zvonat [6]

Answer:

Total equivalent units= 135,000 units

Explanation:

The weighted average method blends the costs and units of the previous period with the costs and units of the current period.

Conversion costs:

Units completed and transferred out= 133,000 units

Ending WIP= 10,000*0.2= 2,000 units

Total equivalent units= 135,000 units

Filer Manufacturing has 8 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $74, and the book value per sha

GaryK [48]

Answer:

10.45%

Explanation:

First find the cost of equity for the company

RE = [$4.60*(1.05) / $74] + 0.05

RE = 0.1153, or 11.53%

Then find the YTM on both bond issues

P1 = $950 = $45*PVIFA(R%,48) + $1,000*PVIF(R%,48)

R = 4.767%

YTM = 4.767%×2

YTM = 9.53%

P2 = $1,080 = $50*PVIFA(R%,16) + $1,000*PVIF(R%,16)

R = 4.298%

YTM = 4.298%×2

YTM = 8.60%

Total Debt = 0.95($80,000,000) + 1.08*($60,000,000)

Total Debt = $140,800,000

Weight of D1 = 76,000,000 / 140,800,000

Weight of D1 = 0.5398

Weight of D2 = 64,800,000 / 140,800,000

Weight of D2 = 0.4602

Weighted Average after-tax cost of debt

RD = (1 – 0.35)*[(0.5398)*(0.0953) + (0.4602)(0.086)]

RD = .0592, or 5.92%

Market value of equity = 8,000,000*($74) = $592,000,000

Market value of debt = $140,800,000

Total market value of the company = $592,000,000 + 140,800,000 = $732,800,000

Weights of equity and debt

E/V = $592,000,000 / $732,800,000 = 0.8079

D/V = 1−E/V = 0.1921

WACC = 0.8079(0.1153) + 0.1921(0.0592)

WACC = 0.1045, or 10.45%

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Contribution margin= $41,250

Contribution margin per unit= $10

Contribution margin ratio= 0.25 or 25%

Breakeven Point ($)=$66,000

Breakeven Point (units)=1,650 units

Explanation:

Contribution margins = sales price - variable costs

The sales price is $40 per unit.

variable costs per units will be total variable cost / total units

total variable costs will be 75% of sales

= 4,125 x $40

=$165,000

variable cost will be 75/100 x 165,000

=0.75 x 165,000

=$123,750

variable cost per item is $123, 750 / 4125

variable cost per unit is $30

(Total)Contribution margin is sales - variable costs

=$165,000 - $123,750

=$41,250

Contribution margin per unit will be $40- $30

Contribution margin per unit is $10

Contribution margin ration =total revenue - variable costs

total revenue

= $165,000 - $123,750

$165,000

=41,240/ 165,000

=0.25

=As a percentage, contribution margin ratio = 25%

Break-even point using contribution margin technique

Break-even in units = fixed cost/ contribution margin per unit

= $16,500/ 10

=1650 units

Break-even in dollars= Breakeven units x selling price

=1650 x 40

=$66,000

Answer:

18.75%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what The simple rate of return would be closest to:

First step is to calculate the Depreciation using this formula

Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/ life

Let plug in the formula

Depreciation= ($50,000-$5000)/8 years

Depreciation=$40,000/8

Depreciation=$5,625

Second step is to calculate the annual net cash savings:

Annual cash savings $15,000

Less: Depreciation ($5,625)

(45,000/8 = $5,625)

Annual net cash savings $ 9,375

($15,000-$5,625)

Now let calculate the Simple rate of return

Using this formula

Simple rate of return = Annual net cash savings / Initial investment

Let plug in the formula

Simple rate of return= $9,375/$50,000

Simple rate of return= 18.75%

Therefore The simple rate of return would be closest to:18.75%
