The opportunity to defer investing in a project until a later date may have value primarily because: __________

a. the option to abandon may disappear.
b. investment costs tend to increase over time.
c. market conditions may improve.
d. the cost of capital may increase.
e. project cash flows may be lower in the future.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c. market conditions may improve.

Explanation:

Investing in the right time and at the right place is very important. It can help to make money or profit or to loose money.

When a company permanently rejects the opportunity to invest in a project to day may not be a good or a wise decision mainly because the company is foregoing all the possible future options. And so the opportunity to postpone an investment by a company in a project until another time in the future has value as in the future the market condition may improve. And it will be better to invest at that time in the project.

Required:

a. Construct the company's contribution format income statement for April. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
b. Redo the company's contribution format income statement assuming that the company sells 1,800 units.

Answers

Answer:

1. $15,500

2. $11,700

Explanation:

Given the following information,

the company sold 1,900 units

Total sales were $152,000

Total variable expenses were $79,800

Total fixed expenses were $56,700

The structure for Contribution income margin format is seen below;

Income statement:

Sales

- Total Variable cost

= Contribution margin

- Fixed costs

= Net Operating income

1. Income statement

Sales = $152,000

Less Total variable cost = ($79,800)

Contribution margin = $72,200

Less Total Fixed costs = ($56,700)

Net operating income = $15,500

2. Here, we need to calculate the unitary selling price and the unitary variable cost

Selling price = $152,000 ÷ 1,900 units = $80

Unitary Variable cost = $79,800 ÷ 1,900 units = $42

Therefore,

Sales = 1,800 units × $80

$144,000

Less total variable cost = 1,800 units × $42

$75,600

Contribution margin

$68,400

Less total fixed costs

$56,700

Net operating income

$11,700

Robert Rogers, CPA performed accounting services for a client in December. A bill was mailed to client on December 30. Roberts received a check in the mail on January 5. The revenue principle would require that which of the following accounts appear on the income statement for the year ended December 31?

a. Accounts payable
b. Prepaid expense
c. Unread revenue
d. Service revenue

Answers

Answer:

D) Service Revenue

Explanation:

From the question we are informed about the Robert Rogers, CPA who performed accounting services for a client in December. A bill was mailed to client on December 30. Roberts received a check in the mail on January 5. The revenue principle would require that which of the following accounts appear on the income statement for the year ended December 31 is Service revenue.

Service revenue can be regarded as

the income that is been generated by a company through the service they provide. This amount can be seen on the top of the company's income statement, and there is addition of this amount to the revenue gotten from

product earnings so that total revenue of company can be calculated for a specific period of time.

A profit-maximizing entrepreneur rents an apple orchard for a day. He is a price taker in both the market for labor and the market for apples. Assume that a bushel of apples sells for $10. Laborers are hired by the day (the variable input) to pick apples (the product). The production function (the relationship between the number of laborers hired and the number of bushels of apples picked) looks like this:

Laborers hired per day Total product(bushels of apples per day)
4 52
5 60
6 66
7 70
8 72

How many laborers would the entrepreneur employ if the government raised the minimum wage to $75 per day?

a. 4
b. 8
c. 5
d. 7
e. 6

Answers

Answer:

c. 5

Explanation:

L       Q     MPL (ΔinQ/ΔinL)    VMPL

4      52  

5      60              8                       80

6      66              6                       60

7      70               4                       40

8 72               2                       20

Note: Labour hired per day = L, Total product = Q, Marginal Product of labor=MPL, VMPL =Price*MPL

A firm will maximize the profit by increasing the number of labor as long as VMPL is higher than or equal to the wage rate. In this case, we observe that VMPL ($80)>wage rate ($75) for L=5 but VMPL ($60)<wage rate ($75) for L=6. So, the optimal number of labor to be hired is 5.

Based on your focus group, you ask your product research team to propose different formulas for turmeric meal replacement shakes. Keeping in mind that all In Fine Fettle's products use ingredients that are of higher quality than the competition's, your food scientists offer you three different formulations. Choose the formula that would be most attractive to the target market.
A. Has the highest turmeric content and anti—inflammatory properties
Made with quality ingredients
Taste rated as 5/10
B. Has the second-highest turmeric content and anti—inflammatory properties
Made with superior quality ingredients
Taste rated as 7/10
C. Has the lowest turmeric content and anti—inflammatory properties
Made with quality ingredients
Taste rated as 9/10

Answers

Answer: B. Has the second-highest turmeric content and anti-inflammatory properties

Made with superior quality ingredients

Taste rated as 7/10

Explanation:

The formula in B would be the most attractive because it is a compromise between the first and the second more 'extreme' formulas.

The first one for instance has the highest turmeric content but is lacking in taste. The third has the lowest content and is sweet. Consumers would most probably go for a compromise and pick the formula with the second highest content and not to bad taste wise whilst still being made of superior ingredients.

The Treasury department issued a 10-year bond on January 1, 2015. The par value is $1,000 and the annual coupon rate is 10%. The bond pays two coupons every year, one at the end of June and one at the end of December. The required annual yield is 8%. An investor bought the bond on March 31, 2015. What is the price that he should pay for the bond

Answers

Answer:

$1,135.90

Explanation:

The bond price formula is given below, the formula implies that the price of the bond is the present value of future cash flows which are the semiannual coupons and the face value

Bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+semiannual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r

face value=$1,000

r= semiannual yield to maturity=8%*6/12=4%

n=number of semiannual coupons in 10 years=10*2=20

semiannual coupon=face value*coupon rate*6/12=$1,000*10%*6/12=$50

bond price=$1,000/(1+4%)^20+$50*(1-(1+4%)^-20/4%

bond price=$1000/(1.04)^20+$50*(1-(1.04)^-20/0.04

bond price=$1000/2.191123143 +$50*(1-0.456386946 )/0.04

bond price=$1000/2.191123143 +$50*0.543613054/0.04

bond price= $456.38  +$679.52  

= $1,135.90  

Berkshire Inc. uses a periodic inventory system. At the end of 2017, it missed counting some inventory items, resulting in an inventory understatement by $610,000. Assume that Berkshire has a 30% income tax rate and that this was the only error it made. If undetected, what is the effect of this error on Berkshire's December 31,2017 balance sheet

Answers

Answer:

Since the inventory was understated, that means that the cost of goods sold was overstated. Since the COGS was higher, gross profits and operating income were lower. This results in lower than income taxes, and lower net income.

Lower net income results in understated retained earnings (by $427,000), also taxes payable, a liability, will also be understated by $183,000. On the other side of the balance sheet, assets ill be understated by $610,000.

Monica Smith was unemployed because the steel company, where she worked, closed and moved overseas to a foreign country. Other steel companies have also closed. Her skills are not transferable to another industry and she is unable to get a job.She would be classified as:_________.

Answers

Answer:

structurally unemployed.

Explanation:

Unemployment rate refers to the percentage of the total labor force in an economy, who are unemployed but seeking to be gainfully employed. The unemployment rate is divided into various types, these include;

1. Cyclical unemployment rate (CU).

2. Frictional unemployment rate (FU).

3. Structural unemployment rate (SU).

Structural unemployment can be defined as an involuntary unemployment that arises as a result of the incompatibility between a worker's skills set and requisite skills an employer seeks from the workers or due to technological changes.

This ultimately implies that, it describes a situation where an individual isn't able to secure a job as a result of insufficient number of jobs matching their qualifications, thus limiting their opportunities.

In this scenario, Monica Smith was unemployed because the steel company, where she worked, closed and moved overseas to a foreign country. Other steel companies have also closed. Her skills are not transferable to another industry and she is unable to get a job.

Hence, she would be classified as structurally unemployed.

A company manufactures and sells three products. The products are all manufactured at the same facility. The controller of the company has decided to accumulate all budgeted overhead costs for the manufacturing facility into a single cost pool. The cost pool is then allocated to the three products based on the direct labor hours used by each product. What type of overhead rate has the controller most likely used in this allocation methodology?

Answers

Answer:

Plant-wide rate.

Explanation:

A plant-wide rate can be defined as a single overhead rate used by business firms or companies to allocate the manufacturing overhead costs to the level of output or productivity.

Suppose you are deciding whether you should go to college. If you go to college, you will pay $10,000 total in tuition, textbooks, and room and board every year for 4 years, with the first payment being made immediately and then the next three payments 1 year apart. Upon graduating, you expect to get a job earning $50,000 per year for the next 40 years. Assume that your first paycheck arrives exactly 1 year after you start working and you continue getting paid annually thereafter. Also assume that there are no raises in that particular field. If you do not go to college, you can start working immediately. The pay, however, is lower. You would expect to work for 44 years and earn $34,000 per year, with your first paycheck arriving exactly 1 year from now, and you continue getting paid annually thereafter. For the questions below, round all numbers to two decimals.
Part 1 Assume the interest rate is 7%. If you were to attend college, the present value of your tuition payments would total _______ $

$741,407.10

Part 3 The net present value of going to college is _____

$707,537.10

Part 4. The present value of your annual earnings of $34,000 if you don't go to college is ________

$719,270

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Annual Tuition, etc = $10,000

Number of college years = 4

Interest rate = 7%

Present Value Annuity Factor = 3.387

PV of $10,000 = $10,000 * 3.387 = $33,870

Annual salary after college in 4 years' time = $50,000

Number of years earning salary = 40 years

Present value annuity factor = 19.434 * 0.763 = 14.828142 (reduced to earnings after 4 years)

PV of $50,000 = $50,000 * 14.828142 = $741,407.10

NPV of going to college = $741,407.10 - $33,870 = $707,537.10

Annual salary without college = $34,000

Number of years earning salary without college = 44 years

Present value annuity factor = 21.155

PV of $34,000 in perpetuity = $34,000 * 21.155 = $719,270

Future Value of an annuity due: FV = Pmt x ((1+r)n -1))/r) x (1+r)

When Payment per period (PMT) = $10,000, Discount Rate per period= 8%,Number of periods (n) = 10

Future Value = $10,000 * ((1+0.08)^10 -1))/0.08) * 1.08

Future Value = $10,000 * [(1.08)^10 - 1 ]/ 0.08 * 1.08

Future Value = $10,000 * 2.15892499727-1/0.08 * 1.08

Future Value = $10,000 * 1.15892499727/0.08 * 1.08

Future Value = $10,000 * 14.486562465875 * 1.08

A loan of $12,000 is to be repaid within one year with level monthly payments, due at the beginning of each month. The 12 payments equal $1,000 each. A finance charge of $632 is also due with the first payment. Which of the following is closest to the effective annual interest rate on the loan?

a. 12.7%
b. 12.9%
c.13.1%
d. 13.3%
e. 13.5%

Answers

Solution :

It is given : loan amount = $12,000

Time to repay = 12 months

Finance charge = $ 632

AT the interest rate, outflow = inflow

The present value of the loan amounts = loan amount

[tex]$1000+632+[1000 \times (PVAF (r ,11))]=12000$[/tex]

[tex]$1000 \times PVAF(r,11)=12000-1632$[/tex]

[tex]$PVAF(r,11)=\frac{10368}{1000}$[/tex]

[tex]$PVAF(r,11)=10.368$[/tex]

Now using the annuity table we get

PVAF(1%, 11)=10.9676

This is equal to 10.368 (approximately)

∴ [tex]$r=1$[/tex] % per month of compounded monthly

So the annual interest rate is :

[tex]$=[(1+0.01)^{12}]-1$[/tex]

[tex]$r=[(1.01)^{12}]-1$[/tex]

[tex]$r = 12.68$[/tex] %

  = 12.70 %

Hence the correct option is (a).

The loan's effective yearly interest rate is 12.7 percent. As a result, option (a) is the proper response.

How do you compute the Annual Interest rate?

[tex]\text{It is given : loan amount} = $12,000\\\text{Time to repay} = 12 months\text{Finance charge} = $ 632\\\text{At the interest rate, outflow = inflow}\\\text{The present value of the loan amounts = loan amount}[/tex]

[tex]1000 + 632 + [ (P.V (r.11))] = 12,000\\\\1000 \text { x } P.V (r,11) = 12,000 - 1,632\\\\P.V (r.11) = \frac{10,368}{1000}\\\\P.V (r,11) = 10.368[/tex]

[tex]\text{Now using the annuity table we get} \\P.V (0.01, 11) =10.9676\\\text{This is equal to 10.368 (approximately)}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.01 \text{ per month}\\\text{ Annual Interest rate}:\\r= [(1+0.01}^{12}] - 1\\r= [(1.01}^{12}] - 1\\r= 12.68\\[/tex]

Therefore, the closest option among the following choices is an option (a), i.e., 12.7%
