Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Sales units = 1,000,000
Selling price = $188
Total
Sales $188,000,000
Cost of goods sold (100,000,000)
Variable cost of goods sold = $70,000,000
Fixed cost of goods sold = $30,000,000
Gross profit $88,000,000
Expenses:
Selling expenses $16,000,000
Variable selling expenses $12,000,000
Fixed selling expense = $4,000,000
Administrative expenses 12,000,000
Variable administrative expenses = $6,000,000
Fixed administrative expenses = $6,000,000
Total expenses (28,000,000)
Operating income $60,000,000
The division of costs between variable and fixed is as follows:
Variable Fixed
Cost of goods sold 70% 30%
Selling expenses 75% 25%
Administrative expenses 50% 50%
Total Unit Cost
Variable cost of goods sold = $70,000,000 $70
Variable selling expenses 12,000,000 12
Variable administrative expenses 6,000,000 6
Total variable costs = $88,000,000 $88
Contribution margin = $100 ($188 - $88)
Fixed cost of goods sold = $30,000,000
Fixed selling expense = 4,000,000
Fixed administrative expenses = 6,000,000
Total fixed costs = $40,000,000
Break-even sales units = $40,000,000/$100 = 400,000 units
Proposal:
Sales revenue increase = $11,280,000
Fixed costs by $5,000,000 to $45,000,000 ($40 million + $5 million)
Sales units increase = 60,000 ($11,280,000/$188)
Break-even sales units = 450,000 ($45,000,000/$100)
Units to realize target profit of $60,000,000:
= ($45,000,000 + $60,000,000)/$100
= $105,000,000/$100
= 1,050,000,000 units
Profit with the expanded plan
= Total contribution - Fixed Costs
= $100 * 1,060,000 - $45,000,000
= $106,000,000 - $45,000,000
= $61,000,000
With sales at current level of 1,000,000 units
Sales revenue = $188,000,000
Variable costs 88,000,000
Contribution $100,000,000
Fixed costs 45,000,000
Operating income $55,000,000
On the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Honda Motor Company stock closed at ¥2,915 per share on Monday, June 6, 2016. Honda trades as an ADR on the NYSE. One underlying Honda share equals one ADR.

No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=Stock closed per share /Exchange rate
Let plug in the formula
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=¥2,915 / ¥107.65
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=$27.078
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=$27.08 (Approximately)
Therefore the no-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR is $27.08
If the price of oil, a close substitute for coal, increases then:
a. the demand curve for coal will shift to the right.
b. equilibrium price and quantity of coal will not change.
c. supply curve for coal will shift to the right.
d. demand curve for coal will shift to the left.
e. supply curve of coal will shift to the left.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.
if the price of a good increases, the demand for the substitute increases and if the price of the good reduces, the demand for the substitute increases.
If the price of oil increases, it becomes cheaper to buy coal. As a result, there would be a rightward shift of the demand curve for coal. As a result, the equilibrium price and quantity would increase
Cardco Inc. has an annual accounting period that ends on December 31. During the current year a depreciable asset that cost $42,000 was purchased on September 1. The asset has a $4,000 estimated salvage value. The company uses straight-line depreciation and expects the asset to have a five-year life. What is the total depreciation expense for the current year
Answer: $2,533.33
Explanation:
First you need to calculate the annual depreciation:
= (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / Useful life
= (42,000 - 4,000) / 5
= 38,000 / 5
= $7,600
The asset was bought on September 1 and needs to be depreciated for the months of the year it was in the business. That would be September to December which is 4 months.
Depreciation for that year is:
= 7,600 * 4/12 months
= $2,533.33
Company A produces paper and sells it to Company B for a total of $183. Company B uses the paper to make books and then sells the books to consumers for a total of $342.What is the value of GDP in this simple economy?
Answer:
$159
Explanation:
Value = cost of books - cost of paper
342 - 183 = 159
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
the cost of paper is not included because it is an intermediate good and not a final good.
An intermediate good is a good that is used in the production of the final good.
If it is added to GDP, it would result in double counting
The value of GDP in this simple economy is $159.
A gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
The formula for GDP is Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Note that "the cost of paper is not included because it is an intermediate good and not a final good and an intermediate good is a good that is used in the production of the final good"
The value of GDP = Cost of books - Cost of paper
The value of GDP = 342 - 183
The value of GDP = 159
In conclusion, the value of GDP in this simple economy is $159.

of $3.00 per unit. The variable cost to manufacture is $2.00 per unit. The monthly fixed costs are $8000. Its current sales are 29,000 units per month. If the company wants to increase its operating income by 20%, how many additional units must it sell
Answer: 33,200 units
Explanation:
Current operating income = Sales - Variable costs - fixed costs
= (29,000 * 3) - (29,000 * 2) - 8,000
= $21,000
An increase of 20% would be:
= 21,000 * 1.20
= $25,200
The number of units that must be sold is:
= (Fixed costs + Required profit) / Contribution margin
Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable cost
= 3 - 2
= $1
Number of units to be sold is:
= (8,000 + 25,200) / 1
= 33,200 units
The balance in a company's Cash account on August 31 was $18,800 before the bank reconciliation was prepared. After examining the August bank statement and items included with it, the company's accountant found: Checks outstanding $ 3,300 NSF check 110 Note collected by bank for the Colt Company 1,650 Deposits outstanding 2,800 Bank service fees 220 What is the amount of cash that should be reported in the balance sheet as of August 31
Answer:
$20,340
Explanation:
The amount of cash to be recognize is the adjusted amount after considering the transactions that were omitted from the bank statement and cash book and properly recognizing the erroneous entries into the two books.
Considering the reconciling items,
Checks outstanding $ 3,300 - This has been recognized in the company's Cash account and as such need no adjustment in the company's books
NSF check 110 - This has been deducted from the company's cash book but was not honored by the bank as such, it will be added back to the company's cash book balance
Note collected by bank for the Colt Company 1,650 - This has been recognized by the bank and as such will be added to the company's cash book balance
Deposits outstanding 2,800 - This has been recognized in the company's Cash account and as such need no adjustment in the company's books.
Bank service fees 220 - This has been recognized by the bank and as such will be deducted as a charge to the company's cash book balance
Hence the amount of cash that should be reported in the balance sheet as of August 31 will be
= $18,800 + $110 + $1650 - $220
= $20,340
When interest is compounded continuously, the amount of money increases at a rate proportional to the amount S present at time t, that is, dS/dt=rS, where r is the annual rate of interest.
a) Find the amount of money accrued at the end of 5 years when $6000 is deposited in a savings account drawing 534% annual interest compounded continuously. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
b) In how many years will the initial sum deposited have doubled? (Round your answer to the nearest year.)
c) Use a calculator to compare the amount obtained in part a) with the amount S=6000(1+14(0.0575))5(4) that is accrued when interest is compounded quarterly. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Given that;
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Where;
P= $6000
r = 5 3/4%
t = 5 years
n= 1
A = 6000(1 + 0.0575)^5
A= $ 7935
b) What time will A become $12,000
12000 = 6000(1 + 0.0575)^t
12000/6000 = (1 + 0.0575)^t
2 = (1 + 0.0575)^t
Take logarithm of both sides
log2 = t log(1 + 0.0575)
t= log2/log(1 + 0.0575)
t= 0.3010/0.0243
t = 12 years
c) when compounded quarterly;
S= 6000(1 + 1/4(0.0575))^(5)(4)
S= $7982
The amount when interest is compounded quarterly is higher than when it is compounded annually because the interest increases as the number of compounding periods increases.

In the short run, open-market purchases a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates. b. increase real GDP and interest rates, and decrease investment. c. increase investment and interest rates, and decrease real GDP. d. decrease investment, interest rates, and real GDP.
Answer: a. increase investment and real GDP, and decrease interest rates.
Explanation:
During an Open Market Purchase, the central bank of the country would be buying back securities from the public which means that it would be infusing money into the economic system.
With an increased amount of money in the economy, people will be able to save more which means that interests rate will drop because there are now more loanable funds. This drop in interest rates will encourage more companies and people to borrow cash for investment which will then lead to a higher GDP.
In the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.
The interest rate has been the amount of interest lent onto the principal sum. The GDP has been the gross domestic product that has been the market value of the final products.
In the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in the amount of money in the market. The government has been buying the securities and results in the market flow of money. The market flow will eventually result in an increase in the GDP with the decreased interest rates.
Thus in the short run, in the open-market purchase, there has been an increase in investment and real GDP and decreased interest rates. Thus option A is correct.

At the beginning of the year, a company had accounts receivable of $700,000 and an allowance for doubtful accounts with a credit balance of $60,000. During the current year, sales on account were $195,000 and collections on account were $115,000. Also during the current year, the company wrote off $11,000 in uncollectible accounts. At year-end, an analysis of outstanding accounts receivable indicated that the allowance for doubtful accounts should have a $72,000 credit balance so the company records the appropriate year-end adjusting entry. How much did the cash realizable value change during the current year
Answer:
$77,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much did the cash realizable value change during the current year
First step
Ending accounts receivables = Beginning accounts receivables + Sales on account - collections on account - Write offs
Ending accounts receivables = $700,000 + $195,000 - $95,000 - $11,000
Ending accounts receivables= $789,000
Second step
Ending cash realizable value = Ending accounts receivables - Ending allowance for doubtful accounts
Ending cash realizable value = $789,000 - $72,000
Ending cash realizable value= $717,000
Now let determine the Change in cash realizable value
Change in cash realizable value = Ending cash realizable value - Beginning cash realizable value
Change in cash realizable value= $717,000 - 640,000
Change in cash realizable value= $77,000
Therefore How much did the cash realizable value change during the current year will be $77,000
he next dividend payment by Savitz, Inc., will be $5.05 per share. The dividends are anticipated to maintain a growth rate of 5 percent forever. If the stock currently sells for $43 per share, what is the required return
Answer:
16.74%
Explanation:
Current Price = Expected Dividend / (Required Return - Growth Rate)
Required Return = (Expected Dividend / Current Price) + Growth rate
Required Return = ($5.05 / $43) + 5%
Required Return = 0.1174419 + 0.05
Required Return = 0.1674419
Required Return = 16.74%

Assume that Zonk is a potential leveraged buyout candidate. Assume that the buyer intends to put in place a capital structure that has 70 percent debt with a pretax borrowing cost of 14 percent and 30 percent common equity. Compute the revised equity beta for Zonk based on the new capital structure.
Answer: 4.35
Explanation:
The revised equity beta for Zonk based on the new capital structure will be gotten as follows:
= 1.13 × [1 + (1 - 35%)][70% /30%]
= 1.13 × [1+(1-0.35)][0.70/0.30]
= 1.13 × [1 + 0.65][2.33]
= 1.13 × (1.65)(2.33)
= 4.35
Therefore, the revised equity beta for Zonk is 4.35.

Answer:
$8539
Explanation:
Depreciation is a method of expensing the cost of an asset.
Yearly deprecation expense =depreciable cost / useful life
depreciable cost = cost of the machine - salvage value
51,236 / 6 = $8539.33

Assume that Gotiable uses the average cost method for inventory costing.
1. What is the average cost of one hat? (Round to the nearest penny (2 decimal points)).
2. What will be the dollar value of the inventory on the April 30th balance Sheet? (Round to the nearest dollar)
3. What will Gotiable report as Gross margin for the hats for the month of April? (Round to the nearest dollar)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1.
Particulars Units Unit Cost Dollars
Beg. Inv. 84 $3 $252
Apr-02 75 $4 $300
Apr-14 66 $7 $462
Apr-23 52 $8 $416
Total 277 $1,430
Average cost of one hat is
= Total cost of purchases ÷ Units purchased
= $1,430 ÷ 277 units
= $5.16
2.
Ending Inventory in Units = Units purchased - Units sold
= 277 units - 142 units
= 135 units
Now
Value of Ending Inventory = Units in Ending Inventory × Average cost per unit
= 135 units × $5.16
= $696.60
= $697
3
Gross Margin = Units sold × (Selling Price - Cost of goods sold)
= 142 units × ($24 - $5.16)
= $2,675.28
= $2,675

If the average annual rate of return for common stocks is 11.7 percent, and 4.0 percent for U.S. Treasury bills, what is the average market risk premium?
Answer:
7.7%
Explanation:
Risk premium is the return an investor would want for holding a risky bond. It is the excess return earned over holding a risk free bond
Risk premium = return on risky asset - return on U.S. Treasury bills
The U.S. Treasury bills is considered to be risk free because the US government cannot default
On the other hands, stocks are risky because companies can default on payment of dividends due to various reasons e.g. insolvency
11.7 - 4 = 7.7%
