The average price of a gallon of gas in 2015 dropped $0.94 (28 percent) from $3.34 in 2014 (to $2.40 in 2015). Let’s see whether these changes are reflected in the income statement of Insignia Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2015 (amounts in billions).
2015 2014
Revenues $225 $242
Cost of Purchased Crude Oil and Products 119 127
Other Operating Costs 59 52
Income before Income Tax Expense 47 63
Required:
a. Compute the gross profit percentage for each year. Assuming that the change from 2014 to 2015 is the beginning of a sustained trend, is Insignia likely to earn more or less gross profit from each dollar of sales in 2016?
b. Compute the net profit margin for each year.
Answers
Answer:
Note: See missing wordings in attached picture below
a. 2015
Gross profit percentage = [Total revenue - Cost of crude oil and products] / Total revenue
Gross profit percentage = [$225 - $119] / $225
Gross profit percentage = $106 / $225
Gross profit percentage = 0.47111111
Gross profit percentage = 47.11%
2014
Gross profit percentage = [Total revenue - Cost of crude oil and products] / Total revenue
Gross profit percentage = [$242 - $127] / $242
Gross profit percentage = $115 / $242
Gross profit percentage = 0.475206612
Gross profit percentage = 47.52%
Conclusion: Insignia Corporation are likely to earn less gross profit from each dollar of sales in 2016 because Gross profit percentage decreased from 2014 to 2015.
b. 2015
Net profit margin = Net income / Total revenue
Net profit margin = $26/$225
Net profit margin = 0.1155555
Net profit margin = 11.56%
2014
Net profit margin = Net income / Total revenue
Net profit margin = $37/$242
Net profit margin = 0.152893
Net profit margin = 15.29%

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".

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
Assume initially that the price of X (the quantity of which is measured on the horizontal axis) is $9 and the price of Y (the quantity of which is measured on the vertical axis) is $4. 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.
Hugo Inc., a calendar year taxpayer, sold two operating assets this year. The first sale generated a $38,700 Section 1231 gain, and the second sale generated a $59,400 Section 1231 loss. As a result of these sales, Hugo should recognize: Multiple Choice $20,700 ordinary loss $38,700 Section 1231 gain treated as capital gain and $59,400 ordinary loss $20,700 capital loss None of these choices are correct
Answers
Answer:
$20,700 ordinary loss
Explanation:
Based on the information given if the first Operating assets generated a gain of the amount of $38,700 while the second assets generated a loss of the amount of $59,400 after been sold out which indicate or means that Hugo should recognize the amount of $20,700 ORDINARY LOSS which is calculated as :
Ordinary loss =-$59,400+$38,700
Ordinary loss =-$20,700
Therefore As a result of these sales, Hugo should recognize:$20,700 ORDINARY LOSS
ect the degree of leverage that completes the following sentence. Thedegree of operating leverage (DOL) is the percentage change in EPS that results from a given percentage change in sales, and it equals the product of the degrees of operating and financial leverage. Expert Analysts Resources (EAR) has provided you with the following information about three companies you are currently evaluating: Praxis Corp. Three Waters Co. Axis Chemical Co. Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) 2.0 3.0 3.0 Degree of Financial Leverage (DFL) 6.5 4.0 3.5 According to this information, which company would be considered the riskiest
Answers
Answer: Praxis Corp
Explanation:
To know the company that would be considered the riskiest, we've to calculate the degree of total leverage for each firm and this will be:
Praxis Corp:
Degree of total leverage = Degree of operating leverage × Degree of financial leverage
= 2.0 × 6.5
= 13.0
Three Waters Co.
Degree of total leverage = Degree of operating leverage × Degree of financial leverage
= 3.0 × 4.0
= 12.0
Axis Chemical Co.
Degree of total leverage = Degree of operating leverage × Degree of financial leverage
= 3.0 × 3.5
= 10.5
Based on the calculation, since the degree of total leverage for Praxis Corp is the highest, it simply means that it's the riskiest.
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.
During 2020, Vaughn Furniture Company purchases a carload of wicker chairs. The manufacturer sells the chairs to Vaughn for a lump sum of $131,670 because it is discontinuing manufacturing operations and wishes to dispose of its entire stock. Three types of chairs are included in the carload. The three types and the estimated selling price for each are listed below.
Type No. of Chairs Estimated Selling
Price Each
Lounge chairs 880 $90
Armchairs 660 80
Straight chairs 1,540 50
During 2020, Sarasota sells 440 lounge chairs, 220 armchairs, and 264 straight chairs.
What is the amount of gross profit realized during 2020? What is the amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs on December 31, 2020?
Answers
Answer:Gross profit realized during 2020 =$30,899
amount of inventory of unsold straight chairs on December 31, 2020 =$63,800
Explanation:
A)Vaughn Furniture Company purchases a carload of wicker chairs at a cost of a lump sum of $131,670 in 2020
Now the total number of chairs purchased per type is;
Lounge chairs 880
Armchairs 660
Straight chairs 1,540
Total = 3,080 chairs purchased
Also, Vaughn sells
440 Lounge chairs at $90 each = 440 x 90=$39,600
220 Armchairs at $80 each= 220 x 80 =$ 17600
264 Straight chairs at $50 each = 264 x 50 =$13,200
Total selling price of 924 chairs =$39,600+$ 17600+$13,200 =$70,400
Now , if 3,080 chairs can be purchased for a-lump sum amount of $131,670
924 chairs can be puchased in a lump sum of (924 x 131,670) /3080
=$39,501
Remember that the Selling price for 924 chairs =$70,400
Gross profit realized during 2020 = $70,400 -$39,501=$30,899
b).
Estimated Selling Price value for straight chair =$50
Straight chairs remaining= 1540-264=1276
1276 at $50 each = 1276 X 50 =$63,800

Net Income (Loss) $183,456 $166,680
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

Explanation:

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

You purchased five August 13 futures contracts on soybeans at a price quote of 1056′6. Each contract is for 5,000 bushels with the price quoted in cents and 1/8 ths of a cent per bushel. Assume the contract price is 1061′4 when you close out your contract six weeks from now. What will be your total profit or loss on this investment? A) $6,480.75 B) $1,187.50 C) $950.25 D) $24,000.00 E) $16,200.50
Answers
Answer:
B) $1,187.50
Explanation:
The computation of the total profit or loss on this investment is given below:
Expiration price = 1061'4 = 1061 + 4 ÷ 8 = 1061.50
Quoted price = 1056'6 = 1056 + 6 ÷ 8 = 1056.75
Now the profit is
= (1061.50 - 1056.75) × 5000 × 5
= $1,187.50
Hence, the profit on this investment is $1,187.50

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%
When bonds are issued at a discount and the effective interest method is used for amortization, at each subsequent interest payment date, the cash paid is:
Answers
Question Completion:
A. More than the effective interest.
B. Less than the effective interest.
C. Equal to the effective interest.
D. More than if the bonds had been sold at a premium
Answer:
When bonds are issued at a discount and the effective interest method is used for amortization, at each subsequent interest payment date, the cash paid is:
B. Less than the effective interest.
Explanation:
This cash payment is the product of the bond's face value multiplied by the coupon rate. The interest expense is increased by the amortized portion of the discount for the particular period. This means that the interest expense will be higher than the cash payment for interest because of the discount granted at issuance. And the interest expense is the product of the outstanding debt multiplied by the effective interest rate.
The cash paid would be less than the effective interest at each subsequent interest payment date when bonds are issued at a discount and the effective interest method is used for amortization.
The cash payment is computed by multiplying the face value of the bond with coupon rate. Here, an increase in interest expense is seen due to the discount in the amortized part.
Thus, the payment of interest would exceed means that the interest the payments in cash due to the issuance of the bond at discount.

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.
