Janko Wellspring Inc. has a pump with a book value of $24,000 and a four-year remaining life. A new, more efficient pump, is available at a cost of $45,000. Janko can also receive $8,000 for trading in the old pump. The new pump will reduce variable costs by $10,000 per year over its four-year life. Should the pump be replaced?A. No, because the company will be $3,000 worse off in total.B. Yes, because income will increase by $3,000 per year.C. No, because income will decrease by $10,000 per year.D. No, Janko will record a loss of $16,000 if they replace the pump.E. Yes, because income will increase by $3,000 in total.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: E. Yes, because income will increase by $3,000 in total.

Explanation:

If the Incremental benefit is positive then the pump should be replaced.

Incremental Benefit = Cost saving + cash received for trading in old pump - Cost of new pump

= (10,000 * 4) + 8,000 - 45,000

= $3,000

Over the four years, the income from the decision to replace the old pump will yield an income of $3,000.

Jessica and Robert have two young children. They have $7,000 of qualified child care expenses and an AGI of $22,000 in 2019. What is their allowable child and dependent care credit considering their pre-credit tax liability

Answers

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

The computation of the their allowable child and dependent care credit is shown below:

In the case when the income is below $35,000 than full 35% would be allowed

But the qualified child expense would be limited to $6,000

So, here the amount would be

= $6,000 × 35%

= $1,860

Already there is a pre credit tax liability so $0 should be considered as it would not received any credit

The following assets in Jack’s business were sold in 2020: Asset Holding Period Gain/(Loss) Office equipment 6 years $1,100 Automobile 8 months ($ 800) ABC stock (capital asset) 2 years $1,400 ​ Office equipment, purchased for $8,000, had a zero adjusted basis.

As a result of a thorough physical inventory, Coronado Company determined that it had inventory worth $321000 at December 31, 2020. This count did not take into consideration the following facts: Walker Consignment currently has goods worth $46300 on its sales floor that belong to Coronado but are being sold on consignment by Walker. The selling price of these goods is $75000. Coronado purchased $21100 of goods that were shipped on December 27, FOB destination, that will be received by Coronado on January 3. Determine the correct amount of inventory that Coronado should report.

Answers

Answer:

The correct cost of inventory that Coronado should report is $367300

Explanation:

The goods sent on consignment still belong to the consignor until they are sold off by the consignee. So, the consignor should add the unsold consignment goods in its inventory. Thus we will add the cost of goods sent on consignment to the value of inventory.

Value of inventory = 321000 + 46300 = $367300

The goods purchased by Coronado on 27 December with FOB destination should not be added to the cost of inventory as with FOB destination terms, the goods do not belong to the buyer until they are delivered to their destination by the seller.

Thus, the correct cost of inventory that Coronado should report is $367300

Answer:

1.

Present value = $65500.60053 rounded off to $65500.60

2.

Present value = $76009.84174 rounded off to $76009.84

4.

PV of perpetuity = $76666.66667 rounded off to $76666.67

Explanation:

The payments from the investment can be classified as being an ordinary annuity as the payments made by the investment offer are of constant amount and occur at the end of the period, occur after equal intervals of time and are for a defined and finite time period except for the payments made in case of requirement 4. The formula to calculate the present value of annuity that will be used in requirement 1, 2 and 3 is attached.

1.

Present value = 9200 * [(1 - (1 + 0.12)^-17)  /  0.12]

Present value = $65500.60053 rounded off to $65500.60

2.

Present value = 9200 * [(1 - (1 + 0.12)^-42)  /  0.12]

Present value = $76009.84174 rounded off to $76009.84

3.

Present value = 9200 * [(1 - (1 + 0.12)^-77)  /  0.12]

Present value = $76654.22671 rounded off to $76654.23

4.

If the payments occur for an infinite period of time, they can be classified as a perpetuity.

The formula to calculate the present value of perpetuity is as follows,

PV of perpetuity = Cash Flow / r

Where,

r is the required rate of return or discount rate

PV of perpetuity = 9200 / 0.12

PV of perpetuity = $76666.66667 rounded off to $76666.67

Answers

Answer:

1. Ending inventory = $2,408; Cost of goods sold = $16,837; Sales revenue = $22,770; and Gross profit = $5,933.

2. Ending inventory = $2,094; Cost of goods sold = $17,151; Sales revenue = $22,770; and Gross profit = $5,619.

3. Ending inventory = $2,293; Cost of goods sold = $16,952; Sales revenue = $22,770; and Gross profit = $5,818.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore presented before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question.

Explanation to the answer is now presented as follows:

1. Using FIFO, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.

Note: See part 1 of the attached excel for the calculation of calculation of Cost of goods available for sale, Cost of goods sold, and Ending inventory using FIFO.

First In, First Out (FIFO) refers to an inventory accounting method in which inventory items purchased first are sold first, while the one that are purchased last are sold last.

In the attached excel file, since the inventory purchased on Oct. 6 is purchased last, the number of unit of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 sold is calculated by deducting the sum of the beginning inventory and inventory purchased before Oct. 6 from the total inventory sold as follows:

Number of unit of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 that are sold = Number of units sold - (Beginning inventory + Apr. 7 Purchases + Jul. 16 Purchases) = 414 - (45 + 125 + 195) = 49

Therefore, the number of ending inventory is obtained as follows:

Number of unit of ending inventory = Number of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 - Number of inventory purchased on Oct. 6 sold = 105 – 49 = 56

Sales revenue = Number of unit units of inventory sold for the entire year * Selling price per unit = 414 * $55 = $22,770

From the attached excel file, we have:

Cost of goods sold = $16,837

Ending inventory = $2,408

Therefore, we have:

Gross profit = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $22,770 - $16,837 = $5,933

2. Using LIFO, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.

Note: See part 2 of the attached excel for the calculation of calculation of Cost of goods available for sale, Cost of goods sold, and Ending inventory using LIFO.

Last In, First Out (LIFO) refers to an inventory accounting method in which inventory items purchased last are sold first, while the one that are purchased first are sold last.

In the attached excel file, the number of unit of inventory purchased on April 7 that are sold and the ones remaining that are NOT sold that forms part of ending inventory are calculated as follows:

Number of unit of inventory purchased on April 7 that are sold = 414 – (195 + 105) = 114

Number of unit of inventory purchased on April 7 that are NOT sold = Number of unit of inventory purchased on April 7 - Number of unit of inventory purchased on April 7 that are sold = 125 – 114 = 11

Sales revenue = Number of unit units of inventory sold for the entire year * Selling price per unit = 414 * $55 = $22,770

From the attached excel file, we have:

Cost of goods sold = $17,151

Ending inventory = $2,094

Therefore, we have:

Gross profit = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $22,770 - $17,151 = $5,619

3. Using weighted average cost, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit. (Round "Average Cost per unit" to 4 decimal places and all other answers to the nearest whole number.)

Note: See part 3 of the attached excel for the calculation of calculation of Cost of goods available for sale, Cost of goods sold, and Ending inventory using weighted average cost.

Weighted average cost method refers to a method of costing inventory in which the total cost of the goods available for sale is divided by the total number of units available for sales in order to obtain weighted average cost per unit.

In the attached excel file, weighted average cost per unit is therefore calculated and rounded to 4 decimal places as follows:

Weighted average cost per unit = $19,245 / 470 = $40.9468

Number of unit of ending inventory = Total number of units available for sales – Number of unit sold = 470 – 414 = 56

Sales revenue = Number of unit units of inventory sold for the entire year * Selling price per unit = 414 * $55 = $22,770

From the attached excel file, we have:

Cost of goods sold = $16,952

Ending inventory = $2,293

Therefore, we have:

Gross profit = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold = $22,770 - $16,952 = $5,818

Purchase price to acquire Mesa Herald Market value of Mesa Herald's assets Less: Market value of Mesa Herald's liabilities Less: Market value of Mesa Herald's net assets

Answers

Full question attached

Answer and Explanation:

A. Given that Thrifty Nickels Assets fair value and liabilities are given by $100000 and $70000 respectively(we do not use the book value in calculating goodwill here) and Acquisition value is $230000

Goodwill = purchase price -net assets

Since we know purchase price =$230000

We calculate net assets= total assets -total liabilities

Total assets =$100000

Total liabilities =$70000

Net assets=$100000-$70000=$30000

We substitute in goodwill formula

Goodwill=$230000-$30000=$200000

Therefore goodwill =$200000

B. We journalize entries for the acquisition in Deca's books as follows :

Debit Assets $100000

Debit Goodwill $200000

Credit liabilities $70000

Credit cash $230000

We debit assets since it received and increased by $100000,we debit goodwill since it also received and increased by $200000. We credit liabilities since it also increased by $70000 from the acquisition (liabilities accounts are credited). Cash was spent and therefore is credited since it reduced by $230000

Pauley Company needs to determine a markup for a new product. Pauley expects to sell 22,000 units and wants a target profit of $16 per unit. Additional information is as follows: Variable product cost per unit $ 18 Variable administrative cost per unit 13 Total fixed overhead 20,500 Total fixed administrative 36,700 Using the variable cost method, what markup percentage to variable cost should be used

Answers

Answer:

variable markup % = 60%

Explanation:

total units sold 22,000

total costs associated with selling the 22,000 units:

variable production costs $18 x 22,000 = $396,000

variable S&A costs $13 x 22,000 = $286,000

fixed overhead = $20,500

fixed S&A = $36,700

total costs = $739,200

total cost per unit = $33.60

selling price = $33.60 + $16 = $49.60

markup percentage = [(sales price - unit cost) / unit cost] x 100

the total markup % = [49.60 - 33.60) / 33.60] x 100 = 47.62%

but since we are going to calculate the markup percentage solely based on variable costs, then:

variable cost per unit = $31

selling price = $49.60

the variable markup % = [49.60 - 31) / 31] x 100 = 60%

A year after buying her car, Anita has been offered a job in Europe. Her car loan is for $27,000 at a 6% nominal interest rate for 48 months. If she can sell the car for $20,000, how much does she get to keep after paying off the loan

Answers

Answer:

Instead of keeping a balance she would rather need to pay the remaining mortgage balance of $843.51

Explanation:

The first task here is to compute the monthly payment of the car loan using the formula below:

PMT=P(r/n)/1-(1+r/n)^(-nt)

P=loan amount= $27,000  

r=interest rate=6 %

n=number of monthly payments in a year=12

t= duration of loan=4 years ( 48/12)

PMT=27000*(6%/12)/(1-(1+6%/12)^(-4*12)

PMT=27000*(6%/12)/(1-(1+6%/12)^(-48)

PMT=27000*(6%/12)/(1-(1.005)^-48

PMT=135  /(1-0.787098411  )

PMT=634.10  

The balance of the loan after one year is the present value of the remaining 36 monthly payments as computed thus:

PV=monthly payment*(1-(1+r)^-n/r

monthly payment=634.10  

r=monthly interest rate=6%/12=0.5%

n=number of monthly payments left=36

PV=634.10*(1-(1+0.5%)^-36/0.5%

PV=634.10*(1-0.835644919 )/0.5%

pv=$20,843.51  

balance left after paying the loan=$20,000-$20,843.51  =-$843.51

An investor plans to divide $200,000 between two investments. The first yields a certain profit of 10%, whereas the second yields a profit with expected value 18% and standard deviation 6%. If the investor divides the money equally between these two investments, find the mean and standard deviation of the total profit.

Answers

Answer:

mean = 14%; standard deviation = 3%

Explanation:

We treat the combined investment as a portfolio, with 50% each of the portfolio size invested in each asset.

Asset A: return (r) = 10%; standard deviation (s) = 0

Asset B: return (r) = 18%; standard deviation (s) = 6%

Portfolio mean (R) =

[tex](w_{1}*r_{1})+(w_{2}*r_{2})\\=(0.5*0.1)+(0.5*0.18)\\=0.05+0.09\\=0.14[/tex]

Therefore, portfolio mean = 14%.

Portfolio standard deviation (S) = [tex][(w_{1}^{2}*s_{1}^{2})+(w_{2}^{2}*s_{2}^{2})+(2w_{1} w_{2}COV_{12} )]^{\frac{1}{2}}[/tex]

Since no information was given about portfolio covariance, we will assume it is zero.

[tex]S=[(w_{1}^{2}*s_{1}^{2})+(w_{2}^{2}*s_{2}^{2})]^{\frac{1}{2}}\\=[(0.5^{2} *0^{2} )+(0.5^{2} *0.06^{2} )]\\=0.25*0.0036\\=0.03[/tex]

Therefore, portfolio standard deviation = 3%.

Lambda was asked to present a bid for 10 additional units as soon as the second unit was completed. Production would start immediately. What would this bid be

Answers

Answer:

$2,731,672.50

Explanation:

first unit produced by lambda took 5,000 hours to produce and required $250,000 worth of material, equipment usage, and supplies

the second unit took 4,250 hours and used $238,500 worth of materials, equipment usage, and supplies

learning rate = time needed to produce second unit / time needed to produce first unit = 4,250 hours / 5,000 hours = 85%

materials and equipment usage rate = $237,500 / $250,000 = 95%

using the attached table of cumulative values, we can determine the cumulative improvement factors needed to solve this question:

Lambda's accumulated cost for producing 10 more computers

work hours = 4,250 x 7.116 (85% and 10 units) x $20 per hour = $604,860materials and equipment = $238,500 x 8.955 (95% and 10 units) = $2,126,812.50total = $604,860 + $2,126,812.50 = $2,731,672.50

Answers

Answer:

Break-even point (dollars)= $6,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price per unit $ 2.00

Variable production cost per unit $ 0.30

Fixed production cost $ 3,000

Sales commission per unit $ 0.20

Fixed selling expenses $ 1,500

To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Fixed costs= 3,000 + 1,500= 4,500

Unitary variable cost= 0.3 + 0.2= $0.5

Break-even point (dollars)= 4,500 / [(2 - 0.5) / 2]

Break-even point (dollars)= $6,000

When 14,600 units are sold, profits equaled $133,000.

First, we need to calculate the total fixed costs:

Fixed costs= Total contribution margin - net income

Fixed costs= 14,600*(44 - 25) - 133,000

Fixed costs= $144,400

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 144,400 / (44 - 25)

Break-even point in units= 7,600

Kayla Sampson, an antiques dealer from Mankato, Minnesota, received her monthly billing statement for April for her MasterCard account. The statement indicated that she had a beginning balance of $600, on day 5 she charged $150, on day 12 she charged $300, and on day 15 she made a $200 payment. Out of curiosity, Kayla wanted to confirm that the finance charge for the billing cycle was correct. (a) What was Kayla’s average daily balance for April without new purchases?

Answers

Answer: $493.3

Explanation:

Kayla's average daily balance for April without new purchases will be:

We should note that she has opening balance of $600 for 14 days without purchase, $400 balance for 16 days from April 15-30. This will be:

= [($600 × 14) + ($400 × 16)]/2

= ($8400 + $6400)/30

= $14800/30

= $493.3

A company has a pension liability of $460,000,000 that it must pay in 29 in years. If it can earn an annual interest rate of 4.2 percent, how much must it deposit today to fund this liability?

a. $133,883,255.09
b. $139,506.351.81
c. 44,08571.14
d. $11755.30770
e. $121423,867.90

Answers

Answer:

PV= $139,506,351.8

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future Value= $460,000,0000

Number of periods= 29 years

Interest rate= 4.2%

To calculate the initial investment, we need to use the following formula:

PV= FV / (1+i)^n

PV= 460,000,000 / (1.042^29)

PV= $139,506,351.8

a. How much would you pay for a Treasury bill that matures in 182 days and pays $10,000 if you require a 1.8% discount rate?
b. If the Treasury also received $750 million in non-competitive bids, who will receive T-bills, in what quantity, and at what price?

Answers

Answer: $9909

Explanation:

Let the amount that will be paid be represented by y. The question can now be solved as:

(10000 - y)/10000 × 360/182 = 0.018

(10000-y)/10000 = 0.018 × 182/360

(10000 - y)/10000 = 0.0091

10000-y = 0.0091 × 10000

10000 - y = 91

y = 10000 - 91

y = $9909

On January 1, 2016, Brian's stock portfolio is worth $100,000. On September 30, 2016, $5,000 is withdrawn from the portfolio, and immediately after this withdrawal the portfolio has a value of $105,000. Twelve months later, the value of the portfolio is $108,000, and Brian adds $3,000 worth of stock to his portfolio. On December 31, 2017, the portfolio is worth $100,000. What is the time-weighted rate of return for Brian's stock portfolio over the two year period

Answers

Answer:

1.93%

Explanation:

The time weighted rate of return will be computed by combining the return at every time period demarcated by a withdrawal/addition.

Time 1: Jan 1, 2016 to Sep 30, 2016

start value = 100,000; end value = (105,000+5,000) = 110,000

Return = [tex]\frac{110,000}{100,000}=1.1[/tex]

Time 2: Sep 30, 2016 to Sep 30, 2017

start value = 105,000; end value = 108,000

Return = [tex]\frac{108,000}{105,000}=1.028571[/tex]

Time 3: Sep 30, 2017 to Dec 31, 2017

start value = (108,000 + 3,000) = 111,000; end value = 100,000

Return = [tex]\frac{100,000}{111,000}=0.900901[/tex].

Therefore, time weighted return

= (1.1 * 1.028571 * 0.900901) - 1

= 0.019305

= 1.93%.

West Side Corporation is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $16, $12, $11, and $7.50. Afterward, the company pledges to maintain a constant 6 percent growth rate in dividends forever. If the required return on the stock is 16 percent, what is the current share price?
a. $63.27.
b. $61.40.
c. $68.82.
d. $65.17.
e. $60.11.

Answers

Answer:

$77.81

Explanation:

We are given that West Side Corporation is expected to pay the following dividends over the next four years: $16, $12, $11, and $7.50.

Required rate - 16%

Growth rate = 6%

We are supposed to find the current share price

Formula :[tex]P_0=\sum_{t=0}^{T}\frac{D_T}{(1+r)^t}+\frac{D_{T+1}}{r-G}(1+r)^{-T}[/tex]

D = Dividends

t = time

r = required rate

G= Growth rate

Substitute the values in formula :

[tex]P_0=\frac{16}{(1+0.16)^1}+\frac{12}{(1+0.16)^2}+\frac{11}{(1+0.16)^3}+\frac{7.50}{(1+0.16)^4}+\frac{7.50(1+0.06)}{0.16-0.06}(1+0.16)^{-4}\\P_0=77.81\\[/tex]

CDB stock is currently priced at $85. The company will pay a dividend of $5.69 next year and investors require a return of 11.6 percent on similar stocks. What is the dividend growth rate on this stock?

Answers

Answer:

4.91%

Explanation:

CDB stock is currently priced at $85

The company will pay a dividend of $5.69

The required return is 11.6%

There for the dividend growth rate on this stock can be calculated as follows

11.6/100= (5.69/85) + growth rate

0.116= 0.0669 + growth rate

0.116 - 0.0669 = growth rate

0.0491 × 100 = growth rate

Growth rate = 4.91%

Joe Jones, Inc. has a beta of .85. The risk-free rate is 5% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 10%. a. Compute the required return for Joe Jones using the security market line (SML) equation.

Answers

Answer: 9.25%

Explanation:

Risk free rate, Rf = 5% = 0.05

We then subtract the risk free rate of 5% from the expected date of return on market portfolio of 10%. This will be:

= 10% - 5% = 5%

Beta = 0.85

Required return will now be:

= Rf + (Rm-Rf) x Beta

= 5% + (5% × 0.85)

= 5% + 4.25%

= 9.25%

Make way for India - the next China China grows at around 9 percent a year, but its one-child policy will start to reduce the size of China's working-age population within the next 10 years. India, by contrast, will have an increasing working-age population for another generation at least. Then answer the following questions: According to classical growth theory, restricting China's population ______ economic growth. According to new growth theory, restricting China's population growth ______ economic growth.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "India and increases".

Explanation:

Since its working-age population is rising, India will have a higher economic growth rate, and according to traditional thinking, restricting China's people would boost economic growth.

The modernization theory includes reducing population growth in China would reduce economic growth. In India, real GDP per person has a growth of 8-1.6 = 6.4% as well as that of China is 9-0.6 = 8.4% in 2005. In India, the doubling time is 70/6.4% = 11 years or 2016 and in China, 8.33 or 2014.
