a. What is Local's gross margin? (answer in %, Round to one decimal place.)b. What is Local's operating margin? (answer in %, Round to one decimal place.)c. What is Local's net profit margin? (answer in %, Round to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Gross profit Margin = 47.2%

Operating profit margin = 19.9%

Net Profit Margin = 12.93%

Explanation:

Requirement A:  Gross profit margin

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of sales

Gross Profit = 5.1m

Gross profit Margin = Gross profit/Sales x 100

Gross profit Margin = 5.1/10.8 x 100

Gross profit Margin = 47.2%

Requirement B: Operating profit margin

Operating profit margin = Operating Profit/ Sales x 100

Operating Profit = Gross Profit - selling,general and administrative expense -research and development - depriciation

Operating Profit = 5.1m - 0.55m - 1.2m - 1.2m

Operating Profit = 2.15m

Operating profit margin = 2.15m/10.8m x 100

Operating profit margin = 19.9%

Requirement C: Net profit Margin

Net Profit margin = Net profit / Sales x100

Net Profit = Operating profit - tax

Net Profit = 2.15m - (2.15m x 35%)

Net Profit = 2.15m - 0.7525m

Net Profit = 1.3975m

Net Profit Margin = 1.3975m/10.8m x 100

Net Profit Margin = 12.93%

Answers

Answer:

TVX Company

Stockholders Equity Section of the Balance Sheet, February 28

Common stock $632,400

Paid in capital in excess of par value, Common stock $449,040

Retained earnings  $513,560

Total Stockholders Equity $1,595,000

Workings

Common Stock

= Common Stock + Dividends Declared

= 620,000 + ( 2% * 62,000 shares * $10 par value)

= 620,000 + 12,400

= $632,400

Paid in capital in excess of par value, Common stock

Dividends were declared based on current market value of $31 not par value of $10 so the differnce will be catered for here.

= Balance + Dividends Declared

= 423,000 + (2% * 62,000 * $21 which is differnce between par value and market value)

= 423,000 + 26,040

= $449,040

Retained earnings

= Retained Earnings - Dividends distributed

= 552,000 - (2% * 62,000 * $31)

= 552,000 - $38,440

= $513,560

Victor Rumsfeld Inc.'s dividend policy is under review by its board. Its projected capital budget is $2,000,000, its target capital structure is 60% debt and 40% equity, and its forecasted net income is $600,000. If the company follows a residual dividend policy, what total dividends, if any, will it pay out? Select the correct answer. a. $7,560 b. $1,890 c. $0 d. $5,670 e. $3,780

Answers

Answer:

The residual dividend is -$200,000, therefore If the company follows a residual dividend policy the total dividends will be $0

Explanation:

In order to calculate the total dividends, if any, will it pay out, we would have to calculate first the residual dividend a follows:

residual dividend=forecasted net income-(percentage equity*capital budget)

According to the given data we have the following:

forecasted net income=$600,000

percentage equity=40%

capital budget=$2,000,000

Therefore, residual dividend=$600,000-(40%*$2,000,000)

residual dividend=-$200,000

The residual dividend is -$200,000, therefore If the company follows a residual dividend policy the total dividends will be $0

Answers

Answer:

1. Steel

2. A Mutual Fund

3. The number of shares of stock sold in a previous day

4. Capital Gains

Explanation:

1. Investment commodities are investments in raw materials or primary goods that are still to be processed such as Agricultural produce and precious metals. Steel falls under this category.

2. A Mutual Fund works by pooling the resources and monies of various people and then investing it in various companies as a single portfolio. This way even though your funds might be little, you can still be able to diversify investments and make a good return.

3. When stock is listed for sale on a particular day, its trading figures for the previous day are listed as well.

4. Capital gain is a way to gain a return when the value of your investment has increased. When you sell that asset at the new price which is higher than the price you bought it, you make a capital gain on the transaction. For instance, R. Taylor bought stock for $100 in 2005 and it is now selling at $900 and Taylor sells it, Taylor now has a capital gain of $800.

How much are you willing to pay to buy one share of this stock today if your desired rate of return is 8.0 percent

Answers

Answer:

The amount willing to pay to buy one share is $6.92.

Explanation:

The announcement by company to pay annual dividend = $0.10

2nd year divident amount = $0.20

3rd year divident amount = $0.30

4th year divident amount = $0.40

5th-year divident amount = $0.50

The increase in dividend = 2 percent.

The desired rate of return = 8%

Value after year 5 = (D5 × Growth rate) / (Required rate-Growth rate)

=(0.5 × 1.02) / (0.08-0.02)

=8.5

Therefore, the current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)

=0.1/1.08 + 0.2/1.08^2 + 0.3/1.08^3 + 0.4/1.08^4 + 0.5/1.08^5 + 8.5/1.08^5

=$6.92.

Harvey is planning to file a case against a petrochemical giant that has a plant in his town. The petrochemical plant is dumping toxic wastes into its surrounding areas. Harvey is mobilizing the residents of the town, all of whom have suffered from various health problems due to the activities of the plant. Which of the following would be of most help to Harvey and the other residents?
A. Affirmative defense
B. Class action
C. Demurrer
D. Directed verdict

Answers

Answer:

B. Class action

Explanation:

In this scenario, Harvey is planning to file a case against a petrochemical giant that has a plant in his town because the petrochemical plant is dumping toxic wastes into its surrounding areas. Sequel to this, Harvey is mobilizing the residents of the town, all of whom have suffered from various health problems due to the activities of the plant.

Hence, a class action would be of most help to Harvey and the other residents.

In Law, a class action is a type of lawsuit in which a collective group of people (plaintiffs) having similar injuries or suffering similar damages caused by a particular company's product or action sue the defendant on behalf of a larger group. This simply means that, the group of people (plaintiffs) have a common interest as a result of sharing similar actions from an event.

Hence, the larger group that is being represented by Harvey is referred to as the "class" in business law.

Additionally, it is required by law that the class attest to the fact that they were affected by the actions of the petrochemical plant (defendant).

Assume that on January 1, 2015, a parent purchases a subsidiary with a book value of stockholders’ equity of $1,000,000 for $1,500,000. To finance the purchase, the parent issues 50,000 shares of its $1 par common stock having a market value of $30 per share and exchanges those shares with the sub’s stockholders for all of the sub’s voting shares that they own. At the date of acquisition, the sub’s book values approximated fair values except for two items. PP&E was undervalued by $200,000 and the sub had developed a patent internally that the parent estimates had a fair value of $175,000. The expected useful life of the patent is 10 years and the PP&E has a remaining useful life of 20 years. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the first year after the acquisition, the sub reported sales of $1,500,000; COGS was $900,000 and operating expenses were $390,000. The sub also paid a dividend of $31,500 to the parent. Using the Equity Method to account for the business combination both at, and subsequent to, the acquisition, determine the allocation of the excess fair value and make the appropriate journal entries to record the acquisition and 2015 activity.

The computation of manufacturing overhead is shown below:-

We assume conversion cost = x

Conversion cost = Labor cost + manufacturing overhead

x = $58,500 + 0.55x

x = $58,500 ÷ 0.45

= $130,000

Now the manufacturing overhead is

= Conversion cost × maufacturing overhead percentage

= $130,000 × 55%

= $71,500

suppose that the manager of a firm operating in a perfectly competitive market average variable cost reaches its minimum value at

Answers

Complete Question:

Suppose that the manager of a firm operating in a perfectly competitive market has estimated the average variable cost function to be:

AVC = 4.0 - 0.0024Q + 0.000006Q^2             Fixed costs are $500.

Requirement:

Average variable cost reaches its minimum value at___ units of output, and the minimum value of average variable cost is $___

Answer:

Average variable cost reaches its minimum value at 200 units of output, and the minimum value of average variable cost is $3.76.

Explanation:

To find the Average Variable Cost we will have to calculate quantity and for that sake we will first of all find the point of intersection of AVC and MC to find the Quantity "Q".

So

AVC  * Quantity = Total Variable Cost  + Total Fixed Cost

Here

AVC = 4.0 - 0.0024Q + 0.000006Q^2

Fixed costs are $500

Total Variable Cost is TVC

Quantity is Q here

By putting values, we have:

(4.0 - 0.0024Q + 0.000006Q^2) * Q = TVC + 500

4Q - .0024Q^2 + .000006Q^3 = TVC + 500

By rearranging the above formula, we have:

TVC = 4Q - .0024Q^2 + .000006Q^3 - 500

By applying derivation rules, we have:

dTC/dQ = 4 - 0.0048Q + 0.000018Q^2

Now this equation is Marginal cost equation.

At the point of intersection of AVC and MC, both equations will equal to each other and thus we can find Q.

Mathematically,

4 - 0.0024Q + 0.000006Q^2 = 4 - .0048Q + .000018Q2

Cancelling 4 on both sides, and netting off the equation, we have:

0.0024Q = .000012Q2

1 = .000012Q2 / 0.0024Q

1 = 0.005Q

Q = 1/ 0.005 = 200 Units

By putting value of Q in AVC equation given above, we have:

"When organizing a meeting agenda, why is it a good idea to discuss old business before introducing new business?"

Answers

Answer:

c. It makes sense to complete discussion and reach decisions about old business before tackling new business.

Explanation:

For organizing a meeting agenda first we have to discuss for the old business as it gives the whole picture of the business i.e it is profitable or not that results in increase in sales of the company that reflected completed discussion.

Moreover, the organization also knows how to operates the day to day activities that are related to the functions of management

So it always it is better to make decisions for old business before tackling the new business

Perteet Corporation's relevant range of activity is 3,000 units to 7,000 units. When it produces and sells 5,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:
Average Cost per Unit
Direct materials $6.70
Direct labor $3.25
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60
Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.00
Fixed selling expense $0.70
Fixed administrative expense $0.40
Sales commissions $0.50
Variable administrative expense $0.55
If 4,000 units are produced, the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost is closest to:__________
a. $28,000
b. $14,800
c. $21,400
d. $18,100

Answers

Answer:

Total overhead cost= $21,400

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

When it produces and sells 5,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:

Variable manufacturing overhead $1.60

Fixed manufacturing overhead $3.00

First, we need to calculate the total fixed manufacturing overhead:

Fixed overhead= 3*5,000= $15,000

Now, we can calculate the total overhead cost for 4,000 units.

Total overhead cost= total variable cost + total fixed cost

Total overhead cost= 1.6*4,000 + 15,000

Total overhead cost= $21,400

A firm wishes to maintain an internal growth rate of 9 percent and a dividend payout ratio of 66 percent. The ratio of total assets to sales is constant at 1, and the profit margin is 8.1 percent. If the firm also wishes to maintain a constant debt-equity ratio, what must it be

Answers

Answer:

the constant debt-equity ratio is 2.580

Explanation:

Given:

dividend payout ratio of 66 percent= 0.66

Sustainable Growth rate of 9 percent = 0.09

profit margin is 8.1 percent= 0.081

total assets to sales is constant at 1

We need to calculate the Retention Ratio first,

which gives the percentage of a company's earnings that are not paid out in dividends but credited to retained earnings. It can be calculated using below expression,

Retention Ratio = 1 - Dividend pay-out ratio

Retention Ratio = 1 - 0.66 = 0.34

ROE i.e the return on equity which is a measure of the profitability of a business in relation to the equity can be calculated as;

Sustainable Growth rate = (ROE * Retention Ratio)/(1 - ROE*Retention Ratio)

0.09 = (ROE * 0.34/(1 - ROE*0.34)

0.09 (1 - 0.34ROE) = 0.34ROE

0.09 - 0.0306ROE = 0.34ROE

0.3094ROE = 0.09

ROE = 0.09/0.3094

ROE = 0.290 or 2.90%

debt-equity ratio can now be calculated as;

Return on Equity = Profit Margin×Total Assets to sales ratio×(1+D/E)

0.290 = 0.081*1*(1+D/E)

1 + D/E = 0.290/0.081

1 + D/E = 3.580

D/E = 3.580 - 1 = 2.580

Therefore, the constant debt-equity ratio is 2.580

g on january 1 playa company acquires 90 percent ownership in seaside corporation for 180,000 the fair value of noncontrolling interest what will be the amount of consolidated net assets that would be reported

Answers

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

On January 1, Playa Company acquires 90 percent ownership in Seaside Corporation for $180,000. The fair value of the noncontrolling interest at that time is determined to be $20,000. Seaside reports net assets with a book value of $200,000 and fair value of $200,000. Playa Company reports net assets with a book value of $480,000 and a fair value of $525,000 at that time, excluding its investment in Seaside. What will be the amount of consolidated net assets that would be reported immediately after the combination?

Answer:

$680,000

Explanation:

Since Playa Company owns 90% of Seaside Corporation, it is considered Seaside's parent company and it must include all of Seaside's assets when it presents its consolidated balance sheet.

Total net assets reported = $480,000 (Playa's net assets at book value) + $200,000 (Seaside's net assets) = $680,000

Net Income                                                       $358,000      $425,500

Preferred Dividends                                               $0                  $0

Total Stockholders' Equity Stockholders'    $4,380,000    $5,132,000

Equity attributable to Preferred Stock                   $0                  $0

Number of Common Shares Outstanding        294,464         195,168

earnings per share = (net income - preferred dividends) / average outstanding shares

net income 2019 = $425,500preferred dividends 2019 = $0average number of common stocks = (294,464 + 195,168) / 2 = 244,816

Answers

The manager of a canned-food processing plant has two labeling machine options. on the basis of a rate of return analysis with a marr of 20% per year, determine (a) which model is economically better, and (b) if the selection changes, provided both options have a 4-year life and all other estimates remain the same.

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

First, compare the present values (PV) of all the expenses of all the investments to make an investment decision.

Given the formula of PV = ((C1/(1+r)1) + ((C2/(1+r)2) + ((C3/(1+r)3) +…….+ ((Cn/(1+r)n) + present value of investment – present value of the salvage value

Where, Cn equals to the expense incurred in the nth period and r is the rate of interest per period.

Therefore, for Machine A, present value of the expenses is

= ((1600/(1+0.20)1) + ((1600/(1+0.20)2) + 15,000 – ((3000/(1+0.20)2)

= 1333.33 + 1111.11 + 15000 – 2083.33

= 15361.11

For Machine B, present value of the expenses is

= ((400/(1+0.20)1) + ((400/(1+0.20)2) + ((400/(1+0.20)3) + ((400/(1+0.20)4) + 25,000 - ((4000/(1+0.20)2)

= 333.33 + 277.77 + 25,000 – 2777.77

= 22833.33

Therefore, it is shown that, Machine A is the least cost alternative and should be selected.

Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annual coupon payments. Suppose a German company issues a bond with a par value of €1,000, 23 years to maturity, and a coupon rate of 3.8 percent paid annually. If the yield to maturity is 4.7 percent, what is the current price of the bond? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

Bond Price = 875.0948 euro rounded off to 875.09 euro

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 0.038 = 38 euro

Total periods (n)= 23

r or YTM = 0.047 or 4.7%

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 38 * [( 1 - (1+0.047)^-23) / 0.047]  +  1000 / (1+0.047)^23

Bond Price = 875.0948 euro rounded off to 875.09 euro
