Calisto Launch Services is an independent space corporation and has been contracted to develop and launch one of two different satellites. Initial equipment will cost $750,000 for the first satellite and $850,000 for the second. Development will take 5 years at an expected cost of $150,000 per year for the first satellite; $120,000 per year for the second. The same launch vehicle can be used for either satellite and will cost $275,000 at the time of the launch 5 years from now. At the conclusion of the launch, the contracting company will pay Calisto $2,500,000 for either satellite. Calisto is also considering whether they should consider launching both satellites. Because Calisto would have to upgrade its facilities to handle two concurrent projects, the initial costs would rise by $150,000 in addition to the first costs of each satellite. Calisto would need to hire additional engineers and workers, raising the yearly costs to a total of $400,000. An additional compartment would be added to the launch vehicle at an additional cost of $75,000. As an incentive to do both, the contracting company will pay for both launches plus a bonus of $1,000,000. Using a present worth analysis with a MARR of 10 percent/year, what should Calisto Launch Services do?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The three different alternatives have positive NPVs. The alternative with the highest NPV is alternative 3, to develop and launch both satellites (NPV = $241,891). This alternative also has the highest IRR (12.1%). So Calisto should work on both satellites.

launch vehicle cost year 5                        $275,000

if 2 satellites developed                             $75,000

revenue from launching             $2,500,000    $2,500,000

bonus for launching both                      $1,000,000

MARR = 10%

since there is not enough room here, I used an excel spreadsheet to calculate NPVs of launching satellite 1, satellite 2 or both.

Causwell Company began 2018 with 11,000 units of inventory on hand. The cost of each unit was $4.00. During 2018 an additional 35,000 units were purchased at a single unit cost, and 21,000 units remained on hand at the end of 2018 (25,000 units therefore were sold during 2018). Causwell uses a periodic inventory system. Cost of goods sold for 2018, applying the average cost method, is $108,750. The company is interested in determining what cost of goods sold would have been if the FIFO or LIFO methods were used. Required: 1. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the FIFO method. [Hint: Determine the cost per unit of 2018 purchases.] 2. Determine the cost of goods sold for 2018 using the LIFO method.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

For computing the cost of goods sold under two method first we have to determine the cost per unit which is shown below:

The average cost per unit is

= $108,750 ÷ 25,000 units

= $4.35

Now the cost per unit is

Total cost (11,000 units + 35,000 units) × $4.35   $200,100

Beginning units (11,000 units × $4) $44,000

The Remaining cost for 35000 units ($200,100 - $44,000)  $156,100

Divide by  Purchase cost per unit of 35000 units   $4.46

Now the cost of goods sold are as follows

1. Under the FIFO method

Beginning        11,000 × $4.00  $44,000  

Purchased        14,000 × $4.46  $62,440  

Total         25,000           $1,06,440

2. Under the LIFO method

Purchased        25,000 × $4.46  $1,11,500

Homeowners enjoy many benefits, including a federal tax deduction for state and local property taxes paid. Fishers, Indiana, was voted one of the top 100 best places to live in 2017 by Money magazine.

= $236,167 × (10.6 ÷ 1000)

= $236,167 × 0.0106

=$2,503.37

Answer:

An example of the resource-based view of the firm is:

d. Canon manufactures scanners, printers, copiers and cameras, all using its capability in imaging.

Explanation:

The resource-based view is a model or framework for examining the potentials an organization possesses to develop a competitive advantage over other competitors.  By applying this model, management sees resources as key to superior firm performance.  It therefore focuses its attention on internal resources in an effort to identify those assets, capabilities, and competencies with the potential to deliver superior competitive advantages.

The other approaches mentioned do not consider the firm's internal capabilities as a means of competitive advantage.

If you use decimal places, then go four places to the right of the decimal place. 0.XXXX). 0.1613

Answers

Answer:

What is the nominal annual percentage cost of its non-free trade credit, based on a 365-day year? The firm's APR of not taking the trade credit is 0.1613.

Explanation:

The nominal cost of its non-free trade credit = the discounts lost for paying late.

In this case, the seller offers a 3% discount if the firm pays within 15 days.

annual financial cost = [discount / (100% - discount)] x [365 / (repayment time - discount period)]

annual financial cost = [3% / (100% - 3%)] x [365 / (85 - 15)] = (3% / 97%) x (365 / 70) = 0.1613 or 16.13%

Shulman Inc. has the following data, in thousands. Assuming a 365-day year, what is the firm's cash conversion cycle? Annual sales = $45,000 Annual cost of goods sold = $30,000 Inventory = $4,500 Accounts receivable = $1,800 Accounts payable = $2,500

Answers

Answer:

38.93

Explanation:

Firm Cash Conversion Cycle = Inventory Conversion Period + Average Collection Period  - Payable Deferral Period

Inventory Conversion Period =  365 * Inventory / Annual cost of goods sold

365 days * 4500 / 30000 = 54.75

Average Collection Period = 365 days * Account receivable /  sales

= 365 * 1800 / 45000 = 14.60

Payable Deferral Period = 365 days * Account payable /  sales =  365 * 2500 / 30000 = 30.42

Hence, Firm Cash Conversion Cycle = 54.75 + 14.60 - 30.42 = 38.93

The firm Cash Conversion Cycle is 38.93

Answer:

What is the expected dividend yield for Portman's stock today?

d. 6.40%

Suppose Portman is considering issuing 62,500 new shares at a price of $26.78 per share. If the new shares are sold to outside investors, by how much will Judy's investment in Portman Industries be diluted on a per-share basis?

a. $0.52 per share

Thus, Judy's investment will be diluted, and Judy will experience a total loss of $0.52 x 7,500 = $3,900

Explanation:

cost of equity = Re = risk free rate of return + (Beta × market premium) = 5% + (0.90 x 6%) = 10.4%

dividend in one year = $1.68 x 120% = $2.016

intrinsic stock price = $2.016 / (10.4% - 4%) = $31.50

expected dividend yield = dividend / stock price = $2.016 / $31.50 = 6.4%

Judy's loss per share = ($31.50 - $26.78) x (62,500 / 562,500) = $0.5244

A repetitive focus plant has fixed costs of $50,000 and variable costs of $1 per unit.a. At what output does the large intermittent process become cheaper than the small one?b. At what output does the repetitive process become cheaper than the larger intermittent process?

Answers

Answer:

A.$1,125

B.$38,000

Explanation:

Using this formula:

Fixed Cost of Process B- Fixed Cost of Process A ÷Unit Variable cost of Process A – Unit Variable Cost of Process B

a.

Where:

Fixed Cost =$12,000

Fixed Cost =$3,000

Unit Variable =10

Unit Variable =2

Hence:

(12,000-3,000)/ (10-2)

=$9,000/8

= $1,125

This means that large intermittent process become cheaper than the small one by $1,125

b.

Fixed Cost =$50,000

Fixed Cost =$12,000

Unit Variable =2

Unit Variable =1

(50,000-12,000)/ (2-1)

=$38,000/1

= 38,000

This means that repetitive process become cheaper than the larger intermittent process by $38,000

On January 1, Year 1, the Accounts Receivable balance was $21,000 and the balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts was $1,900. On January 15, Year 1, an $530 uncollectible account was written-off. What is the net realizable value of accounts receivable immediately after the write-off

Answers

Answer:

$19,100

Explanation:

Accounts receivable represents amount owed to a business by its customers for products or services offered. It is payable in the future.

When collection is uncertain the amount is put in doubtful account.

If an amount is confirmed to be uncollectible it is written off as a loss

In this scenario we are calculating realisable value after write-off

Account receivable after write-off = Account receivable balance - Uncollectible amount

Account receivable after write-off= 21,000 - 530= $20,470

Allowance balance after write-off= Doubtful account - Uncollectible account

Allowance balance after write-off= 1,900 - 530 = $1,370

Net realisable value after write-off= 20,470 - 1,370= $19,100

Answers

Answer:

$91,900

Explanation:

The computation of net sales revenue is shown below:-

Here, for reaching the net sales revenue we add the sales revenue and deduct the sales return and allowances with sales discounts

Net sales revenue = Sales Revenue - Sales Returns and Allowances - Sales Discounts

= $95,000 - $1,000 - $2,100

= $91,900

Therefore we have applied the above formula.

Answers

Answer:

1. Journalize the entry to record the amount of cash proceeds from the issuance of the bonds on July 1, Year 1.

Dr Cash 37,282,062

Dr Discount on bonds payable 2,717,938

    Cr Bonds payable 40,000,000

2. Journalize the entries to record the following:*A. The first semiannual interest payment on December 31, Year 1, and the amortization of the bond discount, using the straight-line method.

Dr Interest expense 1,535,897

    Cr Cash 1,400,000

    Cr Discount on bonds payable 135,897

B. The interest payment on June 30, Year 2, and the amortization of the bond discount, using the straight-line method.

Dr Interest expense 1,535,897

    Cr Cash 1,400,000

    Cr Discount on bonds payable 135,897

3. Determine the total interest expense for Year 1.

Interest expense 1,535,897

4. Will the bond proceeds always be less than the face amount of the bonds when the contract rate is less than the market rate of interest?

Yes, when the bond's interest rate is lower than the market rate, the bonds will be sold at a discount (less than face value). The market rate applicable to this bond issuance is the one used for similar bonds, so the market rate can change depending on the bond.

5. Compute the price of $37,282,062 received for the bonds by using the present value tables

the value of the bonds = PV of face value + PV of coupons

PV of face value = $40,000,000 / (1 + 4%)²⁰ = $18,255,478PV of annuity = $1,400,000 x PV annuity 4% for 20 periods = $1,400,000 x 13.59033 = $19,026,462

total value = $18,255,478 + $19,026,462 = $37,281,940

There is a small difference, $122, due to rounding errors from the annuity table. But the error is not significant, it represents only 0.0003% of the bonds' price.

Explanation:

issued $40,000,000 of 10-year, 7% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 8%, receiving cash of $37,282,062

coupon payment = $40,000,000 x 7% x 1/2 = $1,400,000

semiannual coupon paid December 31 and June 30

Discount on bonds payable $2,717,938 / 20 coupons = $135,896.90 ≈ $135,897 per coupon payment

Changes in reserve requirements to conduct monetary policy is generally not a good idea for the United States because:
A)it requires approval of Congress and this can take too long.
B)it takes a long time to work whereas other tools are much quicker.
C)this tool is powerful and makes it difficult for bank managers to plan for the future and manage funds as they like.
D)the United States is too large of a country to use this tool.

Answers

Answer: this tool is powerful and makes it difficult for bank managers to plan for the future and manage funds as they like.

Explanation:

Reserve requirements are the amount of money that a bank holds in its reserve to ensure that it can meet liabilities in the case of sudden withdrawals. The reserve requirement is a tool that is used by the central bank of a country to either increase or decrease the money supply in the economy and also influence interest rates.

The changes in reserve requirements to conduct monetary policy is not a good idea for the United States because it is a powerful tool which makes it hard for bank managers to make future plans and manage funds as they want. In a situation whereby small variation in the reserve ratio brings about huge changes in an economy, the changes are positive and okay but in a situation whereby they bring about negative effect, it will be hard to face such scenarios.

Suppose that the government spending multiplier is 3.2 and the tax multiplier is 2.9. This means that, if prices are constant, a $200 billion rise in government spending will __________________, and a $200 billion cut in taxes will _____________________.

Answers

Answer:

At constant prices, a $200 billion rise in government spending will increase Real GDP by 640 billion

and;

A $200 billion cut in taxes will increase real GDP by 580 billion

Explanation:

Government spending multiplier = 3.2

Tax multiplier = 2.9

Mathematically;

ΔY/ΔG = 3.2

ΔY/200 = 3.2

ΔY = 200 * 3.2

ΔY = 640 billion

Cut in taxes;

Tax multiplier = 2.9

ΔY/ΔT = 2.9

ΔY/200 = 2.9

ΔY = 2.9 * 200

ΔY = 580 billion

In March of 2019, Thomas makes a $5,000 cash contribution to a public university. In that month, he also donates $20,000 to an organization subject to the 30 percent limitation. Thomas has adjusted gross income for 2019 of $30,000. What is the amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction?

Answers

Answer:

The amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction is $14,000

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction we would have to calculate the following:

amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction =Cash contribution + [30% of adjusted gross income or actual property ,whichever is lower]

amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction = $5,000+ [(30%* $30,000) or $20,000 ,whichever is lower]

amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction =$5,000 [ $9,000 or $20,000]

amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction= $5,000 + $9,000

amount of Thomas's 2019 charitable contribution deduction= $14,000
