snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Diluted EPS = $3.0625

Explanation:

Earning per share (EPS) = earnings available to ordinary shareholders/ number of ordinary shares  possible after conversion

Conversion of preferred stock into common stock

= 16,000 × 5 = 80,000

Number of ordinary shares = common stock + converted preferred stock

= 160000+ 80000  =240,000 units

                                                                     $

Net Income                                             520,000

Preferred dividend (8%×100×16000)     (<u>128000) </u>

Earnings available to shareholders     <u>  392000 </u>

Number of shares                                   240,000

Diluted Earnings per share

You are considering two independent projects that have differing requirements.
Ugo [173]

Answer:

I will accept Project "B."

Explanation:

Though, Project B has a higher required Return on Investment ROI which is 13.5% but has a progressive increasing cash flow of Project B has an initial cost of $70,000 and cash flows of $15,000, $18,000, and $41,000 for Years 1 to 3, respectively.

<em>Analysis of the Cash Flow: </em>

<em>$18,000.00 - $15,000.00 = $3,000.00</em>

<em>$41,000.00 - $18000.00 = $23,000.00.</em>

<em>∴ with Initial Outlay of $70,000.00</em>

<em>$3,000.00 + $23,000.00 = $26,000.00</em>

<em>while </em>

<em>Project A has a retrogressive trend of cash flow of $21,000.00</em>

<em>∴$49,000.00 - $21,000.00 = $28,000.00</em>

<em>$28,000.00 - $12,000.00 = $16,000.00</em>

<em />

<em>Therefore comparing the two figures from Project A & B respectively:</em>

<em>Project A = $16,000.00</em>

<em>Project B = $26,000.00</em>

<em>It shows a deficit of $10,000.00 for Project B & surplus of $10,000.00 for Project A in the 3 years of required ROI.</em>

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is $339,480.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

We can calculate the PBO at Dec.31 by using following formula:

PBO Dec.31 = PBO on Jan 1,2021 + Service cost + Interest - pension benefits paid

Where, Interest = 11 % × $268,000 = $29,480

By putting the value we get

PBO, Dec.31 = $268,000 + $85,000 + $29,480 - $43,000

= $339,480

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Standard cost per pound= $34.21

Explanation:

The standard cost is the sum of direct material, direct labor, and total overhead. We will calculate each separate.

Direct material:

10 ounces cookie mix for $0.80= $8

5 ounces of milk chocolate for $4= $20

1 ounce of almonds for $12 the pound= $0.75

1 pound= 16 ounces

1 ounce= 0.0625*$12= $0.75

Direct labor:

1 minute in the mixing department

2 minutes in the baking department.

Mixing= $14.40* (1/60)= $0.24

Baking= $18*(2/60)= $0.6

Overhead:

Variable overhead is applied at a rate of $32.40 per DLH

Fixed overhead is applied at a rate of $60.00 per DLH.

Variable= 32.40 * (3/60)= $1.62

Fixed= 60* (3/60)= $3

Standard cost per pound= (8 + 20 + 0.75) + (0.24 + 0.6) + (1.62 + 3)= $34.21
