Cusic Music Company is considering the sale of a new sound board used in recording studios. The new board would sell for $24,700, and the company expects to sell 1,640 per year. The company currently sells 1,990 units of its existing model per year. If the new model is introduced, sales of the existing model will fall to 1,660 units per year. The old board retails for $23,100. Variable costs are 53 percent of sales, depreciation on the equipment to produce the new board will be $1,035,000 per year, and fixed costs are $3,250,000 per year. If the tax rate is 24 percent, what is the annual OCF for the project

Answers

Answer: $9,524,922

Explanation:

The annual OCF of the project will be calculated as

= EBIT + Depreciation - taxes

First, we have to calculate the EBIT which will be:

= [ $24,700 x 1,640 - ( 1,990-1,660 x $23,100 ]

= $40,508,000 - (330 × $23100)

= $40,508,000 - $7,623,000

= $ 32,885,000

Variable cost will then be:

= $32,885,000 × 53%

= $32,885,000 x 0.53

= $ 17,429,050

Therefore, EBIT will be:

= $32,885,000 - $ 17,429,050 - Fixed cost - depreciation

= $32,885,000 - $ 17,429,050 - $3,250,000 - $1,035,000

= $11,170,950

Then, we calculate the value of tax which will be:

= $11,170,950 x 0.24

= $2,681,028

Therefore, OCF will be:

= EBIT + Depreciation - taxes

= $11,170,950 + $1,035,000 - $2,681,028

= $9,524,922

A newly formed company purchases investments classified as available-for-sale securities at a cost of $13,000. At the end of the year, the market value of the securities was $11,000. The financial statements at the end of the year would show which of the following?
A. No loss on the income statement Available-for-sale investments of $11,000 and an unrealized loss of $2,000 in stockholders' equity on the balance sheet
B. No loss on the income statement Available-for-sale investments of $13,000 on the balance sheet
C. Income Statement loss of $2,000 Available-for-sale investments of $13,000 on the balance sheet
D. Loss of $2,000 on the income statement Temporary investments of $11,000 on the balance sheet

Answers

Answer: A. No loss on the income statement Available-for-sale investments of $11,000 and an unrealized loss of $2,000 in stockholders' equity on the balance sheet.

Explanation:

Available-For-Sale (AFS) securities are not to have their gains or losses reflected in the income statement. They are to be reflected in the Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) section of the Stockholders Equity.

If there is a loss, the AFS security is written down by the loss amount which is then transferred to the OCI section of equity as an unrealized loss. It will reduce the OCI which would reduce the stockholders equity.

In this case therefore, AFS would go to $11,000 and OCI would record an unrealized loss of $2,000.

A study by the Environmental Protection Agency looked at the costs and benefits of the Clean Air Act from 1970 to 1990. This study found that a middle-range estimate of health and other benefits of cleaner air were valued at $22 trillion. This amount was about __________________ than the costs of reducing pollution, which was around $500 billion, in the same period.

Answers

Answer: d. 44 times higher

Explanation:

The benefits of cleaner air was $22 trillion and the cost of reducing pollution was $500 billion.

The number of times that you would have to multiply this cost of reducing pollution to get to the benefits of cleaner air is:

= 22 trillion / 500 billion

= 22,000 billion / 500 billion

= 44 times higher

A firm has an average loan outstanding of $75,000,000 on a $100,000,000 line of credit. There is a commitment fee of 0.25% on the unused portion of the line, and the interest rate on the borrowed funds is LIBOR 175 basis points. LIBOR is 3.0%. What is the effective annual borrowing rate on the line of credit

Answers

Answer:

2.44%

Explanation:

Average outstanding loan = $75,000,000

Total line of credit = $100,000,000

Unused portion = $25,000,000 ($100,000,000-$75,000,000)

Commitment fee = 0.25%

Interest rate = 3.175% (3+0.175%)

Commitment fee = Unused portion*Commitment fee rate

Commitment fee = $25,000,000*0.0025

Commitment fee = $62,500

Interest = Average outstanding balance*Interest rate

Interest = $75,000,000*0.03175

Interest = $2,381,250

Total borrowing cost = Commitment fee + Interest

Total borrowing cost = $62,500 + $2,381,250

Total borrowing cost = $2,443,750

Effective borrowing rate = Total borrowing cost / Credit limit

Effective borrowing rate = $2,443,750/$100,000,000

Effective borrowing rate = 0.0244375

Effective borrowing rate = 2.44%

Reform Traders current net operating income is $16,800 and its average operating assets are $90,000. The company's required rate of return is 15%. A new project being considered would require an investment of $28,000 and would generate annual net operating income of $3,100. What is the residual income of the new project

Answers

Answer:

- $4,200

Explanation:

residual income = net operating income - cost of investment

therefore

residual income = $3,100 - $28,000 x 15%

                           = - $4,200

The residual income of the new project is - $4,200

Indiana Co. began a construction project in 2021 with a contract price of $162 million to be received when the project is completed in 2023. During 2021, Indiana incurred $40 million of costs and estimates an additional $84 million of costs to complete the project. Indiana recognizes revenue over time and for this project recognizes revenue over time according to the percentage of the project that has been completed.
Suppose that, in 2022, Indiana incurred additional costs of $65 million and estimated an additional $52 million in costs to complete the project. Indiana (Do not round your percentage calculated):
A) Recognized $8.91 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
B) Recognized $11.91 million gross profit on the project in 2022.
C) Recognized $3.00 million loss on the project in 2022.
D) Recognized $8.91 million loss on the project in 2022.

Answers

Answer:

D) Recognized $8.91 million loss on the project in 2022.

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

For Year 2021:

Percentage of work completed in the year 2021 is

= $40 ÷ ($40 + $84)× 100

= $40 ÷ $124 × 100

= 32.26%

Profit on the contract is

= Contract price - Already incurred cost - Expected cost

= $162 - $40 - $84

= $38

Profit to be recognized in the year 2016 is

= profit × percentage of completion

= $38 × 32.26%

= $12.256

For Year 2022:

Percentage of work completed in the year 2017 is

= ($40 + $65) ÷ ($40 + $65 + $52)

= $105 ÷ $157 × 100

= 66.88%  

Profit on the contract is

= Contract price - Already incurred cost - Expected cost

= $162 - $40 - $65 - $52

= $5

Profit that should be recognized till the year 2017 is

= profit × percentage of completion

= $5 × 66.88%

= $3.344

Profit to be recognized in the year 2017 is

= $3.344 - $12.256

= 8.91 million loss

ABM, Kaizen Costing Baker, Inc., supplies wheels for a large bicycle manufacturing company. The bicycle company has recently requested that Baker decrease its delivery time. Baker made a commitment to reduce the lead time for delivery from seven days to one day. To help achieve this goal, engineering and production workers had made the commitment to reduce time for the setup activity (other activities such as moving materials and rework were also being examined simultaneously). Current setup times were 12 hours. Setup cost was $600 per setup hour. For the first quarter, engineering developed a new process design that it believed would reduce the setup time from 12 hours to nine hours. After implementing the design, the actual setup time dropped from 12 hours to seven hours. Engineering believed the actual reduction was sustainable. In the second quarter, production workers suggested a new setup procedure. Engineering gave the suggestion a positive evaluation, and they projected that the new approach would save an additional six hours of setup time. Setup labor was trained to perform the new setup procedures. The actual reduction in setup time based on the suggested changes was four hours.
Required:
1. What kaizen setup standard would be used at the beginning of each quarter?
2. How much non-value-added cost was eliminated by the end of two quarters?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

the computation is shown below:

1. Setup Time standard

Here the first quarter standard would be considered i.e. 9 hours so we dont take the actual setup time  

The Second quarter is  1 hour  that denotes the Expected setup time

2. The Total non-value cost which got eliminated is

Since, The setup time was Decrease from 12 hours to 3 hours.

So, the Total non value added cost eliminated is

= $600 × (12 - 3)

= $600 × 9

= $5,400

Metlock Mining Company purchased land on February 1, 2020, at a cost of $1,101,100. It estimated that a total of 58,200 tons of mineral was available for mining. After it has removed all the natural resources, the company will be required to restore the property to its previous state because of strict environmental protection laws. It estimates the fair value of this restoration obligation at $112,500. It believes it will be able to sell the property afterwards for $125,000. It incurred developmental costs of $250,000 before it was able to do any mining. In 2020, resources removed totaled 29,100 tons. The company sold 21,340 tons.
Compute the following information for 2020.
(a) Per unit mineral cost: _______
(b) Total material cost of December 31, 2020, inventory:_______
(c) Total material cost in cost of goods sold at December 31, 2020:_______

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

(a)

Purchase price of Land $1,101,100

Add: Fair value of restoration $112,500

Less: residual value -$125,000

Developmental costs $250,000

Total $1,388,600

Divided by Tons available for mining  58,200

Per unit Material cost $23.00

(b)  Inventory $178,480 (29100 - 21340) × $23  

(c ) Cost of goods sold  $490,820   (21340 × $23)

For many years, college costs (including tuition, fees, and room and board) increases have been higher than the inflation rate, averaging 5% to 8% per year. According to the College Board's Trends in College Pricing, the average total costs at present in dollars is $19,500 for students attending in-state four-year public colleges and universities and $41,000 for students at four-year private colleges and universities. Assume an additional $5,000 per year for textbooks, supplies, transportation, and other expenses.
Using a 7% per year inflation rate, how much can a sophomore high-school student expect to spend on in-state tuition, fees, and room and board for the freshman year (3 years from now) at a four-year public university?
A sophomore high-school student is expected to spend $ for the freshman year.

Answers

Answer: $23,888

Explanation:

The cost today for a freshman at a public university is $19,500.

Inflation is at 7% a year and the period is 3 years from now. It is best to use a future value formula:

= Fees * ( 1 + rate) ^ number of years

= 19,500 * ( 1 + 7%)³

= 19,500 * 1.225043

= $23,888
