Use the following information to answer Questions 12 - 15. Below is selected data for Gertup Corporation as of 12/31/05: Gertup has maintained the same inventory levels throughout 2005. If end of year inventory turnover was increased to 12 through more efficient relationships with suppliers, how much cash would be freed up (pick closest number)
Answer:
the cash that should be freed up is $267
Explanation:
The computation of the cash that would be freed up is shown below:
As we know that
The inventory turnover is
= Cost of goods sold ÷ average inventory
12 = $14,800 ÷ average inventory
So, the average inventory is 1,233
Now the cash that should be freed up is
= 1,500 - 1,233
= $267
hence, the cash that should be freed up is $267

you observe thundering herd common stoc k selling for $40.00 per share. the next dividen is ecoected to be $2.00, and is expected to grow at a 4% annual rate forever. If your requir4ed rate of return is 12%, you should purchase the stock? A. Yes, because the presemt value of the expected future cash flows is greater than $40 g
Answer:
no, because the present value of the expected future cash flows is less than $40
Explanation:
The computation of the share price present value is given below:
= Next dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)
= $2 ÷ (12% - 4%)
= $25
As we can see that the share price present value would be $25 but the stock selling price is $40 so the present value would be lower than $40 that means the stock should not be purchased

C Corporation is investigating automating a process by purchasing a machine for $808,200 that would have a 9 year useful life and no salvage value. By automating the process, the company would save $141,000 per year in cash operating costs. The new machine would replace some old equipment that would be sold for scrap now, yielding $22,800. The annual depreciation on the new machine would be $89,800. The simple rate of return on the investment is closest to (Ignore income taxes.): Multiple Choice 11.28% 5.28% 6.52% 16.88%
Answer:
6.52%
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,
New machine cost = $808,200
Scrap sold = $22,800
Cost of investment = $808,200 - $22,800 = $785,400
Saving from new machine = $141,000
Annual depreciation of machine = $89,800
Net operating income = $141,000 - $89,800 = $51,200
Now we can calculate the rate of return by using following formula,
Simple rate of return = Net operating income ÷ Cost of Investment
= $51,200 ÷ $785,400
= 6.52%

What is the present value of this annuity if the discount rate is 12%
Answer:
Present value of annuity = $102,785.2
Explanation:
An annuity is a series of cashflow expected to be received or paid yearly for a certain number of years
The present value of annuity = A×( 1 - (1+r)^(-n) )/r
Where A is the annual cash flow= 25,000
n- number of years = 6
r- rate per period = 12%
25,000 × 1- (1.12)^(-6)/0.12
25,000× 4.111=$102,785.2
Present value of annuity = $102,785.2
During the year, Walt who is self-employed travels from Seattle to Tokyo, Japan, on business. His time was spent as follows: two days travel (one day each way), two days business, and two days personal. His expenses for the trip were as follows (meals and lodging reflect only the business portion): Airfare $3,000 Lodging 2,000 Meals 1,000 Presuming no reimbursement, Walt's deductible expenses are: a.$3,500. b.$6,000. c.$4,500. d.$5,500.
Answer:
d.$5,500.
Explanation:
The computation of the deductible expense is shown below:
= Airfare + lodging + 50% of meals
= $3,000 + $2,000 + 50% of $1,000
= $3,000 + $2,000 + $500
= $5,500
hence, the deductible expense is $5,500
Here we take 100% of airfare & lodging but we took 50% for the meals
hence, the option d is correct

Suppose a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) research firm is approached by the state legislature and asked to provide data about vehicle movement within the state for all cars that can be tracked with direct GPS or through the owner's smartphone. Based on the movement of the cars (and phones) over a certain time, the police can decide when a car was speeding. They intend on using this data to send speeding tickets to those who moved too far, too fast. Also, if an underage driver spends too long parked by an adult only establishment, police will be notified to investigate. If you are the research firm, would you supply the data?
Answer:
No. I would not supply the data.
Explanation:
Was the GIS research firm commissioned by the state legislature? The state lacks the authority to demand the GIS information. Moreover, the data subjects did not give their consent for the information to be used for this purpose. It will be a violation of data privacy rules to provide the data when the consents of the data subjects were not obtained.
Suppose that an initial $20 billion increase in investment spending expands GDP by $20 billion in the first round of the multiplier process. Also assume that GDP and consumption both rise by $18 billion in the second round of the process. Instructions: Round your answers to 1 decimal place. a. What is the MPC in this economy
Answer: 0.9
Explanation:
The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is calculated by using the formula:
= Change in consumption / Change in income
where,
Change in consumption = $18 billion
Change in income = $20 billion
MPC = Change in consumption / Change in income
= $18 billion / $20 billion
= 0.9
Therefore, MPC is 0.9.

On January 1, 2017, Alexis Company purchased a delivery truck for $60,000. They estimated the useful life of the truck to be 6 years, and the salvage value to be $12,000. On July 1, 2022, they sold the truck for a loss of $1,200. Assuming the company uses straight line depreciation, what was the selling price of the truck
Answer:
$14,800
Explanation:
The computation of the selling price of the truck is shown below:
The depreciation expense is
= ($60,000 - $12,000) ÷ 6 years
= $8,000
Now the depreciation for 5.5 years is
= $8,000 × 5.5 years
= $44,000
Now book value is
= $60,000 - $44,000
= $16,000
ANd, finally the selling price of the truck is
= $16,000 - $1,200
= $14,800

b. Direct laborers worked 69,000 hours at a rate of $15 per hour.
c. Total variable manufacturing overhead for the month was $565,200.
Required:
a. What raw materials cost would be included in the company's planning budget for March?
b. What raw materials cost would be included in the company's flexible budget for March?
c. What is the materials price variance for March?
Answer:
Preble Companya. The raw materials cost for the planning budget for March is:
= $1,260,000
b. The raw materials cost included in the company's flexible budget for March
= $1,530,000
c. The materials price variance for March is:
= $90,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Standard Cost Card Per Unit:
Direct materials: 5 pounds at $9 per pound $45
Direct labor: 3 hours at $14 per hour 42
Variable overhead: 3 hours at $8 per hour 24
Total standard cost per unit $111
Planning budget production and sales for March = 28,000 units
Actual production and sales for March = 34,000 units
Purchase of 180,000 pounds of raw materials / 5 = 36,000 units
Purchase cost = $8.50 per pound
Price variance = $0.50 per pound favorable ($9.00 - $8.50)
Total purchase cost = $1,530,000
Direct labor worked = 69,000
Standard labor hours = 34,000 * 3 = 102,000 hours
Direct labor volume variance = 33,000 hours (102,000 - 69,000)
Standard variable manufacturing overhead = $816,000 (34,000 * $24)
a. The raw materials cost for the planning budget for March is:
= $1,260,000 ($9 * 5 * 28,000)
b. The raw materials cost included in the company's flexible budget for March
= $1,530,000 ($9 * 5 * 34,000)
c. The materials price variance for March is:
= $90,000 ($9 - $8.50)180,000

A hospital needs 2,900 units of a medicine throughout the year. The purchasing cost varies with the size of the order. If the number of units of the medicine that the hospital orders is below 100, the supplier charges $30 per unit; if it is between 100 and 499, the price is $27 each; and if they order 500 units and above, it is $26 per unit. The holding cost per unit per year is $30, as the medicine must be kept in a special device to prevent spoilage. The ordering cost is $10.
Required:
a. How many units of medicine should the hospital order to minimize their total annual cost?
b. What is the minimum annual total cost?
Answer:
a. 100 units are ordered
b. Minimum Total annual cost = 80090
Explanation:
Given that,
D=2900.
C = $30 IF q<100
= $27 IF 100<Q<499.
= $26 IF Q>500.
C(H) = $30
C(O) = $10.
EOQ = √(2*D*C(O)/C(H))
= √( 2*2900*10/30)
= √( 1933.3333)
= 43.97
TAC if 44 units are ordered = (2*D*C(O)*C(H))+D*C
= 2*2900*10*30+ 2900*30
= 1319.09+ 87000 = 88319.09
TAC if 100 units are ordered = 2900/100*10+ 100/2*30+ 2900*27
= 29*10+ 50*30+2900*27
= 290+1500+78300
= 1790 + 78300 = 80090
if 500 units are ordered = 2900/500*10+ 500/2*30+2900*26
= 58+ 7500+75400= 82958.
∴ we get
100 units are ordered
Minimum Total annual cost = 80090.

Residual Income The operating income and the amount of invested assets in each division of Otte Industries are as follows: Operating Income Invested Assets Retail Division $ 8,000,000 $40,000,000 Commercial Division 12,750,000 75,000,000 Internet Division 270,000 1,800,000 Assume that management has established a 10% minimum acceptable rate of return for invested assets. a. Determine the residual income for each division. Retail Division Commercial Division Internet Division Operating income $8,000,000 $12,750,000 $270,000 Minimum acceptable operating income as a percent of invested assets fill in the blank 1 fill in the blank 2 fill in the blank 3 Residual income $fill in the blank 4 $fill in the blank 5 $fill in the blank 6
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The residual income for each division will be calculated as follows:
Retail division:
Operating income = $8,000,000
Less: Minimum acceptable operating income as a percentage of invested assets = 10% × $40,000,000 = $4,000,000
Residual income = $4,000,000
Commercial division:
Operating income = $12,750,000
Less: Minimum acceptable operating income as a percentage of invested assets = 10% × $75,000,000 = $7,500,000
Residual income = $5,250,000
Internet division:
Operating income = $270,000
Less: Minimum acceptable operating income as a percentage of invested assets = 10% × $1,800,000 = $180,000
Residual income = $90,000
From the information above, we can also see that the commercial division has the highest residual value.

Answer:
I commend the governments of Peachtree City and Fayette County for their recent intervention, which will be beneficial to our economy. Earlier, the city reduced the water level in the lake so that people who live on the lake could maintain the shoreline. When the council started to refill the lake, city staff noted problems with the dam and spillway and brought it to the attention of Fayette County. There were financial constraints to completing this project, but the Peachtree City government decided to spend additional money to finish the project. That was the right course of action. The residents’ properties (and property values) have been restored, and the lake will once again draw visitors to the town to enjoy the lake and spend money in our town’s businesses.

Lauer Corporation uses the periodic inventory system and has provided the following information about one of its laptop computers: Date Transaction Number of Units Cost per Unit 1/1 Beginning Inventory 220 $ 920 5/5 Purchase 320 $ 1,020 8/10 Purchase 420 $ 1,120 10/15 Purchase 260 $ 1,170 During the year, Lauer sold 1,050 laptop computers. What was ending inventory using the FIFO cost flow assumption
Answer:
$198,900
Explanation:
Ending inventory units = Available units for sale - Units sold
Ending inventory units = 220 + 320 + 420 + 260
Ending inventory units = 1,220.
Units sold = 1,050.
Ending inventory units = 1,220 - 1,050
Ending inventory units = 170
As per the FIFO cost flow assumption, sales comprise of units from beginning inventory and earlier purchases. Hence, ending inventory comprises units from latest purchases.
So, ending inventory of 170 units would be valued at the price from 10/15 purchases.
10/15 purchase price per unit = $1,170
Ending inventory value = 170 units x $1,170
Ending inventory value = $198,900
