At Jose's Bakersfield Espresso, Jose charges $3.50 for an average cup of espresso. If his fixed cost (salary, insurance, etc.) are $100,000 a year, and the variable cost for each cup of espresso are $1.25.

A) State the total fixed cost

B) State the variable cost

C)State the price

D) Given the available data, at what quantity will Jose's Bakersfield Espresso break even?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. $100,000

B. $1.25 per unit

C. $3.5 per unit

D. Break even point = 44,444 units

Explanation:

Break even point denotes that level of sales at which total costs equal or even total revenues.

Contribution represents the sales revenue in excess of variable costs to cover up for fixed costs.

Break even point in units = [tex]\frac{Fixed\ Cost}{Contribution\ per\ unit}[/tex]

Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution per unit = $3.50 - $1.25 = $2.25

Break even point = [tex]\frac{100,000}{2.25}[/tex] = 44,444 units approx.

You have $13,000 to invest in a stock portfolio. Your choices are Stock X with an expected return of 13 percent and Stock Y with an expected return of 8 percent. Assume your goal is to create a portfolio with an expected return of 11.45 percent. How much money will you invest in Stock X and Stock Y

Answers

Answer:

You should invest $8,970 in stock X and $4,030 in stock Y.

Explanation:

These can be estimated as follows:

PER = (ERX * wX) + (ERY * wY) ....................... (1)

Where,

PER = Portfolio expected return = 11.45%, or 0.1145

ERX = Expected return of X = 13%, or 0.13

ERY = Expected retun of Y = 8%, or 0.08

wX = Weight of X = ?

wY = Weight of Y = 1 - wX = ?

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

0.1145 = [0.13 * wX] + [0.08 * (1 - wX)]

0.1145 = 0.13wX + [0.08 - 0.08wX]

0.1145 = 0.13wX + 0.08 - 0.08wX

0.1145 - 0.08 = 0.13wX - 0.08wX

0.0345 = 0.05wX

wX = 0.0345 / 0.05

wX = 0.69

Since wY = 1 - wX

Therefore,

wY = 1 - 0.69

wY = 0.31

Total amount to invest = $13,000

Investment in stock X = Amount to invest * 0.69 = $13,000 * 0.69 = $8,970

Investment in stock Y = Amount to invest * 0.31 = $13,000 * 0.31 = $4.030

Therefore, you should invest $8,970 in stock X and $4,030 in stock Y.

Carlos opens a dry cleaning store during the year. He invests $30,000 of his own money and borrows $60,000 from a local bank. He uses $40,000 of the loan to buy a building and the remaining $20,000 for equipment. During the first year, the store has a loss of $24,000. How much of the loss can Carlos deduct if the loan from the bank is nonrecourse

Answers

Answer:

$30,000

$6,000

Explanation:

Carlos risk = $30,000

Carlos risk of $30,000 is the amount of funds which he had invested in the course of his business which is why Carlos is not considered at-risk for the nonrecourse loan reason been that carlos is not found liable because the loan was not used in the business which makes him to have a risk of $30,000.

$24,000 loss that occured will reduces Carlos’ amount at-risk to $6,000

($30,000 - $24,000)

=$6,000

company's perpetual preferred stock currently sells for $92.50 per share, and it pays an $8.00 annual dividend. If the company were to sell a new preferred issue, it would incur a flotation cost of 5.00% of the issue price. What is the firm's cost of preferred stock? Note: when flotation costs are given as a percentage instead of in dollar terms, the denominator in the formula changes from (P-F) to P*(1-F). Hint: remember that for preferred stock the growth rate of the dividend is zero.

Answers

Answer:

The firm's cost of preferred stock is  9.10%

Explanation:

The cost of preferred stock with the flotation of 5% would be the dividend payable by the preferred stock divided by the adjusted current market price(adjusted for flotation cost)

The dividend per year is $8

The adjusted price of the stock=$92.50*(1-f)

where f is the flotation cost in percentage terms i.e 5%

adjusted price of the stock is =$92.50*(1-5%)=$ 87.88  

Cost of preferred stock=$8/$87.88*100  = 9.10%

If Stan's parents elected to report Stan's income on his parents' return, what would the tax on Stan's income be?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $393

Explanation:

Solution

In this case, we will find the tax on Stan's income which is stated below:

Stan's adjusted gross income = 4500

The standardized deduction = 1050

The unearned taxable income = 3450

With ordinary rate, the less statutory deduction is = 1050

The taxable income that is subject to his parent's rate = 2400

The tax with ordinary rate = (1050 * 10%) =105

The Tax with parent's rate is = (2400 * 12%) = 288

Hence,

The tax on Stan's income would be = 105 + 288 = $393

A firm has fixed assets of $28,000, long-term debt of $12,000, current liabilities of $4,000, current assets of $5,000 and equity of $17,000. What is the total of the assets side of the balance sheet of the firm

Answers

Answer:

$33,000

Explanation:

assets = liabilities + stockholders' equity

assets include current assets + non current or fixed assets = $5,000 + $28,000 = $33,000

liabilities and stockholders' equity include current liabilities + long term liabilities + equity = $4,000 + $12,000 + $17,000 = $33,000

both sides of the accounting equation must always be equal, that is meant by balance.

Option A costs an initial $2 billion and will involve variable costs (labor and material) of $5 per bottle of spirits. Option B costs an initial $4 billion and will involve variable costs (labor and material) of $3 per bottle of spirits. Assuming an annual capital charge equal to 10 percent of the initial costs, what is the average fixed cost at production level of 20,000,000 bottles per year for the Option B facility

Answers

Answer: 20

Explanation:

Total cost of Option B = 4 billion

Total fixed cost = 10% of 4 billion

= 10/100 × 4,000,000,000

= 0.1 × 4,000,000,000

= 400,000,000

The average fixed cost is the total cost divided by the total number of output that is given. In this case, this can be calculated as:

= 400,000,000/20,000,000

= 20

The average fixed cost at production level of 20,000,000 bottles per year for the Option B facility will be 20.

an investment that in today's dollars returns 12% of your investment in year 1, 18% in year 2, 11% in year 3, and the remainder in year 4. Rounded to two places, what is the Duration of this investment

Answers

Answer:

3.17 years

Explanation:

We can calculate the duration of Investment by duration formula,

Duration= Sum of (PV of each cashflow x year)

PV of each cash flow can be understood as Dolar return % given in the Question.

                   Year1        Year2         Year3         Year4

           

Duration= (12% x 1) + (18% x 2) + (11% x 3) + (59% x 4)

Duration= 0.12 + 0.36 + 0.33 + 2.36

Duration= 3.17 years

Note: (100%-12%-18%-11%)59% can be calculated as the remainder of 100% after deducting each year's %.

Suppose that General Motors Acceptance Corporation issued a bond with 10 years until​ maturity, a face value of $ 1 comma 000​, and a coupon rate of 7.0 % ​(annual payments). The yield to maturity on this bond when it was issued was 6.0 %. What was the price of this bond when it was​ issued?

Answers

Answer:

$1,073.60

Explanation:

bond's current price = PV of face value + PV of coupons

maturity = 10 years

face value = $1,000

coupon rate = 7% annual

market rate = 6%

PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 6%)¹⁰ =$558.39

PV of coupons = coupon x annuity factor (10 years, 6%) = $70 x 7.3601 = $515.21

market value at issue date = $558.39 + $515.21 = $1,073.60

since the bond's coupon rate was higher than the market rate, the bond was sold at a premium.

Porter's Five Forces framework has been around since the 1980's and has been very effective in evaluating industry attractiveness. Changes in the dynamic nature of industries has not impacted the usefulness of the tool. The tool has no limitations. Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Porter's Five Forces framework is a list of factors which provide an explanation to the forces affecting competition in industries. These five forces include;

1. Competition in the industry

2. Potential of new entrants into the industry

3. Power of suppliers

4. Power of customers

5. Threat of substitute products

Over the years, these five forces have been used in explaining the structure of certain industries. The framework however has limitations, some of which include,

1. It is not in terms with current realities, such as new advancements in technology which were not available as at the time the framework was formed.

2.  Some companies operate different structures, whereas, the framework classifies each industry under one structure.

3. There is the possibility of industries to give equal consideration to all five factors, whereas in reality only some of the factors might be applicable to them.

4. Individual companies instead of industries now use the framework to make their business analysis which is not the real reason for the development of the framework. It was meant for industries as a whole.

Consider a country where all money is currently held as cash and the money supply has a value of $2,200. A banking system is developed, and the residents of the country deposlt the $2,200 of cash into the banking system and decide they no longer want to hold any cash. If the reserve ratio is equal to 4%, then the banking system has the ability to create $_________ money supply in the economy will be equal to $__________

Answers

Answer: the banking system has the ability to create $52,800 of new money and the money supply in the economy will be equal to $55,000

Explanation:

To find out how much new money was created or rather how much can be created you can use the Money Multiplier. The money multiplier enables one to see how much money can be created in an economy given a certain reserve ratio.

The Money Multiplier is calculated by,

= 1/reserve requirement

Multiplying the Money Multiplier with the initial deposit in the bank gives the amount that that deposit can create.

With a Reserve Requirement of 4%, the Money Multiplier is,

= 1/4%

= 25

The Amount of money created in the economy is therefore,

= 25 * 2,200

= $55,000

The amount of New Money created will be the amount created less the initial deposit,

= 55,000 - 2,200

= $52,800

Net profit from operations                                      $2,000,000

(b) Did you need to prepare a supporting statement of cost of goods manufactured? Explain.

No, since the COGS were fairly simple (no beginning or ending inventory) you can just squeeze the information.

3. Suppose 200,000 tents were produced (and 200,000 sold) but that the company had a beginning finished goods inventory of 10,000 tents produced in the prior year at $40 per unit. The company follows a first-in, first-out policy for its inventory (meaning that the units produced first are sold first for purposes of cost flow). (a) What effect does this have on the income statement?

Both gross profit and net profit would increase since COGS would be lower: COGS = (10,000 x $40) + (190,000 x $46) = $9,140,000, which is $60,000 less.

(b) Prepare a cost of goods sold statement.

Incurred costs:

Direct materials                                                            $3,600,000

Direct labor                                                                   $2,400,000

Manufacturing overhead                                             $3,200,000

Cost of goods manufactured                                      $9,200,000

Beginning inventory of finished units                            $400,000

Ending inventory of finished units                                ($460,000)

Cost of goods sold                                                       $9,140,000

Explanation:

revenue = 200,000 x $60 = $12,000,000

manufacturing costs:

Direct materials $18 x 200,000 = $3,600,000Direct labor $12 x 200,000 = $2,400,000Manufacturing overhead $16 x 200,000 = $3,200,000total = $9,200,000

product cost per unit = $18 + $12 + $16 = $46

S&A expenses:

sales commission of $2 x 200,000 = $400,000advertising totaling $100,000administrative expenses $300,000total $800,000

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

B. What are the company policies when it comes to handling bribery?

This is a good question to ask because it aims to find out how the company deals with a very important ethical issue which is that of bribery. Your supervisor needs to tell you how the company normally deals with bribery so that you can act appropriately and abide by the ethics of the company.

B. Inform the executive that this extra $10,000 wasn’t in the original contract. Avoid assuming unethical behavior until you clarify what he is asking for in relation to the agreed-upon contract.

You should tell the Executive that the sum of money he is requesting for was not in the original budget and inquire to know why he needs it so that you may know if it is something you can acquire. It is sometimes best to wait for an explanation first before rushing to conclusions and this is one of those times.

A. Find alternatives.

B. Don’t rationalize shady decisions.

D. Refuse business if it violates you basic values.

When dealing with other culture and you see that there are different values from the ones you are used to and therefore different ways of doing things, it is imperative that you find alternatives to your course if action that can still serve your purpose while not antagonizing the people.

Also very important to to avoid rationalizing shady deals because once you start you will find that UNETHICAL decisions are easy to engage in.

Also as much as you are in a different cultures, some behaviours will always be unethical, refusing business that violates your basic values shoeshowss Moral Initiative.

A. Team members with different backgrounds come up with more effective problem-solving techniques, providing your company with a competitive advantage over other companies.

As the saying goes, "two heads are better than one". This is very important in teams with diversity because different cultures and backgrounds have evolved differently and found out different ways to come up with solutions to problems with some being better than others. Having team members from various backgrounds brings that information together to chart a better path forward which can then give a Competitive Advantage.

Build on Similarities. Coexist Peacefully.

By posting this tip, you encourage team members to communicate well with each other by first finding similarities. Human beings regardless of culture can have similarities and from these we can see that we are not all that different. Once that is found out, it is easier to coexist peacefully.

A rich donor gives a hospital $ 960 comma 000 one year from today. Each year after​ that, the hospital will receive a payment 5 ​% larger than the previous​ payment, with the last payment occurring in ten​ years' time. What is the present value​ (PV) of this​ donation, given that the interest rate is 9 ​%?

Answers

Answer:

$7,560,000

Explanation:

To solve this problem, the Present Value (PV) of a growing annuity formula is used.

The Present Value of a growing annuity is the current value of a series of payments which grows or diminishes at a constant rate each period.

The formula below represents the PV of a growing annuity:

[tex]PV=PMT *\frac{(1-(1+g)^{n}*(1+i)^{-n}) }{i-g}[/tex],  ............................................. (i)

where,

PV = Present Value = ?

PMT = Periodic Payment = $960,000

i = Interest Rate = 9% = 0.09

g = Growth Rate = 5% = 0.05

n = Number of periods = 10 years

Substituting these values in equation (i), we have

[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-(1+0.05)^{10}*(1+0.09)^{-10} }{0.09-0.05}[/tex]

[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-(1.05^{10})*(1.09)^{-10}) }{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-(1.63*0.42))}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]PV=960000*\frac{(1-0.685)}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]PV=960000*\frac{0.315}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]PV=960000*7.875[/tex]

[tex]PV=$7,560,000[/tex]

PV = $7,560,000

On the basis of this​ information, find the annual holding period returns for 2012 through 2016. ​


Answers

Answer:

The annual holding period returns for 2012 through 2016 is 199.21%

Explanation:

In order to Calcualte the Holding Period Return for 2012 through 2016

we would have to use and calculate the following formula :

HPR = [(P1-P0) +D] / P0

P0 = Beginning value of stock = $39.26

P1 = The closing value of stock = $111.07

D = Dividends received during the year =($0.75 + $0.99 + $0.96 + $1.65 + $2.05) = $6.40

Substituting all the values in the formula , we will get Holding period return

HPR = [($111.07 - $39.26) + $6.40] / $39.26

= $78.21/ $39.26

= 1.9921

= 199.21%

Therefore, the annual holding period returns for 2012 through 2016 is 199.21%

What amount of these payments, if any, can Ajax deduct this year

Answers

Answer: No deduction can be claimed this year.

Explanation:

The options to the question are:

a. No deduction can be claimed this year.

b. $5.50 million

c. $2,500,000

d. $5.50 million only if the professional golf tournament is played before April 15.

Answer:

Since Ajax Computer company is an accrual method calender-year tax payer, the computer company would recognize the expenses only when such expenses are incurred and not at the time that cash is being paid for the the expenses

Ajax computer company already paid in advance for both advertisements the following year even though the advertisement eanst taking place that year. Therefore, the payments will not be considered to be an expense until advertisements has actually taken place. Because of this, Ajax cannot deduct the amounts paid for the advertisements next year and hence, no deduction will be claimed this year.

City Auto Parts recently traded in store fixtures. The exchange had commercial substance. The old fixtures had a cost of $48,000 and accumulated depreciation of $14,000. City paid $101,000 for the new store fixtures. These new fixtures had a market value of $117,000. There is a loss of $18,000 on this exchange.True or False

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is true

Expected cash=$117,000-$34,000=$83,000.00  

Loss on the exchange =cash paid -expected cash payable=$101,000-$83,000=$18000
