Answer: 18.8%
Explanation:
Simple rate of return on investment = Incremental net operating income / investment
Incremental net income = Operating savings - Annual cost
= 145,000 - 420,000/6 years
= $75,000
Net investment = Cost of new machine - salvage value of old
= 420,000 - 21,000
= $399,000
Return on investment = 75,000/399,000
= 18.8%
On January 1, 2020, Novak Corp. had inventory of $56,500. At December 31, 2020, Novak had the following account balances.
Freight-in $4,800
Purchases 509500
Purchase discounts 8000
Purchase returns and allowances 2700
Sales revenue 807000
Sales discounts 6000
Sales returns and allowances 10,900
At December 31, 2020, Novak determines that its ending inventory is $66,500.
Required:
Compute Novak's 2020 gross profit.
Compute Novak's 2020 operating expenses if net income is $143,000 and thre are no nonoperating activities.
Answer:
Gross Profit ⇒ $296,500Operating expenses ⇒ $153,500Explanation:
Gross Profit;
= Net sales - Cost of Goods sold
Net sales = Sales revenue - sales discounts - sales returns and allowances
= 807,000 - 6,000 - 10,900
= $790,100
Cost of Goods sold
= Opening balance + Purchases + Freight-in - Purchase discounts - Purchase returns and allowances -closing balance
= 56,500 + 509,500 + 4,800 - 8,000 - 2,700 - 66,500
= $493,600
Gross Profit = 790,100 - 493,600
= $296,500
Operating Expense
Net Income = Gross profit - operating expenses
143,000 = 296,500 - operating expenses
Operating expenses = 296,500 - 143,000
= $153,500
Construction ManagementA construction company is building a new neighborhood, and they are currently working on the design. Each house will be built using one of three main materials (e.g., wood, brick, or concrete), but no side-by-side houses can be made of the same material. Because each house will be of varying size and complexity, the cost of the materials for each house varies. Given the cost of using each material for each house, what is the minimum cost needed to complete the neighborhood
Answer:
Answer is described below.
Explanation:
POINTS TO NOTE:
1. Each house will be built using one (only one) of three major building materials - wood, brick, concrete.
2. The linear (in a line or side-by-side) arrangement of the houses will be such that no house will have the same material as the one beside it.
3. The cost of materials for each house will vary.
ANSWER: The minimum cost needed to complete the neighborhood depends on two things;
- The cost of each type of house (cost of a wood house, cost of a brick house, cost of a concrete house)
- The number of each type of house to be built. Or, the number of houses to be built; bearing in mind that they must be arranged without consecutive repetition. Hence, how much will a wood house cost? How much will a brick house cost? How much will a concrete house cost?
Knowing these, the minimum cost needed to complete the neighborhood can be found. If it's going to be 6 houses in the neighborhood for instance and a wood house costs $40, a brick house costs $50 and a concrete house costs $60; the minimum cost to set up the neighborhood will be:
2(40) + 2(50) + 2(60) = 80+100+120 = $300
The number of each type of house will be 2 because same-material houses cannot stay side-by-side. If the rule wasn't there and all the houses were to be concrete, the total cost would be 6(60) = $360
g Coronado Industries sold some of its plant assets during 2021. The original cost of the plant assets was $902000 and the accumulated depreciation at date of sale was $842000. The proceeds from the sale of the plant assets were $89800. The information concerning the sale of the plant assets should be shown on Coronado's statement of cash flows (indirect method) for the year ended December 31, 2021, as a(n)
Answer and Explanation:
Since the following information is mentioned in the question
The purchase cost is $902,000
Accumulated depreciation is $842,000
The proceeds from the sale of plant asset is $89,800
So based on the above information, the sale of the plant asset would be shown in the investing activities of the cash flow statement in a positive amount
Hence it would be reported under the investing activities section
Management anticipates fixed costs of $74,200 and variable costs equal to 35% of sales. What will pretax income equal if sales are $342,000?
A. $119,700.
B. $148,100.
C. $267,800.
D. $45,500.
E. $183,750.
Answer:
Pretax profit= $148,100
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Management anticipates fixed costs of $74,200 and variable costs equal to 35% of sales.
Sales= $342,000
To calculate the pretax profit, we need to use the following formula:
Pretax profit= sales*contribution margin rate - fixed costs
Contribution margin rate= 1 - varaible cost rate
Contribution margin rate= 0.65
Pretax profit= 342,000*0.65 - 74,200
Pretax profit= $148,100
Gross Corporation adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory valuation on December 31, 2019. Its inventory at that date was $1,100,000 and the relevant price index was 100. Information regarding inventory for subsequent years is as follows: Inventory at Current Date Current Prices Price Index December 31, 2020 $1,284,000 107 December 31, 2021 1,450,000 125 December 31, 2022 1,625,000 130 What is the cost of the ending inventory at December 31, 2021 under dollar-value LIFO
Answer: $1,175,000
Explanation:
Cost of ending inventory December 31, 2021;
= December 2019 ending inventory + {(Inventory at 2021 price/2021 index * 2019 index) - December 2019 ending inventory} * 2021 index / 2019 index
= 1,100,000 + {(1,450,000/125 * 100) - 1,100,000} * 125/100
= 1,100,000 + 75,000
= $1,175,000

According to the Kinked Demand Curve Model, If one firm operating in an oligopoly raises its price and other firms do not do so, A. the sales of the firm with the higher price will decline slightly. B. the egos of all the top executives will eventually lead to cooperation at that higher price. C. the sales of the firm that increased its price will decline sharply. D. the firm with the increased price will have its higher profits sustained through cooperation.
Answer:
C. the sales of the firm that increased its price will decline sharply.
Explanation:
A kinked demand curve is basically a demand curve that changes direction at an specific point (generally the equilibrium price). When you are dealing with oligopolies, generally competing firms will match price cuts but they will not follow if instead the price increases.
If only one of the oligopolistic competitors increases their price while the others remain stable, sales volume will decrease. Kinked models are based on the assumption that oligopolies will compete focusing on factors other than price.

Diamond and Turf Inc. is considering an investment in one of two machines. The sewing machine will increase productivity from sewing 130 baseballs per hour to sewing 234 per hour. The contribution margin per unit is $0.48 per baseball. Assume that any increased production of baseballs can be sold. The second machine is an automatic packing machine for the golf ball line. The packing machine will reduce packing labor cost. The labor cost saved is equivalent to $26 per hour. The sewing machine will cost $305,500, have an eight-year life, and will operate for 1,400 hours per year. The packing machine will cost $131,800, have an eight-year life, and will operate for 1,200 hours per year.

If Diamond and Turf has sufficient funds for only one of the machines and qualitative factors are equal between the two machines, in which machine should it invest?
Answer:
A) Sewing machine:
initial outlay = -$305,500
net cash flow per year = (234 baseballs per hour - 130 baseballs per hour) x 1,400 hours x $0.48 per baseball = $69,888
NPV = -$305,500 + ($69,888 x 4.968) = -$305,500 + $347,203.58 = $41,703.58
Packing machine:
initial outlay = -$131,800
net cash flow per year = 1,200 hours x $26 per hour = $31,200
NPV = -$131,800 + ($31,200 x 4.968) = -$131,800 + $155,001.60 = $23,201.60
B) PVI of sewing machine = $347,203.58 / $305,500 = 1.137
PVI of packing machine = $155,001.60 / $131,800 = 1.176
C) They should invest in the packing machine since its PVI is higher, meaning that it increases the company's value by a higher amount per dollar invested.

Stock in CDB Industries has a beta of .97. The market risk premium is 7.2 percent, and T-bills are currently yielding 4.2 percent. The most recent dividend was $2.60 per share, and dividends are expected to grow at an annual rate of 5.2 percent indefinitely. If the stock sells for $48 per share, what is your best estimate of the company's cost of equity? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
11.04%
Explanation:
Using CAMP
Cost of Equity= Risk Free rate +Beta *Market risk Premium
= 4.2% + 0.97 *7.2%
= 11.18%
Using Dividend Discount Model:
Cost of Equity = (D1 / P0)+g
g= Growth rate =5.2% =0.052
D1 = Current Dividend * (1+g) = 2.60 * (1 +0.052) = 2.7352
P0 = Current Price =$48
Hence Cost of Equity = (2.7352 /48) + 0.052
=0.10898
=10.90%
Average Cost of Equity = (11.18+ 10.9 )/ 2 = 11.04%
We can express a firm in terms of a call/put option. In this context, the equity in the firm is like the (a) with its strike price being the face value of debt. From another perspective, stockholders position is equivalent to holding a portfolio of a long
2 position of the (b), a short position of the (c), and a long position of the (d). Which of the following has the correct answers for blanks (a)-(d) in that order?
A. futures on the firm; firm; put option on the firm; risk-free zero-coupon bond
B. put option on the firm; firm; call option on the firm; risk-free zero-coupon bond
C. call option on the firm; firm; put option on the firm; risk-free zero-coupon bond
D. put option on the firm; firm; risk-free zero-coupon bond; call option on the firm
E. call option on the firm; firm; risk-free zero-coupon bond; put option on the firm
Answer:
E. call option on the firm; firm; risk-free zero-coupon bond; put option on the firm
Explanation:
As we know that
If we add the stock price and the put i.e. equivalent to the call and the risk free bond
In an equation form, it can be presented below
Put + stock price = call + PV(risk free bond)
So according to the above equation form, the option E is correct as it fits to the current situation given in the question
Hence, the correct option is E
And, the rest of the options are wrong
Which business is exempt from using the accrual basis for accounting? A clothing manufacturer that has average gross annual receipts of $35 million over the last three years. An online retailer that has average gross annual receipts of $45 million over the last three years. A construction contractor who does not have any outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the tax year. A home improvement store that just began business last year and had $2.7 million in gross receipts.
Answer:
A home improvement store that just began business last year and had $2.7 million in gross receipts.
Explanation:
The IRS allows only a limited number of businesses to use cash basis accounting and in order to do so, the business must be:
Partnership or C corporation with less than $5 million in total sales revenue per yearSole proprietorship or S corporation with less than $1 million in total sales revenueCannot be a publicly traded corporationPersonal service businesses with more than 95% of revenue specifically related to services. Family owned farms with total annual sales revenue less than $25 million.In the challenging world of retail sales, Macy's, Inc.'s (M's) revenues are declining while expenses are generally flat. Based on recent conversations with management at Macy's, analysts believe that dividends will decline at a rate of 7% perpetually. The firm just paid a dividend of $5.10 per share and the required return on the stock is 3%
a) At what price should a share of M stock sell today? (2 pts.)
b) Calculate what the stock should sell for 8 years from now. 12 pts.)
c) Briefly explain, perhaps with the aid of a single calculation, why an investor would still be interested in buying the stock today even though the stock price is predicted to fall acrosats time. (2 pts.)
Answer
a) Gordon's Constant Growth model : P0 = D1 / (r-g)
r = 3% =0.03 , g= -7% = -0.07 , D0 = $5.1
D1 = D0*(1+g)
D1 = 5.1*(1-0.07)
D1 = $4.743
P0 = 4.743/(0.03- (-0.07))
P0 = 4.743/0.10
P0 = $47.43
So, Stock M should sell at a price of $47.43 today
b) Price 8 years from now
==> P8 = D9/(r-g)
P8 = D0*(1+g)^9/(r-g)
P8 = 5.1* (1-0.07)^9 / (0.03- (-0.07))
P8 = 5.1*0.52041108298 / (0.03- (-0.07))
P8 = 2.65410
P8 = $26.54
c) Investor may want to buy the stock today for the Dividends. If the dividends paid are high enough, the present value of the dividends is also high and may more than compensate the fall in stock price. This type of stocks work and give cash flows like a project where the initial cashflows are higher and later cashflows are less because of market factors.

The stock of Stock M has a beta of 1.48 and an expected return of 12.50 percent. The risk-free rate of return is 5 percent. What is the expected return on the market?
Answer:
10.07%
Explanation:
Calculation for the Expected return
Using this formula
Expected return =(Expected return-Risk-free rate)/Beta+Risk-free rate
Let plug in the formula
Expected return=(0.125 –0.05)/1.48 + 0.05
Expected return=0.075/1.48+0.05
Expected return=0.05068+0.05
Expected return=0.1007*100
Expected return=10.07%
Therefore the expected return on the market will be 10.07%
Why will the number of suppliers in the tourism industry decrease, and how will this consolidation of suppliers take place
Answer:
In the current negative economic climate, suppliers in the tourism industry are likely to consolidate because many small suppliers do not have enough revenue to continue operating, and in such situation, they can be easily absorbed by larger, more solvent competitors.
Besides, the industry had been consolidating in the years prior to the current crisis. For example, Airbnb, with its innovative business model and global reach, had made many small suppliers go out of business in several cities of the world.
