

Estimated direct labor hours = 48,900

Therefore,

Predetermined overhead rate per direct labor hour

= $341,000 / 48,900

= $6.97 per direct labor hour

You purchased 100 shares of MegaCorp for $17 per share four months ago. The brokerage fee was 4% of the total dollar amount of the purchase. Today you sold the shares for $23.50 per share. Brokerage fees were 4% of the total sale value. If you are in the .28 marginal tax bracket, how much tax do you owe (rounded to the nearest dollar) on the capital gain

Answers

Answer: $136.64 Owed on Capital gain.

Explanation:

Base on the information given in the question, the tax owed on the capital gain will be calculated thus:

Total purchase cost = 100 × $17 + [(100 × $17) × 4%]

= $1700 + ($1700 × 0.04)

= $1700 + $68

= $1,768

We than calculate the net sale consideration which will be:

= 100 × $23.50 - [(100 × $23.50) × 4%]

= $2350 - ($2350 × 0.04)

= $2350 - $94

= $2,256

Then, the short term capital gain will be:

= $2,256 - $1,768

= $488

The tax on short term capital gain will be:

= $488 × 28%

= $488 × 0.28

= $136.64

Paul, a calendar year single taxpayer, has the following information for 2019 (not 2020): AGI State income taxes State sales tax Real estate taxes Gambling losses (gambling gains were $ 12,000) $ 175,000 13,500 3,000 18,900 6,800 Paul's allowable itemized deductions for 2019 are: a. $ 10,000 b. $ 16,800 C. $ 39,200 d. $ 42,200 e. None of these.

Answers

Answer:

C. $ 39,200

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what Paul's allowable itemized deductions for 2019 are

Using this formula

Itemized deduction = State income taxes + Real state taxes + Gambling losses

Let plug in the formula

Itemized deduction = $13,500 + $18,900+ $6,800

Itemized deduction =$39,200

Therefore Paul's allowable itemized deductions for 2019 are $39,200

The failure rate for each component of a 2-component series system is assumed to be one failure per 1,000 hours of operation, and the switch reliability of replacing a failed component with a spare one is 1.0. Given that there is a spare component, a. Calculate the reliability of the system for a period of 1,000 hours assuming no other failure is possible. b. Determine the approximate MTBF of the system. c. What is the system MTBF without the spare component

Answers

Answer:

a. The reliability of the system for a period of 1,000 hours, assuming no other failure is possible is:

= 99.9%.

b. The approximate MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) without the spare component is:

1,000 hours.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations;

Failure rate of each component of a 2-component series system = 1/1,000 = 0.001

Therefore, the reliability rate = 1 - 0.001 = 0.999 = 99.9%

The switch reliability of replacing a failed component with a spare one = 1.0

The system's reliability = Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) minus the Mean Time to Repair (MTTR)

= 1,000 - 1.0 = 999 hours out of 1,000

b)The equipment's Mean time between failures (MTBF) is the average time it takes the equipment or system to suffer a breakdown.  Engineers, vendors, and system analysts use the MTBF metric to measure an equipment's performance, safety, and design reliability.

Portia owns and manages a sporting apparel company. Consider the given average cost (AC), average variable cost (AVC), and marginal cost (MC) curves for track suits. All but the MC curve have been placed incorrectly. Portia knows that the minimum average cost for a track suit is $7 and the minimum of average variable cost is $5.

Required:
Draw the AC and AVC curves so that they are consistent with the marginal cost curve.

Answers

Answer:

AVC curve will be below the AC curve

Explanation:

As we know,

[tex]AC = AFC + AVC[/tex]

This means that Average cost is the sum of average fixed cost and Average variable cost. Thus it can be shown that AC curve will be above the AVC curve.

Also we know that MC curve is upward sloping.

Thus, the MC curve will cut the AVC curve first and it will be to the right of the point where the MC curve cuts the AC curve.

So the curve must look like,

Bodin Company budgets on an annual basis. The following beginning and ending inventory levels (in units) are plannned for the year 20x1. Five units of raw material are required to produce each unit of finished product. January 1 December 31 Raw material 42,000 49,000 Work in process 19,000 19,000 Finished goods 92,000 75,000 Required: 1. If Bodin Company plans to sell 476,000 units during the year, compute the number of units the firm would have to manufacture during the year. 2. If 508,000 finished units were to be manufactured by Bodin Company during the year, determine the amount of raw material to be purchased.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. The number of units to be manufactured during the year is

= Selling units + ending finished goods - opening finished goods

= 476,000 units +  75,000 units - 92,000 units

=  459,000 units

2. The raw material purchased amount is

= (508,000 × 5) + 49,000 - 42,000

= $2,547,000

The same would be relevant

Amber Company had $153,200 of net income in 2016 when the selling price per unit was $153, the variable costs per unit were $93, and the fixed costs were $574,100. Management expects per unit data and total fixed costs to remain the same in 2017. The president of Naylor Company is under pressure from stockholders to increase net income by $62,200 in 2017.
a) Compute the number of units sold in 2016.
b) Compute the number of units that would have to be sold in 2017 to reach the stockholders' desired profit level.
c) Assume that naylor company sells the same number of units in 2017 as it did in 2016. What would the selling price have to be in order to reacch the stockholders' desired profit level?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1) Number of unit sold in 2016 is  

As we know that

Total contribution margin is

= Fixed cost + Net income

= $153,200 + $574,100

= $727,300

And, the Contribution margin per unit is

= $153 - $93

= 60 per unit

So, the Number of unit sold in 2016 is

= $727,300 ÷ 60

= 12,122 Units

2) Number of unit sold is

= ($574,100 + $153,200 + $62,200) ÷ 60

= 13,158 Units

3) The selling price is  

Break even = (Fixed cost + Desired profit) ÷ Contribution margin

12,122 = ($574,100 + $153,200  + $622,00) ÷ (X - $93)

12,122X - $1,127,346 = $789,500

12,122X = $1,916,846

X(Selling price) = $1,916,846 ÷ 12122

= $158 per unit
