musickatia [10]

Answer:

This is an example of multiple pricing.

Explanation:

Sometimes if you add all the extra charges, like shipping and handling, you might realize that the product being offered by the infomercial is actually more expensive than similar products that you can buy on retail stores or websites.

Infomercials do this on purpose, they use low selling prices as bait, but then they charge very high fees for processing your order and shipping it.

A benchmark market value index is comprised of three stocks. yesterday the three stocks were priced at $12, $20, and $60. the nu
Olenka [21]

Answer: The one day rate of return on the stock is 1.49%

We arrive at the answer in the following manner:

First we need to calculate yesterday's and today's index values.

For that we need to find weights of each day based on market capitalization.

Market Capitalization _{ a stock} = Market Price * No .of outstanding shares

The weight of a company in the index is calculated by dividing the market capitalization  of a company by the total market capitalization of all the companies whose shares are a part of the index.

Weight_{Company A} =\frac{Mkt Cap of company A}{Total Market cap}

Then, we multiply the share price of each company with their respective weights and find the total to arrive at the index value for one day.

<u>Yesterday's Index Value</u>

Stock        Price         No. of shares      Mkt Cap  Weight  Weight*Price

A               12               600000        7200000      0.25      2.96 (0.25*12)    

B               20               500000       10000000    0.34      6.85(0.34*20)

C               60               200000       <u>12000000</u>     <u>0.41</u>      <u>24.66  </u>(0.41*60)

Total                                                 29200000     1.00      34.47

We calculate the weight for stock A as follows:

Weight_{A} =\frac{72,00,000}{2,92,00,000} = 0.2466 = 0.25

We calculate the weights of the remaining stocks in a similar manner.

Please note that the sum total of all weights must add up to 1.

The sum total of the last column (Price * Weight) is yesterday's index value.

We repeat the same steps with today's market price to arrive at today's index value.

<u>Today's index Value</u>

Stock        Price   No. of shares       Mkt Cap     Weight    Weight*Price

A               16               600000       96,00,000     0.31        4.95 (0.31*16)    

B               18               500000       90,00,000     0.29       5.23  (0.29*18)

C               62               200000    <u>1,24,00,000</u>     <u>0.40</u>     <u>24.80</u>(0.40*62)

Total                                                3,10,00,000     1.00     34.98

<u>One-day Rate of Return</u>

We can calculate the one day rate of return on the index as follows:

Rate of return = [\frac{(Today's index value - Yesterday's index value}{Yesterday's index value}) * 100

Rate of Return = ( \frac{34.98 - 34.47}{34.47}) * 100

Rate of return = (\frac{0.51}{34.47}) *100

Rate of return = 0.01494 or 1.49%

During 2017, Fanning Manufacturing Company incurred $64,400,000 of research and development (R&amp;D) costs to create a long-lif
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Since the question involves multiple steps, please refer to the explanation section for a point-wise answer

Explanation:

(a) Imagine a "stream" to mean the flow of the product from the inception of the idea to the sale of the final output. Therefore, upstream and downstream costs are those are those that club various segments of cost during the manufacturing & selling process on the basis of when the cost is incurred in this cycle. Up-stream costs include the costs incurred before the beginning of the manufacturing process. Therefore, product design, structuring of packaging, R&D are all considered upstream costs. Downstream costs are incurred during the production process and the subsequent sale and customer service expenses. In the context of the question, Upstream costs for Fanning Manufacturing would be R&D expenses. Downstream cost include Manufacturing costs, packaging, shipping, and sales commission.

(b) Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) would be the amount of units sold (i.e $407,000) multiplied by the manufacturing costs ($66). Therefore, COGS would be $26,862,000.

A total of 446,000 units were produced which means the inventory costs (units x manufacturing costs) would be $29,436,000. Out of this $26,862,000 were expensed out as COGS. Therefore, ending inventory balance would be the differential amount of $2,574,000.

(c) Fanning wants to earn a profit margin of 30% of the total cost of developing, making and distributing the batteries. Therefore the company wants a profit equivalent to 30% of all the costs incurred from R&D to sales commission. Total cost is COGS+Selling, Packaging, shipping, sales commission + R&D which is $94,518,000. 30% of this is $28,355,400. So, sales revenue should be this amount PLUS all the costs incurred which would be $122,873,400 (<em>this is assuming no other expenses like interest and taxes and other income).</em>

Sales per unit (or sales price) would therefore be $122,873,400/407,000 units sold = 301.9 ≅ $302 per unit

(d)

Sales                                                                 122,914,000.00  

Cost of Goods Sold                                         (26,862,000.00)

Gross Profit                                                        96,052,000.00  

Selling, General & Administrative Expenses  (3,256,000.00)  

Research & Development                                (64,400,000.00)

Operating Profit/Net Profit                                 28,396,000.00  

Note: <u>Again, this is assuming no other income and expenses. Since interest and tax expenses are assumed to be zero, operating income is equal to net income</u>
