Answer:
The answer is $650
Explanation:
Net income = $260
Total sales = $1,160
Costs = $650
Depreciation = $110
Earnings before Interest and tax(EBIT) =
Total sales - Cost - depreciation
$1,160 - $650 - $110
= $400
Tax =[260 ÷ (1 - 0.35)] - 260
$400 - $260
$140
Operating cash flow is therefore,
Earnings before Interest and tax(EBIT) + depreciation + tax
$400 + $110 + $140
= $650

Explanation:
A firm sells peanuts in a perfectly competitive market. Upon increasing production output from 60 packages to 75 packages, the total revenue increased from $300 to $375. What was the marginal revenue of this increase in production?
Answer:
$75
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
The price per unit = $300 / 60 = $5
The marginal revenue for one unit is $5
Production increased by 15 units, so marginal revenue increased by $5 × 15 = $75

In some cases, analysts notice that groups of similar investors tend to flock to stocks that have dividend policies consistent with their financial needs. This circumstance is an illustration of:
Answer:
the clientele effect
Explanation:
This scenario best illustrates the concept/idea known as the clientele effect. This is the idea that a set of investors that are attracted to specific security/asset will affect the price of it when policies or circumstances change. This is mainly due to the fact that as a group with lots of buying power, purchasing those assets removes circulating supply from that asset which causes the price to go up, meaning if things change they can also sell which will cause prices to drop.
A labor contract provides for a first-year wage of $15 per hour, and specifies that the real wage will rise by 2 percent in the second year of the contract and by another 2 percent in the third year. The CPI is 1.00 in the first year, 1.09 in the second year, and 1.15 in the third year. What dollar wage must be paid in the third year
Answer:
$17.9469
Explanation:
Calculation for what dollar wage must be paid in the third year
Since the first year is tend to be the base year in which the real wage and nominal wage are both $15 per hour in that year.
The real wage is suppose to increase by 2 percent in the second year which means that the real wage in year two will be $15.30 ($15 * 1.02) per hour.
In a situation where the real wage was supposed to also increase by 2 percent in the third year, this means that the real wage in year three will be $15.606 ($15.3 * 1.02) per hour.
Therefore In order for us to find the nominal wage in third year , we have to index the real wage in order for it to adjust for inflation. Thus the nominal wage in third year will be $17.9469($15.606 * 1.15).
Therefore what dollar wage must be paid in the third year will be $17.9469
The dollar wage to be paid in the third year based on the labor contract is $17.95 per hour.
Data and Calculations:First-year wage per hour = $15
Increase in real wage in the second year = 2%
Increase in real wage in the third year = 2%
First year's CPI = 1.00
Second year's CPI = 1.09
Third year's CPI = 1.15
What is CPI?The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the weighted average prices of a basket of consumer goods and services in the United States, considering its general economic inflation. The labor contract raises the real wage by 2% in the second and third years. The CPI of year three is applied in computing the real wage to account for the effect of inflation.
Thus, the dollar wage that must be paid in the third year based on the labor contract is $17.95 per hour ($15 x 1.02 x 1.02 x 1.15).

Suppose that XTel currently is selling at $40 per share. You buy 500 shares using $15,000 of your own money, borrowing the remainder of the purchase price from your broker. The rate on the margin loan is 8%. a. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to (a) $44; (b) $40; (c) $36? (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Explanation:
a. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to $44?
Total investment will be:
= 500 shares x $40 = $20,000
The Initial Net Worth =$15,000
Borrowed Amount = $20,000 - $15,000 = $5,000
New Net worth will be:
= $44 x 500 shares - 5000
= $22,000 - $5000
= $17,000
Percentage increase will be:
= [($17,000 - $15,000)/$15,000] × 100
= $2000/$15000 × 100
= 13.33%
b. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to $40?
Total investment will be:
= 500 shares x $40 = $20,000
The Initial Net Worth =$15,000
Borrowed Amount = $20,000 - $15,000 = $5,000
New Net worth will be:
= $40 x 500 shares - 5000
= $20,000 - $5000
= $15,000
Percentage increase will be:
= [($15,000 - $15,000)/$15,000] × 100
= 0/$15000 × 100
= 0
c. What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to $36?
Total investment will be:
= 500 shares x $40 = $20,000
The Initial Net Worth =$15,000
Borrowed Amount = $20,000 - $15,000 = $5,000
New Net worth will be:
= $36 x 500 shares - 5000
= $18,000 - $5000
= $13,000
Percentage increase will be:
= [($13,000 - $15,000)/$15,000] × 100
= -$2000/$15000 × 100
= -13.33%
Determine the market price that Firm A receives for its product. Assume the price is constant because the firm is a price taker in a perfectly competitive market.
Answer: $28
Explanation:
In a Perfectly Competitive Market, firms are price takers in that the price is set by the market. As a result, the Price is equal to the Average Revenue as well as the Marginal Revenue. P = AR = MR
In the table, the Marginal Revenue (increase in revenue when an additional unit is sold) is $28 for all quantities and the Average Revenue at the fifth (and all units) is;
= 140/5
= $28
With both the Average and Marginal Revenues being $28, the price that Firm A receives is $28 as well.

10. Receive cash from customers in (4) above. Increase + Decrease = No effect + No effect
11. Pay for supplies purchased in (2) above. Decrease = Decrease + No effect
Explanation:
The accounting equation states that Assets are equal to Liabilities Plus Equity. This equation remains true for every business transaction, which affects two accounts on either side of the equation. This keeps the equation in equilibrium or balance with each given transaction. It is from this equation that the double entry system of accounting was developed and is based.
The impact whether the transaction increases, decreases, or has no effect on assets, liabilities, and stockholders' equity is explained below:
1. Issue common stock in exchange for cash. Increase= No effect + Increase
2. Purchase business supplies on account. Increase = Increase + No effect
3. Pay for legal services for the current month. Decrease = No effect + Decrease
4. Provide services to customers on account. Increase = No effect + Increase

Equipment maintenance costs for manufacturing explosion-proof pressure switches are projected to be $125,000 in year 1 and increase by 4% each year through year 5. What is the equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually
Answer:
The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432
Explanation:
In order to calculate the equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually we would have to calculate the following formula:
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs= P(i(1+i)∧n/(1+i)∧n-1
The rate of interest i would be as follows:
rate of interest i=(1+10%/2)-1
rate of interest i=0.1025*100
rate of interest i=10.25%
The present value P would be calculated as follows:
present value P=$125,000(1-(1+1/100)∧5 (1+10.25/100)∧-5/(10.25/100-1/100)
present value P=$125,000*3.84
present value P=$480,000
Therefore,
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*(10.25/100 (1+10.25/100)∧5/(1+10.25/100)∧5-1)
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$480,000*0.2654
equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs=$127,432
The equivalent uniform annual worth of the maintenance costs at an interest rate of 10% per year, compounded semiannually is $127,432

Required:
a. Calculate the weighted-average cost.
b. Calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, gross profit under each of the following methods.
1. LIFO
2. FIFO
3. Avergae Cost
Answer:
Bridgeport Corp.
a. Weighted-average cost:
Weighted average cost = Cost of goods available for sale = $9,287
b. Ending inventory, cost of goods sold, gross profit under:
1. LIFO:
a) Ending Inventory = 75 units
Oct. 1 Beginning inventory 60 at $24 = $1,440
Oct. 9 Purchase 15 at $26 = 390
Total 75 = $1,830
b) Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for sale minus the ending inventory
= $9,287 - $1,830
= $7,457
c) Gross profit = Sales minus Cost of goods sold
= $11,015 - $7,457
= $3,558
2. FIFO:
a) Ending Inventory = 75 units
Oct. 17 Purchase 4 at $27 = $108
Oct. 25 Purchase 71 at $29 = 2,059
Ending Inventory 75 $2,167
b) Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for minus Ending Inventory
= $9,287 - $2,167
= $7,120
c) Gross profit = Sales minus Cost of goods sold
= $11,015 - $7,120
= $3,895
3. Average Cost:
a) Ending Inventory = 75 units
= Ending Inventory units x Weighted-Average cost
= 75 x $26.53 = $1,989.75
b) Cost of goods sold = units sold x weighted-average cost
= 275 x $26.53
= $7,295.75
c) Gross profit = Sales minus Cost of goods sold
= $11,015 - $7,295.75
= $3,719.25

a) Data and calculations:
Date Description Units Unit Cost Selling Price Total
Oct. 1 Beginning inventory 60 $24 $1,440
Oct. 9 Purchase 125 26 3,250
Oct. 11 Sale (107) $37 $3,959
Oct. 17 Purchase 94 27 2,538
Oct. 22 Sale (64) 42 2,688
Oct. 25 Purchase 71 29 2,059
Oct. 29 Sale (104) 42 4,368
Total 350 (275) $9,287 $11,015
Ending inventory in units = 350 - 275 = 75
Weighted average cost = $9,287
Weighted average cost per unit = $9,287/350 = $26.53
b) The LIFO is the Last-in, First-Out method of inventory costing which assumes that units bought last are the units to be sold first.
c) FIFO means the First-in, First-Out method of inventory costing. This takes the assumption that units bought first are the units to be sold first in that chronological order.
d) Weighted average method of inventory costing takes the weighted average cost and uses this to value the ending inventory and the cost of goods sold.
e) The periodic inventory system does not alter the value of inventory until at the end of the accounting period when the inventory count is done, reconciled, and valued.
Scampini Technologies is expected to generate $125 million in free cash flow next year, and FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 3% per year indefinitely. Scampini has no debt or preferred stock, and its WACC is 12%. If Scampini has 65 million shares of stock outstanding, what is the stock's value per share
Answer:
$21.37
Explanation:
Firm value = FCF1 / (WACC – g)
Firm value = $125,000,000/(0.12 – 0.03)
Firm value = $1,388,888,888.89
Equity value per share = Equity value / Shares outstanding
Equity value per share = $1,388,888,888.89 / 65,000,000
Equity value per share = $21.37
Rollins Corporation is estimating its WACC. Its target capital structure is 20 percent debt, 20 percent preferred stock, and 60 percent common equity. Its bonds have a 12 percent coupon, paid semiannually, a current maturity of 20 years, and sell for $1,000. The firm could sell, at par, $100 preferred stock which pays a 12 percent annual dividend, but flotation costs of 5 percent would be incurred. Rollins' beta is 1.2, the risk-free rate is 10 percent, and the market risk premium is 5 percent. Rollins is a constant-growth firm which just paid a dividend of $2.00, sells for $27.00 per share, and has a growth rate of 8 percent. The firm's policy is to use a risk premium of 4 percentage points when using the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium method to find rs. The firm's marginal tax rate is 40 percent. What is Rollins' cost of preferred stock? Select one: a. 10.0% b. 11.0% c. 12.0% d. 12.6% e. 13.2%
Answer:
d. 12.6%
Explanation:
Rollins Corporation will receive $100 - ($100 x 5% flotation costs) = $100 - $5 = $95 net for each preferred stock issued
Since it will have to pay $12 on preferred dividends, the cost of preferred stocks = preferred dividend per preferred stock / net amount received per preferred stock = $12 / $95 = 0.1263 = 12.6%
Flotation costs are costs that a corporation incurs when issuing new stocks or bonds, and they include legal fees, underwriting fees, etc.

A customer opens a margin account by purchasing 100 shares of ABC at $60 per share, depositing the 50% Regulation T requirement. The stock rises to $80 per share on the next day and then falls to $60 per share on the day after. The account will now show:
Answer:
Account Balance in margin account:
Investment = $6,000 (100 x $60)
The customer's account will first increase with an unrealized gain of $2,000 ($80 - 60 x 100) on the next day. It will then decrease with an unrealized loss of $2,000 ($80 - 60 x 100) on the day after. This cancels the earlier unrealized gain.
Explanation:
The customer's investment will now show a balance of $6,000 with a contra account showing a debt of $3,000 for the balance of the Regulation T margin account. According to investopedia, "A margin account is a brokerage account in which the broker lends the customer cash to purchase stocks or other financial products. The loan in the account is collateralized by the securities purchased and cash, and comes with a periodic interest rate."

Preparation of te entry for the receipt of interest on January 1, 2015 for Brenner Company
Since we were told that On January 1, 2014, Brenner Company was said to have purchased at a face value, the amount of $1,000 with 6% bond that pays the interest in January 1 this means we have to record the transaction by Debiting Cash with $30 and Crediting Interest revenue with the same amount. The $30 is been calculated as:
1,000 *.06 *1/2 =$30
Therefore the entry for the receipt of interest on January 1, 2015 is:

Explain how you would determine the company’s contribution margin and contribution margin percent. In your initial post include the following:
a. Identify which specific variables should be included in the calculation.
b. Illustrate your explanation by calculating the contribution margin and contribution margin percent using hypothetical values.
c. Explain what your calculated results tell you about the company’s sales and cost structure
Answer:
a. Identify which specific variables should be included in the calculation.
In order to calculate contribution margin and contribution margin percentage we need the following:
total net sales revenue = total sales - sales discounts - sales returns and allowancestotal variable costsb. Illustrate your explanation by calculating the contribution margin and contribution margin percent using hypothetical values.
total net sales = $1,000,000
total variable costs = $750,000
contribution margin = $1,000,000 - $750,000 = $250,000
contribution margin % = $250,000 / $1,000,000 = 25%
c. Explain what your calculated results tell you about the company’s sales and cost structure
The higher the contribution margin, the more money the company has to cover fixed costs and generate profit. Generally the higher the contribution margin, the better.
In this case, a 25% contribution margin would be considered low, but it all depends on the fixed costs of the company. The larger the fixed costs, the more a company needs to have high contribution margins.

Mannisto, Inc., uses the FIFO inventory cost flow assumption. In a year of rising costs and prices, the firm reported net income of $244,087 and average assets of $1,550,550. If Mannisto had used the LIFO cost flow assumption in the same year, its cost of goods sold would have been $44,110 more than under FIFO, and its average assets would have been $40,630 less than under FIFO.
a) Calculate the firm's ROA under each cost flow assumption.
b) Suppose that two years later costs and prices were falling. Under FIFO, net income and average assets were $288,567 and $1,880,970, respectively. If LIFO had been used through the years, inventory values would have been $45,690 less than under FIFO, and current year cost of goods sold would have been $22,660 less than under FIFO. Calculate the firm's ROA under each cost flow assumption.
Answer and Explanation:
a. The solution of return on assets under each cost flow is described below:-
Return on assets under FIFO = Net income ÷ Average total assets
= $244,087 ÷ $1,550,550
= 15.7%
Return on assets under LIFO = Net income ÷ Average total assets
= ($244,087 - $44,110) ÷ ($1,550,550 - $40,630)
= $199,977 ÷ $1,509,920
= 13.2%
b. The computation of return on assets under each cost flow is shown below:-
Return on assets under FIFO = Net income ÷ Average total assets
= $288,567 ÷ $1,880,970
= 15.3%
Return on assets under LIFO = Net income ÷ Average total assets
= ($288,567 + $22,660) ÷ ($1,880,970 - $45,690)
= $311,227 ÷ $1,835,280
= 17%
