Answers

Answer:

PROJECT B

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator

For project A,

Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000

cash flow in year 1 = 5,000

cash flow i year 2 - 4,000

cash flow in year 3 = 3,000

IRR = 10.65%

For project B,

Cash flow in year 0 = -10,000

cash flow in year 1 = 4,000

cash flow i year 2 - 3,000

cash flow in year 3 = 10,000

IRR = 26.37%

Project B would be ranked higher because it has a higher IRR

To find the IRR 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 IRR button and then press the compute button

Coronado, Inc. had net sales in 2017 of $1,493,700. At December 31, 2017, before adjusting entries, the balances in selected accounts were Accounts Receivable $329,800 debit, and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $4,060 credit. If Coronado estimates that 9% of its receivables will prove to be uncollectible. Prepare the December 31, 2017, journal entry to record bad debt expense.

Answers

Answer:

December 31,

DR Bad Debt Expense $25,622‬

CR Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $25,622‬

Explanation:

The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts helps provide a sort of cushion for the business by accounting for potential bad debts for the business so that if bad debts occur, they are taken from this account and not the Receivables account.

Coronado estimates that 9% of receivables will be uncollectible so;

= 9% * 329,800

= $29,682‬

However, $4,060 is already in the account so the new balance that should be brought into the account to ensure that it totals $29,682‬ is;

= 29,682‬ - 4,060

= $25,622‬

For this discussion, you are to pretend that you're on a team project that's running behind schedule. Let's say you and your project team are three months into an eight-month project and you realize that you're already 2.5 weeks behind schedule and 15% over budget. What would you do?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The discussion or focus is on PROJECT MANAGEMENT.

You are on a team project that is running behind schedule. You and your project team are 3 months into an 8-month project.

There is a deficiency in both time management and money management.

For the project to be 3 months old, out of 8 months, then it's already in the execution stage.

Being behind schedule by 2.5 weeks implies that you have spent 2.5 weeks extra, achieving what you ought to achieve without or before the extra time. Discuss with your project team and make them more active in delivering their tasks. Time is crucial. Time is money also.

You're 15% over budget, hence you've spent 15% more than you should. Check the vendors of items and tools used in the project. You might have to change them if their products are too costly. Ensure proper accounting also. Do not disburse funds without the consultation and approval of team members who are finance experts.

In all, not more than 2 days or thereabout should be used in making these adjustments because time and money are equally pertinent!

Answers

Answer:

Reversionary interest

Explanation:

If Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a reversionary interest.

A reversionary interest can be defined as a property law (deed) which states that when a property such as a land transfer is used on a clause; “for so long as” or “on condition that."

Hence, once the interest of the benefactor comes to an end, the property reverts back to its original owner (grantor). It also gives the grantor's next of kin, successor or heir the power or right to take the property back in the future if promises are broken or the agreement comes to an end.

This ultimately implies that, if a property stated in the deed is not used or used, for certain purposes.

In this scenario, Larry owns a reversionary interest because he gifts a land to the school district, but in the deed he stated "for so long as the land is used for a school."

Jan's Bakery is considering a merger with Tina's Cookies. Jan's total operating costs of producing services are $300,000 for a sales volume of $2 million. Tina's total operating costs of producing services are $75,000 for a sales volume of $600,000. If the two firms merge, calculate the total average cost for the merged firm assuming no synergies.

Answers

Answer:

Jan's Bakery and Tina Cookies

Total Average Cost for the merged firm

= ($300,000 + $75,000)/2

= $187,500

Explanation:

The total average cost for Jan's Bakery and Tina's Cookies is the average of their total operating costs.  This is obtained by adding $300,000 to $75,000 and then dividing by 2.

Though, in practical terms, the presence of some synergies will cut some of the operating costs off, especially such costs as rent, advertising, and some other administrative costs.  Some selling costs will also be eliminated when the merger goes through.

The manager of a gas station noticed that when prices in the convenience store of the gas station decreased, gas sales increased. This could possibly be because the convenience store products are

Answers

Answer:

usually complements to the gas sales

Explanation:

Complementary products are those that their demand increases with the increased demand of other products.

Complementary products are usually used together. For example tea and sugar are consumed together, so an increase in tea consumption should result in an increase in sugar consumption.

In this scenario when the price of the convenience store products falls, their demand will increase. If there is an increase in gas sales too it is logical to conclude that the convenience store goods are complements of gas sales.

Richards Corporation uses the weighted-average method of process costing. The following information is available for October in its Fabricating Department: Units: Beginning Inventory: 100,000 units, 80% complete as to materials and 25% complete as to conversion. Units started and completed: 290,000. Units completed and transferred out: 390,000. Ending Inventory: 40,000 units, 40% complete as to materials and 10% complete as to conversion. Costs: Costs in beginning Work in Process - Direct Materials: $57,200. Costs in beginning Work in Process - Conversion: $99,700. Costs incurred in October - Direct Materials: $828,520. Costs incurred in October - Conversion: $939,300. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of materials.

Answers

Answer:

$2.64 per units

Explanation:

The computation of the cost per equivalent unit of material is shown below:

Cost per equivalent unit is

= (Beginning conversion cost + cost incurred during October) ÷ (Total equivalent units)

= ($99,700 + $939,300) ÷ (390,000 units  + (40,000 units × 10%))

= $1,039,000 ÷ 394,000 units

= $2.64 per units

Mary just bought a 20-year bond with an 8% coupon rate (paid semi-annually) and $1000 par value for $1050. She is expecting an effective annual yield (EAY) of

Answers

Answer:

7.65%

Explanation:

Calculation for Mary effective annual yield (EAY)

The first step is to find the Semiannual coupon payment using this formula

Semiannual coupon payment=(Par value×Coupon rate percentage/2)

Let plug in the formula

Semiannual coupon payment =($1,000 × 8%) ÷2

Semiannual coupon payment= $80 ÷ 2 = $40

Second step is to find The total number of compounding period will be 20 years bond × The number of the compounding period er year which is 2

Hence,

The total number of compounding period will= 2 periods per year × 20 years = 40 periods.

Third step is to use the financial calculator which calculated the rate as 3.76% which means that:

Semiannual yield will be :3.76%

Therefore the Annual yield will be calculatedas = 3.76% ×2

Annual yield= 7.51%

The last step is to find the effective annual yield (EAY) using this formula

EAY = [1+(Quoted interest rate / m]m -1

Let plug in the formula

EAY = [1+(0.0751÷2)]2 -1

EAY= 7.65%.

Therefore the effective annual yield (EAY) will be 7.65%

Select a problem that a firm might have bringing out a new product or service and discuss how the firm could overcome that problem.

Answers

Explanation:

A potentially serious problem for a company is to launch a new product or service on the market without conducting marketing research to investigate the acceptance of its product to its target audience.

Marketing research is an essential tool for a company to collect relevant data and information about what the consumers' needs and desires are, what benefits they expect from a product or service, what features the product should have, the design, the price, and several other essential variables to help the company better understand the market and make the best decisions when launching a new product

Bendel Incorporated has an operating leverage of 7.3. If the company's sales volume increases by 3%, its net operating income should increase by about:

Answers

Answer:

21.9%

Explanation:

Given that

Operating leverage = 7.3

Increase in sales  = 3%

According to the given situation, the computation of net operating income is shown below:-

Increase in operating income  = Operating leverage × Increase in sales

= 7.3 × 3 %

= 21.9%

Therefore for computing the increase in operating income we simply applied the above formula.

Horizon Financial Inc. was organized on February 28. Projected selling and administrative expenses for each of the first three months of operations are as follows: March $173,900 April 163,500 May 148,800 Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes represent $37,000 of the estimated monthly expenses. The annual insurance premium was paid on February 28, and property taxes for the year will be paid in June. 70% of the remainder of the expenses are expected to be paid in the month in which they are incurred, with the balance to be paid in the following month. Required:Prepare a schedule of cash payments for selling and administrative expenses for March, April, and May. Horizon Financial Inc.

Answers

Answer:

Total Cash Payments are as follows:

For March = $95,830

For April = $129,620

For May = $116,210

Explanation:

Note: See the attached Excel file for the schedule of cash payments

The expenses paid in each month can be calculated as follows:

a. March Expenses

Paid in March = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for March - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for March) * Percentage of reminder paid = ($173,900 - $37,000) * 70% = $95,830

Paid in April = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for March - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for March) * Percentage of balance paid = ($173,900 - $37,000) * (100% - 70%) = $41,070

b. April Expenses

Paid in April = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for April - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for April) * Percentage of reminder paid = ($163,500 - $37,000) * 70% = $88,550

Paid in May = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for April - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for April) * Percentage of balance paid = ($173,900 - $37,000) * (100% - 70%) = $37,950

c. May Expenses

Paid in May = (Total projected selling and administrative expenses for May - Depreciation, insurance, and property taxes for May) * Percentage of reminder paid = ($148,800 - $37,000) * 70% = $78,260

: Imagine that Canada, the US, and Mexico decide to adopt a fixed exchange rate system. What would be the likely consequences of such a system for the flow of trade and investment between all three countries

Answers

Answer:

The exchange rate would benefit the U.S. and Canada more, that it would benefit Mexico.

This is because the Mexican currency: Mexican Peso, is devalued when compared to the U.S. Dollar and the Canadian Dollar. This means that Mexican exports are comparatively cheaper than American or Canadian exports, causing a great growth of Mexican manufacturing in recent decades.

In a fixed exchange rate system, Mexico would lose this competitive advantage. It would still have lower labor costs, but the amount of manufacturing that would move from the U.S. and Canada to Mexico would probably be less.

A consumer values a house at $525,000 and a producer values the same house at $485,000. If the transaction is completed at $510,000, what amount of tax will result in unconsummated transaction? a. A tax of $14,000 b. A tax of $15,000 c. A tax of $9,000 d. A tax of $18,000

Answers

Answer:

d. A tax of $18,000

Explanation:

If the price is higher than $525,000 which is his reservation price, the buyer will not buy the good

(1+t) > $525,000 / $510,000

1+t > 1.03

t > 0.03

t > 3%

3% of $510,000 = $15,300. So if the tax is greater than $15,300, the buyer will not buy the good . Hence, the answer is option (D) A tax of $18,000 as this tax is higher than $15,300 while other option are less than $15,300

Compute Hudson Co.'s break-even point in units and. 2. Compute Hudson Co.'s break-even point in sales dollars.

Answers

Answer:

1) Break-even point in units =8000  units

2) Break-even point (sales)  = $1,800,000  

Explanation:

Break-even point is the level of activity at which a firm must operate such that its total revenue will equal its total costs. At this point, the company makes no profit or loss because the total contribution exactly equals the total fixed costs.

Break even point in units is calculated using this formula:

Break even point in units = Total general fixed cost/ (selling price - Variable cost)

Break-even point in units = 360,000/(225- 180) = 8000  units

Break-even point in units =8000  units

2) Break-even point (sales) is computed as follows:

Break-even point (sales) =    Total general fixed cost/C/S ratio.

C/s ratio = (Selling price - variable cost)/Selling price ×  100

              = (225 - 180)/225 ×  100 = 20%

Break-even point (sales) = 360,000/20% = $1,800,000  

Break-even point (sales)  = $1,800,000  

1) Break-even point in units =8000  units

2) Break-even point (sales)  = $1,800,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total compound return over the 3 years is shown below:

= (1 + investment percentage earned in first year) × (1 +  investment percentage earned in second year)  × (1 +  investment percentage loss in second year)

= (1 + 0.35) × (1 + 0.40) × (1 - 0.37)

= 1.35 × 1.40 × 0.63

= 1.1907

= 19.07%
