This principle suggests that a certain amount of money today has different buying power than the same amount of money in the fut

ure. This is due to both the opportunity to earn interest on the money and because inflation will drive prices up, thereby changing the ʺvalueʺ of the money.

Answer:

Time value of money

Explanation:

This principle states that money is more valuable at the moment or present than same amount of money in the future due its potential for increase in profit. A person or an investor that wants to make a return or gain will prefer to have the money now than have the same amount of money in the future. This is due to the potential of the money to increase in terms of earning capacity.

5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses
gogolik [260]

Question Completion:

Due to erratic sales of its sole product - a high capacity battery for laptop computers - PEM, Inc., has been experiencing difficulties for some time.  The contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given as follows:

Sales (19,500 units at $30 per unit) $585,000

Variable expenses                              409,500

Contribution margin                             175,500

Fixed expenses                                    180,000

Net operating margin                           ($4,500)

Answer:

PEM, Inc.

a1) New CM ratio = 40%

a2) Break-even point in unit sales and dollars sales

i) Break-even point in unit sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution per unit

= $237,000/$12

= 19,750 units

ii) Break-even point in dollars sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution margin ratio

= $237,000/0.4

= $592,500

b. Contribution format income statements, based on sales of 20,800 units:

                                                             Without                With

                                                         Automation         Automation

Sales (20,800 units at $30 per unit) $624,000    $624,000 (20,800 * $30)

Variable expenses (20,800 at $21)     436,800       374,400 (20,800 * $18)

Contribution margin (20,800 * $9)      187,200       249,600 (20,800 * $12)

Fixed expenses                                    180,000       237,000

Net operating margin                            $7,200       $12,600

c) I would recommend that the company should automate its operations.  It will generate more net operating margin, equal to $5,400 ($12,600 - $7,200), when it automates than when it does not, assuming that it expects to sell 20,800 units.  

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Variable expenses reduction = $3 per unit

Old variable expenses per unit = $21 ($409,500/19,500)

New variable expenses per unit = $18 ($21 - $3)

New variable expenses = $351,000 ($18 * 19,500)

New Contribution Margin per unit = $12 ($30 - $18)

New Contribution margin ratio = $12/$30 * 100 = 0.4 or 40%

Old Fixed Expenses = $180,000

New Fixed Expenses = $237,000 ($180,000 + $57,000)

You write one JNJ February 70 put for a premium of $5. Ignoring transactions costs, what is the break-even price of this positio
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

$65

Explanation:

The calculation of the break even price for this position is given elow:

Break even price is

= Strike price - premium

= $70 - $5

= $65

The stock goes increase i.e. upwards to $65 so the amount that lose is only $5 but it declines than the stock would be $0

Therefore, the break even price of this position is $65

So, by using the above formula we can get the break even price and the same is to be considered

Gaden company sells a product for $50 per unit. Warialbe costs are $40 per unit. Calculate the contribution margin per unit, in
max2010maxim [7]

The Garden company sells a product for $50 per unit. Variable costs are $40 per unit.  50 % of the contribution margin per unit, in total, and as a ratio.

Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit = Contribution margin per unit

50 - 25 = $ 25

Sales - Variable cost = Contribution margin

( 610 * 50 ) - ( 610 * 25 ) = $ 15250

Contribution margin / Sales = Contribution margin ratio

15250 / 30500 = 50%.

Variable costs are directly related to the cost of producing goods and services, whereas fixed costs do not change with the level of production. Variable costs are commonly referred to as COGS, but fixed costs are not usually included in COGS. Fluctuations in sales and production levels can affect variable costs when factors such as sales commissions are included in the unit price of production. On the other hand, fixed costs still have to be paid, even if production slows down significantly.

Automobile repair costs continue to rise with the average cost now at $367 per repair.† Assume that the cost for an automobile r
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

a)  0.1728

b)  0.09183

c) 0.7354

d) $ 222.25

Explanation:

Given

mean = \mu = $367

Standard deviation = \sigma =$88

Cost of automobile repair is normally distributed.

a) We have to find P( x > 450 )

P( x > 450 ) = 1 - P( x <= 450 )

Using excel function,   P( x <= x ) = NORMDIST (x,  \mu, \sigma, 1 )

P( x > 450 )   = 1 - NORMDIST( 450 , 367, 88, 1 )

= 1 - 0.8272 = 0.1728

P( x > 450 ) = 0.1728

b)  P( x < 250 ) = NORMDIST( 250 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.09183

P( x < 250 ) = 0.09183

c) P( 250 < x < 450 ) = P( x <450 ) - P( x < 250 )

P( x <450 ) = NORMDIST( 450 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.8272

P( x < 250 ) = NORMDIST( 250 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.09183

P( 250 < x < 450 ) = 0.8272 - 0.09183 = 0.7354

P( 250 < x < 450 ) = 0.7354

d) We have P( X < a ) = 0.05

We have to find a.

Using Excel, = NORMINV ( Probability, \mu, \sigma )

a = NORMINV ( 0.05 , 367, 88 ) = 222.2529

Cost = $ 222.25
