Stockmaster Corporation has two manufacturing departments--Forming and Assembly. The company used the following data at the begi

nning of the year to calculate predetermined overhead rates: Forming Assembly Total Estimated total machine-hours (MHs) 5,000 5,000 10,000 Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead cost $27,000 $10,500 $37,500 Estimated variable manufacturing overhead cost per MH $1.10 $2.80During the most recent month, the company started and completed two jobs--Job C and Job H. There were no beginning inventories. Data concerning those two jobs follow: Job C Job HDirect materials $11,200 $7,500Direct labor cost $21,900 $7,800Forming machine-hours 3,400 1,600Assembly machine-hours 2,000 3,000Assume that the company uses a plantwide predetermined manufacturing overhead rate based on machine-hours and uses a markup of 40% on manufacturing cost to establish selling prices. The calculated selling price for Job C is closest to:a. $25,192b. $88,172c. $62,980d. $96,989

Answer:

Explanation:

Forming

Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead  $27,000

Estimated variable manufacturing overhead ($1.10*5,000)  $5,500

Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost  $32,500

Assembly

Estimated fixed manufacturing overhead  $10,500

Estimated variable manufacturing overhead ($2.80 × 5,000)  14,000

Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost  $24,500

Now we need to add these two numbers ($32,500 + $24,500 = $57,000) in order to identify plantwide predetermined manufacturing overhead rate

Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost  $57,000

Estimated total machine hours  10,000

Predetermined overhead rate  $5.70  [57,000/10,00]

The overhead applied to Job C:

Overhead applied to job C = Predetermined overhead rate x Machine-hours incurred by C

= $5.70 * (3,400 + 2,000)

= $5.70 x (5,400)

= $30,780

Job C’s manufacturing cost:

Direct materials  $11,200

Direct labor cost  $21,900

Manufacturing overhead $30,780

Total manufacturing cost  $63,880

The selling price for Job C:

Total manufacturing cost  $63,880

Markup (40%)  25,552

Selling price  $89,432

A. What is the significance of voting rights to the ordinary shareholders? What is a proxy? Why do proxy fights occur?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

a. What is the significance of voting rights to the ordinary shareholders? What is a proxy? Why do proxy fights occur?

Voting rights, to ordinary shareholders, is the upside of holding common stock, with the downside being that they have less preference of payment than bondholders, and preferred stock holders.

A proxy is a group of shareholder activists who attempt at enacting a particular change within the company. Proxy fights occur because proxies often meet resistance from the firm's current board.

b. Briefly explain the factors that influence the planning of the capital structure in practice.

There are many factors that influence the planning of the capital structure. For example, if interest rates are low, the board may plan for more debt and less equity, while the opposite would occur if interest rates are high.

In general terms, boards and managers tend to like debt because they represent the chance of leveraging the company, and a high leverage can increase returns to shareholders by a large margin if the economic performance of the firm is good.

c. ‘Bonus shares represent simply a division of corporate pie into a large number of pieces.’

Bonus shares are stock issued in place of dividends. In other words, when profits are distributed, stockholders get even more stock, instead of cash. Bonus shares, therefore, increase the amount of the firm's stock by the value of current profit, slicing the corporate pie into a larger number of pieces.

Which one of the following statements concerning net working capital is correct?
Luda [366]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Net working assets is current assets less current liabilities

Current assets include cash, cash equivalents and inventory

Examples of current liabilities include accounts payables, short-term debt, accrued expenses, and dividends payable

When inventory is purchased with cash, inventory increases and cash reduces, thus there is no change in net working capital

Net working capital can be negative or positive.

If current assets is greater than current liabilities, it would be positive, if this is not the case, it would be negative.

A monopoly is considering selling several units of a homogeneous product as a single package. a typical consumer's demand for th
just olya [345]

Answer:

A. 15 units

B. $130

Explanation:

In order to solve this, we need to use the profit maximization condition for monopoly.

MR = MC will give us the optimal quantity and price for the monopolist.

The consumer's demand for the product is:

Qd = 80 - 0.5P

Therefore, we have:

P = (80 / 0.5) - (Qd / 0.5)

P = 160 - 2Qd

Recall that, Total Revenue:

TR = P * Q

So, in this case TR = 160Q - 2Q^2

MR = d(TR) / dQ = 160 - 4Q

Now, MR = MC

160 - 4Q = 100

4Q = 160 - 100

4Q = 60

Q = 60 / 4

Q = 15 units.

Now, P =160 - 2Q

P = 160 - 2(15)

P = 160 - 30 = 130

The optimal number of units to be placed in a package will therefore be 15 units while the firm should charge $130 for this package.
