Gartner Manufacturing Inc. purchases a component from a Malaysian supplier. The demand for that component is exactly 70 units each day. The company is open for business 250 days each year. When the company reorders the product, the lead time from the supplier is exactly 10 days. The product costs $14.00. The company determined that its inventory carrying cost is 20%. The company's order cost is $30.00. How many orders per year will be made, when using the EOQ
Answer:
Number of orders= 28.59 = 29 orders
Explanation:
Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the ideal order quantity a company should purchase to minimize inventory costs such as holding costs, shortage costs, and order costs.
Economic order quantity (EOQ)= √[(2*D*S)/H]
D= Demand in units
S= Order cost
H= Holding cost
D= 70*250= 17,500
S= $30
H= 14*0.2= $2.8
Now, using the formula:
EOQ= √[(2*17,500*30) / 2.8]
EOQ= √375,000
EOQ= 612.37 = 612
Finally, the number of orders:
Number of orders= total demand / EOQ
Number of orders= 17,500 / 612
Number of orders= 28.59 = 29 orders
ABC's beginning inventory is $2,000 and its ending inventory is $1,000. The inventory turnover is 6 times. Cost of goods sold for the year must equal:
Answer:
$9000
Explanation:
Inventory turnover is an example of an activity ratio
Activity ratios calculate the efficiency of performing daily task of a firm
Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory
Average inventory = (beginning inventory + ending inventory) / 2
($2000 + $1000) / 2 = $1500
6 = cost of goods sold / 1500
To determine cost of goods sold, multiply both sides of the equation by 1500
1500 x 6 = $9000 = cost of goods sold
As the new profit center manager, you switch carriers to a more expensive, but quicker, more responsive transportation carrier. You justify this because when using a(n) ____________ perspective, your overall inventory and warehouse savings more than offset the increase in transportation costs. Group of answer choices lane operations economic order quantity total cost ABC
Answer:
You justify this because when using a(n) _____ABC_____ perspective, your overall inventory and warehouse savings more than offset the increase in transportation costs.
Explanation:
The ABC perspective allocates overhead costs based on the cost drivers and the level of activity consumed by each cost driver. This is the best cost allocation basis. ABC is justified by the fact that activities consume resources or cause costs to be incurred. As a profit center manager, your focus should be on minimizing the activities that drive up costs instead of just focusing on mere cost reduction without paying attention to the cost drivers.
Corey is the city sales manager for RIBS, a national fast food franchise. Every working day, Corey drives his car as follows: Home to office Office to RIBS No. 1 RIBS No. 1 to No. 2 RIBS No. 2 to No. 3 RIBS No. 3 to home Miles 20 15 18 13 30 Corey renders an adequate accounting to his employer. As a result, Corey's reimbursable mileage is: a. O miles. b. 50 miles. C. 66 miles. d. 76 miles. e. None of these.
Answer: e. None of these
Explanation:
Based on the information given, Corey's reimbursable mileage will be:
= 15 miles + 18 miles + 13 miles
= 46 miles.
We should note that the mileage that she used for driving from her home to office and the one that she also used from driving from the last worksite to her home isn't deductible.
Since the answer of 46 miles isn't among the options given, then the answer is "None of these"
Bridge City Consulting bought a building and the land on which it is located for $175,000 cash. The land is estimated to represent 70 percent of the purchase price. The company paid $20,000 for building renovations before it was ready for use. Compute straight-line depreciation on the building at the end of one year, assuming an estimated 10-year useful life and a $19,500 estimated residual value. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) What should be the book value of (a) the land and (b) the building at the end of year 2
Answer:
Part 1
D.E = $5,300
Part 2
a. Book Value = $61,900
b. Book Value = $122,500
Explanation:
Step 1 : Determine the Cost of Buildings
Separate the Cost of Land and the Cost of Building from the Purchase Price
Calculation of the Cost of Building
Purchase Price ($175,000 x 30%) $52,500
Building Renovations $20,000
Total $72,500
Step 2 : Depreciation calculation
Depreciation expense = (Cost - Residual Value) ÷ Useful Life
= ($72,500 - $19,500) ÷ 10
= $5,300
After Year 2
Buildings :
Accumulated Depreciation = $10,600
Book Value = $72,500 - $10,600 = $61,900
Land
Book Value = $175,000 x 70% = $122,500
Note : Land is not depreciated

What is the bond's yeuld to
Answer:
12%
Explanation:
The computation of the yield to maturity is shown below:
Given that
Coupon (pmt) = $ 25
Present Value of Bond (PV) = $598.55
Face Value (FV) = $1000
No of Semi annual Period (nper) = 10 × 2 = 20
Now
The formula to calculate Bond's Half yearly yield to maturity is = rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
= rate(20,25,-598.55,1000)
= 6%
Now Bond's Annual yield to maturity is

Consider a hypothetical economy. Households spend $0.90 of each additional dollar they earn and save the remaining $0.10. The spending multiplier for this economy is ___________. Suppose investment in this economy decreases by $200 billion. The decrease in investment will lead to a decrease in income, generating a decrease in consumption that decreases income yet again, and so on.
Answer:
Spending multiplier = 10Change in consumption = -$180 billionExplanation:
The spending multiplier is calculated by the formula:
= 1 / Marginal propensity to save
The marginal propensity to save is the proportion of every additional dollar that is saved which is this case is $0.10 which is 10%.
Spending multiplier is:
= 1 / 0.1
= 10
Change in consumption as a result of the decrease:
= -200 * marginal propensity to consume
= - 200 * 0.9
= -$180 billion

The campaign manager for a doomed candidate is considering which states to visit during the last frenzied campaign week leading up to the nationwide election. Pennsylvania (P), Wisconsin (W), Florida (F), New York (Y), and North Carolina (C) are all aching for one last visit, but the candidate has only 80 hours and $250 million left in her campaign fund. A visit to Pennsylvania takes 10 hours and costs $15 million but earns 1% of the electorate. A visit to Wisconsin takes 15 hours and costs $20 million and earns 1.5%; a visit to Florida is only $8 million but takes 16 hours and earns 2%, and a visit to New York costs $25 million, requires 2 hours and earns 2% of the electorate. North Carolina requires 18 hours and $22 million per trip but earns 3% of the electorate. What is the objective function if the campaign manager wants to earn the highest electorate
Answer: maximize P + 1.5W + 2F + 2Y + 3C
Explanation:
The objective function refers to an equation that is used in describing the target of production output which maximizes profits.
The objective function is used to determine the profitability of a business as profits are maximized while losses are minimized.
The objective function if the campaign manager wants to earn the highest electorate will be to maximize P + 1.5W + 2F + 2Y + 3C
You purchased 100 shares of MegaCorp for $17 per share four months ago. The brokerage fee was 4% of the total dollar amount of the purchase. Today you sold the shares for $23.50 per share. Brokerage fees were 4% of the total sale value. If you are in the .28 marginal tax bracket, how much tax do you owe (rounded to the nearest dollar) on the capital gain
Answer: $136.64 Owed on Capital gain.
Explanation:
Base on the information given in the question, the tax owed on the capital gain will be calculated thus:
Total purchase cost = 100 × $17 + [(100 × $17) × 4%]
= $1700 + ($1700 × 0.04)
= $1700 + $68
= $1,768
We than calculate the net sale consideration which will be:
= 100 × $23.50 - [(100 × $23.50) × 4%]
= $2350 - ($2350 × 0.04)
= $2350 - $94
= $2,256
Then, the short term capital gain will be:
= $2,256 - $1,768
= $488
The tax on short term capital gain will be:
= $488 × 28%
= $488 × 0.28
= $136.64

Explanation:
Assume the following: The standard labor rate per hour is $17.00. The standard labor-hours allowed per unit of finished goods is 3 hours. The actual quantity of labor hours worked during the period was 44,000 hours. The total actual direct labor cost for the period was $726,000. The company produced 15,000 units of finished goods during the period. What is the labor efficiency variance
Answer: $17,000
Explanation:
Labour efficiency variance = Standard rate * (Standard hours - Actual hours )
Standard hours:
= Standard labor-hours allowed per unit * Number of units produced in period
= 3 * 15,000
= 45,000 hours
Labor efficiency variance = 17 * (45,000 - 44,000)
= $17,000 Favorable
Favorable because the standard amount is higher than the actual amount.

Mike and Marianne pulled their resources together to open a coffee place. They each put $20,000 and also took a bank loan of $20,000. Interest rate the bank charges is 8% and estimated tax rate is 30% for their business. If they both want a 12% return on their investment, what is the weighted average cost of capital
Answer:
WACC= 9.8%
Explanation:
The weighted Average cost of Capital is the average cost of capital for the different sources of long-term capital available to a firm weighted according to the proportion each source of finance bears to the total capital in the pool.
After-tax cost of debt = (1- tax rate) × before tax cost of debt
= (1-0.3)× 8% = 5.6%
Total Equity = 20,000× 2= 40,000.
Bank loan = 20,000
Total value fund = 40,000 + 20,000 = 60,000
WACC= 5.5%× (2/6) + 12%× (4/6) = 9.8%
WACC= 9.8%
Consider two perfectly negatively correlated risky securities, A and B. Security A has an expected rate of return of 12% and a standard deviation of return of 17%. B has an expected rate of return of 9% and a standard deviation of return of 14%.
Required:
a. What are the weights of A and B in the global minimum variance portfolio respectively?
b. What is the rate of return on the risk-free portfolio that can be formed with the two securities ?
Answer:
A) Weight of Security A = 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B)Risk free rate = 10.35%
Explanation:
We are given;
A) Expected rate of return for Security A; ERR = 12%
Standard deviation of return for Security A; SD = 17%
Expected rate of return for Security B; ERR = 9%
Standard deviation of return for Security B; SD = 14%
Now, formula for weight of Security A is;
Weight of security A = SD of security B ÷ (SD of security B + SD of security A)
Weight of Security A = 14%/(14% + 17%)
Weight of Security A ≈ 0.45
Weight of Security B = 1 - weight of Security A
Weight of Security B = 1 - 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B) Formula for the risk free rate is;
Risk free rate = (weight of Security A × ERR of security A) + (weight of Security B × ERR of security B)
Risk free rate = (0.45 × 12%) + (0.55 × 9%)
Risk free rate = 10.35%

Explanation:
Bailey, Inc., is considering buying a new gang punch that would allow them to produce circuit boards more efficiently. The punch has a first cost of $100,000 and a useful life of 15 years. At the end of its useful life, the punch has no salvage value. Labor costs would increase $1,500 per year using the gang punch, but raw material costs would decrease $9,500 per year. MARR is 5%/year. Part a What is the internal rate of return of this investment
Answer: 2.37%
Explanation:
The cost of the investment is:
= $100,000
The yearly benefit of the investment is:
= Raw material decrease - Labor increase
= 9,500 - 1,500
= $8,000
Using Excel, you can calculate IRR in the manner shown in the attachment:
IRR = 2.37%
Harrington Corporation produces three products, A, B, and C. Pertinent information on these products is as follows: ProductSelling Price per UnitVariable Cost per UnitFixed Costper UnitDL Hoursper UnitA (Anchor bolts)$4.00 $1.00 $2.00 2 B (Bearings)$3.50 $0.50 $2.00 2 C (Castings)$6.00 $2.00 $3.00 3 There are 150 direct labor hours available. Machine-hour capacity allows 100 anchor bolts, only; 50 bearings, only; 40 casters, only; or any combination of the three that does not exceed the capacity. The direct labor hour constraint for Harrington's linear programming model is: ___________
Answer:
Labour hours constraint : 2a + 2b + 3c ≤ 150
Explanation:
Linear programming is a mathematical model that is used to solve a problem when a firm wants to maximize profit in the midst of multiple resource constraints.
The following steps should be followed:
Step 1: Define the variables
a= the units of product Anchor
b= the units of product Bearing
c= the units of product Casting
Step 2: Define the constraints:
The constraints represent the limitations which could be resource; in this case machine hours and direct labour hours. Since the constraint in focus is labour hours , so we only consider it.
Subject
Constraints: Labour hours : 2a + 2b + 3c ≤ 150
Non-negativity constraints a, b , c ≥ 0
Since the total available labour hours is 150 hours then the total consumption hours can either be equal to or less than 150, but can never be higher than 150.
The labour hours constraint is represented by 2a + 2b + 3c ≤ 150

The manufacturing overhead budget at Polich Corporation is based on budgeted direct labor-hours. The direct labor budget indicates that 7,400 direct labor-hours will be required in February. The variable overhead rate is $8.50 per direct labor-hour. The company's budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead is $108,780 per month, which includes depreciation of $18,080. All other fixed manufacturing overhead costs represent current cash flows.The company recomputes its predetermined overhead rate every month. The predetermined overhead rate for February should be:_____.
a. $193.690.
b. $211,850.
c. $112,940.
d. $80,750.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The computation of overhead rate for February is seen below
First, we need to determine the fixed manufacturing overhead per labor hour
Fixed manufacturing overhead per direct labor hour = Total manufacturing overhead ÷ Total direct labor hours
= $108,780 ÷ 7,400
= $14.7
Predetermined overhead rate = Variable overhead rate + Fixed manufacturing overhead rate
= $8.50 + $14.70
= $23.2 per direct labor hour
