Explanation:
The Internal Rate of Return(IRR) is the discount rate that brings the Net Present Value to zero. It is used to decide the viability of projects. The project is generally considered viable if the Cost of capital is less than the IRR.
You can use Excel to calculate the IRR;
= IRR(-15,800,6,500,7,800,6,300)
From the picture attached you can see that the IRR is 14.59%
Answer:
Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $5,000 Unfavorable(U).
Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = $20,000 Favorable (F).
Explanation:
Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Actual Fixed Overheads - Budgeted Fixed Overheads
= $305,000 - $300,000
= $5,000 Unfavorable(U).
Fixed Overheads Spending Variance = Fixed Overheads at Actual Production - Budgeted Fixed Overheads
= ($5.00 × 64,000) - $300,000
= $320,000 - $300,000
= $20,000 Favorable (F)
Answer: 4%
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Pension plan assets were $1,200 million at the beginning of the year and $1,252 million at the end of the year and that at the end of the year, retiree benefits paid by the trustee were $28 million and cash invested in the pension fund was $32 million.
Based on the above scenario, the percentage rate of return on plan assets goes thus:
Opening balance of plan assets 1200
Add:- Actual return = 48
Add:- contributions = 32
Less :- retiree benefits = -28
Closing balance of plan assets = 1252
It should be noted that the actual return is the balancing figure which is calculated as:
= 1252 + 28 - 1200 - 32
= 48
The percentage rate of return on plan assets will now be:
= 48/1200
=0.04
= 4%
