Joe Henry's machine shop uses 2,500 brackets during the course of a year. These brackets are purchased from a supplier 90 miles away. The following information is known about the brackets: (12 points) Annual demand 4,000 Holding cost per bracket per year $1.75 Order cost per order $25.00 Lead time 4 days Working days per year 250
a. Given the above information, what would be the economic order quantity (EOQ)?
b. Given the EOQ, what would be the average inventory? What would be the annual inventory holding cost?
c. Given the EOQ, how many orders would be made each year? What would be the annual order cost?
d. Given the EOQ, what is the total annual cost of managing the inventory?
e. What is the time between orders?
f. What is the reorder point (ROP)?
Answer:
a. 339 brackets
b. 169.5 and $296.63
c. 12 and $300
d. $596.63
e. 4 days
f. 40 brackets
Explanation:
Economic Order Quantity is the Order size that minimizes holding costs and ordering cost of inventory.
Economic Order Quantity = √ 2 × Annual Demand × Ordering Cost / (Holding Cost per unit)
= √(2 × 4,000 × $25.00) / $1.75
= 339 brackets
Average Inventory = Economic Order Quantity ÷ 2
= 339 ÷ 2
= 169.5
Annual inventory holding cost = Average Inventory × Holding Cost per unit per year
= 169.5 × $1.75
= $296.63
Orders to make each year = Total Annual Demand ÷ Economic Order Quantity
= 4,000 ÷ 339 brackets
= 11.7994 or 12
Annual order cost = Number of Orders × Cost per Order
= 12 × $25.00
= $300
Total Annual Cost = Annual inventory holding cost + Annual order cost
= $296.63 + $300
= $596.63
Reorder point (ROP) = Lead time × usage per day
= 4 × ( 2,500 / 250)
= 40 brackets

Answer:
What is the initial investment outlay?
initial investment = $17 million (manufacturing equipment) + $3 (increase in net working capital) = $20,000,000The company spent and expensed $150,000 on research related to the new project last year. Would this change your answer?
No, this will not change the answer because that was a sunk cost that doesn't affect the project's initial outlay.Rather than build a new manufacturing facility, the company plans to install the equipment in a building it owns but is not now using. The building could be sold for $1.5 million after taxes and real estate commissions. How would this affect your answer?
If the company decides to do this, it will increase the project's initial outlay by $1,500,000 which is the opportunity cost of selling the building.A large open economy has desired national saving of Sd = 1200 + 1000rw, and desired national investment of Id = 1000 - 500rw. The foreign economy has desired national saving of = 1300 + 1000rw, and desired national investment of = 1800 - 500rw. The equilibrium world real interest rate equal to:________.
Answer: 10%
Explanation:
The Equilibrium real interest rate would be the interest rate that equates the Desired savings to the desired investment for both the National and foreign economy.
Desired national saving + Foreign desired national saving = Desired national investment + Foreign desired national investment
1,200 + 1,000rw + 1,300 + 1,000rw = (1,000 - 500rw) + (1,800 - 500rw)
2,500 + 2,000rw = 2,800 - 1,000rw
2,000rw + 1,000rw = 2,800 - 2,500
3,000rw = 300
rw = 0.1
rw = 10%
What is the forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) based on the following information: Capital asset turnover ratio: 2.5 Forecasted revenues: $120 Forecasted costs of goods sold: $80
Answer:
Forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) is $48.
Explanation:
First note that Capital asset is the same thing as property, plan and equipment (PP&E).
In order to calculate this, we therefore use the formula for calculating the Capital asset turnover ratio which is the ratio of forecasted revenues to forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) as follows:
Capital asset turnover = Forecasted revenues / Forecasted value of PP&E
Substituting for the values in the question into the equation above and solve for Forecasted value of PP&E, we have:
2.5 = 120 / Forecasted value of PP&E
Forecasted value of PP&E = 120 / 2.5 = $48
Therefore, the forecasted value of property, plan and equipment (PP&E) is $48.
The forecasted value of property, plan and equipment for the period for the statement quoted above is $48. The calculations can be implied by using the values given in the formula.
The value of the property, plan and equipment is important for estimating the current, short run and long run capital requirements of the firm for a given period using the ratios.
The values given to us are as the capital assets turnover ratio is 2.5 and the forecasted costs of goods sold is $80 whereas the forecasted revenues of the firm is $120.The calculation of estimated property, plan and equipment of a firm can be calculated by using the formula as given below by putting the available values.[tex]\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \dfrac {Forecasted\ Revenues}{Capital\ Assets\ Turnover\ Ratio}\\\\\\\\\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \dfrac {\$120}{2.5}[/tex]We get the forecasted PP&E of the firm as below, [tex]\rm Forecasted\ PP\&E= \$48[/tex]Therefore the value obtained for the forecasted PP&E of the firm is $48.Hence, the correct statement of the forecasted PP&E of the firm is $48 when the forecasted revenues are $120 and the assets turnover ratio stands at 2.5.

ABG Corporation has the following dividend forecasts for the next three years: Year Expected Dividend 1 $ .25 2 $ .50 3 $ 1.25 After the third year, the dividend will grow at a constant rate of 5% per year. The required return is 10%. What is the price of the stock today?
Answer:
Price of share today = $21.302
Explanation:
The price of a share can be calculated using the dividend valuation model
According to this model the value of share is equal to the sum of the present values of its future cash dividends discounted at the required rate of return.
If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the value of a share is calculated using the formula below:
Price=Do (1+g)/(k-g)
Do - dividend in the following year, K- requited rate of return , g- growth rate
Step 1 : PV of dividend from year 1 to 3
Year PV of Dividend
1 0.25 × 1.1^(-1) = 0.227
2 0.50 × 1.1^(-2) = 0.413
3 1.25 × 1.1^(-3) = 0.939
Strep 2 : PV of dividend from year 4 to infinity
PV (in year 3 terms) of dividend= 1.25 × 1.05/(0.1-0.05) = 26.25
PV in year 0 terms = 26.25 × 1.1^(-3) = 19.72
Present Value = 0.227 + 0.413 + 0.939 + 19.72 = 21.302
Price of share today = $21.302

calculate the net present value of a business deal that cost $2500 today and will return $1500 at the end of this year. use interest rate of 13%
Answer:
NPV= -$1,172.57
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Initial investment= $2,500
Cash flow= $1,500
Discount rate= 13%
To calculate the net present value (NPV), we need to use the following formula:
NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]
NPV= -2,500 + (1,500/1.13)
NPV= -1,172.57
Rita Gonzales won the $53 million lottery. She is to receive $2.2 million a year for the next 20 years plus an additional lump sum payment of $9 million after 20 years. The discount rate is 12 percent. What is the current value of her winnings
Answer:
PV= $17,365,776.86
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Cf= 2,200,000
Number of years= 20
Discount rate= 12%
Additional lump sum= 9,000,000
First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual cash flow
FV= {2,200,000*[(1.12^20) - 1]} / 0.12 + 9,000,000
FV= $167,515,373.4
Now, the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 167,515,373.4/1.12^20
PV= $17,365,776.86
g Profit maximazation for a monopolist and a perfect competitor occurs where marginal revenue equals marginal cost. At this profit-maximizing output, the monopolist will charge a price ________ marginal revenue and a perfect competitor will charge a price ________ marginal revenue.
Answer: Higher than; Equal to
Explanation:
Profit maximazation for a monopolist and a perfect competitor occurs where marginal revenue equals marginal cost.
The Marginal Revenue curves are different for either of them though and this impacts what price they sell at. This is because the price the good will be sold at depends on where the maximising output touches the demand curve.
The Monopolist has a Marginal Revenue curve that is lower than the Demand Curve. Therefore the point where Marginal Revenue and Marginal Cost intersect, will not be on the demand curve but lower than it. The price charged will therefore be the point where the maximising output touches the Demand Curve.
The Perfectly Competitive Firm however is in a market where Price is equal to the Demand curve and equal to the Marginal Revenue curve as well. The point where the Marginal Cost intersects with Marginal Revenue will also be the point where the maximising output touches the Demand curve so the price will be the same as the Marginal Revenue.
A share of common stock just paid a dividend of $1.00. If the expected long-run growth rate for this stock is 5.4%, and if investors' required rate of return is 14.2%, what is the stock price
Answer:
$11.98
Explanation:
A share of common stock just made a dividend payment of $1.00
The expected long-run growth rate of for this stock is 5.4%
= 5.4/100
= 0.054
The investors required rate of return is 14.2%
= 14.2/100
= 0.142
The first step is to calculate the dividend year 1(D1)
D1= Do(1+g)
= 1(1+0.054)
= 1×1.054
= $1.054
Therefore, the stock price can be calculated as follows
Po= D1/(rs-g)
= 1.054/(0.142-0.054)
= 1.054/0.088
= $11.98
Hence the Stock price is $11.98
3. Individual Problems 20-3 Lightweight personal locator beacons are now available to hikers, making it easier for the Forest Service's rescue teams to locate those lost or in trouble in the wilderness. True or False: Forest Service costs will likely fall due to moral hazard. True False
Answer: False
Explanation:
Moral Hazard refers to the tendency of people or entities to take on more risk if they know they will be saved from it.
With the Forest Service now making locator beacons available for hikers, the result will be that more hikers will be emboldened to hike further in the wilderness or into more dangerous areas knowing that should they get in trouble, the rescue teams will locate them faster. It will also mean that more hikers will start coming to the forest because they feel they can hike and be found easily if they get into trouble.
These 2 things will mean that the Forest Service will both have to conduct more rescue missions and maybe hire more personnel as a result of the increased number both of which will increase their costs not reduce them.

g The Fed makes an open market operation purchase of $200,000. The currency drain ratio is 33.33 percent and the desired reserve ratio is 10 percent. By how much does the quantity of money increase?
Answer: $618,000
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the Fed makes an open market operation purchase of $200,000 and that the currency drain ratio is 33.33 percent and the desired reserve ratio is 10 percent.
We first have to calculate the money multiplier which will be:
= (1 + the currency drain ratio)/( the currency drain ratio + the reserve ratio)
= (1 + 33.33%)/(33.33% + 10%)
= ( 1 + 0.33)/(0.33 + 0.1)
= 1.33/0.43
= 3.09
The quantity of money increase will be:
= 3.09 × $200,000
= $618,000

Show supporting calculations. Begin by selecting the labels used in the variable costing calculation of operating income and enter the supporting amounts. Perform the calculations in this step, but select the correct operating income in the next step.
Answer:
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).
We need to calculate the net operating income:
Sales= 120,000*40= 4,800,000
Total variable cost= (20 + 10)*120,000= (3,600,000)
Total contribution margin= 1,200,000
Fixed manufacturing costs= (600,000)
Fixed operating (nonmanufacturing) costs= (400,000)
Net operating income= 200,000

Blackwelder Factory produces two similar products-small lamps and desk lamps. The total plant overhead budget is $667,000 with 465,000 estimated direct labor hours. It is further estimated that small lamp production will require 299,000 direct labor hours and desk lamp production will need 166,000 direct labor hours. Using the single plantwide factory overhead rate with an allocation base of direct labor hours, how much factory overhead will Blackwelder Factory allocate to desk lamp production if actual direct hours for the period is 249,000. a.$356,070 b.$800,936 c.$1,000,500 d.$310,930
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $356,070
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated overhead= $667,000
Estimated direct labor hours= 465,000
Actual direct labor hours for lamp desk= 249,000
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 667,000/465,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.43 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 1.43*249,000
Allocated MOH= $356,070
Sunland Company estimates that variable costs will be 60.00% of sales, and fixed costs will total $632,000. The selling price of the product is $5. Compute the break-even point in (1) units and (2) dollars.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sunland Company estimates that variable costs will be 60.00% of sales.
Fixed costs= $632,000
The selling price of the product is $5.
First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:
Unitary variable cost= 5*0.6= $3
Now, using the following formulas, we can determine the break-even point in units and dollars.
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 632,000 / (5 - 3)
Break-even point in units= 316,000 units
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 632,000 / (2/5)
Break-even point (dollars)= $1,580,000

Additional Information:
a. Of the production costs and selling expenses, $600,000 and $100,000, respectively, are fixed.
b. Tobitzu TV received a special order from a hospital supply company offering to buy 12,000 wall mounts for $30. If it accepts the order, there will be no additional selling expenses, and there is currently sufficient excess capacity to fill the order. The company's sales manager argues for rejecting the order because "we are not in the business of paying $32 to make a product to sell for $30."
Required:
Calculate the net benefit (cost) of accepting the special order.
Answer:
$48,000 net benefit
Explanation:
For computing the net benefit or net cost for accepting the special order first we need to find out the variable cost of goods sold per unit which is shown below:
The variable cost of goods sold is
= total cost of goods sold - fixed production costs
= $3,200,000 - $600,000
= $2,600,000.
Now
Total units produced is
= Total revenue ÷ selling price per unit
= $4900000 ÷ 49
= 1,00,000 units.
So, variable cost of goods sold per unit is
= $2,600,000 ÷ 1,00,000
= $26 per unit.
Therefore the net benefit or cost arises is
= (Revenue generated from the special order) - (variable cost of goods sold)
= (12,000 × $30) - (12,000 × $26)
= $48,000 net benefit
Your Competitive Intelligence team is predicting that the Chester Company will invest in adding capacity to their Cute product this year. Assume Chester's product Cute invests in increasing its capacity by 10% this year. Because of this new information, your company anticipates all other products in the Core segment will increase their capacity by the same amount. How much can the industry produce in the Core segment the next year? Consider only products primarily in the Core segment last year. Ignore current inventories. Figures in thousands (000).
Answer:
HELLO SOME PARTS OF THE QUESTION IS MISSING ATTACHED BELOW IS THE MISSING PARTS
answer : 13156
Explanation:
Considering only products primarily in the core segment last year.
they are : Ant, cone, cute,Drat and Daze
From the question it is assumed that Chester's product Cute and other products in its Core segment will be increased by 10% this year hence we will calculate the 10% increase of each core product and add it to its initial value
For ANT (1550)
will become = 1550 + ( 10% * 1550 ) = 1705
For CONE ( 1050 )
will become = 1050 + ( 10% * 1050 ) = 1155
For Cute ( 1300 )
will become = 1300 + (10% * 1300 ) = 1430
For Drat ( 1040 )
will become = 1040 + ( 10% * 1040 ) = 1144
For DAZE ( 1040 )
will become = 1040 + ( 10% * 1040 ) = 1144
The total capacity of the current year = 1705 + 1155 + 1430 + 1144 + 1144 = 6578
Hence the Total capacity the Industry will produce in the core next year still applying the 10% increment will be = 2 * 6578 = 13156
It costs a bakery $3 to sell a single cake. This bakery makes $7 in revenue from each cake it sells. Assume this bakery sells 25 cakes. What is its total profits
Answer:
$100
Explanation:
The revenue is the total amount the company receives for the sale of products and the profit is the amount left after the costs are subtracted. Because of that, to calculate the profit you have to subtract the costs from the revenue generated:
Profit= Revenue-costs
Profit= (7*25)-(3*25)
Profit=175-75
Profit= 100
According to this, the total profit is $100.

Currently, the resort has such a favorable reputation among skiers and snowboarders that it has some control over the lift ticket prices.
Required:
a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?
b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?
Answer:
a. Would Mountain Point emphasize target pricing or cost-plus pricing? Why?
They emphasize cost plus pricing because the investors are seeking a desired rate of return on their investment and they do it by adding the desired profit margin to their costs.b. If other resorts in the area charge $66 per day, what price should Mount Snow charge?
$75.50 in order for them to generate the required ROI. Since the resort has a very good reputation, it can charge a higher price than its competitors.Explanation:
company's assets = $115,000,000
expected return on investment = 16%
fixed costs = $35,600,000
number of customers = 800,000
variable costs = $8 per customer x 800,000 = $6,400,000
total costs = $42,000,000
total cost per client = $42,000,000 / 800,000 = $52.50
desired profit = $115,000,000 x 16% = $18,400,000
desired profit per client = $18,400,000 / 800,000 = $23
price per ticket = $75.50
Classify the assumptions according to whether or not each item is an assumption made under perfect competition (also known as pure competition or competitive industry).
Assumed in perfect competition Not assumed in perfect competition
a. price-taking behavior
b. a small number of producers
c. firms selling a similar but differentiated good
d. significant barriers to entry
Answer:
Option “A” is the assumption of perfect competition while options B, C, and D are not the assumption of perfect competition.
Explanation:
Option A, is the assumption of perfect competition because, in the perfect competition, the industry decides the price with the help of market forces demand and supply. Moreover, this determined price is followed by firms in the industry. While the other options are not assumed in perfect competition because there are a large number of firms that can be seen in perfect competition and these firms sell homogeneous goods. Furthermore, the firms are free to enter and exit the market.
The following assumption are made under perfect competition:
price-taking behaviorThe following assumption are not made under perfect competition:
small number of producers firms selling a similar but differentiated good significant barriers to entryPerfect competition is a market where there are many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. There are no barriers to the entry or exit of firms into the market. An example of perfect competition is the market for apples. All apples are identical and there are many farmers who sell apples.
The market price of goods in a perfect competition is set by the market forces. So, buyers and sellers are price takers. They take the price as determined by the market forces. There is perfect information in a perfect competition.

BBQ Corporation has a target capital structure that is 70 percent equity, 30 percent debt. The flotation costs for equity issues are 15 percent of the amount raised; the flotation costs for debt are 8 percent. If BBQ needs $150 million for a new manufacturing facility, what is the cost when flotation costs are considered
Answer:
$172,215,844 is the cost when flotation costs are considered
Explanation:
flotation
Weighted average flotation cost = {(Flotation cost debt * Weight debt) + (Flotation cost equity * Weight equity)
= (8% * 0.30) + (15% * 0.70)
=0.024 + 0.105
= 0.129
= 12.9%
Calculation of the cost of funds
Cost of funds = Amount raised / (1 - Weighted average floatation cost)
= $150,000,000 / (1-0.129)
= $150,000,000 / (0.871)
=$172,215,844
Therefore, the cost of raising fund is $172,215,844

A monopoly's cost function is CQ and its the demand for its product is pQ where Q is output, p is price, and C is the total cost of production. Determine the profit-maximizingLOADING... price and output for a monopoly.
Answer:
The answer is "70 units".
Explanation:
In the given question some equation is missing which can be defined as follows:
[tex]C = 1.5Q^2+40Q\\\\P=320-0.5Q[/tex]
Monopolistic functions are used where Marginal Profit = Marginal Cost where marginal revenue and marginal cost stand for the MR and MC.
Finding the value of MR :
[tex]\ MR = \frac{\partial TR}{\partial Q} \\\\[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{\partial PQ}{\partial Q} \\\\= \frac{\partial (320-0.5Q)Q}{\partial Q}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{\partial (320Q -0.5Q^2)}{\partial Q}\\\\ = \frac{\partial Q (320 -0.5Q)}{\partial Q}\\\\ \ by \ solving \ we \ get \\\\ = 320 - Q...(1)[/tex]
Calculating the value of the MC:
[tex]MC = \frac{\partial TC}{\partial Q} \\[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{\partial (1.5Q^2 + 40Q)}{\partial Q} \\\\=\frac{\partial Q (1.5Q + 40)}{\partial Q}\\\\ \ by \ solve \ value \\\\ = 3Q + 40....(2)[/tex]
compare the above equation (i) and (ii):
[tex]\to 320 -Q = 3Q+40\\\\\to 320 -40 = 3Q+ Q\\\\\to 280 = 4Q\\\\\to 4Q =280 \\\\\to Q= \frac{280}{4}\\\\\to Q= 70 \\[/tex]
