Answer: The answer is provided below
Explanation:
a) Variances for Direct materials =
( actual rate - standard rate) × actual quantity
= ($2.25 - $2.10) × 10,600
= 1590
Variance for Direct material quantity
= (10,600 - 10,000) × 2.1
= 1260
Variance for labor rate
= (8.4 - 8) × 14,400
= 0.4 × 14400
= 5760
b. Total overhead variace = Actual overhead - ovehead applied
= $189,500 - $193,500
= 4000(F)
c. Sale revenue $400,000

The following data apply to Hill's Hiking Equipment: Value of operations $20,000, Short-term investments $1,000, Debt $6,000, Number of shares 300; The company plans on distributing $50 million by repurchasing stock. What will the intrinsic per share stock price be immediately after the repurchase?
Answer:
$50
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
The company plans on giving out $50 million by repurchasing stock hence, number of stock to be purchased = 50/50 = 1 million
The Number of share bought back = 300-1 = 299
Thus
$20,000 + $1,000 - $6000 = $15,000
$15,000 / 300 shares = $50
Before Repurchase After the repurchase
Value of operations 20000 20000
Short-term investments 1000 950
Less : Debt 6000 6000
Intrinsic value of equity 15000 14950
Number of shares 300 299
Intrinsic value per share 50 50
Therefore the intrinsic per share stock price be immediately after the repurchase is $50
Future Value (LG5-1) Compute the future value in year 8 of a $4,400 deposit in year 1, and another $3,900 deposit at the end of year 3 using an 10 percent interest rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)
Future value =_______
Answer:
Total future value = $15,712.78
Explanation:
Future value is computed using the formula below:
FV = PV × (1+r)^n
FV- Future value, n -number of years, interest rate per annum
First deposit
FV = 4,400× (1.1)^8 = 9,431.79
Second deposit
Note the deposit was made in year 3, by the end of year year 8, then the number of years would be = (8-3) = 5 years
FV = 3,900 × (1.1)^5 = 6,280.98
Total future value = 9,431.79+ 6,280.98= $15,712.779
Total future value = $15,712.78
A buyer wants to purchase a home for $60,000. The lender appraises the home for $58,000 and offers to finance it with an 80% loan-to-value loan, charging a loan origination fee of 1.5 points. How much will the buyer's loan origination fee be?
Answer:
Loan origination fee = $696
Explanation:
Given:
Home value = $58,000
Loan-to-value loan = 80%
Loan origination fee = 1.5 points = 1.5%
Find:
Loan origination fee = ?
Computation:
Total loan amount = Home value × Loan-to-value loan
Total loan amount = $58,000 × 80%
Total loan amount = $46,400
Loan origination fee = Total loan amount × 1.5%
Loan origination fee = $46,400 × 1.5%
Loan origination fee = $696
homeworklib You want to evaluate three mutual funds using the information ratio measure for performance evaluation. The risk-free return during the sample period is 6%, and the average return on the market portfolio is 19%. The average returns, residual standard deviations, and betas for the three funds are given below. Average Return Residual Standard Deviation Beta Fund A 20 % 4.00 % 0.8 Fund B 21 % 1.25 % 1.0 Fund C 23 % 1.20 % 1.2 The fund with the highest information ratio measure is Multiple Choice Funds A and C (tied for highest). Funds A and B (tied for highest). Fund A. Fund C. Fund B.
Answer:
The fund with the highest ratio is Fund B.
Explanation:
Risk-free return = 6%
The average return on the market portfolio = 19%
The ratio equation formula is as follows:
FUND A: Return on fund - Risk free rate - Beta (Return on market portfolio - Risk free rate)/Standard deviation of fund
FUND A : 20 - 6 - 0.8(19 - 6 ) / 4 = 0.9
FUND B : 21 - 6 - 1(13)/1.25 = 1.6
FUND C : 23 -6 - 1.2 (13 ) /1.2 = 1.167
Therefore, the fund with the highest ratio is Fund B.

Marissa gives Larry a check made payable to cash in payment for a
computer that she is buying from him. Larry then gives the check to his
nephew, Gary Graduate, without indorsing it, as a graduation gift. Marissa
then stops payment on the check because she claims that Larry breached the
contract. When the check bounces, Gary makes a claim against Marissa for
the amount of the check. Marissa responds that Gary cannot collect on the
check since he is not a holder because Larry never indorsed the check to
him. Which statement is true?
1.Gary is at least a holder
2.Gary is not a holder or holder in due course because the check was never indorsed
3.Gary is not a holder or holder in due course because of the shelter principal
4.Gary is not a holder or holder in due clause because Larry breached the contract
Answer:
The correct answer is the option 2: Gary is not a holder or holder in due course becuase the check was never indorsed.
Explanation:
To begin with, the field of law and more in particular the commercial law and all its scenarios, any check that has been passing through hands must be indorsed in order to be able to be payable to the person who has it the last, in any other case if the check is not indorsed then that means by law that the check has never changed its owner and therefore that it can not be payable for anybody else. That is why, Gary is not a holder because his uncle did not indorsed him the check correctly.
In a bilateral monopoly with one buyer and one seller, the monopoly power of the seller and the monopsony power of the buyer tend to: counter-act one another. reinforce one another. favor the buyer. favor the seller.
Answer:
counter-act one another.
Explanation:
As a bilateral monopoly has one buyer and one seller, the buyer wants to pay the lower price possible and the seller wants to charge a high price. So, they have opposite goals and they have to negotiate considering the power each one has and find an agreement in which both win. According to this, the answer is that in a bilateral monopoly with one buyer and one seller, the monopoly power of the seller and the monopsony power of the buyer tend to counter-act one another as their positions are in conflict and they have to find a middle point to get to an agreement.
The other options are not right because their goals are in conflict so they don't support the idea of the other party and both parties have a relative bargaining power and because of that, the monopoly power of the parties does not favor the buyer or the seller.
Lusk Corporation produces and sells 14,900 units of Product X each month. The selling price of Product X is $31 per unit, and variable expenses are $25 per unit. A study has been made concerning whether Product X should be discontinued. The study shows that $73,000 of the $113,000 in monthly fixed expenses charged to Product X would not be avoidable even if the product was discontinued. If Product X is discontinued, the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company of eliminating this product should be: g
Answer:
Effect on income= $34,500 decrease
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales= 14,900 units
Selling price= $31 per unit
Variable expenses= $25 per unit.
The study shows that $73,000 of the $113,000 in monthly fixed expenses charged to Product X would not be avoidable even if the product was discontinued.
First, we need to calculate the current income of Product X.
Net income= 14,900*(31 - 25) - 113,000= -$38,500
Now, the effect of discontinuing the product.
Effect on income= unavoidable fixed costs - current income
Effect on income= - 73,000 + 38,500
Effect on income= $34,500 decrease
In business, it is customary to praise individualistic competition and denigrate collective bargaining in all forms. However, in the Hanseatic League, we clearly see an example of merchants working together for mutual success over a period of three hundred years! What lessons are we to learn from this? Are there prospects for more merchant leagues in an increasingly globalized economy? Outline your thoughts on these questions in ten sentences minimum, and post them in the discussion. Then select two fellow students posts for peer review and critique their comments without the use of flattery.
Answer:
What lessons are we to learn from this?
The Hanseatic league, just like the Northern Italian City-States of the Late Middle Ages, are early examples of capitalism: they represent proto-capitalism.
In the cities that belonged to the Hanseatic League, the work of merchants was promoted, and capital accumulation and the profit motive began to develop. However, this does not meant that cooperation was out of place. The merchants cooperated voluntarily because they could get more working in association.
Are there prospects for more merchant leagues in an increasingly globalized economy?
There will always be the prospect for more merchant leagues, because people naturally cooperate if it is in the benefit of all the parties.
In fact, trade unions and economic unions could be seen as a form of merchant league, that are created by states instead of individual merchants.
A company issues a callable (at par) ten-year, 6% coupon bond with annual coupon payments. The bond can be called at par in one year after release or any time after that on a coupon payment date. On release, it has a price of $104 per $100 of face value. What is the yield to maturity of this bond when it is released? A) 0.60% B) 1.92% C) 4.00% D) 5.47%
Answer:
B) 1.92%
Explanation:
For computing the yield to maturity we need to apply the RATE formula i.e to be shown in the attachment
Given that,
Present value = $104
Future value or Face value = $100
PMT = $100 × 6% = $6
NPER = 1
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
After applying the above formula, the yield to maturity is 1.92%
3) Calculate two individuals total amount of retirement assets after 30 years of investing using the following two examples to display and articulate the effect of compounded fees on two different individuals' retirement accounts with the exact same mutual funds. The two mutual funds have the same before expense rate of return, but one mutual fund charges a higher expense ratio than the other. Describe what effect fees have on the two different individuals' retirement assets: (a) Yearly Savings: $15,000, Inflation Rate: 2%, Rate of Return:(8.15%-.15%=8%), Expense Ratio of Mutual Fund: .15%, Periods: 30 years (b) Yearly Savings: $15,000, Inflation Rate: 2%, Rate of Return:(8.15%-.65%=7.50%) (It is lower than example (a) due to the increased expense ratio), Expense Ratio of Mutual Fund: .65%, Periods: 30 years
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
Based on the explanations and the figures provided on the question, the solution goes thus:
a. Assuming that the inflation rate is also be the rate of growth in savings amount i.e the income of an individual will grow minimum by inflation amount.
r = 8% = 8/100 = 0.08
g = 2% = 2/100 =0.02
Future value = 15000[(.08)^30 - (1.02)^30)]/0.06
Fv= 2062250
b) similarly for b as expense ratio of mutual fund is said to be higher, we will get:
r=7.5% = 7.5/100 = 0.075
g= 2% = 2/100 = 0.02
fv= 15000[(1.075)^30 - (1.02)^30)]/0.055 Future value = 1892454
we can therefore deduce that due to the increase in expense ratio assets in the 2nd scenario, the value are less by:
= 2062250 - 1892454
= 169,796.

Rudo asked Harun to detail his brand-new sports car by painting flames on the side of the vehicle. After the parties signed a contract and after Harun had already started to paint, Rudo decided that he also wanted Harun to install a new stereo system in the car at the same cost and modified the contract likewise. Harun painted the flames on the side of the vehicle as originally agreed but did not install a new stereo. Rudo refuses to pay the originally agreed upon price. If Harun sues Rudo for the contract price, he will win because:_______
a. Rudo's act was unenforceable for lack of consideration
b. Rudo's promise was enforceable.
c. The old contract automaticallt got cancelled with the addition of a new condition.
d. Harun's act was not a preexisting duty and hence of no legal value.
Answer:
a. Rudo's act was unenforceable for lack of consideration
Explanation:
In this scenario where Rudo changed the contract after Harun had commenced painting, his new contract is not enforceable because it lacks consideration.
Consideration is defined as the action in a contract where the parties involved agree to carry out their side of the contract.
When the parties do not agree to the terms of the contract then the contract is not legally binding on the parties.
Rudo made the first contract which Harun agreed to. However Harun did not agree to the terms of the modified contract, so this makes it unenforceable
Answer: Rudo's act was unenforceable for lack of consideration
Explanation:
Any contract that must be enforceable by law needs an appropriate consideration. Based on the above scenario on the question, when there was a modification that was made in the contract, we were informed that Rudo told Harun to detail his brand-new car by painting flames on side of the vehicle and after the contract was signed by the parties, he wanted to modify the contract by telling Harun to install new stereo system in the car.
Rudo did not promise for modifications from the beginning of the contract, therefore there should not be any change in the existing contract. If Hrun Sue's Rado based on the scenario, he will win due to the fact that Rudo's act was unenforceable for a lack of consideration.
Ayayai Corp. has 320,000 shares of $10 par value common stock outstanding. It declares a 14% stock dividend on December 1 when the market price per share is $17. The dividend shares are issued on December 31. Prepare the entries for the declaration and distribution of the stock dividend.
Answer:
320,000 stocks with $10 par value
14% stock dividend (small stock dividend ≤ 20%)
so we will use the market price of the stocks = $17 x 320,000 x 14% = $761,600 total distribution
320,00 x 14% = 44,800 stocks x $10 par value = $448,000
the additional paid in capital = $761,600 - $448,000 = $313,600
December 1, declaration of stock dividend
Dr Retained earnings 761,600

Thomas Kratzer is the purchasing manager for the headquarters of a large insurance company chain with a central inventory operation. Thomas's fastest-moving inventory item has a demand of 6 comma 000 units per year. The cost of each unit is $97, and the inventory carrying cost is $8 per unit per year. The average ordering cost is $29 per order. It takes about 5 days for an order to arrive, and the demand for 1 week is 120 units. (This is a corporate operation, and there are 250 working days per year).
A) What is the EOQ?B) What is the average inventory if the EOQ is used?C) What is the optimal number of orders per year?
Answer:
A) EOQ = 208.56 units
B) Average inventory = 104.28 units
C) Optimum number of order = 28.76 times
Explanation:
Economic order quantity is the order quantity that minimizes the balance of ordering and carrying cost.
Economic order quantity = √2× 29× 6,000/8=208.56 units
Average inventory = Minimum stock level + Order quantity/2
minimum stock level is not given , hence
Average inventory = 208.56/2 = 104.28 units
Optimum number of order
Optimum number of order = Demand / order quantity
= 6000/208.56= 28.76 times.
EOQ = 208.56 units
B) Average inventory = 104.28 units
C) Optimum number of order = 28.76 times
Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $135 and $95, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $6 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 105,000 units of each product. Its average cost per unit for each product at this level of activity are given below: Alpha Beta Direct materials $ 30 $ 18 Direct labor 23 16 Variable manufacturing overhead 10 8 Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead 19 21 Variable selling expenses 15 11 Common fixed expenses 18 13 Total cost per unit $ 115 $ 87 The company considers its traceable fixed manufacturing overhead to be avoidable, whereas its common fixed expenses are unavoidable and have been allocated to products based on sales dollars. 6. Assume that Cane normally produces and sells 93,000 Betas per year. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of discontinuing the Beta product line
Answer:
financial disadvantage = ($1,953,000)
Explanation:
Alpha selling price $135 per unit
Beta selling price $95 per unit
raw materials = $6 per pound
production capacity 105,000 of each product
Alpha Beta
Direct materials $30 $18
Direct labor $23 $16
Variable manufacturing overhead $10 $8
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead $19 $21
Variable selling expenses $15 $11
Common fixed expenses $18 $13
Total cost per unit $115 $87
margin per unit $20 $8
93,000 Betas produced per year:
total revenue $8,835,000
COGS ($5,859,000)
Gross profit $2,976,000
Variable selling expense ($1,023,000)
Fixed common expenses ($1,209,000)
net profit $744,000
if the Beta product line is discontinued:
lost net profits ($744,000)
fixed common expenses ($1,209,000)
financial disadvantage ($1,953,000)
If the company decides to shut down the production of Betas, then it will lose $1,953,000. This includes lost profits generated by the product and unavoidable fixed costs which must be allocated to Alphas.
Judith Thompson, the manager of the student center cafeteria, has added pizza to the menu. The pizza is ordered frozen from a local pizza establishment and baked at the cafeteria. Judith anticipates a weekly demand of 10 pizzas. The cafeteria is open 45 weeks a year, 5 days a week. The ordering cost is $15 and the holding cost is $0.40 per pizza per year. The pizza vendor has a 4-day lead-time and Judith wants to maintain 1 pizza for safety stock. What is the optimal reorder point
Answer:
9 pizzas
Explanation:
Given that:
A pizza is ordered frozen from a local pizza establishment and baked at the cafeteria.
Judith anticipates a weekly demand of 10 pizzas.
Opening weeks in a year = 45 weeks
Opening days in a week = 5 days
Daily demand = 10/5 = 2
Ordering cost = $15
Holding cost = $0.40 /pizza/year
Lead time = 4 days
Safety stock = 1 pizza
The objective is to determine the optimal reorder point.
The optimal reorder point = (daily demand × lead time) + safety stock
The optimal reorder point =( 2 × 4 ) + 1
The optimal reorder point = 8 + 1
The optimal reorder point = 9 pizzas
Which of the following assertions is true?
A) Agency costs do not involve costs that are incurred from managers pursuing their own interests at the expense of shareholder value and do not involve costs that are incurred by shareholders to make sure that managers pursue shareholder value.
B) Agency costs do not involve costs that are incurred from managers pursuing their own interests at the expense of shareholder value, but do involve costs that are incurred by shareholders to make sure that managers pursue shareholder value.
C) Agency costs involve costs that are incurred from managers pursuing their own interests at the expense of shareholder value, but not costs that are incurred by shareholders to make sure that managers pursue shareholder value.
D) Agency costs involve costs that are incurred from managers pursuing their own interests at the expense of shareholder value and costs that are incurred by shareholders to make sure that managers pursue shareholder value.
Answer:
D) Agency costs involve costs that are incurred from managers pursuing their own interests at the expense of shareholder value and costs that are incurred by shareholders to make sure that managers pursue shareholder value.
Explanation:
Due to the fact that most public companies are not managed by owners but by managers, agency cost arises.
Agency cost arises when the manager pursues her own interest to the detriment of the owners.
In order to mitigate against agency costs , owners put certain mechanisms in place to limit these costs. Some of these mechanisms include increased monitoring and employment contracts

Which of these statements about cycle inventory is BEST? A. Cycle inventory exists to avoid customer service problems. B. Cycle inventory is used to compensate for cycles in supply or demand. C. A change in lead time does not necessarily entail a change in cycle inventory. D. Longer lead times entail more cycle inventory is needed.
Answer:
A. Cycle inventory exists to avoid customer service problems.
Explanation:
Cycle inventory is the part of inventory kept by a supplier, that shows the amount of inventory available to satisfy demand. Cycle inventory allows the supplier to keep track of his available inventory so as to remove the problem of not meeting customers demand, which can led to loss of customers. And also to reduce the problem of over-storage that can lead to additional holding charge.

Calculate the five profitability ratios listed above for Adrian Express
(Round your answers to 1 decimal place.) Profitability Ratios Gross profit ratio Return on assets Profit margin Asset turnover Return on equity
Answer:
The Gross profit ratio is 36.6%
The Return on assets is 20%
The Profit margin is 8.8%
The Asset turnover would be 2.3 times
The Return on equity is 40.4%
Explanation:
The calculation of the five profitability ratios listed would be a follows:
Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold
= $19,310,000 - $12,250,000
= $7,060,000
Gross profit ratio = Gross profit / Sales * 100
= $7,060,000 / $19,310,000 * 100
= 36.6%
The Gross profit ratio is 36.6%
Return on assets = Net income / Average total assets * 100
= $1,700,000 / [($9,200,000+$7,800,000)/2] * 100
= 20%
The Return on assets would be 20%
Profit margin = Net profit / Sales * 100
= $1,700,000 / $19,310,000 * 100
= 8.8%
The Profit margin would be 8.8%
Asset turnover = Sales / Average total assets
= $19,310,000 / [($9,200,000+$7,800,000)/2]
= 2.3 times
The Asset turnover would be 2.3 times
Return on equity = Net income / Average total equity
= $1,700,000 / [($1,900,000+$2,980,000+$1,900,000+$1,640,000)/2]
= 40.4%
The Return on equity would be 40.4%

Brightstone Tire and Rubber Company has capacity to produce 221,000 tires. Brightstone presently produces and sells 169,000 tires for the North American market at a price of $114 per tire. Brightstone is evaluating a special order from a European automobile company, Euro Motors. Euro is offering to buy 26,000 tires for $93.6 per tire. Brightstone's accounting system indicates that the total cost per tire is as follows:
Direct materials $54
Direct labor 24
Factory overhead (62% variable) 24
Selling and administrative expenses (44% variable) 25
Total $127.00
Brightstone pays a selling commission equal to 4% of the selling price on North American orders, which is included in the variable portion of the selling and administrative expenses. However, this special order would not have a sales commission. If the order was accepted, the tires would be shipped overseas for an additional shipping cost of $7.65 per tire. In addition, Euro has made the order conditional on receiving European safety certification. Brightstone estimates that this certification would cost $165,424.
Required:
A. Prepare a differential analysis dated January 21 on whether to reject (Alternative 1) or accept (Alternative 2) the special order from Euro Motors.

It is an age old problem that rears its head up in almost every relationship where a party is to act in the best interest of another. They might simply ask themselves, why not act in our own best interests.
For example, Managers might award contracts to companies that promise to give them some form of compensation for the contract instead of companies that would have done the job in question at cheaper rates and with more efficiency and thus brought more Profitability to the firm.

Agency conflict occur when the shareholders of a firm do not manage the company. Instead, managers are hired to manage the firm. Sometimes, the interest of shareholders and managers are not aligned.
For example, if the remuneration managers receive is tied to the net income of the firm. The manager can undertake projects that would boost net income but not be in the best interest of shareholders.
