The management of Wheeler Company has decided to develop cost formulas for its major overhead activities. Wheeler uses a highly automated manufacturing process, and power costs are a significant manufacturing cost. Cost analysts have decided that power costs are mixed. The costs must be broken into their fixed and variable elements so that the cost behavior of the power usage activity can be properly described. Machine hours have been selected as the activity driver for power costs. The following data for the past eight quarters have been collected:
Quarter Machine Hours Power cost
1 20000 26000
2 25000 38000
3 30000 42500
4 22000 37000
5 21000 34000
6 18000 29000
7 24000 36000
8 28000 40000
1. Prepare a scattergraph by plotting power costs against machine hours. Does the scattergraph show a near relationship between machine hours and power cost?
2. Using the high and low points (i.e., the high-low method), compute a power cost formula.
3. Use the method of least squares to compute a power cost formula. Evaluate the coefficient of determination.
Answer:
Explanation:
1-a See the attached photo for the a scattergraph.
1-b. Yes, the scattergraph show a near relationship between machine hours and power cost.
2. The power cost formula using the high and low points is as follows:
Total power cost = -7000 + (1.65 * Machine hours)
3-a. The power cost formula using the method of least squares is as follows:
Total power cost = 6454 + (1.21 * Machine hours)
3-b. R² = Coefficient of determination = 0.8969, or 89.69%
Explanation
1-a. Prepare a scattergraph by plotting power costs against machine hours.
Note: See the attached photo for the a scattergraph by plotting power costs against machine hours.
1-b. Does the scattergraph show a near relationship between machine hours and power cost?
Note that Scattergraph is interpreted by looking by looking for trends in the data as there is movement from left to right.
From the attached a scattergraph, it can be observed that there is an uphill pattern as there is a movement from left to right. This indicates that there a near positive relationship between power costs against machine hours.
Therefore, the scattergraph show a near relationship between machine hours and power cost.
2. Using the high and low points (i.e., the high-low method), compute a power cost formula.
2-a. Calculation of variable cost elements
Variable cost per machine hour = (Highest Power Costs - Lowest Power Costs) / (Highest machine hours – Lowest machine hours) = (42500 - 26000) / (30000 - 20000) = 1.65 per hour
2-b. Calculation of fixed cost elements
Total power cost = Total Fixed Cost + Total Variable Cost ................. (1)
Where;
Total Variable Cost = Variable cost per machine hour * Machine hours ……….. (2)
Substitute equation (2) into equation (1), we have:
Total power cost = Total Fixed Cost + (Variable cost per machine hour * Machine hours) ……………………. (3)
Using highest machine hours and substitute relevant values into equation (3), we have:
42500 = Total Fixed Cost + (1.65 * 3000)
42500 = Total Fixed Cost + 49,500
Total Fixed Cost = 42500 - 49,500
Total Fixed Cost = -7000
2-c Computation of a power cost formula
Substituting Variable cost per machine hour = 1.65 and Total Fixed Cost = -7000 into equation (3), we can compute the power cost formula as follows:
Total power cost = -7000 + (1.65 * Machine hours) ………………. (4)
Equation is the power cost formula.
3. Use the method of least squares to compute a power cost formula. Evaluate the coefficient of determination.
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of Total of Machine Hours (x), Power cost (y), xy, x^2, and y^2.
Since Σ = Total of or summation of, we can therefore obtain the following from the attached excel file:
Σx = 190,800
Σy = 282,500
Σxy = 6,878,400,000
Σx² = 4,666,540,000
Σy² = 10,188,250,000
N = Number of quarters = 8
3-a. Use the method of least squares to compute a power cost formula
Step 1: Calculation of variable cost per rental return
To calculate the variable power cost per machine hour, the following formula is used:
Variable power cost per machine hour = (NΣxy − ΣxΣy) /((NΣx²) − (Σx)²) ……………… (5)
= (Σxy – (1/8)ΣxΣy) /((Σx²) – (1/8)(Σx)²)
=(6,878,400,000 – ((1/8) * 190,800 * 282,500)) / (4,666,540,000 – ((1/8) * 190,800²))
Substituting the relevant values into equation (5), we have:
Variable cost per rental return = ((8 * 6,878,400,000) - (190,800 * 282,500)) /((8 * 4,666,540,000) - 190,800²)
Variable power cost per machine hour = 1.21
Step 2: Calculation of quarterly fixed power cost
This can be calculated using the following formula:
Fixed Cost per quarter = {Σy - (Variable power cost per machine hour * Σx) / N ....... (6)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (6), we have:
Fixed Cost per quarter = (282,500 - (1.21 * 190,800)) / 8
Fixed Cost per quarter = 6,454
Step 3: Computation of the power cost formula
Substituting Variable cost per machine hour = 1.21 and Total Fixed Cost = 6,454 into equation (3) in part 2 above, we can compute the power cost formula as follows:
Total power cost = 6454 + (1.21 * Machine hours) ………………. (4)
Equation (4) is the power cost formula.
3-b. Evaluate the coefficient of determination.
This can be evaluated using the following formula:
R² = Coefficient of determination = (NΣxy – ΣxΣy) / ((NΣx² - (Σx)²) * (NΣy² - (Σy)²))^0.5 ……….. (5)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (5) we have:
R² = ((8 * 6,878,400,000) – (190,800 * 282,500)) / (((8 * 4,666,540,000) – 190.800²) * ((8 * 10,188,250,000) – 282,500²))^0.5
R² = 0.8969, or 89.69%

a) Construct a histogram for the data and use it to evaluate the validity of the normality assumption.
b) Obtain the mean and standard deviation for the data and use these statistics to evaluate the validity of the normality assumption.
c) Obtain the interquartile rage for the data and use these statistics to evaluate the validity of the normality assumption
Answer:
A) attached below
B) mean value = 67.755, std = 26.871
C) IQR( interquartile range ) = 37
Explanation:
A) Construct a histogram for the data and use it to evaluate the validity of normality assumption
Using Minitab to construct the Histogram from the shape of the Histogram we can see that the Normality assumption is valid because the shape is fairly symmetric
screenshot of Histogram is attached below
B) Obtain the mean and standard deviation for the data and use these statistics to evaluate the validity of the normality assumption.
still using Minitab to determine the std and mean values
mean value = 67.755, std = 26.871
Next : find the percentage of the observation that lie within 1,2 and 3 std from the mean
For one(1) std from the mean the interval = ( 40.884, 94.626 )
percentage of observation = 665 / 992 = 67.04
For two(2) std from the mean; The interval = ( 14.013 , 121.497 )
percentage of observation = 946 / 992 = 95.36%
For three(3) std from the mean ; The interval = ( -12.858, 148.368 )
percentage of observations = 991 / 992 = 99.90%
The percentages from the above calculations indicates the validity of the normality assumption
C) Obtain the interquartile rage for the data and use these statistics to evaluate the validity of the normality assumption
using MINITAB
since the data are assumed Normal; Ratio = [tex]\frac{IQR}{S} = 1.3[/tex]
std (s) = 26.871, IQR( interquartile range ) = 37
Next check if IQR / S will be = 1.3
= 37 / 26.871 = 1.377 ( This validates the normality assumption )

On January 1, 2019, Metco Inc. reported 268,000 shares of $5 par value common stock as being issued and outstanding. On March 24, 2019, Metco Inc. purchased for its treasury 3,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $38.00 per share. On August 19, 2019, 610 of these treasury shares were sold for $46.50 per share. Metco's directors declared cash dividends of $0.40 per share during the second quarter and again during the fourth quarter, payable on June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2019, respectively. A 2% stock dividend was issued at the end of the year. There were no other transactions affecting common stock during the year. Calculate the number of shares of stock issued in the stock dividend.
Answer:
The number of shares of stock issued in the stock dividend is 5,312.20 shares.
Explanation:
This can be determined as follows:
Number of shares before stock dividend = Number of shares reported on January 1, 2019 - Number of shares purchased for its treasury on March 24, 2019 + Number of treasury shares were sold on August 19, 2019 = 268,000 - 3,000 + 610 = 265,610
Number of dividend shares = Number of shares before stock dividend * Rate of stock dividend issued = 265,610 * 2% = 5,312.20
Therefore, the number of shares of stock issued in the stock dividend is 5,312.20 shares.

Dream, Inc., has debt outstanding with a face value of $6 million. The value of the firm if it were entirely financed by equity would be $18.25 million. The company also has 440,000 shares of stock outstanding that sell at a price of $32 per share. The corporate tax rate is 35 percent. What is the decrease in the value of the company due to expected bankruptcy costs? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)
Answer:
$955,000
Explanation:
According to the Modigliani and Miller theory, we can calculate the value of the levered firm which is denoted by;
VI = Vu + tB
VI = 18.25million + 0.35(6million)
VI = 20.35 million
We can also calculate the total market value of the firm Vt by adding the debt (B) with the total equity (SV)
Vt = B + SV
Vt = 5 million + 440,000(32)
Vt = 5 million + 14.80 million
Vt = 19.80 million
Then the decrease in the value of the company due to bankruptcy is
Vb = VI - Vt
Vb = 20.35 million - 19.80 million
VB = $955,000

Chen Company's Small Motor Division manufactures a number of small motors used in household and office appliances. The Household Division of Chen then assembles and packages such items as blenders and juicers. Both divisions are free to buy and sell any of their components internally or externally. The following costs relate to small motor LN233 on a per unit basis.
Fixed cost per unit $5.20
Variable cost per unit $10.81
Selling price per unit $34.55
Assuming that the Small Motor Division has excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of small motor LN233 to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Minimum transfer price $ per unit
Assuming that the Small Motor Division does not have excess capacity, compute the minimum acceptable price for the transfer of the small motor to the Household Division. (Round answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
1. If the small motor division has excess capacity,
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost
Variable cost per unit = $10.81
Add:
Opportunity cost per unit = $0.00 (Because the company has sufficient excess capacity)
Minimum transfer price = $10.81
2. If the small motor division has excess capacity,
Minimum transfer price = Variable cost + Opportunity cost
Variable cost per unit = $10.81
Add:
Opportunity cost per unit = $23.74 (As the company has no excess capacity, contribution lost is the opportunity cost)
Minimum transfer price = $34.55
N.B
Contribution lost = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
= $34,55 - $10.8 = $23.74
A company pays its employees $3,850 each Friday, which amounts to $770 per day for the five-day workweek that begins on Monday.

This morning, you purchased a seventeen-year, 6.45% annual coupon bond with face value of $1,000 at a price of $1,030.04. Just after purchasing the bond, the yield to maturity of the bond falls to 5.50 percent and stays at that level throughout your investment period. If you sell your bond after holding it for seven years, what will be your realized rate of return
Answer:
6.73%
Explanation:
the price of the bond in seven years is:
PV = $1,000 / (1 + 5.50%)¹⁰ = $585.43
PV of coupon payments = $64.50 x 7.538 (PVIFA, 5.5%, 10 years) = $486.20
market price = $1,071.63
using an excel spreadsheet of financial calculator, the annual rate of return:
year 0 = -1030.04
year 1 = 64.5
year 2 = 64.5
year 3 = 64.5
year 4 = 64.5
year 5 = 64.5
year 6 = 64.5
year 7 = 1136.13
IRR = 6.73%

AP* Price discrimination occurs when differences in a product's price reflect differences in marginal costs differences in a product's price reflect differences in marginal costs a products's average cost is greater than its average revenue a products's average cost is greater than its average revenue differences in a product's price do not reflect differences in costs of production differences in a product's price do not reflect differences in costs of production a product's average cost is less than its average revenue a product's average cost is less than its average revenue the supply of the product is elastic
Answer:
differences in a product's price do not reflect differences in costs of production.
Explanation:
Price can be defined as the amount of money that is required to be paid by a buyer (customer) to a seller (producer) in order to acquire goods and services.
In sales and marketing, pricing of products is considered to be an essential element of a business firm's marketing mix because place, promotion and product largely depends on it.
One of the importance associated with the pricing of products is that, it improves the image of a business firm.
Price discrimination refers to the situation in which a business firm sells an identical product to different consumers at different selling price based on reasons that are not in any way associated or related with its manufacturing cost.
This ultimately implies that, price discrimination occurs when differences in a product's price do not reflect differences in costs of production.
A publishing house is using 400 printers and 200 printing presses to produce books. The printers' wage rate is $20 and the price of a printing press is $100. The last printer added 20 books to total output, while the last press added 50 books to total output. In order to maximize the number of books published with a budget of $28,000, the publishing house
Answer:
The publishing house is not using cost minimizing combination of printers and printing press.
Explanation:
The publishing house go towards more of printers and less of printing press because the cost of printing price is almost three times higher than the cots of printers.

Roberta transfers property with a tax basis of $495 and a fair market value of $546 to a corporation in exchange for stock with a fair market value of $356 in a transaction that qualifies for deferral under section 351. The corporation assumed a liability of $190 on the property transferred. What is the amount realized by Roberta in the exchange
Answer: $546
Explanation:
The amount realized by Roberta in the exchange will be gotten through the addition of the fair value of the stock that was acquired to the liability that's assumed by the corporation. This will be:
Fair value of stock acquired = $356
Add: Liability assumed by corporation = $190
Amount realised = $356 + $190 = $546
