Assume that Ray is 38 years old and has 27 years for saving until he retires. He expects an APR of 7.5% on his investments. How much does he need to save if he puts money away annually in equal end-of-the-year amounts to achieve a future value of $1,200,000 dollars in 27 years' time

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $14,882.44

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Future Value= $1,200,000

Number of periods= 27 years

Interest rate= 7.5%

To calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:

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

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

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

A= (1,200,000*0.075) / [(1.075^27) - 1]

A= $14,882.44

The rate of return on the common stock of Flowers by Flo is expected to be 14 percent in a boom economy, 8 percent in a normal economy, and only 2 percent in a recessionary economy. The probabilities of these economic states are 20 percent for a boom, 70 percent for a normal economy, and 10 percent for a recession. What is the variance of the returns

Answers

Answer:

the variance is 0.001044

Explanation:

The computation of the variance of the returns is shown below:

But before that expected return to be determined

E(r) = Sum of (probabilities × expected return)

 = 0.20 × .14 + 0.70 × 0.08 + 0.10 × 0.02

= 0.086

Now

variance = Sum of (individual return - mean return)^2

= 0.20 × (0.14  -0.086)^2  + 0.7 × (0.08 - 0.086)^2 + 0.10 × (0.02 - 0.086)^2

= 0.001044

hence the variance is 0.001044

Tara Foods of Georgia produces a wide range of peanut butters and food extracts, but does not sell any of its output under its own brand name.Tara evidently produces __________ .

Answers

Answer:

Middlemen's brands

Explanation:

A middlemen's brand can be defined as a type of business in which a manufacturing company that is into the production of goods sells its products to either a wholesaler, retailer without adding their brand name. Thus, this middlemen then sell the product with their own brand name.

In this scenario, Tara Foods of Georgia produces a wide range of peanut butters and food extracts, but does not sell any of its output under its own brand name.Tara evidently produces middlemen's brands.

A company is about to begin production of a new product. The manager of the department that will produce one of the components for the new product wants to know how often the machine used to produce the item will be available for other work. The machine will produce the item at a rate of 200 units a day. Eighty units will be used daily in assembling the final product. Assembly will take place five days a week, 50 weeks a year. The manager estimates that it will take a full day to get the machine ready for a production run, at a cost of $250. Inventory holding costs will be $10 a year.

Required:
a. What run quantity should be used to minimize total annual costs?
b. What is the length of a production run in days?
c. During production, at what rate will inventory build-up?
d. lf the manager wants to run another job between runs of this item, and needs a minimum of 10 days per cycle for the other work, will there be enough time?
e. Given your answer to part d, the manager wants to explore options that will allow this other job to be performed using this equipment. Name three options the manager can consider.
f. Suppose the manager decides to increase the run size of the new product. How many additional units would be needed to just accommodate the other job? How much will that increase the total annual cost?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given that :

Production rate (p) = 200 units / day

daily usage (d) = 80 units / day

Assembly, a = 5 days a week ; 50 weeks a year

Setup cost (S) = $250

Holding cost (H )= $10

A) Run quantity to minimize total annual cost:

√(2DS/H) * √p / (p - d)

D = annual demand = (80 * 5 * 50) = 20,000

√(2(20000)(250)/10) * √200 / (200 - 80)

1000 * 1.2909944

= 1290.99

= 1291 units

B) Run length :

1291 / 200 = 6.455 days

C) Inventory build up:

Daily production - daily usage:

(200 - 80) = 120 units / day

The data required to answer the question are

production rate = 200/dayusage = 80 per dayAssembly = 5 per week and 50 weeks per yearCost of set up = 250 dollarsHolding cost = 10 dollars

A. To minimize the total annual cost

[tex]\sqrt{2ds/h} *\sqrt{p/(p-d)}[/tex]

annual demand = 80 x 5 x 50 = 20,000

sqrt(2x20000)x(250)/10) * sqrt200/(200-80)

1000 x 1.2909944

= 1290.99

The total units when approximated = 1291 units

B) The length of a production in days =

1291 / 200 = 6.455 days

C) What is the Inventory build up?

200 - 80 = 120 units per day

d. If the manager wants to run a cycle that needs 10 days per cycle there is going to be enough time for him to do so.

e. Other options that he has to explore are labor, capital and time factor.

d. Increasing the run size is going to increase the total annual cost by the amount

SY Manufacturers (SYM) is producing T-shirts in three colors: red, blue, and white. The monthly demand for each color is 3,487 units. Each shirt requires 0.75 pound of raw cotton that is imported from the Luft-Geshfet-Textile (LGT) Company in Brazil. The purchasing price per pound is $1.55 (paid only when the cotton arrives at SYM's facilities) and transportation cost by sea is $0.70 per pound. The traveling time from LGT’s facility in Brazil to the SYM facility in the United States is two weeks. The cost of placing a cotton order, by SYM, is $186 and the annual interest rate that SYM is facing is 32 percent of total cost per pound.

Annual ordering cost $
g. If the annual interest cost is only 5 percent, how will it affect the annual number of orders, the optimal batch size, and the average inventory?

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given the following :

Price per pound = $1.55

Raw material required = 0.75 pound

Transport cost by sea = $0.70

Monthly demand for each of the three colors = 3487

EOQ = √2DS / H

D = 3 * 12 * 3487 * 0. 75 = 94149

Total cost of purchase = 1.55 + 0.70 = 2.25

Setup cost (S) = $186

Holding cost = 32% * 2.25 = 0.72

EOQ = √(2*94149*186) / 0.72

= 6974.50

b. How frequently should the company order cotton?

Annual demand / EOQ

94149 / 6974.50

= 13.50 ;

12 months / 13.50 = 0.89 month

c. Assuming that the first order is needed on 1-Jul, when should SYM place the order?

Since lead time is 2 weeks, order should be made 2 weeks before : 17th June

d. How many orders will SYM place during the next year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Annual demand / EOQ

94149 / 6974.50

= 13.50 times

e. What is the resulting annual holding cost? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Holding cost * EOQ /2

0.75 * (6974.50/2) = 2615.44

f. What is the resulting annual ordering cost?

Annual ordering cost $

Ordering cost * number of orders

$186 * 13.50 = $2,511

Mathias Corporation manufactures and sells wire rakes. The rakes sell for $20 each. Information about the company's costs is as follows.

Variable manufacturing cost per unit $6
Variable selling and administrative cost per unit 2
Fixed manufacturing overhead per month $300,000
Fixed selling and administrative cost per month 600,000

Required:
a. Determine the company's monthly break-even point in units.
b. Determine the sales volume (in dollars) required for a monthly operating income of $1,200,000.
c. Compute the company’s margin of safety if its current monthly sales level is $2,500,000.
d. Estimate the amount by which monthly operating income will increase if the company anticipates a $100,000 increase in monthly sales volume.

Answers

Answer:

a. 75,000 units

b. $1,700,000

c. 0.40 or 40 %

d. $60,000

Explanation:

Break-even point is the level of activity where a firm neither makes a profit nor a loss.

Break-even point (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

Where,

Contribution per unit = Unit Selling Price  less Variable Costs per unit

                                   = $20 - $6 - $2

                                   = $12.00

Therefore,

Break-even point (units) = ($300,000 + $600,000) ÷ $12.00

                                        = 75,000 units

Sales (dollars) to reach target profit = (Fixed Costs + Target Profit) ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio

Where,

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales

                                           = $12.00 ÷ $20.00

                                           = 0.60

Therefore,

Sales (dollars) to reach target profit = ($300,000 + $600,000 + 1,200,000) ÷ 0.60

                                                           = $1,700,000

Margin of Safety = (Sales level - Break-even Sales level) ÷ Sales level

                            = ($2,500,000 - $1,500,000) ÷ $2,500,000

                            = 0.40 or 40 %

Consider a project to supply Detroit with 20,000 tons of machine screws annually for automobile production. You will need an initial $3,000,000 investment in threading equipment to get the project started; the project will last for four years. The accounting department estimates that annual fixed costs will be $850,000 and that variable costs should be $450 per ton; accounting will depreciate the initial fixed asset investment straight-line to zero over the four-year project life. It also estimates a salvage value of $280,000 after dismantling costs. The marketing department estimates that the automakers will let the contract at a selling price of $600 per ton. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $300,000. You require a return of 18 percent and face a marginal tax rate of 38 percent on this project.

Required:
a. What is the estimated OCF for this project?
b. Suppose you believe that the accounting department’s initial cost and salvage value projections are accurate only to within ±15 percent; the marketing department’s price estimate is accurate only to within ±10 percent; and the engineering department’s net working capital estimate is accurate only to within ±5 percent. What is your worst-case and best-case scenario for this project?

Answers

Answer:

a) expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $600 = $12,000,000 per year

initial investment = $3,000,000 + $300,000 = $3,300,000

contribution margin per unit = $600 - $450 = $150

total contribution margin = $150 x 20,000 = $3,000,000

annual fixed costs = $850,000

depreciation expense per year = $750,000

tax rate = 38%

required return rate = 18%

after tax salvage value = $280,000 x (1 - 38%) = $173,600

NCF₀ = -$3,300,000

NCF₁ = [($3,000,000 - $850,000 - $750,000) x 0.62] + $750,000 = $1,618,000

NCF₂ = $1,618,000

NCF₃ = $1,618,000

NCF₄ = $1,618,000 + $300,000 + $173,600 = $2,091,600

NPV = $1,296,797.61

IRR = 36.36%

b) our best case scenario:

expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $660 = $13,200,000 per year

initial investment = $2,550,000 + $285,000 = $2,835,000

contribution margin per unit = $660 - $450 = $210

total contribution margin = $210 x 20,000 = $4,200,000

annual fixed costs = $850,000

depreciation expense per year = $637,500

tax rate = 38%

required return rate = 18%

after tax salvage value = $322,000 x (1 - 38%) = $199,640

NCF₀ = -$2,835,000

NCF₁ = [($4,200,000 - $850,000 - $637,500) x 0.62] + $637,500 = $2,319,250

NCF₂ = $2,319,250

NCF₃ = $2,319,250

NCF₄ = $2,319,250 + $285,000 + $199,640 = $2,803,890

NPV = $3,655,445.13

IRR = 74.34%

our worst case scenario:

expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $540 = $10,800,000 per year

initial investment = $3,450,000 + $315,000 = $3,765,000

contribution margin per unit = $540 - $450 = $90

total contribution margin = $90 x 20,000 = $1,800,000

annual fixed costs = $850,000

depreciation expense per year = $862,500

tax rate = 38%

required return rate = 18%

after tax salvage value = $238,000 x (1 - 38%) = $147,560

NCF₀ = -$3,765,000

NCF₁ = [($1,800,000 - $850,000 - $862,500) x 0.62] + $862,500 = $916,750

NCF₂ = $916,750

NCF₃ = $916,750

NCF₄ = $916,750 + $315,000 + $147,560 = $1,379,310

NPV = -$1,060,302.54

What is a compound interest?

Answers

Answer:

Compound interest  is interest calculated on the initial principal, which also includes all of the accumulated interest from previous periods on a deposit or loan. Interest can be compounded on any given frequency schedule, from continuous to daily to annually.

Explanation:

Westerville Company accumulates the following data concerning a mixed cost, using units produced as the activity level.


Units Produced Total Cost

March 10,029 $16,724
April 8,765 15,312
May 10,480 17,492
June 8,600 14,860
July 9,293 15,781

Required:
a. Compute the variable cost per unit using the high-low method.
b. Compute the fixed cost elements using the high-low method.
c. Estimate the total cost if the company produces 8,170 units.

Answers

Answer & Explanation:

a. Using the high-low method, Variable cost per unit is;

[tex]= \frac{Highest Variable Cost - Lowest Variable Cost}{Highest number of units - Lowest number of Units} \\\\= \frac{17,492 - 14,860}{10,480 - 8,600} \\\\= $1.40[/tex]

= $1.40

b. Fixed Cost

= Total Cost at lowest unit - Variable costs at lowest unit

= 14,860 - (1.4 * 8,600)

= $‭2,820‬

c. Variable cost at 8,170 units + Fixed cost

= (8,170 * 1.4) + 2,820

= $‭14,258‬

The price of oil in international markets has dropped stunningly 60% in the past twelve months. Among the factors mentioned behind this drastic fall is the millions of barrels of oil produced in the US called shale oil and analyze:

a. The market struc ture for oil industry.
b. The supply and demand for oil in that market structure.
c. The pricing of oil at the presence of OPEC and the role of Speculators.
d. Why shale oil is a substitute for oil and explain the news in regard to the Cross elasticity of demand.

Answers

Answer:

a. The market structure for oil industry.

The market structure is monopolistic competition: there are many competitors, that hold some market power, but not as much as in oligopoly. The good that is offered is not as homogenous as in agricultural markets, and this is the reason why it is not a perfect-competition structure either.

b. The supply and demand for oil in that market structure.

Supply and demand is determined more or less freely in the market. Producers hold some market power so they charge a price that is a bit higher than the marginal cost, which would be the price in a perfect competition structure.

Consumers also have power in the demand curve because they have a fair number of options.

c. The pricing of oil at the presence of OPEC and the role of Speculators.

The OPEC forms an oligopoly, however, not all countries that produce oil are members of the OPEC, and this is why the market structure as a whole is not an oligopoly, but monopolistic competition.

Speculators can drive prices, but their influence is marginal in comparison to consumers as a whole.

d. Why shale oil is a substitute for oil and explain the news in regard to the Cross elasticity of demand.

Shale oil is a substitute because it offers the same service: providing energy, and serving as a chemical component of many products.

As for the cross elasticity of demand, this means that when the price of oil increases, the demand for shale oil increases, because people flock to the substitute.

Assume Merck (MRK) just announced that its next dividend will be $2, paid one year from now (you just missed the prior annual dividend). You expect the dividend will grow (after the $2 dividend) by 3% per year forever. Your required return is 10%. What are you willing to pay for a share of Merck stock

Answers

Answer:

$28.57

Explanation:

Current price = D1/(Required return-Growth rate)

D1 (Next dividend) = $2

Required return = 10% = 0.1

Growth rate = 3% = 0.03

Current price = $2/(0.1-0.03)

Current price = $2 / 0.07

Current price = $28.57143

Current price = $28.57

Hence, i will be willing to pay $28.57 for a share of Merck stock.

Which of the following is LEAST likely to be a cause of long-term secular slowness in increases in U.S. labor productivity? (a) transition of the economy increasingly toward services and away from manufacturing; (b) falling levels of the capital to labor ratio; (c) deglobalization and the shift of production from places outside the U.S. to places within the U.S.; (d) tighter labor markets and the infusion of more and more workers with below-average skills.

Answers

Answer:

(c) deglobalization and the shift of production from places outside the U.S. to places within the U.S.

Explanation:

The secular aspect of a trend is the main driver of that trend, and the secular aspect of the slowness in increases in U.S. labor productivity is not deglobalization and the shift of production from outside the U.S. to inside the U.S., since what has been happening in the latest decades is exactly the opposite.

Globalization has led many U.S. jobs, specially in manufacturing, to be shipped away from the country to other places where labor costs are cheaper, like China, Vietnam and Malasya.
