Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost. Last year, the company sold 60,000 of these balls, with the following results:
Sales (60,000 balls) $1,500,000
Variable expenses 900,000
Contribution margin 600,000
Fixed expenses 375,000
Net operating income $225,000
Required:
a. Compute the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls.
b. Compute the the degree of operating leverage at last year
Answer:
A. 37,500 balls
B.2.67
Explanation:
A. Compution for the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls.
First step is to calculate the Contribution margin
Selling price $25 100%
Variable expenses $15 60%
Contribution margin $10 40%
($25-$15)
Now let calculate the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls using this formula
Unit sales to break even=Fixed expenses/Unit contribution margin
Let plug in the formula
Unit sales to break even=$375,000/$10
Unit sales to break even= 37,500 balls
Therefore the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls will be 37,500 balls
b. Computation for the degree of operating leverage at last year
Using this formula
Degree of operating leverage =Contribution margin/Net operating income
Let plug in the formula
Degree of operating leverage=$600,000/$225,000=
Degree of operating leverage = 2.67 (rounded)
Therefore the degree of operating leverage at last year will be 2.67
Countries' real GDP per capita growth rates differ largely due to disparities in the rates at which they accumulate ____________ , as well as the rate of _________. In many countries, growth has been achieved through high rates _________ and________ spending.
Answer:
Human and physical capital; technological change; savings; investment.
Explanation:
The Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is the measure of the total market value of all finished goods and services made within a country during a specific period.
Simply stated, GDP is a measure of the total income of all individuals in an economy and the total expenses incurred on the economy's output of goods and services in a particular country. The Gross Domestic Products (GDP) of a country's economy gives an insight to it's social well-being, these includes;
I. Real Gross Domestic Product should be adjusted for any price level change using a price index. This simply means, it is adjusted for inflation to measure the value of goods and services produced by a country in a specific period of time.
Mathematically, [tex]{Real \; GDP} = \frac{Nominal \; GDP}{GDP \; deflator}[/tex]
Countries' real GDP per capita growth rates differ largely due to disparities in the rates at which they accumulate human and physical capital, as well as the rate of technological change. In many countries, growth has been achieved through high rates savings and investment spending.
Hence, an inflationary gap, also known as the expansionary gap in economics is used to measure the difference between the gross domestic product (GDP) and the current level of Real Gross Domestic Products that exists when a country's economy is gauged at a full employment rate.
Metallica Bearings, Inc., is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 11 years because the firm needs to plow back its earnings to fuel growth. The company will then pay a dividend of $16.25 per share 12 years from today and will increase the dividend by 5.5 percent per year thereafter. The required return on the stock is 13.5 percent. What is the price of the stock 11 years from today?
Answer:
P11 = $203.125
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock in year 11. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
D1 is dividend expected for the next period /year
g is the growth rate
r is the required rate of return or cost of equity
P11 = 16.25 / (0.135 - 0.055)
P11 = $203.125

The Osgood county refuse department runs two recycling centers. Center 1 costs $40 to run for an eight hour day. In a typical day, 140 pounds of glass and 60 pounds of aluminum are deposited at Center 1. Center 2 costs $50 for an eight hour day, with 100lbs of glass and 180lbs of aluminum deposited per day. The county has a commitment to deliver at least 1540lbs of glass and 1440lbs of aluminum per week. How many days per week should the county open each center to minimize its cost and still meet the requirements?
Answer:
Center 1 should be open 7 days a week, and center 2 should be open 6 days a week. Total cost = $580
Explanation:
minimize the following equation 40A + 50B
where:
A = center 1
B = center 2
constraints:
140A + 100B ≥ 1540
60A + 180B ≥ 1440
A ≤ 7
B ≤ 7
A, B ≥ 0
using Solver, the optimal solution is 7A + 6B = 580

a. $150,000
b. $169,000
c. $210,000
d. $530,000
Answer:
a. $150,000
Explanation:
Calculation for What amount of gross profit should Black Bear recognize in 2017 using the percentage-of-completion method
First step is to calculate the Total estimated contract costs at 2016
Total estimated contract costs at 2016=$3,780,000+$1,620,000
Total estimated contract costs at 2016=$5,400,000
Second step is to calculate the Percentage of completion
Percentage of completion = $3,780,000 / ($3,780,000+$1,620,000)
Percentage of completion =$3,780,000 / $5,400,000
Percentage of completion =0.7*100
Percentage of completion =70%
Now let calculate the gross profit
Using this formula
Gross profit=Percentage of completion *(Contract Price-Total estimated contract costs at 2016)
Let plug in the formula
Gross profit=70%*($6,000,000-$5,400,000)
Gross profit=70%*$600,000
Gross profit=$150,000
Therefore amount of gross profit should Black Bear recognize in 2017 using the percentage-of-completion method will be $150,000
On July 1, 2013, a Japanese company enters into a forward contract to buy $1 million with yen on January 1, 2014. On September 1, 2013, it enters into a forward contract to sell $1 million on January 1, 2014. Describe the profit or loss the company will make in dollars as a function of the forward exchange rates on July 1, 2013 and September 1, 2013.
Answer:
Profit (loss) from the contract = (FER2 - FER1) million yen
Explanation:
Let FER1 represents the forward exchange rates for the contracts entered into by the company on July 1, 2013, and let FER2 represents the forward exchange rates for the contracts entered into by the company on September 1, 2013.
Also, let SPOT represents the spot rate on January 1, 2014.
Since all exchange rates are measured as yen per dollar, we therefore have:
First contract profit = (SPOT - FER1) million yen
Second contract profit = (FER2 - SPOT) million yen
Profit (loss) from the contract = First contract profit + Second contract profit
Removing the million yen first and later add to the final answer, we have:
Profit (loss) from the contract = (SPOT - FER1) + (FER2 - SPOT)
Profit (loss) from the contract = SPOT - FER1 + FER2 - SPOT
Profit (loss) from the contract = (FER2 - FER1) million yen
Therefore, the profit or loss the company will make in dollars as a function of the forward exchange rates on July 1, 2013 and September 1, 2013 is Profit (loss) from the contract = (FER2 - FER1) million yen.
MacGuffins have a demand function of QD = 70 – P and a supply function of QS = 2P + 10. Determine the price at equilibrium
Answer: 20
Explanation:
For us to calculate the equilibrium price, we must equate the quantity demanded with the quantity supplied. In this case, Qd = Qs where,
QD = 70 – P
QS = 2P + 10.
QD = QS
70 - P = 2P + 10
70 - 10 = 2P + P
60 = 3P
P = 60/3
P = 20
The equilibrium price is 20

Problem 10-3A The following section is taken from Hardesty's balance sheet at December 31, 2016. Current liabilities Interest payable $ 46,500 Long-term liabilities Bonds payable (9%, due January 1, 2020) 565,000 Interest is payable annually on January 1. The bonds are callable on any annual interest date. (a) Journalize the payment of the bond interest on January 1, 2017. (b) Assume that on January 1, 2017, after paying interest, Hardesty calls bonds having a face value of $160,000. The call price is 107. Record the redemption of the bonds. (c) Prepare the adjusting entry on December 31, 2017, to accrue the interest on the remaining bonds.
Answer:
Hardesty
a) January 1, 2017:
Debit Interest payable $46,500
Credit Cash $46,500
To record the payment of interest on bonds.
b) January 1, 2017:
Debit Long-term liabilities Bonds payable $160,000
Debit Bonds Redemption Expense $11,200
Credit Cash $171,200
To record the redemption of bonds at 107.
c) December 31, 2017:
Debit Interest Expense $36,450
Credit Interest Payable $36,450
To record interest expense for balance of bonds.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current liabilities
Interest payable $ 46,500
Long-term liabilities Bonds payable (9%, due January 1, 2020) $565,000
Interest payment date = January 1
Face value of bonds called = $160,000
Call price = 107
Bond redemption expense = ($160,000 * 107/100) - $160,000 = $11,200
Interest expense for 2017:
= ($565,000 - $160,000) * 9% = $36,450

You are asked to study the causal effect of hours spent on employee training (measured in hours per worker per week) in a manufacturing plant on the productivity of its workers (output per worker per hour). Describe EITHER ONE a-an ideal randomized controlled experiment to measure this causal effect.
Answer and Explanation:
An ideal randomized controlled experiment to measure the productivity of the factory would be established in the following way: owners of all sectors of the factory would be selected. This selection would be done completely randomly so that it was possible to select individuals different from each other. These employees would be divided into two groups. The first group would receive training, the second group would not receive training.
In this case, the productivity of one group would be compared to the productivity of the other, after both groups were submitted to a period of work, after the first group received training.
Now imagine that Tiger Pros is 60% financed with equity and 40% financed with debt. Cost of equity is 16.5% and after-tax cost of debt is 11%. It has the same perpetual EBIT of $500 a year but has a $120 perpetual interest expense. The firm is subject to a 21% tax rate. What is the market value of Tiger Pros
Answer:
$2,762.24
Explanation:
The computation of the market value as follows:
But before that WACC is
WACC is
= Weight of Equity × Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt × Cost of Debt × (1 -Tax Rate)
= 60% × 16.5% + 40% × 11%
= 14.30%
Now the Market Value is
= (EBIT) × (1 - Tax rate) ÷ WACC
= $500 × (1 - 21%) ÷ 14.30%
= $2,762.24
Frederick Group uses ABC to account for its chrome wheel manufacturing process. Company managers have identified four manufacturing activities that incur manufacturing overhead costs: materials handling, machine setup, insertion of parts, and finishing. The budgeted activity costs for the upcoming year and their allocation bases are as follows:
Activity Total budgeted manufacturing overhead cost Allocation base
Material handeling 8700 Number of parts
Machine setup 4650 Number of setups
Insertion of parts 49300 Number of parts
Finishing 75600 Finishing direct labour hours
Total 138250
Frederick Group expects to produce 1,000 chrome wheels during the year.
The wheels are expected to use 2,900 parts, require 15 setups, and consume 1,800 hours of finishing time. Job 420
Job 420 used 150 parts, required 4 setups, and consumed 120 finishing hours.
Job 510 used 500 parts, required 5 setups, and consumed 320 finishing hours.
Requirements
1.Compute the cost allocation rate for each activity.
2. Compute the manufacturing overhead cost that should be assigned to Job 420.
3. Compute overhead cost that should be assigned to Job510.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities allocation rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Material handeling= 8,700/2,900= $3 per part
Machine setup= 4,650/15= $310 per setup
Insertion of parts= 49,300/2,900= $17 per part
Finishing= 75,600/1,800= $42 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 420:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Material handeling= 3*150= $450
Machine setup= 310*4= $1,240
Insertion of parts= 17*150= $2,550
Finishing= 42*120= $5,040
Total allocated costs= $9,280
Finally, allocated costs to Job 510:
Material handeling= 3*500= $1,500
Machine setup= 310*5= $1,550
Insertion of parts= 17*500= $8,500
Finishing= 42*320= $13,440
Total allocated costs= $24,990

The following Information applies to the questions displayed below.) Bargain Rental Car offers rental cars in an off-airport location near a major tourist destination in California. Management would like to better understand the variable and fixed portions of It car washing costs. The company operates its own car wash facility in which each rental car that is returned is thoroughly cleaned before being released for rental to another customer. Management belleves that the variable portion of its car washing costs relates to the number of rental returns. Accordingly, the following data have been compiled:
Month Rental Returns Car Wash Costs
January 2,380 $ 10,825
February 2,421 $ 11,865
March 2,586 $ 11,332

Using least-squares regression, estimate the variable cost per rental return and the monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars. (Round Fixed cost to the nearest whole dollar amount and the Varlable cost per unit to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
a. The variable cost per rental return is $4.04.
b. The monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars is $1,376.
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of Rental Returns (x), Car Wash Costs (y), xy, and x^2.
Since Σ = Total of or summation of, we can therefore obtain the following from the attached excel file:
Σx = 34,854
Σy = 157,317
Σxy = 462,541,971
Σx^2 = 102,623,516
N = Number of months = 12
a. calculation of variable cost per rental return
To calculate the variable cost per rental return, the following formula is used:
Variable cost per rental return = (NΣxy − ΣxΣy) /((NΣx²) − (Σx)²) ……………… (1)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (1), we have:
Variable cost per rental return = ((12 * 462,541,971) - (34,854 * 157,317)) / (((12 * 102,623,516) - 34,854^2)
Variable cost per rental return = 4.03917240317595
Rounding to 2 decimal places as required, we have:
Variable cost per rental return = $4.04
Therefore, the variable cost per rental return is $4.04.
b. Calculation of monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars
To calculate the monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars, the following formula is used:
Fixed Cost per month = {Σy - (Variable cost per rental return * Σx) / N ....... (2)
Substituting the relevant values into equation (2), we have:
Fixed Cost per month = (157,317 - (4.04 * 34,854)) / 12
Fixed Cost per month = $1,375.57
Rounding to the nearest whole dollar amount as required, we have:
Fixed Cost per month = $1,376
Therefore, the monthly fixed cost Incurred to wash cars is $1,376.
The variable cost per rental return is $4.04 and the fixed cost per month is $1378.
The following can be depicted from the question
Σx = 34,854
Σy = 157,317
Σxy = 462,541,971
Σx² = 102,623,516
N = number of months = 12
Variable cost per rental return will be:
= ( N Σxy − Σx Σy)/{(N Σx²) − (Σx)²}
= {( 12 × 462,541,971) - (34,854 × 157,317) } / {(12 ×102,623,516) - (34,854)²}
= (5,550,503,652 - 5,483,126,718) / (1231482192 - 1214801316)
= 67,376,934 / 16680876
= $4.04
Fixed Cost per month will be:
= {Σy - ( Variable cost per rental return × Σx )/N
= {157,317 - (4.04 × 34,854)} /12
= ( 157,317 - 140,810.16) /12
= $1378

Explanation:
End of period adjustments are made to accounts in order to bring them in line with the accrual concept and matching principle of accounting. These principles require that expenses and revenues for the period are matched in order to determine the appropriate profit generated for the period. The implication is that transactions are recorded when they are incurred and not when cash is exchanged. For example, if rent expense is incurred for the year and payment is made in the following year, the expense must be recognized in the current year. The same applies to revenue.
