The Japanese car manufacturer Nissan builds a factory in Ohio. A German citizen buys an Apple computer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

a. Since an american buys a sony tv so it would decrease the net exports as we know that net exports would be determined by deducting the imports from exports. Here the sony is an import so if an import is increase the net export would decrease

b. As the american purchase a sony stock share so it would increase the net capital outlow as the financial asset and stock would be shown in the capital account. as the money is given to sony so it would increase the net capital outflow

c. Sine the Japanese car would build a factory in Ohio so it decrease the net capital outflow as it is an imported good

d. As German citizen purchase an apple computer so it would rise the net exports as export would increase

Allure Company manufactures and distributes two products, M and XY. Overhead costs are currently allocated using the number of units produced as the allocation base. The controller has recommended changing to an activity-based costing (ABC) system. She has collected the following information: Activity Cost Driver Amount M XY Production setups Number of setups $82,000 8 12 Material handling Number of parts 48,000 56 24 Packaging costs Number of units 130,000 80,000 50,000 $260,000 What is the total overhead per unit allocated to Product M using activity-based costing (ABC)

Answers

Answer:

Unitary cost= $1.83

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the allocation rates:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Production setups= 82,000/20= $4,100 per setup

Material handling= 48,000/80= $600 per part  

Packaging costs= 130,000/130,000= $1 per unit

Now, we allocate cost to Product M:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Production setups= 4,100*8= 32,800

Material handling= 600*56= 33,600  

Packaging costs= 1*80,000= 80,000

Total= $146,400

Finally, the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 146,400 / 80,000

Unitary cost= $1.83

Suppose Dina gets a sales bonus at her place of work that gives her an extra $800 of disposable income. She chooses to spend $600 and save the remaining $200. From this, you can tell that Dina's marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is , and her marginal propensity to save (MPS) is . Mathematically, it must always be true that: Disposable Income = Therefore, it must also be true that: 1 =

Answers

Answer:

MPC = 0.75

MPS = 0.25

Disposable income = amount spent on consumption + amount saved

Marginal Propensity to Consume + Marginal Propensity to Save = 1

Explanation:

Marginal propensity to consume is the proportion of disposable income that is spent on consumption

Marginal propensity to consume = amount consumed / disposable income

Marginal propensity to save is the proportion of disposable income that is saved

Marginal propensity to save = amount saved / disposable income

MPC + MPS = 1

Disposable income = amount spent on consumption + amount saved

MPC = 600 / 800 = 0.75

MPS = 200 / 800 = 0.25

Market Structure and Market Power
The marginal revenue curve of a firm with market power will always lie below its demand curve because of:_____.
a. the discount effect and the substitution effect.
b. the substitution effect and the income effect.
c. the output effect and the discount effect.
d. the output effect and the substitution effect.

Answers

Answer: c. the output effect and the discount effect.

Explanation:

The output effect is how firms with market power control their production in honest to make profit.

A firm with market farm will have to reduce it's marginal revenue curve to increase sales.

The marginal revenue will therefore be below the Demand curve to show that the marginal revenue has to be reduced for a team to sell more goods.

When a company uses a
allocation rate there is only one base for allocating all overhead costs to products or other cost objects.

Answers

Answer:

company-wide

Explanation:

Using a single company-wide allocation rate implies that only one cost driver (or cost base) is used to allocate all the overhead costs to the product units, batches, departments, or divisions, and other cost objects.  This single rate is the plant-wide or company-wide allocation rate.  It is opposed to the use of multiple allocation rates, where different rates are calculated and used to allocate overhead costs from different cool pools to the units or activities consuming the services.  The company-wide allocation rate is typical with traditional costing method, while the multiple allocation rates are used with ABC costing method.

Hurte-Paroxysm Products, Inc. (HP) of the United States exports computer printers to Brazil, whose currency, the reals (symbol R$) havebeen trading at R$3.40/US$. Exports to Brazil are currently 50,000 printers per year at the reals equivalent of $200 each. A strong rumor exists that the reals will be devalued to R$4.00/$ within two weeks by the Brazilian government. Should the devaluation take place, the exchange rate isexpected to remain unchanged for the foreseeable future. Based on this forecast, HP Products may either (1) maintain the same realprice and sell for fewer dollars, in which case Brazilian volume will not change, or (2) maintain the same dollar price, raise the realprice in Brazil to compensate for the devaluation, and experience a 20% drop in volume. Direct costs in the U.S. are 60% of the U.S. sales price.

                                           Alternative 1                      Alternative 2

                             Reduce Price to $170     Maintain Price of $200

Gross profit                        $2,500,000               $3,200,000

Reduction in Gross Profit   $1,500,000                  $800,000

b. (2) maintain the same dollar price of $200, raise the real price in Brazil (to R$800 from R$680)to compensate for the devaluation, and experience a 20% drop in volume.

c. If HP maintains the same real price and same unit volume, the firm's gross profits will be $2,500,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Exchange rate = R$3.40/US$

Current exports of printers per year to Brazil = 50,000

US unit price of printer in dollars = $200

Brazil unit price of printer in R$ equivalent = R$680 ($200 * R$3.40)

Unit price of printer in R$ when reals is devalued = R$800 ($200 * R$4.00)

The reduced dollar price with devaluation, when real price is maintained = $170 (R$680/R$4.00)

Before Devaluation of Brazil's Real (R$):

Sales volume            50,000

Sales revenue $10,000,000 (50,000 * $200)

Direct costs         6,000,000 (50,000 * $120)

Gross profit       $4,000,000

                              Alternative 1                  Alternative 2

                       Reduce Price to $170     Maintain Price at $200

Sales volume                50,000                      40,000 (50,000 * 80%)

Sales revenue      $8,500,000               $8,000,000 ($200 * 40,000)

Direct costs            6,000,000                  4,800,000 ($120 * 40,000)

Gross profit         $2,500,000                $3,200,000 ($80 * 40,000)

Direct costs = $6m ($120 * 50,000)        = $4.8m ($120 * 40,000)

Lancelot Corporation manufactures tennis gear and uses budgeted machine-hours to allocate variable manufacturing overhead. The following information relates to the company's manufacturing overhead data: Budgeted output units 8,000 units Budgeted machine-hours 24,000 hours Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead costs for 8,000 units $288,000 Actual output units produced 8,500 units Actual machine-hours used 23,750 hours Actual variable manufacturing overhead costs $250,000 What is the flexible-budget amount for variable manufacturing overhead

Answers

Answer:

$56,000 Favorable

Explanation:

The computation of the flexible-budget amount for variable manufacturing overhead is shown below

The Budgeted machine hours per unit os

= 24,000 ÷ 8,000

= 3

The Budgeted machine hours allowed for 8,500 units is

= 8,500 × 3

= 25,500

Now the Budgeted variable overhead rate per machine hour is

= $288,000 ÷ 24,000

= $12.00

Now

Flexible-budget amount is

= 25,500 × $12.00

= $306,000

So, the Flexible-budget variance is

= $250,000 - $306,000

= $56,000 Favorable

Explanation:

A product should be shut down if doing so would make the savings in fixed costs associated with the product to exceed the lost contribution. Other wise , the product should remain.

In a shut down decision , the following relevant cash flows should be considered:

1. Lost contribution from the product to be shut down

2. Savings in fixed directly attributable to the product under consideration.

                                                                                          $

Lost contribution from products 2  

(15-10)× 20,000                                                            (100,000)

Savings in direct fixed cos                                           75,000

Net loss from the drop of product 2                          (25,000)

Overall operating profit will decrease by $25,000

Mark up is the proportion of cost as profit

Price = cost + (mark-up %×  cost

Price = 25 + (30%× 25) = 32.5

Explanation:

The Gecko Company and the Gordon Company are two firms whose business risk is the same but that have different dividend policies. Gecko pays no dividend, whereas Gordon has an expected dividend yield of 6 percent. Suppose the capital gains tax rate is zero, whereas the income tax rate is 40 percent. Gecko has an expected earnings growth rate of 10 percent annually, and its stock price is expected to grow at this same rate.

Required:
If the aftertax expected returns on the two stocks are equal (because they are in the same risk class), what is the pretax required return on Gordon’s stock?

Answers

Answer:

12.4%

Explanation:

After-Tax Return = Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) + Dividend Yield*(1-Tax Rate)

Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) = After-Tax Return - Dividend Yield*(1-Tax Rate)

Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) = 10 - 6*(1-40%)

Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) = 6.4%

Pre-Tax Return = Capital Gains Growth Rate (g) + Dividend Yield

Pre-Tax Return = 6.4% + 6%

Pre-Tax Return = 12.4%

Hence, the pretax required return on Gordon’s stock is 12.4%

You run a coffee shop where demand is constant week to week. You use 10 bags of roasted coffee each week. Currently, you order whole roasted coffee beans from an out-of-town supplier who charges $20 per bag and a fixed cost of $100 per delivery. Storage for each bag per month is estimated at $1. Assume your coffee shop operates for 52 weeks and 12 months per year. Assume there are no lead times.

Required:
a. Under these costs, what is the optimal order size (in bags)?
b. How often (in months) do I place an order under my solution to part a?
c. What are my annual total costs (including purchasing costs) under my solution to part a?

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Under these costs, what is the optimal order size (in bags)?

Periods per year = 52 weeks.

Weekly demand = 10bags

Annual demand, D = 10 × 52 = 520

Set up cost, S = $100

Item cost = $20.00

Holding cost per year, H= $12.00

We'll then calculate the economic order quantity, Q which will be:

= ✓2×S×D/H

= ✓(2×100×520/12

= ✓104000/12

= ✓8667

= 93

Optimal order size = 93 bags

b. How often (in months) do I place an order under my solution to part a?

Time between orders will be:

= Period per year / Orders per year

= 12 / 5.59

= 2.15

c. What are my annual total costs (including purchasing costs) under my solution to part a?

Annual total cost will be:

= Holding cost + Order cost + Purchase cost

= $11,517.14

Note that:

Orders per year = D/Q = 520/93 = 5.59

What are the weighted-average accumulated expenditures?

Answers

Answer:

$8,395,833

Explanation:

Calculation to determine What are the weighted-average accumulated expenditures

Weighted-average accumulated expenditures

=($6,400,000 × 10/12) + ($5,250,000 × 7/12) + ($8,650,000 × 0/12)

Weighted-average accumulated expenditures=$5,333,333+$3,062,500+0

Weighted-average accumulated expenditures=$8,395,833

Therefore the weighted-average accumulated expenditures will be $8,395,833

A company must decide between scrapping or reworking units that do not pass inspection. The company has 22,000 defective units that cost $6 per unit to manufacture. The units can be sold as is for $2.00 each, or they can be reworked for $4.50 each and then sold for the full price of $8.50 each. If the units are sold as is, the company will be able to build 22,000 replacement units at a cost of $6 each, and sell them at the full price of $8.50 each.
What is the incremental income from selling the units as scrap and reworking and selling the units? Should the company sell the units as scrap or rework them? (Deductible amounts should be indicated with a minus sign.)

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Sell as scrap:

Sales of scrap units:

= 22000 × $2.00

= $44,000

Rework:

Sale of reworked unit = 22000 × $8.50 = $187,000

- Cost to rework unit = 22000 × $4.50 = $99,000

- Opportunity cost of not making new unit = 22000 × ($8.50 - $6) = $45000

Incremental income(loss) = $33000

Since the incremental Income from scrap is more than reworking, then it implies that the company should sell as scrap.

Answer:

A. Sales as scrap $44,000

Rework $33,000

B. The company should sell as scrap

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine the incremental income from selling the units as scrap and reworking and selling the units

SALES AS SCRAP REWORK

Sales of scrap units $44,000 $0

( 22000 × $2.00)

Sale of reworked unit $0 $187,000

( 22000 × $8.50 )

Less Cost to rework unit $0 ($99,000)

(22000 × $4.50)

Less Opportunity cost of not making new unit

$0 ($55,000)

[22000 × ($8.50 - $6)]

Incremental income(loss) $44,000 $33,000

Therefore the incremental income from selling the units as scrap is $44,000 and reworking and selling the units is $33,000

B. Based on the above calculation the company should sell as SCRAP because the incremental income of SALES AS SCRAP is higher than that of rework.

It takes courage to kill a project, but sometimes you know it has to be done. Some common symptoms of a failing project are ill-defined initial requirements, constant changes in scope, excessive changes in resources and personnel, and extreme stress/tension over anticipated changes. Yet, a project may have followed the "book" and done everything right, but still need to be terminated. This was the case with a project in the U.K. where the client was highly committed to the project, contributing time, resources, and prompt decisions. The scope was clear, completion criteria agreed upon, the budget and timeframe acceptable to all. Early on, however, an unavoidable scope change had to be made, requiring a 20 percent increase in time and a 10 percent increase in cost, agreed to by the client. As the project approached the end of the fi rst phase, it was clear that the quality and schedule were both deteriorating, as indicated in progress reports to both the client and senior management. A quick review showed that the results were not going to be acceptable. With the agreement of the PM, an outside Expert was called in to review the effort to date and make a recommendation. Then a joint meeting was held with the Expert, the PM, the Program Manager, and the primary contractor where it was decided that the best thing to do was to work together to complete phase one and then terminate the project, with a clean handover to another team to tackle phase two. Although disappointing to everyone, the close and frequent communications of both progress and concerns throughout the project with upper management and the client, offered in timely, digestible amounts, reduced their expectations and protected the client from a surprise at the end. Honest, consistent communication throughout the project life cycle resulted in improved trust, integrity, and confi dence in the vendor and their team.

Required:
a. What are your thoughts about doing everything right and the project still failing?
b. Does the admonition "Never surprise the boss!" now make more sense? Why?
c. Do you think the scope change at the beginning was the problem here, or was there going to be a problem anyway?

Answers

Solution :

a). There are several methodologies for the projects that are followed by the different companies. The successful of any project depends upon the far sightedness of the project manager and the ability of him to the execute the project in a proper order. One of the key factors that makes a project complete is the behavior of the people.

The vendors incur some excessive or some unnecessary costs to the project of they are not properly managed. The duty of the project manager is to foresee the scope of change if there is any.

If there were some additional cost and additional time for the completion of the project, then it means that it will delay the benefits of the project to others and hence attracts lower return of investments. Even though everything went according to the papers or the book, there is a lack of dedication on the project manager who believed and trusted the vendor too much.

b). A manager needs complete and clear information for an effective decision making. In any project, surprises gives a lesser amount of time and also less information related tot he project to resolve any issues that occurs at any time. It also disappoints the management that leads to spur of moment decision. So, 'Never surprise he Boss' makes a complete sentence.

c). The major factor why the project failed is the changed in the scope. The objectives are poorly cited and the timelines went overhead including the cost of the project. Too much trust of the project manager on the vendor  also lead to the schedule and the quality issues.

j. Internal development costs for patent
k. Purchased copyright
l. Initial training costs for startup of new business

Answers

Answer:

Intangible Assets:

c. Purchased patent  

f. Purchase of a franchise    

k. Purchased copyright

Explanation:

Intangible assets are financial resources that have no physical properties.  They must be acquired by the entity as a result of past events to be recognized.  Examples of intangible assets are Brands, Goodwill, Intellectual properties (e.g. Trade Secrets, Patents, Trademark, and Copyrights), Licensing rights, Customer lists, and qualified R&D.  

They are usually amortized over their estimated useful life.  Annually, the entity must carry out impairment tests to determine if there is an impairment loss, especially for indefinite intangible assets which are not amortized.

The legal costs are not intangible assets on their own but can be capitalized.  This means that they can be included in the affected intangible assets.
