1. Bart Simpson, Inc., is considering the possibility of building an additional factory that would produce a new addition to its

product line. The company is currently considering two options. The first is a small facility that it could build at a cost of $6 million. If demand for new products is low, the company expects to receive $10 million in discounted revenues (present value of future revenues) with the small facility. On the other hand, if demand is high, it expects $12 million in discounted revenues using the small facility. The second option is to build a large factory at a cost of $9 million. Were demand to be low, the company would expect $10 million in discounted revenues with the large plant. If demand is high, the company estimates that the discounted revenues would be $14 million. In either case, the probability of demand being high is 0.40, and the probability of it being low is 0.60. Not constructing a new factory would result in no additional revenue being generated because the current factories cannot produce these new products. Construct a decision tree to help Bart Simpson make the best decision.

Answer:

Three cases are considered: First case is to construct a small factory, second is to construct a large factory and third is to do nothing.

Construct a Small Facility is the most suitable option from the business perspective which makes case 1 recommended.

Explanation:

Case 1 - Construct a small facility

Return = [P(High Demand) x Revenue in case of High Demand] + [P(Low Demand) x Revenue in case of Low Demand] - Cost of Setup

= [ 0.4 x 12 ] + [ 0.6 x 10 ] - 6 = $ 4.8 million

Case 2 - Construct a Large Facility

Return = [P(High Demand) x Revenue in case of High Demand] + [P(Low Demand) x Revenue in case of Low Demand] - Cost of Setup

= [0.4 x 14] + [0.6 x 10] - 9 = $ 2.6 million

Case 3 - Do Nothing

Return = 0

Job sharing

Explanation:

Job sharing here is a technique whereby the two people share a full-time job responsibilities into a part-time roster to finish off the job one person has been doing in a single full-time job.

Assume Karen is 12 years old and her only income is $2,500 of interest income from a bank account with money her parents have gi
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Since Karen is a minor, she can receive up to $950 in unearned income per year without paying taxes or having to file a tax return.

Since she receives a larger amount $2,500 - $950 = $1,550, she must pay taxes for the extra amount depending on which type of account her parents opened for her.

  1. Karen's parents probably opened a 529 Education Savings Plan, and if that is the case, she doesn't need to pay any federal taxes.
  2. If Karen's parents opened her a custodial account, then she will have to pay taxes for the $1,550 above the $950 threshold. Minors are responsible for filing their own taxes or their parents can file taxes for them. If either Karen or her parents pay taxes, they should pay = $1,550 x 10% = $155

Sunland, Inc. has 3600 shares of 5%, $50 par value, cumulative preferred stock and 72000 shares of $1 par value common stock out
alex41 [277]

Answer:

$15,000 and $17,000

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

But before that we have to determine the total dividend of preference stock i.e

= 3,600 shares × 5% × 50%

= $9,000

Now the 3,100 is paid, so the remaining amount is

= $9,100 - $3,100

= $6,000

So the total dividend paid to preference shareholders is

= $9,000 + $6,000

= $15,000

And for common shareholders, it is

= $17,000 - $15,000

= $2,000
