Answer: The Goodwill is $7,000,000

Explanation:

$

Purchase price. 38,000,000

Less:

Fair value of asset 48,000,000

Less: Fair value of liabilities 17,000,000

-----------------------

Fair value of net Asset. 31,000,000

---------------------

Goodwill. 7,000,000

-------------------------

Workings

Fair value of Asset = Current Asset + Property, plant and equipment + Other asset

= 14,800,000 + 30,000,000 + 3,200,000

= 48,000,000

Fair value of Liabilities = Current Liability + Long term Liability

= 6,600,000 + 10,400,000

= 17,000,000

Answer:

$7 million

Explanation:

Make Adjustments between the Book Values and the Fair Values

                                             All values are in $Million(s)

                              Book Value      Fair Value         Adjusted

Current Assets         11.8                    14.8                    3

Fixed Assets             24                     30                      6

Other Assets            2.2                     3.2                     1

Current Liabilities    (6.6)                   (6.6)                   (0)

LT Liabilities             (11.4)                  (10.4)                   1

Equity                        20                     31                       11

Now, we would calculate the excess purchase price which is the difference between the $38 million paid by Mainline Produce Corporation in order to acquire Iceberg Lettuce Corporation and the net book value of the assets

Excess purchase price = 38 - 20 = $18 million

Goodwill = Excess purchase price - Fair value adjustments

               = $18 million - $11 million

             = $7 million

The goodwill paid is $7 million

Anettt [7]

The current lot size of 235 is too large.

We use the given data to find the Economic Order Quantity or EOQ and then compare it to the lot size of 235.

Economic Order Quantity is used to arrive at the optimum purchase order for goods (in number of units) while minimizing ordering and handling costs.

The formula for calculating EOQ is:

Q = \sqrt{2DS/H},

where :

Q is the order lot in number of units

D is the annual demand for the product

S is ordering cost per order (in $)

H is holding cost per unit (in $)

We can arrive at the annual demand for the product as follows:

Annual Demand = No. of units sold per week * No. of weeks the store operates

Annual Demand = 50*52 = 2600 units

Order cost = $20

Holding Cost = Holding Cost (in %) * Selling Price

Holding Cost = 20%*$40 = $8

Substituting the above values in the EOQ formula, we get,

Q = \sqrt{(2*2600*20)/8} = 114.02 units.

Comparing the EOQ we just calculated and the given lot size, we arrive at the answer above.

A firm with unlimited funds must evaluate five projects. Projects 1 and 2 are independent and Projects 3, 4, and 5 are mutually
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

4, 1, 2,

Explanation:

Here are the projects and their returns

Project Return (%)

1 14

2 12

3 10

4 15

5            12

the firm should choose the project with the highest returns

Projects are mutually exclusive if the projects cannot occur at the same time. If one project is chosen, the others cannot be chosen.

Project 3,4,5 are mutually exclusive. If one of the projects are chosen, other projects cannot be chosen.

Project 4 has the highest return, so it would be chosen first.

the next project with the next highest return is project 1 and then project 2
