Barton Steel is considering the purchase of a new steel mill. The first option is a top of the line high efficiency mill with a cost of $25 million. This mill will generate cash flows of $10 million per year for the next six years. At the end of the sixth year, Barton will have to reclaim the land under the new mill at a cost of $15 million. The second option is an economy mill that will generate $4 million in cash flows for the next six years, but require no land reclamation. This mill costs $12 million. If Barton estimates its cost of capital to be 9.5% which project should they accept
Answer:
The first project should be chosen
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
To determine which project to accept, calculate the NPV for the two projects
The first option
Cash flow in year 0 = $-25 million
Cash flow each year for year 1 - 5 = $10 million
Cash flow in year 6 = $10 million - $15 million = $-5 million
I = 9.5
NPV = $10.50 million
Option two
Cash flow in year 0 = $-12 million
Cash flow each year for year 1 - 6 = $4 million
I = 9.5
NPV = $5.68 million
The first option should be chosen because the NPV of the first option yields the higher NPV
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Causwell Company began 2021 with 12,000 units of inventory on hand. The cost of each unit was $5.00. During 2021 an additional 32,000 units were purchased at a single unit cost, and 22,000 units remained on hand at the end of 2021 (22,000 units therefore were sold during 2021). Causwell uses a periodic inventory system. Cost of goods sold for 2021, applying the average cost method, is $118,800. The company is interested in determining what cost of goods sold would have been if the FIFO or LIFO methods were used.
Required:
a. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the FIFO method.
b. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the LIFO method.
Answer:
a) COGS under FIFO = $110,340
b) COGS under LIFO = $125,850
Explanation:
beginning inventory 12,000 units x 5 = $60,000
purchases 32,000 x ? = $?
ending inventory = 22,000 units
COGS applying weighted average = $118,800
total units sold = 12,000 + 32,000 - 22,000 = 20,000
cost per unit sold = $5.94
total cost for 44,000 units = $261,360
cost of purchased units = ($261,360 - $60,000) = $201,360
cost per unit purchased = $6.2925
COGS under LIFO = 20,000 x $6.2925 = $125,850
COGS under FIFO = (12,000 x $5) + (8,000 x $6.2925) = $110,340

A company’s capital structure decisions address the ways a firm’s assets are financed (using debt, preferred stock, and common equity capital) and is often presented as a percentage of the type of financing used. As with all financial decisions, the firm should try to set a capital structure that maximizes the stock price, or shareholder value. This is called the optimal capital structure. Which of the following statements regarding a firm’s optimal capital structure is true? The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s cost of equity. The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s earnings per share (EPS). The optimal capital structure maximizes the firm’s cost of debt. The optimal capital structure minimizes the firm’s weighted average cost of capital.
Answer:
Option D (The optimal........capital) would be the right choice.
Explanation:
The optimal composition of capital would be the one with the lowest average capital structure. Such alternatives are meaningless since the optimal capital structure is not reflected by them. Maximizing earnings growth, interest burdens, or equity burdens would not enhance the worth including its shareholder.What is the purpose of a W-2 form?
c. Which asset was riskiest during the Great Depression? How does that fit with your intuition? (Select the best choice below.) A. The riskiest assets were the corporate bonds. Intuition tells us that company debt should be riskiest. B. The riskiest assets were the stocks in the S&P 500. Intuition tells us that large companies should be the riskiest. C. The riskiest assets were the small stocks. Intuition tells us that smaller companies should be riskiest. D. The riskiest assets were the Treasury Bills. Intuition tells us that government securities would be the riskiest.
Answer:
The correct answer to the question is OPTION C (The riskiest assets were the small stocks. Intuition tells us that smaller companies should be riskiest.)
Explanation:
The riskiest assets were the small stocks.
The Great Depression was a term in the 20th century that became synonymous with hardship, suffering due significantly to the failure of the economy in the world with evidence of crash in the stock market.
The riskiest assets were the small stocks because it already crashed as panic made some stop investing and a lot of banks lost money. So small stocks were not lucrative again then, making it a risky asset to have.
Instinct tells us that smaller companies should be the riskiest because investing in smaller companies could be less lucrative due to a fall in the value of shares in tough times as compared to bigger companies.

Dacosta Corporation had only one job in process on May 1. The job had been charged with $2,400 of direct materials, $6,966 of direct labor, and $10,104 of manufacturing overhead cost. The company assigns overhead cost to jobs using the predetermined overhead rate of $19.60 per direct labor-hour. During May, the following activity was recorded: Raw materials (all direct materials): Beginning balance $ 9,100 Purchased during the month $ 38,600 Used in production $ 39,900 Labor: Direct labor-hours worked during the month 2,500 Direct labor cost incurred $ 25,110 Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred $ 33,900 Inventories: Raw materials, May 30 ? Work in process, May 30 $ 17,093 Work in process inventory on May 30 contains $3,849 of direct labor cost. Raw materials consist solely of items that are classified as direct materials. The cost of goods manufactured for May was:
Answer:
$116,387
Explanation:
Opening work in process = Direct materials + Direct Labor + Overheads
= $2,400 + $6,966 + $10,104
= $19,470
Adding up all the cost for the period, we'll have;
Raw materials = $39,900 used in production
Direct labor cost = $25,110
Overheads to be applied on predetermined rate = 2,500 × $19.6
= $49,000
Total cost incurred including beginning work in process = $133,480
Less: Closing work in process $17,093
Total cost of goods manufactured = $116,387

Answer:
1. Which firm has a greater FCF (free cash flow)?
(A) Firm A2. What is firm A’s (annual) tax shield?
(B) $0.83. What is firm B’s (annual) tax shield?
(C) $3.2Explanation:
since firm A's debt is $20, its value is $100, then its equity = $80
since firm B's debt is $80, its value is $100, then its equity = $20
Firm A's cash flow = (EBIT - interest expense) x (1 - tax rate) = [$10 - ($20 x 10%)] x 0.6 = $4.80
Firm B's cash flow = (EBIT - interest expense) x (1 - tax rate) = [$10 - ($80 x 10%)] x 0.6 = $1.20
Firm A's annual tax shield = taxable interest x tax rate = ($20 x 10%) x 40% = $0.80
Firm B's annual tax shield = taxable interest x tax rate = ($80 x 10%) x 40% = $3.20
Use the information in each of the following separate cases to calculate the unknown amount. Corentine Co. had $171,000 of accounts payable on September 30 and $142,000 on October 31.

Answer:
1. $329,000
2.$108,390
3. $28,750
Explanation:
1. The computation of cash paid is below
= Opening balance of accounts payable + Purchase made - Ending balance of account payable
= $171,000 + $300,000 - $142,000
= $329,000
2. Computation of sales
= Ending balance of accounts receivable + Cash receipts -Opening balance of accounts receivable
= $108,000 + $112,390 - $112,000
= $108,390
3. Opening cash balance
= Cash disbursements + Ending cash balance - Cash receipts
= $122,150 + $28,100 - $121,500
= $28,750

Acme Inc. has 200 total employees, 150 of which are nonexcludable employees. Ten employees are highly compensated. Seven of the 10 highly compensated and 100 of the 140 nonhighly compensated employees are covered under Acme's qualified plan. The average accrued benefits for the highly compensated is 3% and the average accrued benefit for the nonhighly compensated is 1.5%. Which of the following statements is true regarding coverage? The Plan Passes the ratio percentage test. The plan passes the average benefits test. a. Both 1 and 2. b. 1 only. c. Neither 1 nor 2. d. 2 only.
Answer:
b. 1 only.
The Plan Passes the ratio percentage test.Explanation:
the ratio percentage test = ratio of non-HCE / ratio of HCE ≥ 70%
ratio percentage test = (100/140) / (7/10) = 0.71/0.7 = 1.02 or 102% ≥ 70% ✓ passed
the average benefits test = 1.5% / 3% = 0.5 or 50% ≤ 70% X failed
This means that the highly compensated employees receive disproportionately high benefits from the plan.

Answer: b. Innovation meets revolution. We create value of our customers around the world through breakthrough designs that lead to unique high-performance products.
Explanation:
Baldwin creates value around the world for a variety of customers. Using breakthrough designs, they are able to offer low prices to domestic consumers, premium products across the globe, low technology products for the people who prefer it and high technology for those who prefer that as well.
The first option is wrong because the global customers of Baldwin are not mentioned.
The third is wrong as well because they do not only build premium products as they build low technology products as well.
The fourth option is also wrong because it would seem that the low price is only offered domestically not across the world.
g The Dynatech Brewing Company is a small craft brewer that produces five standard varieties of beer. The beers sell for $6 per six-pack, and the company currently sells 7,000 six-packs per month. The company is considering producing a seasonal beer that will be sold in October, November, and December. The company estimates that at $6 per six-pack, the company will sell 1,400 six-packs. At $7 per six-pack, sales will be 700 six-packs. The company also estimates that sales of the seasonal beer will eat into sales of its standard items. Specifically, for every 700 six-packs of the seasonal beer that are sold, 210 six-packs of the standard varieties will not be sold. The variable production costs of all beers is $1.70 per six-pack. Calculate the incremental profit associated with the two selling prices under consideration for the seasonal beer (i.e., $6 and $7 per six-pack). (Enter loss using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).) $6 per six-pack $7 per six-pack Incremental profit/(loss) $enter a dollar amount $enter a dollar amount eTextbook and Media Should Dynatech Brewing produce the beer

A company has the following information available for the year ending December 31, 2019:_______.
Service Revenue $91,300
Operating Expenses $52,900
Gain on Sale of Land $32,000
Loss on Sale of Equipment ($2,000)
Retained Earnings, 12/31/2019 $100,000
Dividends declared in 2019 $22,000
Required:
Calculate the company's (A) net income or loss for the year ending December 31, 2019 and (B) the balance in Retained earnings on January 1, 2019, the beginning of the fiscal year.
Answer:
a. $4,400
b. $117,600
Explanation:
The computation of the net income or loss for the year is shown below:
= Service revenue + gain on sale of land - operating expenses - loss on sale of equipment
= $91,300 + $32,000 - $52,900 - $2,000
= $4,400
Now the beginning retained earning balance is
As we know that
Ending retained earning balance = Opening retained earning balance + net income - dividend paid
$100,000 = Opening retained earning balance + $4,400 - $22,000
So,
The Opening retained earning balance
= $100,000 + $22,000 - $4,400
= $117,600

babysits on the weekends for extra money. Suppose that three neighbors with children are interested in paying Elizabeth to babysit their children. In particular, Mr. and Dr. Brown would be willing to pay $31 to have Elizabeth babysit their children, Mr. Smith would be willing to pay $28 for Elizabeth's babysitting services, and Professor Jones and Mr. Jones would be willing to pay $22 to have her watch their children. If Elizabeth offers to babysit each set of children for an evening for $22, what will be consumer surplus, considering the three sets of children combined? $nothing. (Enter your response using an integer.)
Answer:
$15
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the price the consumer pay for good/service minus the amount the consumer is willing to pay for it.
✓Mr. and Dr. Brown would be willing to pay $31
✓Mr. Smith would be willing to pay $28
✓Professor Jones and Mr. Jones would be willing to pay $22
Elizabeth PRICE for babysitting each set of children for an evening = $22
Consumer surplus= Σ (price that the consumer is willing to pay- Price of the good/service is sold)
= [(31-22)+(28-22)+(22-22)]
= 9+6+0
=$15
Hence, Consumer surplus is $15
Suppose that you start working for a company at age 25. You are offered two rather unlikely, but quite enticing, retirement plans from which you are allowed to choose one. [Round all answers to the nearest dollar.]Retirement plan 1: When you retire, you will receive $20,000 for each year of service.Retirement plan 2: When you start work, the company deposits $2500 into a savings account that is guaranteed to pay a yearly rate of 18%. When you retire, the account will be closed and the balance given to you.A. Determine the amount you would receive under plan 1, if you retired at age 55.
Answer:
Total amount= $600,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Suppose that you start working for a company at age 25.
Option 1:
$20,000 for each year of work.
Number of years of service= 55 - 25= 30 years
Now, the total retirement plan:
Total amount= 30*20,000= $600,000
The Hampton Inn in Stow, Ohio, has two sets of employees, the front desk staff and the housekeeping staff. There is always one front desk clerk on duty at all times, 24/7, and all of the front desk clerks make $8.00 an hour.The housekeeping staff is also paid $8.00 an hour, but they are paid for the number of hours that it takes them to clean the rooms in the hotel. Each room takes 30 minutes to clean, but if a room has not been used the night before, it does not have to be cleaned, so the housekeeping staff work fewer hours on days when the hotel is not as full.The hotel calculates its profitability on a per-room basis, since they have some costs that vary with the number of rooms that are occupied on a particular night. Right now, their costs other than staff wages are marketing expenses of $5,400 per month, management salaries of $60,000 per month, and general overhead (costs like utilities and insurance) of $30,000 per month.The hotel has 50 rooms, all of which rent for the same price per night.Assuming a 30-day month, what are the hotel’s total fixed costs per day? (Be careful, read all of the cost information carefully and think before you answer this question.)What is the hotel’s variable cost per room?If the hotel fills all of its rooms for the night, what price should they charge to break even?What price should they charge to break even with only 70% of the hotel’s rooms sold for the night?What price should they charge to earn a profit margin of 25% when 70% of the hotel’s rooms are sold for the night?
Answer:
To get total fixed cost
We calculate all expenses
Salaries of clerks = 24hours x 8
= 192
Marketing = 5400/30 = 180
Management = 60000/30 days = 2000
General overhead = 30000/30 = 1000
Total = 180+192+3000+2000
= $3372 a day
2.
It takes half hour to clean a room. And cleaner charges 8 dollars for a full hour.
8x1/2 = $4
3
Question says total rooms = 50
TFC = 3372
Contribution from 1 room
= 3372/50
= $67.44
Price per room = 66.44 + 4
= $71.44
4.
70% occupied rooms = 0.70 x 50
= 35 rooms occupied
3372/35
= $96.34
Charge for a room = 96.34 + 4
= $100.34
5.
Profit margin of 25% given 70% occupancy
3372+(4*35)
= $3512
Percentage on cost = 33.33%
O.3333x3512
= $1171
1172+3512
= $4683
Price for a room = 4683/35
= $133.8

4. Ellen contracts to buy six cases of vintage Fertile Valley wine from Grapes & Vines Winery for $1,200. The contract states that delivery is to be made at Ellen’s residence "on or before May 1, to be used for daughter's wedding reception on May 2." On May 1, Grapes & Vines delivery van is involved in an accident, no wine is delivered that day, and no one from Grapes & Vines tells Ellen. On the morning of May 2, Ellen buys the wine from Happy Hill Winery. That afternoon, just before the reception, Grapes & Vines tenders delivery of the wine at Ellen’s residence. She refuses tender\delivery. Grapes & Vines sues her for breach of contract. How is the court most likely to rule
Answer: In Ellen's favor
Explanation:
A component of the contract between Ellen and Grapes & Vines was breached which was that the wine was to be delivered "on or before May 1''. It was delivered on the 2nd which was a breach of contract which means that the contract can be voided.
If Grapes and Vines uses the defense that their van broke down and therefore it is a care of extraordinary circumstances, all efforts should have been made to contact Ellen to explain this situation. This was not done so Ellen was within her right to cancel the contract.
