Our company manufactures and sells calculators for $80 each. A major University has offered us $55 per calculator for a one-time

order of 500 calculators. Our costs to manufacture a calculator include: direct materials, $25 per unit; direct labor, $20 per unit; variable factory overhead, $15 per unit; and fixed manufacturing overhead, $12 per unit. Assume that we have excess capacity and the special order will not affect regular sales. What is the change in operating income that would result from accepting this special sales order?

Effect on income= $2,500 decrease

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A major University has offered us $55 per calculator for a one-time order of 500 calculators.

direct materials= $25 per unit

direct labor= $20 per unit

variable factory overhead= $15 per unit

<u>Because there is an unused capacity and it is a special offer, we will not take into account the fixed costs.</u>

<u></u>

Unitary cost= 25 + 20 + 15= $60

Effect on income= 500*(55 - 60)

Effect on income= $2,500 decrease

ioda

Answer:

After tax cost of debt is 7.69%

Explanation:

The after tax cost of debt can be computed by first of all determining the pre-tax cost of debt .

The pre-tax of debt is the yield to maturity computed using the rate formula in excel as follows:

=rate(nper,pmt.-pv,fv)

nper is the number of times the bond would pay coupon interest over the entire bond life ,which is 15 years multiplied by 2=30

pmt is the semi-annual interest which is $1000*8.9%/2=$44.5

pv is the current price of the bond at $962

fv is the face value of the bond at $1000

=rate(30,44.5,-962,1000)=4.69%

this is the semi-annul yield ,annual yield is 9.38%

The 9.38% is the pretax

after tax cost of debt=9.38%*(1-0.18)=7.69%

0.18 is the 18% tax rate

The Federal Reserve purchases ​$8 million in U.S. Treasury bonds from a bond​ dealer, and the​ dealer's bank credits the​ dealer
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The bank will be able to lend:

$42,105,263 ($8 million/ 0.19)

Explanation:

The above amount which the bank can lend from the $8 million received from the Federal Reserve for a customer is a function of $8 million deposit in a customer's account and the reserve ratio.  This is called the money multiplier.

The money multiplier is the amount of money that banks generate with each dollar of reserves. Reserves is the amount of deposits that the Federal Reserve requires banks to hold and not lend.  The level of Reserves and deposit liabilities determine the amount a bank can lend out.

The process by which banks create more money than the physical money is called money creation.  This shows that a bank creates more money in the economy through its lending activities.

Life insurance companies tend to invest in long-term assets such as loans to manufacturing firms to build factories or to real e
andriy [413]

Answer:

The answers are:

  1. automobile insurers
  2. life insurance companies
  3. a life insurance policy
  4. longer
  5. longer-term

Explanation:

When a company may need money in a short notice (like auto insurers), they will need to make liquid investments. That means that they can turn their investments into cash very rapidly. Since T-bills are traded all the time, they are very liquid investments, although they aren't very lucrative investments.

On the other hand, companies that know that they will not be needing a lot money promptly (life insurance), can afford to invest in projects with a longer life span that can be more profitable also. Usually liquid investments have smaller rates of return, while long term investments have higher rates of return.
