Explanation:
The necessity of inventory control is to maintain a reserve (store) of goods that will ensure manufacturing according to the production plan based on sales requirements and the lowest possible ultimate cost.
Losses from improper inventory control include purchases in excess than what needed, the cost of slowed up production resulting from material not being available when wanted. Each time a machine is shut down for lack of materials or each time sale is postponed or cancelled for lack of finished goods. Thus a factory loses money.
To promote smooth factory operation and to prevent piling up of stock or idle machine time proper quantity of material must be on hand when it is wanted. Proper inventory control can reduce such losses to a great extent.
Autoliv produces air bag systems that it sells to automobile manufacturers throughout the world. Assume the company has a capacity of 50 million units per year, it is currently producing at an annual rate of 40 million units. Autoliv has received an order from a Japanese manufacturer to purchase 100,000 units at $65 each. Budgeted costs for 40 million and 45 million units are as follows:
(in thousands, except costs per unit) 40 Million Units 45 Million Units
Manufacturing costs
Direct materials $ 560,000 $ 630,000
Direct labor 220,000 247,500
Factory overhead 1,780,000 1,822,500
Total 2,560,000 2,700,000
Selling and administrative 1,120,000 1,125,000
Total $ 3,680,000 $ 3,825,000
Costs per unit
Manufacturing $ 64.00 $ 60.00
Selling and administrative 28.00 25.00
Total $ 92.00 $ 85.00
Sales to auto manufacturers are priced at $120 per unit, but the sales manager believes the company should aggressively seek the Japanese business even if it results in a loss of $20 per unit. She believes obtaining this order would open up several new markets for the company's product. The general manager commented that the company cannot tighten its belt to absorb the $2,000,000 loss ($20 × 100,000) it would incur if the order is accepted.
(a) Determine the financial implications of accepting the order. (Hint: Use the high-low method to determine variable costs per unit.)
Accepting the offer will Answerdecreaseincrease
profits by $________
(b) How would your analysis differ if the company were operating at capacity? Determine the advantage or disadvantage of accepting the order under full-capacity circumstances.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The variable cost per unit will be:
= (3,825,000 - 3,680,000) / (45million - 40 million)
= 0.029
Then, the financial order of accepting the order will be:
Contribution margin = Unit selling price - Unit
= 65 - 29
= 36
Since the size of the order is 100,000, the financial impact of accepting the order will be:
= 36 × 100,000
= 3,600,000
b. The differential analysis will be:
Contribution from special order = 3,600,000
Opportunity cost {100,000 = 120,000,000 - 29,000,000 = 9,100,000
Net disadvantage of accepting order will then be:
= 3600000 - 9100000
= 5,500,000

You would like to combine a risky stock with a beta of 1.68 with a treasury bill in a way that the risk level of the portfolio is equivalent to the risk level of the market. What weight of the portfolio should be invested in the Treasury Bill?
Answer:
0.60 or 60%
Explanation:
Calculation of weight of the portfolio
Assume that the weight is x
x*[Beta of stock) + (1+x)*(Beta of Tbills) = 1
x * (1.68) + (1-x)*(0) = 1
1.68x + (1-x)*0 = 1
1.68x + 0 = 1
x = [1/1.68]
x = 0.5952
x = 0.60 or 60%
So, the weight of the portfolio that should be invested in the Treasury Bill is 0.60 or 60%.
Partnership XYZ distributed a piece of land in a nonliquidating distribution to Bob, a 50% partner, during the current taxable year. The land had an adjusted basis of $50,000 and a FMV at the date of the distribution of $180,000. Bob has been a partner for 10 years. He had contributed the land to the partnership at formation when its FMV and basis were both equal. He has a basis in the partnership of $40,000 at year end, without taking into consideration the effects of the distribution. Calculate items 1-4 using the information above. Enter the appropriate amounts in the designated cells below. Indicate negative numbers by using a leading minus (-) sign. If no entry is necessary, enter a zero (0). Item Amount
1. Partnership XYZ's recognized gain (loss)
2. Bob's taxable gain (income)

Adjusted basis of land = $50,000
Fair market value (FMV) = $180,000
Bob's basis in the partnership at year end = $40,000
Item Amount
1. Partnership XYZ's recognized gain (loss) $130,000 ($180,000 - $50,000)
2. Bob's taxable gain (income) $65,000 ($130,000 * 50%)
3. Bob's basis in the property $90,000 ($180,000 * 50%)
4. Bob's basis in the partnership $105,000 ($65,000 + $40,000)
Say one morning you are considering whether to take UBER or riding the train to work. Both mediums would cost you about $4, but you have already paid in advance for the train (since you pay a flat fee at the beginning of the month). If the UBER would take slightly less time than the train ride, and you are mostly concerned with the time it takes you to get to work, you should:________
a) take the train since you already paid for it
b) take the UBER
c) be indifferent between either modes of transportation
d) find another way to get to work
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The flat fee paid for the train represents sunk cost. sunk cost is cost that is incurred and cannot be recovered. it should not be considered when making future decisions
You value getting to work early, the Uber is faster, so you should take the uber
Since you are mostly concerned with the time to get to work and less with the cost, you should still a). take the train since you already paid for it.
After all, the time-saving of the UBER ride is slightly less than the train ride, and you have already paid for the train ride.
Based on the tone of the underlying message, the time difference between the train ride and the UBER is not significant for you to lose $4.
Thus, you should only consider the UBER if the time difference is significant and your business at the office may be in jeopardy.

On January 1, Year 1, Eureka Company issued $290,000 of 4-year, 5% bonds at face value. The annual cash payment for interest is due on January 1 of each year beginning January 1, Year 2. Based on this information, what is the total amount of liabilities related to these bonds that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1
Answer:
$304,500
Explanation:
Interest payable on December 31, year 1 = $290,000 * 5%
Interest payable on December 31, year 1 = $14,500
Total amount of liabilities to be reported on the Balance Sheet, year 1:
= $290,000 + $14,500
= $304,500

If the Fed sells treasury bonds, what happens? Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a Financial institutions purchase the bonds, which injecting money into the system and the interest rate falls. b Financial institutions purchase the bonds, increasing their assets which allow them to lend more, reducing the interest rate. c Financial institutions purchase the bonds, which removes money from the system and the interest rate rises. d Financial institutions purchase the bonds, increasing their assets which allow them to lend more, increasing the interest rate.
Answer:
c Financial institutions purchase the bonds, which removes money from the system and the interest rate rises.
Explanation:
The Fed engages in various strategies to control the amount of money in the economy. On each strategy is the Open Market Operations (OMO) where the Fed regulates cash in circulation by selling or buying of securities.
When the Fed sells treasury bonds they want to mop up cash in the economy and reduce money supply.
As financial institutions purchase the bonds the level of liquidity or cash in the economy reduces.
This will push interest rates up as financial institutions have less cash to lend to customers.

A wine bar entrepreneur sells cases of her private-label wine for $335 per case.For an annual fee of $300, customers may also choose to enroll in a WineAppreciation Club, which o????ers private tastings and entitles members to buy casesof wine for $200. What is the minimum number of cases a club member need topurchase for the membership to be economically advantageous?
Answer: 3 cases
Explanation:
The entrepreneur charges $335 per case but members of the Wine Appreciation club can buy the cases for $200 if they pay an annual fee of $300.
The saving made by the members of the club is:
= 335 - 200
= $135 per case
Considering that they spend $300 on fees, the amount of cases that would give them a savings of more than this amount is:
= 300 / 135
= 2.22 cases
= 3 cases (rounded up)
At 3 cases they would make savings of:
= 3 * 135
= $405
This is more than the fee paid.

Stanford Corporation has four categories of overhead. The expected overhead costs for each category for next year are as follows:
Maintenance $210,000
Materials handling 90,000
Setups 75,000
Inspection 150,000
The company has been asked to submit a bid for a proposed job. The plant manager believes that obtaining this job would result in new business in future years. Bids are usually based upon full manufacturing cost plus 30 percent. Estimates for the proposed job are as follows:
Direct materials $5000
Direct labor (375 hours) $7500
Number of material moves 4
Number of inspections 3
Number of setups 2
Number of machine-hours 150
Expected activity for the four activity-based cost drivers that would be used is:
Machine-hours 10,000
Material moves 2,000
Setups 100
Quality inspections 4,000
Required:
a. Determine the amount of overhead that would be allocated to the proposed job if 20,000 direct labor-hours are used as the volume-based cost driver.
b. Determine the total costs of the proposed job.
c. Determine the company's bid if the bid is based upon full manufacturing cost plus 30 percent.
d. Determine the amount of overhead that would be applied to the proposed project if activity-based costing is used.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
a)
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,325,000 / 20,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $116.25 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 116.25*375
Allocated MOH= $43,493.75
b)
Total cost= 5,000 + 7,500 + 43,493.75
Total cost= $55,993.75
c)
Selling price= 55,993.75*1.3
Selling price= $72,791.88
d)
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Maintenance= 210,000 / 10,000= $21 per machine hour
Materials handling= 90,000 / 2,000= $45 per material move
Setups= 75,000 / 100= $750 per setup
Inspection= 150,000 / 4,000= $37.5 per inspection
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Maintenance= 21*150= 3,150
Materials handling= 45*4= 180
Setups= 750*2= 1,500
Inspection= 37.5*3= 112.5
Total allocated costs= $4,942.5

Identifying and Analyzing Financial Statement Effects of Cash Dividends Freid Corp. has outstanding 6,000 shares of $50 par value, 6% preferred stock, and 40,000 shares of $1 par value common stock. The company has $328,000 of retained earnings. At year-end, the company declares and pays the regular $3 per share cash dividend on preferred stock and a $2.20 per share cash dividend on common stock. a. Using the financial statement effects template, illustrate the effects of these two dividend payments.
Answer:
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
cash (18,000) NA Retained earnigns (18,000)
cash (88,000) NA Retained earnigns (88,000)
Retained earnings is an equity account and any cash dividends paid either to preferred or common stock will decrease cash and retained earnings, remember that both sides must balance.
Using the financial statement effects template, the effects of the two dividend payments by Freid Corp. are as follows:
Balance Sheet Retained Earnings Cash Flow Statement
Assets = Liab. + Equity
a. ($18,000) = Liab. + ($18,000) ($18,000) ($18,000) FA
b. ($88,000) = Liab. + ($88,000) ($88,000) ($88,000) FA
Data Analysis:
Outstanding shares:
6,000 shares of $50 par value, 6% preferred stock $300,000
40,000 shares of $1 par value, common Stock $40,000
Retained earnings = $328,000
Preferred Stock Dividends = $18,000 ($3 x 6,000)
Common Stock Dividends = $88,000 ($2.20 x 40,000)
Cash = $106,000 ($18,000 + $88,000)
Thus, the effects of the two dividend payments are reductions in the Assets, Equity, and Retained Earnings. They are also cash outflows under the financing section of the Statement of Cash Flows.

Relevant Contribution Margin per unit = $8.05 - $6.5
Relevant Contribution Margin per unit= $1.55
Sixth step is to calculate the Total Contribution
Total Contribution = 4,500 * $1.55
Total Contribution= $6,975
Now let calculate the profit using this formula
Profit = Contribution - Fixed Cost
Let plug in the formula
Profit = $6,975 - $650 - $350
Profit = $5,975
Therefore If Benjamin accepts the offer, its profits will:Increase by $5,975

You are being asked to consider selling one of your regional divisions to a private equity company. The private equity company has just offered you $1.2 million for the regional division. The division is expected to provide your company net annual cash flows of $175,000 for each of the next 10 years without you having to make any additional investments in the division. Your team has calculated information to help you make your decision, as follows.
A) Your company's WACC is 7.9%
B) Your hurdle rate for this potential sale is 11.2%
C) The Net Present Value of this opportunity to your company using WACC as your discount rate is (-$20,420.78)
D) The likely Net Present Value of the division to the private equity company following the sale is $13,776.23
Which of the following answers is correct given the information provided above?
1) The IRR of the project to your company is between 7.9% and 11.2%
2) The hurdle rate for the private equity company is higher than the hurdle rate for your company
3) The IRR of the project to your company is below 7.9%
4) None of the Above
Answer:
3) The IRR of the project to your company is below 7.9%
Explanation:
As we can see in the question that at 7.9% wacc, the net present value is -$20,420.78
Since the net present value is in negative that shows that the internal rate of return would be less than 7.9%
So according to the given situation, the option 3 is correct
And, the same is to be considered
The IRR of the project to your company is below 7.9% as when the NPV is negative, IRR should be less than the weighted average cost of capital.
What is IRR?
IRR can be defined as the rate of discount at which the present value of cash flows is equal to the present value of the cash outflows.
When the net present value (NPV) is negative, it means that the discounted cash flows are less than the original investment. Furthermore, the discount rate used exceeds the IRR.
When IRR = Cost of capital, NPV is zero; nevertheless, because NPV is negative, IRR must be less than the weighted average cost of capital.
Hence, Option 3. is the correct answer; The IRR of the project to your company is below 7.9%.

Solution :
a). Total debt = notes payable + long term debt
= 145,000 + 750,000
= $ 895,000
b). Total liabilities and equity = total assets
= 2,900,000
c). Current assets = total assets - net plant and equipment
= 2,900,000 - 2,600,000
=$ 300,000
d). Total current liabilities = total liabilities and equity - total common equity - long term debt
= 2,900,000 - 1,550,000 - 750,000
= $ 600,000
e). Accounts payable and accruals = total current liabilities - notes payable
= 600,000 - 145,000
= 455,000
f). Net working capital = current asset - current liabilities
= 300,000 - 600,000
= - $300,000

A company acquires a natural resource for and spends another on development of the site and for a nonmovable tangible asset installed at the site and for tangible movable equipment. Both assets have an expected useful life of 10 years. The natural resource is expected to yield units over its expected life. In year 1, units are extracted from the resource. What is the depletion expense for year 1? (Round any intermediary calculations to the nearest cent, and round your final answer to the nearest dollar.) A. B. C. D.
Question Completion:
A company acquires a natural resource for $1,400,000 and spends another $530,000 on development of the site and $320,000 for a non-movable tangible asset installed at the site and $150,000 for tangible movable equipment. Both assets have an expected useful life of 10 years. The natural resource is expected to yield 140,000 units over its expected life. In year 1, 45,000 units are extracted from the resource. What is the depletion expense for year 1?
Answer:
The depletion expense for Year 1 is:
= $77,143.50.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Acquisition cost of the natural resource = $1,400,000
Site development cost = 530,000
Cost of non-movable equipment = 320,000
Cost of movable equipment = 150,000
Total cost of natural resource = $2,400,000
Expected useful life of assets = 10 years
Expected units yield from the natural resource = 140,000
Resource extracted in Year 1 = 45,000
Depletion rate = $2,400,000/140,000 = $1.7143
Depletion expense for Year 1 = $1.7143 * 45,000 = $77,143.50
In a statement of cash flows using the indirect method, an increase in the available-for-sale debt securities account due to an increase in the debt's fair value should be reported as: Group of answer choices A deduction from net income in determining cash flows from operating activities. Not reported. An investing activity. An addition to net income in determining cash flows from operating activities.
Answer: Not reported.
Explanation:
The Indirect method includes Net income in its calculation but this would not include any increase in Available-For-Sale (AFS) debt securities as these fall under other comprehensive income in the balance sheet.
Most importantly, the indirect method of calculating the cash the company has is for calculating just that, the cash. This means that an increase in the AFS security due to its fair value increasing will bring in no additional cash to the company so it is not reported in the cash flow statement.

Here we assume the sales be x
0.18x + 0.14x = $59,000
0.32x = $59,000
x = $59,000 ÷ 0.32
= $184,375
The 0.18x come from
= ($9) ÷ ($15) × 0.30x
= 0.18x
And, the 0.14x come from
= ($2) ÷ ($20) × 0.70x
= 0.14x
