The city of Modesto, California needs more water. The town engineer has selected two plans for comparison: a gravity-based plan (divert water from the Sierras and pipe it by gravity to the city) and a pumping plan (pump water from a closer water source to the city). The pumping plant would be built in two stages, with half-capacity installed initially and the other half installed 10 years later.The analysis should assume a 40-year life, 10% interest on the municipal loan used to finance the project, and no salvage value of the project or equipment and the end of its life.

Answer 1

Answer:

a pumping plan (pump water from a closer water source to the city) is prefered.

the breakeven investment cost in year 10 is $1311018. 802 in order to make these two projects equally preferable

Explanation:

From the given information; we are to :

(a) Use an annual cash flow analysis to find out which plan is preferred

(b) What is the breakeven investment cost in year 10 to make these two projects equally preferable?

The two plans selected by the engineer are:

a gravity-based plan (divert water from the Sierras and pipe it by gravity to the city)

a pumping plan (pump water from a closer water source to the city).

In order to achieve that; let's find out the Present Value for each plan.

The Present Value (PV)  of cost related to a gravity-based plan is:

[tex]PV = 2800000 +1000 a_{40} _{\urcorner}[/tex]   at 10%

[tex]PV = 2800000 +97790.50[/tex]

PV = $2897790.5

The Present Value (PV)  of cost related to a pumping plan

[tex]PV = 1400000+ \dfrac{200000}{(1+i)^{10}}+ 25000 a_{40}_{\urcorner}+5000 a_{10}_{\urcorner} + \dfrac{100000 a_{30} _{\urcorner}}{(1+i)^{10}}[/tex] at 10%

PV = 1400000 + 77108.66 + 244476.27 + 307228.36+363448.36

PV = $2392261.65

Thus; we consider the PV with lower value in order to determine which plan is prefered.

Thus; a pumping plan (pump water from a closer water source to the city) is prefered.

(b).

What is the breakeven investment cost in year 10 to make these two projects equally preferable

Let assume that  I = the break even investment cost in year 10 for the prefered pumping plan.

Then;

$2897790.5 =  $2392261.65 + (I/(1+i)¹⁰) at 10%

$2897790.5 - $2392261.65  = (I/(1+i)¹⁰) at 10%

$505528.85 = (I/(1+i)¹⁰) at  10%

0.3856 I = 505528.85

I = 505528.85/0.3856

I = $1311018.802

Thus; the breakeven investment cost in year 10 is $1311018.802 in order to make these two projects equally preferable

b. How many business class and economy class seats would be sold at the break-even point?

Answers

Answer:

a. Compute the break-even number of seats sold on a single round-trip flight for the overall product. Assume that the overall product is 10% business class and 90% economy class tickets.

90 tickets

b. How many business class and economy class seats would be sold at the break-even point?

business class = 9 ticketseconomy class = 81 tickets

Explanation:

Fixed costs:

Fuel $11,506 Flight crew salaries $8,813 Airplane depreciation $4,161Total $24,480

Variable costs:

Variable cost per passenger - business class 45 Variable cost per passenger - economy class 35

Contribution margin:

Business class ticket = $515 - $45 = $470Economy class ticket = $285 - $55 = $250

Weighted average contribution margin:

(10% x $470) + (90% x $250) = $272

break even point in units = $24,480 / $272 = 90 seats

business class = 90 x 10% = 9 seats

economy class = 90 x 90% = 81 seats

True or False: Computing interest using the sum-of-the-digits method allocates more interest at the beginning of a loan than at the end of the loan.

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

To illustrate how the sum-of-the-digits method allocates interest we can use a lease example:

You are the lessor and you will lease a machine during 4 years. The lease requires 4 equal payments of $100,000 at the beginning of the year. After the lease, the asset's salvage value = $0.

The asset's current value = $300,000, so total interests received = $100,000

Using the sum-of-the-digits method, you will allocate interest as follows:

year 1 = 3/6 x $100,000 = $50,000year 2 = 2/6 x $100,000 = $33,333year 3 = 1/6 x $100,000 = $17,000

The largest portion of interests is allocated during the beginning of the loan.

Answers

Answer:

Total unitary cost= $13

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct labor $2

Direct material 3

Variable overhead 4

Total variable cost= 9

Fixed overhead= $50,000

Units produed= 12,500

To calculate the total cost per unit, first, we need to calculate the unitary fixed overhead.

Unitary fixed overhead= 50,000/12,500= $4

Total unitary cost= 9 + 4= $13

National Advertising just paid a dividend of D0 = $0.75 per share, and that dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.50% per year in the future. The company's beta is 1.85, the required return on the market is 10.50%, and the risk-free rate is 4.50%. What is the company's current stock price? Select the correct answer. a. $9.23 b. $8.78 c. $7.43 d. $7.88 e. $8.33

Answers

Answer:

$8.78

Explanation:

National advertising made dividend payment of $0.75 per share

The dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.50%

= 6.50/100

= 0.065

The company beta is 1.85

The required return on the market is 10.50%

The risk free rate is 4.50%

The first step is to calculate the rate of return using the CAMP model

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

= 4.50%+1.85(10.50%-4.50%)

= 4.50%+1.85×6%

= 4.50%+11.1

= 15.6

Required rate of return= 15.6

Therefore the current stock price can be calculated as follows

Po= Do(1+g)/(r-g)

Where Do= 0.75, g= 0.065, r= 15.6

Po= 0.75(1+0.065)/(0.156-0.065)

Po= 0.75(1.065)/0.091

Po= 0.7987/0.091

Po= $8.78

Hence the company current stock price is $8.78

Answers

Answer:

e) 118.3.

Explanation:

days' sales in inventory = (average inventory x 365 days) / cost of goods sold year 2

cost of goods sold year 2 =  $398,000inventory year 2 = $129,000

days' sales in inventory = ($129,000 x 365 days) / $398,000 = 118.30 days

Days' sales in inventory measures how much time it takes on average for a company to sell its inventory.

Given the following items and costs as of the balance sheet date, determine the value of Light Company's merchandise inventory.

- $2,400 goods sold by Light to another company. The goods are in transit and shipping terms are FOB shipping point.
- $3,400 goods sold by another company to Light. The goods are in transit and shipping terms are FOB shipping point.
- $4,400 owned by Light but in the possession of another company, the consignee.
- Damaged goods owned by Light that originally cost $5,400 but now have an $1,200 net realizable value.

Answers

Answer:

Light Company

Merchandise Inventory:

Goods $2,400 sold on FOB shipping point =            $0

Goods $3,400 bought on FOB shipping point =       $3,400

Goods $4,400 on consignment               =                 $4,400

Goods $5,400 with net realizable value of $1,200 = $1,200

Value of inventory owned by Light Company     =  $9,000

Explanation:

a) Goods $2,400 sold on FOB shipping point: FOB shipping point means Free on Board shipping point.  This trade term specifies when ownership right is established, that it is at the shipping point and not the destination of the goods when the buyer takes possession.  The ownership was transferred to customer at shipping point with all risks and benefits.  They no longer belong to Light and are therefore not part of Light's inventory after the shipment.

b) Goods $3,400 bought on FOB shipping point:  As explained above, the ownership right and obligation were transferred at shipping point.  The goods belong to Light as it is the lawful owner based on the shipping term.

c) Goods $4,400 on consignment:  Goods on consignment do not belong legally to consignee though they are at his physical possession.  They belong to the consignor until they are sold to a third party.

d) Goods $5,400 with net realizable value of $1,200: The value of an item is not actually the cost but what it can be sold for.  This is especially so for an item that had previously suffered some damage.  The net realizable value is therefore to be used to account for the damaged goods so that profit is not overstated.

In a simple economy​ (assume there are no​ taxes, thus Y is disposable​ income), the consumption function is Upper C equals 1000 plus 0.9 Upper YC = 1000 + 0.9Y. ​
Thus, autonomous consumption is _________ nothing and the marginal propensity to consume is ______________.
A consumer whose income increases by​ $100 will increase consumption by ​$ ____________.

Answers

Answer:

Autonomous consumption is $1,000 and the marginal propensity to consume is 0.9.

A consumer whose income increases by​ $100 will increase consumption by ​$90.

Explanation:

Given C = 1000 + 0.9Y

Autonomous consumption refers to consumption expenditure of consumers that does not depend on income. Therefore, autonomous consumption is therefore the consumption expenditure made by the consumers when they do not have income or when income is zero (i.e. when Y = 0).

Substituting for Y = 0 into the consumption function, we can obtain autonomous consumption is follows:

Autonomous consumption = 1000 + (0.9 * 0) = 1,000

The marginal propensity to consume refers to the proportion of the increase in disposable income that is spent on the consumption of goods and services by a consumer. From the consumption function, the marginal propensity to consume is 0.9.

Since marginal propensity to consume is 0.9, a consumer whose income increases by​ $100 will therefore increase consumption by $90 (i.e. $100 * 0.9 = $90).

If the required return is 10 percent, what is the project's NPV?

using a financial calculator, NPV = $120,549.29

Explanation:

cash flow year 0 = $2,880,000 + $360,000 = $3,240,000

MACRS depreciation

33.33% x $2,880,000 = $960,000

44.45% x $2,880,000 = $1,280,160

14.81% x $2,880,000 = $399,840 (since salvage value is $240,000)

cash flow year 1 = [($2,140,00 - $823,000 - $960,000) x 0.65] + $960,000 = $1,192,050

cash flow year 2 = [($2,140,00 - $823,000 - $1,280,160) x 0.65] + $1,280,160 = $1,304,106

cash flow year 3 = [($2,140,00 - $823,000 - $399,840) x 0.65] + $399,840 + $240,000 + $360,000 = $1,595,994

b. When a company makes on interest payment on a note, the payment-is debited to Interest Receivables.
c. Interest on notes receivable is recognized when it is earned, which is not necessarily when the interest is received in cash.
d. Interest earned but not yet received must be recorded in an adjusting entry which include the debit to interest revenue.

Answers

Answer:

c. Interest on notes receivable is recognized when it is earned, which is not necessarily when the interest is received in cash.

Explanation:

Accrual principle of accounting is applied when it comes to recording of interest on notes receivable.

Accrual principle states that revenue or expense is recognized when it incurs or occurs not when it is paid or received.

Thus, Interest on notes receivable is recognized when it is earned, which is not necessarily when the interest is received in cash.

Answers

Answer:

Amounts owed to suppliers for products and/or services purchased on credit.

Explanation:

Accounts payable are basically short term debts that a company has with its suppliers. E.g. a retailer purchases goods from a wholesaler on terms n/30. In this case, the accounts payable would be the amount of money owed to the retailer. There is no specific time frame for an accounts payable, since it varies depending on the credit that the supplier gives. E.g. sometimes a supplier will sell on a 45 day credit period, or even 60 day period.

Epsilon Co. can produce a unit of product for the following costs:

Direct material $8.40
Direct labor 24.40
Overhead 42.00
Total costs per unit $74.80


An outside supplier offers to provide Epsilon with all the units it needs at $66.20 per unit. If Epsilon buys from the supplier, the company will still incur 30% of its overhead. Epsilon should choose to:

Buy since the relevant cost to make it is $74.80.

Make since the relevant cost to make it is $62.20.

Buy since the relevant cost to make it is $45.40.

Make since the relevant cost to make it is $45.40.

Buy since the relevant cost to make it is $62.20.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct material $8.40

Direct labor 24.40

Overhead 42.00

Total costs per unit $74.80

Purchasing price= $66.20 per unit.

First, we need to determine the real production cost per unit. If 30% of overhead is not avoidable, we will take into account only 70% of overhead.

Total production cost per unit= 8.4 + 24.4 + (42*0.7)= $62.2

It is cheaper to make the unit. If the unit is produced, the company will save $4 per unit.

At the beginning of the year, Ann and Becky own equally all of the stock of Whitman, Inc., an S corporation. Whitman generates a $120,000 loss for the year. On the 189th day of the year, Ann sells her half of the Whitman stock to her son, Scott. Becky's stock basis is $41,300 How much of the Whitman loss belongs to Ann and Becky? In your computations, round any divisions to four decimal places. Round the final answer to the nearest dollar. Assume a 365 day year. Ann's share of Whitman's loss is $_______ and Becky's share of the loss is $______ However,______ loss is limited to $__________.

Answers

Answer:

1. Share of Ann's Loss: $31,048

2. Share of Becky's Loss: $60,000

3. Maximum Loss Allowed: $41,300

Explanation:

The total loss for the year is $120,000 and both Ann and Becky own 50% each.

1. Share of Ann's Loss:

Ann had ownership of Whitman Inc. for 189 days which means the 50% of the total loss would be further lessened by 189/365 factor.

Mathematically:

Ann's Loss = $1,20,000 * 50% *  (189/365) = $31,048 Loss

2. Share of Becky's Loss:

This means that the share of loss for Becky would be = $120,000 * 50%

= $60,000

3. Maximum Loss Allowed:

As the stock basis is $41,300, hence the maximum loss for Becky would be $41,300.

A manager recorded the performance review scores for each employee and placed the results in the bar chart below. All employees received a rating on each of the Evaluation Categories. If Person 6 obtained the highest score possible, what score did Person 2 receive

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

There are six people totaling on behalf of the Score

But as a person 2 scores as much as a person 6 scores And person 1 scores as much as a person 5 scores so for all six people we only need four different ranking categories.

As an individual 6 score thus the highest

There are two people Pers 2 and Individual 6 in Excellent Category

We can say that the highest score belongs to person 3 hence Person 3 categories as Good after them from the graph.

After him, the highest score goes to person 1 and person 5, since both score equal

While person 1 and person 5 appear at Category Fair

The last person who is a minimum score of Person 4 thus falls in Poor Category.

We can also see, as with the highest scorers (2 and 6), that a total of 9 squares (these none squares are counted separately by lines in the graph) if we take each line as 4 units.

Then Individual 2 scores 36

(The only probability divisible by 9 is here 36)

Thus we may claim that individual 2 comes with 36 points in Category Excellence.

Chamberlain Co. wants to issue new 20-year bonds for some much-needed expansion projects. The company currently has 6 percent coupon bonds on the market that sell for $1,083, make semiannual payments, and mature in 20 years. What coupon rate should the company set on its new bonds if it wants them to sell at par?

Answers

Answer:

5.36%

Explanation:

We would need to calculate the yield to maturity of the current bonds:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]

coupon = $1,000 x 6% x 1/2 = $30face value = $1,000market value = $1,083n = 20 x 2 = 40

YTM = {$30 + [($1,000 - $1,083)/40]} / [($1,000 + $1,083)/2] = $27.925 / $1,041.50 = 0.026812 x 2 = 0.05362 = 5.36%

Since the bond's coupon rate is higher than the market rate, the bonds are sold at a premium. In order to sell bonds at the par value, you must lower the coupon rate.

A corporation that uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in a 40%-owned investee (that earned $20,000 and paid $5,000 in dividends) made the following entries: Investment in investee $8,000 Investment Income $8,000 Investment in investee $2,000 Cash $2,000 What effect will these entries have on the investor’s statement of financial position?

Answers

Answer:

Investment in the investee will be overstated, retained earnings will be overstated.

Explanation:

The effect on the investor’s statement of financial position is shown below:-

Because the investor owns more than 30 percent of the equity approach has to be used. This will result in overestimated investments of $8,000 which comes from $20,000 × 40 percent in investee, which will also result in overestimated retained earnings of $8,000 which comes from $20,000 × 40 percent

Two cities are identical in all respects except City A has an assessment ratio of 100% and City B (in another state) has an assessment ratio of 25%. Both cities need to raise $1,000,000 in property tax revenues. The statutory tax rates on property are

Answers

Available Options are:

A. higher in City A than City B.

B. higher in City B than City A.

C. identical in both cities.

D. dependent on non-property tax revenues in each.

Answer:

Option B. Higher in the city B than in city A.

Explanation:

If we talk about the assessment ration, then it is calculated as under:

Assessment ratio = Value of property assessed by municipality / Fair Market value of the property

This ratio helps in calculating the property tax for each year and if the ratio is higher then the property tax rate will be set higher to collect the target property tax revenue and vice versa.

As in this case, the assessment ratio of company B is 100% which is higher than city A, which means that the city B will require higher tax rates to collect the target property tax revenue.

Hence the property tax rate in city B will be higher than City A to collect the same target property tax revenue.

Years ago, a bond was issued at par with a 7% coupon. This year, new issue bonds of similar credit quality are being issued at 10%. Which statement is TRUE

Answers

Answer: A. The new bonds will be issued at a premium to the current price of the 7% bonds

Explanation:

The New Bonds will have a coupon of 10% which will be higher than the 7% that was previous on offer for the same type of bonds.

This means that the same type of bond is giving a greater return than before. Investors will therefore want more of the bond giving out better returns and will not mind paying a higher price to get it.

For this reason, the bonds issued this year with a 10% coupon will sell at a Premium (higher than) the bonds that were issued years ago that only have a coupon rate of 7%.

Suppose that you just purchased 150 shares of XYZ stock for $60 per share. a. If the initial margin requirement is 71.00%, how much money must you borrow?

Answers

Answer:

$2,610

Explanation:

Calculation for how much money you must borrow.

Using this formula

Amount to be borrowed =( Purchased shares* Per share price*(Initial margin requirement percentage)

Let plug in the formula

Amount to be borrowed= 150 shares*$60 per shares *(1-0.71)

Amount to be borrowed=$9,000*(0.29)

Amount to be borrowed=$2,610

Therefore how much money you must borrow will be $2,610
