Answer:

b. 800,000

Explanation:

Step 1; Calcualate Excess Valuation of Surge in Piani's Consolidated Balance Sheet

Surge's balance sheet as at November 30, 2013 showed a book value of $8,000,000

However, Piani Purchased 400,000 Shares of Surge's  Outstanding Common Stock at $25 each. The total Cost therefore to Piani is

$25× 400,000= $10,000,000

The difference between Surge's book value and Piani's valuation of Surge is

Surge's value in Piani- Surge's book value

$10,000,000-$8,000,000= $2,000,000

Step 2: Calculate the Difference between the Excess Property Fair Value and the Step One Total to arrive at the Goodwill

Out of the $2,000,000; $1,200,000 represents the excess of the fair value of Surge's  Property, Plant and Equipment on November 30, 2013.

The Goodwill Value Therefore is

The difference in Surge's Stock Valuation- Excess Fair Value of Surge's Property, Plant and Equipment

= $2,000,000-$1, 200,000

=$800,000

Plan production for a four-month period: February through May. For February and March, you should produce to exact demand foreca
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The optimal production plan gives a total costs of $417,672 for the periods Feb to May

In Feb we will have to hire 26 workers to close the gap between demand and production from our 100 existing workers

In March however, we will have to lay them off (26 workers) to keep our production in line with demand.

In April, we are constrained to 100 workers, thus requiring that we run overtime. The overtime requirement is between 3,060 hours to max of 5,000 hours. Note that inspire of the hours chosen, demand for April still won't be fulfilled.

The best option will be the one that gives us last backlog because of the costs of backorder being extremely costly.

5,000 overtime hours in April is the best option .

In May, we are constrained to our 100 workers, meaning we will fulfill our back orders and also retain inventory in hand of 7,760 units.

The 3 pages attached show how the cost is worked out and the presentation as well.
