Factor Company is planning to add a new product to its line. To manufacture this product, the company needs to buy a new machine

at a $487,000 cost with an expected four-year life and a $23,000 salvage value. All sales are for cash, and all costs are out-of-pocket, except for depreciation on the new machine. Additional information includes the following:
Expected annual sales of new product $1,910,000
Expected annual costs of new product:
Direct materials 495,000
Direct labor 674,000
Overhead (excluding straight-line depreciation on new machine) 335,000
Selling and administrative expenses 159,000
Income taxes 38%
Required:
1. Compute straight-line depreciation for each year of this new machine's life.
2. Determine expected net income and net cash flow for each year of this machine's life.
3. Compute this machine's payback period, assuming cash flows occur evenly throughout each year.
4. Compute this machine's accounting rate of return, assuming income is earned evenly throughout each year.
5. Compute net present value, using a discount rate of 6% and that assuming that cash flows occur at each year-end.

Answer:

1. $116,000

2. Net Income = $81,220 and Net Cash flow = $247,000

3. The payback period is 1 year and 11 months .

4. 31.85 %

5. $368,881.09

Explanation:

Straight Line Method charges a fixed amount of depreciation expense over the life of an asset.

Depreciation Expense = (Cost - Residual Value) / Estimated Useful Life

                                     = ($487,000 -  $23,000) / 4

                                     = $116,000

Net Income = Sales - Expenses

Sales                                                          $1,910,000

Less Expenses :

Direct materials                                         ($495,000)

Direct labor                                                ($674,000)

Overhead ( $335,000 + $116,000)           ($451,000)

Selling and administrative expenses       ($159,000)

Operating Income before tax                     $131,000

Income tax at 38%                                       ($49,780)

Net Income                                                   $81,220

Net Cash Flow Calculation :

Operating Income before tax                     $131,000

Add Depreciation Expense                        $116,000

Net Cash flow                                             $247,000

Payback period

Payback period = Year 1 + Year 2

        $487,000  =  $247,000 + $240,000 /   $247,000 × 12

                          =  1 year, 11 months

Therefore, the payback period is 1 year and 11 months .

Accounting Rate of Return = Average Profits / Average Investment  × 100

Where, Average Profits = Sum of Profits ÷ Number of Years

                                       = ($81,220 × 4) ÷ 4

                                       = $81,220

and Average Investment = (Initial Investment + Scrape Value) ÷ 2

                                         = ($487,000 + $23,000) ÷ 2

                                         = $255,000

Therefore, Accounting Rate of Return = $81,220 / $255,000 × 100

                                                               = 31.85 %

Yr1 cashflow ; C01 = 18,000

Yr2 cashflow ; C02 = 18,000

Yr3 cashflow ; C03 = 18,000

Yr4 cashflow ; C04= 18,000

Yr5 cashflow ; C05 = 18,000

Yr6 cashflow ; C06 = 18,000

Yr7 cashflow ; C07 = 18,000

Yr8 cashflow ; C08 = 18,000 +4,000 = 22,000

Required rate of return = 16%

then compute Net present value by keying in NPV, CPT = $4,404.74

All of the following statements regarding leases are true except : A. For a capital lease the lessee records the leased item as
faust18 [17]

Answer: B. Capital leases do not transfer ownership of the asset under the lease, but operating leases often do.

Explanation:

When using Capital Leases, the lessee will record the lease as if it were their own asset and as a result will also depreciate it. The lessee will also create a long term liability on their balance sheet for the asset.

Capital leases usually also involve a transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term. Operating Leases on the other hand do not have these features. They are more like a rental of an asset and as such are recorded as a rental expense in the books of the lessee. The ownership remains with the lessor in an Operating Lease and the asset will be returned once the lease period is over.

Revenues and expenses are transferred to the​ ________ account before their final transfer into the retained earnings account.
slamgirl [31]
<span>D is the correct answer. Income summary is a sort of "catch-all" account that holds both revenues and expenses before recording them as retained earnings. These will then be rectified at the end of the manual accounting period. If there is a net profit or loss for the business, it will be reflected during the accounting period in the income summary.</span>

Calculating the Cost of Equity. Suppose stock in Lululemon Corporation has a beta of 0.80. The market risk premium is 10 percent
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Cost of equity capital can be found by the Capital asset pricing model:

Cost of capital

= Risk free rate + beta * market premium

= 2% + 0.8 * 10%

= 10%

Weighted Average Cost of Capital:

= (weight of debt * after tax cost of debt) + (weight of stock * cost of stock)

= (50% * 8% * ( 1 - 34%)) + (50% * 10%)

= 10.28%
