Tucker Company makes chairs. Tucker has the following production budget for January - March.
January February March
Units Produced 9666 11971 9743
Each chair produced uses 4 board feet of wood. Management wants ending inventory levels of raw materials to equal 20% gf the production needs (in wood) for the next month.
How many board feet of wood does Tucker need to purchase in February? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 46,101 board feet of wood

Explanation:

Purchases can be calculated using the formula;

Purchases = Total Production Needs + Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory

Total Production Needs

= Units produced * boards required per unit

= 11,971 * 4

= 47,884 units needed.

Ending Inventory.

This should be 20% of production needs for the next month

= 20% * (9,743 * 4)

= 7,794 units

Beginning Inventory

This will be the ending inventory of January. The ending inventory of January is 20% of February needs.

= 20% * 47,884

= 9,577 units.

Purchases for February = 47,884 + 7,794 - 9,577

= 46,101 board feet of wood

Consider a fast food café of your choice. Apply 4 V’s of Operation. Describe each V as ‘High’, ‘Low’ or ‘Moderate’ with one liner reason.

Answers

Answer:

4 V's of Operation

The 4 V's of operation are Volume, Variety, Variation, and Visibility.  Let us take Mrs. Happy Food Cafe with over 100 outlets in Fiacton Town, as an example to illustrate the 4 V's of operation.

Volume: As a food cafe, the volume of production that will be required for some foods and drinks is so high that their provision requires repetitive tasks.  Based on this, procedures are normally standardized in order to achieve low cost for foods and drinks.  However, it is harder to standardize services, since personal touches are added by the servers based on their individual perceptions and abilities.

Variety: Mrs. Happy Food Cafe tries to bring some variety in her offerings to satisfy the various needs of her customers.  While variety is naturally low in the Food Cafe sector, some cafes like Mrs. Happy Good Cafe, try to satisfy customers' demands by varying the foods with Continental, African, Latino cuisines and dishes.

Variation: At Mrs Happy Food cafes, the food and drinks do not vary much as customers expect to be served the same quality of services at any of their cafes.  This is because the processes are standardized to achieve low cost.  So, the variation is moderate.

Visibility: Customers of Mrs Happy Food cafes are not able to see and track their experiences of the the processes for the food preparation that they order.   But, they can track the processes for the services because services are consumed as they are offered.  So, visibility is 'Moderate," as it is divided between the hard goods and the soft goods.  With respect to goods visibility is 'Low.'  However, with respect to the services the customers' visibility of processes is high.

Explanation:

The 4 V's of operation describe the different characteristics of the processes that various entities use to transform their inputs into outputs of goods and services.  They may be high, low, or moderate.  They include, volume, variety, variation, and visibility.

Bryant Co. has $2.7 million of debt, $1 million of preferred stock, and $2.1 million of common equity. What would be its weight on preferred stock

Answers

Answer:

A 30 year $1,000 par 4 3/4% Treasury Bond is quoted at 95-11 - 95-15. The note pays interest on Jan 1st and Jul 1st. A customer buys 1 bond at the ask price. What is the current yield, disregarding commissions

Answers

Answer:

4.98%

Explanation:

Calculation for the current yield

First step

Since the the bond was purchased at 95 +15/32nds this means that we have to find the bond percentage.

Calculated as

Bond Percentage = 95 + 15/32nds

Bond percentage =95.46875%

Second step is to multiply the bond percentage by $1,000

95.46875% *$1,000

= $954.6875

The last step is to find the current yield

Current yield=$47.50 /$954.6875

Current yield = 4.98%

Therefore the current yield will be 4.98%

Lincoln Park Co. has a bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.66 percent and semiannual payments. The yield to maturity is 6.3 percent and the bond matures in 16 years. What is the market price if the bond has a par value of $2,000?

Answers

Answer:

Market price of Bond = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 2000 * 0.0566 * 1/2 = $56.6

Total periods (n)= 16 * 2 = 32

r = 6.3% * 1/2 = 3.15% or 0.0315

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 56.6 * [( 1 - (1+0.0315)^-32) / 0.0315]  +  2000 / (1+0.0315)^32

Bond Price = $1872.135629 rounded off to $1872.14

Answers

Answer:

a.

i. 4.7 times

ii. 77.1 days

b

i. 7 times

ii. 52.1 days

Explanation:

Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory

average inventory for 2016 = ( 87,750 + 92,500 ) / 2 = $90,125

Inventory turnover $426,650 / $90,125 = 4.7 times

Days' sales in inventory = 365 / inventory turnover = 77.1 days

for 2017

inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory

average inventory for 2017 = ( 97,400 + 87,750 ) / 2 = $92,575

Inventory turnover $643,825 / $92,575 = 7.0 times

Days' sales in inventory = 365 / inventory turnover = 52.1 days

Consider the market for meekers in the imaginary economy of Meekertown. In the absence of international trade, the domestic price of a meeker is $23. Suppose that the world price for a meeker is $24. Assume that Meekertown is too small to influence the world price for meekers once they enter meeker the international market. If Meekertown allows free trade, then it will _______________ meeker.
When a country is too small affect the world price, allowing for free trade will always increase total surplus in that country, regardless of whether it imports or exports as a result of international trade.
a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

Export

true

Explanation:

Because the price of meekers in meekertown is lower than the world price for meekers, meekers from meekertown are cheaper. so if free trade is allowed, other countries would want to purchase meekers from meekertown because it is cheaper.

So, meekertown would export meekers if free trade is allowed.

When a country is too small affect the world price, allowing for free trade will always increase total surplus in that country, regardless of whether it imports or exports as a result of international trade.

this is so because if the country is efficient in production of a good (producing at a lower price when compared to the world price), export of the good would increase thus increasing producer surplus. if on the other hand, the country is inefficient in producing a good and the country allows for free trade, the country can import the good. this would increase consumer surplus.

Answers

Answer:

a. Logan's recognized gain is $38,600

b. Logan's recognized gain is $23,160

Explanation:

a. If the worth of the land for Jonathan is $183,350, then the gain recognized by Logan would be;

the lower of the realized gain between the amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis of $193,000 = $38,600

or the fair market worth of the received boot i.e $48,250.

Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $38,600

b. Suppose Jonathan's land is worth, $208,440, then we can calculate Logan's recognized gain to be ;

the lower of the realized gain I.e amount realized of $231,600 - adjusted basis $193,00 = $38,600

or the fair market value of the received boot I.e $23,160 .

Therefore, Logan's recognized gain is $23,160

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?

Answers

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

You experiment by offering free warranties for your product in market A but not in market B. Sales in A rise from 240 to 360 units per week while sales in B rise from 410 to 430. The Difference-in-difference estimate of the effect of the free warranty is:

Answers

Answer:

Difference in difference estimate = 50 - 5% = 45 %

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                           Market A          Market B

Sales                       240                   410

Sales rise                360                   430

Rise difference       120                     20

Percentage of rise  50%                    5%

120/240 x 100 = 50%

20/41 x 100 = 4.878% or 5%

Therefore, the Difference in difference estimate = 50 - 5% = 45 %

One can then say that the free warranties in market A brought about a difference in difference of 45% in Market A when compared to the no warranties in Market B.  This can be seen from the presented data.  Sales in A rose from 240 units to 360 units, an increase of 120 units or 50%.  Sales in market B only rose from 410 to 430, an increase of 20 units or 5%.  This difference in difference estimator shows the effect of the free warranty on market A and market B.  This means that the firm could do better by introducing the free warranties for its product in market B, all things being equal.

An increase in the aggregate supply curve shows a fall in price, which makes a high price level resulting in a greater supply of real GDP.

Money wages is the amount of money paid in wages. Money wages is indirectly proportional to real wages. The aggregate supply curve decreases if the money wage rate increases and the aggregate supply curve increases when the money wage rate falls.

Aggregate supply is affected by GDP. When A GDP decreases, it also decreases aggregate supply.

Sager Industries is considering an investment in equipment that will replace direct labor. The equipment has a cost of $86,000 with a $7,000 residual value and a 10-year life. The equipment will replace three employees who has an average total wages of $15,810 per year. In addition, the equipment will have operating and energy costs of $4,190 per year. Determine the average rate of return on the equipment, giving effect to straight-line depreciation on the investment.

Answers

Answer:

130.77%

Explanation:

depreciation expense per year using straight method = (purchase cost - salvage value) / useful life = ($86,000 - $7,000) / 10 = $7,900

total costs = depreciation expense + operating and energy costs = $7,900 + $4,190 = $12,090

average rate of return = total savings / total costs = $15,810 / $12,090 = 1.30769 = 130.77%

At July 31, Farmer Company has this bank information: cash balance per bank $8,344; outstanding checks $804; deposits in transit $1,383; and a bank service charge $58.
Determine the adjusted cash balance per bank at July 31.
The adjusted cash balance per bank at July 31:___________.

Answers

Answer:

The adjusted balance per bank is $8923

Explanation:

Adjusted cash balance per bank

Cash balance per bank (unadjusted)          8344

(+)  Deposits in transit                                   1383

(-) Outstanding checks                                 (804)

Cash balance per bank (adjusted)              8923

The adjusted cash balance per bank is calculated by adjusting the transactions that do not appear on the current bank statement.

The deposits in transit is the amount of cash deposited in the bank, that will increase the bank balance, which is still in process and has not been added to the bank account as of now. Thus, we will add this amount to calculate the adjusted bank balance.

The outstanding checks amount is the amount of checks that have been issued by the business but which are yet to be presented by the recipients of checks and will result in a reduction in the bank balance. Thus, we deduct them to calculate the adjusted balance.

The bank charge is deducted by the bank itself thus we assume that it has already been deducted. So, no adjustment is made for this.

True or False: Firms operating in more price-competitive industries, or exhibiting lower levels of market power, generally exhibit lower levels of business risk, all other things being equal. This statement is: True False

Answers

Answer:

The statement is false

Explanation:

Determining the profitability depends on market power. At a higher market power, the level of profitability will be high.

Conversely, a company operating in a system where its market power is low which results into inability to compete with other companies will cause a low probability.

Suppose that borrowing is restricted so that the zero-beta version of the CAPM holds. The expected return on the market portfolio is 17%, and on the zero-beta portfolio it is 8%. What is the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6?

Answers

Answer:

10.4%

Explanation:

The computation of expected return on a portfolio is shown below:-

Expected return = Risk Free return + 5%Beta ( Market Return - Risk Free return)

= 5% + 0.60 × (17% - 8%)

= 5% + 5.4%

= 10.4%

Therefore for computing the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6 we simply applied the above formula.

The market return less risk free return is known as market risk premium

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

Use the following information for Jett Co. to answer the following question: 2015 2014 Sales 1,200 1,000 COGS 850 700 Operating Expenses 200 200 Income Taxes 30 35 Jett Co.'s average tax rates for 2015 and 2014 are: A. 15.5% and 10.0% B. 20.0% and 35.0% C. 25.8% and 35.4%. D. 31.4% and 36.8%.

Answers

Answer:

B. 20.0% and 35.0%

Explanation:

Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2015 = Income taxes paid / Taxable income

When, Taxable Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Operating expenses

= $1,200 - $850 - $200

= $150

Hence, Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2015 = $30 / $150

= 20%

Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2014 = Income taxes paid / Taxable income

When Taxable Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Operating expenses

= $1,000 - $700 - $200

= $100

Hence,  Jett Co.'s Average tax rates for 2014 = $35 / $100

= 35%

For example, we can shift the bits in the string 1011 two places to the left to produce the string 1110. Note that the leftmost two bits are wrapped around to the right side of the string in this operation. Define two scripts, shiftLeft.py and shiftRight.py, that expect a bit string as an input. The script shiftLeft shifts the bits in its input one place to the left, wrapping the leftmost bit to the rightmost position. The script shiftRight performs the inverse operation. Each script prints the resulting string. An example of shiftLeft.py input and output is shown below: Enter a string of bits: Hello world! ello world!H An example of shiftRight.py input and output is shown below: Enter a string of bits: Hello world! !Hello world A taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they preferred brand a or brand b this table shows the results.
