Discuss the different cost–benefit analyses that companies must take into account when they formulate an IT strategic plan.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The various cost-benefit analyses that companies must take into account when they formulate an IT strategic plan are:

Analysts use the net present value (NPV) Return on Investment (ROI) Breakeven analysis  

Explanation:

To formulate an IT strategic plan means to create an IT plan that helps with the organization's long-term and short-term objectives. Many times there are several alternatives to select from. The alternative with the greatest amount of benefit and at the least cost to the organization is the best.

A comparison between the cost and the benefits of each alternative is called cost-benefit analyses. Note that "analyses" is plural.

Some of the methods that are utilized to evaluate each alternative plant for costs against benefits are:

Net Present Value (NPV) approach adopts the investment point of view in the analysis of the cost and the benefits accruable from an IT Strategic Plan.

NPV examines the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time with a view to compare the difference between both factors. When applied to IT strategies, it is assumed that the benefits accruable from the IT project can be compared in monetary terms. A project with a positive NPV is a viable project. Those with zero NPV will return exactly the amount invested. A negative NPV is a loss. The project with the highest NPV is the most valuable in terms of cost versus benefits.

Return on Investment (ROI)

This approach is similar to the NPV. The project with the highest ROI and the least cost will pass for the best IT strategy.

Return on Investment is simply the result of dividing the Net Profits by the Initial cost of the investment. It is measured in percentages. The IT plan with the highest percentage is the best.

Breakeven Analysis

This also assumes that the expected results from the IT plan are measurable in monetary terms. A company is said to have broken even when they have recovered the exact amount invested into a business.

The shorter the breakeven period, the better the business/IT strategy.

During 2021, WMC Corporation discovered that its ending inventories reported in its financial statements were misstated by the following material amounts: 2019 understated by $ 124,000 2020 overstated by 154,000 WMC uses a periodic inventory system and the FIFO cost method. Required: 1. Determine the effect of these errors on retained earnings at January 1, 2021, before any adjustments. (Ignore income taxes.) 2. Prepare a journal entry to correct the errors.

Answers

Answer:

WMC Corporation

Misstatement of Ending Inventories:

1. Effect of these errors on Retained Earnings at January 1, 2021:

a) The understated amount by $124,000 in 2019 has self-corrected in 2020 with the Beginning Inventory also understated.  So, it has no effect on the Retained Earnings at January 1, 2021.

b) The overstated ending inventories by $154,000 will overstate the Retained Earnings at January 1, 2021 by the same amount.  Since it has not self-corrected like (a), the correction will be to reduce the Retained Earnings and reduce the Beginning Inventories by $154,000.

2. Journal Entry:

Debit Retained Earnings $154,000

Credit Beginning Inventories $154,000

To reverse the overstated inventories.

Explanation:

a) Data:

2019 understated by $ 124,000

2020 overstated by 154,000

Inventory system = periodic

Inventory method = FIFO

The Lexington Partnership has a depreciable business asset (personal property) that it originally purchased for $81,800. The asset now has an adjusted basis of $49,080 and a market value of $98,160. The partnership has no other potential hot assets. Ambroz sells his 25% interest in the partnership. a. How much is Lexington's depreciation recapture potential

Answers

Answer:

Question b: How much ordinary income does Ambroz recognize when he sells this partnership interest?

a. Since the market value is more than its original cost, therefore, the completed depreciation can be potentially recaptured

Lexington's depreciation recapture potential = $81,800 - $49,080

Lexington's depreciation recapture potential = $32,720

b. Ambroz recognizes Ordinary income of: $32,720*25% = $8180

To fund your dream vacation, you plan to save $1,475 per year for the next 15 years starting one year from now. If you can earn an interest rate of 6.25%, how much will you have saved for your vacation?

Answers

Answer:

FV= $34,993.05

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual deposit= $1,475

Number of periods= 15 years

Interest rate= 6.25%

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {1,475*[(1.0625^15) - 1]} / 0.0625

FV= $34,993.05

The demand for tickets to an Ethiopian Camparada film is given by D(p)= 200,000-10,000p, where p is the price of tickets. If the price of tickets is 12 birr, calculate price elasticity of demand for tickets and draw the demand curve



Answers

Answer:

a. The price elasticity of demand for tickets -1.50.

b. See the attached pdf file for the demand curve.

Explanation:

a. Calculate price elasticity of demand for tickets

Given;

p = 12

D(p) = D = 200,000 - 10,000p .................................................................... (1)

Substituting p = 12 into equation (1) to find the value of D, we have:

D = 200,000 – (10,000 * 12) = 200,000 - 120,000 = 80,000

Differentiating equation (1) with respect to p, we have:

dD/dp = -10,000

To calculate elasticity of demand, we use the formula for calculating the elasticity of demand as follows:

E = Elasticity of demand = (p / D) * (dD/dp) ................... (2)

Substituting the relevant values into equation (2), we have:

E = (12 / 80,000) * (-10,000) = 0.00015 * (-10,000) = -1.50

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand for tickets -1.50.

Note: Since the absolute value of E i.e. |-1.50| is greater one, it therefore implies that the demand for tickets is elastic.

b. Draw the demand curve.

Note: See the attached pdf file for the demand curve

To draw the demand curve, we need to obtain the new price and the new quantity demanded as follows:

We start by assuming that the price of tickets decreases from 12 birr to 11 birr. Therefore, the percentage change in price is obtained as follows:

Percentage change in price = ((New price – Old price) / Old price) * 100 = ((11 - 12) / 12) * 100 = -8.33%

To calculate the percentage change in demand for tickets, we use the following formula for calculating the elasticity of demand:

E = Percentage change in demand / Percentage change in price ............. (3)

Since from part a above, E = -1.50

And, as calculated here, Percentage change in price = -8.33%, or 0.0833

Substituting the values into equation (3) and solve for Percentage change in demand, we have:

-1.50 = Percentage change in quantity demanded / -0.0833

Percentage change in quantity demanded = (-0.0833) * (-1.50) = 0.12495, or 12.495%

Approximating to 2 decimal places, we have:

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 12.50%

Since the answer is positive, this implies that the demand for tickets D increases by 12.50% when price for tickets decreases by 8.33%. This confirms that the demand for tickets is truly elastic as the percentage change in demand for ticket of 12.50% is greater than the percentage change in price of -8.33%.

The new D can therefore be calculated as follows:

New D = D + (D * Percentage change in demand demanded) = 80,000 + (80,000 * 12.50%) = 90,000

From the calculations above, we have:

Initial price = 12 birr

New price = 11 birr

Initial quantity = D = 80,000

New quantity = New D = 90,000

The values above are then used to draw the demand curve in the attached pdf file.

Since there is a negative relationship between price and quantity demanded in economics, the curve in the attached excel file shows the effect of a decrease in the price of tickets from 12 birr to 11birr (as shown by the arrow) on the quantity demanded for tickets that increases from 80,000 to 90,000 (as shown by the arrow).

Since the demand for tickets is elastic as obtained in part a above, it implies that the percentage change in the quantity demanded for ticket is greater than the percentage change in the price of tickets. This makes the demand curve to be flatter as shown in the attached pdf file

From the demand curve in the attached pdf file; the demand curve for tickets is flatter, and the gap between the initial quantity demanded 80,000 and the new quantity demanded 90,000 is wider than the gap between the initial price 12 birr and the new price 11 birr. This indicated that the percentage change in the quantity demanded of 12.50% which is an increase from 80,000 to 90,000 is higher than the percentage n the price for tickets of 8.33% which is a decrease from 12 birr to 11 birr.

Bambi Company manufactures fast-baking ovens in the United States at a production cost of $500 per unit and sells them to uncontrolled distributers in the United States and a wholly owned sales subsidiary in Canada. Bambi’s U.S. distributors sell the ovens to restaurants at a price of $1,000 and its Canadian subsidiary sells the ovens at a price of $1,100. Other distributors of similar ovens to restaurants in Canada can earn a gross profit (i.e., markup) of 25% of selling price. Bambi’s main U.S. competitor sells ovens at an average 50% markup on cost. Bambi’s Canadian subsidiary incurs operating costs (other than COGS), that average $250 per oven sold. The average operating profit margin earned by Canadian oven distributors is 5% (of sales). Sales $1,100 - cost 250 5%*1,100 = 55 profit Cost of goods sold = $795 1. Which of the following would be an acceptable transfer price under the resale price method?

Show your calculations a. $700 b. $750 c. $795 d. $825

Answers

Answer:

1. d. $825

2. b. $750

3. c. $795

Explanation:

1. Transfer price under the resale price method

Acceptable price under resale method = Selling price of Subsidiary - Profit%  

= $1,100 - 25%*$1,100

= $1,100 - $275

= $825

2. Transfer price under the cost-plus method

Cost plus method = Cost+Markup

= $500 + $500*50%

= $500 + $250

= $750

3. Transfer price under the comparable profits method

Comparable profits method = Selling price - Profit  - Other costs

= $1,100 - $1,100*5% - $250

= $1,100 - $55 - $250

= $795

The SP Corporation makes 48,000 motors to be used in the production of its sewing machines. The average cost per motor at this level of activity is: Direct materials $ 10.70 Direct labor $ 9.70 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 4.05 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 5.00 An outside supplier recently began producing a comparable motor that could be used in the sewing machine. The price offered to SP Corporation for this motor is $27.55. If SP Corporation decides not to make the motors, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided. Direct labor is a variable cost in this company. The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be: Multiple Choice $240,000 ($91,200) $343,200 148,800

Answers

Answer:

(A) 20.54

(B) 24.46

(C) 30.88

Explanation:

(A) The current stock price can be calculated as follows

Po= 1.55(1+6/100)/(14/100-6/100)

= 1.55(1+0.06)/(0.14-0.06)

= 1.55(1.06)/0.08

=1.643/0.08

= 20.54

(B) The stock price after 3 years can be calculated as follows

Po = 1.55(1+6/100)^4/(14/100-6/100)

= 1.55(1+0.06)^4/(0.14-0.06)

= 1.55(1.06)^4/0.08

= 1.55(1.2624)/0.08

= 1.9567/0.08

= 24.46

(C) The stock price after 7 years can be calculated as follows

Po= 1.55(1+6/100)^8/(14/100-6/100)

= 1.55(1+0.06)^8/(0.14-0.06)

= 1.55(1.06)^8/(0.08)

= 1.55(1.5938)/0.08

= 2.470/0.08

= 30.88

Ramon had AGI of $165,000 in 2020. He is considering making a charitable contribution this year to the American Heart Association, a qualified charitable organization. Determine the current allowable charitable contribution deduction in each of the following independent situations, and indicate the treatment for any amount that is not deductible currently. Identify any planning ideas to minimize Ramon's tax liability.

Answers

Answer:

the situations are missing, so I looked for similar questions:

a. A cash gift of $68,500.

In the current year, Ramon may deduct $68,500 since his charitable contribution is limited to $165,000.

b. A gift of OakCo stock worth $68,500 on the contribution date. Ramon had acquired the stock as an investment two years ago at a cost of $61,650.

The stock's value for determining the contribution is $68,500 (fair market value). The deduction for 2020 is $49,500 (30% of AGI). The remaining $19,000 for years.

c. A gift of a painting worth $68,500 that Ramon purchased three years ago for $61,650. The charity has indicated that it would sell the painting to generate cash to fund medical research.

The contribution is valued at $61,650 (the charity will sell the painting immediately). The amount deductible in the current year is $61,650.

Explanation:

The charitable contribution limit was increased to 100% of AGI for 2020 by the CARES Act (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act).

Early in the current year, Amazon Co. purchased the Rio Silver Mine at a cost of $30,000,000. The mine was estimated to contain 400,000 tons of ore and to have a residual value of $7,500,000 after mining operations are completed. During the year, 115,000 tons of ore were removed from the mine. At year-end, the book value of the mine is: Multiple Choice $22,500,000. $6,468,750. $23,531,250. $30,000,000.

Answers

Answer:

Book value= $23,531,250

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchased price= $30,000,000.

Residual value= $7,500,000

The mine was estimated to contain 400,000 tons of ore.

During the year, 115,000 tons of ore were removed from the mine.

First, we need to calculate the depletion for the year:

Annual depletion= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production]*production for the year

Annual depletion=[(30,000,000 - 7,500,000) / 400,000]*115,000

Annual depletion= 6,468,750

Now, the book value:

Book value= purchase price - annual depletion

Book value= 30,000,000 - 6,468,750

Book value= $23,531,250

Last year, Vandalay Industries had $300,000 in taxable income from its operations before the following: $40,000 in interest expense, $10,000 in interest income, $30,000 in dividends paid and $20,000 in dividend income. Assuming that 50% of dividend income is taxable and a 25% tax rate, what was the company's tax liability for the year?
A. $70,000
B. $79,190
C. $90,890
D. $62,500
E. $84,560

Answers

Answer:  A. $70,000

Explanation:

The tax liability will be computed on the total income that is taxable.

Total income = Taxable income - Interest expense + Interest income + taxable dividend income

= 300,000 - 40,000 + 10,000 + (50%* 20,000)

= 300,000 - 40,000 + 10,000 + 10,000

= $280,000

Tax liability = 25% * 280,000

= $70,000

The tax liability will be computed on the total taxable income.

Computed tax liability

Formula of Total income is = Taxable income - Interest expense + Interest income + taxable dividend income.

Then = 300,000 - 40,000 + 10,000 + (50%* 20,000)

After that = [tex]300,000 - 40,000 + 10,000 + 10,000[/tex]

Now = $[tex]280,000[/tex]

Then the Tax liability is = 25% * 280,000 = $70,000

Thus, the correct option is "A" $70,000

Ben and Carla Manchester plan to buy a condominium. They will obtain a $210,000, 20-year mortgage at 8.0 percent. Their annual property taxes are expected to be $2,676. Property insurance is $1,296 a year, and the condo association fee is $305 a month. Based on these items, determine the total monthly housing payment for the Manchesters. Use Exhibit 9-9. (Round time value factor to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

$2,393

Explanation:

Property taxes and insurance can be added to the Manchester's monthly mortgage payment.

The mortgage payment without the property taxes or insurance expense = $210,000 / 119.5546 PV annuity factor, 0.667%, 240 periods) = $1,756.52

monthly installment for property taxes = $2,676 / 12 = $223

monthly installment for insurance expense = $1,296 / 12 = $108

condo association fee = $305

total monthly payment = $2,392.52 ≈ $2,393

Tyler wants to brand the new location with the service-oriented environment, providing timely and quality service for its customers. He believes that the use of technology would not only create that environment, but also show customers a well-managed business using technology. What alternatives could fulfill this branding for a restaurant? Should they use handheld devices to process customer orders at the tables? Would this be an efficient method of entering orders? What types of devices could be used?

Answers

Explanation:

For a restaurant, there are many technology options available to improve the quality of services for customers. Some interesting strategies to achieve Tyler's goal could be the development of a restaurant-specific application, where the customer can make reservations quickly, access the menu, place an order in advance or leave feedback on the products and services offered by the restaurant.

Using portable devices to process customer orders at tables could also be an efficient alternative for order entry, such as tablets or some software spread around the restaurant that would allow the customer to choose whether they prefer automated or personal service.

To be successful strategies, Tyler should conduct a survey and analyze the tastes and preferences of his potential audience, as there are more traditional restaurants frequented by an audience that still prefers personalized service by an employee who gives him tips and recommendations on the dishes served and wines for example.

It is also ideal to train the team so that new technologies are used well and the quality of service is faster and quality.

The operations of Bridgeton Corporation are divided into the Adams Division and the Carter Division. Projections for the next year are as follows: Adams Division Carter Division Total Sales $ 560,000 $ 336,000 $ 896,000 Variable costs 196,000 154,000 350,000 Contribution margin $ 364,000 $ 182,000 $ 546,000 Direct fixed costs 168,000 140,000 308,000 Segment margin $ 196,000 $ 42,000 $ 238,000 Allocated common costs 84,000 63,000 147,000 Operating income (loss) $ 112,000 $ (21,000 ) $ 91,000 Operating income for Bridgeton Corporation as a whole if the Carter Division were dropped would be:

Answers

Answer:

$49,000

Explanation:

Operating Income = Sales - Variable Cost - Direct Fixed cost - Common Unavoidable Cost

Operating Income = $560,000 - $196,000 - $168,000 - ($84,000+$63,000)

Operating Income = $560,000 - $196,000 - $168,000 - $147,000

Operating Income = $49,000

​Therefore, the operating income for Bridgeton Corporation when Carter Division was dropped is $49,000.

Dan is 30 years old and has 12 years of education. If his estimated wage equation is: , what is the marginal effect of an additional year of education on his wage?

Answers

Question is incomplete

Answer and Explanation:

However let us assume Wage function with number of education years is given by:

F(w)= 14+5x

Where W is wage, 120 is normal wage rate per hour without education, 5 is coefficient of X and multiplier effect of education on wage, X is number of education years

If Dan has 12 years of education, we substitute in the given equation

Wage w=14+5*12=$74 per hour

Marginal effect of Additional year of education is effect of one more year of education on wage rate:

W=14+5*13= $79 per hour

Therefore marginal effect of additional education year = $79 per hour - $74 per hour

=$5 per hour
