Bernie and Phil's Great American Surplus store placed an ad in the Sunday Times stating, "Next Saturday at 8:00 A.M. sharp 3 brand new mink coats worth $5,000 each will be sold for $500 each! First come, First served." Marsha LufMin was first in line when the store opened and went directly to the coat department, but the coats identified in the ad were not available for sale. She identified herself to the manager and pointed out that she was first in line in conformity with the store's advertised offer and that she was ready to pay the $500 price set forth in the store's offer. The manager responded that a newspaper ad is just an invitation to negotiate and that the store decided to withdraw "the mink coat promotion." Review the text on unilateral contracts in Section 12(b) of Chapter 12. Decide.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Bennie and Phil broke their unilateral contract by not having the coats available for sale.

Explanation:

Unilateral contracts are defined as one in which the party making an offer are the only ones that obligation to pay for specific performance of an action from the offeree.

For example if a person offers to pay anyone to mow their lawn. Any person that agrees to the job does not have a commitment to perform it.

The only commitment is that the offeror will pay once the lawn is mowed.

In the scenario above Bernie and Phil’s Great American Surplus store placed an ad in the Sunday Timesstating, “Next Saturday at 8:00 A.M. sharp 3 brand new mink coats worth $5,000 eachwill be sold for $500 each! First come, first served.” They are the offerors

Marsha now did her part by being first in line to buy the coat.

By not having the coat available for sale Bernie and Phil have broken their unilateral contract

A company has total equity of $2,160, net working capital of $240, long-term debt of $1,070, and current liabilities of $4,500. What is the company's net fixed assets?

Answers

Answer:

$2,990

Explanation:

A company's fixed asset consist of its plants and machineries, motor vehicles , buildings etc.

To get the company's net fixed asset, we would subtract the networking capital from total equity and add up long term debt.

Therefore,

Net fixed asset = $2,160 total equity - $240 working capital + $1,070 long term debt

= $2,990

Hence net fixed asset is $2,990

The December 31, 2019, balance sheet showed long-term debt of $1,620,000, $154,000 in the common stock account and $2,990,000 in the additional paid-in surplus account. The 2019 income statement showed an interest expense of $96,000 and the company paid out $149,000 in cash dividends during 2019. The firm’s net capital spending for 2019 was $1,000,000, and the firm reduced its net working capital investment by $129,000.

Required:
What was the firm's 2019 operating cash flow, or OCF?

Answers

Answer:

606,000

Explanation:

Operating cash flow (OCF) is a measure of the amount of cash generated by a company's normal business operations. Operating cash flow indicates whether a company can generate sufficient positive cash flow to maintain and grow its operations, otherwise, it may require external financing for capital expansion

Operating Cashflow = Cashflow from assets + Net capital spending + Change in Net working capital

Operating Cashflow =(-265,000) + (1,000,000) + (-129,000)

Operating Cashflow = 606,000

Working

New borrowings = Long term borrowings (2019)  - Long term borrowings (2018)

New borrowings = 1,620,000 - 1,420,000

New borrowings = 200,000

Cash flow to creditors = Interest expense - new borrowings

Cash flow to creditors = 96,000 - 200,000

Cash flow to creditors = 104,000

New equity = ((Common stock(2019) + additional paid in surplus(2019)) - (Common stock(2018) + additional paid in surplus(2018))

New equity = ($154,000 + $2,990,000) - ($144,000 + $2,690,000)

New equity = 3,144,000 - 2,834,000

New equity = 310,000

Cashflow to stockholders = Dividend (2019)  - new equity

Cashflow to stockholders = 149,000 - 310,000

Cashflow to stockholder = -161,000

Cashflow from assets = Cashflow to creditors + cashflow to stockolders

Cashflow from assets = (-104,000) + ( - 161,000)

Cashflow from assets = -265,000

BensonBenson​ & Company is an architectural firm specializing in home remodeling for private clients and new office buildings for corporate clients. charges customers at a billing rate equal to ​% of the​ client's total job cost. A​ client's total job cost is a combination of​ (1) professional time spent on the client ​( per hour cost of employing each​ professional) and​ (2) operating overhead allocated to the​ client's job. allocates operating overhead to jobs based on professional hours spent on the job. estimates its five professionals will incur a total of​ 10,000 professional hours working on client jobs during the year.

AllissaAllissa LarsonLarson hired BensonBenson to design her kitchen remodeling. A total of 35 professional hours were incurred on this job. In​ addition, LarsonLarson​'s remodeling job required one of the professionals to travel back and forth to her house for a total of 155 miles. The blueprints had to be copied four times because LarsonLarson changed the plans several times. In​ addition, 14 hours of secretarial time were used lining up the subcontractors for the job.

All operating costs other than professional salaries​ (travel reimbursements, copy​ costs, secretarial​ salaries, office​ lease, and so​forth) can be assigned to the three activities. Total activity​ costs, cost​ drivers, and total usage of those cost drivers are estimated as​ follows:

c. Calculate the activity cost allocation rates that could be used to allocate operating overhead costs to client jobs.
d. Calculate the amount that would be billed to LarsonLarson using ABC costing.
e. Which type of billing system is more fair to​ clients? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Benson & Company

a. Current indirect cost allocation rate per professional hour = Total overhead divided by 10,000 professional hours

$234,000/10,000

= $23.40

b. Total amount that would be billed to Larson with the current costing structure:

= $23.40 * 35

= $819.00

c. Overhead Rates based on ABC:

Transport to clients  = $0.60 ($9,000/15,000)

Blueprint copying =   $35.00 ($35,000/1,000)

Office support =        $38.00 ($190,000/5,000)

d. Larson's Job based on ABC:

Transport to clients  = $93 ($0.60 * 155)

Blueprint copying =      140 ($35.00 * 4)

Office support =          532 ($38.00 * 14)

                 Total       $765

e. With Benson Company using ABC billing system to charge Larson, the system is fairer to clients generally, because it takes into consideration the volume of each activity consumed per client. Customers are charged based on actual activities consumed, and not based on some arbitrary figures.  It is more reflective of the cost structure of the business and offers the best quality service to customers because price is determined by volume of activities.

Explanation:

Managers should make marketing decisions in the light of their own knowledge and experience instead of viewing research reports as the final answer to their problems because:

a. the number of factors included in a marketing research study are not exhaustive.
b. decisions based on marketing research reports are highly risky.
c. there is no possibility that marketing research will be affected by researcher bias.
d. marketing research is not a systematic process for obtaining information.

Answers

Answer:

a. the number of factors included in a marketing research study are not exhaustive.

Explanation:

Marketing research is highly effective as a tool for guiding marketing decisions, but it is necessary for the manager to rely on making decisions not only through research, but also due to his conceptual skills of seeing the organization in a systematic way, where there is a much greater breadth and more complex factors than just the information found through marketing research. The set of the manager's vision, experiences, analyzes and indicators is important for the most adequate assessment so that organizational marketing decisions are effective and achieve the company's objective.

Therefore, it is correct to state that the number of factors included in a marketing research study is not exhaustive.

This activity is important because any business that offers multiple product lines to multiple market segments is faced with the task of making the product/market decisions and prioritizing those decisions. Products and market segments that are growing quickly and are very profitable should get more attention and resources than a product and market segment that does not show as much potential.
Once a marketing manager creates a market-product grid, they must select which segments to target. To do this, the marketing manager should use several criteria in assessing the different segments. Those criteria include: market size, expected growth, competitive position, cost of reaching the segment, and the compatibility with the organization's objectives and resources.
The goal of this exercise is to demonstrate your understanding of the market-product development process by analyzing a gift shop's markets and products.
Read the case below and then answer the questions that follow as you consider its markets and product offerings.
A small local gift shop recently marked its 25th anniversary of being in business. Over that time, the owners have continually changed the products sold in its store to reflect changes in the market. From the early days of selling small gift-type items such as figurines and collectibles, the store now offers a more eclectic mix of merchandise that includes Vera Bradley purses and inexpensive jewelry, as well as items that could be classified as "gift-type" products and merchandise that is best described as "collectibles."
However, the demographics of the store's market, as well as the needs of that market, seem to be changing. There has been an influx of younger customers (20s and 30s) into the area, which has brought the average age of the area down by 9.8 years. This rapidly growing segment doesn't seem interested in buying the same collectibles that their parents bought. Many older residents (60s and 70s) have been leaving the area for retirement. The older customers are still buying the collectibles, but are also buying gifts for children and grandchildren for holidays and special occasions. Indeed, while sales of merchandise aimed at the younger customers have grown 30 percent, sales to the older crowd have been flat. And the younger group has now passed the older segment in terms of the size of the population. While there are other stores in the area selling similar merchandise, this gift shop has managed to get an exclusive on the Vera Bradley line, which has been popular with the younger customers. The owners of the gift shop are considering which market segment should be the focus of their attention and limited resources. This is an especially critical decision because of the limited space in the store and the need to add fixtures for carrying some of the collectible items that are coming on the market.
Based on the limited information in the case, which market segment is larger?
a) the over-80 segment
b) all segments are the same size
c) the 60s and 70s segment
d) the 20s and 30s segment

Coronado Industries sells 50000 units for $13 a unit. Fixed costs are $350000 and net income is $100000. What should be reported as variable expenses in the CVP income statement?

Answers

Answer:

Total variable cost= $200,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Coronado Industries sells 50,000 units for $13 a unit. Fixed costs are $350,000 and net income is $100,000.

First, we need to calculate the total contribution margin:

Total contribution margin= net income + fixed costs

Total contribution margin= 100,000 + 350,000

Total contribution margin= $450,000

Now, we can calculate the total variable costs:

Total variable cost= Sales - total contribution margin

Total variable cost= 50,000*13 - 450,000

Total variable cost= 200,000

What are the key factor(s) for success in this industry/market

Answers

Answer:

Strategic Focus (Leadership, Management, Planning) People (Personnel, Staff, Learning, Development) Operations (Processes, Work) Marketing (Customer Relations, Sales, Responsiveness)

Explanation:

Whether you're operating an established small business or just starting out, an effective, ongoing marketing strategy is vital. But marketing without a plan will not only waste time and money; it may alienate your customers and stall the growth of your business.

To match your marketing strategies to the needs and expectations of your target customers and ensure that your business continues to grow, start by identifying your key success factors.

Key success factors (or KSF) are business strategies that are critical to a successful relationship with your customers.

Key success factors are decided by the needs and preferences of your market and customers, not by your business. However, consumers aren't going to tell you what those KSF are. Discovering your key success factors requires researching your customers to understand who they are, what they want from your company, and what prompts them to make a purchase.

A business generally has three to five key success factors that it needs to focus on to achieve its goals. Key success factors also may relate to areas of weakness that you must overcome to create a stronger relationship with your customers.

Once you understand and begin using your key success factors, they become part of your brand and business style.

Answers

Answer:

10-13 Given the cost per king-size sheet set above, and assuming the manufacturer has total fixed costs of $500,000 and estimates first year sales will be 50,000 sets, determine the price to consumers if the company desires a 40 percent margin on sales.

variable cost per unit = 28 + 12 + 10 + 3 + 16 + 14 + 5 + 8 + 15 + 30 + 15 = $156

average fixed cost per unit = $500,000 / 50,000 units = $10

total cost per unit = $166

desired profit margin = 40%, so total costs must be 60% of selling price

selling price = $166 / 60% = $276.67 ≈ $277 per unit

10-14 If the company decides to sell through retailers instead of directly to consumers online, to maintain the consumer price you calculated in the previous question, at what price must it sell the product to a wholesaler who then sells it to retailers? Assume wholesalers desire a 10 percent margin and retailers get a 20 percent margin, both based on their respective selling prices.

retailers' margin = $277 x 20% = $55.40

selling price to retailers = $277 - $55.40 = $221.60

wholesalers' margin = $221.60 x 10% = $22.16

selling price to wholesalers = $221.60 - $22.16 = $199.44 per unit

Leonard, a company that manufactures explosionproof motors, is considering two alternatives for expanding its international export capacity. Option 1 requires equipment purchases of $900,000 now and $560,000 two years from now, with annual M&O costs of $79,000 in years 1 through 10. Option 2 involves subcontracting some of the production at costs of $280,000 per year beginning now through the end of year 10. Neither option will have a significant salvage value.

Required:
Use a present worth analysis to determine which option is more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year. (Note: Check out the spreadsheet exercises for new options that Leonard has been offered recently.)

Answers

Answer:

Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the total present values (in bold red color) of the two alternatives for expanding international export capacity.

Present worth can be described as an equivalence method of analysis in which the cash flows of an investment or a project are discounted to a single present value.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Total present value of Option 1 = – $1,620,094

Total present value of Option 2 = – $1,453,892

Since the total present value of Option 2 of – $1,453,892 is lower than the total present value of Option 1 of – $1,620,094, it implies that Option 2 costs less and more attractive at the company’s MARR of 20% per year than Option 1. Therefore, Option 2 should be selected.

Company sells a nature guide. The following information was reported for a typical month: Total Per Unit Sales $ 17,600 $ 16.00 Variable expenses 9,680 Contribution margin 7,920 Fixed expenses 3,600 Net operating income $ 4,320 What is Bear's current break-even point in unit and dollars

Answers

Answer:

500 units and $8,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Break even point in units

= Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit

= ($3,600) ÷ ($7,920 ÷ ($17,600 ÷ $16)

= ($3,600) ÷ ($7.2)

= 500 units

Now the break even point in dollars is

= Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= ($3,600) ÷ ($7.2 ÷ $16)

= $3,600 ÷ 0.45

= $8,000

We simply applied the above formula and the same is to be considered

You are considering an investment in Justus Corporation’s stock, which is expected to pay a dividend of $2.25 a share at the end of the year (D1 = $2.25) and has a beta of 0.9. The risk-free rate is 4.9%, and the market risk premium is 5%. Justus currently sells for $46.00 a share, and its dividend is expected to grow at some constant rate, g. Assuming the market is in equilibrium, what does the market believe will be the stock price at the end of 3 years? (That is, what is P3 ?)

Answers

Answer:

The price 3-years from now will be of $52,50

Explanation:

We solve for g using the Gordon model:

[tex]\frac{divends(1+g)}{Price} = return-growth[/tex]

As we don't know the rate of return we solve ofr that fist using CAPM:

CAPM (Capital Assets Price Model)

[tex]Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)[/tex]

risk free 0.049

market rate 0.099

premium market = market rate - risk free 0.05

beta(non diversifiable risk) 0.9

[tex]Ke= 0.049 + 0.9 (0.05)[/tex]

Ke 0.09400

We plug that in the gordon equation and solve for g:

[tex]\frac{2.25}{Price} = return-growth[/tex]

2.25 = 0.094 x 46 - g x 46

(2.25 - 4.324) / 46 = -g

-0.0450869565217391 = -g

g = 0.045087

In the gordon model the price of the stock increases at the grow rate:

as  P = D/(r-g)

     P1 = D(1+g)/r-g)

    P1 / P = D(1+g)/(r- g) / D/(r- g) = 1 + g  

  [tex]P_3 = P(1+g)^3 = 46(1+0.045087)^3 = 52.50675369[/tex]

Darnell is buying salad and pizza for a company lunch. Suppose that a bowl of salad costs $4.00, and a slice of pizza costs $2.00. Let E be the amount in dollars that Darnell spends on salad and pizza. If Darnell buys S bowls of salad and P slices of pizza, then the total amount of money he spends ( E ) can be represented by the equation . Now rearrange the equation you wrote above so that P is written in terms of E and S. The quantity of pizza he buys can be represented by the equation . Suppose Darnell has $40.00 to spend on salad and pizza; that is, E=$40.00.
Complete the following table with values of S or P that make the equation true.
To complete the first row, determine the number of pizza slices Paolo can purchase with $40.00, when the number of salad bowls he purchases is 0.
Budget (Dollars) Salad (Bowls) Pizza (Slice)
40.00 0 _____
40.00 4 _____
40.00 _____ 0

Answers

Answer:

1. If Darnell buys S bowls of salad and P slices of pizza, then the total amount of money he spends ( E ) can be represented by the equation;

E = 4S + 2P

2. Now rearrange the equation you wrote above so that P is written in terms of E and S. The quantity of pizza he buys can be represented by the equation;

E = 4S + 2P

2P = E - 4S

P = (E - 4S)/2

3. Budget = $40.00. No salad purchased

Pizza = (E - 4S)/2

= (40 - 0)/2

= 20 pizzas

Budget = $40.00. 4 salads purchased

Pizza = (E - 4S)/2

= (40 - 4 * 4)/2

= 12 pizzas

Budget = $40.00. 0 Pizzas.

Salads = 40/4

= 10 salads

Shenandoah Skies is the name of an oil painting by artist Kara Lee. In each of the following cases, determine the amount and character of the taxpayer’s gain or loss on sale of the painting.
A. The taxpayer is Kara Lee, who sold her painting to the Reller Gallery for $6,000.
B. The taxpayer is the Reller Gallery, who sold the painting purchased from Kara to a regular customer for $10,000.
C. The taxpayer is Lollard Inc., the regular customer that purchased the painting from the Reller Gallery. Lollard displayed the painting in the lobby of its corporate headquarters until it sold Shenandoah Skies to a collector from Dallas. The collector paid $45,000 for the painting.

Answers

Answer:

a. Kara Lee is the painter so the painting is simply part of her normal business operations in selling it.

Amount is $6,000 and this is a sale.

b. Taxpayer is Reller Gallery who sold the painting as part of their normal business operations.

Profit on Sale = Amount sold - Amount purchased

= 10,000 - 6,000

= $4,000

Amount is $4,000 and the nature is ordinary business income.

c. Lollard Inc sold this painting even though it is not part of their normal operations.

This is therefore a gain.

Gain = 45,000 - 10,000

= $35,000

Amount is $35,000 and is a Capital Gain.

Allen Air Conditioning manufactures room air conditioners at plants in Houston, Phoenix, and Memphis. These are sent to regional distributors in Dallas, Atlanta, and Denver. The shipping costs vary, and the company would like to find the least-cost way to meet the demands at each of the distribution centers. Dallas needs to receive 800 air conditioners per month, Atlanta needs 600, and Denver needs 200. Houston has 850 air conditioners available each month, Phoenix has 650, and Memphis has 300. The shipping cost per unit from Houston to Dallas is $8, to Atlanta $12, and to Denver $10. The cost per unit from Phoenix to Dallas is $10, to Atlanta $14, and to Denver $9. The cost per unit from Memphis to Dallas is $11, to Atlanta $8, and to Denver $12.

Required:
a. How many units should owner Stephen Allen ship from each plant to each regional distribution center?
b. What is the total transportation cost?

Answers

Answer:

$14700

Explanation:

Given that:

i. Dallas needs 800 per month

ii. Atlanta needs 600 per month

iii. Denver needs 200 per month

iv. Houston has 850 available per month

v. Phoenix has 650 available per month

vi. Memphis has 300 available per month

Assuming that a plant can deliver air conditioners to more than one regional distributor in a month. Then;

a. For least-cost way to meet the demand, Stephen Allen could ship the air conditioners to each regional distributors as follows:

From Houston to Dallas = 800 units

From Houston to Atlanta = 50 units

From Phoenix to Atlanta = 250 units

From Memphis to Atlanta = 300 units

From Phoenix to Denver = 200 units

Total units transported = 1600 units

b. Cost per transportation:

Houston to Dallas = $8 x 800  = $6400

Houston to Atlanta = $12 x 50 = $600

Phoenix to Atlanta = $14 x 250 = $3500

Memphis to Atlanta = $8 x 300 = $2400

Phoenix to Denver = $9 x 200 = $1800

Total transportation cost = $6400 +$600 + $3500 + $2400 + $1800

                                         = $14700

The total transportation cost would be $14700.

Adam Holmes is the Processing Manager of Empire Mortgage Company, a firm that processes loan applications for a number of regional builders. Home buying and therefore mortgage processing is a highly seasonal business, and requires temporary staff during busy processing periods. Holmes hires staff on a monthly basis from two different temporary staffing firms - Professional Temps (PT) and Support on Demand (SD). In June, Empire hired 14 staff members from PT and 10 from SD. PT is a more established firm and SD is a newly organized firm in the staffing market. Holmes has compiled the following information for June:


Budgets for June PT staff SD staff
Budgeted hourly rate $50 $45
Budgeted time per app. (hours) 1.2 1.4

Actual results for June PT staff SD staff
Actual hourly rate $52 $47
Actual time per app. (hours) 1.4 1.2
Number of actual apps completed 2604 1600

Required:
a. Determine the labor rate and efficiency variances for (a) 14 PT staff and (b) the SD staff hired in June.
b. Comment on the efficiency of the PT and SD staff hired by Empire Mortgage.

Answers

Answer:

a. Labor variances for 14 PT staff:

Labor rate variance = (Standard Rate – Actual Rate) x (Actual time per app) * (number of apps. completed)

= ($50 - $52) x 1.40 x 2,604

= $7291.20 (Unfavorable)

Labor Efficiency variance = [(Standard hours per app. X number of app.) - (Actual time per App. * number of apps.)] * Std. rate

= [(1.20 * 2,604) - (1.40 * 2,604)] * $50

= [3,124.80 - 3,645.60] * $50

= $26,040 (Unfavorable)

Labor Cost variance = Labor rate variance + Labor efficiency variance

= $7,291.20 (Unfavorable) + $ 26,040 (Unfavorable)

= $33,331.20 (Unfavorable)

Labor variances for 10 SD staff:

Labor rate variance = (Standard Rate – Actual Rate) x (Actual time per app) * (number of apps. completed)

= ($45 - $47) * 1.20 * 1,600

= $3840 (Unfavorable)

Labor Efficiency variance = [(Standard hours per app. X number of app.) - (Actual time per App. * number of apps.)] * Std. rate

= (1.40*1,600) – (1.20*1,600)]*$45

= [2,240 – 1,920] * $45

= $14,400 (Favorable)

Labor Cost variance = Labor rate variance + Labor efficiency variance

= $3,840 (Unfavorable) + $ 14,400 (Favorable)  

= $10,560 (Favorable)
