Telecomp is a U.S.-based manufacturer of cellular telephones. It is planning to build a new manufacturing and distribution facility in either South Korea, China, Taiwan, Poland, or Mexico. The cost of the facility will differ between countries and will even vary within countries depending on the economic and political climate, including monetary exchange rates. The company has estimated the facility cost (in $ millions) in each country under three different future economic/political climates as follows.Economic/Political Climate Country Decline Same Improve South Korea 21.7 19.1 15.2 China 19.0 18.5 17.6 Taiwan 19.2 17.1 14.9 Poland 22.5 16.8 13.8 Mexico 25.0 21.2 12.5 Determine the best decision using the following decision criteria. (Note that since the payoff is cost, the maximax criteria becomes minimax and maximin becomes minimax.)
a. Maximin
b. Minimax
c. Hurwicz ( 0.40)
d. Equal likelihood

Answers

Answer:

a. Maximin =  19.0

b. Minimax  = 17.6

c. Hurwicz ( 0.40)  = Taiwan

d. Equal likelihood = Taiwan

Explanation:

Remember, we are told to: Note that since the payoff is cost, the maximax criteria becomes minimax and maximin becomes minimax

a) Maximin: Since the payoff is cost, we begin by determining the maximum cost for each alternative and then selecting the one which gives the minimum of these maximums. (minimax)

b) Minimax: Since the payoff is cost, we begin by determining the minimum cost for each alternative and then selecting the one which gives the maximum of these minimums. (maximin).

c) Hurwicz (0.40): In this method, we add and multiply each payoff value by alpha (0.4).

South Korea = 15.2 (0.4) + 21.7 (0.6) = 19.1 ( remember, in $ millions)

China = 17.6 (0.4) + 19.0 (0.6) = 18.44

Taiwan = 14.9 (0.4) + 19.2 (0.6) = 17.48

Poland = 13.8 (0.4) + 22.5 (0.6) = 19.02

Mexico = 12.5 (0.4) + 25.0 (0.6) = 20

From the values above we select the minimum outcome since the company is looking at saving cost. Which is Taiwan; having the lowest cost of $17.48 million.

d) Using the formula [tex]\frac{P_{1} +P_{2}+P_{3}...P_{n} }{n}[/tex] where P = payoffs value, n = number of events.

South Korea =  15.2 + 21.7 + 19.1 /3 = 18.66

China = 17.6 + 19.0 + 18.5 /3 = 18.36

Taiwan = 14.9 + 19.2 +17.1 /3 = 17.06

Poland = 13.8 + 22.5 + 16.8 /3 = 17.7

Mexico = 12.5 + 25.0 + 21.2 /3 = 19.56

Taiwan should be selected since it has the lowest cost of $17.06 million.

Explanation:

Computation for the Operating income for Winston Corporation as a whole if the Blur Division were dropped

Operating income (loss) for Blink Division $56,000

Less Allocated common costs Blur Division (31,500)

Operating income for Winston Corporation $24,500

Therefore the Operating income for Winston Corporation as a whole if the Blur Division were dropped would be $24,500

On December 31, 2017, Wayne Sparks Company had 600,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Sparks issued a 5% stock dividend on June 30, 2018. On September 30, 2018, 20,000 shares of common stock were reacquired as treasury stock. What is the appropriate number of shares to be used in the basic earnings per share computation for 2018

Answers

Answer: $625,000

Explanation:

The number of shares to use will be the Weighted average of the number of common shares in the company as at December 2018.

5% stock had been issued so common stock increases to;

= 600,000 * ( 1 + 5%)

= 630,000 shares

The treasury stock is to be deducted from the amount above and was only reacquired on Sept. 30 so the weighted average is;

= 20,000 * 3/12 months

= 5,000 shares

Number of shares = 630,000 - 5,000 = $625,000

A local taxi company advertises being able to make cabs available to riders within 5 minutes. They have recruited several cab drivers to ensure that they meet this promise. Which dimension of the customer utility function they are appealing to

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Timing

Explanation:

The utility function measures the level of satisfaction or the welfare of a consumer, as a function of the consumption of real goods or services. The dimensions of consumer utility function include; Fit, Timing, Location, performance, and price.

Fit: This has to do with the design of a product, satisfying a context-specific problem. That is the product "fits" the need of the consumer

Timing: This covers the length of time between when the consumer places an order to when the order arrives. A short timing is satisfying to the consumer. In this example, the timing of 5 minutes or comparatively ideal for cabs being available to riders.

Location: The location entails the extent of coverage within a country or region that the product can be accessed. Particularly in rural settings.

Performance: performance has to do with the efficiency of the product/service in the process of it being used

Price: price is the amount at which the product is made available to the consumers.

Main Elimination Journal

Explanation:

Goodwill is the excess of Purchase Consideration over the Net Assets Acquired.

Purchase Consideration  (70,000 shares × $5) = $350,000

Part 1

Calculation of Net Assets Acquired

Retained Earnings                                             $1,200,000

Common Stock                                                  $1,300,000

Revaluation                                                           $100,000

Total Net Assets Acquired                               $2,600,000

Therefore,

Net Assets Attributable to Fortuna Company = $2,600,000 × 80%

                                                                            = $ 2,080,000

Purchase Consideration $350,000 < Net Assets Acquired ($ 2,080,000), therefore we have a gain situation of $1,730,000

Part 2

2a.

Calculation of Net Assets Acquired

Retained Earnings                                             $1,200,000

Common Stock                                                  $1,300,000

Revaluation                                                           $300,000

Total Net Assets Acquired                               $2,800,000

Therefore,

Net Assets Attributable to Fortuna Company = $2,800,000 × 80%

                                                                            = $ 2,240,000

Purchase Consideration $350,000 < Net Assets Acquired ($ 2,240,000), therefore we have a gain situation of $1,890,000

2b.

Calculation of Non - Controlling Interest

Note : I have elected to measure Non-Controlling Interest as proportionate to the fair value of Net Identified Assets Acquired !

Non - Controlling Interest = Non Controlled Interest % × Total Net Assets Acquired  

                                           = 20 % × $2,800,000

                                           = $560,000

2c.

Consolidation is 100 % of Parent/ Acquirer and 100% of subsidiary (Acquired) combined.

Assets :

Fortuna Company = $6,700,000 + $350,000     = $7,050,000

Acappella Company = $2,500,000 + $300,000 = $2,800,000

Total Assets                                                            = $9,850,000

Liabilities :

Fortuna Company                                                  = $3,000,000

Acappella Company                                                = $ 800,000

Total Liabilities                                                        = $3,800,000

You predict that interest rates are about to fall. Which bond will give you the highest capital gain

Answers

Answer: d. Zero coupon, long maturity

Explanation:

It is generally held that when interest rates decrease in the market, the price of bonds will increase because people will seek bonds as they offer a steady rate of return.

A longer maturity bond will enable you to take advantage of this decrease in interest rates over a longer period because you get to discount the bond at a lower rate over a longer period so it is better.

A zero coupon long maturity bond is the best because when it is discounted at this lower rate, it will bring back a higher price than the rest of the bonds

A. Paid and recorded wages of $140,000 during Year 1; however, at the end of Year 1, three days' wages are unpaid and have not yet been recorded because the weekly payroll will not be paid to employees until January 6 of Year 2. Wages for the three days are $4,900.
B. Collected rent revenue of $4,800 on December 12 of Year 1 for office space that Walnut rented to another company. The rent collected was for 30 days from December 12 of Year 1 to January 10 of Year 2. Record the collection of rent on December 12.
Required:
1. With respect to wages, provide the adjusting entry required at the end of year 1 and the journal entry required on January 6 of year 2.
2. With respect to rent revenue, provide the journal entry for the collection of rent on December 10 and the adjusting entry required on December 31.

Answers

Answer:

Walnut Company

1. Adjusting Journal Entry:

December 31, Year 1:

Debit Wages Expense $4,900

Credit Wages Payable $4,900

To accrue unpaid wages at the end of the year.

General Journal Entry:

January 6, Year 2:

Debit Wages Payable $4,900

Credit Cash Account $4,900

To record the payment of accrued wages.

2. General Journal Entry:

December 12, Year 1:

Debit Cash Account $4,800

Credit Deferred Rent Revenue $4,800

To record the receipt of rent in advance.

Adjusting Journal Entry:

December 31, Year 1:

Debit Deferred Rent Revenue $3,200

Credit Rent Revenue $3,200

To adjust for rent revenue earned for 20 days.

Explanation:

The rent revenue of $4,800 according to the question is for 30 days.  December 12 to December 31 has 20 days while January 1 to January 10 has 10 days.  So the rent revenue for Year 1 is computed as $4,800 * 20/30 = $3,200 while the remaining balance will be for rent revenue in Year 1 ($4,800 * 10/30).

Task C has two immediate predecessors, Tasks A and B. Task C also has two immediate followers, Tasks D and E. Task A has an early finish time of 3 days, and Task B has an early finish time of 5 days. Task D has a late start time of 10 days and Task E has a late start time of 8 days. Task C is 2 days long. What is the early finish time of Task C

Answers

Answer:

7 days

Explanation:

Calculation for the early finish time of Task C

First step is to find the Early Start of task C

Using this formula

Early Start of task C = MAX (Early Finish of task A, Early Finish of task B)

Let plug in the formula

Early Start of task C= MAX(3,5)

Early Start of task C = 5

Now let calculate the Early Finish time of Task C

Using this formula

Earliest Finish = Earliest Start + Activity Duration

Let plug in the formula

Earliest Finish of task C = 5 + 2

Earliest Finish of task C = 7 days

Therefore the early finish time of Task C will be 7 days

The early finish time of task C is the sum of the early start time and the activity duration of the task. Hence, the early finish time of task C is 7 days.

Given the Parameters :

Activity time of task C = 2 days Early finish, Task A = 3 days Early finish, Task B = 5 days

The early finish time of task C :

Early start time possible + Activity time of task C

Maximum value of the finish time of the preceeding task :

Early start time of task C = maximum(3, 5)

Early start time of task C = 5 days

Early finish time of C = 5 days + Activity time

Early finish time of task C = 5 days + 2 days = 7 days

Therefore, the early finish time of task C is 7 days

World Company expects to operate at 80% of its productive capacity of 67,500 units per month. At this planned level, the company expects to use 32,400 standard hours of direct labor. Overhead is allocated to products using a predetermined standard rate of 0.600 direct labor hour per unit. At the 80% capacity level, the total budgeted cost includes $68,040 fixed overhead cost and $408,240 variable overhead cost. In the current month, the company incurred $472,000 actual overhead and 29,400 actual labor hours while producing 51,000 units.

Required:
a. Compute the overhead volume variance.
b. Compute the overhead controllable variance.

Answers

Answer:

1. $3,780 Unfavorable

2. $453,600 Overhead controllable variance

Explanation:

Req. 1

Fixed Overhead Applied

Fixed OH per DL hr. ($68,040 ÷ $32,400) = 2.1

Standard DL hours = 0.60 * $51,000 = $30,600

Fixed OH applied = 2.1 * $30,600 = $64,260

Volume variance.

Total fixed OH applied $64,260

Total budgeted fixed OH $68,040

Fixed OH volume variance $3,780 Unfavorable

Req. 2

Overhead controllable variance.

Total actual overhead $ 472,000

Flexible budget overhead

Variable = $408,240 ÷ $32,400 = 12.6

=> $30,600 * 12.6 = $385,560

Fixed. $68,040

Answer:

the list of assets is missing, so I looked for a similar question and found the following:

MACRS depreciation for machinery is 10 years, and the depreciation % for the first year using the half year convention is 10% ⇒ depreciation expense = $70,000 x 10% = $7,000

MACRS depreciation for computer equipment is 5 years, and the depreciation % for the first year using the half year convention is 20% ⇒ depreciation expense = $10,000 x 20% = $2,000

MACRS depreciation for the delivery truck is 5 years, and the depreciation % for the first year using the half year convention is 20% ⇒ depreciation expense = $23,000 x 20% = $4,600

MACRS depreciation for furniture is 7 years, and you can use the mid-quarter convention since furniture represents more than 40% of total assets placed in to service. The depreciation % for the first year, second quarter  using the mid-quarter convention is 17.85% (the half year convention depreciation rate is 14.29%) ⇒ depreciation expense = $150,000 x 17.85% = $26,775

total depreciation expense = $40,375

Explanation:

In a Las Vegas casino, an employee discovered a flaw in the accounting system. The accounts payable clerk discovered that he was able to change the names of vendors in the computer system to his name. As a result, the employee could create false invoices and then cut a check for the false invoice. The name on the check would be changed to the name of the employee. After the check was printed, the name in the system could then be changed back to the appropriate vendor. The check register would show only the name of the vendor. The fraudulent employee had authorization to sign checks under $1,000. By writing small checks, the employee was able to defraud the company of $10,000. This fraud was caught by accident then the employee of another department was looking through the vendor list on her computer after the fraudulent employee had changed the vendor name to his name. A few entries later, the vendor name changed again. She wondered how this could occur and asked her supervisor. Soon after, the fraudulent employee was caught.
1. What kind of fraud is being committed?2. What percent of frauds are of this type?3. How could this fraud have been prevented?

Answers

Answer:

- This type of fraud is check tampering

- It amounts to 20.1% of fraud cases in small businesses, and 8.4% of fraud in large businesses

- This type of fraud can be prevented by rotating employees that handle check issuance to vendors, review of budget versus actual expenditure, monitoring of audit trail to see if beneficiary was changed, daily statement download for reconciliation, and restriction of functions for example a employee that issues checks should not also reconcile bank statement.

Explanation:

Check tampering is a very common fraud that involves changing the beneficiary of a valid check so that funds can be diverted.

In the given scenario the accounts payable clerk was able to change checks to his name in order to divert $10,000. This was only discovered by chance when an employee noticed the change in name.

Various internal control measures can be taken to prevent this and they are listed above

Terrill Company finds its records are incomplete concerning a piece of machinery used in its plant. According to the company records, the machinery has an estimated useful life of 10 years and an estimated salvage value of $ 24,000. It has recorded $ 12,000 in depreciation each year using the straight-line method. If the accumulated depreciation account shows a balance of $ 72,000, what is the original cost of the machinery and how many years remain to be depreciated?

Answers

Answer:

original cost $144,000: Remaining years 4 years

Explanation:

Depreciation is the process of expensing the value of an asset over its useful life. The straight-line method allocates an equal amount of expense as depreciation in every of the gainful life.

The calculation of depreciation involves first determining the depreciable amounts.

The depreciable amount = asset cost - salvage value. In this case, the salvage value is  $ 24,000, but the asset cost is not given.

Depreciation per year= depreciable amount divided by lifespan

For Terrill company

$12,000 =depreciable amount /10

Depreciable amount = $12,000 x  10

=$120,000

If depreciable amount = asset cost - salvage value, then

$120,000 = asset cost - $24,000

Asset cost = $120,000 + $24,000

Asset cost = $144,000

Accumulated depreciation of $72,000 implies the asset has been depreciated $72,000/$12,000 times

=72,000/12000

= 6 times or six year.

The asset has a lifespan of 10 years; then it has four years remaining(10-6)

A 50-kilowatt gas turbine has an investment cost of $40,000. It costs another $14,000 for shipping, insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks. The operation and maintenance expense for this turbine is $450 per year. Additionally, the hourly fuel expense for running the turbine is $7.50 per hour, and the turbine is expected to operate 3,000 hours each year. The cost of dismantling and disposing of the turbine at the end of its 8-year life is $8,000.

Required:
a. If the MARR is 15% per year, what is the annual equivalent life-cycle cost of the gas turbine?
b. What percent of annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel?

Answers

Answer:

The annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = -$35,569.8

The percentage  fuel cost = 63.25%

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let's start with the initial investment cost, which can be expressed by using the formula:

Initial investment cost = Investment cost of turbine + cost including shipping,  insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks.)

Initial investment cost = $40,000 + $14000

Initial investment cost = $54000

However, The annual fuel expense = hourly fuel expense for running turbine × total number of operating hour per year

The annual fuel expense = $7.50 × 3000

The annual fuel expense = $22,500

Therefore, the total operating cost per year = operating & maintenance cost per year + fuel expenses per year

the total operating cost per year = $(450 + 22500)

the total operating cost per year = $22,950

If the minimum acceptable rate of return MARR is 15%, then the number of years is 8 years

Therefore, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AC) of the gas turbine can be computed as follows:

AC(15%) = -54000 (A/P, 15%, 8) - $22950-$8000(A/F,15%,8)

where;

(A/P,15%,8) = annual worth factor of a present worth

(A/F,15%,8) = annual worth factor of future worth for 8 years and 15% interest rate.

If we use the discrete compounding table when i = 15%;

Value of (A/P,15%,8) = 0.229

Value of (A/F,15%,8) = 0.0729

AC(15%) = -$54,000(0.2229) - $22,950 -$8000(0.0729)

AC(15%) = -$12,036.6 -$22950 -$583.2

AC(15%) = -$35,569.8

Therefore, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = -$35,569.8

b.

The percentage of the annual life-cycle cost related to the fuel can be calculated by using the formula :

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = \dfrac{fuel \ cost \ per \ year}{total \ annual \ life \ cycle \ cost }\times 100\%}[/tex]

Replacing our values from above, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = \dfrac{\$22500}{\$35,569.8}\times 100\%}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\% \ fuel \ cost = 0.6325\times 100\%}[/tex]

The percentage  fuel cost = 63.25%

Based on the given information, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost of the gas turbine is "$35,569.80," while the percent of the annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel is "65.87%."

This is based on the calculation below:

Given that: Initial investment cost => Investment cost of turbine + cost including shipping, insurance, site preparation, fuel lines, and fuel storage tanks.

Hence, we have the following:

Initial investment cost = $40,000 + $14,000;

=> Initial investment cost = $54,000.

On the other hand, The annual fuel expense = hourly fuel expense for running turbine × total number of operating hour per year;

Thus, we have the following:

The annual fuel expense = $7.50 × 3,000;

The annual fuel expense = $22,500.

Also, since, the total operating cost per year = operating & maintenance cost per year + fuel expenses per year;

We have the following:

the total operating cost per year = $(450 + 22,500);

the total operating cost per year = $22,950.

Therefore, given that the minimum acceptable rate of return MARR is 15%, then the number of years is 8 years.

Then, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AC) of the gas turbine is measured as:

AC (15%) = -54,000 (A/P, 15%, 8) - $22,950 - $8,000 (A/F,15%,8);

Here, we have the following details;

(A/P,15%,8) = annual worth factor of a present worth;

(A/F,15%,8) = annual worth factor of future worth for 8 years and 15% interest rate.

This, given that we use the discrete compounding table when i = 15%;

We have the following:

Value of (A/P,15%,8) = 0.229;

Value of (A/F,15%,8) = 0.0729.

AC (15%) = -$54,000 (0.2229) - $22,950 -$8,000 (0.0729);

AC(15%) = -$12,036.60 -$22,950 -$583.20;

AC(15%) = -$35,569.80.

Hence, the annual equivalent life-cycle cost (AW) of gas turbine = $35,569.80.

Similarly, the percent of the annual life-cycle cost is related to fuel is measured as = ($35,569.8 ÷ $54,000) × 100

=> 65.87%.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the lifecycle cost is essential when measuring the productivity of a project.

Frank Edwards is head basketball coach at a small regional state university, a campus of the state’s main university system. He has just had a visit with Walter Johnson, a local high school athlete who is clearly one of the state’s blue chip basketball prospects. Frank desperately needs a player of Walter’s potential to turn his mediocre team around, but he realizes that it won’t be easy to sign him. He is confident that he made it clear to Walter that there is a scholarship available for Walter if he wants it. He also knows that Walter needs a scholarship to be able to go to college. However, an article in the Sunday Sports section reports that two of the major state university coaches (larger schools upstate, with nationally known basketball programs) also intend to actively recruit Walter. Coach Edwards should take which of the following actions?
A. Send Walter a written and notarized offer of the scholarship.B. Write Walter's parents, stressing that the scholarship will cover all of his tuition, room and board, and book expenses.C. Write a letter to Walter stressing to him the value of a college education.D. Talk to Walter again, stressing the likelihood that he would make the starting five in his freshman year.E. Do nothing. Walter will probably sign with him anyway.
