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

The Technology department at Watkins Transit has a budgeted annual cost of $65,000. The department has a capacity to handle 250 work stations per year. Currently, purchasing, shipping, and administrative departments have 20, 45, and 135 work stations, respectively. 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.

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

[tex]\rm\, Cost \;that \;is \; allocated \; to \;shipping = \rm\, \frac{ \;Budgeted \; Annual \;Cost}{200} \times \;Number \;of \; shipping \;work \;stations\\\\= \dfrac{65000}{200} \times 45\\\\= \$14,625[/tex]

Hence, the cost that is allocated to shipping is $14,625.

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 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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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)

Risk free rate = (0.45 × 12%) + (0.55 × 9%)

Risk free rate = 10.35%

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).

What macroeconomic goal is Real GDP used to measure for?

Answers

Answer:

"Economic growth " would be the correct answer.

Explanation:

Throughout a particular year, real GDP tests the overall production as well as commodities of the economy, including light of the price adjustments.People should measure or equate GDP throughout the year as inflation would be factored into the equation which would be a fair predictor about wherever the market cycle goes.

Thus the above is the right answer.

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

Quaker State Inc. offers a new employee a single-sum signing bonus at the date of employment. Alternatively, the employee can receive $10,000 at the date of employment plus $40,000 at the end of each of his first two years of service. Assuming the employee's time value of money is 9% annually, what lump sum at employment date would make him indifferent between the two options

Answers

Answer:

$80.364.45

Explanation:

The lump sum that would make the employee indifferent can be determined by calculating the present value of the annuity

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $10,000  

Cash flow in year 1 = $40,000  

Cash flow in year 2 = $40,000

I = 9%

PV = $80,364.45

To find the PV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Prepare the journal entry for the stock dividend Johnson wants to sell his farm to Davis for $225.000. Johnson tells Davis that he believes the value the farm is far more than that, and it will only go up, way up. Relying upon these statements, Davis buys the farm from Johnson for $225,000. However, Daviss cousin Bart, who is a real estate expert, told Davis that he overpaid for the farm. On discovering this, Davis decided to sue Johnson for fraud in the inducement.A) Based on these facts, does Davis have a cause of action for fraud in the inducement? Please discuss all relevant issues and please be specific.B) Assume that Davis won the lawsuit. After losing in court, Johnson ran out of money and, consequently, became very depressed. Subsequently, Johnson decided to become a cyclist in hope that cycling could help him turn his life around. Fairly recently, Johnson participated in a bicycle race conducted by the US Cycling Federation. Unfortunately, a car hit Johnson during the race. He claims that employees of the Federation improperly allowed the car onto the course, as the car "came out of nowhere." The Federation claims that it cannot be held liable to Johnson because Johnson signed a release exculpating the Federation from responsibility for any personal injury resulting from his participation in the race. Based on these facts, who wins and why? Please discuss all relevant issues.C) Johnson was also the principal shareholder in Matthew Corporation along with Wilson. The corporation was located in the city of Jonesville, Wisconsin. This corporation was engaged in the business of manufacturing paper novelties, which were sold over a wide area in the Midwest. The corporation was also in the business of binding books. Johnson decided he did not want to deal with people anymore (he even printed T- Shirts "do I look like peoples person"), so he purchased Wilson's shares of the Matthew Corporation. In consideration thereof, Wilson agreed that for a period of two years he would not (a) manufacture or sell in Wisconsin and Illinois any paper novelties of any kind that would compete with those sold by the Matthew Corporation or (b) engage in the bookbinding business in the city of Jonesville.

For example once we get aluminium ingots through casting process will be further fabricated into many finished aluminium products.Solidification of pure metals takes place in the following two steps:(a) The formation of stable nuclei in the melt part or we can say the process nucleation.(b) The growth of nuclei into crystals which will further form grain structure.(a) The formation of stable nuclei in the melt part or nucleation process:- It is a physical reaction which occurs when components of a solution start to precipitate out and starts to form nuclei which attract more precipitate. Nucleation is the beginning process of a phase transformation. It involves The assembly of proper kinds of atoms by diffusion. Formation of critical sized particles of the new phase. Structural change into one or more unstable intermediate structures.There are two main mechanisms from which solid particles nucleation occur in a liquid metal are:-(i) Homogeneous nucleation.(ii) Heterogeneous nucleation.(i) Homogeneous nucleation:- This type of nucleation takes place when the solution is totally uniform or in pure metals and the metal itself provides the atoms spontaneously needed to form the nuclei. The formation of a nucleus means that at the new phase boundaries, an interface is formed. In case of solidification of pure metals cooling of a pure liquid metal takes place below freezing temperature at equilibrium to a required degree, it will result into many homogeneous nuclei which are created by slow moving atoms which bond together. For the homogeneous nucleation, it is necessary to process through a considerable amount of under cooling which include a wide range of temperatures. For a nucleus to be stable, it much reaches a critical size so that it can grow into the crystal. A cluster of atoms bonded together that is less in size than the critical size is called an embryo, and on the other hand those sizes are larger than the critical size is called a nucleus. For example all natural and artificial uniform solutions having different crystallization process starts with homogeneous nucleation.(ii) Heterogeneous nucleation:- This type of nucleation takes place when foreign particles are present as impurities in the melt part or in casting. It takes place in a liquid medium on the container surface or having impurities which are insoluble that decreases the critical free energy which is required for forming a stabilized nucleus.(b) The growth of nuclei into crystals:- Growth may be defined as the increase of the nucleus in size as it grows by addition of atoms. After the formation of stable nuclei due to nucleation in a solidifying metal, these stable nuclei will start to grow into crystals as shown in the figure (1.1) below.
