Answer:

before tax corportate bond equivalent: 11.15%

Explanation:

The municipal bond are tax-free making them more attractive than normal corporate bonds.

thus, the municipal bond rate should be compare with the after tax rate of a corporate bond:

before tax rate ( 1 - tax rate) = after tax rate

<u>For this case:</u>

the after tax rate is 7.25%

and the tax bracket is 35%

before taxes ( 1 - 0.35) = 0.0725

0.0725/.65 = 0,1115384 = <em>11.15%</em>

Total Company North South Sales $ 600,000 $ 400,000 $ 200,000 Variable expenses 360,000 280,000 80,000 Contribution margin 240,0
seraphim [82]

Answer:

1. Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= $425,000

2. Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $200,000

3. Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $100,000

Explanation:

1. Computation of the companywide break-even point in dollar sales

First step is to find the Contribution margin ratio

Using this formula

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sales

Contribution margin ratio:

Total company: ($240,000/$600,000)=0.4

North : ($120,000/$400,000)=0.4

South : ($120,000/$200,000)=0.6

Now let compute the Company wide break-even point in dollar sales using this formula

Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio

Let plug in the formula

Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= ($120,000 + $50,000) / 0.4

Company wide break-even point in dollar sales= $425,000

2. Computation for the break-even point in dollar sales for the North region using this formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for North region = Traceable fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio

Let plug in the formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $60,000 / 0.3

Break-even point in dollar sales for North region= $200,000

3. . Computation for the break-even point in dollar sales for the South region.

Using this formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = Traceable fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio

Let plug in the formula

Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $60,000 / 0.6

Break-even point in dollar sales for South region = $100,000

A mining company owns two mines, each of which produces three grades (high, medium, and low) of ore. The company has a contract
sashaice [31]

Answer:

They should operate Mine 1 for 1 hour and Mine 2 for 3 hours to meet the contractual obligations and minimize cost.

Explanation:

The formulation of the linear programming is:

Objective function:

C=200M_1+160M_2

Restrictions:

- High-grade ore: 6M_1+2M_2\geq12

- Medium-grade ore: 2M_1+2M_2\geq8

- Low-grade ore: 4M_1+12M_2\geq24

- No negative hours: M_1,M_2\geq0

We start graphing the restrictions in a M1-M2 plane.

In the figure attached, we have the feasible region, where all the restrictions are validated, and the four points of intersection of 2 restrictions.

In one of this four points lies the minimum cost.

Graphically, we can graph the cost function over this feasible region, with different cost levels. When the line cost intersects one of the four points with the lowest level of cost, this is the optimum combination.

(NOTE: it is best to start with a low guessing of the cost and going up until it reaches one point in the feasible region).

The solution is for the point (M1=1, M2=3), with a cost of C=$680.

The cost function graph is attached.

Bates Company plans to add a new item to its line of consumer product offerings. Two possible products are under consideration.
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

differential revenue = $7

so correct option is a.$7

Explanation:

given data

Product A costs = $6

contribution margin = $3

Product B costs = $12

contribution margin = $4

to find out

the differential revenue for this decision

solution

we get here the differential revenue for this decision that is express

so first we get here selling price for both product that is

selling price product A = Product A costs + contribution margin

selling price product A  = $6 + $3 = $9

and

selling price product B   = $12 + $4 = $16

so now we get differential revenue that is

differential revenue = selling price product B - selling price product A

differential revenue = $16 - $9

differential revenue = $7

so correct option is a.$7
