Fish Fillet Incorporated obtains fish and then processes them into frozen fillets and then prepares the frozen fish fillets for

distribution to its retail sales department. Direct materials are added at the initiation of the cycle. Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the production cycle. Before inspection, some fillets are spoiled due to nondetectible defects. Inspection occurs when units are 100% completed. Spoiled fillets generally constitute 3.5% of the good fillets.
Data for April 2013 are as follows:

WIP, beginning inventory 4/1/2013 40,000 fillets
Direct materials (100% complete)
Conversion costs (50% complete)
Started during April 75,000 fillets
Completed and transferred out 4/31/2013 100,000 fillets
WIP, ending inventory 431/2013 8,000 fillets
Direct materials (100% complete)
Conversion costs (20% complete)
Costs for April:
WIP, beginning Inventory:
Direct materials $55,000
Conversion costs 40,000
Direct materials added 145,100
Conversion costs added 188,065

Required:
a) What is the number of total spoiled units? Normal spoilage totals? Abnormal spoilage totals?
b) Compute the equivalent units for both direct materials and conversion costs using the weigh average method of process costing? What is the total cost per equivalent unit? Show computations.
c) How much costs are assigned to cost of goods manufactured and cost of ending inventory of work in process? Show computations.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Cost of equity is 11.2%

WACC is 8.74%

Explanation:

The formula for cost of equity is given below:

Cost of equity=risk free rate+(Beta *risk premium)

risk free rate is the treasury bill rate of 4%

Beta is 0.9

market risk premium is 8%

cost of equity=4%+(0.9*8%)=11.2%

WACC=Ke*E/V+Kd*D/V*(1-t)

Ke is the cost of equity of 11.2%

Kd is the cost of debt of 5%

t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

E is the equity weighting of 70% or 0.7

D is the debt weighting of 30% or 0.3

V is the E+D=0.7+0.3=1

WACC=11.20% *0.7/1+(5%*0.3/1*(1-0.4)

WACC=7.84% +0.90% =8.74%

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

The <u>nominal</u> interest rate is quoted by borrowers and lenders-------------

then you <u>can</u> use the APR------------

different compounding periods, then the effective annual rate must------

If a loan or investment uses <u>annual</u> compounding, then the nominal--------

However, if compounding occurs more than once a year, EAR is the effective INOM

Quantitative problem:

Effective annual rate of Bank 2 (assuming its APR is 6%) = (1.015)^4 – 1 = 0.061364

To get the same EAR, Bank 1 should charge per half year 1.061364^(1/2) – 1 = 0.030225

The nominal interest rate (APR)= 0.030225*2 = 0.06045 = 6.05%

In order to achieve a competitive advantage, Coastal Haven Hotels, a chain of luxury beach resorts, wants to increase its market
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. Take advantage of economies of scale and scope by opening a chain of lower priced economy hotels that leverage the Coastal Haven brand image.

Explanation:

The economy of scale refers to the power that a company has when it reaches an optimum level of production to produce more at a lower cost, that is, as production in a company grows, its costs per unit produced are reduced. The more it produces, the less it costs to produce each unit.

In other words, it means that if in a production function the quantity of all inputs used is increased by one percentage, the output produced can increase by that same percentage or increase by greater or lesser amount than the same percentage. If it increases by the same percentage, we would be faced with constant economies of scale, if it were in more, they would be growing economies of scale, if it were in less, in decreasing economies of scale.

In microeconomics, economy of scale is understood as the advantages in terms of costs that a company obtains thanks to the expansion and good synergies that it has applied to its competitive environment .

The concept of "economies of scale" serves for the long term, and refers to reductions in unit cost as the size of an installation and the levels of input utilization increase. The usual sources of economies of scale are the inventory (large-scale purchase of materials through long-term contracts), management and logistics (increasing the specialization of managers), financial (obtaining lower interest costs in bank financing), marketing and technology (benefiting of the scale yields in the production function).

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

B. Flattened management hierarchies.

Explanation:

In this scenario, the line workers at a Virginia steel mill developed a new process that made the line safer. The process went through only one level of management before it was approved by the vice president of operations. Hence, this is an example of a flattened management hierarchies.

A flattened management hierarchy can be defined as an organizational structure which eliminates a middle manager and allows the employees to be involved directly with the decision-making process.

Hence, by the removal of the middle management in an organization, the flattened management hierarchy creates a direct relationship between employees and the top executives of the company; thus, giving room for innovation and actions by employees in the decision-making process.
