trasher [3.6K]3 years ago

The answer is when global demand for exclusive and private-label footwear is so far under global plant volume that it will be intolerable for most all companies to cost-effectively operate their plants at full volume for many years to come. If the prediction shows that global demand is far under global volume, then it isn't conceivable for everyone to sell everything. In this circumstance the most liquid and solvent company will appear ahead, maybe a company could hold onto volume and ferociously hold onto market share.

A flying squid (family Ommastrephidae) is able to "jump" off the surface of the sea by taking water into its body cavity and the
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer: V=7.43m/s

d =2.82m

Explanation:

a) For the first part, the initial velocity immediately after ejection, by using momentum conservation

before ejection, the momentum of the squid/water system is zero

there are no external forces acting on the system at the moment of ejection, so we can find the speed of the squid by noting

momentum before ejection = momentum after ejection

0 = M1U + M2V

0=-0.26 kg x 20 m/s + 0.7kg x V

where the speed of the water is taken as the negative sign, and V is the speed of the squid right after ejection, solving for V we get

V=7.43m/s

B. we use the equation vf^²=v0^²+2ad

where vf=final velocity = 0 since velocity is zero at motion's apex

v0=initial velocity = 7.43m/s

a = acceleration = -9.8m/s/s

d=height (to be found)

Therefore,

0=7.43^²+2(-9.8)d

Mathematically, it becomes

d=7.43^²/2(9.8)= 2.82m

d = 2.82m

Net Present Value and Competing Projects For discount factors use Exhibit 12B.1 and Exhibit 12B.2. Spiro Hospital is investigati
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

1. Assuming a discount rate of 14%, compute the net present value of each piece of equipment.

  • Puro equipment: $255,203
  • Briggs equipment: $318,944

2. A third option has surfaced for equipment purchased from an out-of-state supplier. The cost is also $560,000, but this equipment will produce even cash flows over its 5-year life. What must the annual cash flow be for this equipment to be selected over the other two

  • $256,021

Explanation:

Year      Puro Equipment       Briggs Equipment

0             -$560,000                    -$560,000

1               $320,000                      $120,000

2              $280,000                      $120,000

3              $240,000                      $320,000

4               $160,000                      $400,000

5               $120,000                      $440,000

I used an excel spreadsheet to calculate the NPVs

the PV of the third equipment's annual cash flow should be higher than $878,944  (PV of Brigg's cash flows = $560,000 + $318,944)

now I used a annuity table: annuity factor for 5 years and 14% is 3.4331

cash flow x 3.4331 ≥ $878,944

cash flow ≥ $878,944 / 3.4331 = $256,021

Preble Company manufactures one product. Its variable manufacturing overhead is applied to production based on direct labor-hour
geniusboy [140]

The materials quantity variance for March for Preble Company, which manufactures a product, is <u>$96,000 Unfavorable</u>.

<h3>What is a materials quantity variance?</h3>

A material quantity variance shows the difference between the actual materials consumed and the budgeted amount in production.

Computing the materials quantity variance helps management to determine the production efficiency.

The materials quantity variance can be computed using the following formula:

Materials Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity Units – Actual Quantity Units ) ✕ Standard Cost Per Unit.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Planned production and sales units = 32,000 units

Actual production and sales units = 37,000 units

<h3>Standard Costs:</h3>

Direct materials: 4 pounds at $8 per pound  $ 32

Direct labor: 2 hours at $16 per hour                 32

Variable overhead: 2 hours at $6 per hour        12

Total standard cost per unit                             $ 76

<h3>Actual Costs:</h3>

Purchase of raw materials = 160,000 pounds

Cost of purchase per pound = $7.40

Direct labor hours = 67,000 hours

Direct labor rate = $17 per hour

Total variable manufacturing overhead = $422,100

Materials Quantity Variance = (Standard Quantity Units – Actual Quantity Units ) ✕ Standard Cost Per Unit.

= (37,000 x 4 - 160,000) x $8

= $96,000 Unfavorable

Thus, the materials quantity variance for March for Preble Company is <u>$96,000 Unfavorable</u>.

The stock in Bowie Enterprises has a beta of 1.14. The expected return on the market is 12.20 percent and the risk-free rate is
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Required return on stock = 13.44%

Explanation:

We know,

The required return on the company's stock = Risk-free rate of return + (Expected return on the market - Risk-free rate of return) x beta

= R_{f} + (R_{m} - R_{f}) x b

Given,

Beta, β = 1.14;

Risk-free return, R_{f} = 3.33%

Return on the market, R_{m} = 12.20%

Putting the numbers on the formula, we can get,

The required return on the company's stock = 3.33% + (12.20% - 3.33%) x 1.14

required return on stock = 3.33% + 10.1118%

required return on stock = 13.44% (Rounded to two decimal places)

Less : Dividend Received ($22,000)

($6,000+$8,000+$8,000)

Less : Patent Amortization ($6,000)

($2,000 * 3 years)

Balance in Investment in Scope Products Account as on Dec. 31 20X8 $98,000

Therefore the balance of the Investment in Scope account on Pistol balance sheet at December 31, 20X8, after all required equity method entries have been recorded is $98,000
