Assume Dell's yearly inventory cost is 30 percent to account for the cost of capital for financing the inventory, the warehouse space, and the cost of obsolescence. In other words, Dell incurs a cost of $30 for a $100 component that is in the company's inventory for one entire year. In 2001, Dell's 10-k reports showed that the company had $280 million in inventory and COGS of $23,100 million. To compute the percentage of cost of the inventory, determine the following:
a. Find the value of the inventory.
b. Find the cost of goods sold.
c. Compute inventory turns. (Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)
d. What percentage of cost of a Dell computer reflects inventory costs? (Round the answer to 3 decimal places.)
Answer:

Explanation
1. Value of inventory sold
= $280 million in inventory + COGS $23,100 million
= $303,100 million
2. Cost of goods sold
From the above passage, we have been given the COGS , which is $23,100 million
3. Compute inventory turns
= Cost of goods sold / Average stock
= $23,100 million / $151,550

Delisa Corporation has two divisions: Division L and Division Q. Data from the most recent month appear below: Total Company Division L Division Q Sales $490,000 $125,000 $365,000 Variable expenses 288,800 62,500 226,300 Contribution margin 201,200 62,500 138,700 Traceable fixed expenses 111,650 34,790 76,860 Segment margin 89,550 $ 27,710 $ 61,840 Common fixed expenses 36,910 Net operating income $ 52,640 The break-even in sales dollars for Division Q is closest to:
Answer:
Break-even point (dollars)= $202,263.16
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Division Q:
Sales= $365,000
Total variable costs= 226,300
Fixed costs= 76,860
To calculate the break-even point for Division Q, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 76,860 / [(365,000 - 226,300) / 365,000]
Break-even point (dollars)= 76,860 / 0.38
Break-even point (dollars)= $202,263.16
Exercise 6-31 (Algorithmic) (LO. 3) Stanford owns and operates two dry cleaning businesses. He travels to Boston to discuss acquiring a restaurant. Later in the month, he travels to New York to discuss acquiring a bakery. Stanford does not acquire the restaurant but does purchase the bakery on November 1, 2020. Stanford incurred the following expenses: Total investigation costs related to the restaurant $35,750 Total investigation costs related to the bakery 53,700 If required, round any division to two decimal places and use in subsequent computation. Round your final answer to the nearest dollar. What is the maximum amount Stanford can deduct in 2020 for investigation expenses
,Answer:
See below
Explanation:
With regards to the above, since the restaurant was not acquired, the cost that is related to acquisition of restaurant will be ignored. It means that the $35,750 will not qualify for deduction.
Also, the expenses for considering the bakery $53,700 will not be allowed all at once.
Now, for any amount exceeding $50,000 there will be a reduction of $5,000
Reduced = $53,700 - $50,000 = $3,700
Then,
$5,000 - $3,700 = $1,300 deductions
Now,
$53,700 - $1,300 = $52,400 which is the deduction allowed in 180 months
Deduction per month = $52,400 / 180 = $291.11. Per month
Deduction for 2 months will be = 2 × $291.11 = $582.22
Therefore, eligible deduction = $582.22 + $1,300 = $1,882.22
Make a simple poem regarding the learning’s that you acquired in managing the finances. (4 Stanzas only with rhyme and with no meter)
Answer:
My net worth is my assets less my liabilities
I should therefore not spend above my capabilities
Pay off the debt required and then a little more
That way I can have, a great credit score
Like everything else, I must plan my finances
Create a budget and include my expenses
And make space for an emergency fund
So on rainy days I don't find myself cashless and hamstrung
Its important to remember that I won't work forever
I should therefore set something aside, to fall back on
When I'm too old and grey to embark on strenuous endeavor
I'll be well taken care of because I remembered my pension
And I shouldn't forget, to keep a proper record
Get educated in a financially sound method
That way I can know what comes in and what goes out
I'll be sure of my situation and leave room for no doubt

An all-equity firm is considering the following projects:
Project Beta IRR
W .67 9.5 %
X .74 10.6
Y 1.37 14.1
Z 1.48 17.1
The T-bill rate is 5.1 percent, and the expected return on the market is 12.1 percent.
a. Compared with the firm's 12.1 percent cost of capital, Project W has a lower expected return, Project X has a lower expected return, Project Y has a higher expected return, and Project Z has a higher expected return.
b. Project W should be rejected , Project X should be accepted , Project Y should be rejected , and Project Z should be accepted .
Answer:
Projects W and X have lower expected returns
Projects Y and Z have higher expected returns
Explanation:
Given
[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{Project} & {Beta} & {IRR} & {W} & {.67} & {9.5\%} & {X} & {.74} & {10.6\%} & {Y} & {1.37} & {14.1\%}& {Z} & {1.48} & {17.1\%} \ \end{array}[/tex]
[tex]T\ Bill\ Rate = 5.1\%[/tex]
[tex]Expected\ Return = 12.1\%[/tex]
Solving (a): Compare the expected return of each project to 12.1%
Expected Return of each project is calculated as:
[tex]Project = T\ Bill + (Beta * (Expected\ Return - T\ Bill))[/tex]
[tex]Project = 5.1\% + (Beta * (12.1\% - 5.1\%))[/tex]
[tex]Project = 5.1\% + (Beta * 7.0\%)[/tex]
For Project W:
[tex]W= 5.1\% + (0.67* 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]W= 5.1\% + 4.69\%[/tex]
[tex]W= 9.79\%[/tex]
Lower Expected return
For Project X:
[tex]X = 5.1\% + (0.74 * 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]X = 5.1\% + 5.18\%[/tex]
[tex]X = 10.28\%[/tex]
Lower Expected return
For Project Y:
[tex]Y = 5.1\% + (1.37 * 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]Y = 5.1\% + 9.59\%[/tex]
[tex]Y = 14.69\%[/tex]
Higher Expected return
For Project Z:
[tex]Z = 5.1\% + (1.48 * 7.0\%)[/tex]
[tex]Z = 5.1\% + 10.36\%[/tex]
[tex]Z = 15.46\%[/tex]
Higher Expected return

ou are planning to save for retirement over the next 30 years. To do this, you will invest $890 per month in a stock account and $490 per month in a bond account. The return of the stock account is expected to be 10.9 percent, and the bond account will pay 6.9 percent. When you retire, you will combine your money into an account with a return of 7.9 percent. How much can you withdraw each month from your account assuming a 25-year withdrawal period
Answer:
Monthly withdraw= $23,294.99
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Stock:
Monthly deposit= $890
Number of periods= 30*12= 360
Interest rate= 0.109 / 12= 0.0091
Bond:
Monthly deposit= $490
Number of periods= 30*12= 360
Interest rate= 0.069 / 12= 0.00575
First, we need to calculate the amount of money collected at the moment of retirement. We need to use the following formula on each investment:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= monthly deposit
Stock:
FV= {890*[(1.0091^360) - 1]} / 0.0091
FV= $2,452,918.1
Bond:
FV= {490*[(1.00575^360) - 1]} / 0.00575
FV= $586,123.47
Total FV= 2,452,918.1 + 586,123.47
Total FV= $3,039,041.57
Now, the monthly withdrawal for 25 years:
Number of periods= 25*12= 300
Interest rate= 0.079 / 12= 0.0066
Monthly withdraw= (FV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Monthly withdraw= (3,039,041.57*0.0066) / [1 - (1.0066^-300)]
Monthly withdraw= $23,294.99

Which one of the following is the reason that bonds may sell at a discount or premium?
A. The market yield rate fluctuated between the time the bond agreement was written and the date the bonds were actually issued to investors
B. Market conditions caused the coupon rate of interest to change between the time the bond agreement was written and the date the bonds were actually issued to investors
C. The bond issuer failed to consider the market yield rate when the bond agreement was created
D. The bond issuer adjusted the coupon rate to match that of other bond issues
Answer:
A. The market yield rate fluctuated between the time the bond agreement was written and the date the bonds were actually issued to investors

Explanation:
Since the value of preferred stock is lower than the value of treasury stock, then the difference must be recorded as additional paid in capital. Additional paid in capital = $39,000,000 - $33,000,000 = $6,000,000
A company that produces pleasure boats has decided to expand one of its lines. Current facilities are insufficient to handle the increased workload, so the company is considering three alternatives, A (new location), B (subcontract), and C (expand existing facilities). Alternative A would involve substantial fixed costs but relatively low variable costs: fixed costs would be $270,000 per year, and variable costs would be $600 per boat. Subcontracting would involve a cost per boat of $2,620, and expansion would require an annual fixed cost of $57,000 and a variable cost of $1,030 per boat.
A. Find the range of output for each alternative that would yield the lowest totalcost.
A. 315,550 or more.
B. 2,550 or 306,000.
C. 57,050 or 182,000.
B. Which alternative would yield the lowest total cost for an expected annual volumeof 120 boats?
A. A.
B. B.
C. C.
Answer:
A. Lowest Total Cost:
A. 315,550 or more
B. Lowest total cost of annual volume of 120 boats
C. C
Explanation:
The lowest total cost among the three alternatives is b.
If the company goes for new location it will have to incur fixed cost of $270,000 and variable cost per boat will be $600.
If the company Subcontracts then Total cost per boat is $2,620
If a company goes for expanding existing facility then it will incur fixed cost of $57,000 and variable cost will be $1,030 per boat.
If company produces 315,000 or more boats then it will have lowest possible cost for the boat.
For an output of 120 bots the best possible alternative is option C. The fixed cost will be $475 per boat ($57,000 / 120 boats)
The total cost will be $1,505 ($475 + $1,030)

All of the following are assumptions of the perfectly competitive model except: Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a consumers have perfect information regarding product price, quality, and availability. b the output of one firm in the market is a perfect substitute for the output of other firms in the market. c the market consists of a large number of firms, and each firm is small relative to the entire market. d entry into the market in the long run is barred.
Answer:
d
Explanation:
A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.
In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.
Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.
Perfectly competitive market consists of a large number of firms, and each firm is small relative to the entire market. This makes firms unable to set the prices for their goods.
It is the monopoly and oligopoly market structure that is characterised by high entry and exit into the market
The management of Nova Industries Inc. manufactures gasoline and diesel engines through two production departments, Fabrication and Assembly. Management needs accurate product cost information in order to guide product strategy. Presently, the company uses a single plantwide factory overhead rate for allocating factory overhead to the two products. However, management is considering the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The following factory overhead was budgeted for Nova:
Fabrication Department factory overhead........................................................$440,000
Assembly Department factory overhead............................................................200,000
Total.........................................................................................................................$640,000
Direct labor hours were estimated as follows:______.
Fabrication Department................................................................4,000 hours
Assembly Department....................................................................4,000
Total..................................................................................................8,000 hours
In addition, the direct labor hours (dlh) used to produce a unit of each product in each
department were determined from engineering records, as follows:_______.
Production Departments Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Fabrication Department 6.0 dlh 4.0 dlh
Assembly Department 4.0 6.0
Direct labor hours per unit 10.0 dlh 10.0 dlh
a. Determine the per-unit factory overhead allocated to the gasoline and diesel engines under the single plantwide factory overhead rate method, using direct labor hours as the activity base.
b. Determine the per-unit factory overhead allocated to the gasoline and diesel engines under the multiple production department factory overhead rate method, using direct labor hours as the activity base for each department.
c. Recommend to management a product costing approach, based on your analyses in (a) and (b). Support your recommendation.
Answer:
Nova Industries Inc.
Factory Overhead allocated:
a. Under the single plantwide factory overhead cost per direct hours:
Overhead allocated to Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Direct labor hours (10 each) $800 $800
b. Under the multiple production department factory overhead rate method:
Overhead allocated to Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Total overhead allocated $860 $740
c. The multiple production department overhead rate method is recommended. It takes into account the activity usage by each department and looks fairer.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
factory overhead was budgeted for Nova:
Fabrication Department factory overhead $440,000
Assembly Department factory overhead 200,000
Total $640,000
Direct labor hours were estimated as follows:______.
Fabrication Department 4,000 hours
Assembly Department 4,000 hours
Total 8,000 hours
In addition, the direct labor hours (dlh) used to produce a unit of each product in each department were determined from engineering records, as follows:_______.
Production Departments Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Fabrication Department 6.0 dlh 4.0 dlh
Assembly Department 4.0 6.0
Direct labor hours per unit 10.0 dlh 10.0 dlh
Plantwide per unit factory overhead = Total overhead costs/Total direct labor hours
= $640,000/8,000 = $80
a. Overhead allocated to Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Direct labor hours (10 each) $800 ($80 * 10) $800 ($80 * 10)
Multiple production department per unit factory overhead:
Fabrication Department factory overhead $440,000/4,000 = $110
Assembly Department factory overhead 200,000/4,000 = $50
b. Overhead allocated to Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Fabrication Department $660 (6.0 * $110) $440 (4.0 * $110)
Assembly Department 200 (4.0 * $50) 300 (6.0 * $50)
Total overhead allocated $860 $740
Following are the solution to the given points:
For point a:
[tex]\text{Plantwide overhead rate} = \frac{\text{Total factory overhead}}{\text{Total direct labor hours}}[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{\$560,000}{ 8,000}\\\\= \$70 \ / DLH [/tex]
Calculating the value of gasoline engine[tex]= (4 \times \$70)=\$280\ / unit [/tex]
Calculating the value of diesel engine[tex]= (4 \times \$70)= \$280 / unit[/tex]
For point b:
Calculating the value of gasoline engine:
[tex]=[(1.20\times 100) + (2.80 \times \$40)] \\\\ =\$232 / unit [/tex]
Calculating the value of diesel engines:
[tex]=[(2.80\times \$100) + (1.20 \times \$40)]\\\\ =\$328 / unit [/tex]
Calculating the value of departmental overhead rate:
Calculating the value of fabrication:
[tex]= (\frac{\$400,000}{ 4,000}) \\\\ = \$100 / DLH [/tex]
Calculating the value of assembly:
[tex] = (\frac{\$160,000}{ 4,000}) \\\\ = \$40 / DLH[/tex]
For point c:
The Multiple department factory overhead rate method of allocating overhead costs should be chosen by management. Per the Single plantwide factory overhead rate technique, both items have the same manufacturing cost per unit. The direct work hours are now used differently with each product. Hence, by accounting for overhead in every production department independently, this multiple department price method avoids cost distortions.Learn more:
