What is the breakeven point for The Mugger? 2. Would you recommend promoting the change in product mix to 4 to 2 to 1 of flower mugs, dog mugs, and sports mugs? Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

1. The break even point for flowers = Fixed costs / Contribution margin

Where contribution margin = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $500,000 / ($20 - $10)

= $500,000 / $10

= 50,000 units

Therefore,

Break even point for the Mugger is 50,000 units.

Break even points for Dogs = Fixed costs ÷ Contribution margin

= $500,000 / ($25 -$20)

= $500,000 / $5

= 100,000 units

Break even points Sports = Fixed costs / Contribution margin

= $500,000 / ($10 - $6)

= $500,000 / $4

= 125,000 units

2. I can recommend that the mugger should change its product mix from 1:4:2 (Flowers, dogs, sports) to 4:2:1 (Flowers , dogs , sports)

• Because there is an increase in the break even points for each of the mugger.

Allocation of resources is inefficient only if:________

Answers

Answer:

Does Svensons find a refrigerator value that $2300 on sale for $1900 they decided to withdraw $500 from savings to use as a down payment on the purchase of a refrigerator and took out a loan to pay the balance choose the true statement
A.The Svensons Assets increased by $1400
B.The Svensons Assets increased by $1800
C.The SvensonsI said to increase by $1900
D.The Svensons assets increased by $2300

Answers

Answer:

B.The Svensons Assets increased by $1800

Explanation:

The Svensons assets increased by $1,800 because even if they purchased the refrigerator for $1,900, the market value of the refrigerator is $2,300, so their assets initially increase by this amount.

However, they also withdraw $500 from their savings to pay for the refrigerator, meaning that this asset account is reduced by the same amount.

Thus, an initial increase of $2,300 minus a later decrease of $500 gives us a final $1,800 increase.

you have tickets to the 49ers game on Sunday and you have an invitation to a friends party. You cannot go to Bulls. You choose to go to the party. What is the opportunity cost? What is the risk and your decision?

Answers

It depends on the day of the party

It depends on the day of the party or wasted money generally on the tickets.

What is Opportunity cost?

Opportunity cost is the worth of what you lose while picking either at least two choices.

At the point when you choose, you feel that your decision will have improved results for you paying little heed to what you lose by making it. As a financial backer, opportunity cost implies that your venture decisions will constantly have quick and future misfortunes or gains.

Opportunity cost is the misfortune you take to make an increase, or the deficiency of one increase for another increase. Consider, for instance, the decision between whether to sell stock offers now or clutch them to sell later. Opportunity cost is the benefit lost when one option is chosen over another.

The idea is valuable essentially as a suggestion to inspect all sensible options prior to pursuing a choice. For instance, you have $1,000,000 and decide to put it in a product offering that will create an arrival of 5%.

While the facts confirm that a financial backer could get any quick acquires they could have by selling right away, they miss out on any additions the venture could get them what's in store.

Therefore merely it depends upon the day of the party.

3) Variable and direct cost

4) Fixed and direct cost

5) Variable and direct cost

6) Variable and direct cost

7) Fixed and direct cost

8) Variable and direct cost

Explanation:

On the one hand, the costs known as variable are the ones whose amount changes with the variation of the production and therefore that this costs never the same because it will depend directly on the production. Meanwhile, the fixed costs are the opposite, they do not depend on the production and will always be the same amount, no matter how much the production increases or decreases.

On the other hand, the direct costs are the ones that are directly related to the cost object that is being analized and therefore that this costs are absolutely necessary to pay in order to keep the production of the good. Meanwhile, the indirect costs are the ones that can not be stricly related to the cost object and therefore that sometimes it is not clear how much of them are needed to be attributed to the product.

Assume that an investor owns 30% of an investee, and accounts for its investment using the equity method. At the beginning of the year, the Equity Investment was reported on the investor's balance sheet at $300,000. During the year, the investee reported net income of $105,000 and paid dividends of $20,000 to the investor. In addition, the investor sold inventory to the investee, realizing a gross profit of $42,000 on the sale. At the end of the year, 20% of the inventory remained unsold by the investee.Required:a. How much equity should the investor report for the year?b. What is the balance of the Equity Investment at the end of the year?c. Assume that the remaining inventory is sold in the following year and that the investee reports $150,000 of net income. How much equity income will the investor report for the following year?

Answers

Answer:

a.34,020

b.314,020

c.42,600

Explanation:

The equity method is applied when a company's ownership interest in another company is valued at 20–50% of the stock in the investee. The equity method requires the investing company to record the investee's profits or losses in proportion to the percentage of ownership

DATA

Net Income = $105,000

Investor's share = 30%

Inventory unsold = 20%

Gross profit = $42,000

Dividends = $20,000

Requirement 1

Equity to be reported = (investor's share of net income)  − (Share of unrealized profit on inventory at the end)

Equity to be reported = ($105,000 × 30%) − ($42,000 × 20% × 30%)

Equity to be reported = $31,500 + $2,520

Equity to be reported = $34,020

Requirement 3

Equity investment at end of year = (Equity investment at the beginning of the year)  + (Investor's share of net income)  − (Dividendsdeclared)

Equity investment at end of year  = $300,000 + $34,020 − $20,000

Equity investment at end of year  =$314,020

Requirement 2

Equity to be reported = (Investor′ s share of net income)  -(Share of unrealized profit on inventory at the year end)

Equity to be reported =($150,000×30%)−($40,000×20%×30%)

Equity to be reported =$45,000−$2,400

Equity to be reported =$42,600

entry level managers, e.g. supervisorslow level managers, e.g. store managersmiddle level managers, e.g. division managerupper level managers, e.g. CEO, CFO, COO

The higher the position on the organizational pyramid, the tasks and responsibilities also differ. Entry level managers generally supervise the tasks of entry level workers, e.g. sales clerks.

Low level managers generally have both supervisory and general management functions, e.g. a store manager must make sure that everyone does their job properly, but also must make administrative decisions like hiring, overseeing inventory, etc.

Middle level managers are generally functional managers, meaning that they are in charge of a certain area within the organization, e.g. human resources, finances, marketing, etc.

Upper level managers are responsible for developing the organization's strategies and long term goals, their focus should always be on the big picture and the future of the organization,  not just one part of it.

If the price of output is $1 per unit and we observe the firm hiring four workers, if the firm is maximizing profit, the wage rate must be between ________ and ________. A) $35; $40 B) $30; $35 C) $45; $60 D) $80; $90

Answers

Answer:

B. $30; $35

Explanation:

The sole purpose of business is to make profit. When a production company makes products for sale, they try to reduce the cost of production by source cheap or substantial power supply, total usage of the raw materials and the employing cheap labour, both skilled and unskilled. If the price of a company's output after production is $1, they check the profit that would be made in a bash of products, extracting the cost which includes the worker's wages.

They pick the minimum possible value for payment that is favorable to them and is considered fair by the employees.

Suppose that an investor with a 5-year investment horizon is considering purchasing a 7-year 9% coupon bond selling at par. The investor expects that he can reinvest the coupon payments at an annual interest rate of 9.4% and that at the end of the investment horizon 2-year bonds will be selling to offer a yield to maturity of 11.2%. What is the total return for this bond

Answers

Answer:

50.34%

Explanation:

initial investment = $1,000 (bond purchased at par value)

annual coupon = $1,000 x 9% = $90

period       cash flow

year 0       -$1,000

year 1        $90

year 2       $90 + ($90 x 0.094) = $98.46

year 3       $90 + ($188.46 x 0.094) = $107.71524

year 4       $90 + ($296.17524 x 0.094) = $117.84

year 5       $90 + ($414.02 x 0.094) = $128.92

at the end of year 5, the investor will have $542.94, plus he/she will still own the bond

the price of the bond at year 5 will be:

0.112 = {90 + [(1,000 - MV)/2]} / [(1,000 + MV)/2]

0.112 x [(1,000 + MV)/2] = 90 + [(1,000 - MV)/2]

0.112 x (500 + 0.5MV) = 90 + 500 - 0.5MV

56 + 0.056MV = 590 - 0.5MV

0.556MV = 534

MV = 534 / 0.556 = $960.43

the investor's total return = [($542.94 + $960.43) / $1,000] - 1 = ($1,503.37 / $1,000) - 1 = 0.50337 x 100 = 50.34%

Which of the following Lean principles reflects the ability of a customer to move through a process? a) Value b) Flow c) Pull d) Perfection

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Customer Value

Explanation:

Value is always defined by the paradigm of the Customer.

It starts with the end product in mind then works back to how the product can be achieved, each time modifying the process until all waste is eliminated.

Everything along the production or manufacturing chain that does not contribute to the end-value expected by the customer is eliminated.

Cynthia, requested a two-week leave from her employer to go on a religious pilgrimage. The pilgrimage was not a requirement of her religion, but Cynthia felt it was a °calling from God." Will it violate Title VII if Cynthia's employer does not grant her the leave? Explain. (Tiano V. Dillard Department Mores, Inc, 1998 WL 117864 (9th Cir. 1998)).

Answers

Answer: No. It does not violate Title VII if Cynthia's employer does not grant her the leave.

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Cynthia, requested a two-week leave from her employer to go on a religious pilgrimage and that the pilgrimage was not a requirement of her religion, but Cynthia felt it was a calling from God.

Based on the scenario, Title VII is not violated if Cynthia's employer does not grant her the leave. According to the court, when an employee says that based on his or her religious belief, he or she is required to go to a pilgrimage, the person has to prove beyond reasonable doubt.

In this case, her church which is the Roman Catholic didn't call for a pilgrimage as it was her personal choice. Therefore, Title VII is not violated if Cynthia's employer does not grant her the leave.

Collins Company had the following cost data available. The Collins accountant believes that direct labor hours is the correct cost driver to use to predict and manage these costs.$100,000; 15,000 direct labor hours for January$80,000; 12,000 direct labor hours for February$90,000; 14,000 direct labor hours for March$75,000; 11,000 direct labor hours for April$85,000; 12,500 direct labor hours for May$70,000; 10,000 direct labor hours for JuneUse the high-low method to compute the total amount of monthly fixed costs for Collins Company.
a) $10,000b) $0c) $15,000d) $90,000e) $60,000f) $30,000

Answers

Answer:

a) $10,000

Explanation:

The computation of the fixed cost by using high low method is shown below:

Before that first we have to determine the variable cost per direct labor hours which is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High Operating cost - low operating cost) ÷ (High labor  hours - low  labor hours)

= ($100,000 - $70,000) ÷ (15,000 hours - 10,000 hours)

= $30,000 ÷ 5,000 hours

= $6

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High operating cost - (High  labor hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $100,000 - (15,000 hours × $6)

= $100,000 - $90,000

= $10,000

hence, the correct option is a . $10,000
