Amanda Forsythe of Springfield, Missouri, must decide whether to buy or lease a car she has selected. She has negotiated a purch

ase price (gross capitalized cost) of $30,000 and could borrow the money to buy from her credit union by putting $3,300 down and paying $614.88 per month for 48 months at 5 percent APR. Alternatively, she could lease the car for 48 months at $330 per month by paying a $3,300 capitalized cost reduction and a $350 disposition fee on the car, which is projected to have a residual value of $12,400 at the end of the lease. Use the Run the Numbers worksheet to advise Amanda about whether she should finance or lease the car. Round your answers to the nearest cent.

Answer:

Since the cost of financing for leasing is higher than buying, Amanda she should finance the car.

Explanation:

Solution

Buy versus Lease problem:

Now,

Buy case

The Purchase price = Gross capitalized cost = $30,000

The Down payment = $3300

The  Present value of borrowing from credit union = 30,000 - 3300 = $26700

The EMI payment = $614.88,

No of months = 48, Annual percentage rate (APR) = 5%

The Monthly Percentage rate = 5%/12 = 0.4%

Then

We find future value at the end of 48 months

By applying Excel,

PV=26700, N=48, I/Y=0.4%, PMT=614.88

FV = -0.14079 which is approximate to Zero (given that EMI payment was rounded off to digit of  2 , FV has resulted slightly differ from zero)

So, at the end of four years, the car has no residual value as per the buy option.

The Finance charges of borrowing the car = Sum of all the EMI payments – principal payment

= $61488*48 - 26700 = $2924.724

The lease case

The  cost reduction  capital= $3300 (capitalized cost is paid by customers to decrease the rate of lease while leasing cars)

Fee disposition on the car = $350

The Residual value = $12,400

Then,

PV = $30,000 - $3300 = $26,700, EMI = $330, Number of months leased = 48

FV = Residual value – Disposition fee = $12,400 - $350 = $12,050

The cost of dollar of leasing = Sum of all the  payments of EMI - payment based on principal value at the end of the lease period = 330 * 48 – (26700 – 12050) = $1190

Therefore, since the cost of financing for leasing is higher than buying, Amanda she should finance the car.

Less: Outstanding checks                                                  <u>$  ( 2,482)</u>

Adjusted balance per bank statement                              $  20,642

Explanation:

The debit memorandum from the bank has to be adjusted from the cash book. This is only known from the bank statement

The interest earned on the bank balance is only known from the bank statement and has to be adjusted in the cash book

The correction of error needs to be corrected in the cash book.

The deposits in transit have been recorded in the cash book so no adjustment is needed there. The money has not been deposited so the bank statement balance has to be added thereto,

The checks issued by the Company, have been properly recorded in the cash book, however, since the checks have not been encashed the bank balance needs to be reduced to reconcile the balance.

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Total cost added including beginning inventory

Raw material = $136,000

Overheads = $180,960

Total = $316,960

Explanation:

As provided the opening Work in process units = 5,000 units

Units started during the period = 37,500 questions

Closing work in process = 8,000 units

That means units produced = opening + additions - closing

= 5,000 + 37,500 - 8,000 = 34,500 units

Provided cost of beginning inventory = $16,000 for raw material and $12,000 for overheads

Also it is 100% complete for raw material and 50% complete for overheads

That means raw material per unit = $16,000/5,000 = $3.20

And the overheads 100% = $12,000 \times 2 = $24,000

Overhead per unit = $24,000/5,000 = $4.80

Therefore, cost added during the period

Shall be

Raw material = 100% = 5,000 + 37,500 = 42,500 \times $3.20 = $136,000

Overheads = for 34,500 units 100% and remaining 8,000 = 40%

= 34,500 \times $4.80 + 8,000 \times $4.80 \times 40%

= $165,600 + $15,360

= $180,960

Total = $316,960

Why should employees be wary of participating in the grapevine in a business
Zielflug [23.3K]

First, we need to understand what grapevine means in business communication. Therefore, grapevine communication is a form of informal communication within a business organization, in other words, information is never accurate with grapevine, and this will certainly pose a threat to any business, remember, effective communication is an integral part of any organization.

Below are some of the reasons why managers should be wary of grapevine communication


1) Communications through grapevines are often not trustworthy as it is an unofficial way of communication.

2) It might cause a hostile environment between lower level staff and the executives, for instance, a colleague tells you that the boss is not happy with your work, or that your boss said he doesn't like you, this might be false, and it might affect your attitude towards your boss.

3) It can lead to discouraging news, which can then affect productivity.  Imagine a story flying around the office, that management wants to retrench workers or wants to approve salary cut, now if this information is false, so many people within the lower level staff, will get discouraged, or get unnecessarily worried, this will certainly affect there work rate.


 Managers are often advised to be wary of grapevine within an organization, however, managers should note that grapevine cannot be eliminated from any organization, but it can be minimized if managers engage in effective communication with their employees.
