Fill in the missing numbers in the following income statement:

Sales $645,000
Costs 346,500
Depreciation 97,200
EBIT $
Taxes (35%)
Net income $

Required:
a. What is the OCF?
b. What is the depreciation tax shield?

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

EBIT = Sales - Cost - Depreciation

= $645,000 - $346,500 - $97,200

= $201,300

Taxes = EBIT × 35%

= $201,300 × 35%

= $70,455

Net income = EBIT - Taxes

= $201,300 - $70,455

= $130,845

1. OCF

= Net income + Depreciation

= $130,845 + $97,200

= $228,045

2. Depreciation tax shield

= Depreciation × Tax rate

=$97,200 × 35%

= $34,020

You took ACC111 where the Owner's Equity section consisted of Capital and Owner's Withdrawals. Now that you've seen the corporate structure of the Owner's Equity section, how do the individual items in the Sole Proprietor's Equity section translate to the Corporate Equity section? For example, Revenues are closed out into Capital for Sole Proprietor, Where does it go for Corporate?

Answers

Answer:

Revenues are closed out to Equity (Retained Earnings) for Corporate.

Explanation:

Actually, for both Sole Proprietor and Corporate, the account that is closed out to Capital or Equity is the difference between the Revenue and the Expenses for the accounting period.  This is more specifically referred to as Net Income.  This is the bottom-line profit, which is available for distribution to the owners of the entity in the form of capital withdrawals for Sole Proprietorships and dividends for Corporate entities.

The budgeted inventory at the end of a month is 40 percent of units to be sold the following month. Purchase price per unit is $6. Prepare a purchases budget in units and dollars for each month, January through May.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

To calculate the purchase for each  month, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Purchases January:

Production= 130,000

Desired ending inventory= (170,000*0.4)= 68,000

Beginning inventory= (40,000)

Total purchase in units= 158,000

Total purchase cost= 158,000*6= $948,000

Purchases February:

Production= 170,000

Desired ending inventory= (190,000*0.4)= 76,000

Beginning inventory= (68,000)

Total purchase in units= 178,000

Total purchase cost= 178,000*6= $1,068,000

Purchases March:

Production= 190,000

Desired ending inventory= (200,000*0.4)= 80,000

Beginning inventory= (76,000)

Total purchase in units= 194,000

Total purchase cost= 194,000*6= $1,164,000

Purchases April:

Production= 200,000

Desired ending inventory= (180,000*0.4)= 72,000

Beginning inventory= (80,000)

Total purchase in units= 192,000

Total purchase cost= 192,000*6= $1,152,000

Purchases May:

Production= 180,000

Desired ending inventory= (250,000*0.4)= 100,000

Beginning inventory= (72,000)

Total purchase in units= 208,000

Total purchase cost= 208,000*6= $1,248,000

WatchNU is a company that designs and manufacturers drones for military use. The supply manager is getting ready to renegotiate the contract with the security service provider that it uses for its offices and manufacturing plant. Three suppliers responded to the RFP for security services for the next three years. The current security services provider, SecureIT quoted $945,000 per year. Two suppliers that have not been used by WatchNU in the past quoted $1,048,000 and $1,056,000 respectively. The supply manager is also analyzing the costs associated with insourcing security services rather than using a supplier as a way to reduce costs and provide greater control over security. The salary and benefits for a full-time security services manager is estimated to be $99,000. Other fixed costs are estimated to be $29,000/year. Three security guards are needed 24 hours/day, 365 days per year. The salary and benefits for the security guards is $34/hour.

Required:
What are the costs to insource the security services?

Answers

Answer:

Variable Cost $893,520

Fixed Cost $128,000

Total Cost $1,021,520

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the costs to insource the security services

VARIABLE COST

Using this formula

Variable cost =Total Quantity of Output x Variable Cost Per Unit

Let plug in the formula

Variable cost =3* ($34/hour x 24 hours/day x 365 days per year)

Variable cost = $893,520

FIXED COST

Using this formula

Fixed cost=Salary and Benefits for a full time security service manager+Other Fixed Costs

Let plug in the formula

Fixed cost=($99,000) + ($29,000)

Fixed cost= $128,000

TOTAL COST

Using this formula

Total Cost = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost

Let plug in the formula

Total Cost=($893,520) + ($128,000)

Total Cost= $1,021,520

Therefore the costs to insource the security services will be:

Variable Cost $893,520

Fixed Cost $128,000

Total Cost $1,021,520

With the CEO and driver of the company—Howard Schultz—stepping down as the company’s unquestioned leader, do you expect Starbucks to change its foreign market entry strategy in any way?

Answers

Answer:

The short answer to that is No, Starbucks will not change its foreign market entry strategy.

Explanation:

The reasons are as follows:

 did Howard Schultz lose his shares when he stepped down? This is highly unlikely and according to the rules of corporate governance may depend on his contract. So stepping down as the chairman does not necessarily translate to losing control. Corporations such as Starbucks: don't just up and change direction. Strategies are usually vetted by the board of directors. Whoever the majority shareholder is (corporate person or individual) will always have a say regarding the expansion of the business. Howard Schultz has stepped down in 2018. At that time, Starbucks had a total of 28,000 stores in 77 countries. Currently, there are 15,000 in 50 countries. This reduction didn't happen because Howard stepped down but because of the recent pandemic which hit the globe in 2020.

a. Treasury bills are offering a 7% yield.
b. The portfolio beta is greater than 1.0.
c. The portfolio beta equals 1.67.
d. The investor's portfolio contains many defensive stocks.

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

Systemic risk is measured by beta. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors

Market beta is represented by 1. If a portfolio has a beta that is higher than 1, it means that it is more risky than the market portfolio and investors would demand a higher return than the market portfolio

As a result of the footnote, Adelphia lost more than 50 percent of its market value in little more than a week.

Required:
Explain why you think the market value of Adelphia fell so dramatically with the footnote disclosure that the company had guaranteed loans to an entity owned by the company's CEO and his family

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The transaction of $2.7 billion as a loan lender to a private corporation controlled by the CEO John Rigas plus his family suggests a significant likelihood of asset theft and fraudulent activity. The misappropriation of assets is a sign of a company's financial instability. It implies that people in charge of administration are not using the firm's profits to maximize shareholders' wealth, but rather are advancing the interests of only one shareholder.

As soon as the news reaches the investors, a reasonable investor would sell his stock holdings and divest from the firm. As a result of the bulk of investors' divestment, stock prices have dropped by more than 50% in a week in Adelphia Communications.

Ken's home has a replacement value of $200,000. Ken insured the home for $150,000 under an unendorsed Homeowners 3 policy. The roof of Ken's home was damaged by a windstorm. The replacement cost of the damaged roof is $16,000. The actual cash value of the loss is $12,000. How much will Ken receive from his insurer to settle this claim

Answers

Answer: $15,000

Explanation:

Using a Homeowners 3 policy, Ken will get the higher amount out of two amounts which are:

The actual cash value of the damaged area. An amount calculated as follows:

= (Amount of Insurance cover on home / 80% of Replacement Cost) * Cost of Repair to damaged area.

The actual cash value is $12,000

The second amount is:

= (Amount of Insurance cover on home / 80% of Replacement Cost) * Cost of Repair to damaged area.

= 150,000 / (80% * 200,000) * 16,000

= 0.9375 * 16,000

= $15,000

Ken will receive the higher amount of $15,000.

Property tax= $26,000

Direct labor= $60,500

Number of hours= 5,500

Property tax is a fixed cost. We need to calculate the hourly rate for direct labor:

Hourly rate= 60,500 / 5,500

Hourly rate= $11

Now, the flexible budget:

Fixed cost= 26,00

Variable cost= 11*6,800= 74,800

Total cost= $100,800

What would be the net annual cost of the following checking accounts?

a. Monthly fee, $2.75; processing fee, 50 cents per check; checks written, an average of 30 a month. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Input the amount as a positive value.)

For this one, I got $213.


b. Interest earnings of 4 percent with a $450 minimum balance; average monthly balance, $600; monthly service charge of $20 for falling below the minimum balance, which occurs five times a year (no interest earned in these months). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Input the amount as a positive value.)

Not sure how to do this one exactly.

Answers

Answer: $86

Explanation:

Net Annual cost is:

= Total service charge - Interest earned

Total service cost = Service charge * Number of months

= 20 * 5

= $100

Interest earned = Average monthly balance * interest rate * Remaining months

= 600 * 4% * (12 - 5 months) / 12 months

= 600 * 4% * 7/12

= $14

Net Annual cost:

= 100 - 14

= $86

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

From the given information;

The required probability needed to carry out is P(32000<X<42000);

Given that:

mean [tex]\mu[/tex] = 40000

standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 5000

Using the standard normal distribution;

[tex]P(32000 <X<42000) = ( \dfrac{x - \mu}{\sigma} <Z< \dfrac{x - \mu}{\sigma})[/tex]

[tex]P(32000 <X<42000) = ( \dfrac{32000 - 40000}{5000} <Z< \dfrac{42000 - 40000}{5000})[/tex]

[tex]P(32000 <X<42000) = ( -1.6<Z<0.4)[/tex]

Here, the region of the area lies between -1.60 and 0.40

P(320000 < X < 40000) = P(Z<0.40) - P(Z< -0.40)

From Z tables;

P(320000 < X < 40000) =  0.6554 -0.0548

P(320000 < X < 40000) = 0.6006

P(320000 < X < 40000) = 60.06%

Question 9 Suppose money invested in a hedge fund earns 1% per trading day. There are 250 trading days per year. What will be your annual return on $100 invested in the fund if the manager allows you to reinvest in the fund the 1% you earn each day

Answers

Answer:

1103.22%

Explanation:

The value of the investment at the end of the year assuming  250  trading days per year can be computed the future value formula provided below:

FV=PV*(1+daily return)^n

PV=initial investment=$100

daily return=reinvestment rate=1%

n=number of trading days in a year=250

FV=$100*(1+1%)^250

FV=$ 1,203.22

Annual return=( 1,203.22/$100)-1

Annual return=1103.22%
