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: ___________

Answers

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

In previous years, Cox Transport reacquired 2 million treasury shares at $24 per share and, later, 1 million treasury shares at $27 per share. If Cox now sells 2 million treasury shares at $29 per share and determines cost as the weighted-average cost of treasury shares, by what amount will Cox’s paid-in capital - share repurchase increase?

Answers

Answer:

the increase in the paid in capital is $4 million  

Explanation:

The computation of increase in paid in capital is shown below:

The weighted ratio is 2:1 i.e. 66.67%, 33.33%

Now weighted average price is

= (0.6667 × $24) +  (0.3333 × $27)

= $25

Now the increase in paid in capital is

= ($29 - $25) × 1 million

= $4 million

Hence, the increase in the paid in capital is $4 million  

This year Randy paid $28,900 of interest on his residence. (Randy borrowed $462,000 to buy his residence, and it is currently worth $512,000.) Randy also paid $2,800 of interest on his car loan and $4,650 of margin interest to his stockbroker (investment interest expense). How much of this interest expense can Randy deduct as an itemized deduction under the following circumstances

Answers

Answer:

a. Interest Deductible = $31,100

b. Interest Deductible = $28,900

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

This year Randy paid $28,900 of interest on his residence. (Randy borrowed $462,000 to buy his residence, and it is currently worth $512,000.) Randy also paid $2,800 of interest on his car loan and $4,650 of margin interest to his stockbroker (investment interest expense). How much of this interest expense can Randy deduct as an itemized deduction under the following circumstances?

a. Randy received $2,200 of interest this year and no other investment income or expenses. His AGI is $75,000.

Interest Deductible $.......

b. Randy had no investment income this year, and his AGI is $75,000.

Interest Deducttible $.......

The explanation of the anwer is now given as follows:

a. Randy received $2,200 of interest this year and no other investment income or expenses. His AGI is $75,000.

Randy may choose to deduct the interest of $28,900 on his residence as an itemized deduction.

The $2,800 of interest on his car loan is a nondeductible personal interest.

The $2,200 interest income received can be regarded as an investment income.

The $4,500 margin interest to his stockbroke is likely investment interest. But since Randy has only $2,200 interest income, his deduction is limited to the $2,200.

Therefore, we have:

Interest Deductible = Interest on his residence + $2,200 = $28,900 + $2,200 = $31,100

b. Randy had no investment income this year, and his AGI is $75,000.

Since there is no investment income, Randy can only dedcut the interest of $28,900 on his residence based on the explanation in part a above.

Therefore, we have:

Interest Deductible = $28,900

Suppose that Nevada Co., a US-based MNC, makes regular, monthly purchases of materials from a German supplier named Spicurity. These regular payments are typically in the amount of 300,000 euros. Last month the exchange rate was $1.93 per euro. Nevada Co. only has cash reserves in dollars, while Spicurity only has cash reserves in euros. Suppose both companies use the same bank.
In order to conduct this transaction last month, Nevada Co.
Required:
a. $_____ to pay for the materials. Thus, the bank handling the transaction reduced Nevada’s account by this amount, denominated in
b. __________( euros OR dollars). The bank then converted this amount to c. ___________ d. ________________( euros OR dollars). and credited it to Spicurity’s account.

Answers

Answer:

In order to conduct this transaction last month, Nevada Co.

Required:

a. $_579,000____ to pay for the materials. Thus, the bank handling the transaction reduced Nevada’s account by this amount, denominated in

b. __dollars___( euros OR dollars). The bank then converted this amount to c. ___euros________ from d. ______dollars_____( euros OR dollars). and credited it to Spicurity’s account.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Importer = Nevada Co., a US-based MNC

Exporter = Spicurity, a German supplier

Amount of regular payments = 300,000 euros

Exchange rate = $1.93 per euro

Amount in dollars = $579,000 (300,000 euros * $1.93)

b) To convert to dollars from euro, when the exchange rate is $1.93 per euro, we multiply the euro-based amount by the exchange rate.  To convert the dollars to the euro, we divide by the exchange rate.  To multiply or divide depends on which currency has a higher value (e.g. euro vs dollars).

Marcy wanted to buy Lucy's land and use it to breed small pigs to be kept as pets. Marcy told Lucy that having water on the property was very important. Lucy assured her that a spring ran through one corner of the property. Therefore, Marcy agreed to buy the farm. Although she did not ask Lucy anything about it, Marcy, who loved pigs, assumed that the neighbors would be pleased with the pigs being in the area. In a separate contract, Lucy also agreed to sell Marcy a used truck for $5,000. After the contract for the land sale was entered into, it was discovered that actually the spring did not run through the corner of Lucy's property. The area in which the spring ran actually belonged to a neighbor. Additionally, when Lucy brought Marcy the used truck, Marcy said, "That's not the truck!" It was discovered that Lucy, who had two trucks, thought that Marcy had bought the older truck when Marcy thought she had purchased the newer truck. Marcy was also surprised when she received a petition signed by all surrounding landowners objecting to the presence of the pigs and threatening to sue Marcy for nuisance. Which of the following would be the result if Marcy attempts to rescind the contract and recover damages only on the basis of the neighbors' objection to a pig farm?
1) Marcy may rescind the contract and recover damages because Lucy made an implied misrepresentation.
2) Marcy may rescind the contract, but she may not recover damages because the situation involved a mutual mistake.
3) Marcy may recover damages, but she may not rescind the contract because Lucy made an implied misrepresentation.

Answer:

Tactile communication

Explanation:

Options are: "a. kinesic communication b. integrated marketing communication c. paralinguistic d. proxemic communication e. tactile communication"

This type of tactile communication is not common in the United States as a form of greeting among new friends or business associates. Tactile communication is a form of non-verbal communication in which the sender sends the message either by a handshake, kiss or simply by appropriate touching to the receiver. In this case, the friend kissed Valentina this is a form of tactical communication.

The tactile communication is a way of greeting and talking by means of non-verbal communication. The way of this communication is mostly not accepted in the countries with a developed or a developing status.

When Valentina was greeted in this way she could simply respond in the most comfortable manner by giving more focus on the matter of the meeting and not the way she is greeted.

Valentina also could ask about the correct way of responses she could give talking to him. She could also respond that if she likes or dislikes the way she has been greeted.

Tactile communication is the way of communicating with other person by way of gestures rather than verbal ones. Like shaking hands, kissing, wink an eye.

Answer:

Depreciable cost per mile= $0.28

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase price= $32,000

Salvage value= $4,000

Miles= 100,000

To calculate the depreciable cost per mile under the units-of-activity method, we need to use the following formula:

Depreciable cost per mile= (original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in miles]

Depreciable cost per mile= (32,000 - 4,000) / 100,000

Depreciable cost per mile= $0.28

Biarritz Corp. is growing quickly. Dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 29 percent for the next three years, with the growth rate falling off to a constant 6.3 percent thereafter.

If the required return is 15 percent and the company just paid a dividend of $2.90, what is the current share price?

Answers

Biarritz Corp. now has a share price of $84.55.

The dividend will grow by 29 percent yearly over the following three years. the following dividends will be paid throughout the first three years:

Dividend for year 1 equals $2.90 times (1 + 29%) to equal $3.75.

Dividend for year 2 equals $3.75 x (1 + 29%) = $4.84

Dividend for year 3 equals $4.84 times (1 + 29%), which equals $6.25.

The rate of dividend growth will eventually slow to a steady 6.3% after three years. the dividend growth formula can be used to determine the dividend for the upcoming year.

Dividend for year 4 equals $6.25 times (1 + 6.3%), or $6.65. The dividend will increase at a 6.3 percent annual pace after the fourth year. The dividend for year five will therefore be $6.65 times (1 + 6.3%) = $7.08

Dividend for year 1 divided by year 2 divided by dividend for year 1 divided by dividend for year 2Dividend for year n+1 = (1 + r) + 2 +...n+1 ÷ (r - g) Where,g = the dividend growth rate and r = the needed rate of return

Dividends for the first year were $3.75,

The second was $4.84, the third was $6.25, and the fourth was $8.00. Dividend for year 5 is $7.08, with r = 15%g = 29% for years 1 through 3 and 6.3% after that.

Consequently, the share price of Biarritz Corp. is currently $84.55.

You are the manager of a firm that manufactures front and rear windshields for the automobile industry. Due to economies of scale in the industry, entry by new firms is not profitable. Toyota has asked your company and your only rival to simultaneously submit a price quote for supplying 100,000 front and rear windshields for its newest version of the Highlander. If both you and your rival submit a low price, each firm supplies 50,000 front and rear windshields and earns a zero profit. If one firm quotes a low price and the other a high price, the low-price firm supplies 100,000 front and rear windshields and earns a profit of $11 million and the high-price firm supplies no windshields and loses $2 million. If both firms quote a high price, each firm supplies 50,000 front and rear windshields and earns a $6 million profit. Determine your optimal pricing strategy if you and your rival believe that the new Highlander is a "special edition" that will be sold only for one year. Would your answer differ if you and your rival were required to resubmit price quotes year after year and if, in any given year, there was a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

a. The optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0)

b. Yes, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] > [tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex].

Explanation:

a. Determine your optimal pricing strategy if you and your rival believe that the new Highlander is a "special edition" that will be sold only for one year.

Note: See the attached excel file for the Representation of one shot normal for of the game played between "You" and "Your Rival" together with the payoffs.

From the attached excel file, the dominant strategy is for “You” and “Your Rival” to charge “Low Price” each. If the dominant strategy is played by “You” and “Your Rival”, the optimal pricing strategy will be one-shot Nash equilibrium in which “You” charge low price, “Your Rival” charge low price and then the payoff is ($0, $0).

b. Would your answer differ if you and your rival were required to resubmit price quotes year after year and if, in any given year, there was a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander? Explain.

When we have a year-after-year competition between “You” and “Your Rival” but with a 60 percent chance that Toyota would discontinue the Highlander, the payoffs of the firm that continue to comply with the collusive strategy of charging “High Price” by each firm under the normal trigger strategy whereby “You” and “Your Rival” agree to charge high price as long as there is no past deviation by any of the firm, otherwise charge a low price is as follows:

[tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex] = $6 + $6(100% - 60%) + $6(100% - 60%)^2 + 6(100% - 60%)^2 …….

[tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex] = $6 / 6% = $10

Therefore, what the firm that cheats earn today is $11 million and it earns $0 forever. The implication of this is that [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] = $11

Therefore, the anwer will differ becuase it is not possible to sustain the collusive outcome as a Nash equilibrium because [tex]\pi ^{Cheat}[/tex] > [tex]\pi ^{Cooperate}[/tex].

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 ?

Answers

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)

Pix Company has the following production data for March: no beginning work in process, units started and completed 25,500, and ending work in process 4,400 units that are 100% complete for materials and 40% complete for conversion costs. Pix uses the FIFO method to compute equivalent units. If unit materials cost is $5 and unit conversion cost is $12, determine the costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and the units in ending work in process. The total costs to be assigned are $476,620.

Answers

Answer:

Ending Work In Process Cost =  $43,120

Units Transferred out Cost =  $433,500

Explanation:

Step 1 : Equivalent units calculation

Materials

Ending Work in Process = 4,400 x 100% = 4,400 units

Conversion

Ending Work in Process = 4,400 x 40% = 1,760 units

Step 2 : Total Costs assigned to Ending Work In Process

Ending Work In Process Cost = Materials + Conversion Costs

                                                 = 4,400 x $5 + 1,760 x $12

                                                 = $43,120

Step 3 : Total Cost of Units Transferred out

Units Transferred out = Total Unit Cost x Units transferred

                                    = $17.00 x 25,500

                                    = $433,500

The management of Gibraltar Brokerage Services anticipates a capital expenditure of $26,000 in 2 yr for the purpose of purchasing new computers and has decided to set up a sinking fund to finance this purchase. If the fund earns interest at the rate of 11%/year compounded quarterly, determine the size of each (equal) quarterly installment that should be deposited in the fund. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Answers

Answer:

$2,949.91.

Explanation:

The size of the quarterly installment can be determined by finding the (Payment) PMT amount using tie value of money principles.

Here I used a financial calculator to set my values and calculate PMT as :

PV = $0

N = 2 x 4 = 8

P/yr = 4

I = 11 %

FV = $26,000

PMT = ?

Therefore the (Payment) PMT is $2,949.91. The size of each (equal) quarterly installment should be  $2,949.91.

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.

A portfolio manager plans to use a Treasury bond futures contract to hedge a bond portfolio over the next three months. The portfolio is worth $100 million and will have a duration of 5.6 years in three months. The futures price is 112, and each futures contract is on $100,000 of bonds. The bond that is expected to be cheapest to deliver will have a duration of 9.0 years at the maturity of the futures contract. What position in futures contracts is required

Answers

Answer: 556

Explanation:

The position in futures contracts that is required will be calculated thus:

= (100,000,000 × 5.6) / (112,000 × 9)

= 560,000,000 / 1,008,000

= 555.5

= 556 approximately

Therefore, based on the calculation, the answer is 556.

If practical capacity is used to allocate costs, how much cost is allocated to shipping

Answers

Answer: $14,625

Explanation:

Based on the information given, if practical capacity is used to allocate cost, the cost that is allocated to shipping will be:

= Budgeted annual cost/200 × Number of shipping work stations

= 65000/200 × 45

= $14,625

Cost Allocation is the process of allocating an item of cost to an item of cost, which is directly followed. The cost that is allocated to shipping will be $14,625.

What is called costs allocation?

Cost Allocation is the process of identifying, accumulating, and allocating costs to expense items such as departments, products, systems, and many others.
