Janet Foster bought a computer and printer at Computerland. The printer had a $900 list price with a $100 trade discount and 2/10, n/30 terms. The computer had a $4,060 list price with a 25% trade discount but no cash discount. On the computer, Computerland offered Janet the choice of (1) paying $160 per month for 17 months with the 18th payment paying the remainder of the balance or (2) paying 8% interest for 18 months in equal payments.
a. Assume Janet could borrow the money for the printer at 8% to take advantage of the cash discount. How much would Janet save? (Use 360 days a year. Round your answer to the nearest cent.) Janet's savings $
b. On the computer, what is the difference in the final payment between choices 1 and 2? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.) Difference final payment

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Janet Foster

a. Janet could save $12.44 on the printer by borrowing $800 to take advantage of the cash discount.

b. On the computer, the difference in the final payment between choices 1 and 2 is $197.

It is advisable for Janet to choose the first option.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Printer:

List price of printer = $900

Trade discount =          100

Purchase cost =        $800

Cash discount terms = 2/10, n/30

Cash discount = $16 ($800 * 2%)

Interest on loan to purchase printer = $3.56 ($800 * 8% * 20/360)

Savings if loan is borrowed = $12.44 ($16 - $3.56)

Computer:

List price = $4,060

Trade discount = 25% or $1,015 ($4,060 * 25%)

Purchase cost = $3,045

Payment options:

1) = $160 * 17 months = $2,720

Balance on 18th month    325

Total payment =           $3,045

2) = Payment with 8% interest for 18 months equal payment = $180.08

From an online financial calculator:

N (# of periods)  18

I/Y (Interest per year)  8

PV (Present Value)   $3,045

FV (Future Value)  0

P/Y (# of periods per year)  12

C/Y (# of times interest compound per year)  12

PMT made at the end of each period

Results

PMT = $180.08

Sum of all periodic payments $3,241.48

Total Interest $196.48

Difference in final payment:

Choice 1 , total payment =    $3,045

Choice 2, total payment =    $3,242

Difference in final payment = $197

Smith Company makes jars of homemade strawberry jam. Each jar is priced at $6.00 per unit. The costs of the ingredients to make each jar are $2.00. The containing jar itself costs $1.00. The company has monthly expenses of $2,000 for rent and insurance, $300 for heat and electricity, and $5,000 in monthly salary expenses. Last month the company sold 3,000 jars. What is the UNIT VARIABLE COST per jar

Answers

Answer:

Total variable cost= $1.97

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The cost of the ingredients to make each jar is $2.00.

The containing jar itself costs $1.00.

$300 for heat and electricity

$5,000 in monthly salary expenses.

Generally, the salary expense and electricity are mixed costs (fixed and variable components). In this case, we will treat them as a full variable cost.

Unitary Electricity= 300 / 3,000= $0.1

Unitary direct labor= 5,000 / 3,000= $1.67

Now, the total variable cost:

Total variable cost= 2 + 1 + 0.1 + 1.67

Total variable cost= $1.97

Suppose that the reserve requirement for checking deposits is 20 percent and that banks do not hold any excess reserves. If the Fed sells $3 million of government bonds, the economy's reservesdecrease by $ million, and the money supply will by $ million. Now suppose the Fed lowers the reserve requirement to 15 percent, but banks choose to hold another 5 percent of deposits as excess reserves. True or False: The money multiplier will remain unchanged. True False True or False: As a result, the overall change in the money supply will remain unchanged. True False

Answers

Answer:

1. decrease, $ 3 million, decrease, $ 15 million

2. TRUE

3. TRUE

Explanation:

1. The reverse requirement is given as r = 0.2

The money multiplier is [tex]$\frac{1}{r}=\frac{1}{0.2}=5$[/tex]

Now when the monetary base is changed by $3 million, then the total money supply will change by [tex]$\frac{3}{0.2}= \$ 15 \ mn$[/tex].

Of the $ 15 mn, the reverse will change by $ 15 mn x 0.2 = $ 3 mn.

If Fed sells the government bond of $ 3 million, then the money supply will reduce and the economy's reverses will decrease by $ 3 million and the money supply will decrease by $ 15 million.

2. TRUE

   Now if the bank reduces the reserve ratio but he bank maintains excess reserves, then the money multiplier = [tex]$\frac{1}{(r+e)}=\frac{1}{0.15+0.05}=5$[/tex]

Therefore, the money multiplier will remain same, it will remain unchanged.

3. TRUE.

Since the money multiplier remains constant, the overall change in money supply will not increase. It remains the same.  

Joey realizes that he has charged too much on his credit card and has racked up $5,100 in debt. If he can pay $125 each month and the card charges 18 percent APR (compounded monthly), how long will it take him to pay off the debt

Answers

Answer:

It will take Joey 63.59 months to pay off the debt.

Explanation:

This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value or debt amount = $5,100

P = Monthly payment = $125

r = annual percentage rate (APR) / 12 = 18% / 12 = 0.18 / 12 = 0.015

n = number of months it will take Joey to pay off the debt = ?

Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:

5100 = 125 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.015))^n) / 0.015)

5100 / 125 = (1 - (1 / 1.015)^n) / 0.015

40.80 * 0.015 = 1 - 0.985221674876847^n

0.985221674876847^n = 1 - 0.612

0.985221674876847^n = 0.388

loglinearize both sides, we have:

nlog0.985221674876847 = log0.388

n = log0.388 / log0.985221674876847

n = -0.411168274405793 / -0.00646604224923186

n = 63.59

Therefore, it will take Joey 63.59 months to pay off the debt.

Cagney and Lacey enter into a written contract to open "Tried and True," a store specializing in used guns recovered from murder scenes. The written contract is a 2-paragraph handwritten document, and states that each party will receive 50% of any net profits and that each will devote 30 hours a week to the business. Both parties regard the writing as a final expression of their deal. After being in business for a evide while, Cagney sues Lacey for breach because Lacey is only working 20 hours per week during the summer months. Lacy attempts to present on vacation from school. Will Lacey be able to present this evidence at trial?
1. No, under the parole evidence rule that shows just prior to signing the contract, Cagney orally agreed that Lacey could work 20 hours a week when her children were
2. Yes, under the parole evidence rule
3. No, due to unilateral mistake
4. Yes, under the statute of frauds

Answers

Answer:

3. No, due to unilateral mistake

Explanation:

Lacey and Cagney both had agreed to wok for 30 hours per week and the agreement is in written format since it is enforceable. Both of them are sharing 50% profits so both will have to share the duties equally. When Lacey makes an excuse and is working for 20 hours per week only Cagney can sues her and she is in a probability to win against her. Lacey should have informed Cagney about the vacation from school scenario before signing the contract.

A NOW account requires a minimum balance of $750 for interest to be earned at an annual rate of 4 percent. An account holder has maintained an average balance of $500 for the first six months and $1,000 for the remaining six months. The account holder writes an average of 60 checks per month and pays $0.02 per check, although it costs the bank $0.05 to clear a check.

Required:
a. What average return does the account holder earn on the account?
b. What is the average return if the bank lowers the minimum balance to $400?
c. What is the average return if the bank pays interest only on the amount in excess of $400? Assume that the minimum required balance is $400.
d. How much should the bank increase its check fee to the account holder to ensure that the average interest it pays on this account is 5 percent? Assume that the minimum required balance is $750.

Answers

Answer:

a. Average return =  5.55%

b. Average return = 6.88%

c. Average return = 4.75%

d. Bank increase per check fees = $.0257

Explanation:

a.)

Interest earned on first $500 = $500×0×6 / 12 = $0

Interest earned on next $1000 = $1000×0.04×6 / 12=  $20

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12 =  $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $20 + $21.6 = $41.6

Given,

Average balance maintained  = $750

So,

Average return = $41.6 / $750 =  5.55%

b.)

Interest earned on first $500 = $500×0.04×6 / 12  = $10

Interest earned on next $1000 = $1000×0.04×6 / 12  = $20

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12  = $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $10 + $20 + $21.6 = $51.6

Given that,

Average balance maintained  = $750

So,

Average return = $51.6 / $750 = 6.88%

c.)

Interest earned on first $100 = $100×0.04×6 / 12 = $2

Interest earned on next $600 = $600×0.04×6 / 12 = $12

Now,

Fees earned on checks = ($.05 - $.02)×60×12  = $21.6

So,

Total interest earned = $2 + $12 + $21.6 = $35.6

Given that,

Average balance maintained = $750

So,

Average return = $35.6 / $750 = 4.75%

d.)

Total interest earned = $750×0.05 = $37.5

So,

fees earned on checks = $37.5 - $20 = $17.5

Subsidiary per check = $17.5 / 60×12 = $.0243

So,

Bank increase per check fees = $.05 – $.0243 = $.0257

The market interest rate is 4%. Denton issues bonds payable with a stated rate of 4%.b. Starkville issued 8% bonds payable when the market interest rate was 8.25%.

Answers

Answer:

a. Par value

b. Discount

Explanation:

a. As the market interest rate is 4% and the stated rate is also 4% so that means the bond would be issued at face value because both the rates are same

b. The bond rate is 8% and the market interest rate is 8.25%

so the stated interest rate is lower than the market interest rate, that means the bond would be issued at discount

hence, the same would be considered

Note: See the lower part of the attached excel for the table for the answer.

Explanation:

In the attached excel file, the following calculations are done:

(a) Operating income = Sales * Profit margin = $6,000,000 * 20% = $1,200,000

(b) Invested assets = Operating income / Return on investment = $1,200,000 / 16% = $7,500,000

(c) Investment turnover = Return on investment / Profit margin = 16% / 20% = 0.80 times

(d) Sales = Operating income / Profit margin = 1,512,000.00 / 12% = $12,600,000

(e) Investment assets = Sales / Investment turnover = $12,600,000 / 1.40 = $9,000,000.00

(f) Return on investment = Investment turnover * Profit margin = 1.40 * 12% = 16.80%

(g) Operating income = Invested assets * Return on investment = $11,000,000 / 17.50% = $1,925,000

(h) Profit margin = (Operating income / Sales) * 100 = ($1,925,000 / $13,750,000) * 100 = 14.0%

Required:
1. Based on the information provided in the announcement, indicate whether the market rate of interest is higher or lower than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.
2. If debt issue costs were $75,000 and the bonds were issued on an interest payment date, what entry did Craft use to record the sale?

Answers

Answer:

1. The market rate of interest is higher than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

2. Debit Cash for $746,700,000; Dbit Discount on bond payable for $3,225,000; Debit Bond issue cost for $75,000; and Credit Bond payable for $750,000,000.

Explanation:

1. Based on the information provided in the announcement, indicate whether the market rate of interest is higher or lower than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

From the information provided, it can be observed that the face value of this bond is 100% but it is issued at 99.57% price. Since the issue price of 99.57% is less than the face value, this implies that the bond is issued at a discount.

When a bond is issued at a discount, it indicates the stated interest rate is lower than the market interest rate.

Therefore, the market rate of interest is higher than 7.75% when the Craft Foods bonds were issued.

2. If debt issue costs were $75,000 and the bonds were issued on an interest payment date, what entry did Craft use to record the sale?

Before the journal entry is prepared, the following are first calculated:

Proceeds from bond issue = Bond price * Total face value = $750,000,000 * 99.57% = $746,775,000

Discount on bond = Total face value - Proceeds from bond issue = 750,000,000 - $746,775,000 = $3,225,000

Cash = Proceeds from bond issue - Debt issue costs = $746,775,000 - $75,000 = $746,700,000

The journal entry will now look as follows:

Description                                 Debit ($)                Credit ($)      

Cash                                        746,700,000

Discount on bond payable        3,225,000

Bond issue cost                               75,000

  Bond payable                                                      750,000,000

b. How many units must be produced monthly to achieve a monthly profit of $10,000?

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total fixed costs:

Total fixed costs= 3,500 + (120*2*15)

Total fixed costs= $7100

Now, using the following formula, we can determine the break-even point in units:

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

Break-even point in units= 7,100 / (100 - 40)

Break-even point in units= 118.33 = 119 units

Finally, the number of units to earn $10,000 in profit:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (7,100 + 10,000) / 60

Break-even point in units= 285

Answers

Answer:

9.1%

Explanation:

With regards to the above, margin is computed as;

Margin = (Net operating income ÷ Sales) × 100

Given that:

Net operating income = $2,597,140

Sales = $28,540,000

Margin = ($2,597,140 ÷ $28,540,000) × 100

Margin = 9.1%

Problem 11-5 Next week, Super Discount Airlines has a flight from New York to Los Angeles that will be booked to capacity. The airline knows from past history that an average of 40 customers (with a standard deviation of 26) cancel their reservation or do not show for the flight. Revenue from a ticket on the flight is $140. If the flight is overbooked, the airline has a policy of getting the customer on the next available flight and giving the person a free round-trip ticket on a future flight. The cost of this free round-trip ticket averages $270. Super Discount considers the cost of flying the plane from New York to Los Angeles a sunk cost. By how many seats should Super Discount overbook the flight? (Use Excel's NORMSINV() function to find the correct critical value for the given α-level. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) Overbooked by passengers

Answers

Answer:

29 Seats

Explanation:

Calculation to determine By how many seats should Super Discount overbook the flight

First step is to calculate the Critical ratio using this formula

Critical ratio=Cu/Cu +Co

Where,

Cu represent cost of underestimating the demand =$140

Co represent the cost of overestimating the demand =$270

Let plug in the formula

Critical ratio=$140/$140+$270

Critical ratio=$140/$410

Critical ratio=0.34146

Second step is to use Excel's NORMSINV() function to find thez-score that yields a p-value of 0.34146 which gives us -0.40848

Now let determine By how many seats should Super Discount overbook the flight

Numbers of seats to overbook the flight= 40 + (-0.40848 x 26)

Numbers of seats to overbook the flight=40 - 10.62048=

Numbers of seats to overbook the flight=29.37952

Numbers of seats to overbook the flight=29.4 seats (Approximately)

Numbers of seats to overbook the flight=29 seats (Rounded to the nearest whole number)

Therefore By how many seats should Super Discount overbook the flight is 29 seats

The Holmes Company's currently outstanding bonds have a 10% coupon and a 10% yield to maturity. Holmes believes it could issue new bonds at par that would provide a similar yield to maturity. If its marginal tax rate is 25%, what is Holmes' after-tax cost of debt

Answers

Answer:

7.5%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what is Holmes' after-tax cost of debt

Using this formula

After-tax cost of debt=YTM (1-Taxes)

Where,

YTM = 10%

Tax Rate = 25%

Let plug in the formula

After-tax cost of debt= 10%(1-25%)

After-tax cost of debt=10%(75%)

After-tax cost of debt=0.075*100

After-tax cost of debt=7.5%

Therefore Holmes' after-tax cost of debt is 7.5%
