Polaski Company manufactures and sells a single product called a Ret. Operating at capacity, the company can produce and sell 34

,000 Rets per year. Costs associated with this level of production and sales are given below:
Unit Total
Direct materials $ 25 $ 850,000
Direct labor 6 204,000
Variable manufacturing overhead 3 102,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead 7 238,000
Variable selling expense 2 68,000
Fixed selling expense 6 204,000
Total cost $ 49 $ 1,666,000

The Rets normally sell for $54 each. Fixed manufacturing overhead is $238,000 per year within the range of 25,000 through 34,000 Rets per year.

Assume that due to a recession, Polaski Company expects to sell only 29,000 Rets through regular channels next year. A large retail chain has offered to purchase 7,000 Rets if Polaski is willing to accept a 16% discount off the regular price. There would be no sales commissions on this order; thus, variable selling expenses would be slashed by 75%. However, Polaski Company would have to purchase a special machine to engrave the retail chainâs name on the 7,000 units. This machine would cost $14,000. Polaski Company has no assurance that the retail chain will purchase additional units in the future. Determine the impact on profits next year if this special order is accepted.

Answer:

$69020

Explanation:

Selling price -$54

Incremental selling price =54*(1-0.16)=45.36

Incremental sales - 45.36*7000= 317520

Contribution -

Direct materials = 24*7000 =     (168000)

Direct labor = 6*7000 =              (42000)

Variable manufacturing =           (21000)     (3*7000)

Variable selling price =                (3500)        2*(1-0.75)

Total contribution =                      83020

Additional cost of machine       (14,000)

Incremental profit                        69,020

Suppose you buy some stock in the Alpha Corporation at a price of $45.95 per share. 410 days later you sell the stock for $48.27
kondaur [170]

Answer: 6.79%

Explanation:

The holding period return is:

= (Current price - Cost price + Dividend) / Cost price

= (48.27 - 45.95 + 1.20) / 45.95

= 7.66%

The annualized return is:

= ( ( 1 + holding period return) ^ number of days in a year/ number of days stock was held - 1)

= ( ( 1 + 7.66%) ³⁶⁵ / ⁴¹⁰ - 1)

= 6.79%
