Answer:

Maple Leaf, Inc.

Inventory Turnover:

b. Greater than 2 but less than 3

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

1) Average inventories:

Raw materials     $2,500,000

Work-in-process  $1,000,000

Finished goods      $800,000

Total average inventory   $4,300,000

Cost of goods sold = $12,000,000

Inventory Turnover = Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory

= $12,000,000/$4,300,000

= 2.79 times

2) Inventory turnover is a financial ratio that shows the number of times in a year that inventory has been sold by Maple Leaf, Inc.  When it divides the number of days, say 360 days in a year, the ratio that comes out shows the number of days it takes Maple to sell its inventories.

You are evaluating a project that will cost $500,000, but is expected to produce cash flows of $125,000 per year for 10 years, w
boyakko [2]

Answer:

1. 4 years

2. No

Explanation:

Payback period calculates the amount of time to recoup the total investment made on a project. It calculates how long the cash flows generated from a project would cover the cost of the project.

The cost of the project is $500,000

Cash flows are $125,000 per year for 10 years.

In the first year, the cost of the project is reduced by $125,000 and becomes $375,000.

In the second year, the cost of the project is reduced by $125,000 and becomes $250,000.

In the third year, the cost of the project is reduced by $125,000 and becomes $125,000.

In the fourth year, the cost of the project is reduced by $125,000 and becomes $0.

The cost of the project is totally recouped in the 4th year. therefore, the payback period is 4 years.

But the company has a preferred payback period of 3 years ,therefore , the firm won't undertake the project because the payback period is more than 3 years.

A company settles a long-term note payable plus interest by paying $68,000 cash toward the principal amount and Page 565 $5,440
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$68,000

Explanation:

The long-term note payable is a debt that is formally established through a written agreement. An example of long-term note payable is a bank loan.

When the principal and the interests of a long-term note are paid, they represent Cash outflows from the business and are recorded in the Cashflow Statement. However, their treatments are different. Another way to put it is that they bring a reduction in the cash of the organisation.

The $68,000 principal amount paid is an outflow from the company that is recorded in the financing activity section of the Cash Flow Statement

The Interest of $5,440 is also an outflow from the business but it is reported in the operating activity section of the Cash Flow Statement. The reason for its report is that it is actually reported in the Organisation's Statement of Income as an expense for the year. It, therefore, qualifies as an operating activity expense or outflow.

Setler [38]

The question is incomplete as it is missing the figures. The complete question is,

Mercer, Inc. provides the following data for​ 2019:

Net Sales Revenue 598000

Cost of Goods Sold 350000

The gross profit as a percentage of net sales is​ ________. (Round your answer to two decimal​ places.)

Answer:

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = 0.4147 or 41.47%

Explanation:

The gross profit is a profit earned by a business through its trading activity. It is calculated by deducting the cost of goods sold from the net sales revenue and it is the profit earned by a business before deducting any operating and non operating expenses of the business.

Gross profit = Net Sales - Cost of goods sold

Gross Profit = 598000 - 350000   = $248000

The gross profit as a percentage of net sales is,

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = Gross profit / Net Sales

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = 248000 / 598000

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales = 0.4147 or 41.47%

NeTakaya
First, we calculate for the effective annual interest given the interest in the scenario. 
                          ieff = (1 + i/m)^m - 1
Substituting the values,
                          ieff = (1 + 0.04/12)^12 - 1 = 0.0407
The effective interest is equal to 4.07%. 

The future amount after 2 years,
                         F = ($6000) x (1.0407)^2 = $6498.86

fredd [130]

Answer:

The annualized cost of borrowing is 5.42%

Explanation:

The cost of borrowing is the finance charge which is the dollar amount of the loan that cost the person. Lenders usually charge what is referred to as the simple interest.

The formula to compute the same is as:

Principal  x rate x time = Interest

where

Principal amount is $3,000,000

Rate is not known

Time is 45 days, So time is number of days borrowed divided by number of days in a year

Time = 45 / 365 days

Time = 0.123

Interest = Par value - Selling Value

Interest = $3,000,000 - $2,980,000

Interest = $20,000

Putting the value above:

Rate = Interest / Principal  x Time

Rate = $20,000 / $3,000,000 x  0.123

Rate = $20,000 / $369,000

Rate = 5.42%
