Leonard, a company that manufactures explosionproof motors, is considering two alternatives for expanding its international export capacity. Option 1 requires equipment purchases of $900,000 now and $560,000 two years from now, with annual M&O costs of $79,000 in years 1 through 10. Option 2 involves subcontracting some of the production at costs of $280,000 per year beginning now through the end of year 10. Neither option will have a significant salvage value.

Required:
Use a present worth analysis to determine which option is more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year. (Note: Check out the spreadsheet exercises for new options that Leonard has been offered recently.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the total present values (in bold red color) of the two alternatives for expanding international export capacity.

Present worth can be described as an equivalence method of analysis in which the cash flows of an investment or a project are discounted to a single present value.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Total present value of Option 1 = – $1,620,094

Total present value of Option 2 = – $1,453,892

Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.

At Davide Corporation, direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversions costs are uniformly applied. Other details include:

WIP beginning (60% for conversion) 17,500 units
Units started 114,500 units
Units completed and transferred out 111,700 units
WIP ending (30% for conversion) 20,300 units
Beginning WIP direct materials $22,300
Beginning WIP conversion costs $19,700
Costs of materials added $370,000
Costs of conversion added $280,000

What is the total cost of units completed and transferred out?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

For materials

Equivalent completed units = Completed units + WIP ending

= 111,700 + 20,300

= 132,000 units

Cost of materials = Beginning WIP + Cost of materials added

= 22,300 + 370,000

= $392,300

Cost of material per units = 392,300 ÷ 132,000

= $2.97197

For conversions

Equivalent completed units = Completed units + WIP ending

= 111,700 + 20,300 × 30%

= 117,790 units

Cost of Conversion = Beginning WIP + Cost of conversion added

= 19,700 + 280,000

= $299,700

Cost of conversion per units = 299,700 ÷ 117,790

= $2.54436

Total cost of units completed and transferred out

= 111,700 × (2.97197 + 2.54436)

= $616,174

Consider the experiments. Experiment 1: A study is done to determine which of two fuel mixtures allows a rocket to travel farther over a period of time. Rocket A, which requires additional equipment to keep it stable, is used to test one fuel mixture, and rocket B is used to test the other. Both rockets are identical aside from their mass. The results indicate that rocket B traveled farther than rocket A over the same period of time. Experiment 2: A double-blind experiment is performed to test whether a new drug is effective in lowering blood pressure. A random sample of subjects with high blood pressure is assigned to two groups. One group receives the new drug and the other group does not. Neither group is permitted to take any other medications during the experiment or to change their lifestyles in any way. The results of the experiment show that the drug is effective in lowering blood pressure.

Identify the experiment in which confounding occurs and the reason for its occurrence.

a. Neither experiment has a confounding variable.
b. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the fuel mixtures. Varying the fuel mixture could skew the results of the study and should be kept constant.
c. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the type of experiment. A double-blind experiment may increase the risk of the placebo effect and possibly skew the results.
d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.
e. Experiment 2 has a confounding variable related to the subjects used. Choosing a sample of subjects with high blood pressure instead of individuals with different blood pressure levels may confuse the results.

Answers

Answer:

d. Experiment 1 has a confounding variable related to the mass of the rockets. Any variation in mass may cause a discrepancy in the distance traveled.

Explanation:

Both experiments have confounding variables.  But the reasons given for the occurrence of the confounder in experiment 2 do not justify (c) and (e) as correct answers.  By definition, confounders are factors other than the independent variable that cause differences in outcome.  For experiment 1, the different masses of the two rockets affect the independent variable (fuel mixture) being studied, and actually cause the discrepancy in the distance traveled as indicated in answer (d).  Other examples of confounders are placebo, weather, age, and experimenter bias which a double-blind can eliminate.

Explanation:

Calculation for what royalty revenue should be

First step is to find the estimated amount for the second half of the year

Royalties for the second half =

15%*$30,000

Royalties for the second half= $4,500

Now let Compute for the total royalty revenue

Total royalty revenue for 20X5=$8,500+$4,500

Total royalty revenue for 20X5=$13,000

A remotely located air sampling station can be powered by solar cells or by running an electric line to the site and using conventional power. Solar cells will cost $12,600 to install and will have a useful life of 4 years with no salvage value. Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. are expected to be $1,400. A new power line will cost $11,000 to install, with power costs expected to be $800 per year. Since the air sampling project will end in 4 years, the salvage value of the line is considered to be zero. At an interest rate of 10% per year, which alternative should be selected on the basis of a future worth analysis?

Answers

Answer:

Since the total future worth of running an electric line of $19,353.42 is less than the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22, it implies that it will be cheaper to run an electric line than to use solar cells. Therefore, running an electric line should be selected.

Explanation:

The future worth analysis refers to an act of determining what the the worth of present amount of money or stream of money invested at an interest rate will after in some period or years to come.

To determine which one to select between solar cells and running an electric line, the we need to calculate the future worth of both and compared as follows:

a. Calculation of future value of solar cells

Calculation of future worth of $12,600 installation cost

FW of $12,600 = PW of $12,600 * (1 + r)^n ................ (1)

Where;

FW of $12,600 = Future worth of $12,600 installation cost = ?

PW of $12,600 = Present worth of $12,600 installation cost = $12,600

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:

FW of $12,600 = $12,600 * (1 + 0.10)^4

FW of $12,600 = $12,600 * 1.4641

FW of $12,600 = $18,447.66

Calculation of future worth of annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400

The future worth of annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400 can also be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:

FW of $1,400 = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)

Where,

FW of $1,400 = Future value of Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400 =?

M = Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. = $1,400

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (2), we have:

FW of $1,400 = $1,400 * (((1 + 0.01)^4 - 1) / 0.01)

FW of $1,400 = $1,400 * 4.060401

FW of $1,400 = $5,684.56

Calculation of total future worth of solar cells

This is calculated by simply adding the FW of $12,600 and FW of $1,400 as follows:

Total future worth of solar cells = FW of $12,600 + FW of $1,400 = $18,447.66 + $5,684.56 = $24,132.22

Therefore, the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22.

b. Calculation of future value of running an electric line

Calculation of future worth of $11,000 installation cost

FW of $11,000 = PW of $11,000 * (1 + r)^n ................ (3)

Where;

FW of $11,000 = Future worth of $11,000 installation cost = ?

PW of $11,000 = Present worth of $11,000 installation cost = $11,000

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (3), we have:

FW of $11,000 = $11,000 * (1 + 0.10)^4

FW of $11,000 = $11,000 * 1.4641

FW of $11,000 = $16,105.10

Calculation of future worth of expected annual power costs of $800

The future worth of expected annual power costs of $800 can also be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:

FW of $800 = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (4)

Where,

FW of $800 = Future value of expected annual power costs of $800 =?

M = Expected annual power costs = $800

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (4), we have:

FW of $800 = $800 * (((1 + 0.01)^4 - 1) / 0.01)

FW of $800 = $800 * 4.060401

FW of $800 = $3,248.32

Calculation of total future worth of running an electric line

This is calculated by simply adding the FW of $11,000 and FW of $800 as follows:

Total future worth of running an electric line = FW of $11,000 + FW of $800 = $16,105.10 + $3,248.32 = $19,353.42

Therefore, the total future worth of running an electric line is $19,353.42.

c. Conclusion

Since the total future worth of running an electric line of $19,353.42 is less than the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22, it implies that it will be cheaper to run an electric line than to use solar cells. Therefore, running an electric line should be selected.

What is an economy?

An economy is a region where products and services are produced, distributed, traded, and consumed. It is generally understood to be a social domain that places an emphasis on the behaviors, discourses, and tangible manifestations connected to the creation, utilization, and management of finite resources.

One's culture, values, education, technological advancement, history, social organization, political structure, legal system, and natural resources are all major determinants of an economy's processes.

These elements determine the parameters and conditions under which an economy operates in addition to providing background and content. In other words, the economic realm is a social domain made up of connected human behaviors and exchanges that cannot exist independently.

Individuals, companies, organizations, or governments all qualify as economic actors. When two persons or organizations agree on the value or price of the good or service being exchanged, which is typically stated in a particular currency, an economic transaction takes place.

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

Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.

Nominal GDP = quantity produced x current year price

Nominal GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Nominal GDP in year 2 = 5 x $4 = $20

Nominal GDP in year 3 = 7 x $6 = $42

Real GDP = quantity produced x base year price

Real GDP in year 1 = (3 x $2) = $6

Real GDP in year 2 = 5 x $2 = $10

Real GDP in year 3 = 7 x $2 = $14

GDP deflator = nominal GDP / Real GDP x 100

GDP deflator in year 1 = $6 / $6 x 100 = 100

GDP deflator in year 2 = $20 / $10 x 100= 200

GDP deflator in year 3 = $42 / 14 x 100 = 300

f Europe has a real GDP growth rate of 5%, and the United States has a real GDP growth rate of 6%, while money growth in Europe is 7%, and money growth in the United States is 5%, what would the monetary exchange rate model predict for exchange rates in the long run

Answers

Answer:

the dollar will appreciate by 3% against the euro

Explanation:

long run change in the exchange rate = (growth rate money supply Europe - growth rate money supply US) - (growth rate real GDP Europe - growth rate real GDP US) = (7% -  5%) - (5% - 6%) = 2% - (-1%) = 2% + 1% = 3%

This is a very simplistic approach to the monetary exchange rate model, but since we are given only this information, it's all that we can use.

One-year Treasury securities yield 4.85%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 5.2%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities

Answers

Answer:

5.025%

Explanation:

When we assume that the pure expectations theory is correct, then we are assuming that there is no risk premium involved. The formula to determine the yield for the 2 year treasury security:

(1 + i)² = (1 + 4.85%) x (1 + 5.2%)

(1 + i)² = 1.0485 x 1.052

(1 + i)² = 1.103022

√(1 + i)² = √1.103022

1 + i = 1.050248542

i = 0.050248542 = 5.025%

Answers

Answer:

Darby Company

1. Determination of the total variable costs and the total fixed costs for the current year.

Total variable costs $_____22,000,000

Total fixed costs $_____10,000,000

2. Determination of (a) the unit variable cost and (b) the unit contribution margin for the current year.

Unit variable cost $_____44 ($22,000,000/500,000)

Unit contribution margin $_____50 ($94 - $44)

3. Compute the break-even sales (units) for the current year:

Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Costs/Contribution per unit

= $10,000,000/$50 = 200,000 units

4. Compute the break-even sales (units) under the proposed program for the following year.

Break-even sales (units) = Fixed costs/Contribution per unit

= $11,800,000/$50 = 236,000

5. Determine the amount of sales (units) that would be necessary under the proposed program to realize the $15,000,000 of income from operations that were earned in the current year

Break-even sales (units) to achieve income target = (Fixed costs + Income target)/Contribution per unit

= ($11,800,000 + 15,000,000)/$50

= 536,000

6. Determine the maximum income from operations possible with the expanded plant.

The following model is a simplified version of the multiple regression model used by Biddle and Hamermesh (1990) to study the tradeoff between time spent sleeping and working and to look at other factors affecting sleep:

sleep = β0 + β1totwrk + β2educ + β3age + u,

where sleep and totwrk (total work) are measured in minutes per week and educ and age are measured in years. (See also Computer Exercise.)

(i) If adults trade off sleep for work, what is the sign of β1?

(ii) What signs do you think β2 and β3 will have?

(iii) Using the data in SLEEP75.RAW, the estimated equation is

= 3,638.25 - .148 totwrk - 11.13 educ + 2.20 age n = 706, R2 = .113.

If someone works five more hours per week, by how many minutes is sleep predicted to fall? Is this a large tradeoff?

(iv) Discuss the sign and magnitude of the estimated coefficient on educ.

(v) Would you say totwrk, educ, and age explain much of the variation in sleep? What other factors might affect the time spent sleeping? Are these likely to be correlated with totwrk?

Use the data in SLEEP75.RAW from Biddle and Hamermesh (1990) to study whether there is a tradeoff between the time spent sleeping per week and the time spent in paid work. We could use either variable as the dependent variable. For concreteness, estimate the model

sleep =β0+ β1totwrk+u, where sleep is minutes spent sleeping at night per week and totwrk is total minutes worked during the week.

(i) Report your results in equation form along with the number of observations and R2. What does the intercept in this equation mean?

(ii) If totwrk increases by 2 hours, by how much is sleep estimated to fall? Do you find this to be a large effect?

Answers

Answer:

1. I²1 will have a negative sign

This is because the more work the adults do, the less sleep they will utilize.

2. The sign of i²2 is likely to be negative. This is because due to the demands placed on them, more educated people are likely to sleep less. Also, general as age increases some people sleep less. While some others sleep more as it increases. So i²3 is a bit complicated to judge.

3. Using the data

^sleep = 3638.24-0.148toteork-11.13educ + 2.20age

N = 706 r² = 0.113

We will convert 5 hours to minutes = 60x5 = 300

Coefficient of totwork = 0.148

O.148x300 = 44.4 minutes

In a week approximately 45 minutes of less sleep is not too much a change.

4. We are to discuss the sign and magnitude of estimated education

More education indicates less sleeping time. This is obvious given the sign of the variable educ. It is negative, but it's effect is quite small. Magnitude is -11.13.

So as education increases by 1 year, expected sleeping time decreases by 11.13 minutes weekly.

5. R² is 0.113. the 3 predictor variables gives us 11.3% of total variations in sleep and rest. 88.7% is unexplained.

Some factors that might also affect it are general health, number and age of children are factors that could correlate with totwork

Suppose that, in a competitive market without government regulations, the equilibrium price of milk is $2.50 per gallon, and employees at grocery stores earn $21.50 per hour. Indicate the following whether each of the statements is an example of a price ceiling or a price floor and whether it results in a shortage or a surplus or has no effect on the price and quantity that prevail in the market.

a. There are many teenagers who would like to work at grocery stores, but the minimum-wage law sets the hourly wage at $25.00.
b. The government has instituted a legal minimum price of $2.30 per gallon for milk.
c. The government prohibits grocery stores from selling milk for more than $2.30 per gallon.

Answers

Explanation:

at price ceiling we have price set at a maximum level. it cannot be raised beyond this level. At binding price ceiling, price would be set to be lower than what is the equilibrium price level.  a non binding price ceiling is set to be higher than equilibrium level.

At price floor, price is set to a particular minimum level.  It cannot fall lower than this. At binding price floor, price is higher than equilibrium price' at non binding price floor, it is set to be lower than equilibrium price level.

this expalnation should help us to answer this question.

(a) Many teenagers would like to work but minimum wage is set at 25.00 we have Price floor, Binding

(b) Government instituted legal minimum price of a gallon of milk at $2.30 we have Price floor, Non-binding

(c) if the Government prohibits from selling milk for more than $2.30 per gallon then we have Price ceiling, Binding

d. Unanswered receives cash before the revenue has been generated.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answers are the options B and D: Pays cash before the expense has been incurred. And receives cash before the revenue has been generated.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the accounting field the term of "Deferral Adjustments" refers to those that the accountant does when they postpone the report of it in the income statement until a later period, so that means that when an event happens they might decide to postpone the report of that particular transaction doing what it is called "defer". Moreover, the two most common cases when the accountants use this technique are the ones choosen from the options, the cases B and D.

Seiko’s current salary is $85,000. Her marginal tax rate is 32 percent and she fancies European sports cars. She purchases a new auto each year. Seiko is currently a manager for an Idaho Office Supply. Her friend, knowing of her interest in sports cars, tells her about a manager position at the local BMW and Porsche dealer. The new position pays only $75,000 per year, but it allows employees to purchase one new car per year at a discount of $15,000. This discount qualifies as a nontaxable fringe benefit. In an effort to keep Seiko as an employee, Idaho Office Supply offers her a $10,000 raise. Answer the following questions about this analysis.
Problem 12-41
Part a a. Assuming it has a 21 percent marginal tax rate, what is the annual after-tax cost to Idaho Office Supply to provide Seiko with the $10,000 increase in salary?

Answers

Answer:

$7,900

Explanation:

Calculation for the annual after-tax cost

Additional salary = $ 10,000

Marginal tax rate=21%

First step is to find the income tax benefit

Income tax benefit = $ 10,000 x 21%

Income tax benefit= $ 2,100

Second step is to find the Annual after tax cost of additional salary

Annual after tax cost of additional salary = $ 10,000 - $2,100

Annual after tax cost of additional salary = $7,900

Therefore the annual after-tax cost will be $7,900

Etxuck327 Inc. sells a particular textbook for $39. Variable expenses are $28 per book. At the current volume of 49,000 books sold per year the company is just breaking even. Given these data, the annual fixed expenses associated with the textbook total:

Answers

Answer:

539,000.00  

Explanation:

As per the contribution margin analysis concept, the break-even point is obtained by dividing fixed cost by contribution margin per unit.

For Etuck327,

The selling price is $39

Variable expense is $28

Break-even in units is 49,000 books.

Contribution margin per unit = selling price - variable costs

=$39- $28

=$11

if Break-even = fixed cost/ contribution margin per unit, then

49,000= fixed cost / 11

fixed costs = 11 x 49000

Fixed costs = 539,000.00
