During the final or phaseout stage of the project life-cycle, __________ is the dominant goal of many project managers.

Assume that Plavor Brands, Inc. has 10,000,000 common shares outstanding that have a par value of $2 per share. The stock is cur

Kay [80]

Answer:

The multiple choices:

Earnings per share will remain the same since a stock dividend does not create an expense.

Earnings per share will increase because the dividend increases the value of the company.

Earnings per share will decrease because the number of shares outstanding will go up.

The impact cannot be determined without additional information on the new price per share.

The correct option is earnings per share will decrease because the number of shares outstanding will go up.

Explanation:

Initial EPS=earnings attributable to common stock/average weighted number of common stock

earnings attributable to common stock is $25,000,000

average weighted number of common stock is 10,000,000

Initial EPS=$25,000,000/10,000,000

=$2.5

EPS with 10% stock dividend :

average weighted number of common stock=10,000,000*(1+10%)

average weighted number of common stock=10,000,000*(1+0.1)

average weighted number of common stock=11,00,000

EPS with 10% stock dividend=$25,000,000/11,000,000

=$2.27

EPS reduced from $2.5 to $2.27 due to 10% stock dividend as there are more shares than previously.

a company budgets production of 15,000 solar panels in july. each unit requires 4 hours of direct labor at a rate of $20 per hou

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The Labor cost = Units Produced * Direct Labor hours per Unit * Direct Labor rate per Hour is <u>$ 1,200,000.</u>

= 15,000 * 4 * $20

= $ 1,200,000

Answer: $ 1,200,000

Production is the process of combining various tangible and intangible inputs (plans, knowledge) to produce things for consumption (outputs). It is the act of creating output, goods, or services that are of value and contribute to an individual's benefit.

An example of production is the manufacture of automobiles. A car is made up of parts. For example, rubber tires are added to a metal body to create a seat before the car leaves the assembly line. “Production is the organized activity of transforming resources into final products in the form of goods and services. The goal of production is to meet the demand for such transformed resources.

A dressmaker can sew 400 garments with 100 bolts of fabric and 1,500 hours of labor. Another dressmaker can sew 400 garments wit

faust18 [17]

Answer:

No, because the second method has lower total costs of production.

Explanation:

In a bid to make profits businesses must always compare different processes and choose the cheapest one.

This will eventually reflect in the profitability of the business.

In this instance let's get the cost of each process.

Fabric costs $110 a bolt and labor costs $20 an hour.

The first dress maker can sew 400 garments with 100 bolts of fabric and 1,500 hours of labour

Total cost = (100 bolts * 110) + (1500 * 20)

Total cost = $41,000

For the second dress maker he can sew 400 garments with 150 bolts of fabric and 1,000 hours of identical labour

Total cost = (150 *110) + (1000 * 20)

Total cost = $36,500

As can be seen the second dressmaker has a lower cost of production so he is more efficient than the first dress maker

Hybrid cars are touted as a "green" alternative; however,the financial aspects of hybrid ownership are not as clear. Consider th

lord [1]

Answer:

a)

the hybrid model initially costs $5,200 more than the regular model, plus you have another $330 in extra ownership costs per year. If you plan to own the hybrid car for 6 years, then you must recoup $5,200 / 6 = $866.67 + $330 = $1,196.67 per year.

the cost of driving 1 mile with the hybrid car = $3.60 / 27 = $0.1333

the cost of driving 1 mile with the regular model = $3.60 / 19 = $0.1895

you will save = $0.0562 per mile driven

you would need to drive $1,196.67 / $0.0562 = 21,293 miles per year to make the decision worth it

b)

if you only drive 15,500 miles per year, then you would need to save $0.0772 per mile

that would only result if gasoline's price was:

x/19 - x/27 = 0.0772

0.0526x - 0.037x = 0.0772

0.0156x = 0.0772

x = 0.0772 / 0.0156 = $4.95 per gallon

c)

you must first determine the present value of all additional expenses related to purchasing a hybrid:

year cash flow

0 -5,200

1 -330

2 -330

3 -330

4 -330

5 -330

6 -330

Using a financial calculator, the PV = -$6,637.24

now we must use an annuity formula to determine the annual savings required using a 10% discount rate and 6 periods:

annual savings = $6,637.24 / 4.3553 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 6 periods) = $1,523.95

so you must save $1,523.95 per year and that is equivalent to $1,523.95 / $0.0562 = 27,116.47 = 27,116 miles

d)

you also need to save $1,523.95, but you only drive 15,500 miles, so the savings per mile = $0.0983

x/19 - x/27 = 0.0983

0.0526x - 0.037x = 0.0983

0.0156x = 0.0983

x = 0.0983 / 0.0156 = $6.30 per gallon
