Answer:

433 units

Explanation:

Information related to production costs are missing, so I looked for it. I found the following:

current sales price = $17

current fixed costs = $7,242

new labor costs per unit = $2.60, which results in a $0.50 increase

new direct materials cost per unit = $5.82, which results in a $1 decrease

total variable costs per unit = $8.42

Baldwin plans to pass 50% of the changes in costs to its customers:

  • Increase $0.25 due to higher labor costs
  • decrease $0.50 due to lower materials costs
  • net change = -$0.25

new sales price = $17 - $0.25 = $16.75

contribution margin per unit = $16.75 - $8.42 = $8.33

break even point in units = total fixed costs / contribution margin per unit = $7,242 / $16.75 = 432.36 = 433 units

noname [10]

Answer:

C) $300 U

Explanation:

Gipple Corporation

Material Quantity Variance = (Actual Quantity Used * Standard Unit Cost )-

( Standard Quantity Used * Standard Unit Cost )

Material Quantity Variance =(AQ* SP) -(SQ*SP)

Material Quantity Variance = (24,870* 6)- ( 7.3* 3400 *6)

Material Quantity Variance = (24,870* 6)- (24,820* 6)

Material Quantity Variance = 149220 - 148920

Material Quantity Variance = $300 Unfavorable

As actual quantity is greater than standard quantity it is unfavorable.

Dividends at FSL are expected grow at a rate of negative 5.4% per year (the dividends are getting smaller). The stock just paid
Crank

Answer:

$21.37

Explanation:

g = -5.4%

D0 = $3.93

D1 = D0 (1+g)

D1 = 3.93*(1-0.054)

D1 = 3.93*0.946

D1 = 3.71778

Investors require a return (ke) of 12%

P0 = D1/(ke - g)

P0 = 3.71778 / (12% - (-5.4%)

P0 = 3.71778 / (12% + 5.4%)

P0 = 3.71778 / 17.4%

P0 = 3.71778 / 0.174

P0 = 21.3665517

P0 = $21.37

So, the expected price of the stock next year is $21.37.

Hollis incorporated owns an office building adjacent to its factory. in approximately 14 months from now, hollis intends to begi
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

When Hollis Inc. uses an 18-month operating cycle, it will classify the office building adjacent to its factory as Property Plant and Equipment. This is because it will start using the office for its internal purposes and hence it can be classified as Property, Plant and Equipment.

However, if Hollis were using a one year operating cycle, it will classify the office building as a long-term investment. This is because the company intends to use this office building for internal purposes only after 14 months - which doesn't fall in the current operating period.

It will classify the building as Property Plant and Equipment in the following year, when it begins using the office building.
