Answer:
Vesuvius
1. The contribution per unit for the "Vesuvius" brand is:
= $25.60.
2. The break-even volume in units and in dollars:
Break-even volume in units = FC/Contribution per unit
= $1,115,000/$25.60
= 43,555 units
Break-even volume in dollars = FC/Contribution margin ratio
= $1,115,000/0.753
= $1,480,745
3. Market share that the Vesuvius brand needs to break-even is:
= 4.36%
4. The current total contribution is:
= $4,864,000
5. The current before-tax profit of the Vesuvius brand is:
= $3,749,000
6. The market share that Vesuvius must obtain to contribute a before tax profit of exactly $3.9 million is:
= 19.59%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
a. Retail selling price $50 per unit
b. Retailer's margin 20%
c. Jobber's margin 15%
d. Wholesaler's margin 23.5%
e. Direct factory labor $2 per unit
f. Raw materials $1 per unit
g. All factory and administrative overheads $2 per unit (if unit volume = 100,000)
h. Salesperson's commissions 10% of manufacturer's selling price
i. Sales force travel costs $215,000
j. Advertising $900,000
k. Total market for counter top vegetable steamers 1 million units
l. Current yearly sales of "Vesuvius" 190,000 units
Total fixed costs = $1,115,000 ($215,000 + $900,000)
Variable Costs:
Direct materials per unit = $1
Direct labor cost per unit = $2
Total direct costs per unit = $3
Variable overhead costs per unit = $2
Total factory costs per unit = $5
Total factory costs for 100,000 units = $500,000
Wholesaler's selling price = $50 * (100% - 20) * (100% - 15) = $34
Sales commission = 10% of $34 = $3.4
Total variable cost per unit = $8.40 ($5 + $3.40)
Contribution margin per unit = $25.60 ($34 - $8.40)
Contribution margin ratio = $25.60/$34 = 75.3%
Market share to break-even = Break-even units/Market size * 100
= 43,555/1,000,000 * 100 = 4.36%
The current total contribution = $25.60 * 190,000
= $4,864,000
Total fixed costs = $1,115,000
Current before-tax profit = $3,749,000
Market Share to contribute a before-tax profit of exactly $3.9 million:
= (Fixed cost + Target profit)/Contribution per unit
= ($1,115,000 + $3,900,000)/ $25.60
= 195,898/1,000,000 * 100 = 19.59%

The next dividend payment by Zone, Inc., will be $2.08 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a growth rate of 6 percent forever. If the stock currently sells for $42 per share, what is the required return
Answer:
10.95%
Explanation:
According to the gordon growth model,
the value of stock (price) = dividend / required return - growth rate
42 = 2.08/ r - 0.06
42(r-0.06) = 2.08
2.08/42 = r - 0.06
r = 10.95%

The following information is available for the adjusting entries. Accrued interest on the notes payable at year-end amounted to $4,000 and will be paid January 1, 2022. Accrued salaries at year-end amounted to $3,000 and will be paid on January 5, 2022. Supplies remaining on hand at the end of the year equal $3,800. Problem 3-9B Part 9 9. Record closing entries.
Question Completion:
Assume that Supplies were purchased during the year worth $13,000.
Record the adjusting entries.
Answer:
Adjusting Journal Entries on December 31, 2021:
Debit Interest Expense $4,000
Credit Interest payable $4,000
To record the accrued interest on the notes payable.
Debit Salaries Expense $3,000
Credit Salaries payable $3,000
To record the accrued salaries at year end.
Debit Supplies Expense $9,200
Credit Supplies $9,200
To record supplies expense for the year.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Supplies purchased = $13,000
Supplies at year-end = 3,800
Supplies consumed = $9,200 ($13,000 - $3,800)
b) Adjusting entries are journal entries done at the end of a financial period to ensure that expenses and revenues are matched to the period they occur instead of when cash is exchanged. This accords with the accrual concept and the matching principle of accounting.
When developing baseline standards, it is vital to use industry best practices. Industry best practices standards enable one to justify choices being made to regulators. Furthermore, there is increased efficiency to be gained by modifying an existing standard as opposed to creating one from the ground up.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
A baseline may be defined as the minimum amount of security that a network, a device or a system must adhere to. They are generally mapped to the industry standards. It is applied to the several layers of the IT infrastructure of an organization.
When developing them, it is very important to make use of the industry best practices. It enables to justify the choices that are being made to the regulators.
Hence the answer is true.

If the budgeted direct labor time for December is 4,000 hours, then the predetermined manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour for December would be:
Tierney Construction, Inc. recently lost a portion of its financial records in an office theft. The following accounting information remained in the office files:
Cost of goods sold $88,250
Work in process inventory, January 1, 2016 21,800
Work in process inventory, December 31, 2016 17,250
Selling and Administrative Expenses 20,400
Net Income 35,500
Factory overhead 21,650
Direct materials inventory, January 1, 2016 28,200
Direct materials inventory, December 31, 2016 15,375
Cost of goods manufactured 107,350
Finished goods inventory, January 1, 2016 35,675
Direct labor cost incurred during the period amounted to 2.5 times the factory overhead. The CFO of Tierney Construction, Inc. has asked you to recalculate the following accounts and to report to him by the end of tomorrow.
What should be the amount in the finished goods inventory at December 31, 2016?
Answer:
$54,775
Explanation:
The computation of the finished goods inventory is shown below:
As we know that
Cost of Goods sold = Cost of goods manufactured + Opening stock of Finished goods - Closing stock of Finished goods
Now
Ending Stock of Finished goods = Cost of goods manufactured + Opening stock of Finished goods - Cost of Goods sold
So,
Ending Stock of Finished goods is
= $107,350 + $35,675 - $88,250
= $54,775

Tom is comparing two printers for his small business. The purchase price for Printer A is $1,000, with maintenance and operations costs of $400. Printer B increases productivity by $100, and reduces the maintenance and operations costs by half. The expected lifetime value is one year for both printers. What is the economic value to the customer (EVC) of Printer B
Answer:
EVC = $1300
Explanation:
In this question, we need to find the economic value to the customer (EVC) of Printer B.
First of all we need to know the basics of Economic value of a product,
It is basically starts with evaluating the additional values of the product first which are associated with it and then, those values are added to the next best product in the market. In this case, Printer A is the next best product whose price is $1000.
We know that, Printer B increase productivity by $100
Reduce the maintenance and operations costs by half, which means $400/2 = $200.
Additional value of the product = $100 + $200
Cost of the next best product = $1000
So,
According to the EVC definition and understandings, we must add the additional values of the product to value of the next best product.
Hence,
EVC = $1000 + $100 + $200
EVC = $1300

An economic profit includes implicit costs and accounting profit does not. A distinction between them is important because an accounting profit is a relative amount of money. Some amount of accounting profit may or may not be a sufficient amount of profit to keep an entrepreneur in:________
Answer:
his/ her present line of business
Explanation:
Economic profit is accounting profit less implicit cost
Accounting cost is total revenue less explicit cost
Implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives
Explicit cost is the actual cost incurred in carrying out an activity.
In determining profit, it is essential to consider implicit cost to determine if the business is earning economic profit
(b) The citizens of this country are in general very clever people, but they are not good at multiplying by 2. This made shopping for potatoes excruciatingly difficult for many citizens. Therefore it was decided to introduce a new unit of currency, such that potatoes would be the numeraire. A sack of potatoes costs one unit of the new currency while the same relative prices apply as in the past. In terms of the new currency, what is the price of meatballs
Answer: 2 sacks of potatoes
Explanation:
In the past, meatballs cost 4 crowns per crock which was twice the price of Potatoes at 2 crowns per sack.
Now that potatoes were are the new currency but relative prices apply, the same notion above applies too.
If meatballs are twice the price of potatoes and potatoes are now the currency, then meatballs which are still twice the price of potatoes must be:
= 2 * 1 sack of potatoes
= 2 sacks of potatoes
After graduating from college, you are hired by the Ford automobile company as an economic analyst. For your first project, you are asked to estimate what would happen to the sales of Ford Mustangs as a result of a change in (i) the price of a Chevrolet Camaro, (ii) the price of gasoline, and (iii) consumer incomes. You are given the following elasticities:
price elasticity Of demand for Ford Mustangs= -2.5
Cross-price elasticity between Ford Mustangs and Camaros =1.5
Cross-price elasticity between Ford Mustangs and gasoline= -0.80
Income elasticity of demand for Ford Mustangs= 3.00
a. Suppose the price Of a Camaro falls by 10%. With all else being equal, sales of Ford Mustangs would______ by_______%
b. If the price of gasoline increases by 20%, the quantity of Ford Mustangs would _________by_______%
Answer:
a. Decrease by 15%
b. decrease by 16%
Explanation:
a. As we know that
Camaro and ford mustangs would be considered as a substitute goods as the cross price elasticity of demand comes in positive so in the case when the price of camaro decrease so the quantity of Mustang would also decreased by 1.5 ×10% = 15%
b. As we know that Gasoline and mustang would be considered as complementary goods so if the price of gasoline would increase by 20% so the quantity of mustang be decreased by 0.80 × 20% = 16%
The bonds in our model have a maturity close to zero; they just pay the current interest rate, i, as a flow over time. We could consider, instead, a discount bond, such as a U.S. Treasury Bill. This type of asset has no explicit interest payments (called coupons) but pays a principal of, say, $1000 at a fixed date in the future. A Bill with one- year maturity pays off one year from the issue date, and similarly for 3-month or 6-month Bills. Let PB be the price of a discount bond with one-year maturity and principal of $1000. a. Is PB greater than or less than $1000.
a. Is P^B greater than or less than $1000?
b. What is the one-year interest rate on these discount bonds?
c. If prises, what happens to the interest rate on these bonds?
d. Suppose that, instead of paying $1000 in one year, the bond pays $1000 in two years. What is the interest rate per year on this two-year discount bond?
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Part a.
[tex]P^{B}[/tex] will be less than $1000.
Reason: [tex]P^{B}[/tex] + interest = $1000, since interest >0 (Cannot be negative)
Hence,
[tex]P^{B}[/tex] < $1000
Part b.
Assuming the amount of interest to be i, [tex]P^{B}[/tex] would be $1000 - I
Rate of interest would be:
($1000 - ($1000-i)) / ($1000 - i) = i / ($1000 - i)
Rate of interest = i / ($1000 - i)
Part c.
If [tex]P^{B}[/tex] rises, the interest rate on these bonds would come down. Going back to a. [tex]P^{B}[/tex] = $1000 - i, and if [tex]P^{B}[/tex] rises, it implies that i reduces, which means that rate of interest will be reduced.
Part d.
If $1000 is a payment two years later, it implies that i (refer to b.) is the interest for two years. Assuming annual compounding, let's calculate rate of interest as follows:
Interest for two year (i) = $1000 - [tex]P^{B}[/tex] at the rate of i per year
= [tex]P^{B}[/tex] X i / 100 + ([tex]P^{B}[/tex] X (1+i/100))X i/100
We can solve for i to get annual rate of interest.
An outside supplier has offered to sell the component for $17. If Damon purchases the component from the outside supplier, the manufacturing facilities would be unused and could be rented out for $10,000. If Damon purchases the component from the supplier instead of manufacturing it, the effect on income would be:
Answer:
C. a $10,000 decrease.
Explanation:
Calculation for what the effect on income would be
First step is to calculate Make
Make=$100,000 + $160,000 + $60,000
Make = $320,000
Second step is to calculate Buy
Buy= $20,000 × $17 = $340,000 – $10,000
Buy = $330,000
Now let calculate the effect on income
Effect on income = $320,000 – $330,00
Effect on income = –$10,000 decrease
Therefore the effect on income would be –$10,000 decrease

Zeitler's Department Stores
Online and In-store Customers:
According to the parallel coordinates plot, online customers are differentiated from in-store customers in the following ways:
(3) Online customers appear to be generally younger, have higher annual income and live further distance away from a store
Explanation:
Younger persons tend to embrace technology more than their older counterparts. Based on this, they also engage on online purchasing of goods and services instead of visiting the traditional brick-and-mortar stores. With online purchase, a customer is in better control because she can search for the best deals from any location.

A purchase of a pair of Italian designer jeans by a resident of Japan would be considered an_____when counting GDP in Japan. As a result, this purchase would be_____Japanese GDP. A purchase of a light pickup truck made in Japan and sold in Canada would be considered an_____for Japanese GDP, which would be_____Japanese GDP.
Answer and Explanation:
In the case when the purchase of Italian jeans made by the Japan resident so it would be considered an import at the time of counting GDP in Japan. So the purchase would be deducted or excluded from Japanese GDP
In the case when the purchase of truck would be made in Japan and then sold it in Canada so it would be considered as an export so the same would be included or added in Japanese GDP.
Pack-and-Go, a new competitor to FedEx and UPS, does intra-city package deliveries in seven major metropolitan areas. The performance of Pack-and-Go is measured by management as: (1) delivery time (relative to budgeted delivery time), (2) on-time delivery rates (defined as agreed-upon delivery date/time plus or minus a specified cushion), and (3) percentage of lost or damaged deliveries. In response to competitive pressures, Pack-and-Go is evaluating an investment in new technology that would improve customer service and delivery quality, particularly in terms of items (2) and (3) above. The annual cost of the new technology, for each of the seven metropolitan areas serviced by Pack-and-Go, is expected to be $80,000. You have gathered the following information regarding delivery performance under both existing operations and after implementing the new technology:
Decision Alernative
After Implementing
Item Current System New Technology
On-time delivery rate 80% 95%
Variable cost per package lost or damaged $30 $30
Allocated fixed cost per package lost or damaged $10 $10
Annual number of packages lost or damaged 300 100
Based on a recent marketing study commissioned by Pack-and-Go, the company estimates that each percentage point increase in the on-time performance rate would lead to an annual revenue increase of $10,000. The average contribution margin ratio for packages delivered by Pack-and-Go is estimated as 40%.
Required:
1. From a financial perspective, should pack-and-Go invest in the new technology?
2. Based on the data collected by Pack-and-Go, the company is fairly confident about the reduction in costs associated with lost or damaged packages. However, because of uncertainties in terms of pricing in the markets in which Pack-and-Go operates, it is less sure about the predicted increase in revenues associated with the implementation of the new technology. What is the break-even increase in annual revenue that would justify the investment in the new technology?
Answer:
Pack-and-Go
1. From a financial perspective, Pack-and-Go should invest in the new technology. It will enjoy a contribution margin of 97.5%.
2. The break-even increase in annual revenue that would justify the investment in the new technology is:
Fixed cost = Contribution
$80,000 = Contribution - $8,000
= $72,000 ($80,000 - $8,000

Increase in the on-time performance rate = 95% - 80% = 15%
Increase in annual Revenue = $10,000 * 15 = $150,000
Savings from lost or damaged packages = 8,000 ($12,000 - $4,000)
Total savings from new technology = $158,000
Annual cost of new technology = (80,000)
Net savings from new technology = $78,000
Contribution margin based on net savings = $78,000/$80,000 * 100 = 97.5%
Average contribution margin = 40%
Kara files her income tax return 64 days after the due date of the return without obtaining an extension from the IRS. Along with the return, she remits a check for $15,400, which is the balance of the tax she owes. Note: Assume 30 days in a month.
Required:
Disregarding the interest element, enter Kara's penalty amount for each, failure to file and failure to pay.
Failure to pay________$
Failure to file________$
Answer:
failure to file :$2079
failure to pay:$231
Explanation:
given data
remits a check = $15,400
days in a month = 30
return = 64 days
solution
computation of Kara's penalty amount for failure to pay
failure to pay will be
failure to pay = 0.5% of tax owed × number of months .......................1
failure to pay = 0.5% × $15400 × 3
failure to pay = $231
and
Computation of Kara's penalty amount for failure to file
failure to file will be
failure to file = (5% of tax owed × number of months or part thereof) - failure to pay penalty .......................2
failure to file = (5% × $15400 × 3) - $231
failure to file = $2310 - $231
failure to file = $2079

To begin with, in the microeconomics theory when it comes to concept of substitutes it refers to the relationship that exists between two goods that are similar in characteristics and therefore that they are probably to substitue one for the other in the market in the case when one's price is higher that the other. That is why that in this case presented, the legalization of the marijuana would obviously lead to a decrease in the demand of the cigarattes due to the fact that now the consumers will start to consume more of the other, letting the cigarette fall. And therefore that the distributors of cigarattes would likely be oppose to the legalization because it will affect their business.
Grimm Manufacturing is trying to determine the equivalent units for conversion costs with 15,000 units of ending work in process at 40% completion when there is a total 45,000 physical units. There are no beginning units in the department. Conversion costs occur evenly throughout the entire production period. What are the equivalent units for conversion costs for the current period
Answer: 36000 units
Explanation:
Ending work in process = 15,000 units
Completion rate = 40%
Total physical units = 45,000
The units completed will be:
= Total Units - Ending working in process
= 45,000 - 15,000
= 30,000
Since only 40% of the ending work in process inventory units has been completed, the completed units will then be:
= 15,000 × 40%
= 15000 × 0.4
= 6,000 units.
Then, the equivalent units for conversion costs for the current period will be:
= 30,000 + 6,000
= 36,000 units.

Assuming that both investments have equal risk and Ericâs investment time horizon is flexible, which of the following investment options will exhibit the lower price?
a. An investment that matures in four years
b. An investment that matures in five years
Answer:
The second option which 5 years to maturity exhibited a lower price of
$523.95
Explanation:
In order to ascertain the option with lower, it is important we determine the price of each investment based on the fact the price of an investment opportunity today is the present value of its future cash flow is the maturity value of $1000 in both cases:
a.
PV=FV/(1+r)^n
PV=price of investment
FV=future value=$1000
r= 13.80%.
n=4 years
PV=$1000/(1+13.80%)^4
PV=$596.25
b.
PV=FV/(1+r)^n
PV=price of investment
FV=future value=$1000
r= 13.80%.
n=5 years
PV=$1000/(1+13.80%)^5

The following information is available for the first year of operations of Engle Inc., a manufacturer of fabricating equipment:
Sales $7,270,000
Gross profit 1,450,000
Indirect labor 330,000
Indirect materials 195,000
Other factory overhead 90,000
Materials purchased 5,100,000
Total manufacturing costs for the period 6,170,000
Materials inventory, end of period 480,000
Using this information, determine the following missing amounts:
A. Cost of goods sold.
B. Direct materials cost.
C. Direct labor cost.
Answer:
A. $5,820,000
B. $4,425,000
C. $1,130,000
Explanation:
A. Cost of goods sold.
Cost of goods sold = Sales - Gross Profit
= $7,270,000 - $1,450,000
= $5,820,000
B. Direct materials cost.
Direct materials cost = Material Purchases - Ending Material Inventory - Indirect Materials
= $5,100,000 - $480,000 - $195,000
= $4,425,000
C. Direct labor cost.
Direct labor cost = Total Manufacturing Cost - Indirect labor - indirect materials - direct materials - other factory overheads
= $6,170,000 - $330,000 - $195,000 - $4,425,000 - $90,000
= $1,130,000
On January 1, Year 1, a contractor began work on a $3.2 million construction contract that is expected to be completed in 3 years. The contractor concludes that it is appropriate to recognize revenue over time using the input method based on costs incurred (cost-to-cost method). At the inception date, the estimated cost of construction was $2.4 million. The following data relate to the actual and expected construction costs:
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3
Costs incurred $720,000 $1,170,000 $1,110,000
Expected future costs $1,680,000 $810,000 $0
