Pickering Financial Management believes that the biotechnology industry is a good investment and is considering investing in one of two companies. However, one company, BrightWorid, Inc., uses the FIFO method of inventory, and another company, BioTech, Inc., uses LIFO. Because the companies use two different methods and because BioTech is a much larger company, it is difficult to compare their net incomes to see which is a better investment. The following information about the two companies is available from their annual reports:
BrightWorid, Inc.
2018 2017
Inventory $ 96,000 $ 80,000
Cost of goods sold. 1,144,000 913,000
Sales....... 1,760,000 1,660,000
Net income 197,000 190,000
BioTech, Inc. 2018 2017
Inventory (See Note), 344,000 $ 299,000
Cost of goods sold 3,864,000 4,224,000
Sales 7,360,000 7,040,000
Net income 830,000 730,000
Notes to the Financial Statement. If BioTech had used the FIFO method, inventory would have been $21.000 higher at the end of 2017 and $26,000 higher at the end of 2018.
To better compare the two companies, Pickering wants you to prepare the following analysis.
Showthe computation of BioTech's cost of goods sold in 2018 using the LIFO method.
Prepare summary journal entries for 2018 for BioTech's purchases of inventory (assume all purchases are on account), sales (assume all are on account), and cost of goods sold. A T- account has been set up for inventory. Post these transactions into the T-account. The company uses the perpetual inventory method.
Show the computation of BioTech's cost of goods sold for 2018 using the FIFO method.
Compute the gross profit percentage for 2018 for both BrightWorid and BioTech using FIFO figures for both.
Compute the inventory turnover for 2018 for both BrightWorid and BioTech using FIFO figures for both.

If the price of X now declines to $6, the budget line will Multiple Choice be unaffected. shift outward on the vertical axis. shift inward on the horizontal axis. shift outward on the horizontal axis.

Answers

Answer:

The budget line will shift outward on the horizontal axis.

Explanation:

One of the laws of the demand is that the lower the price of a good, the higher the quantity of that good that is purchased.

From the question, a decline in the price of X from $9 to $6, will lead to an increase in the quantity of X that is bought.

Since the price of Y still remains at $4, if the price of X now declines to $6, the budget line will shift outward on the horizontal axis.

Explanation:

FIFO

Assumes that the units to arrive first will be sold first. Therefore, the Cost of Goods Sold will be based on the earlier (old) prices.

Cost of Sales = 10,000 x $3.50 + 35,000 x $3.70 + 53,000 x $3.90 = $371,200

LIFO

Assumes that the units to arrive last will be sold first, Hence the Cost of Goods Sold will be based on the later (new) prices.

Cost of Sales = 25,000 x $4.20 + 60,000 x $3.90 + 15,000 x $3.70 = $394,500

If the par value of 15-year bond is $5,000 with coupon rate $5% but the market rate/discount rate is 5.5%, the value of the bond is more or less than $5,000? Why?

Answers

Answer: Less than $5,000

Explanation:

The Bond described above is a discount bond. Discount bonds are bonds that sell below their par value because the market rate for the bond is higher than the coupon rate.

This happens when investors believe a bond to be riskier than the company says and so attach a higher return to it than its coupon rate. As a result, the price of the bond will be less than the par value because the higher market rate will discount the bond cashflows more than the coupon rate would.

Calculate the current ratio and the acid-test ratio for Queen's Line. (Enter your answers in millions, not in dollars. For example, $5,500,000 should be entered as 5.5.)

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The calculation of the current ratio and the acid ratio is shown below;

The current ratio is

= Current assets ÷ current liabilities

= $960 ÷ $2,645

= 0.3629 times

The quick ratio is

= Quick assets ÷ current liabilities

Here quick assets is

= Current assets - inventory - other current assets

= $960 - $136 - $145

= $679

So, the quick rato or acid test ratio is

= $679 ÷ $2,645

= 0.2567 times

C. $149,536.52
D. $231,693.52

Answers

Answer:

D 231,692.52

Explanation:

got it right on edge21

Based on the interest rates given to the person who has filed for bankruptcy and the person who hasn't, the additional amount in total interest that the person with bankruptcy will pay is D. $231,693.52.

What would the person who declared bankruptcy pay?

The amount that they pay can be found as:

Loan amount = Amount x ( 1 - ( 1 + rate) ^ -number of periods) / rate

Rate is:                                                            Number of periods:

= 12% / 12                                                        = 30 x 12

= 1% per month                                               = 360 months

The amount paid monthly is:

150,000 = Amount x ( 1 - (1 + 1%) ⁻³⁶⁰) / 1%

150,000 = Amount x 97.218331079

Amount = 150,000 / 97.218331079

= $1,542.92

What would the person who has never declared bankruptcy pay?

They pay a 6% less than the person who has declared bankruptcy so they will pay:

= 12% - 6%

= 6%

Rate is therefore:

= 6% / 12

= 0.5%

Amount paid monthly is:

150,000 = Amount x ( 1 - (1 + 0.5%) ⁻³⁶⁰) / 0.5%

150,000 = Amount x 166.7916143923

Amount = 150,000 / 166.7916143923

= $899.33

What is the difference in interest?

= (Amount paid by person with previous bankruptcy - Person with no history of bankruptcy) x 360 months

= (1,542.92 - 899.33) x 360

= $231,693.52

Company A is a manufacturer with sales of $3,400,000 and a 60% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $1,600,000. Company B is a consulting firm with service revenues of $3,500,000 and a 25% contribution margin. Its fixed costs equal $410,000. Compute the degree of operating leverage (DOL) for each company. Which company benefits more from a 20% increase in sales.

Answers

Answer:

DOL of Company A= 4.63

DOL of Company B=1.88

Company A benefits more from a 20% increase in sales

Explanation:

The degree of operating leverage measures the volatility in the operating profit of a business as result of the proportion of fixed cost to its total costs.

The operating Leverage = Contribution margin/Operating income

Contribution = Contribution % × sales value

Operating income = Contribution - Fixed cost

Company A

Contribution margin= 60%× 3,400,000 = 2,040,000  

Operating income = 60%× 3,400,000 - 1,600,000= 440,000  

DOL =2,040,000 /440,000 = 4.634

DOL of Company A= 4.63

Company B

Contribution margin= 25%× 3,500,000=875000  

Operating income = 875,000 - 410,000 =465000  

DOL = 875,000 /465,000 × 100 =1.88

DOL=1.88

If both companies experience an increase of 20%, the corresponding increase in profit would be:

Company A= 4.63× 20= 92.6%

Company B = 1.88 × 20 = 37.6%

Company A benefits more

DOL of Company A= 4.63

DOL of Company B=1.88

Company A benefits more from a 20% increase in sales

Toyota manufactures in Japan most of the vehicles it sells in the United Kingdom. The base platform for the Toyota Tundra truck line is ¥1,650,000. The spot rate of the Japanese yen against the British pound has recently moved from ¥197/£ to ¥190/£. How does this change the price of the Tundra to Toyota's British subsidiary in British pounds?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the change in price is shown below:

Original import price

= 1,650,000 ÷ 197

= 8375.63

The new import price is

=  1,650,000 ÷ 190

= 8,684.21

Now the percentage change in price is

= (8,684.21 - 8375.63) ÷ 8375.63

= 3.68%

This would be equal to the percentage change in the Japanese yen as the price of the truck remains unchanged

Compute days' sales uncollected.

Answers

Answer:

2017 Days' Sales Uncollected 49.37 days

2016 Days' Sales Uncollected 49.10 days

Explanation:

Computation for days' sales uncollected

Using this formula

Days' Sales Uncollected=Average receivables / Credit sales x 365 days

Let plug in the formula

2017 Days' Sales Uncollected= $76,450 / $565,219 x 365

2017 Days' Sales Uncollected= 49.37 days

[($89,900+$63,000)/2=$76,450]

2016 Days' Sales Uncollected= $60,000 / $446,029 x 365 days

2016 Days' Sales Uncollected= 49.10 days

[($63,000+$57,000)/2=$60,000]

Therefore 2017 Days' Sales Uncollected will be 49.37 days and 2016 Days' Sales Uncollected will be 49.10 days

Simon Company's year-end balance sheets follow. At December 2017 2016 2015 Assets. To compute the days' sales uncollected, we need to calculate the average accounts receivable and divide it by the average daily sales.

Average Accounts Receivable:

2017:

(Beginning Accounts Receivable + Ending Accounts Receivable) / 2

= ($63,000 + $89,900) / 2

= $76,450

2016:

(Beginning Accounts Receivable + Ending Accounts Receivable) / 2

= ($57,000 + $63,000) / 2

= $60,000

Average Daily Sales:

2017: Net Sales / 365

= $565,219 / 365

= $1,547.15

2016: Net Sales / 365

= $446,029 / 365

= $1,221.53

Days Sales Uncollected:

2017: Average Accounts Receivable / Average Daily Sales

= $76,450 / $1,547.15

= 49.48 days

2016: Average Accounts Receivable / Average Daily Sales

= $60,000 / $1,221.53

= 49.12 days

Therefore, the days sales uncollected for Simon Company are approximately 49.48 days in 2017 and 49.12 days in 2016.

Ahmed Company purchases all merchandise on credit. It recently budgeted the following month-end accounts payable balances and merchandise inventory balances. Cash payments on accounts payable during each month are expected to be: May, $1,600,000; June, $1,490,000; July, $1,425,000; and August, $1,495,000.
Accounts Payable Merchandise Inventory
May 31 $150,000 $250,000
June 30 200,000 400,000
July 31 235,000 300,000
August 31 195,000 330,000
Use the available information to compute the budgeted amounts of (1) Merchandise purchases for June, July, and August (2) Cost of goods sold for June, July, and August.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The merchandise purchase can be determined by using the formula:

Purchase = Cash payments + Ending Accounts Payable - Beginning Accounts Payable

For June:

Purchase = $(1490000 + 200000 - 150000)

Purchase = $(1690000 -  150000)

Purchase = $1540000

For July:

Purchases: $(1425000+235000 - 200000)

Purchases =  $(1660000 - 200000)

Purchases = $1460000

For August:

Purchases: $(1495000 + 195000 - 235000)

Purchases: $(1690000 - 2235000)

Purchases: $1455000

The cost of goods sold = Beginning Inventory + Purchase - Ending inventory

For June:

Cost of goods sold= $(250000 + 1540000 - 400000)

Cost of goods sold= $(1790000 - 400000)

Cost of goods sold = $1390000

For July:

Cost of goods sold = $(400000 + 1460000 - 300000)

Cost of goods sold = $(1860000 -  300000)

Cost of goods sold = $1560000

For August:

Cost of good sold = $(300000+ 1455000 - 330000)

Cost of good sold = $(1755000 - 330000)

Cost ofgood sold = $1425000

Changes in Growth and Stock Valuation Consider a firm that had been priced using a 10 percent growth rate and a 13 percent required rate. The firm recently paid a $2.40 dividend. The firm has just announced that because of a new joint venture, it will likely grow at a 11 percent rate. How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage)

Answers

Answer:

Change in dollars $45.20

Change in percentage 51.36%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage)

First step is to calculate the Price before change

Price before change= ($2.40*1.10)/(.13 - .10)

Price before change = $2.64/0.03

Price before change = $88

Second step is to calculate Price after change

Price after change=($2.40*1.11)/(.13 - .11)

Price after change=$2.664/0.02

Price after change = $133.2

Now let calculate the in dollars and percentage

Change in dollars=$133.2 -$88

Change in dollars=$45.20

Change in percentage=$45.20/$88

Change in percentage=0.5136*100

Change in percentage=51.36%

Therefore How much should the stock price change (in dollars and percentage) will be :

Change in dollars $45.20

Change in percentage 51.36%

Meiji Isetan Corp. of Japan has two regional divisions with headquarters in Osaka and Yokohama. Selected data on the two divisions follow: Division Osaka Yokohama Sales $ 10,200,000 $ 32,000,000 Net operating income $ 816,000 $ 3,200,000 Average operating assets $ 2,550,000 $ 16,000,000 Required: 1. For each division, compute the return on investment (ROI) in terms of margin and turnover. 2. Assume that the company evaluates performance using residual income and that the minimum required rate of return for any division is 17%. Compute the residual income for each division. 3. Is Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income an indication that it is better managed?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

1. The return on investment for Osaka will be:

= (816000/10200000) × (10200000 × 2550000)

= 32%

The return on investment for Yokohama will be:

= (3200000/32000000) × (32000000/16000000)

= 20%

2. See attachment

3. Yokohama’s greater amount of residual income is not an indication that it is better managed. Since Yokohama Division is bigger than Osaka Division, it's expected that Yokohama will have a greater residual amount.

Sunland Company is unsure of whether to sell its product assembled or unassembled. The unit cost of the unassembled product is $24 and Sunland would sell it for $62. The cost to assemble the product is estimated at $26 per unit and the company believes the market would support a price of $87 on the assembled unit. What decision should Sunland make

Answers

Answer: Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit.

Explanation:

To solve the above question, we need to calculate the incremental profit or loss first. This will be:

= After assembling sales value - Unassembled unit sales value - Coat if further processing

= $87 - $62 - $26

= -$1

Since there is an incremental loss of $1, then the correct answer is "Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit".

The Crane Inc., a manufacturer of low-sugar, low-sodium, low-cholesterol TV dinners, would like to increase its market share in the Sunbelt. In order to do so, Crane has decided to locate a new factory in the Panama City area. Crane will either buy or lease a site depending upon which is more advantageous. The site location committee has narrowed down the available sites to the following three very similar buildings that will meet their needs.

Building A: Purchase for a cash price of $617,800, useful life 26 years.
Building B: Lease for 26 years with annual lease payments of $71,870 being made at the beginning of the year.
Building C: Purchase for $650,400 cash. This building is larger than needed; however, the excess space can be sublet for 26 years at a net annual rental of $6,980. Rental payments will be received at the end of each year. The Crane Inc. has no aversion to being a landlord.

In which building would you recommend that The Nash Inc. locate, assuming a 12% cost of funds?

Answers

Answer:

building b

Explanation:

Nash would buy the cheapest building

The present value of building 2 and 3 has to be determined

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Building b

cash flow each year from year 1 to 26 = $-71,870

I = 12%

PV = . 567461.08

Building c

Cash flow in year 0 =  $-650,400

cash flow each year from year 1 to 26 = $6,980

I = 12%

Pv = 595288.29

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute  

building b is the cheapest
