Garcia Industries has sales of $167,500 and accounts receivable of $18,500, and it gives its customers 25 days to pay. The indus

try average DSO is 27 days, based on a 365-day year. If the company changes its credit and collection policy sufficiently to cause its DSO to fall to the industry average, and if it earns 8.0% on any cash freed-up by this change, how would that affect its net income, assuming other things are held constant? Assume all sales to be on credit.

Answer:

the company can earn an additional $488.80 on interest

Explanation:

total sales on credit = $167,500

interest rate = 8%

accounts receivable = $18,500

sales per day = $167,500 / 365 days = $458.90 per day

days sales outstanding (DSO) = ($18,500 / $167,500) x 365 days = 40

average industry DSO = 27 days

to determine the value of accounts receivable to match the industry's DSO:  (AR / $167,500) x 365 = 27

AR = 27 x ($167,500 / 365) = $12,390

So accounts receivable must lower by ⇒ $18,500 - $12,390 = $6,110

that $6,110 should earn 8% interest = $6,110 x 0.08 = $488.80

As part of the process, the HR department's first step should be to identify that the sales representatives need technical training. It was said in the statement above that most of the new workers have a poor performance although they have a vast experience in sales. Most probably, it would be because they are unfamiliar with the products of the said company and they would lack the technical knowledge needed to do their job well. As an HR staff, you should be able to see that these employees would need some kind of training and education about the products of the company.

According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model, investors are primarily concerned with portfolio risk, not the risks of individual
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

A) True

Explanation:

The purpose of creating a portfolio is to diversify investment and achieve risk reduction as famously conveyed by the proverb, "do not put all the eggs in a single basket".

The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) was developed by William Sharpe and John Lintner. The model explains the relationship between expected return of an investor and the investment risk.

Return earned by a portfolio is the weighted average return of the individual stock returns.

CAPM helps calculate expected return of an investor by the following formula:

Return = R_{f} \ + B(R_{m}\ -\ R_{f}  )

wherein, R_{f} = Risk free rate of return yielded by treasury bonds

              B = Beta, which is a coefficient which conveys the degree of responsiveness of security return in relation to the market return.

             R_{m}= Return which can be earned on market portfolio

Thus, the relevant risk with respect to a portfolio refers to an individual stock's share of contribution to the portfolio risk.

Martinez Manufacturing applies overhead based on direct labor hours. The company estimates that their overhead for the year will
aev [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is C: underapplied by $2,500

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Martinez Manufacturing applies overhead based on direct labor hours.

The company estimates that their overhead for the year will be $180,000 and that they will use 72,000 direct labor hours.

During the year, Martinez Manufacturing used 75,000 direct labor hours and actual overhead costs were $190,000

We need to calculate if the overhead was under or over applied and in what amount.

Predetermined overhead rate= total estimated manufacturing overhead for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined overhead rate= 180000/72000= $2.5 an hour

Now, we can calculate the amount of overhead allocated:

Overhead allocated= 75000 hours*2.5= $187,500

Over/under applied= actual overhead - allocated overhead= 190,000 - 185,500= $2,500 underapplied
