Last year Rennie Industries had sales of $270,000, assets of $175,000 (which equals total invested capital), a profit margin of 5.3%, and an equity multiplier of 1.2. The CFO believes that the company could reduce its assets by $51,000 without affecting either sales or costs. The firm finances using only debt and common equity. Had it reduced its assets by this amount, and had the debt/total invested capital ratio, sales, and costs remained constant, how much would the ROE have changed? Do not round your intermediate calculations. a. 3.03% b. 3.07% c. 4.04% d. 4.52% e. 4.08%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c. 4.04%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine how much would the ROE have changed

First step is to Calculate last year Last year profit

Last year profit = $270,000 × 5.3%

Last year profit = $14,310.00

Second step is to calculate Last year equity

$175,000/Last year equity = 1.2

Last year equity = $175,000/1.2

Last year equity= $145,833.33

Third step is to calculate Last year ROE

Last year ROE = $14,310.00/$145,833.33

Last year ROE= 0.0981*100

Last year ROE= 9.81%

Fourth step is to Calculate New asset value

New asset value = $175,000 - $51,000

New asset value = $124,000

Fifth step is to calculate Equity after asset reduction

Equity after asset reduction = $124,000/1.2

Equity after asset reduction = $103,333.33

Sixth step is to calculate ROE after asset reduction

ROE after asset reduction = $14,310.00/$103,333.33

ROE after asset reduction =0.1385*100

ROE after asset reduction =13.85%

Now let calculate amount of change in ROE

Using this formula

Change in ROE = ROE after asset reduction - Last year ROE

Let plug in the formula

Change in ROE = 13.85% - 9.81%

Change in ROE = 4.04%

Therefore how much would the ROE have changed is 4.04%

Answers

Answer:

Total value of the investment= $57,320.73

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the future value of the first part of the investment. We will calculate the future value for the monthly deposit for five years and then the lump sum for another five years.

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

i= 0.04/12= 0.003333

n= 5*12= 60 months

FV= {322*[(1.003333^60) - 1]} / 0.003333

FV= $21,348.05

For the lump sum:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

n= 12*5= 60

i= 0.05/12= 0.004167

FV= 21,348.05*(1.004167^60)

FV= $27,397.75

Now, the future value of the second part of the investment:

n= 60

i= 0.0041667

A= 440

FV= {440*[(1.004167^60) - 1]} / 0.004167

FV= $29,922.98

Total value of the investment= 27,397.75 + 29,922.98

Total value of the investment= $57,320.73

She brought the sushi back the next day and was given a full refund with no questions asked. Evidence indicates that successful handling of product and service failures as in Emilia's situation leads to _______.

Answers

Answer:

higher levels of customer loyalty.

Explanation:

CRM is an acronym for customer relationship management and it typically involves the process of combining strategies, techniques, practices and technology so as to effectively and efficiently manage their customer data in order to improve and enhance customer satisfaction. Therefore, this employees are saddled with the responsibility of ensuring the customer are satisfied and happy with their service at all times.

CRM means collecting information about the customer for the purpose of improving their future experience.

In this scenario, Emilia bought some Japanese sushi at the grocery store for $14. When she got it home and served it to her family, it tasted rancid. She brought the sushi back the next day and was given a full refund with no questions asked.

This evidence indicates that successful handling of product and service failures as in Emilia's situation leads to higher levels of customer loyalty and as such they would stick to patronizing the business firm or service provider.

This ultimately implies that, in order to gain loyalty from your customers, it is very important and necessary that you treat them right, listen to their complaints, and resolve any business related issue because customers are always right.

Parking lot staff budget Adventure Park is a large theme park. Staffing for the theme park involves many different labor classifications, one of which is the parking lot staff. The parking lot staff collects parking fees, provides directions, and operates trams. The staff size is a function of the number of daily vehicles. Adventure Park has determined from historical experience that a staff member is needed for every 200 vehicles. Adventure Park estimates staff for both school days and nonschool days. Nonschool days are higher attendance days than school days. The number of expected vehicles for each day is as follows:

School Days Nonschool Days
Number of vehicles per day 3,000 8,000
Number of days per year 165 200

Parking fees are $10 per vehicle. Each parking lot employee is paid $110 per day.

Required:
a. Determine the annual parking lot staff budget for school days, nonschool days, and total.
b. Determine the parking revenue for school days, nonschool days, and total.
c. If depreciation expense and other expenses for running the parking lot were estimated to be $2 million per year, determine the parking lot's budgeted profit.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

a. Determine the annual parking lot staff budget for school days, nonschool days, and total.

For school days:

Number of staff required per day = 3000/20 = 15

Number of staff days per year = 15 × 165 = 2475

Annual parking lot staff budget = 2475 × $110 = $272250

For non school days:

Number of staff required per day = 8000/20 = 40

Number of staff days per year = 40 × 200 = 8000

Annual parking lot staff budget = 800 × $110 = $880,000

Total annual parking lot staff budget = $272250 + $880000 = $1152250

b. Determine the parking revenue for school days, nonschool days, and total.

For school days:

Total number of vehicles per year = 3000 × 165 = 495000

Parking revenue = 495000 × $10 = $4950000

For non school days:

Total number of vehicles per year = 8000 × 200 = 1600000

Parking revenue = 1600000 × $10 = $16000000

Total parking revenue = $4950000 + $16000000 = $20950000

c. If depreciation expense and other expenses for running the parking lot were estimated to be $2 million per year, determine the parking lot's budgeted profit.

Parking revenue = $20,950,000

Less: Parking lot staff payroll = $1152250

Less: Depreciation and other expenses = $2000000

Budgeted profit = $177977500

Production costs chargeable to the Finishing Department in May at Kim Company are materials $7,700, labor $19,700, overhead $18,289, and transferred-in costs $66,801. Equivalent units of production are materials 20,300 and conversion costs 18,900. Kim uses the FIFO method to compute equivalent units. Compute the unit costs for materials and conversion costs. Transferred-in costs are considered materials costs. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.25.) Materials cost per unit $ 5.54 Conversion cost per unit $

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the unit cost for material and conversion cost is shown below:

Material Cost per Unit is

= Total Material Cost ÷  Equivalent Units for Materials

,= ($7,700 +  $66,801) ÷ (20,300 units)

= $3.67 per unit

And, the conversion cost per unit is

= (labor cost + overhead cost) ÷ equivalent units for conversion

= ($19,700 + $18,289) ÷ 18,900 units

= $2.01 per unit

You won the lottery when the jackpot was $3,300,000 (annual payments of $165,000 paid for 20 years). Your choice is to take the annual payments for 20 years or take the lump sum payout today. The lottery administration uses a 4% interest rate. What is the value of the lump sum payout

Answers

Answer:

Lump sum= $2,242,403.85

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the future value of the annual payments using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual payment

FV= {165,000*[(1.04^20) - 1]} / 0.04

FV= $4,913,382.97

Now, the lump sum is the present value of the annual payments:

PV= FV / (1 + i)^n

PV= 4,913,382.97 / (1.04^20)

PV= $2,242,403.85

In part b, enter your answers as whole numbers. a. By how much would government spending have to rise to shift the aggregate demand curve rightward by $25 billion

Answers

Answer: $5 billion

Explanation:

First find the spending multiplier which is a multiplier that shows how Aggregate demand increases as a result of additional spending.

Multiplier = 1 / (1 - Marginal propensity to consume)

= 1 / ( 1 - 0.8)

= 5

If the government wants to raise Aggregate demand by $25 billion, they should spend:

Increase in AD = Amount * Multiplier

25 billion = Amount * 5

Amount = 25 / 5

= $5 billion

The manager of the Quick Stop Corner convenience store (which is open 360 days per year) sells four cases of Stein soda each day (1440 cases per year). Order costs are $8.00 per order. The lead time for an order is three days. Annual holding costs are equal to $57.60 per case. If the manager orders 16 cases each time she places an order, how many orders would she place in a year

Answers

Answer:

90 orders she would place in a year

Explanation:

The total annual cases of Stein soda that the manager buys are 1,440 cases. If she were to place 16 cases in a single order then we would divide the total  cases bought in a year by the cases bought in a single order to determine the number of orders the manager would place in a year. As shown below:

No. of orders placed in a year = Annual Total Cases bought / Cases purchased in single order

No. of orders placed in a year = 1,440 / 16

No. of orders placed in a year = 90 orders

Agee Storage issued 33 million shares of its $1 par common stock at $21 per share several years ago. Last year, for the first time, Agee reacquired 1 million shares at $19 per share. Assuming that Agee retires shares it reacquires (restores their status to that of authorized but unissued shares), by what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline if it now reacquires 1 million shares at $24 per share?

Answers

Answer:

$23 million

Explanation:

Calculation to determine at what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline

First step is to calculate the Cash paid for the first repurchase

Cash paid for the first repurchase = 1 million * 19

Cash paid for the first repurchase = $19 million

Second step is to calculate the Value of first purchase

Value of first purchase = 1 million * 21

Value of first purchase = $21 million

Third step is to calculate the Benefit on first repurchase

Benefit on first repurchase = 21 million - 19 million

Benefit on first repurchase = $2 million

Fourth step is to calculate Cash paid for second repurchase

Cash paid for second repurchase = 1 million * 24

Cash paid for second repurchase = $24 million

Fifth step is to calculate the Value of second purchase = Reacquired shares * Common stock price

Value of second purchase = 1 million * 21

Value of second purchase = $21 million

Last step is to calculate the Decline in total paid-in capital using this formula

Decline in total paid-in capital= Benefit on first repurchase + Value of second purchase

Decline in total paid-in capital = 2 million + 21 million

Decline in total paid-in capital = $23 million

Therefore what amount will Agee’s total paid-in capital decline is $23 million

Accounts Randall Company estimates its bad debts expense by aging its accounts receivable and applying percentages to various age groups of the accounts. Randall calculated a total of $3,000 in possible credit losses as of December 31. Accounts Receivable has a balance of $128,000, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a credit balance of $500 before adjustment at December 31. What is the December 31 adjusting entry to provide for credit losses

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entry will be:

Debit: Bad debt expense $2500

Credit: Allowance for doubtful $2500

Then, we will calculate the net amount of account receivable that should be included in current assets which will be:

Account receivable = $128000

Less: Allowance for doubtful = $500 + $2500 = $3000

Net amount of account receivable = $125000

Answers

Answer:

The Current account is for goods and services.

The Financial account is for exchange of currencies and financial assets across countries.

Miguel, a U.S. resident, buys an HDTV set for  $2,500 and sends it to Mexico as a gift to his parents. DEBIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. CREDIT CURRENT ACCOUNT.

Miguel buys the good in the U.S. and then sends it so this falls under the current account alone.

Arielle, a French tourist, stays at a hotel in San  Francisco and pays $400 for it with her debit  card issued by a French bank. DEBIT FINANCIAL ACCOUNT. CREDIT CURRENT ACCOUNT.

The Financial account should be debited to show that currency is coming into the U.S. from outside the country and current account should be credited for services rendered.

A U.S. computer manufacturer purchases hard  drives from a Korean company, paying the funds  from its bank account in Korea. DEBIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. CREDIT FINANCIAL ACCOUNT.

Current account should be debited to reflect that goods are coming into the country but the financial account should be credited to show that currency is leaving the ownership of an American entity so it is passing out of American hands.

During lunch time, customers arrive at a postal office at a rate of lambda equals 36 per hour. The interarrival time of the arrival process can be approximated with an exponential distribution. Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of mu equals 45 per hour. The service time for the customers can also be approximated with an exponential distribution. For each of the following questions, show your work and use the right notation.

Required:
Determine the utilization factor.

Answers

Answer:

the utilization factor is 4 ÷ 5

Explanation:

The computation of the utilization factor is shown below:

given that

Customer arrives at the rate of λ equivalent to the 36  per hour

And, Customers can be served by the postal office at a rate of μ equivalent to the  45 per hour

λ = 36 / hour

μ = 45 / hour

Now utilization factor is

P = λ ÷ μ

= 36 ÷ 45

= 4 ÷ 5

Thus, the utilization factor is 4 ÷ 5

the total fixed expense for the year is $145,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total fixed expense for the year is shown below:

= (Store east fixed expense + store west fixed expense) + ((contribution margin - store east fixed expense) + net operating income - segment margin)

= ($60,000 + $40,000) + (($100,000 - $60,000) + $50,000 - $45,000

= $145,000

hence, the total fixed expense for the year is $145,000

Answer:

A. engage in price discrimination by charging business travelers and leisure travelers different prices.

Explanation:

Yes, airlines practice price discrimination. They engage in price discrimination by charging business travelers and leisure travelers different prices for the same distance travelled.

Price can be defined as the amount of money that is required to be paid by a buyer (customer) to a seller (producer) in order to acquire goods and services.

In sales and marketing, pricing of products is considered to be an essential element of a business firm's marketing mix because place, promotion and product largely depends on it.

Price discrimination refers to the situation in which a business firm sells an identical product to different consumers at different selling price based on reasons that are not in any way associated or related with its manufacturing cost.
