Answer:
1 and a half months worth of depreciation
Explanation:
The advantage of starting to depreciate an asset purchased on December is that next year you will be able to depreciate it for a full year under MACRS. Generally, when you purchase an asset, you have to use the half year convention and your depreciation expense for the first year will be low compared to the second year. But if you start depreciating your asset in the current year, even if you purchased it on December and the depreciation expense is not that significant, the next year you will be able to depreciate it at the second year rate.
Answer: a. increased paperwork at every step of the shipping process.
Explanation:
There is no excerpt attached but this should be the answer.
Having five different factories in China means that Holden Outwear would have to transport things to and fro all five factories including raw materials, intermediate goods and finished goods.
This represents a lot of shipping and shipping comes with paperwork. It would therefore be no surprise if the Holden Outwear is having to go through the bane of increased paperwork for manufacturing at five different factories.
Answer:
9%
Explanation:
WACC is the average cost of capital of the firm based on the weightage of the debt and weightage of the equity multiplied to their respective costs.
According to WACC formula
WACC = ( Cost of common stock x Weightage of common stock ) + ( Cost of preferred stock x Weightage of preferred stock ) + ( Cost of debt ( 1- t) x Weightage of debt )
As WACC is calculated using Market values.
Company Value = 100%
Value of Debt = 28%
Value of Debt = 100% - 28% = 72%
WACC = ( 10.54% x 72% ) + ( 5.27% x 28% )
WACC = 7.59% + 1.48% = 9.07% = 9% (rounded off)
<span>9.20 percent
Re= 0.036 +1.2(0.085) = 0.138
Re= [($1.10 x 1.02)$19] +.02 = 0.0790526
ReAverage = (0.138 + 0.0790526)/2 = 0.108526
WACC = (1/1.65)(0.108526) + (0.65/1.65)(0.098)(1-0.32) = 9.20 percent</span>
Answer:
A) $2.50 per direct labor-hour
Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)
where,
Estimated manufacturing overhead = Rent on factory building + Depreciation on factory equipment + Indirect labor + Production Supervisor's salary
= $15,000 + $8,000 + $12,000 + $15,000
= $50,000
And, the estimated direct labor hours is 20,000
So, the rate is
= $50,000 ÷ 20,000
= $2.5 per direct labor-hour
